Flower Ideas for your Outdoor Wedding AisleThere are dozens of different ways to style your outdoor aisle with wedding flowers, and recently we showcased a number of different options at Silchester House in order to give you ideas and inspiration when it comes to planning the floral décor at your own outdoor wedding.
Large jars filled with a mixture of pink and peach roses and bright green alchemilla mollis hung with pastel coloured ribbon from shepherd’s crooks secured in to the ground. However, if you prefer to walk own the aisle with twinkly candles on either side, hanging white lanterns could be an alternative option. Large hurricane lantern lining the aisle are also a popular choice but to enhance the look – jars on the grass, dotted between each lantern could complete your outdoor wedding style.
For a special treat, why not come along to one of our Christmas Wreath Making Workshops. Come alone and join other wreath makers, or bring along a friend or two.
Froyle Park is a beautiful country estate in Upper Froyle, Nr. Alton, Hampshire. The gorgeous manor house is set in 80 acres of glorious parkland, and is a picturesque venue for your wedding. Here are a couple of photographs from last weekends wedding.
Last weekends bride and groom were trying to dodge the rain and make a decision whether to have their wedding inside or outside. At Froyle Park you have the choice of a ceremony in the Great Hall with this magnificent staircase, or outside under the gazebo with views over stunning parkland. Flower choices included pale pink calla lilies, coral coloured Miss Piggy roses, Peach Avalanche roses, and very pale peach Vendella roses, bombastic spray roses, with peach lisianthus and a selection of mixed foliages.
More photos will follow soon.

Congratulation to James & Katie who were married at St. Mary’s Church in Henley earlier this year, with their reception at Temple Island.
Katie looked stunning, and her very simple bouquet of just white Akito roses, complemented her dress beautifully.
