We have had such a fabulous time working with these two gorgeous folks, after our first meeting we planned to get together at the brilliant Piccolino's in Clitheroe, we'd never been there before so it seemed important to get a good feel for the atmosphere of place, we weren't disappointed, it's a great venue with a great team, we received such a warm welcome and enjoyed ur meeting enormously.
Alison & Oliver brought along their mood board and we worked through a plan for the designs we intended to create.![]()
Inspired by both the mood board and the venue we arranged to get together again so that we could present a set of sample designs for Alison & Oliver.
Alison's sample wedding bouquet included white Peonies, Blush O'Hara Roses with Senecio, Olive, Eucalyptus, Rosemary, Albiflora, Dancing Grasses and Snowflake Roses
For Oliver we'd made a seriously Red 'Piano' Rose with Olive, Rosemary & Eucalyptus, as Oliver would be wearing a dinner suit it would need to be fixed with a magnet so as not to mark the jacket
The tables were narrow trestle tables so for the sample we arranged a series of glass vessels with posies of fresh Olive, Eucalyptus, Peonies and Roses with a some tea light votives
For the top table we decided upon a waterfall style design with a plethora of of Italian foliages and fresh Italian flowers
At long last the big day arrived and Jason and Chloe had the huge pleasure of presenting the Bridal bouquets to our gorgeous Bride and her Bridesmaids

Fresh Garlands of Foliages and Gypsophilia framed the entrance
