scottish flowers

Back in September, we had our first visit to The Lodge on Loch Goil and what a beautiful sunny day it turned out to be. We did a last minute installation down on the pebbled beach and created a freestanding piece, tumbling down from a large Copper Beech as it was just too beautiful a day not to get married outside.

Our Bride Sarah, lives close to David Austin Roses so we accented all the Scottish late summer flowers with Patience, Juliet and Beartice. For dinner, we created a rambling tablescape with a touch of wildness. Lovely.

Thanks to one of our favourite photography duos Criag & Eva Saunders for capturing all the romance, and Asteria Bridal were also on hand to create the perfect beauty.

I can’t tell you how MUCH I love elopements. And when they look like this one, it is easy to see why.

We got an emergency request for flowers late one Friday afternoon in October from Chelsea, who had travelled from the States to elope with her beau the following day. We gathered what was best from our cutting gardens, and Mr Myrtle & Bracken hopped through to Balfron the following morning to save the day.

Chelsea and Jac wandered deep into the woods of Loch Lomond National Park to exchange their vows in an emotional and atmospheric ceremony, all beautifully captured by Melissa Marshall. Follow Melissa’s stunning work on Instagram and be sure to check out her signature hashtag #forthewildyinlove

Oh, and more veils please.
