and the bride wore lace

The Flourist did a wedding last weekend - it was to be the sweetest wedding so far.

The bride is Malaysian, and the groom a charming lad from Manchester (yes they do make them charming out there). Theirs was a courtship of 5 yrs (yes yes not quite as long as me and D)
and finally they set a date for June (which incidentally happened to be her best friend's wedding anniversary) - so cool right!!!
M looked absolutley moviestar-ish in her lovely lace wedding gown with the killer lace inspired heels, and R so dashing in his suit - certainly cleaned up good - not bad for a shopping trip that lasted about 20 mins!!!

As the bride lives in the UK, her bestfriend and I worked rather closely to arrange things for the wedding - from changing the layout of the ballroom set up, to drapery over the stage and deciding on the decorations.

The theme was white and green, but of course the bridesmaid had to get a teal dress - so i included pink in the wedding accessories (oooh but the teal dress was loverly! and she is allowed to lah after all she is a pretty little thing ;) )

I used lisianthus and eucalyptus leaves, cymbidium  and dendrobium orchids, and cyprus brooms - and the most interesting of all was the inclusion of the succulent cactus in the bouquet and the main table arrangements.
i was so pleased with the effects - esp after trawling sungai buluh garden shops for the right kind ;).

i created hanging decorations from hula hoops and paper - and hung baubles from them - they were so lovely slowly turning from the draft of the vents - lovely lovely lovely - next time I must do more I think - or at least make them a little longer perhaps.
thanks to my little helpers for climbing on the scaffolding to get these all hung up.
candles everywhere and low lighting - sooooo befitting the romance and love at this wedding.

congratulations mr and mrs H.

Again these are my lame photographic attempts just before I ran out the door before the guests arrived... professional ones as soon as i get it ;)

the pillars had banana leaves around them with cyprus broom and tuber roses


these were in the cocktail foyer





these were at the entrance to the ballroom while the circular designs were inside the ballroom hanging over the dance floor and tables


this was the main table arrangement

AA if I EVER decide I found someone worthy to marry - you and my sis are on the cards for the planners but don't hold your breath though :)
