Austin's Flowers - florist for all occasions

19/07/2024

A few years ago we had the privilege to donate centerpieces for a valentines charity gala in aid of

We created these fish bowl designs in varying shades of pink, using gerbera, roses and lisianthus, with salal and bear grass detail inside the vase. These were not just to make the tables pretty and smell amazing, they were also auctioned off during the event to raise more funds for this wonderful charity.

Is there anything more summery than a yellow gerbera?

A simple but stunning sheaf style, over the arm bouquet.

This beautiful bouquet is made to wear over the arm, rather than be held in front of you. These are reminiscent of pageant bouquets, and really allow the flowers to be showcased.

It's strange to think that such a beautiful rose would be called amnesia.
We think they are pretty unforgettable.

Mr and Mrs Fusedale chose to make their aisle a real statement for their big day, starting with two large entrance arrangements. Full of burgundy roses and carnations; blue delphinium, clematis and thistle; blush roses, carnations, lisianthus, stock, spray roses and wax flower; green chrysanthemum, two varieties of eucalyptus, ruscus and pistache!

Our petal runners on either side of the aisle accompanied by log slices and our realistic LED pillar candles in vases as their aisle markers. We loved how the sweet sign for their guests worked beautifully alongside the decor they hired from us.

Our gorgeous couple wanted a wow moment for the arch between the dining area and bar, framing their cake and the view beyond perfectly, creating a stunning moment for their guests on arrival!

We filled the arch arrangements with burgundy roses, carnations and hanging amaranthus; blue delphinium, clematis and thistle; blush roses, carnations, lisianthus, stock, spray roses and the gorgeously scented wax flower; green chrysanthemum blooms, two varieties of eucalyptus, ruscus and pistache.

For their top table a luscious, full garland reaching the floor on either end. At 16 foot it perfectly complemented the arch at the other end of the barn. Incorporating all of the same flowers, we also added burgundy peonies as a beautiful tribute to Georgie's nan.

For their centrepieces, our couple chose our vintage lanterns and candles, creating a romantic glow throughout the barn. We surrounded these with lush wreaths, full of the same flowers as the top table, these packed a lot of punch for low centrepieces!

When you want to go big we are here for it!

Our Bride Georgie wanted a large garden bouquet. We filled this with burgundy roses, peonies, carnations and astilbe, blue delphinium and thistle, blush garden roses, carnations, roses, stock, spray roses and wax flower; two varieties of eucalyptus and pistache.

The Bridesmaid's had smaller versions and whilst these were smaller than Georgie's bouquet, they were the same size that a lot of Bride's choose! Georgie also had 2 flower girls, with wax flower and red rose crowns, they were so cute!

We absolutely loved Harry's boutonniere! Made with a peach garden rose, burgundy rose and astilbe, white veronica, blue thistle and delphinium and two eucalyptus. We also created a smaller matching version for their son.

Harry is a great warning however! If you're a hugger, either wait to put your buttonhole on or get a back up made for your photos after all the hugs! Harry's didn't make it through the ceremony!

Our couple chose buttonholes with burgundy roses and blue thistle for their wedding party and thistle for the rest of their guests! We love the tradition of giving all your guests a buttonhole is coming back, it is a gift that includes all guests and the photos always look fabulous! They also wanted to include their lost loved ones in their day and chose to create each a buttonhole. These were displayed next to photos of their loved ones in our mixed bud vases with our candles.

And lets talk about how our couple listened to our advice on the amount of confetti they would need to get an amazing photo, took it on board and added even more!

The biggest thank you to Maryann at for these stunning photos.

The white rose will forever be a staple in wedding flowers. It's elegance is perfect as a stand alone, or complementing other blooms.

We loved making these flowers for Penny and Adam.

Penny wanted her flowers to be big and beautiful, and we think we hit the mark!

Her bouquet was absolutely full of roses, carnations, pompom gerberas, garden roses, astilbe, amaranthus, stock, veronica, eucalyptus and stachys!

Her Bridesmaids had smaller versions of her bouquet, carrying the same size as some of our other Wedding bouquets! With a size down for the Flower girls, every aspect of the wedding flowers were perfectly complementary.

Adam's Boutonniere was a gorgeous neutral toned garden rose, matched perfectly with a standard rose, astilbe, eucalypts and stachys.

We adored making these flowers for such a wonderful couple.

A massive thank you to Bloomwood Photography for these gorgeous photos.

As wedding suppliers, we all work together behind the scenes to make sure that your day is as perfect as it can be.

Here we provided the insanely talented Danielle at Victoria James Cake Design with roses for this stunning cake.

We spoke before the big day to ensure everything would be where it was needed, and in the condition Danielle would need for her to decorate with. And she did a phenomenal job with the roses we provided, a perfect addition to an already gorgeous cake. (We also know from experience, her cakes are divine).

Thank you to for this lovely photo.

Last year we had the absolute privilege to be a part of this photoshoot, creating these flowers for the ever talented Ross Willsher's book "celebrated".

These images were inspired by a poem in Ross's book called "a beautiful love", celebrating couples who do not have enough exposure nor recognition in the wedding industry. As an industry we need better representation for couples who sit outside of the supposed "norm" and being a part of this for us was a small step in the right direction.

The gorgeous Andie modelled this extra large waterfall bouquet for us. We created this bouquet with the intention for it to be able to sit beautifully across Andie's lap when she is in her wheelchair but also to still look gorgeous when she is standing holding it. We wanted it to look beautiful but also be comfortable with however it was held.

This arrangement was full of roses, germinis, lisianthus, astilbe, stock and eucalyptus. We chose neutral tones, bringing in peachy and toffee shades for a little pop of colour, and it smelled divine too!

Andie’s husband Collin modelled our buttonhole; created with a peach rose and astible, finished with eucalyptus, it sat beautifully against his light blue suit, and complemented the bouquet perfectly.

Thank you to everyone involved in this photoshoot.

We recreated this classic image from the Dark Side Of The Moon album in tribute to a huge Pink Floyd fan.

His friends wanted to give him something that truly represented him and his loves, and we think they chose a perfect and iconic tribute. We adore making these personalised funeral flowers, they come with so much love behind them.

We do love a Dahlia here, they are absolutely stunning, and make summers a little bit brighter.

We created this Tinker Bell tribute for a lovely young woman whose mum had always called her "her little Tinker Bell". A personal and perfect tribute to a much loved mum.

Standing at 3 foot tall, she is created entirely in flowers and foliage. We also included butterflies and plenty of glitter for her fairy dust to make sure the finishing touches brought the design to life.

Oh hello Orchid!
Cymbidium are a true premium flower, and whilst they may have a higher price tag, we think they are oh so worth it.

We loved dressing the Oak Pavilion at !
It really does frame that first kiss perfectly, and what a background to your confetti moment!

Our beautiful couple chose to make our silk arch bespoke to fit their wedding day! We created this arch with a selection of foliage, white hydrangea, roses, ranunculi and peonies, with additions of pink garden roses, roses and stargazer lilies in memory of a loved one sadly missed.

What an entrance for the new Mr & Mrs Farrington!

Our lovely couple chose our silk garlands to adorn the banisters to the staircase at the gorgeous , with candles leading down to their wedding breakfast. Simple but oh so very effective.

All of our silk installations are customisable, bespoke to your big day!

The finishing touch to Kyle and Beth's wedding, was a dream to create, idea curtesy of Beth!

This flower curtain was so much fun to make, and looked absolutely gorgeous behind their top table! With the benefit of being able to stay in place for the evening reception, Kyle and Beth were able to also use this as a backdrop for not only the big celebration, but also some wonderful group photos with family and friends.

We created this beauty with roses, gyp, veronica, carnations, eucalyptus and chrysanthemums, it didn't just look good, it smelt amazing too!

And can we have a bit of appreciation for how Jason used this to frame the first dance!? As if that moment needed to be even more magical, it somehow is!

We cannot thank enough for allowing us to use all of these beautiful photos from the Farringdon wedding.
