If grand country house is your vibe (think Bridgerton or Downton) then check out this magical setting in rural Hampshire yet just an hour from London. This family owned house set in rolling parklands has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to designing your perfect day. The Georgian splendour of the architecture works as a backdrop for classic or contemporary floral design. Scroll down for some inspiring ideas from our photography editorial.​

My inspiration for this delicate bridal bouquet was the fluid fabric of the wedding dress. The liquid pooling satin created movement, light and dark, softnesses and edges. To echo this lightness, I worked with ephemeral flowers in soft winter whites and creams to make a bridal bouquet that would work brilliantly for a petite bride.

The historic Orangery at Avington Park works for both your ceremony backdrop and the reception. We opted for long banqueting tables for this editorial but round tables work too in this space. For the table-scape, black velvet ribbons added to the black tie vibe together with Italian lace edge ceramic charge plates and matt gold cutlery from The Luxe Collection. The florals needed to be delicate yet tall to maximise the impact created with the vintage chandeliers from Crescent Moon and the gorgeous draping from Drap.d

I am absolutely here for the 'Married at First Sight- Australia' floral style - it's all about Flowers and greenery does'nt get invited to the party. For this ceremony set up in the Orangery at Avington Park, I took the idea of flower only design and created a set of plinth arrangements that were delicate, tonal and feathery.

The Pink Drawing room at Avington Park is a gilded wonder from another era where folks dressed for dinner and passed the port! To complement this stunning pale pink satin and tulle dress by designer Mara Marie, I layered tones of shell pinks, ivories and whites and added a playful pop of scarlet as a colour pop accent.
