Some seriously gorgeous photos from this stunning day, and the most wonderful words from an even more wonderful couple 💫🫧

“We were absolutely blown away by Katie’s artistic floral arrangements: statement moon arch, marquee ladder and chandelier installations, beautiful aisle meadows, bud vases and much more. Throughout the consultations, Katie was so knowledgable. We wanted seasonal flowers and we were amazed at all these beatiful home grown varieties! Katie’s passion for flowers has definitely rubbed on us! Thank you Katie for bringing our ideas to life (and adding your wonderful flair to it) and being so adaptable to any changes we made. All our guests commented how gorgeous the flowers were. It really brought the space to life! Katie has incredible talent - we highly recommend Katie as your florist. You won’t be disappointed!”

Excited for some stunning weddings lined up this month, where we’ll be including beautiful peonies to kick off the summer season!

Hello lovelies!! I’m Katie, the face behind Darling Buds of KJ!

It’s long overdue for a post about me, so for those new to following me, I am mad about all things flowers and am passionate about creating stunning floral designs that turn couples’ dreams into reality!

I love long country walks and indulging in cozy pub lunches with my gorgeous dog and husband. ✨ Exploring the world and wining and dining are my absolute favourites! 🌎 🍷

Throwback to our unforgettable Santorini trip last October where we were all obsessed with this fabulous hat!! Naturally, we couldn’t resist taking turns to try it on!

Thanks for the photo ! 😘
