Your Yorkshire Wedding - May/June 2020 (Issue 42)

FLOWERS 39 PICK OF THE  Beautiful blooms in every colour Flowers and weddings have always gone hand in hand, but unless you have green fingers the choice of blooms can be overwhelming. We chose three different colour schemes and asked some of Yorkshire’s best florists how they would make them pop.

Tall vases with big pretty florals make for timeless venue styling.” – Georgina Tillotson, Mrs Bouquets Floristry & Event Styling “Bouquets could be a simple hand- tied arrangement of delicate pink and ivory roses mixed with hydrangeas, veronica, lisianthus, thalespi, peonies and fragrant stocks. Table decor could be simple jars filled with single stem flowers on rustic log slices.” – Jackie Axe and Margaret Bucknall, The Flower Shop South Elmsall “Try bringing in soft tuberose, pale roses, light pink astilbe, white astrantia and pink wax flower teamed with subtle grey foliage.” – Vanessa Wellock, Wildflowers “Can you beat pastel tones? Ranunculus is a perfect flower for these shades, and couples are loving anemones right now. Muscari, narcissus and tulips just scream spring.” – Emma Turner, The Petal Studio “For this feminine look keep the bouquet loose and natural. Pastel shades look sensational when you go beyond the traditional pink. Protea pink ice are a rich shade that work amazingly with soft peach roses and lots of foliage for a natural spring-like feel.” – Gillian Neild, Where Bees Meet Springtime pastels
