St Audries Park is a stunning country house wedding venue set within the Somerset countryside, known for its sweeping grounds, grand interiors and romantic spaces throughout the house. The light filtering through the large windows and the soft colours of the florals created a beautiful atmosphere, setting the tone for a relaxed yet stylish celebration.
Bridal Bouquet
The bridal bouquet was designed to feel natural, textural and full of movement. A layered mix of seasonal stems created a bouquet that felt modern and organic, with deep colour tones that complemented the overall styling of the day. The design balanced elegance with a slightly untamed feel, making it perfect for a bride who wanted something romantic but a little different from traditional wedding florals.
Buttonholes
The groom and his groomsmen wore textural buttonholes that tied in with the palette and style of the bridal bouquet. Each piece was carefully designed with small seasonal elements and soft foliage, creating subtle but beautiful details across the wedding party. These little floral touches helped bring everything together while still feeling relaxed and contemporary.
Orangery Ceremony
The ceremony took place in the beautiful orangery at St Audries Park. To frame the space, we created floral bowls displayed on elegant plinths, alongside two large urn arrangements which brought height and softness to the setting.
The florals were designed to complement the natural light that fills the orangery, creating a romantic atmosphere while allowing the surrounding gardens to remain part of the view. The bowls and urns gave structure to the ceremony space while keeping the design soft, seasonal and full of movement.
The Grand Staircase
One of the most iconic features of St Audries Park is the sweeping staircase. Florals were placed here to add a soft decorative moment within the house, creating a lovely focal point and a beautiful setting for guests as they moved through the venue.
Wedding Breakfast
For the wedding breakfast, the florals were thoughtfully repurposed to bring continuity throughout the day. Floral bowls were placed along the tables, adding soft colour and texture to the reception space without overwhelming the setting.
The ceremony urns were also moved into the room to frame the space once again, creating impact around the couple’s table. Meanwhile, the bridal and bridesmaids’ bouquets were displayed on the mantelpiece, turning them into part of the overall styling and ensuring the flowers continued to be enjoyed throughout the evening.
