Natural, romantic, luxury, blousy, bespoke
The fabulous feed back we get from our amazing couples. The feeling you get when you have delivered flowers seeing them set up and seeing the bride overwhelmed by her vision coming together.
Make your wedding your day! Do exactly what makes you happy do not try to please everyone else. Book your desired suppliers early.
We like to include a list of the bridal bouquet flowers used in a scroll for the bride to keep.
We meet with the happy couple to discuss ideas and budgets. We then send out a tailor made quotation. Once booked we like to meet with the couple at least once again, around six weeks before to go over final requirements.
Succulents, Air Plants
Depends, I like to use any flowers that are personal to a couple this to me is what makes each couples flowers personal to them, a favourite of theirs, flowers representing a lost loved one, for example Nana's favourite flowers were lily of the valley. An Australian bride I would maybe use Eucalyptus or Wax Flower, incorporating an Australian native flower or foliage.
I love Roses, or Peonies, highly scented, blousy and so romantic.
If the couple are able to give to guests this is a lovely touch, alternatively if the couple are straight on honeymoon, giving to a local hospice is something we have done, so they get some enjoyment from them. It's always lovely if the bride can have her bouquet dried or preserved.
