Posted • .mary_estate You shouldn’t have favourites but a wonderful florist to work with is Suzanne What a stunning combination of dress, hair, and flowers! Yazz flawlessly matched the subtle lace details of her dress with the tone of her hair and the burgundy /mauve colour palette of her florals. It truly shows that planning every little detail makes a difference.

Delivering the bouquets to the bride and bridesmaids is the highlight of my working day. It’s at that very moment when you see the smile on the bride’s face and know you’ve nailed it!
All the accessories are ready for the big day! Flowers play a crucial role in the fabric of your wedding, appearing in many shots your photographer will capture. Choosing and executing a cohesive colour scheme throughout the different aspects of your celebration is an essential part of the planning process. While it can seem daunting, I’m here to help you make the right choices. Contact me to book a complimentary consultation!
Slowly but surely incredible photos are trickling in from the first half of the 2024 wedding season. As a supplier I am eternally grateful to the photographers who generously share the pictures with us, who would otherwise rely on substandard pre-event mobile phone shots. This particular wedding was shot by the amazing at one of our favourite venues: .mary_estate
Thank you :)
Welcome to another week full of wedding preparations! Looking forward to subtle pinks, pale mauve, light yellow, soft blues, hues of lilac, whites and cream and 100 shades of green. Interested? Watch this space :)
Including family members and close friends in your wedding is essential for making them feel special and creating a truly memorable and meaningful celebration. A boutonniere signifies a place in the ‘inner circle’ for male participants, while wrist corsages, flower crowns, or lapel posies beautifully honor female family members and friends, ensuring everyone feels cherished and included on your big day.
With one wedding behind us, the next one is in the making. I am looking forward to a long-planned, much-anticipated marquee celebration that will, no doubt, create beautiful memories. To new beginnings!

Absolutely thrilled with this feedback! It’s always rewarding to see our floral designs receive so many compliments. Grateful for the opportunity to help make such special moments even more beautiful.
While I always want the flowers to be a highlight of the photo, isn't it fabulous how they enhance the overall aesthetics without stealing the show? They beautifully complement the most important aspect of the shot: the bride!

Blue, lemony yellow, and green were the dominant colours of Sunday’s beautiful wedding at the perfect setting of .estate.wiltshire.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with the couple, who meticulously planned every detail to create a beautifully curated, unforgettable wedding experience. Planning makes perfect!
The moment I hand over the bouquet to the bride is always filled with quiet excitement. It’s the instant where I get to see her genuine reaction to the flowers, a beautiful mix of joy and surprise.

You know, boutonnières aren’t just elegant little floral touches for the wedding party - they can actually carry some surprising political weight. Think about it: these small blooms signal who’s in the inner circle of the wedding, a pretty important designation. It’s kind of like a secret code, saying, “Hey, you’re part of the special crew.”
But here’s a tip: it’s often better to err on the side of inclusivity. Imagine the tension if someone feels left out because they didn’t get one of these symbolic flowers. A few extra boutonnières can go a long way in ensuring everyone feels included and valued. After all, a wedding should be a joyous occasion for everyone, not a source of awkwardness or hurt feelings.
Floral meadows bring a touch of nature’s magic, whether lining the aisle, adorning a grand mantelpiece or a medieval windowsill at the church. Interested in exploring floral options for your wedding? Let’s chat in a personal consultation.
We are renowned for crafting wild, garden-inspired bouquets. This weekend’s wedding showcased the perfect blend of elegance with symmetrical bouquets and the whimsical charm of wild bud vases. Truly the best of both worlds!
Choosing Milston Flower Barn isn’t just a ‘drop-and-go’ - I’m with you every step of the way, making sure every last detail is perfect.

During my initial 1:1 consultations, I sometimes hear from brides that flowers aren’t a top priority. It’s important to remember, though, that flowers will be almost every photo, at least until everybody hits the dance floor!
If you like our style, I encourage you to get in touch for a consultation. It’s the best way to navigate any uncertainties you might have about your wedding flowers and to start bringing your vision to life.

What a wonderful bunch! I must admit, sunflowers are really hard to work with. They seem to have a mind of their own when it comes to arranging them. But never mind, they’re just for my own kitchen table! #milstonflowerbarn #homegrown #summerweddingflowers

Enjoy this fabulous film by @graystone.film taken last week at the beautiful @syrencot . The flowers are quite nice as well ;) #milstonflowerbarnflorist #wiltshireflorist #hampshireflorist #bespokeweddingflowers
Using locally grown, in-season exclusive tulips for a bespoke wedding bouquet embodies a unique blend of elegance, sustainability, and personal touch. These tulips, flourishing in their natural growing season, exhibit vibrant colours and optimal freshness, ensuring the bouquet is visually stunning and lasts beautifully throughout the wedding day. Opting for local blooms supports community growers and reduces the environmental impact associated with long-distance flower transportation. Moreover, the exclusivity of in-season tulips adds a distinctive character to the bouquet, making it not just a floral arrangement but a memorable, personalised element of the special day. Each tulip, with its graceful form and delicate petals, contributes to a bouquet that is as unique and splendid as the love it celebrates.
So kind of @livmoorephotography to share her beautiful pictures. Thank you for taking part in our class, Liv! #learning #wreathmaking #milstonflowerbarn
