Epping in bloom presentation evening

Last night we held a fabulous Epping in bloom presentation evening at Epping hall.60 guests came along to support Epping in bloom.Guests included the school children winners, parents, Mayor Michael Wright, Epping town Councillors, school teachers along with members of the Epping horticultural society.Together we watched a presentation screen show from the pictures I have taken over the past 4 months since the planting day in May.Together we watched all the flowers grow into lovely jammed packed colorful flower beds.David Farmer played classical music on his guitar which added an extra special touch.We set up some ambient soft colorful lighting and added some dahlia flowers onto the tables along with scented pot potpourri which filled the room with a floral aroma.
