Sakura Theme

Sakura… The emblem of Japan, the delicate and iconic flower we know as the Cherry Blossom. Only flowering for a short time during Spring, this perfect, pale pink flower is ideal for creating a feminine and romantic atmosphere at your Wedding.

Think scatters of fallen blooms, lining the aisle, bunches of sweet perfumed blossoms adorning your tables and cute fondant life-likes decorating your cake. The Cherry Blossom is a motif that can be used throughout, to tie each of your unique elements together. Why not invite your guests with a personalised Sakura Invitation… A real treat to receive in ones mailbox, creating an air of anticipation and excitement. Throw a few lashings of chocolate Brown into the mix and tie in the natural beauty of this oriental flower. Paper lanterns for effect, mini mint-tins complete with their own Blossom motif for favours and Bridesmaids gowns to match the pretty pink tone. Your guests will immediately be whisked away to the heart of Kyoto!

Who would have thought a single flower would be so inspiring… Why not borrow a little Japanese hospitality and customise your Wedding day with the Sakura. A sure fire way to keep this pretty flower blossoming long after Spring has sprung. ♥
