What is your most memorable wedding?
I love working on all weddings! It's hugely working with different brides, to different styles, with beautiful seasonal material, all grown here.
Describe your style in 5 adjectives.
Organic, natural, abundant, joyful, romantic
What about your business are you most proud of?
The fact that we grow all the flowers here!
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Enjoy it!
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
I love having brides to visit the farm and seeing them choose their own flowers. They always come up with such original and creative schemes - even those who say they know nothing about flowers.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
I try to keep things simple. Please drop me a line and I will send you our very detailed brochure. We can then work it out from there either over the phone or by email.
What is the most interesting thing you have put in a bouquet?
Pheasant feathers! We've also made an arrangement out of an old tuba.
Is there a flower that has specific symbolism that you would recommend for couples?
I would go for the flower you love.
What is the most romantic flower and why?
The English Rose. Nothing carries the scent or the romantic symbolism quite like it.
What should you do with the flowers after the wedding?
Enjoy them! If you re-trim the stems of bouquets and make sure everything is kept in fresh water they should last for a few more days at the very least.
