I'm not quite ready for Christmas yet.
I like to take the seasons slowly - enjoying them as they come instead of feeling rushed, just because the shops say it's time. I know it's easy for me to say that, especially since I'm not running any wreath workshops, and am not making any more wreaths this year (aside from a few I make for family and friends).
Of course, I can't resist the warm twinkle of lights and all the sparkly decorations starting to appear everywhere - they always make me smile. But for now, I'm still holding onto autumn, letting it linger a little longer before winter gently settles in.

My attempt at arranging calendulas in a bowl didn't exactly go to plan- they were like cats, doing their own thing and refusing to behave the way I wanted!

Still, they're such a cheerful splash of colour on this dull November day. They're still flowering happily, even as the days get shorter, popping up in random spots around the cutting garden in their lovely, self-seeded jumble of colours.

Deep red hues and autumnal textures -
chrysanthemums from my lovely neighbour, paired with blooms from my cutting garden.
Despite flower season drawing to a close, I'm still finding enough treasures to indulge myself with a few arrangements.
I love working with what each season has to offer - if you'd like a bespoke seasonal arrangement, I'm always happy to create something special to order.

Dahlias in jewel tones stealing the show here.
I spent a lovely morning on Aizel's flower farm in the beautiful Blackdown Hills, creating with her this joyful autumnal arch using late-season blooms and greenery, all grown at the farm.
The arch was nestled between her cutting beds and shrubs, with an autumnal garden as a backdrop - a perfect spot for it.
For couples wanting to keep it natural and seasonal - would you like something similar for your wedding day?

Sunshine, an old orchard heavy with apples, a wedding dress, and seasonal, homegrown flowers. We spent a truly lovely afternoon with , capturing romantic photos in this beautiful Somerset orchard.
(Thank you Will for letting us use it)

All the flowers were grown either in my own cutting garden or by Lucy at ; nothing flown-in, just seasonal, local blooms at their best.

If this sounds like your kind of wedding blooms, I'd love to hear from you.

A jug of flowers freshly picked from the cutting garden. Warm, comforting colours. Unexpected find was this one flower of Iceland poppy - perfect match for the other blooms.

A front-facing bouqet in gentle autumnal pastels.
Flowers that can cope with shorter days are still blooming. Dahlias, cosmos, scabious and asters are accompanied by first of anemones. They have been planted early and are now flowering this autumn, instead of next spring. And they go so well with all the other blooms. Beautiful, seasonal companionship.

We've loved doing this relaxed wedding earlier in the summer, held in a private garden in Somerset. It was a collaborative affair with lovely Lucy supplying most of the flowers from her flower farm, just down the road from the venue (and helping with the arch, too). The rest of the flowers came from my cutting patch, and all the greenery was sourced locally. It was the request of the couple that all the flowers were in season and grown locally- which matches our ethos.

If you are getting married and if you too would love to have seasonal, locally grown flowers arranged for your wedding, please get in touch.
