Providing trend setting, inspirational floral designs is our "Big Thing" it's what we're about and it's

what gets us up in the morning. Our signature style embodies Seasonal and British blooms, combining natural palettes of colours, textures and scents with the odd Mad Lilies quirkism thrown in for good measure.

OUR NEW LOOK

So here it is our brand new signage for the shop?

Who knew how much would go into getting us to this point, but have been holding our hand for the last couple of months helping us to really understand how we’re viewed by you our customers and formulating a brand strategy that truly understands who we are, tells our story and helps us to understand what it is that you love about the shop, allowing us to connect and market ourselves with more like minded customers.

Many insightful focus groups and customer telephone interviews later this is the Brand Narrative that have arrived at and I think it’s pretty spot on – what do you think?

…There’s a florist on the High Street in Banstead. There’s a lifestyle and homewares store, social hub, gin appreciation society, and village telegraph too. They’re all at the same address, all open pretty much every day, but all far from every day. Stocked with the most beautiful local blooms and staffed by the loveliest people, Mad Lilies is already a village institution. It’s as different each day as the people who come in through the door, as fresh as the flowers delivered from the best growers and as full of joy as the shelves packed full of must have homewares. The original inspirational florist Lily was the grandmother of the current founder. Two generations later, the current Lily doesn’t share the name but she does have the same passion for beautiful blooms, artisan creativity, delighted customers and a bit of cheeky chat.

The next chapter is well and truly underway and we still have so much more to share with you all, so watch this space …

New Signage Incoming

Finally tomorrow we get our new signage and we’re super excited. We’ve been working with a fabulous Belfast design agency Pale Blue Dot on our new branding for our store which we are very excited to share with you over the coming months as we start to implement into our signage, packaging and marketing and which we hope to have rolled out fully by September.

Its taken us time to get just right and we are incredibly grateful for all the feedback from you our customers via telephone interviews and customer surveys which has allowed us to gain a greater insight into how you view Mad Lilies and more importantly how we need to position ourselves and communicate with you going forward. So lots to come over the coming weeks and months as we journey into our next chapter, we hope you love as much as we do.

Many of you’ve asked for us to put together a perfect Teachers Gift so we’ve teamed up our pretty box set of three Garden Trading recycled glass bottles and filled them with pretty Daisy Tanacetum finishing off with a cute Thank You Card.
Surely this beats the unoriginal box of chocs and is worthy of a gold star from that favourite teacher this term.

IN THIS WEEKS NEWS

We made it to the sunny side of the street and opened our doors at Nos 127 on Thursday to glorious sunshine, so much so we had to do a dash to the garden centre to get a parasol as our new awning is not going up till next week.
We have been genuinely overwhelmed and want to thank each and every one of you for coming to visit and supporting us in our next chapter in our new home.
Your wonderful feedback, words of support, encouragement, cards and champagne have been the perfect tonic for a very tired team who have worked their socks off in the last month to make this move possible, so we want you to know we really do appreciate it.
And finally we know we may look like the shop with no name at the moment but we hope to get our new signage up in the next couple of weeks, just as soon as we finalising our new branding.
Many of you completed our survey, took part in focus groups and telephone interviews about Mad Lilies, telling us what you loved about the shop, areas of the business we could look to improve, potential brands you think would be a good fit for us and also told us if Mad Lilies was a celebrity who you think we would be (this particular answer made for very interesting reading!)
All this feedback is invaluable and being used to help us develop our new shop branding and develop how we will market ourselves and communicate with everyone going forward. And we hope to share with you very soon, so watch this space.

It’s our last day at Nos 84

If the walls of this building could talk - Oh the stories they would tell. It feels like no time at all since I walked in to view the shop to buy which is in fact over 13 years ago. The memories have all started flooding back of all the times the team and I have shared here and with you our wonderful customers. There are a million happy memories locked away that will serve me a lifetime but it will be with a tear in my eye when I close the door tonight and bid farewell and say thank you to Nos 84 this wonderful building we have called home.

And then we will be onto our next chapter as we open the doors of Nos 127 on Thursday.

Thank you everyone for joining us on the journey so far …. I think the best may be just about to come 🤞

REPURPOSING
Is always a good idea and ensures your flowers and budget are working super hard for you. The ceremony is obviously the most important part of your day it’s where you say ‘I Do’ after all. Even if it’s only 45 minutes of your day - the flowers, the backdrop, the memories are absolutely key to be caught on camera.
The main part of your day and where your guests will spend the majority of their time will be the reception, so it is ideal if you can repurpose your ceremony flowers to this space. For Kelly & Dan we repurposed the living aisle from the ceremony to the marquee to dress the the ends of the long tables and the urns of tumbling flowers from the front of the ceremony were placed at entrance to the marquee to welcome guests as they entered.
Repurposing can be a faff and not all florists will offer this option as it requires a team to stay on site until after the ceremony to get everything moved around. We will always offer this option to you and encourage the reuse of as many flowers as possible, as where there’s a will there’s a way.

Life in Flowers

At Mad Lilies we pride ourselves on providing you the very best quality flowers, impeccable service and exquisite floristry for all your floral needs. Our store, on Banstead high street, is a treasure trove of fresh flowers, homewares, candles and bath and body products. From this home we run workshops throughout the year and create designs for events, styling, contracts, funerals and of course a big passion of ours, weddings!

We offer trend setting, inspirational floral designs and it's this drive and dedication that gets us up in the morning.

Our signature style celebrates seasonal and British blooms, combining natural colour palettes, textures and scents with our quirky Mad Lilies touch thrown in for good measure. We take our main inspiration from the great outdoors as we move through the seasons selecting the most luxurious blooms to showcase.

Our highly qualified Mad Lilies team is led by our owner, Alison, who took over the business in 2013. As creative director Alison works closely with top suppliers and the team to ensure that every customer receives second to none flowers, service and quality – whatever their floral needs.
