Gareth and Penny's Vintage Wedding at Trevenna Barns by Flourish




Gareth and Penny's beautiful Vintage inspired wedding  was held at Trevenna Barns, in the pretty village of St Neots, Liskeard in Cornwall. The lucky couple got married on one of the hottest days of the year the 4th June 2011.









 They got married in the stunning St Neots church, which dates back to 1266, it has the most beautiful stained glass windows.



 The couple and all of their guests were transported to St Neots Church and back to Trevenna in a funky 1950's bus, with a cd player pumping out 'Were going to the Chapel' at full blast!
I love this picture, Penny's dress looks so gorgeous

The picture below is of the groom and the guests on the way to the church at St Neots. The groom opted for a multi-flower buttonhole, following the tradition of picking a flower from the brides bouquet.The picture to the right is of the beautifual bride and her lovely bridesmaids.



As the couple both have a nautical background the groom picked the entertainment. A surf machine, which caused lots of laughs and was lots of fun






The centrepieces below, are our Martini Glasses filled with pearls and dusky pink voile. The flowers on top are a mixture of peony, roses, hydrangea with amaranthus trailing round the stem picked out in fairy lights. As all our flowers are silk they continued to look fantastic throughout the very hot day.



The bouquet can still be thrown even though its hired! Our silk bouquet are more robust than fresh.
 Penny and Gareth wanted a magical transformation at night, so we looped fairy light through the flowers and down the stem of the martini glass. The effect was magnificent!!

Blue theme wedding at Trevenna Barns

Blue Themed Wedding at Trevenna Barns
1st October 2011

We are in love with this colour scheme, it created such a lovely environment and work beautifully on the candelabras. The brides colour scheme was a dark blue, but we felt as blue is a dominant colour it could have made the marquee feel cold and small. As it was an October wedding we wanted to create a bright atmosphere, we told the brides blue and created a pallette of colours to complement, lighter blue, very pale purple and Ivory. I would also love do do this in future adding pink into the mixture.

Bay trees at Trevenna






Having previous done weddings at Trevenna barns, we suggested to the brides to have trees around the doorway, this room is used as the dance floor at night. This is the time of day when the fairy lights on our bay trees come into their own. Our bay trees are lit with 200 fairy lights and at £25 to hire are a great piece to lighten any room.




See a video below of how the marquee looked, excuse our videoing
