What a Weekend!!!
Saturday March 28 was one of those days that you just knew the skates had to be on from from the very start of the day. The morning starting off with the delivery and set up at 8 am at The Ballroom at Victoria Park Golf Club for the wedding of Jacki and Craig. The tables arrangements due to their size and nature had to be constructed on site on the day of the wedding. To say they were impressive as you walked in was what we were after. The WOW factor was the specification. The vases themselves were almost a meter high in height to which the arrangement was done in. Massed twisted willow came from the centre of the vase with leather fern as a skirt at the top of the vase with 15 stems of very long white wedding singapore cascading from the top. This job required the help from my husband. He just kept filling the 11 vases with litres of water in readiness for me to to place the arrangements. The cake top of white tulips was left for the finishing touches to be put onto the cake by Sarah Jane of Cake That. I only hope there were enough white tulips for her to do her magic with.!!!
After an hour and a half were finished then it was off to Indooroopily Golf Club for the reception table set up for Elizabeth and Lucas's wedding. An easier set up this was as I had already prepared the candelabra centre pieces in advance and we just had to set them in place on the tables. The bridal table has a lively arrangement of white asiatic lilies to match in with the tables. A cake top of several open white roses was again left for Sharon of A Cake to Remember to add to her masterpiece.
Next saw us dashing off to the Rendevous Hotel in the city for placed of buttonholes for Lucas and the boys and a handbag corsages Lucas's mum and grandmother.
A quick dash back to the workroom saw me load up the rest of the afternoons deliveries. Elizabeth and the girls were getting ready at Annerley and here the hairdresser was waiting to finish her magic on the girls with hair flowers. It was great to run into Sonia of Sterling Studios again as she was photographer of the day. Again buttonholes and handbag corsage were in place and i was off again.
Next stop was to Jacki and her party at The Stamford Hotel in the city for her bouquets. The room was full of laughter and tears and the girls looked stunning in their chocolate brown dresses and how amazing did Jacki look!! The tulips were a beautiful addition to their outfits. I had the pleasure of seeing Rhiannon ( one of the bridesmaid's and also Jacki's sister in law now whose wedding bouquet i did last year. It is always great to catch up with past brides.
Next stop was to St Augustines Church at Hamilton for the finishing touches to the church. Twenty beautiful ivory organza bow lined the isle pews along with a spray of baby's breath each. It just added the fairytale touch. Craig and the boys had their buttonholes added before being whisked off to be photographed. It was great to wait and see the wedding unfold before removing the pew bows and flowers and transporting the little bunches of flowers back to Victoria Park before the day was finished. Another hectic but exciting day.
