BERRY & TWEED

Hello again lovelies! I’m super happy at the mo – my favourite season has arrived…I’m sure it’s partly to do with my Birthday falling in October, but I love Autumn and especially the colours! The warm and rich jewel tones that fill the countryside and show off nature at its colourful best are an absolute treat to the eye. Along with these, the produce that’s on offer at this time of year match the colours perfectly. Particular all the delicious berries that are abound! Obviously with berry being a main feature in Goose&Berry name, it seems only natural that this would be a stunning Autumnal inspiration for your wedding. Matched with this is one of my other favourites – Tweed (you should see my wardrobe – it’s like a country chic/Downton-esque heaven!). The berry hues and the natural tones of tweed pair beautifully together and bring a fabulous rustic feel to an Autumn wedding.

Use berries for your food and drink – cute canapés such as mini Yorkshire puds, with beef and a blackberry. Berry tartlets and berry martini. Also think about adding them into your décor; in floral displays; they add an extra dimension to colour and textures. There are some truly stunning flowers that have rich wine, aubergine, raspberry and plum tones. Mix together and let your bouquet and displays come alive! Add in some wine or aubergine coloured crockery and glassware for that extra pop of colour. A bold berry lip would look stunning upon a bride and perhaps added with a berry coloured floral crown – dreamy. Added to tweed materials, think tweed, tartan or plaid table runner, linen or napkins and the groom and ushers in a tweed suit. Quite the country gent and a great alternative to a traditional morning suit that can be worn again! You could also add in a few blankets – your guests will thank you on those Autumnal evenings! Right…I’m off to pick some sloes to make some gin!
