Baring in mind your chosen venue along side the time of year your wedding takes place we get an overwhelming sense of rustic opulence. Hoghton Tower in all its grey grandeur stands proudly against a backdrop of country moors, a scene that ensures that we cannot help but think of the windswept, bucolic setting of Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights. A tale of passion, love swept along with natural imagery. We would begin to create this look using subtle autumnal tones; slate greys turned aubergine by autumnal showers, leaf browns and clotted creams interspersed with subtle hints of rusted berries, nuts and mossy greens. We will use a combination of substantial and beautiful materials not necessarily conventional flowers, moreover materials with lots of texture and objects such as nuts berries, granite, gnarled lichen engorged branches, slate and moss to create an overall picture of total unsuperficiality. The raw, natural materials will be set perfectly against the rustic, historic masculinity of Hoghton Tower. I intend to use fauna which will be representative of new beginnings, both nature and marriage symbolise renaissance. A balance between rustic and romance, in terms of colour and design is necessary and following this theme ensures this specifically with the bridesmaid’s gowns in mind. Highlighting the whole day with the romantic twinkle of clustered candle light will complete an extremely romantic look... those were my thoughts, my hopes and this is the realisation enjoy......
After delivering Caroline's Bridal Bouquets to the family home here in Lytham St Annes, we arrived at Holy Trinity Church, Hoghton nice and early to meet the Groom Matthew (I do hope you can see the romantic hero in him!) and his Groom's Men, the Boutonniere I designed for Matthew focused on the very wild "Ladies Slipper Orchid" (Paphiopedilum) together with a sprig of Lily of the Valley, Crocosmia & Hypericum Berries all which were used in his Bride's Bridal Bouquet.
We arranged huge hurricane lamps on stone pillars, with Gingers, Nerines, Hazel, Banksias and Golden Hornet surrounding the lamp. 
The Groom's Men's Boutonniere'd were a collection of berries; Crocosmia, Albiflora, Hypericum and Rosemary & Ivy.
The very beautiful Bridsmaid's arrived wearing burnt Ochre, autumnal coloured gowns with a black wrap.
THE BRIDAL BOUQUET
I love the colours throughout this wedding I think they reflect the season beautifully.
On the end of each pew I tied a simple nosegay of Crocosmia (Monbretia), Callas, Roses &Hypericum tied with some rough raffia
So many congratulations to this fabulous couple
The Brides parents, Janet, Bride's Mum is wearing a simple corsage of Amnesia Rose & Rolled Petals with some sprigs of fragrant Lily of the Valley.
Then to the spectacular reception venue Hoghton Tower
The entertainment was provided by the adorable Mr Paul Dobie
Chairs were covered by Dawn from Creative Cover Hire
The Top Table, which is incidentally steeped in history, it's the original table where the piece of beef was knighted to become "Sir Loin"
The cake 
These final three images were taken by professional photographer Martyn Pearson, many thanks to him for providing them.
At the end of the evening Caroline lined up her friends and the wedding bouquet took flight!

Crematory with one of their -in my opinion- best Songs: Caroline (Album: "Believe")
Lyrics:
Days vanish like hours - Hours creep like
days
Pleasant pictures in my head
Every breath like the whiff of your love
Your every glimpse thousand needles under
my skin
Day and Night - Eye to Eye - Caroline
Day and Night - Eye to Eye - Heart and
Mind -
Time to Time
Dark and Bright - Life to Life - Caroline
My heart lay at your feet
Broken, Hurt- Died so often- Hoped so
much
If you were a dream i would sleep forever
Like the child in man first learning to play
Day and Night - Eye to Eye - Caroline
Day and Night - Eye to Eye - Heart and
Mind -
Time to Time
Dark and Bright - Life to Life - Caroline
So many died for this instant
So many live only for the moment
Your scent bewilders my sins
Your eyes slay my mind
My thoughts always near you
The fire of passion burns like the loneliness
without you
Day and Night - Eye to Eye - Caroline
Day and Night - Eye to Eye - Heart and
Mind -
Time to Time
Dark and Bright - Life to Life - Caroline
Day and Night - Eye to Eye - Heart and
Mind -
Time to Time
Dark and Bright - Life to Life - Caroline
Day and Night - Eye to Eye - Caroline
