Last weekend we were back at One Whitehall Place for a beautiful Spring inspired wedding.

We used seasonal flowers throughout – Apple Blossom, parrot Tulips, fragrant Narcissi and pure white Hyacinths, ivory Roses and scented Freesia with accents of very pale pink Ranunculi and bright green Guelder Rose. Masses of pillar candles, petals and lily of the valley scented nite lites gave a truly magical effect at this wonderful venue

Mother’s Day

A very important date is fast approaching – Sunday March 14th, Mothers’ Day. A perfect time to think of Mothers, spend time with them if possible and if we can’t do that, make sure that we remember them with a card, present or a beautiful bunch of flowers.

With our UK delivery network, we can send flowers to your mother wherever she lives.

Just give Liz a call on 07973 601045 or email here, tell us what you would like to send and say, and it will be done.

Bouquet prices are £25, £35 or £45 and will comprise a mix of Roses, Lilies, Freesia, Tulips and foliage or if she has green fingers, she might like a beautiful potted orchid (any colour) from £25-£35.

Another treat for a mum who likes her tea and cake would be a trip to our favourite cake shop, Bake-a-Boo, in NW London for a special Mother’s Day breakfast or tea. Book at www.bake-a-boo.com

We have a stall outside the shop on Saturday so you can pick up some flowers in person

10% from every bouquet sold for Mother’s Day will be donated to Breast Cancer Care

We are now well into the wedding season with a couple more weddings coming up at the end of this month. The first is at Pendley Manor in Hertfordshire www.pendley-manor.co.uk and the second is back at One Whitehall Place.

The wedding open day at OWP last weekend had a very good turnout despite the rubbish weather and football on the tv! We spoke to a lot of brides and are getting together a variety of ideas for their weddings during 2010 and into next year too.

We dressed the venue with a mix of table displays in shades of pink – from old antique parchment coloured Roses through to palest pink Astrantia. We had tall flute vases and slender lily vases both topped with generous balls of mixed flowers such as Stock, Amnesia Roses, Astrantia and Lisianthus. We also had some interesting low displays with white super parrot Tulips in black lampshades, dark burgundy Baccara roses and striking puffs of acid green Guelder Rose sitting on delicate glass cake stands.
