Lisa | Rowallan Castle | Spring

Hello blog!

It has been a very, VERY long time.  Apologies, the flowers have been demanding all our attention this year, but we are not complaining when they have been as pretty as this lovely wedding back in the Spring that we are sharing with you today.

Lisa and her girl friends chose the best in the business to take care of hair and make up, Anne Marie McElroy and Julie Duplacito and they worked their magic in the beautiful Tour House.

It was then off to Rowallan Castle which we filled with highly scented seasonal Magnolia, Blossom and Viburnum and warmed the air with pillar candles in storm lanters.  Just lovely.

You can see more of this wedding on Love My Dress, with the dreamiest of images by our Wedding Collective chums Craig & Eva Sanders.

Kim | Cottiers

Happy New Year you flowery bunch!  Hope you all had a lovely time over the festive period.  And a huge hello to all our new recently engaged ladies, welcome to our world.

A lot of our time has been spent over the past few weeks resting, reflecting and drinking Raspberry Gin.  It has been lovely.  But we are now strarting to look ahead at another flower filled year and planning what to grow in the cuttings gardens and what wonderful pieces we are going to create for some really beautiful weddings.

Today, we are looking back at Kim’s beautiful wedding which took place in August at Cottiers.  Kim themed her wedding around “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and the soft, romantic florals we created were supported by antlers, vines and local ferns.

A Wedding Collective dream team were on hand to help create Kim’s vision, with Anne Marie McElroy on hair, Julie Duplacito on make up and Craig & Eva Sanders behind the lens.

Ruth, Blairquhan Castle

What a miserable, wet time we are all having at the moment!  Time to fire up the wood burner, pop some scones in the oven, and start to reflect what has been an incredible year of weddings for us here at Myrtle & Bracken.

We have clocked up over 17,000 miles travelling the length and breadth of the country, flowering up beautiful spaces along the way.  We have worked with some really lovely clients and we are so grateful to be invited to play a part in a really special time for them and their friends and families.  We have also been getting to grips with our first growing season for our cutting garden, and are really loving living and working in tandem with the seasons.  Although it has been wet.  Very wet!

So today we are thinking back to a hot sunny day in June, when Ruth and Paul had the loveliest romantic wedding at Blairquhan Castle.

Scented flowers were the order of the day, with home grown Stock, Sweet Peas, Oregano and Mint.  Add in some David Austin Juliet roses, and the castle was filled with the delicate garden scent of summer.  We loved draping the staircase in wildy romantic garlands, framing Ruths entrance to marry her beau.  Lovely.

Craig and Eva Sanders were there to capture all the romance, thank you so much for allowing us to share these dreamy images.

Sigh.
