Elise's attire was a bespoke creation, an exquisite dusky pink satin dress adorned with an embellished bodice, an ethereal choice for a fairytale setting. The bridal bouquet was finished off with a hand-dyed silk ribbon, blending the hues of the bride’s dress to the groom’s suit in a subtle ombré effect. It was absolute perfection!
Elise’s dream of a literary fairy tale unfolded with cascading blooms and towering, ethereal arrangements along the aisle for an atmosphere of enchantment and wonder. A magnificent foliage garland spanned the ancient columns, crafting a natural canopy for the wedding ceremony.
The theme seamlessly extended to the reception, where stacks of books from beloved authors garnished each table, topped by floral arrangements nestled in charming tea tins. The result was a beautiful and unique tableau weaving together storybook romance and floral artistry.
The bridal bouquet was an enchanting mix of vibrant and pastel hues, showcasing a spectrum of seasonal floral varieties. Daisies, Roses, and Dahlias danced in unison, creating harmonious floral beauty to complement the natural charm of the gardens.
Sunflowers, imbued with sentimental significance, found a special place in a separate bouquet, a touching tribute to the groom's mother. Carefully positioned, these radiant blooms became a poignant memory woven into other floral arrangements and the intricate fabric of the day.

Elise and Connor's summer celebration unfolded at the 14th-century Hospitium in York, overlooked by the striking ruins of Grade 1 Listed St. Mary’s Abbey. The stone-built ground floor, cooled by the shadows of towering columns, created a dreamy space to dress with wedding flowers.
Elise envisioned a romantic tale spun with literary charm and floral enchantment. She chose an autumn colour palette of soft pink, pastels, and corals, adding warmth and richness to every botanic element and harmonising with the seasonal tones.
