Tasnim's Mehndi - pretty in pink, green and yellow

Every now and again you get a chance to work on something wonderful.  These few delicate items were commissioned for Tasnim's Mehndi party and were a joy to create.  Pink, yellow and lime green all delivered in a nice big white box for her to enjoy. 

My photography is not to be desired, I can hear cries of horror that things of such prettiness can be photographed against the cold dark background of a slate floor, however, focus on the lovely blooms and maybe one day I'll improve my photography skills!  Until then, I have a list of excellent photographers I am happy to recommend, like my baking, my 'through the lens' skills are not likely to improve in the near future. 

Enjoy the pics!

Tasnim and Mo celebrate their wedding in traditional style

I had such an amazing time putting together Tasnim and Mohammed's wedding flowers. As a couple, they were great fun to work with, and had THE most romantic story on how they met, never did they think that a mistaken parking space allocation could lead to a wedding! Flowers were an incredibly important part of the day. Tasnim wanted her bouquet to 'sparkle from afar' so a stunning collection of roses were set with tiara diamante so that it dazzled. Their stage was set with an amazing 10ft wide by 4ft deep floral display and simple yet effective glassware and floating flowers reflected the light of 100's of candles in front of over 500 guests.

Can't wait to see their wedding pics!

Tasnim's stunning collection of fresh roses and sparkling diamante.



A stunning 10ft wide backdrop of flowers for a fabulous couple.

One of the garlands created for the ceremony using fresh roses and diamante. I've seen Mohammeds sister since, she's pressing the flowers from one of them as a keepsake of the wedding :-)

The room (well, a section of it!) all set up with low, contempory glassware and candles. I'll put more photos showing the room from one side to the other on www.facebook.com/lauracolemanflowers.

What a fabulous wedding! x
