Getting to know... Downham Hall

Credit: Laura Jane Photography

The Orangery at Downham Hall with its olive-green walls was the perfect backdrop to this fresh, elegant, styled shoot. Shoot organiser, Charmaine Taylor describes the day. "The inspiration behind this shoot started out with the idea of curating a modern, stylish and intimate wedding breakfast, with a colour palette of greens. I didn't want the green of the floral arrangements to come too much from foliage, so instead I focused on strong tonal flowers such as hydrangeas, viburnum and mollucella, along with adding in fresh moss in place of foliage.Pops of white florals such as striking delphiniums and seasonal anemones enhanced the display and made the colour pop even more. The designs were modern in style, with asymmetrical displays, mini meadows mixed with bud vases and lots of florals to adorn the cake table."
