Anyone else loving mini bridesmaid’s bouquets at the mo? Lightweight and super cute for the ceremony… then perfect to pop in a mini vase for the wedding breakfast. Instant decor! Voilà!👌🏻These shots from just keep on giving…

Still crushing on the previews of this wedding… the full album is going to be next level…

The first look. I love when a couple take a few moments to themselves to appreciate their reception space; so much time goes in to planning a preparation so why shouldn’t you indulge for a few minutes?! It’s probably the only time you’ll spend together all day anyway 😂 Fabulously captured by at the wonderful

Just a little wedding this weekend, so had a few left over bits to use to get creative! Florists get so much grief for ‘playing with flowers’, but today I lived up to that stereotype!

Just over a year since these two said ‘I do’, so it was time to remind myself of these awesome blooms; winter-into-spring vibes - flower-rich and minimal foliage 🫶🏼 was the perfect setting for an intimate ceremony in the traditional barn space, followed by all out party in the modern barn. I’d do it all again tomorrow 😍 Feel-good shots by

The calm before the most awesome of storms… two weddings down this year… about 50 to go. I. Am. Pumped 💪🏼 Just taking a couple of days away in Birmingham to visit Cadbury World and the Sealife Centre with my family and then it’s all systems go! Looking forward to spending many mornings setting up throughout the year and seeing the smiling faces that follow. Love this shot by last year. Looking forward to so much more awesomeness in 2024 👊🏻

It’s back! ******er is relaunching it’s wedding offering and I’m here with my oranges 🍊 and grapes with all the juicy feels! Springy-citrus snazziness is where it’s at! Pop down today until 3pm to see some fab suppliers, but also the Guildhall in all its glory! have organised a cracker! ******er

Make a statement with a spring ceiling installation; it may be drizzling outside (and had been FOREVER), but there’s no reason why the sun can’t shine indoors! The chandeliers park are beautiful as they are… or jazz them up for entrance wow-factor. Shot by

At a loose end this Mother’s Day weekend? Who better to start planning your wedding day with than the one you call Mum (and your husband or wife to be of course 😂). I’ll be at all weekend - it’s a fab venue if you want a traditional ceremony followed by a modern fairytale reception, or have your ceremony there and then follow it up with a party somewhere chilled. Somewhere like Sopley Lakes is the perfect balance where you can pop a tipi up and let loose… whatever your vibe, I’d love to chat!

26/02/2024

Think a little differently for Mother’s Day this year. Go for funky flower combos which aren’t stuffed full of foliage. Contemporary, intentional, designs with style and thought. There are 5 colour ways to choose from, all named after women in my family! They’re live on the website now, so get ordering! Prices start from £45 and there’s free delivery over £70 🙌🏻 💐

I love a bride with a vision. A bride who does things her own way and totally scraps the formalities or things you ‘should’ do on your wedding day. Tessa was one such awesome lady who came to me with a plan. With a ceremony held , she and husband-to-be, Bruno, were keeping their day small, surrounded by just a few special people, and wanted flowers to replicate our stunning New Forest surroundings. Cue foraged heather, seed heads, wax flower and not a rose in sight. Just brilliant. Captured by

I’ve heard a few people say that flowers at a wedding are a waste of money. Now, of course I am completely biased and 100% disagree for many reasons, but the main one is this. Flowers put smiles on faces. Fact. And what more could you want for your wedding day? coming up with the goods.

Here she is. The new snazz logo. 🍑 and 💜 Kept a little nod to the past with my old Bellissimo brushed font, but then went for pastel perfection 🥰 New van should be making an appearance March/April and she’s going to be rocking this baby 🤘🏻

Did you get engaged over Christmas and New Year? If so, many congratulations! Let’s get cracking on the details for your wedding vision - I guarantee I’ll be as excited as you are! Carly and Dominic knew exactly what they wanted for their day and Carly was totally the creative genius behind this wedding - I just helped make it happen! Drop me a message if you’d like to arrange a consultation - I still have some availability in 2024 and lots of space in 2025, so let’s get on it 💪🏼Bringing the photography game

We’ve made it! Sailed in to 2024 revived and ready to absolutely smash wedding flowers for all my cracking couples this year! First on the grid is the last wedding of 2023 with E&K keeping it intimate between Christmas and New Year. Bring on the weddings (big and small!) for this season 💪🏼 Beaut pics by .co.uk

Something a little different for my final wedding of the year! All designs were dried, so were delivered a few days in advance and then taken with Emily and Kieran to Millbrook Cottages & Estate along with everything else they needed for the perfect intimate wedding. Just stunning 🤩

I AM STILL ALIVE! Sometimes the social media needs a break. I also don’t think anyone wants to see pics of me sat around in my pjs or alternatively, loads of staged pics of floristry I haven’t been doing! But now I’m coming up for air, as 2024 approaches, it’s time to look ahead to a New Year refresh. I’m starting with a rebrand! The same Willow and Wisps awesomeness, but a little less minty in colour! This also means a new, bigger van for all those cracking flowers, but in the meantime, I’ll share phase one: The Colour Palette. Stay tuned for more rebrand updates! #2024

About bloody time! Proud of me and all I do! Thank you to those who’ve helped me along the way. The wedding industry is tough and being a florist in the wedding industry is even tougher, but anyone who knows me will agree that I don’t make things easy for myself and always give my all 💪🏼 So mega pat on the back. I am awesome

Apologies for going off grid for a bit, but I am still here! I’ve been freelancing for some other fab florists while I take a break from weddings. In that break I’ve had time to look back at some awesome weddings from the season and thought it was about time I shared some of these crackers from Pylewell by the super talented . Just one wedding left this year and then it’s time to really hunker down and get that tax return done!

‘The one where the flowers were awesome’. That backdrop with those flowers. Hello! Romantic classic with a modern twist? Done ✅ Epic suppliers? No problem ✅ Excellent awesomeness to the max

When I’m at my best as a florist, my work is actually pretty moody and masculine. Buck the trend and be moody with me…

As the dust settles on Valentines Day, I’m looking forward to next month and my first four weddings of the year. I’ll be back at my absolute favourite, , as well as and . Can’t wait to get creative for all my couples this year! Bring on 2023 💪🏼

The W&W version of wintry navy and burgundy; chuck in some n**e and a beautiful mustard Pimms rose et voila! 👌🏻 Made these little beauts for a fab showcase Award Winning UK Wedding Venue & Gardens] last weekend and they look awesome in the pavilion space (especially with those new cross back chairs 😉).

Finally got to see these amazing images by from N&O’s wedding at the end of last season at the always stunning . White and green with a hint of navy - absolutely timeless. This arch was a beauty to create with the help of and - Ollie looks pretty please with it at least!

Nearly two years ago, in the midst of lockdown, I got a group of amazing suppliers together to do a shoot that was all about colour. It was also about creating an achievable and affordable (but still awesome) look. We did an amazing job. BUT. Can I get anyone to share this collaboration?! No. So, the time has come to tag and share to the max and show all those blogs what they’re missing!

Happy New Year! 🥳 I don’t mind the cold, but who stole the sun?! Here’s some sunny flowers from Sophie’s wedding in autumn of last year to brighten your January! If you got engaged over Christmas, my diary for 2024 is open, so please get in touch to discuss your ideas and secure your date before it’s gone!

So often at this time of year, you read posts asking to be taken back to the summer… but let’s stick with the winter for a bit because it can be awesome for a wedding! Heather and Dan created the cosiest of vibes last year. A mass of foraged foliage from the estate, teamed with a little bleached ruscus and eucalyptus, created a stunning canopy above their guests. Pair that with some super styling from and I reckon winter can stay…❄️ Beaut of a pic captured by
