Bicycle built for two

The Flourist finally got to do a wedding that featured decorating two of our favourite things...a bicycle and a mini cooper ;)

We booked this December wedding quite early on, though some of the details were only finalised closer to the date of the wedding. It was fantastic to be back in the swing of things again, after the short baby break.

The theme was purple and white, and the bride and groom wanted a country look for their wedding. So we used simple heart shaped frame with orchids for pew ends, and tall arrangements for the altar. With the colour theme, we used a lot of orchids for this wedding - from the accessories to the church decoration. The altar arrangements had to be tall to be seen - so we used the idea of a hand bouquet of orchids and adapted it for a vase arrangement. We tinted the water for the altar arrangements to make sure it was in theme...



The wedding was at a church on Tanglin Road, and had an interior decor with wood panelling and wooden pews with plush seats that went well with the country theme. Add to that a bicycle out the front to greet guests at the wedding - the country quirk was perfect. We had such a lot of fun decorating this wedding! For the bicycle we used purple brassica (the cabbage looking flower) and lots of little daisies - the idea was to have a just picked look for the bicycle. We then decked it with ribbon in case the bride and groom decided to use it as their get away vehicle ;)

The only departure from the purple country scene was of course the bridal car... but I love the mini cooper, and obviously so did the couple and it was their day - so who cares if the red clashed with the purple...we simple left out the purple for the car, and used white gerbera daisies and roses and lots of green to make the flowers pop.
