All-White Flowers
Contemporary yet utterly timeless, all-white wedding flowers are eternally chic. We love the fresh feel an all-white colour palette brings to your big day, and it’s a look you can work whatever time of year you get married. Mix and match white blooms in a variety of textures for a modern effect. We are big fans of these statement floral arrangements featuring fluffy dahlias and carnations, alongside voluminous hydrangea and sculptural orchids. Perfect for adding interest to the top of the aisle or framing your wow-factor wedding cake.

English Country Garden Wedding Flowers
A barn wedding is the perfect style of venue to channel an English Country Garden feel. Aim for a ‘just gathered from a meadow’ look with a mishmash of wildflowers in pretty pastel shades. Trailing foliage adds volume and texture for large floral displays, while single-stem blooms look effortlessly beautiful displayed in glass jars lining the aisle for an outdoor ceremony. Look to the season and pick your flowers to suit the time of year.

Boho-Luxe Dried Flowers
This real wedding at The Barns at Delbury Hall was a masterclass in boho-luxe. Fluffy pampas grass is mixed with dried wheat and roses to create a quirky take on wedding blooms. We love the warm, café au lait colour scheme, which looks right at home against the rustic beams and exposed brick of our Coach House Barn.

Sweet and Simple Daisies
There’s something about daisies that just sparks joy. These cheerful flowers are a perfect match for a relaxed barn wedding, adding a feel-good vibe to any big day. Our real bride and groom have made daisies the star of the show in the bridal bouquet and floral arrangements for their fun-filled summer wedding. Paired with sprigs of gypsophila and flashes of orange, it’s a simple way to bring the sunshine (even if it rains!).

And for Something Completely Different…
Looking for a unique way to dress your reception tables at your barn wedding? Take inspiration from our real couple who opted for cool and quirky potted plants in place of floral arrangements. They also used plants as their table plan for guests to find their seats. We love the original approach, and so did their guests!
