A Dream in Blush and Gold: A Luxury Summer Wedding at Froyle Park

Posted on May 8, 2026 in

Real Weddings

There is something undeniably ethereal about a British summer wedding, especially when set against the rolling hills of the Hampshire countryside. We had the pleasure of witnessing a celebration that redefined “outdoor luxury” at the iconic Froyle Park.

From the scent of fresh flowers to Penhaligon’s candles wafting through the air to the delicate crunch of Ladurée macaroons, every detail was a masterclass in timeless elegance.

The Ceremony: A Floral Masterpiece

The heart of the day centred around the famous Froyle Park dome. To create a romantic, garden-esque sanctuary, the structure was adorned with full, lush garlands of hydrangea and roses. The beauty of these arrangements wasn’t just in their appearance, but in their intentionality—after the “I dos,” these stunning florals were expertly repurposed for the reception, ensuring the fragrance and beauty followed the couple all day long.

The Reception: White, Blush, and Gold

The aesthetic was a soft, sophisticated palette of crisp white and “ballet slipper” blush, accented with touches of vintage gold.

Inside the Ballroom, the tables were topped with tall glass vases featuring soaring arrangements of:

Delphiniums for height and drama.
Hydrangeas for soft, cloud-like texture.
Roses for that classic, romantic finish.

The focal point of the room was undoubtedly the Sweetheart Table. The Bride and Groom sat behind a floor-to-floor garland that cascaded elegantly to the ground, surrounded by a sea of flickering candles and scattered petals. It was an intimate oasis in the middle of a grand celebration.

A Feast for the Senses

The excellence continued with the menu. Jacaranda Catering served a spectacular meal that had guests raving, followed by a show-stopping dessert display. Dotty Rose Cakes provided a magnificent tall tower of cake, while guests were treated to world-renowned Ladurée macaroons for a touch of Parisian flair.

To complete the atmosphere, the room was layered with scent—the natural perfume of the fresh blooms mingled perfectly with the warm, inviting glow of Penhaligon’s candles.

Captured for Eternity

A day this beautiful requires a keen eye to document it. Rebecca Frost Photography was on hand to capture every fleeting glance and intricate detail, from the gold accents on the tables to the way the summer sun hit the dome during the ceremony.

For couples looking for inspiration on how to blend grand luxury with a romantic, intimate feel, this Froyle Park wedding is the ultimate blueprint.

An Elegant Wedding at Avington Park

Posted on September 19, 2023 in

Real Weddings

Avington Park stands as an exquisite canvas for unforgettable weddings. Nestled in pristine Hampshire countryside, its timeless elegance offers couples a romantic haven where they can say, ‘I Do’. The stately 17^th Century home boasts stunning architecture, opulent interiors, and enchanting gardens that provide a dreamy backdrop for ceremonies and receptions. Its rich history lends an air of grandeur, while versatile spaces accommodate both intimate gatherings and grand celebrations. From the regal Great Hall to the picturesque lakeside, every corner whispers of love stories. It was a pleasure to work with this dreamy couple to create their luxury floral design at Avington Park and I invite you to scroll through a snippet of their very special day…

“Guests absolutely raved about Fiona Curry’s sumptuous florals displayed throughout the Avington Park venue. She and her team brought our luxury wedding aesthetic to life exactly as we’d envisioned. I had to pinch myself when I walked into the ceremony room! Flowers were such a key element of our wedding that Fiona was only the second supplier (after the venue) that we hired. Throughout the months, she listened, gently guided, and never pressured us into ordering more – always cognizant of cost and budget. Fiona also prepared beautiful flowers for our pre-wedding event. And bonus: I feel like I made a wonderful friend in the process. From the bottom of my heart, Fiona, THANK YOU for making our wedding weekend the best of my life!”

Having worked at Avington Park a handful times, I knew how beautiful it was, which only added to my excitement of working with the soon-to-be newlyweds here. Hosted on Saturday 8^th July 2023, the couple were graced with glorious summer sunshine throughout their wedding weekend. They actually began celebrating the day before with an informal BBQ and activities on the grounds of Avington Park estate, as they had guests flying in from around the world and wanted to make the most of their time together. My team and I arrived at the venue to decorate the spaces with bud vases, flickering candles and decadent arrangements that were dotted around for the guests to relax and unwind in. The King Charles room was the first room guests would enter upon arrival, so we wanted to make sure it had the wow-factor from the second they stepped in. The lovely Alice of Avington Park was on hand to help throughout the set-up!

Our beautiful bride-to-be was a vision, carrying a bouquet of pillow-soft blooms, including roses, peonies and white hydrangeas. She was wearing a strapless gown, which was the perfect match for her blush pink and ivory flowers. Her husband-to-be had a few buds from her bridal bouquet to pop into his buttonhole.

The stairs that led to the Versailles Room (where the ceremony was being held) were an opportunity to create a statement ‘aisle’ focus. On the day of the wedding, we entwined the stairs with exquisite blush roses, oodles of natural foliage and swathes of falling ivy – the epitome of understated elegance. There’s no doubt about it – the Versailles Room was utterly breathtaking and we so enjoyed filling the space with our signature tall clear pedestals and large billowing arrangements on tall glass vases that gracefully lined the aisle. As you entered the room, on the lefthand side was a stunning and vast mirror, which we artfully adorned with an arrangement of full blush blooms. At the top of the room, an additional huge mirror filled the space, which we styled with matching blush posies as well as tall blousy white delphiniums for an extra dose of glamour, drama and luxury.

After vows had been exchanged, my team and I returned to the ceremony space to repurpose some of the flowers for the reception, using the floral arrangements in the Orangery for table centrepieces. The mirror designs were delicately placed along the top table and on the floor, offering a natural look that looked as though the flowers were growing up the table. The other tables were dressed in pale pink tapered candles in glass holders, along with glass tea lights filled with light pink tea candles. A show-stopping, light and airy space, the Orangery had a seating area where guests could take a few moments to relax and soak up the wedding magic. To style the area, it was filled with furniture from Pippa at W Collection. Cushions and throws in a soft pink palette added a hint of romance to the décor – not to mention the guest chairs for the wedding breakfast.

The bride had fallen head over heels in love with our FCF signature cake flowers, ordering them in a soft pink shade for her wedding cake, which effortlessly became a focal point of the wedding day. It was an absolute joy to work with the newlyweds and to be a part of their elegant occasion at Avington Park – we already can’t wait to return.

Summer Wedding at Northbrook Park

Posted on August 25, 2023 in

Real Weddings

Nestled in the very heart of Hampshire’s countryside, Northbrook Park stands proudly as one of the UK’s most timeless wedding venues, boasting picturesque landscapes, a stunning manor house and an enchanting walled garden. With its blend of elegance and natural beauty, it provided Marie and Ollie the perfect canvas to craft their dream wedding in July earlier this year. It brings me a huge amount of pleasure to be able to share a glimpse from their very special day with you, so keep scrolling for all the floral wedding inspiration you could ever need.

A fun-loving couple with a focus on style and elegance, Marie and Ollie approached Fiona Curry Flowers with the brief of an all-white colour scheme, beautifully complemented with subtle touches of pale blue. From the moment I met this perfect pair, I could effortlessly envision how their wedding day would unfold at Northbrook Park and just knew the colour scheme was a fabulous fit for the setting.

I worked with the bride to create the concept for her bridal bouquet, using an array of white roses, spray roses, white stock and delicate pale blue delphiniums that enhanced the all-white feel, rather than overtaking it. For that all-important finishing touch, we wrapped the stems of her wedding bouquet with pale blue satin ribbon and charming pearl pins for an extra hint of luxury. Marie’s bouquet worked wonderfully alongside her wedding dress, which featured an off-the-shoulder Bardot neckline by Suzanne Neville, while she wore her hair in a half-up half-down style.

Marie’s bridesmaids looked utterly divine in a selection of mix and match dusty blue gowns (as a nod to the couple’s colour palette). Their bridesmaid bouquets featured the same blooms as the bride-to-be (as daintier versions) and were bound with soft ivory satin instead – the contrast looked gorgeous against the hue of their gowns. When it came to the groom and his groomsmen, my team and I created white rose buds for the buttonholes.

As guests gradually made their way to the ceremony space, they were wowed by the floral décor in the Vine Room, where we had artfully adorned the fireplace with a column that trailed all the way to the floor. The flower display was brimming with white roses, spray roses, stock, phlox and pale blue delphinium, a touch of white hydrangea and eucalyptus. We also filled the fireplace with flickering chapel candles displayed in tall cylinder vases which worked beautifully with the light and airy space of the Vine Room. The aisle was styled with tall clear pedestals and tall glass vases that added a statement with the same flowers as the fireplace, framing where Marie and Ollie would say, ‘I Do’. Pillow-soft ivory petals lined the aisle, leading the way to infinity.

Following the ceremony, our team at Fiona Curry Flowers returned to repurpose the tall vases of flowers on the tables and low glass footed vases with the same flowers that filled the rest of the room. The fireplace arrangement and candles were also redesigned to decorate the top table, which was utterly stunning. As a luxury wedding florist, I always collaborate with my couples to discover ways to re-use their beautiful blooms throughout their wedding day. It also offers us the opportunity to get truly creative with our flower designs!

A huge thank you to Sarah Legge Photography for sharing the most exquisite imagery of Marie and Ollie’s wedding day with us – it is a joy to be able to relive their celebration over and over again. If you’re newly engaged and looking for a wedding florist to create your elegant flower vision, I’d love to hear from you!

A romantic wedding at Northbrook Park for Sophie and Saul

Posted on July 28, 2023 in

Real Weddings

Nestled in the Hampshire countryside, Northbrook Park is an 18^th century manor house that sits amidst impressive grounds. With its endless charm and photograph opportunities aplenty, it provided the perfect backdrop to create a lasting floral impression for Sophie and Saul’s wedding day. With The Surrey Wedding Company on hand to ensure the day ran like clockwork and the talented Charlotte Bryer-Ash Photography there to capture every beautiful moment as it unfolded, it really was a day to remember. Immerse yourself in an array of floral delights as we enjoy a snippet of Sophie and Saul’s ultra-romantic wedding day. From the Vine Room to the Walled Gardens and Orangery, their day is brimming with details you’ll want to steal for your very own special day.

Sophie looked utterly breath-taking in a lace dress with a subtle mermaid silhouette, featuring white button detailing that glided down the back of her gown, leading to a sweeping train. The bride’s hair was styled in a half-up half-down style, with loose curls brilliantly framing her radiant smile. Sophie carried a mixed bridal bouquet, overflowing with luscious white roses, indulgent scented peonies and delicate gypsophelia with a touch of blush spray roses. Her beautiful bridesmaids completed the vision, holding smaller versions of the bride’s magnificent bouquet as they made their way down the aisle. Saul looked stylish in a blue suit; his white rose buttonhole stood out against the suit’s colour. His blush tie complimented the bridal bouquet effortlessly, creating the perfect union for their floral design.

Sophie and Saul opted to hold their ceremony in the enchanting Vine Room at Northbrook Park. As their luxury wedding florist, my team and I decorated the space with an elegant scheme of all white florals, lots of leafy foliage, and the indulgent scent of eucalyptus. The couple wanted to make the most of the fireplace, so we created a true statement piece, layering it with a magnitude of glass cylinders and chapel candles that effortlessly crafted a sense of sophisticated romance. I added tall white delphiniums to the grand mantlepiece arrangement for an extra dose of drama and glamour. Sophie glided down the aisle lined with glass hurricane lamps and hundreds of glorious petals. Guests looked on as the perfect couple said their vows between symmetrical white floral urns overflowing with cascading eucalyptus and white florals – a spectacular ceremony setting to say, ‘I Do’.

Going through to the Walled Garden, guests were treated to a sublime sensory surprise as they walked between a curtain of hanging pure white roses on pristine ribbons which gracefully glided with the light summer breeze. A unique ethereal touch surrounding guests in the love shared between the happy couple.

Sophie, Saul, and their loved ones moved into the Orangery for the reception. Three long banquet tables continued the timeless aesthetic of the day. Guests’ eyes were drawn to undulating glass vases of different heights, filled with white flowers of roses, peonies, phlox, stock, scabiosa and spray roses with eucalyptus. The impressive arrangements were illuminated by tall crystal candle holders holding ivory candles and a sea of glass lights that bathed the sophisticated tablescapes in soft flickering candlelight. It really was the ultimate set-up for Sophie and Saul to enjoy White Truffle’s delicious catering before the cutting of an equally spectacular cake created by Monica Cakes.

This dreamy floral scheme, magnificent venue and the undeniable feeling of romance transported Sophie and Saul thought their special day. It’s no wonder it was such a pleasure to create the couple’s luxury wedding day florals at Northbrook Park…

A ‘Walled Garden’ Wedding at the Four Seasons Hotel in Hampshire

Posted on June 23, 2023June 23, 2023 in

Real Weddings

When Mellina and Tom approached me to create the luxury flower design for their Hampshire wedding at the Four Seasons Hotel, I just knew the occasion was going to be utterly enchanting. Set amid rolling hills, enticing gardens and over 500 acres of countryside, this Georgian manor house promises the perfect setting for a quintessentially English wedding. Keep scrolling to immerse yourself in the floral delights of Mellina & Tom’s walled garden wedding…

Hosted on Saturday 2^nd July 2022, the weather delivered a day of endless sunshine with a delicate and welcome summer breeze. The bride-to-be was incredibly lovely and an absolute pleasure to work with. Mellina had a clear vision in mind, while allowing my floral creativity to shine through in each and every design. The brief was for feminine flowers that were full, voluminous and textured, embracing the romance of the location. And… we did just that!

Mellina looked a vision wearing a Lyn Ashworth Gown, purchased from the Wedding Atelier in Paddington. Her make-up artist, Melissa Clare, created a natural yet glamorous look. The bride’s trailing bridal bouquet was brimming with everything that Mellina adored, from elegant orchids to a touch of mint for a subtle and natural scent that carried throughout the day. Pillow-soft blush pink roses also made an appearance, effortlessly tying in with the pink gowns that the bridesmaids were wearing. The sweetest flower girls wore gypsophila flower crowns while carrying wicker baskets overflowing with petals.

As the bride and her team of ‘maids glided down the walled garden ready for the ceremony, the flowers we had designed looked beautiful against the backdrop of the Four Seasons Hotel. Dainty pink posies with long flowing trails of foliage that touched the floor were tied to the ceremony chairs using ivory satin ribbon, featuring tails that gracefully danced with the breeze. The couple had their hearts set on a flower arch, which we create using big blousy blooms wrapped with swatches of soft ivory fabric.

After the newlyweds had exchanged their vows under the blue skies, Mellina and Tom made their way into the Mandeville Suite for their reception. Round guest tables were styled to absolute perfection, alongside a thoughtful mixture of tall glass vases with large arrangements that matched the bridal flowers and luxurious white Phlox, as well as tables with lowered flower arrangements and the addition of our FCF vintage gold tea lights. It really was a sight to behold!

A huge thank you to Richard Skins Photography for capturing Mellina & Tom’s spectacular Hampshire wedding on camera – it is a joy to be able to share a glimpse of their celebration with you on the journal today.
