Champagne, Afternoon Tea and Flowers

Nick and Rachel headed down to the luxury surroundings of Hotel du Vin at One Devonshire Gardens on Saturday and spent the afternoon supping champagne (well the 22 ladies participating did!), munching on delicious sandwiches and cakes (once the 22 ladies had gone home!) but mostly demonstrating current flowers trends as well as Mood Flowers signature pieces.

We love it when fabulous photographers make our flowers look fabulous too! The simplicity and elegance of this wedding was captured perfectly by Fiona at Fiona MacNeill Photography. Take a look at her website and blog to see more of her beautiful work.
 
Last October Francesca and Iain were married at one of our favourite city centre venues, 29 Royal Exchange Square. The stunning bride chose simple yet timeless Sweet Avalanche roses for herself and her bridal party.

Happy Burns Night!

Robert Burns was a great fan of flowers in his poems so this evening we enjoyed creating seventy five table centres for a large Burns Night celebration at the SECC. We combined thistle with coolwater roses, purple veronica, limonium and folded aspistra leaves to create centrepieces with a Scottish flavour. They looked great at the studio en masse and atmospheric under the event lights at the venue.

Wedding Flowers Class

On Saturday Nick was joined at our Flower School by wedding florists looking to refresh their skills as well as some participants wishing to explore the subject for the first time. Together they created beautiful bridal bouquets and buttonholes all in the Mood Flowers signature style.

If you want to refresh your skills or try working with flowers for the first time then check out our range of classes on our website http://www.moodflowers.com/

The Best Scottish Weddings Magazine - Winter Edition

We are delighted to be featured in the Winter edition of ‘The Best Scottish Weddings’ magazine. The wedding of one of our bride’s Aileen  is shown on pg 186. She chose a beautiful combination of red grand prix, pale pink sweet avalanche roses, alstromeria and sedum for her bouquets.

For more ideas for your bouquets and table centrepieces have a look at more of our work on pages 227 and 231.  The magazine is on sale now.

Happy Hogmanay!

We wish all our customers a very Happy New Year when it arrives. We had a great 2011 and we couldn't have done it without you. Thanks for working with us to create some beautiful flowers.

We have set up our final event of the year - the Gathering of the Clans at Cameron House - where we created contemporary Scottish table displays using thistle, liatris, and veronica with a hint of tartan and lots of candlelight.

Happy Hogmanay!

Our final weddings of 2011

This week we completed our final weddings of the year at Hotel du Vin at One Devonshire Gardens and House for an Art Lover.

For the first wedding we combined crisp white ranunculus with anemones, Viviane roses and delicate helleborus. For the second we used hundreds of Coolwater roses to complement the colour scheme of the Music Room at House for an Art Lover.

We wish both couples our best wishes as they start 2012 together!
