FINDING YOUR STYLE 🙌🏻⁠ -⁠ I've been flow

FINDING YOUR STYLE 🙌🏻⁠
-⁠
I've been flowering for 3 years now and I think I'm starting to really settle into my style. Although style is immensely personal, it's not necessarily something you find immediately. ⁠
-⁠
The year long evening course I did in Floristry gave me a good understanding of floristry, using colours, techniques and practical lessons but from a style perspective, it really was a little dated. Also, the majority of the designs we made were in floral foam which I now know is absolutely dreadful for the environment. ⁠
-⁠
It's taken a long time to hone my craft and learn new techniques for creating my designs but I feel like I'm in a really good place. I'm much happier with my work and I love the modern feel to my designs, letting each flower do it's thing, rather than tying them in a perfect dome of symmetrical flowers. ⁠
-⁠
It will always change, develop and improve but I'm definitely getting well into my niche and loving every design I get to create!⁠

We've just done another amazing shoot at Goldsmiths and created something beautifully colourful and spectacular. It's a great blank canvas venue with a stunning rooftop conservatory for ceremonies ☀️⁠

SMALL WEDDINGS DON'T HAVE TO BE 'SMALL' 💁🏻‍♀️⁠
-⁠
Greenery clouds, massive arches and gorgeous table florals aren't reserved for parties with 100's of guests. If you've always had your heart set on a something big and bold, then go for it. What could be better than your first meal as a couple sitting under gorgeous greenery and fresh flowers with the scent filling the room. ⁠
-⁠
Farah & Mohammed chose to go big with their decoration at the reception, with a suspended cloud above delicate bud vases of seasonal blooms. ⁠
-⁠
This wedding is featured over on @lovemydress where Farah shares how she planned this wedding in just 3 weeks with the help of super-planner, @eventswithakilah. ⁠

Most of my 'I can't believe this is my job' moment

Most of my 'I can't believe this is my job' moments come when I'm sitting outside at a stunning wedding venue, the sun is on my face and I'm making something beautiful with flowers. Whether it's a buttonhole or an arch, I'm just sitting there soaking it all in and feeling immensely grateful. ⁠
-⁠
It's been many months since I went full time in my business and if I'm honest, it still doesn't really feel real. It feels like a long holiday (probably because I used to spend most of my 'holiday' days flowering weddings!) and that at any moment I'll be sitting back at a desk in a big glass office and it was all a dream. ⁠
-⁠
I had one of these moments here at Wotton House Hotel, sipping a tea and tying the ribbon around the bridal bouquet and feeling really pleased that I made the leap and just how far I've come 🥰⁠

DRIED AND FRESH 🌾⁠
-⁠
Adding a few dried flowers to your fresh bouquet is a great way to mix up the textures and add in some fluff, but also something really lovely to keep long after the ceremony, in a bud vase at home! ⁠
-⁠
Dried flowers last for years if they're kept well, just keep away from direct sun and heat, not somewhere you brush past regularly and definitely away from water, if you stick to those rules, they should last you quite a while. ⁠
-⁠
This bouquet its mainly fresh with a few sprigs of bleached ruscus and bunny tail grasses 🐰⁠
