to symbolise new life and fertility so what better way to start your married life with flowers adorning your special day.
The flowers chosen for your special day can transform your wedding and wedding venue. Together with the colours chosen and the smell, (if you are opting for real flowers) is delightful and can really set off those good vibes in everyone as well as brighten and light up rooms and venues.
Amazing centre pieces for each table will cause a talking point with your guests and you can even gift them for one person on each table at the end of the day by having a small card in an envelope in their seat place.
