Absolutely above and beyond any expectation we had

I cannot begin to say how much Katie simply made our Wedding day for us. From the flowers which were just absolutely above and beyond any expectation we had, to the calmness and kindness of her and her team throughout the whole process. Will be recommending darling buds of KJ to absolutely everyone and we just couldn’t be happier or more grateful that we chose her! Thank you so much for everything Katie!!

I would definitely recommend!

Katie did my wedding flowers and she was brilliant. Very knowledgable about the flowers and good communication. Katie was great at working with me to come up with options for the day and how to make the most of my budget, and was very accommodating with some last minute requests. Katie worked with the venue on the day to set up / move things around etc so I didn’t have to worry at all, was all very smooth and stress free for me. I would definitely recommend! Thank you Katie 😊

Totally exceeded our expectations

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Katie for our wedding, and she was beyond amazing! The floral arrangements were stunning and totally exceeded our expectations. Katie is super passionate about her work, always quick to respond to our questions and making sure every detail was perfect with pictures. She helped bring so many of our ideas to life and repurpose flowers in a clever way. We highly recommend her services for any special occasion!!

Beautifully Enchanting

We were absolutely blown away by Katie's artistic floral arrangements: statement moon arch, marquee ladder and chandelier installations, beautiful aisle meadows, bud vases and much more. Throughout the consultations, Katie was so knowledgable. We wanted seasonal flowers and we were amazed at all these beatiful home grown varieties! Katie's passion for flowers has definitely rubbed on us! Thank you Katie for bringing our ideas to life (and adding your wonderful flair to it) and being so adaptable

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish

We used Katie for our wedding back in February. She was absolutely brilliant from start to finish and nothing was too much trouble. My bouquet was perfect and everyone commented on how lovely the flowers were. Thank you so much Katie for being such a big part of our day and helping to make it perfectly perfect 💙

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

Every wedding is beautiful, and truly one-of-a-kind, making it impossible to single out the most memorable! One unforgettable moment stands out – the day the van got stuck in a field by the marquee! It brings a smile to my face now and serves as a reminder that as florists, we're continuously learning and adapting to unforeseen challenges!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Romantic, timeless, whimsical, elegant, unforgettable

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

When planning your wedding day, focus on what you genuinely want, not what you think others would prefer. Above all, savour and enjoy every moment of the process!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

I love when friends write a personalised poem as their reading during the ceremony!

Describe your typical process with a couple.

We start with an initial consultation to go through all the details, before I send your proposal to you. If you're happy, a deposit is required to secure my services on your date. 8 weeks before your big day we have a final consultation to finalise the details and I send the final balance. Then the wedding day comes around before you know it!!

What is the most interesting thing you have put in a bouquet?

Fir cones! Adding a gorgeous touch of texture for a winter wedding.

Is there a flower that has specific symbolism that you would recommend for couples?

I suggest roses for weddings due to their timeless symbolism of love, beauty, and romance. The variety of colours allow couples to personalise their choice, adding emotional significance to such a special celebration.

What is the most romantic flower and why?

To me, Delphiniums are one of the most romantic flowers! Their tall and graceful stems, full of stunning flowers, and range of colours, including shades of blue, purple, and pink, add to their romantic allure.

What should you do with the flowers after the wedding?

After your wedding, rather than letting your flowers go to waste, consider repurposing them by gifting them to guests. Personally, I highly recommend preserving your bridal bouquet – it's a lasting memento, whether dried and framed or encased in resin, allowing you to cherish a piece of your wedding flowers forever.
