REAL WEDDINGS - KEIRAN & PARRIS

It’s always an honour to be asked to be the florist for a couple’s wedding, but when a close friend and loved one asks, it’s extra special. I’ve known today’s couple, Parris & Keiran, for over 10 years, from the time myself and Parris were both living together whilst studying various Photography degrees at Uni - which we both obviously use very little now when it comes to our careers haha!
Parris and Keiran were a constant steadfast pillar of a good relationship, supportive, loving and always a good time. I knew their wedding would be filled with the same feeling.

Filled with a chic colour palette of whites, soft pinks and green, so I went with a timeless combination of Peonies, Roses, Astilbe, Scabiosa and Eucalyptus, as well as some other seasonal highlights. The Marquee at Hockwold Hall was perfect for a summer wedding, and we filled it to the brim with foliages to bring the outside landscape of Norfolk in. Leafy table garlands are incredibly popular at the moment with couples, with their simple style twinned with a high impact, rustic finish. For the top table, we created a sustainable overflowing long and low arrangement, filled with all the flowers, textures and foliages of summer. Perfect for the centre point of the room. A day full of laughter and most of all love, and it was a privilege to be a part of it.

‘From start to finish, our experience with Lily and Liz was faultless. Hannah is so knowledgeable, and her expertise is so apparent. Every phone call that we had left us confident that our flowers would be beautiful, and they definitely didn’t disappoint! The attention to detail was brilliant; from sharing the bridesmaids’ dresses to match the roses to adding extra foliage to areas of décor that we hadn’t planned for. We got so many compliments from guests about the flowers which all looked stunning and smelt divine. We couldn’t recommend the Lily and Liz highly enough! Thank you so much for everything.
I honestly can’t put into words how blown away I was by your work. The flowers pulled everything else together and made the day perfect. Thank you so so much, the only thing that I would fault is the fact that they don’t last forever!’
