Amy & Chet: Blithewold Mansion, Bristol, RI

Amy & Chet got married at Blithewold Mansion in Bristol, RI.  Blithewold is a gorgeous venue made up of lush gardens, a historical mansion, and views of Narragansett Bay.  Amy wanted to use similar flowers in her bouquets and centerpieces to the flowers growing in the garden all around the venue.

Bride's bouquet of dahlias, stock, ranunculus, freesia, and queen anne's lace.


Bridesmaid bouquets of dahlias, roses, stock, freesia, and queen anne's lace.




 Amy collected various sized milk vases to use in the centerpieces.


 Each table had a different mix of vases.  
The bride wanted mirrors in the center of the tables to reflect the candle light.


The centerpieces were made up of dahlias, snapdragons, stock, roses, freesia, ranunculus and queen anne's lace.


 Unfortunately some pretty strong thunderstorms rolled in right before the ceremony, 
so the ceremony and cocktail hour were held inside the mansion.



I really like these pedestal style vases.  It has a very English garden, vintage feel.



Congratulations to Amy & Chet - I hope the rain didn't last long!
