Listen up: floral displays are no longer just for tables; we’re taking them to new heights in 2015, literally. I was at a wedding last year that had the most beautiful flower arrangements perfuming the venue with both their nose-tickling scent and creativity. Floral chandeliers were just one fab feature that caught my eye, and ever since that blissful day I have been obsessed with floating florals.

MORE BANG FOR YOUR BLOOM

Wedding flowers can often end up costing more than you initially budgeted for, so why not get some serious bang for your buck by having pieces that will be truly unique. Just think of the wedding envy you could summon with some decadent delphiniums and perfect peonies dangling overhead, in an otherworldly arrangement.

CEREMONY OF FLOWERS

Create an art-like installation of cascading flowers as a backdrop for your alter, adding colour, texture and life to your ceremony. Garlands are another option to prettify a pew, transforming even the dullest seating into pieces of sculptural beauty.
