I’ve been catching up on a bit of blog reading over the last few days, and I’m loving some of the real weddings that are coming out of the States at the moment. The first one that really caught my eye was
this

Spring is definitely my favourite season for flowers. With so many different colours, textures and shapes I always find myself brimming with design ideas at this time of year – from
vibrant sunshine yellow
to delicate
cherry blossom pink
, there are so many different styles you can go for.
I would always recommend using flowers that are in season at the time of your wedding. They’re more readily available and can often be sourced locally, meaning they’re less expensive and also more eco-friendly. Check out some of my favourite spring blooms that are just perfect for weddings…
