N E X T * C H A P T E R // We would like to properly introduce Apexa, the new owner of Designer Daisies !!

Melanie & I started DD from our garage at home, then took the plunge to open the shop in 2012.
It has been a huge success, completing events in Harrods, London. Wedding for a Radio 1 newsbeat reporter & been crowned the East Midlands best wedding florist !

But, the time has come for Melanie to retire and hand the batons over to this fabulous young woman to take Designer Daisies to the next level.
While, for myself, I'll be continuing with my horticulture teaching two days a week and helping with the floristry in the shop, so you'll still see me 😀

There are lots of new and exciting changes happening for this little business & DD can't wait to share them with you, some of these include workshops, classes & competitions.

In over 12 years we have never closed the shop for holidays but with my dad just turned 70 and now have a little niece, we thought a holiday was in order.
We all had a fabulous time in the sun ☀️

S T A T E M E N T // Did you know we can move your floral arrangements during your big day ??

L & C chose this stack of rustic crates with a statement arrangement for their church wedding.
We then snuck in the side door at church (while they were having photographs) loaded the flowers into one of our vans then placed them at the venue.

Making it look like you have double the flowers 🤍

S C E N T // I wish you could smell this bridal bouquet, it's what dreams are made off 💕🤍

With a mix of scented white freesia and David Austin roses, it was incredible.

Do you think about scented flowers when it comes to your wedding ?

I believe its wonderful for a special day, as receiving & smelling those same flowers in years to comes can transport you back to that very moment in time 💕

B O U Q U E T // Remember the way you hold your bouquet is so important.
Hold it low (towards your belly button) with a relaxed arm & tilt it forwards. That way the camera captures you & the flowers perfectly 🤍
