CEREMONY FEELS
Those smiles and butterflies when you know you are about to be married to your special someone; and of course a surrounded by beautiful flowers. It’s priceless.
FLOWER PLAY SESSION 2
This one has been living in my head rent free for probably close to a year. I wanted to get doors and make a beautiful overgrown garden swirling and whirling around them. They make you want sneak through them and discover the amazing adventure that awaits.
Think entrance to an aisle. Think ceremony back drop. Think photo back drop. Think fantasy forest shoot.
Loved making it! Can I make something like it for you?
FLOWER PLAY, SESSION 1
Ingredients- pink cosmos and chocolate cosmos
Home grown.
Evening play so the lighting doesn’t show off the velvet color of the chocolate cosmos great.
What she looses in stem strength and durability, she makes up for with her prettiness.
Foam free as always xx
FLOWER PLAY!
I love what I do, but in between jobs… my hands itch to play.
To have no restrictions or restraints. To try out ideas, play around with colors, textures, flowers I might not work with much. To practice, practice, practice. To have some me time. To meditate with my hands.
It gets me excited. So I decided to do it more, and share what I create with no one to guide me but me!
Keep an eye out for what I make, and let me know what you think.
And remember to stop and smell the flowers,
Steph xx

You are already so loved especially by your big brother Heath. Thank you for coming just a tad quicker and easier than your brother for me so we could get home the next morning to meet everyone!
BLOOMS TO CELEBRATE MY BABY BUMP
We interrupt your usual wedding content for the maternity shoot I didn’t know if I would have time for, but I’m so glad I did!
Wearing flowers is fun and ethereal and fairy like no matter where or why you wear them. But celebrating my last few days of pregnancy with them is even more special. All home grown in our garden.
We can’t wait to meet you little man!!!!
BEST FRIEND WEDDING ACCESSORIES
Pups are always a welcome addition at any wedding- after all, they are our best friends!
I loved making this little collar for Maus to wear on special day!!!
She trotted down the aisle to her favorite people perfectly fully adorned with her pink tutu as well!
What a good puppy!!!
SUMMER CROWN FOR SARAH
When your brides mum contacts you last minute to ask for a fun flower crown for her Hens night- of course you say yes!!
Love me a good crown! Happy Hens
Can’t wait to do your wedding blooms next week!

1 YEAR AGO…
A year ago today I created my beautiful flower model for show case .
It was one of the craziest things I have ever done, and I went into it having no idea what I was doing and just going with the flow and playing to my strengths.
Not only did I come away with some pretty special awards, I made some pretty special friends like (who reminded me it had been a year when I saw their post 😉) and the wonderful who I have gone on to freelance for and can’t thank them enough for all the fun wedding bump ins I have helped with.
I couldn’t have done it without my wonderful husband who helped me set up until the wee hours of the morning and who supports me and my flowering work everyday.

All the pretty personal flowers with a wild touch for S and J on Monday.

My little nephews 1st birthday party was today, and I got to jungle up the party arena with some “non flower” flower installation and vases!

SUGARPLUM FAIRY MEETS MAY GIBBS
These bouquets I made for Bec and her maids for her stunning winters day wedding were so sweet.
I loved how Bec gave me a few inspo photos, requested some gumnuts, told me the color of the bridesmaid dresses and just let me create!
I honestly think you would never be disappointed if you give me freedom to create.
Thank you for trusting me Bec, and happy wedding day!!!
THE GALA 2023
Last night I flowered (and attended) my 2nd a night to get dressed up and raise money for the Victorian Cancer Council.

Big shout out to the organizer Kate, for putting on an amazing night and for trusting me with the flowers 💐

WHAT’S THE LOST IMPORTANT INGREDIENT IN THE BOUQUET? The drama? The local heroes? The supporting act? The freshest foliage? The home grown goodies? The foraged fancies? Or is it the inspo photo? It’s none of these things. It’s the florist. Why? Every florist will do it differently. Choose the right florist for you- the one who’s flowers call to you and aligns with what you want on your day, and they will make sure the flower magic happens- because they want the flower magic as much as you do!

AN ARBOR LOVE AFFAIR Standing back and looking at this completed arbor left me very emotional. Knowing I was able to create something so pretty, that it fulfilled the brief but still had a bit of me in it meant so much. To make something for one of my best friends to stand under on one of the most important and special days of her life as she married the man of her dreams- how do you top that? #weddingarborlove #newflorist #yarravalleywedding #foamfree #nofloralfoam #whiteandblushandromance
