The fabulous photographer for the day was our great friend the brilliant at James Jebson he was capturing all of the magic whilst I was introducing everyone to their perfumed blooms
It is always such a joy to work with great friends, I count my blessings for this every single day and Saturday was no exception, so here I am with the brilliant Kerry Baker MUA and the super lovely James Jebson

Jason and I headed off to St Thomas' Church in St Annes
We framed the internal door with two of our fragrant Bay Trees, each one dressed with Socks and Roses
Inside this beautiful Church we'd dressed the ceremony space with two spectacular pedestal designs of Delphiniums, Hydrangeas, Astilbe, trails of Ivy, Koala Fern, Kangaroo Paw, Eucalyptus and plumes of exquisite Phalaenopsis Orchids
Posies of scented Sweet Peas, Roses and Hydrangeas decorated the end of each alternate Pew lining the aisle
