An outdoor vintage office...

I had such a lovely evening a few weeks ago with the always amazing photographer Jade Alana, styling this gorgeous little shoot for Carmen Weddings. Carmen Yuen-Stevenson offers a boutique wedding planning service for brides throughout the UK. Having recently created a brand new website...which is beautiful...Carmen wanted me to create an outdoor, vintage style office to reflect her style and services for the new site. I think Jade's images are incredible and captured everything I envisioned for the shoot...Carmen looks stunning and I wish her all the best in her business. So here are some of my favourite images...isn't this sign amazing??...custom made by Cherry Pie Lane...

I put together some old furniture that I have to create the office including some vintage drawers that I was recently given, which were perfect for this shoot!

I adore this soft bouquet of pale pink astilbe...

My dream office would look like this...an organised chaos of lovely bits and bobs tumbling out of drawers...and a field for inspiration!!

Carmen also asked me to create a little wedding table to compliment the pink and brown theme of her new website...so here's what I came up with...

I used a gorgeous mixture of pale pink roses, astilbe, dahlias and orchids with rich cotinus foliage in vintage cream containers...

I also created a cute little fence around the table of vintage style bunting that I made for a recent wedding...

Jade discovered these amazing blue doors which were a perfect backdrop for these final images...

Thanks to Jade for her amazing pictures and to Carmen for being such a beautiful model!

One day I want a camera that will do this...!!

As promised here are some gorgeous, dreamy photos of bouquets and arrangements I made for the Stancliffe Hall wedding open day  by the always amazing Jade of Jade Alana Photography. If you're still looking for a photographer for your wedding, I can't recommend Jade enough...she always inspires and amazes me!! Thanks to Emma, her second shooter, for modelling for us...I draw the line at doing that!!

Here I paired huge fluffy white hydrangea heads with white cherry blossom from my garden in a white urn vase...I was very disappointed when I got home as my husband immediately removed the cherry blossom and threw it out complaining about hayfever!! Whatever happened to taking one for the team!! Oh well, it looks pretty in the photos!

I used simple jam jars to display peach roses and pink ranunculus for a country garden style feel...makes me want to make home-made lemonade and bunting!!

Soft pink roses with a brown satin handle and cameo style brooch...love these photos so much...

I love the mix of rich colours in this bouquet...deep burgundy and deep pink roses, pale pink spray roses and purple callas finished with a deep pink satin handle and diamantes. 

Hope you feel inspired! Happy Monday!
