English Garden

As I’m sure you know my now, my signature style is based around the idea of hosting a beautiful wedding celebration in the surroundings of a gorgeous English garden, with an abundance of greenery and blousy blooms and lots of soft, feminine touches. I put together this inspiration board a little while ago for some clients, and thought I would share it with you today, as I love the colour palette and the softness of the textures used.

This concept began with the image of the secret garden gate with the most amazing leafy and floral canopy, and I wanted to bring some of those elements into a luxury marquee wedding hosted within a lovely walled garden. I’ve used a colour palette of soft sage and olive greens, blended with a scallop blush and soft lavender grey, with an ivory base. These colours work like a dream together, and allow the overall design to have a softer feel but still keep a little depth.

Planning a wedding at home can have its challenges, but it’s the perfect setting to host a special celebration, and often allows much more flexibility and freedom than a venue may allow. 50% of my clients tend to host their wedding at home in Oxfordshire or the Cotswolds, and they have been some of my favourite projects over the years. I will share another blog post on tips for getting married at home later this year, but in the meantime, do get in touch if you’re planning to host your wedding celebrations at home and would like to enquire about my planning services.
