Tied Florist, Swanage

Personal flowers for you and your wedding party (you, your partner, and your groomsmen, bridesmaids, etc.) typically start at a few hundred pounds, while larger weddings featuring bespoke floral designs or installations can go into the thousands. Factors such as the scale and abundance of your arrangements, seasonality, location, and design complexity (including the labour involved) will also affect the cost. Every wedding is unique, so we recommend starting with a consultation to discuss your ideas. From there, we can provide a tailored quote that aligns with your vision and makes the most of your budget. If you’re just beginning your planning, take this as your cue to reach out for a chat and start the ball rolling! ✨ Planning your wedding?

It’s been a busy time here in Dorset, and I’m more than a bit excited to share some news…

A little over a month ago, I took over the keys of a little corner shop in Swanage. My first flower studio, due to open next year, and I’m so excited to share a first look with you today! This has been a dream of mine for a really long time: a dedicated space to work from, a place for people to discover beautiful flowers and locally-sourced gifts, and a workshop for weddings and events (hidden beneath the shop—more on that later!). Hopefully, one day, it will also be a place for floral classes and workshops, too. This lovely shop dates back hundreds of years, she’s beautiful but a little weathered and is going to need a LOT of TLC, so watch this space as I get to work and spend the next few months transforming the place with the help of my lucky, lucky husband and family 😄 If you’re in Swanage our planning a visit be sure to stop by and say hi. I can’t wait to share more with you soon! X #newbeginnings #selinakerleyflowers #floristswanage #dorsetflorist

One from the archives - how to gently reflex roses, for a blousier look and feel. This works best on roses that have relaxed for a few days already, when the petals are naturally starting to loosen up. If you’re short on time, try taking them out if water for half an hour beforehand to soften them up (also works well for roses destined for confetti petals). Try it and let me know how you get on! #floraltipsandtricks #relfexingroses #relfexedroses #howtofloristry #floristryhowto #learnfloristry #swanageflorist #dorsetflorist #dorsetweddingsupplier #dorsetweddingflorist #goldenmustardroses

Soaking up the last weeks of summer, the unexpected warmth has been a real treat! There’s nothing quite like being out and about in the Dorset when the sun’s shining.

The last few months have been busy, busy, here’s a little ode to the moments in between 🤍 #dorsetflorist #swanageflorist #dorsetweddingsuppliers #thelittlethings

I was prepping rose petal confetti for a wedding this morning and remembered that I had this video stashed away to share. One of those little floristry tips that is such a game changer once you know it. Many people instinctively pluck the petals straight off the flower’s head to remove them, but rose petals are delicate and prone to bruising. As a result, you’ll likely end up with a pile of torn and somewhat sorrowful-looking confetti. Instead, try turning the stem upside down and gently pinching the entire head off at its base. This way, each petal remains intact and unbruised. This is especially useful for white roses, as they tend to bruise even with minimal handling. Here’s a top tip: order your roses a few days in advance of your wedding or event, allowing them to fully open. Then, about half an hour before you need them, take them out of water so they can soften up. This will make it much easier to remove the petals. Did you find this helpful? Let me know in the comments below! 🌹 #floraltipsandtricks #rosepetalconfetti #learnfloristry

No idea of the road name but I can tell you it’s where my favourite smoke bush lives.
