It was a lovely Sring morning yesterday when I set off out to exhibit at Rudstone Walk Wedding Fayre. Let’s face it not many people enjoy getting up early to work on a Sunday but as I prepared my flowers for the day with the sun shining through the window of my workshop I had a feeling it was going to be a good one!

As a seasoned wedding fayre exhibitor I know only too well that some of them are mostly attended by people who want some free cake and numerous trips to the chocolate fountain. However, this was not the case….

So many loved up couples arrived to take a look at the venue and meet with  wedding suppliers of gowns, cakes, cars and photographers. I met with so many brides who were genuinely enthuiastic about their wedding flowers, some of them already had ideas, others just starting to gather inspiration. It appears that the vintage trend is to continue into the latter part of this year but there was also one or two ladies who want to be a little bit more innovative which is great for me because I love the challenge of trying something new.  It’s great to be able to spend time with them individually to talk about their own unique requirements. There’s going to be a lot of beautiful weddings out there this year and next Spring looks as though it is going to be particularly busy which is very promising with all this ‘eonomic climate doom and gloom’.

love is definately in the air
