Archway inspo incoming 🫶

This week on the blog, we have collated some of our favourite archway weddings, giving you inspiration on how you could dress this beautiful space with a statement archway.

C&C opted for a true showstopper, dressed with fresh flowers on both sides of the arch structure rather than one side, meaning their confetti shot was just as breathtaking as their ceremony set-up 🤍

Considering an archway for your wedding but not sure where to start? Hit the link in our bio to see our full blog and archway inspo from our recent real weddings at the stunning venue.

Last year's workshop with and focused around using sustainable mechanics in our floral designs.

We created some seriously gorgeous set-ups during the workshop using mechanics we can use time and time again but without impacting on the finished design.

Dreamy end result? We think so 💫

This month we have started taking part in an incredibly simple but amazing initiative aimed at reducing the amount of green waste sent to landfil with .uk and

We are provided with com:post sacks which we will fill with our green flower waste. When the sacks are full, they are collected when we receive our next flower delivery from FleuraMetz.

Com:post then take this waste to their network of certified UK composters and turn the whole bag into reusable compost, then used by agricultural and horticultural growers to grow more food and flowers.

The initiative not only cuts down waste, it aims to promote composting as a sustainable alternative.

You can read more about the initial on our blog (link in bio)

Have you considered using crates instead of traditional pedestal plinths?

They offer the same versatility for relocating around your reception while adding a delightful rustic English country garden feel

Happy 20th Birthday Sonning Flowers!

The team go above and beyond, not only during peak wedding season but throughout the year, making stunning floral arrangements for all of life's occassions and I'm so proud of the whole team and what we've achieved over the years.

Finishing touches you never knew you needed but are so glad you included💫

Have you thought about whether you'd like your table plan, welcome sign, entrance tables or cake to have flowers?

Our finishing touches brochure provides lots of inspiration for these areas and as recommended suppliers at lots of local venues, we'd be pleased to recommend areas where additional flowers would add a little something extra 💜

This month is a big month for us...we celebrate 20 years in business!

We are celebrating our birthday on 12th April and we've got lots planned to celebrate! Surprise gifts for customers, a new birthday range of gift bouquets and celebrations with the whole team 🙌

20 years, 3 recessions, a global pandemic, sky high inflation and an ever changing market place. It's not been an easy ride for a small business but we made it! We love what we do and feel so incredibly proud to add three little letters and four numbers to our logo, "est. 2004"

We'll be sharing more on our socials throughout April of the Sonning Flowers story and the faces behind the name so stay tuned and a big THANK YOU for being part of our story 🥰

Client feedback means the world to small business like us and this one was no exception 🤍

"The flowers and candles were absolutely unreal and more beautiful that I could have hoped for. It was exactly what I envisaged in my head and your team did a seriously amazing job. Not only were the flowers incredible, but the service you have provided throughout has been amazing. You have been so accommodating and helpful from the start and made me feel so at ease during the planning phase"

Happy little dance from our team and utter joy seeing these photos. We are looking forward to lots more beautiful weddings this year, let's go wedding season 2024 🤛
