Our wedding linens began as my paintings And I aligned with my dear friend Beth from @alba.tableware For both the rehearsal and main day for my own wedding. Then the florals were designed sensitively around them by a very special (never done before) floral collaboration. @paularooneyfloralworld with @breige__ @thelittleflower_atelier @foxflora__ Beth from @alba.tablescape and I have been quietly planning these linens for a long time. Many years we have worked together and finally the time came. I shared my desire with her to put my paintings into linens and together we both felt SO inspired. This was a childhood dream of mine, and many of these watercolours I painted during my recovery. I had very clear ideas of what I wanted to create. I approached Beth,and we found ourselves on the same page to create something special. It felt like a full circle moment, especially with my husband’s background in print and design, founding two global fashion companies. But it was my dear friend Beth from @alba.tableware who made it possible to bring them to life. We’ve worked together for years, with her linens featured across so many of my shoots. When I showed her my paintings, we both knew instantly this had to become something more. So we turned them into fabric. What you see here is the beginning of that. It was art translated into something you can experience, not just observe. Together we created a premium rental collection for weddings, now available, with an official launch coming in June. The florals were designed to work in harmony with the linens and brought to life through an incredible collaboration between @PaulaRooneyfloralworld , @breige__ , @foxflora__ and @thelittleflower_atelier each adding their own layer to what became a fully immersive setting. The image you see here was captured by me on my own wedding day in the moments I picked up my camera and brought me so much joy. Full official wedding Credits in the comments

🌷I turned my paintings into our wedding! 🌷 From the tablescape to the fashion, bags, and textiles. From my husbands career history founding two companies in global fashion & print design for labels like Karl Lagerfeld, Chloe, Moschino, Zimmermann, to me as a bride designing my own fabrics and textiles for our wedding, and it all came from those watercolours I painted the year I was unwell. Painting became one of the only ways I could stay connected to myself. I worked in watercolours, creating soft floral studies that later became the foundation for the linens and napkins across the wedding. Those paintings were developed into textiles with my dear friend Beth from @alba.tableware , who I had worked closely with for years on projects, as she supplied many of the linens for the Iconic shoots we did over the years. Together we created a collection rooted in my original artwork, something deeply personal. These linens and napkins we created for the wedding plus a whole new range with @alba.tableware (and something else very special coming soon!!) are now available to rent! The intention for the table was always old world. Renaissance in feeling. Back to my fine art days as a photographer. Soft and expressive. Buck and I knew exactly what we wanted. Everything was in bloom, and there was a natural abundance that carried the whole setting. Even on the wedding day I took my film camera and shot a roll off on the table details that we so carefully curated, and I LOVED getting my film camera out! The tableware was by @theluxecollectionuk , who I have worked with for years across different projects, and it sat beautifully. The florals followed the same philosophy. Soft, loose and natural, with movement and a sense that they belonged. Thank you to my dearest friends @paularooneyfloralworld along with @Breige__ Kelly @foxflora__ and Jill @thelittleflower_atelier for bringing that vision to life so beautifully. The linens and napkins are now available to rent through @alba.tableware with our full collection launching soon. credits in the comments

The 3 arches made of fresh blooms! A unique floral collaboration of some of the most incredible florists 💛 It began with a conversation with @paularooneyfloralworld . I met her for coffee at Soho Farmhouse right at the beginning, and we spoke about my wedding flowers and the feeling I wanted to create. I wanted a tribute to fine art, renaissance florals, a nod to my early years in fine art. She suggested something amazing: to bring together a group of floral artists whom I love to create something truly collaborative and truly fine art. And I knew exactly who I wanted around me. On the fresh side for the wedding I reached out to @breige__ , @thelittleflower_atelier and @foxflora__ , and on the silk side for the nightclub and rehearsal I asked @fleurdelacouture . These are friends, collaborators and artists who understand me, and I knew they would bring their own beautiful interpretation to it. Flowers have always meant so much to me, and I’m very visually sensitive, so I found myself wanting to be really involved working very closely with the floral team all year. Not long after, I came across a photograph on Pinterest, soft layered floral arches with urns on the floor. It felt abundant, like stepping back in time. The vision evolved and Paula created sketches which we refined together, and from there we had team calls with Briege, Jill and Kelly, sharing references, discussing varieties, tone, style for the fresh pieces, and refined the details together over time. What I loved most was how collaborative it became. Each florist brought her own eye and artistry to the vision and the execution. it would not have been what it became without each contribution. It was never about one person, but about what happens when you bring the right people together. And then suddenly it was there. In Provence. And as my dad walked me down the aisle, he leaned in and said, “this is the greatest honour of my life.” It was the most precious moment in my life, something I had dreamed of since I was a little girl 🩶 Soon I’ll share about my journey with Genni for the sensational silk commission.

Now that you’ve seen the dress fitting and the quiet moments of getting ready, we arrive at the heart of the day, the ceremony. ✨ The ceremony unfolded beneath a breathtaking three-arch floral tunnel, where layers of soft blush, ivory, and wild green textures created the feeling of walking into an Impressionist painting. Perfectly at home in the Provençal landscape, the floral arches echoed the romance of Monet’s gardens, where light, movement, and colour dissolve into emotion. The design felt painterly rather than formal, as if the flowers had naturally grown into this dreamlike passage, bringing the ceremony to life with the softness and poetry of Impressionism itself. Brought to life by the planner and an extraordinary team of florists, every bloom felt intentional yet effortlessly organic, transforming the aisle into a living artwork. For Katie, an artist herself, this vision resonated deeply with the way she has always seen and created beauty in the world. It was more than ceremony styling, it was a reflection of artistic language, translated into flowers, light, and atmosphere.

The ceremony began with the couple’s story and the bride’s identity as an artist. With a proposal in Paris, and a Monet book gifted after visiting the museum, I began the design process for the main wedding day by looking at the works of Claude Monet, the gardens of Giverny, and the wider world of impressionist and en plein air landscape painting - where light, atmosphere and movement shape the scene as much as form itself. As the concept developed, I came across a painting of a garden that immediately stayed with me because of its composition: the repetition of curved arches, and at the centre, a woman in a flowing white dress standing beneath dense greenery with clusters of pink roses, the pathway receding into the distance with light filtering through foliage in dappled patches giving a dreamy almost glowing quality. That image became a key visual reference for the ceremony design, and inspired the series of floral arches that framed the aisle beneath the trees. From there, the idea evolved into a real-life interpretation of a pathway through a painted garden - soft, romantic and immersive, as though stepping into an artwork. I was also drawn to the dreamlike quality of artists’ garden scenes more broadly: the softness of figures moving through nature, the filtered light, the pastel atmosphere, and the sense of a moment half-lived and half-painted. Set within the trees at Bastide de Laurence, the ceremony was designed as a play of light, colour and perspective - with the repeated arches drawing the eye forward and creating the feeling of movement through the landscape. It was intended to feel painterly rather than ornamental: a scene shaped by the couple’s story, by the bride’s own relationship with art, and by that romantic notion of nature as artists so often depict it.

Flowers don’t last forever.  Flowers aren’t an heirloom you can gift to your children. You can’t wear them again. You can’t bring them out for your anniversaries. Flowers are more than that. Their ephemerality is precisely what makes them so special. Their power cannot be held in your hand. They are the most beautiful and perfect expression of the inherent power of this time, this place - right now, right here.  Floral artistry at this level is all about taking the beauty of your event and heightening it even further. Our designs augment the narrative so that your celebrations are an aesthetic expression of everything you are, everything you love, and everything you hold dear. Just like the day itself, the flowers’ presence is fleeting. But they are immortalised in the beauty they create through memory, and more tangibly, through your photography. An investment in flowers is an investment in the immense magic of your celebration. An investment in creating the most beautiful, immersive, and captivating moment - an enchanted feeling to submerge yourselves in.  Planner: @rosiegreenevents Floral Designer: @foxflora__ Venue: @bacchanalialdn Photographer: @katiejulia_ Co Photographer: @ninawernicke @wild_fern_photography Videographer: @storiesfromeros Content Creation: @haze.media_ Designer: @wildenlondon Hair: @hair_by_duboux Makeup: @jessicarose.makeupartist Stationery Designer: @studioanika Band: @supatightband Tablescape: @the_social_kitchen #LondonWeddingFlorist #LondonWedding #FloralDesigner #BotanicalArtist #CotswoldWeddingFlorist

In this segue of seasons— the twixt between winter and spring— we begin to notice the quiet shifts. A cool, sharp wind beneath blue skies. The storm that appears from nowhere. Light stretching a little further into the evening. It is a season of new beginnings, new growth, new promise. Of seeds doing their most important work in the dark, beneath the surface, ready for their reveal. I have become acutely attuned of how our own lives move in seasons too— moments of unseen growth, roots deepening beneath the surface, until one day we emerge, ready to reveal. A gentle reminder that what is forming quietly is not dormant, but becoming. Flowers are a visual reminder of this vast circle of life: from roots, to rise, to bloom, to retreat, to rebirth. They remind me to be present, to surrender to what is and take joy in small shifts, in bird song, ie morning light. These smokey late night captures of flowers in the dark by @tammyshun for @rosiegreenevents wedding last summer are the prefect reminder of warmer days ahead. #springiscoming #rebirth #becoming Wedding Planner – @rosiegreenevents Venue – @kinhousewiltshire Floral Designer – @foxflora__ Hairstylist – @hair_by_duboux Photography – @tammyshun Videography – @storiesfromeros Makeup – @jazcrush.artistry Band – @supatightband Evening Catering – @afrisiann Draping – @drap.d_ Tableware Hire – @theluxecollectionuk Linen Hire – @alba.tableware AV, Lighting, Discoball, Fire Pits – @evallanceuk Stationery – @aisling_erin_design Cake – @annacakecouture Kin House wedding | Kin House Wedding Florist | Euridge Wedding | Cotswolds Wedding | Hedsor House Wedding

“To be a good artist, You have to be a good human” Thats having emotions, having presence, having perspective” The most beautifully articulated statement from @siennaspiro on @jackxsaunders this evening 🤍 For me, this is grounding ourselves in our couples and brands that choose us. It’s understanding the intricacies of your love story or brand story. It’s understanding the intentions behind design choices. It’s working with your venue as a canvas and creating something that is unmistakably you. For this event, we sculpted with roses, figs and chillis to echo the artwork of the 500-year old tapestries of old love stories, as well as the contours of the most beautiful corseted, swan-like gown from @julita_ldn_bride Scroll for our design inspo. Our work is defined by fluidity, by movement. Sculptural in form, emotive in nature. If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.
