SUSTAINABLY SWEET Flower arches at weddings are increasingly popular, but how sustainable are they? What if you had a ceremonial arch that you could plant afterwards? Rosie from Rosedale Botanics has created handwoven willow frames that support up to 80 potted plants to create a sustainable, eye-catching display. The arches are bespoke, allowing you to choose the shape, size and plants used. Although breathtaking alone, you could also choose to add flowers. Rosie came up with the concept after seeing the devastating waste of cut flowers and plastic displays at weddings. With these beautiful arches, you and your guests can select your favourite plants at the end of the day to take home and plant as an everlasting keepsake.
