Lots of seasonal preparations happening at the moment, with winter fast coming into sight and the diary for Christmas installs and workshops rapidly filling up.

I’m excited to be back at Maze next week creating their new winter windows for their beautiful Bristol store.
These photos are from a previous window install I did for Maze, captured by Tayla Nebesky. It was packed with dried flowers carefully selected to create a wintery feel alongside red rose hips for contrast.
Im excited to bring a whole new look to next weeks install 💫

My dearest friend Hunter has been telling me chrome has been making a come back for about 5 years now, I’ve been sitting very happily with brass my go to metal accent ..But this year ive finally been ready to embrace the cool steely tones and have loved incorporating it into events 🤍🩶🤍🩶🤍

I recently received a great mood board and brief from Leila -Perhaps I could make the metal scrunch metal vases for her event? Challenge accepted. Here are the trials, studio scenes and sunshine.
I’m a maker at heart and materials of all sorts are a natural outlet of creativity so this was right up my street 🩶💿

Some truly epic Dahlia’s from the cutting garden to brighten up a very wet day in Somerset. 💛🤩
Some of the new Dahlia varieties I have added this year have been seriously good…. Details of these below!

The dahlia season and my own cutting garden supply of fresh flowers is soon to draw to a close and I will turn my eyes to other autumnal events and commissions and the big C… thanks for the enquiries for festive wreath workshops - these are soon to go live! (Dm me if you also want the link sent to you before I publish them here!)

Dahlias -
Aspire fancy - but I seem to have a blush version without the red which is no bad thing 👌
Freya’s paso doble - this has been incredibly productive and I love that intense yellow centre.
Normandie wedding day - so much more blush than the online photo. Another good surprise versus the online picture!

When we do flowers for a wedding day, hour upon hour is spent thinking, sketching, spreadsheeting, and planning for weeks, months (even years) in advance of the big day, then prepping and creating in the studio for days in advance, and then comes the exhilaratingly physical and logistical task to skilfully weave everything perfectly together in a short space of time on the day - making it look completely effortless of course, - and then it’s all over in a flash.

I’m typically left with some snaps on my iPhone knowing they don’t do justice to how good it looked in real life. So it’s always the biggest treat to see the day captured through a professional photographers lens…. did such a brilliant job capturing Ellie and Charlie’s beautiful Wiltshire wedding in August.

There was such care and kindness throughout the planning and such joy and happiness throughout the wedding, set in a stunning family home and the prettiest softest palette to work with

This is such a beautiful time for a wedding as summer fades and the season’s shift. Soft tonal blooms with golden turning leaves. This is Abigail’s bouquet that gave me huge joy creating when working with such perfect seasonal ingredients 🤎

I am excited to be working with to be creating stunning floral displays and helping set the scene at Pythouse Kitchen Garden for an inspiring wedding showcase on the 5th October where it’s an opportunity to meet carefully selected suppliers against the backdrop of Pythouse and Hatch house including estate tours and a feast from the fire. 🔥

Friday was spent with Trilbey in her most recently completed London project - the design and finishing on this private residence is on another level.

I created unique dried flower arrangements for many of the rooms working into awesome sculptural vases selected by Trilbey. This large arrangement sits in the lacquered dining room… it’s a room il now always dream about..

Certainly the largest hand tie bouquet I have ever made, every beautiful stem from the cutting garden giving such joy to me cutting and arranging them and then to the recipient who receives them.

Swipe for the colour palette inspiration reference -just a rather well known local garden….

always captures the light so beautifully. This was an arrangement a few weeks ago part of the ceremony backdrop with trailing amaranthus, sanguesorba, feather top grass (pennisetum villosum), and licorice foliage (Glycyrriza yunnanensis). Along with Radicchio that forever now has a place in a vase… 🥬

A first glimpse at just some of what we created this weekend for the beautiful wedding of Ellie and Charlie in Wiltshire. Here the marquee dressed with pole wraps, large hanging hoop above the bar and the prettiest table styling.

We relocated the meadow arrangements from the church aisle after the ceremony to add further decoration to the central bar 🌸💕🌸💕

Ceremony scenes…

Steel cylinder vases block filled with single varieties and grouped on mass. It gave real definition and ability to see the flower varieties which is really effective. Plinths were topped with sculptural arrangements mixing flowers and edibles - such amazing textures to work with!

After the ceremony the backdrop stayed in situ, guests moved for drinks at the gallery, and the Roth team and LUNARIA were busy in the pavillion, the space was flipped to host the reception so this set up stayed as decoration in the space.

Little glimpses from the studio and cutting garden these last few days.. bringing amazing flowers and edibles together for todays wedding - I can’t wait to share more…

So.... calla lily.. retro or hyper modern. Well they are back (did they go or did I just ignore them?) Well used right (this is key!) then I am loving them, such sculptural form. I even grew some!

Breaking my month long social media silence and showing my actual face at the same time -hello!
Quiet here typically means busy IRL, and it’s been a fantastic jam packed month so now there is lots to share!

So on Saturday I popped-up at the summer fete in Bruton my hometown.
I chose to focus on my commissions and events this year, and give retail a bit of a back seat, but when invited to take part in such a fab community event it’s impossible to say no, not only was it packed with local businesses, raised money for local charities including the brilliant and my sons primary school PSA, but with the Phylidda Barlows exhibition, The Oudolf field (The garden by Piet Oudolf) and the new cocktail bar by .somerset it mixed proper old fashioned English nostalgia with serious Somerset cool - what a day!

Thank you to all who came and said hi, bought flowers, discussed commissions and asked about LUNARIA.
It felt great to be turning up with bucketloads of my fresh and beautiful flowers, grown just up the road, my special dried arrangements, and be sharing my small business 💛

Thank you 📷 Clare Walsh Photography

Vases all ready and waiting to be positioned as part of the ceremony backdrop this summer for Fi & Sam in the Radic pavilion @hauserwirthsomerset. The bloom varieties were kept separate for striking block impact. The steel cylinder vases were made by a friend of the bride and groom👌 The vintage coupes were from my husbands great great grandfathers cafe & gelateria that served Galashiels for several generations, so using those was pretty special too 🥰

Today is bright and dry in Somerset, a perfect day to gather wild clematis, its fluffy seed heads and twisting vines make its way into many of my autumn winter designs. The hedgerows are packed with it at this time of year and it’s always best to gather sooner rather than later to get the best quality, - and before the local farmers cut all the hedges making it impossibly hard to reach 😆

With all this sunshine it’s finally full swing dahlia season with all the new varieties I put in the cutting garden this year. Many plants had a slow start and are just getting going so it’s an absolute treat to start working with them. I am loving this dreamy palette!

Happy anniversary Olivia & Sam, I always love looking back at your beautiful August wedding @atthechapel - dreamy in every way! 🤍🤍🤍

Note to self - Asclepias seed pods, not for drying. I came back to the studio to find some left over stems had exploded rather dramatically….everywhere. But too pretty not to capture. Like little fireflies ✨

The making of! I never shared this last year so here it is.. the stop frame capture of the creation of the RHS Letters 2023. Hard work, great team, great weather and a bold design. Thanks @the_rhs for the opportunity 💫💛

Dried flowers and twiggy bits. Floral displays for @houseoffraser

Gah if you haven’t gone and stuck yourself right in or under a magnolia tree yet I’d really recommend it before all the petals drop. Birdsong and an abundant cloud of beautiful blooms. It really is a spring highlight
