Blushing Blooms {Wedding In Progress} A Hyde Park Barracks Picnic Wedding

There’s no denying this was a wedding we really, really wanted to win the floral designer appointment for!

This very special bride briefed us after reading the Blushing Blooms blog and her vision for a vintage inspired, rustic picnic wedding at Hyde Park Barracks was to-die-for!

Picnic baskets filled with flowers, bright pops of colour, bouquets that sung of fun and sunshine and bottles filled with flowers placed on every surface… so, when we found out we’d won this wedding we were super excited! Fast forward to now and here we are making all the above mentioned magic happen.

The professional images will of course follow – can not wait to share these – but in the meantime, here’s what we’ve been working on this week at the Blushing Blooms studio.

If you’ve got a special vision, big or small, for your wedding flowers in Sydney, please do not hesitate to contact Hills District wedding florist Sally Thompson. Email orders@blushingblooms.com.au or call the studio on 02 8850 7030 to make an appointment to discuss your wedding flower requirements today…

Blushing Blooms {Wedding in Progress} Romantic, Soft, Succulent Bouquets

Okay, today was so busy that we only remembered to quickly snap a few pictures of these beautiful bouquets just before they left the shop for delivery to one of our brides. This was a wedding we have worked with one of our supplier partner’s Event Angels on and the floral choices certainly sung of Renee’s stylish taste.

You can be sure that we will follow up with the professional images of this wedding – in the meantime here’s our happy snap to give you just a taste of what we’ve been working on….
