I have been looking forward to this wedding for nearly two years, I first met Marion & Mark at Lytham Hall when we were involved in their open day, I was lucky enough to show these two lovely people around the Hall, at this point they hadn't decided upon a date or a venue, they thankfully fell in love with Lytham Hall at first viewing and as they say...the rest is history...
So Marion, Sarah & Leanne were all ready (apart from the frocks) when I arrived to present their bridal bouquets...
We did the little FD wedding bouquet holding lesson
Marion and her girls are all so petite, so when we were designing her bridal bouquet, we decided on lots of really dainty blooms; Lily of the Valley, Sweet Peas, Stephanotis, Miniature Rose buds, Freesia and Mini Peonies, as you'll see later Marion was wearing a fabulous gown so the bouquet needed to be in proportion and with such grand venues at St John's and Lytham Hall it was essential that the bouquet wasn't too diminutive.
I loved the range of pinks and the delicacy of the flower choice, perfect for the lovely Marion

The Groom's lovely Mum Elizabeth's corsage of David Austin's Darcy Rose, Freesia and Rose buds, it's fragrance was delicious 
Mark looking seriously handsome
Discussing with the fabulous organist various Irish tunes he intended to play during the signing of the register, he played "Londonderry Air" so exquisitely!

How chilled do these two look
The two lovely Mum's
Michael from Fresh Photography was so lovely all day, keeping everyone relaxed and calm, can't wait to see his images, I'm certain they'll be fabulous!
Roland & Linda just happened to be sat on the bench outside church at 2:25 and thought they'd just stay to see the bride arrive (the wedding was at 2:30 and they were still waiting at 3:10) and we all decided that it was well worth the wait though when she finally arrived at 3:15 looking totally stunning!

First though the Bridesmaids arrival...
The Bridesmaid's were just gorgeous, a vision in pink.
The Bridesmaids Bouquets were in shades of pale pink and deep pink with highlights in ivory, I used Sweet Peas, Roses and Freesia
