Country Wedding in Magherally

November 4, 2018October 30, 2018 by ditsyfloral, posted in Uncategorized

Take a peak at these beautiful memories as Ruth & Thomas celebrate their first anniversary today. They were married in Magherally Presbyterian Church just outside Banbridge and celebrated at The Culloden Estate & Spa. Ruth chose a rich burgundy red colour for her bridesmaids dresses and I absolutely love the rich and velvety black baccara rose we chose to tone with the dresses as well as thistles and berries for autumnal texture.

Wildflowers & Wheat: a Rustic Wedding

August 28, 2018August 27, 2018 by ditsyfloral, posted in Northern Ireland Weddings, Real Weddings, Wedding Flowers

I love a wildflower wedding and when Mary married Jason last August in my home village of Loughbrickland, I got to mix fresh seasonal wildflowers in shades of lilac and lavender with a little bit of wheat for a nod to the season and the resulting bouquets were just fab!! Plus we had lots of pretty details with hair flowers, rustic buttonholes and gin bottle tablecentres!

Mary & Jason are celebrating their first anniversary today and I wanted to celebrate it by sharing some of their precious memories. Happy anniversary guys and thank you for choosing Ditsy Floral Design to be involved in your special day. Photos by Mark Barton Photography.

Sunshine & Happiness for a Spring Wedding in County Armagh

April 25, 2018April 25, 2018 by ditsyfloral, posted in Northern Ireland Weddings, Real Weddings, Wedding Florist, Wedding Flowers

So much love, happiness and sunshine remembered from Aisling & Gary’s real wedding on the 25 April last year in Kilmore Parish outside Richhill, County Armagh.

Aisling wanted to go ‘wild’ with the bride’s bouquet with lots of foliage texture and soft pink colours to match the bridesmaids lovely mid pink dresses. Pink Hydrangea was teamed with Sweet Avalanche roses, Sweet Dolomiti roses, lilac spray roses, astilbe, greenbell, a little Baby’s Breath and lots of silvery eucalyptus foliage for impact.

The boys wore natural style buttonholes with pink lisianthus, lilac rose, astilbe and foliages. Aisling told me people to this day nearly one year on still ask me who did my flowers! Awh it really was an absolute pleasure…love that I get to be involved in one of most special days of your life!

Happy Anniversary Mr & Mrs Henderson and thank you for sharing your memories with me and thank you for choosing Ditsy Floral Design as your wedding florist!
