As with anything creative, each florist will have their own style and the best way to know if they’re right for you is to start with their website. The pictures and the writing should speak to you. You might not be able to find exactly what it is that you want, you might not know what you want but you should feel connected and a warmth with it.

The next step is to have a nose at their social media pages. In this modern world, I have alot more pictures on instagram and pinterest than I do on my website. On my instagram page you’ll find lots of pictures of weddings that I have done and if you look on the story highlights (the circles at the top of the grid) then you’ll get to know me a little more and your venue if it’s one that I regularly decorate. My own Pinterest account is a little different to instagram in that it isn’t only my work but also a feel for what inspires me. The easiest way to find my board is to click on the link at the bottom of my website. At the top of the page you’ll see four boards that are created by me with photos of my own work for you to look through. Underneath you’ll find inspiration boards which will again give you a feel about what I love.

If you like what you see then get in touch with that florist. Send them an email to ask if they are available on your day. It also really helps in this initial message to confirm your venue and if you know it, your budget. If you have any details about the arrangements that you know you’d like, tell them. If you’ve seen any pictures you like, send them.
