Your’ll have seen from our facebook page that I’ve been at Chapel Designers London 2015! I genuinely had no idea what to expect, but have had three of the most humbling, intense and unique days. It’s an event that is designed to inspire, encourage and support florists to keep developing themselves and it certainly did…
I meant to share this wedding over Valentines as it was so fabulously romantic but time has flown and Easter is just round the corner. I thought it was only right and proper that I share this beautifully romantic wedding we helped create at Orchardleigh late last year. Lindsay contacted me early in 2014 to…
Following on from being featured for our peony wedding flowers on the award winning wedding blog ‘Love My Dress’ I thought I would pick out my top three favourite peonies. Peony season doesn’t really start till the beginning of May and it has to be one of my favourite times of year! My husband can…
This is a spur of the moment blog about peonies, and a delightful way to forget the miserable weather outside, I’ve lit the fire and am very tempted to pour myself a G&T as I begin to tell you all about today! I got home from having coffee with a friend {sneaky day off} and…
Feeling Spring like yet? Well I’ve just loaded up the log-fire and made a cuppa, the hound is sleeping beside me and I’m very tempted to wrap myself up in a quilt while I work but I’m resisting the temptation and remaining positive.

Still can’t quite get my head round the new year, though it is only the 3rd January so I’m not feeling too bad. Are you excited for 2015? Have you got great adventures planned? We are planning our first wedding fair to be hosted in the grounds of Hartley farm, but before that we are heading…
I believe the song carries on with ‘my true love sent to me, two turtle doves….’ I’m not entirely sure how they would arrive but I think I may change it slightly to ‘A fabulous Christmas Door wreath’, is that allowed? How your Christmas preparations are coming along? So far I’ve managed a Christmas tree…
December is here and you know what that means! Everyone’s catching Christmas fever. I’m not quite there yet… I have a few symptoms; a slight case of Christmas cheer, the odd outburst of seasonal songs and an increasing urge to cover everything in tinsel! But for me Christmas doesn’t hit until a couple of weeks…
Do you ever look at wedding photos from years ago and cringe? You know which ones I mean, in the 70’s and 80’s? With the big frilly peach bridesmaid dresses and equally large perms to go with them? Our parents tell us they were the height of fashion at the time and we can’t possibly…
