Vintage Mauves - Newton House

As its starting to feel a little like summer has finished , its nice for us to use a selection of textured flowers that give that early autumnal feel without the orange shades & berries that we would associate with true autumn . Here we have used wheat , wax flower and astrantia , alongside vintage roses and lavender to represent the seasonal time of year .

Wildflower Style

Not stating the obvious but we love flowers .  Floral trends come and go but we have always stuck to our love of natural cottage garden flowers , and always trying really hard to give you the flowers that are naturally in season at the time that you need them . Why force natures hand ?
As well as lovely feminine soft colours and styling ( which you'll see lots of if you like our Facebook page, twitter and Instagram) , we also love to present our flowers in a very informal and natural way . Obviously for wedding flowers, we are guided by our brides requests, but if you love that wildflower, meadow look then these pictures are for you !  We are now taking bookings for 2016 weddings and if you feel our work fits your own vision then do please contact us soon . Dates are filling up very quickly

Roses - Ockbrook Church and Swancar Farm

This mornings wedding setup was unfortunately quite a wet one - pesky British summertime ! 
But hopefully the pretty flowers, which were made from predominantly pastel roses will make up for the weather . A few pics from Ockbrook church and the lovely Swancar Farm ….

Wedding Flowers - Osmaston, Derbyshire


A few weeks ago, we had the pleasure of providing these lovely wedding flowers - probably one of our prettiest weddings to date . The overall theme was pretty, soft and feminine - using alot of white flowers with pale pink and nude shades to complement - lots of my favourite roses were used - quicksand, o'hara, David Austin keira - with lovely additions like lily of the valley in the bridal bouquet and big blousey white hydrangeas throughout the church and reception flowers . 
Our lovely bride Kelly , provided us with gorgeous props to use - cream milk churns, painted crates - our shop was a floral heaven before delivery ! Everything looked so pretty at the venues in the Derbyshire countryside - Osmaston village church, and Osmaston Park . For the tables, we filled lovely jugs, crates and little jars to complete the prettiness . 
It all looked lovely and Im really glad that it was a lovely sunny day to celebrate too !

Whimsical Woodland Wedding Bouquets

I must admit when it comes to wedding flowers, I really do love foliage . I'm a big nature lover so to include lots of lovely greenery is always a joy . I know its not for everyone, and it doesn't suit every style and theme, but when this lovely bride Jodie, asked for whimsical woodland style wedding flowers, I did do a little silent excited squeal . 
A lovely natural trailing bouquet , a delicate maid marion-esque flower crown and foliage bouquets with just the occasional flower for the bridesmaids - I was in pure heaven , reminds me of A Midsummers Nights Dream ! x
