Green, white and blue wedding flower arrangement(3)
Gay Corran – West Lulworth – 2008

I recently did the flowers for my daughter’s Civil Partnership ceremony, service of blessing and feast, which were held in the Great Room, Queen’s House, Greenwich. This magnificent setting, with its black and white marble floor and huge windows needs strong colours and shapes for the decorations: delicate effects would be completely lost. The girls didn’t want anything too “bridey”, as they were dressed in elegantly slim cocktail dresses in midnight blue and forest green, overlaid with light-catching sparkles. Candles are forbidden in the building, and the table arrangements had to be brought up from Dorset on the day, both of which set further problems of which style of arrangements and flowers to choose.

Fortunately, the girlsClick here to find out which flowers were used liked the idea of using peacock feathers, and agreed that the flower colours should use lighter tones of their dresses: peacock shades heightened with white. They liked the idea of using glass cylinder vases filled with coloured glass “crushed ice”, on black plinths with up lighters set on round mirror bases for the circular tables, with narrow fan-shaped arrangements for the Orangery window sills.

Then came the fun of choosing the flowers. Here, the Flowers4Florists website was ideal: very clearly set out, beautifully photographed and briefly described flowers, well priced; it was easy to make the decisions. I ordered white roses and lisianthus, blue iris, lime green curly chrysanths and lime green lisianthus, with “lucky bamboo” twisty stems to counteract any lingering superstition about using peacock feathers.

They arrived on the chosen day in perfect condition, just ready to spring open. They were easy to transport, once arranged in their cylinders, and to carry up the steps into Queen’s House, where they looked superb. We had to remove them from the building the same evening, and they spent the next five days in the back of my car in a car park near Stansted.

When I got them back to Dorset they lasted for a further three weeks in excellent condition. Three months later the bamboo stems are still looking wonderful, sprouting leaves and forming the basis for many subsequent arrangements, including our forthcoming four – day music festival.

I plan to use Flowers4Florists for all my future flower celebration projects and recommend them very highly for the friendly, efficient service given on both the website and the ‘phone.
