HOW do you choose the 'Perfect' BRIDAL BOUQUET?

Dress: It may sound strange to consider your Wedding dress first, but you want to make sure that your Bridal flowers compliment your dress rather than stealing the show. You should consider the style of your dress too; is it a vintage 1950’s dress with a sweetheart neckline and mid-calf length flare skirt? Is it a figure-hugging, strapless modern dress with a lot of detailing? Florists will often ask you what your dress is like so that they can advise you on what will suit you best, why not take a photo along with you to the consultation. 2. Shape & Size: The most commo ...Read More

HOW can I be 'involved' with the FLOWERS for my Norfolk Wedding?

HOW can I be ‘involved’ in the FLOWER ARRANGEMENTS for my wedding? Some of us are more ‘in touch’ with our creative side than others.  For some people one of the most exciting parts of the wedding planning is the anticipation of ‘getting involved’! If that’s what ‘makes your wedding special to you’ then ‘go for it’ . . . - but KNOW and SET your BOUNDARIES.   “Ask yourself . . . what are my priorities?” . . . and then list them, they may go something like this -; To have ...Read More

WHAT do I do when the flowers ARRIVE for my 'NORFOLK Wedding'

So the day has arrived and you are so excited!  You have been advised to allow TWICE as much time for ‘everything’ and you are very glad you did, the ‘feeling of anticipation’ is amazing, you want to ‘cherish every moment’ and be your loveliest  ‘with-in and without’ for the WHOLE DAY not just the wedding itself.  You are really going to SOAK IT ALL IN  and enjoy the ‘bubble’ around you, the hub-bub of those dear to you as they all ‘do their bit’ to make sure you have -;   &n ...Read More

The 'Pitfalls' of a VALENTINE Wedding!

VALENTINES DAY is a very special day on the calender in particular for ‘new relationships’.  Valentines Day is a day when young love throws caution to the wind in favour of daring and anticipation, a day when you are quite justified in declaring your feelings for that special someone, in fact – it would be RUDE not to! A card is chosen. Now to the flowers . . . but you don’t know what she likes!  You make a promise to yourself to do the research for next year, meanwhile you will have to go with your GUT INSTINCT, and anyway, this year it& ...Read More

WHY I no longer participate in BRIDAL FAIRS

I have always ‘loved a good show’ and when Bridal Fairs started becoming popular that was all the excuse I needed to put on . . .  A Show of my Own . . . ‘no point in doing this at all if you are not going to CREATE AN IMPACT and get yourself noticed’ I reasoned!   The Organisers There is nothing more DISAPPOINTING than turning up for a show that you have put your Heart and Soul into and experiencing                       ...Read More

HOW I became a 'Specialist Wedding Florist'

With everything that goes with running a busy ‘Interflora’ shop, it soon became clear that I wasn’t going to be able to bring up a young family – ‘at the same time’!  But when the children started school . . . well THAT  was another story 😉     As much as I adored being a mother I was missing floristry terribly and needed to bring some sort of a ‘balance’ back into my life. THE PLAN So the plan was that I would look after the children during the week and be a ‘Specialist Wedding Florist’ at the w ...Read More

Getting the TABLE CENTRES right!

Choosing the right table centre will make all the difference to your event.   Intimate Venue For a smaller low ceilinged room there is nothing better than a bundle of perfumed, largeheaded roses with a few sprigs of foliage in a small vintage rose bowl . . . or a dumply little jug - to give a cosy cottage feel that will really contribute to the intimacy of a smaller gathering.  Depending on the time of the year, if you'd like to keep things seasonal you could perhaps swap out the roses for a colourful variety of short stemmed spring flowers. At some venues you will have l ...Read More
