Following up from my post about using grasses in wedding arrangements and bouquets, I wanted to share some pictures of from Susanne at The Blue Carrot in Cornwall, one of the businesses listed in the flower section of the directory. She got in touch with me after the original blog post to say that she loves using grasses in her arrangements and to share a couple of pictures.
Thought you’d all like to see some on a dreary January afternoon! Any favourites?
I love these deep wine colours with the silvery green grasses and foliage, and the spray of blackberries too.
A white and green flower arrangement with dill flowers, furry grasses, white dahlias and a single white foxglove – gorgeous.
I love the yellow-orange nasturtium’s in this arrangement, especially alongside those big showy pink dahlias. More of those gorgeous silvery green grasses and poppy seedheads.
Another pretty yellow and white combination with silvery green foliage – aren’t those yellow poppies so delicate.
The added touches of peach and lilac in this one completely transform this pretty arrangement – it really does look like you’ve wandered through a beautiful country garden (I wish mine looked like this!) picked a little bit from here and there.
If you are getting married in Cornwall and love this natural style, why not get in touch with Susanne and see if The Blue Carrot could do your wedding flowers. Visit The Blue Carrot for more details or contact Susanne at susanne@thebluecarrot.co.uk.

I massively love wild looking flowers. Always drawn to them more than heavily structured arrangements. They just make me feel so happy when I look at them. Le sigh!

There is something really beautiful about wild looking flowers, I’m so pleased the wedding industry and brides have embraced them – I remember a time when a wedding bouquet was a tight ball of roses, I’m pleased we have more choice now 🙂

Susanne’s flowers are always absolutely beautiful. So cleverly presented to suit any occasion – I love them.
