Seasonal flowers for the vows and everything after
Bridal bouquets, buttonholes, ceremony pieces and table flowers, shaped with you over a consultation and a mood board, then set up at your venue on the morning. We take two weddings a weekend at most.

From the first call to the last buttonhole
Most couples come to us nine to twelve months before the wedding. Five stages follow, each with a date you can plan around.
A first call
Thirty minutes by phone or video, at no charge. We talk through the date, the venue, the guest count and the feeling you want, and say plainly if the date is taken.
Studio consultation
An hour at the studio with real stems in season, ribbon samples and vases on the table. Couples who live far away can do it by video, stems held up to the camera.
Mood board and proposal
Within ten days we send a mood board of colours, shapes and flowers with an itemised proposal. Accepting it with a quarter of the total paid as deposit secures the date.
Final numbers
Six weeks before the wedding we confirm the bridal party, the tables and the ceremony pieces. The balance is due four weeks before.
Set up and clear down
We arrive at least three hours before the ceremony to place every piece and pin the buttonholes. Hired vases and arches are collected that night or the next morning.
Three collections to start the conversation
Each collection is a starting point that the mood board then shapes around you. Prices are illustrative, include set up within 80 km and move with the season and the stems you choose.
Ceremony and bridal party
from$1,150
- Bridal bouquet and up to four bridesmaid bouquets
- Eight buttonholes and two corsages
- Two large ceremony arrangements
- Ceremony pieces moved to the reception for you
The whole day
from$2,800
- Everything in the ceremony collection
- A ceremony arch or a meadow along the aisle
- Centrepieces for up to 12 tables
- Cake flowers and a welcome arrangement
Your date is secured by a deposit of a quarter of the total once you accept the proposal. If the wedding moves, the deposit moves with it to any date we have open in the following 18 months.
We design around the season, not against it
A peony in its own early summer costs far less than one flown in for October, and it holds its head better through a long day. We build every mood board from what is at its best in your month, so the flowers look generous without stretching the budget.
Markets change from week to week. If a stem fails to arrive or comes in tired, we replace it with one of the same colour, size and shape, and we tell you before the wedding whenever there is time.
- Mood boards built from stems in season for your date
- Local growers first, imported stems only when the design needs them
- Substitutes matched in colour and shape
- Foliage and dried stems to carry a palette through winter
What each season brings to the table
The stems we reach for most in each part of the year. Couples marrying in the southern hemisphere can read it the other way round, and we adjust for the climate wherever you marry.
| Season | At their best | Palettes that suit |
|---|---|---|
| Spring | Blossom branches, anemones, narcissus, fritillaries | Soft white, blush, pale green |
| Early summer | Peonies, sweet peas, garden roses, foxgloves | Blush, lilac, cream |
| Late summer | Dahlias, cosmos, scabious, phlox | Coral, burgundy, apricot |
| Autumn | Chrysanthemums, turning hydrangeas, rose hips, amaranthus | Rust, plum, copper |
| Winter | Anemones, paperwhites, winter berries, eucalyptus | Deep red, white, silver green |
What reaches the market depends on the weather in the weeks before, which is why the proposal names a substitute for any stem we cannot promise.
Palettes couples ask for
A palette is where the mood board begins. Ribbons, vases and candle glass are then chosen to sit with it.
Garden blushPeony pink, cream and sage
Wild meadowCornflower, white and soft green
Autumn emberRust, plum and burnt orange

Vases, stands and arches are lent with each piece and collected after the wedding. A missing or broken vase is charged at cost.
Weddings we have dressed
Walled gardens, timber barns, hotel rooms and town halls, in every season.
Couples on their flowers (example reviews)
The mood board looked exactly like the day. When the sweet peas failed at the market that week, they told us at once and the replacement was even softer.
They moved the arch from the lawn into the barn while we were having photos, so nobody saw the work happen. Every buttonhole was on before the cars arrived.
A winter wedding on a careful budget, and the berries, white anemones and eucalyptus made the hall feel generous. The video consultation was easy from abroad.
Before you book the flowers
How many months ahead do couples usually book?
Most couples book nine to twelve months ahead, and spring and early summer Saturdays go first. Shorter notice is fine when the date is open; we simply design with what the season has by then.
Can we see the flowers before the wedding?
At the studio consultation you see and smell real stems in season. With the whole day collection we also make one sample centrepiece about six weeks before, for you to approve.
Do you set up and clear away?
Yes. Set up is included within 80 km, and we arrive at least three hours before the ceremony. Lent vases, stands and arches are collected at the end of the night or the next morning, as the venue allows.
What if a flower is not available?
The proposal names a substitute for any stem that depends on the weather. If something fails at the market, we use a flower of the same colour and shape and let you know.
Will our venue allow candles, petals or an arch?
Venues set their own rules on open flames, petal confetti and fixing things to walls. We check with the venue before the proposal, and those rules vary between venues and between countries.
Can guests take the flowers home?
Centrepieces are yours to give away at the end of the night. Lent vases come back to us, so we leave the stems wrapped in paper for guests to carry.
Ask about your date
Send the day you are marrying, where, and a line or two on the flowers you picture. We reply within two working days to say whether the date is open and to arrange a first call.
- Nothing is held until the proposal and the deposit
- Payment is arranged directly with us
- We cap the diary at two weddings per weekend
