Amazing florist!

Working with the Flower Designer for my big day was a great decision. W do not know much about flowers and design etc, but Katherine was very knowledgeable and had many ideas once I gave her an idea about the colours I wanted. She was great at communicating, always checking in at appropriate times leading up the big day and keeping us updated. In addition to being very professional and easy to work with, Katherine is also lovely and I would definitely work with her again.

We would highly recommend Katherine!

Katherine did all of the flowers for our recent wedding and we couldn't have been happier with them! All the bouquets and flower arrangements she made for us were beautiful. She was also incredibly helpful in the planning process suggesting flowers to match our colour theme and providing mood boards of possible flowers and designs. We would highly recommend Katherine!

Beautiful flowers and great service

We contacted Katherine to do the flowers for their wedding in July, she was so helpful and accommodating, she suggested that we use the church flowers for the reception venue which was a brilliant idea, she organised dropping off and picking up, the flowers were stunning, it was a very warm week but the flowers lasted and still looked great the next day, would highly recommend using Katherine she really captured the theme for the wedding and the colours the bride had imagined.

100% recommend in a heart beat

First of all thank you Katherine!! The flowers are such an important part to a wedding and Im so glad I chose Katherine to be my florist. About a year out she invited me to a meeting where we went over the details of my wedding from venue, time of year, colour scheme - everything no detail was left out.

Best bouquet I have ever seen

Katherine was so helpful during the enquiry stage and 1 really enjoyed meeting with her to go through all the options. It was amazing seeing our ideas come to life through a Pinterest mood board. Katherine was great at making any changes to my order over the months. On the day, the most beautiful bouquets were delivered to the venue, on time. And they were stunning! 1 had lovely feedback from guests including "best bouquet I've ever seen".

Honestly couldn't recommend her enough!

So friendly and professional. The flowers she arranged for our wedding were absolutely amazing and we had so many compliments from our guests (both myself and my bridesmaid have kept our bouquets and dried them for other uses!). She went through design ideas and flower suggestions in our initial meeting, she really took the time to explain to us about seasons and the follow up. Honestly couldn't recommend her enough!

Perfect Wedding Flowers!

We hired Katherine to provide the flowers for our recent wedding and I just could not recommend her enough! From start to finish she was there to advise, not just on which flowers to pick but colours and styles too in mood boards which really helped us decide what to go for. The finished products were absolutely beautiful, my bouquet got plenty of compliments and it was all exactly what wanted. The quality of the flowers was also outstanding.

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

A family piece of jewellery from a loved one that is no longer with them can be attached to the handle of the bridal bouquet.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

When first making contact with a couple i would arrange a free consultation usually in the comfort of my design studio, or at a couple home. Sometimes a bride likes to bring along her Mother, other relatives and friends. All are welcome as i like a relaxed atmosphere where the bride feels at home. I request that a bride brings along any pictures and samples of ideas that she has seen and liked. I have a form that i will complete as we go along, discussing bouquets, bridesmaids, buttonholes, venue flowers, church flowers, containers, etc. I have a large selection of books and magazines to look through as well as samples of decorative accessories that can be added to the designs. I am there to guide a couple with season flower choices and will point out any issues i can foresee with any designs that they have chosen. I will then provide a couple with a itemised quotation along with hire charges if required and a colour board for each bridal arrangement. A 20% deposit secures the order and their day. The balance is due one month prior to the wedding date. I will keep in contact from the time of ordering through to the wedding date and happy to make alterations if required.

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

Feathers, Pampas grasses, dried elements, sparkle, ribbons!!

What should you do with the flowers after the wedding?

Table arrangements can be gifted to guests so they can continued to be enjoyed for that little bit longer.

Bridal flowers can be preserved in resin to keep as a memento of the day. Resin items such as paperweights, resin letters and pictures can be a lovely memory of the day.
