I haven’t updated my blog for ages as I’ve been busy with
floristry work and studies. Ok, there’s another reason too – I got engaged on
Easter Sunday, which was the day after I wrote my last post! It’s been a
wonderful whirlwind the last couple of months. So far, we’ve booked the
ceremony and afternoon reception, the photographer, and have meetings booked
with the dress designer and the cake maker. I love the planning process and
researching for ideas for decorations, music, readings. I don’t need to tell
you that I’d decided on the flowers before the dress – the scents and flower
meanings are just as important to us as the colours and types of flowers. And I
also probably don’t need to tell you that David Austin roses are going to
feature heavily.
Expect a lot of wedding-related posts over the next year!
Here is a photo of one of the giant eggs that featured in the Faberge
Big Egg Hunt in London over Easter – I found this at Canary Wharf just moments
after my boyfriend phoned me to say he had been offered a job in London (we’ve
been doing the long distance thing ever since we met). It was the week before
we got engaged. The egg is called ‘Love’ by Louise Dear…it felt like a pretty
cool coincidence.
