Pink Love


Four weeks in and I had the pleasure of working with Kate and Greg on their French wedding in the sun. I first met Kate back in November on one of Chateau Rigaud's wedding planning weekends; we have a couple of these every winter which gives couples the opportunity to come down, stay for a few nights and plan every element of their wedding. From the food, the wine, the activities and of course flowers and styling, all in a relaxed cosy atmosphere - think red wine, log fires, spa treatments and a film in the cinema! From the start Kate was a lady who knew what she wanted: pink ranunculus - and lots of them.  Being May we were in luck and managed to order them from our trusty supplier in Holland. 

One of the things I love about my job (hey what's not to love?!) is the variety of different people I have the opportunity to work with. This week I met a fantastically lovely and hugely talented photographer called Amy Murrell, check out her portfolio at especially amy beautiful don't you think? Anyway hopefully I'll be able to share her much better pictures with you soon but in the meantime here are a few of my snaps from the weekend.
