Inspiration comes in all sorts of forms and for me, my grandmother was the person who not only taught me about the rewards of working hard but she inspired my artistic side. Wildly creative, my grandmother loved to paint, make clothes and play the piano. The joy she got from being creative motivated me to pursue my passion in floral design. The endless satisfaction that working with flowers gives me is something that is hard to convey - I love that as ‘living art’ it is forever changing and never truly replicated.
When it comes to weddings, I never take for granted what a privilege it is to work closely with a couple and be entrusted to create the flowers for their dream day. It is beyond satisfying to take a couple’s vision and push it further than they might imagine possible. I always aim to exceed expectations and want the couple to feel that the floral installations were a fundamental ingredient in making their special day memorable.
I have had the pleasure of working at some of the most prestigious venues in London and throughout the UK, and what I cherish the most is taking the same space that I’ve worked in hundreds of times before and turning it into something totally unique and magical for that one pivotal day. To create luxury floral designs, handpick each bloom myself and then see to every last touch on the day makes me incredibly fulfilled.
