THE
BRIEF

Our bride and groom were keen to create a timeless and elegant white wedding design at the iconic Cliveden House Hotel in Berkshire.  The bride adored crisp white flowers and wanted to use English cut foliage to result in a truly British wedding look.

Despite it being the start of October, both the bride and groom were hopeful that they would be able to host their dream wedding ceremony outdoors.  The dinner was then to be held in the Andre Garrett Dining Room on two long tables that worked with the proportions of the room.

The Final Creation

Working with revered wedding planner Kristina Kempton, we imagined the most beautiful double moongate ceremony design using large custom-created rings filled with English greens and the most luxurious white wedding flowers.  Running along the aisle on either side, floral meadows, expressive by nature and hugely impactful ensured the final finish was totally unforgettable.  Rich in detail, we used a romantic combination of white wedding flowers including dahlias, white avalanche roses, euphorbia and ammi.  Overlooking the incredible parterre gardens at Cliveden House, this ceremony really had the perfect backdrop for the most unforgettable wedding celebration.

 

The same wedding palette was enjoyed at the front of Cliveden House where giant floral urn designs welcomed guests to the impressive hotel.

The wedding breakfast, hosted in the Cliveden Dining Room was transformed with a white carpet before chic golden tables with silver mirror table tops were added.  White wedding florals ran along the centre of the tables and created the most understated yet impactful setting.  Contemporary flatware, crystal candle accessories and gold cutlery were all combined to offer a timeless yet luxurious wedding design.

 

Keeping the flowers low on the dining tables to ensure all guests had an uninterrupted dining experience, we added a theatrical floral arrangement to the fireplace and large urns in the corners of the room with floral cascades that tumbled to the floor.  It wouldn’t be a Larry Walshe production if we didn’t add an extra moment of drama and impact!
