What is your most memorable wedding?
Laura & Wayne - June 2023. This is a very memorable day firstly because it was one of the first bookings we took as Bouquets n Bunches and secondly... I got to deliver and setup their table centres with all the amazing gin bottles they and their friends had collected. It was also a wedding full of colour and wildness held at Rockbeare Manor. Their colours were absolutely amazing within the elegant pale interior of Rockbeare.
