Pale yellow with grey is a new and sophisticated look for weddings this year; creating a fresh twist to the pastel theme taking over from the purple and navy of the past few years.

Norfolk florist Manda Huggins of Daisy Alley says the rustic feel to flowers is here to stay, and the chic colour combination of soft yellows and neutral grey hues brings it bang up to date.

She points out that pale yellow and silvery grey lends itself really well to succulents and eucalyptus, which is another trend adored by forward thinking florists and brides.
