Elegant Sophistication in a Stunning Sevillian Setting

Patience, patience, I know I nag the photographers until they must dread the site of my email address and glaze over, but I was so excited about receiving these stunning photos from Jeremy of the most beautiful wedding we created here in September at the charming Hacienda San Rafael in Seville

Imogen was a delight to work with as she knew exactly what she wanted and after a few consultations in the shop, with flower samples checked for colours and lots of lovely swatches of fabrics and lace we were ready to create Imogen's special day. 

Due to the Hacienda being located near Sevilla and a 2 hour drive away, we were not able to leave the coast as we were so busy, so after some detailed preparations and schedules in place we were able to create Imogen's wedding from afar!

The lantern and candles were already at the venue from a wedding the week before (which was good timing) and the utterly charming owner, Anthony, insisted on helping us by watching where everything had been placed and getting his staff to painstakingly reinstall everything again for the following weekend.  I have never met such a helpful venue and they were a joy to work with. 

Jeremy, bless him, was then put in charge of taking all the flowers to the venue, so meeting on route, we carefully transferred all the flowers to his car!  A nail biting moment until I heard that everything had arrived safely and in one piece so another big thank you to Jeremy for being our courier for the day :)

We had worked with Imogen to create a beautifully designed wedding featuring ivory and sahara roses, with lace and bead details.  The bridal flowers were absolutely divine and our table centrepieces (yes Jeremy had all this in his car!) were the same roses set on gold vintage style plates Loraine had found on a trip to London.  The end result as you can see where absolutely divine, a balance between elegant sophistication and the rustic charm of this breathtaking venue.

Imogen emailed us recently

Hi Laura Just wanted to say a big thank you for everything. The venue looked stunning and Loraine did the most beautiful job with the flowers. Thanks again xxx

The adorable flower girl with her mini bouquet has to be my favorite photo, she is too gorgeous for words :)  I also laughed when I saw the final photo of the three wise monkeys!  All stunning, and a huge thank you to Imogen and Lindsay for allowing us to create such a beautiful wedding, to Jeremy for such amazing photos yet again and to Anthony for being one of the most charming people I have ever met.
