We adore using succulents in our floral design. They’re extremely durable, very modern and come in so many wonderful sizes, shapes and colours. These designs, from a beautiful wedding at Broughton Hall, use succulents to create an overall look that’s wild, textured and just perfect for our bride, Biba.

Read MoreIt’s a beautiful frosty morning at our workshop in Harewood, Leeds so we couldn’t help but throw it back to this stunning autumn wedding at Wharefdale Grange last September. And actually we think these beautiful deep reds and burgundies would look just as stunning set against today’s icy backdrop! John and Natalie found us via the venue (we’re the recommended florists at Wharfedale Grange) and we couldn’t have thought of a better location for their elegant and contemporary wedding.
Read MoreRight away, we knew we were going to love creating Holli and Richard’s dream wedding day. The two of them were just so giddy when they came, with their equally warm families in tow, to their initial consultation! It was infectious! The couple wanted a really glamorous opulent wedding look. This can sometimes translate as traditional but as soon as we saw Holli’s stunning sparkle and tulle plunge gown from The Harrogate Wedding Lounge we knew that this wedding was going to be nothing but modern elegance.

Read MoreIt’s no secret that the US are ahead of the UK in terms of trends and products, so last month my wonderful friend, floral designer and former Introduction to Floristry student, Lizzie of In-a-gadda-da-Vida, and I were delighted to travel to Waterford, Virginia to attend Hope Flower Farm’s annual Flowerstock.
Read MoreWe love creating stunning wedding flowers for Wharfedale Grange weddings. Not least because our shed is based on the same grounds but because we know the venue like the back of our hands and can advise our couples on the perfect arrangements and where to place them around the buildings to really create their dream day.
Read MoreWe really loved worked on Matt and Katie’s wedding. It was bright, sparkly, elegant fun. The team and I are also obsessed with the trend for tropical foliage weddings at the moment (a trend that’s making it’s way over from the US) so creating the couple’s dream installation pieces to pop against the bright white of their Papakata sperry tent and match their specially commissioned neon sign was a dream come true!
