A little bit of summer wedding inspiration 🌺

A fun, fiesta-feel celebration at Waxham Great Barn Weddings in full sunshine 🌞

Thank you James Powell Photography for the pictures (1,2 & 4) & Smoke & Wildwood for the collab 🖤

Ivory, cream, pale yellow (you could even call it *magnolia*)… were all once written off as old fashioned & ugly colours but, all of a sudden, I think I may have found my new favourite 1980’s throwback 🤩

A dreamy white, fluffy installation under the magnificent facade of Pentney Abbey Wedding and Events Venue ~ also under an exceptionally rare blue sky, has anyone seen one of those lately 🤔

💘 Screaming Into Summer 💘 (just without the warmth, the weather, the correct footwear, the hazy evenings or the sunburn).

This bouquet was for a full on festival wedding which may just have been one of the coolest set ups I’ve ever seen.

Congratulations J + A 💘

Another charming ceremony set up using the ever-popular (and personal favourite) movable meadows alongside low ceramic bowls 〰️ when combined with pillars & props from Synched Events it’s a match made in floral heaven 🫦

If I gave bouquets names, this one would be ‘Stevie Nicks’ ☁️

A mix of clashing colours, textures & shapes made these bright bowls an absolute joy to create!

I’m just sitting watching flowers in the…. bath 🛁

…and what a beautiful bath this one is! It’s not unusual for me to put bouquets in the bath when delivering to wedding venues - it’s likely that when I arrive everyone will be showered and getting hair or make up done so the bath is clear. It keeps your flowers out of the way and protected, bathrooms are usually a bit cooler than the getting ready space and it’s much easier for drips and water to be taken care of.

A beautiful bath = a bonus picture of your blooms looking fabulous 🩶

I cannot tell you how pleased I am that spring has finally sprung - from here on in the flowers just keep getting better and better throughout the seasons, working outside becomes easier & weddings are in full swing ☀️🪿🌷🍹💒

In the usual madness of Mother’s Day yesterday I didn’t get a chance to post this pic 💙

Always grateful to my mum for her help & support during wedding season, this lovely photo was captured by Chloe Ellis Photography at my best friends wedding garden party, posing in front of the moveable meadows we had made 💙

MOTHER’S DAY 🏝️

Ok, so you may not be able to treat your mum to a tropical island getaway but you can treat her to a bunch of flowers instead.

Featuring seasonal favourites tulips & ranunculus, plus a little card for your message. Available in pink or turquoise & with free delivery within 10 miles of Norwich city centre.

Eagerly awaiting the wedding season to see the van full of flowers again in that early morning light 💜

In one month my 2024 weddings will kick off & this will be my view most days.

〰️Ribbons: they have the power to make or break a bouquet.

〰️My personal preference: long, trailing, floppy, matte & two colours.

〰️This photo: absolutely nailed it, thank you Emily Tyler Photography

One more turn, Del! 🪅 Yes, that’s right: the mini floral chandelier is set to be a hit in 2024 & 2025. Tying together the decor, showcasing modern styling & bringing a delicate touch of colourful flowers to photo backdrops without the expense of a full blown arch, it’s going to be popular.

Would you have one at your wedding?

Bride-with-Bouquet Portraits: here for them, have always loved them, please keep them coming! ⚜️

A beautiful throwback shot of Heather at Norwich Cathedral in September 2022, thank you Winston Sanders Photography for capturing this moment.

Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who has been in touch for their 2025 weddings 💜

It’s been great to chat to you all & hear about your floral plans. I’ve been busy with consultations over the last couple of weeks with more scheduled in for the rest of the month.

Now that quotes are being sent out the ‘peak’ dates and days will likely get booked up so please do drop me message if you’d like to organise a consultation… it’s not too late (yet 😉)….

♠️ BOLD ♠️

Let’s talk about colour schemes - yesterday I had my first consultation day for 2025 weddings & it was so nice to chat through all your plans for your big day. Thank you to everyone who booked a slot (the next one is Thursday 18th Jan & there are limited spaces left)!

From the discussions I had throughout the day it looks like 2025 is going to be a colourful one and I am HERE FOR IT. I absolutely love working with colour and bold choices; just like the bridal bouquet pictured with its clashing stark white and burgundy, mellow greens all finished with a black ribbon - which was for a mid-summer wedding.

Never be afraid to ask me for ‘out there’ styles or unusual ideas - it’s just what my creative side needs!

FLORISTRY SCHOOL : IT’S COMING 🧨 ….finally!

This idea originally got the go ahead almost 2 years ago, so to say I’m excited to be running it in 2024 is an understatement. This isn’t going to be a fusty, dusty, old fashioned course; it’s going to be fresh, modern & accessible to all. If you’re thinking of changing your career - this could be it!

🔺Course starts September 2024

🔺More details coming in the next few days…

02/01/2024

Welcome to 2024! 🌅

With weddings galore, a few workshops, lots of consultations & a big new project on the horizon I’m looking forward to diving headfirst into the new year.

LET’S GO!

Thank you Laura Beresford Photography for the pic
