We’ve all had a very tough 2020, but we are embracing 2021 and utilising every day that is full of sunshine and warmth, and nothing says sunshine and warmth like a bouquet of daffodils.
Even better it's Easter this weekend, and with the wonderful news that we can spend time with family in small outside groups what better reason to celebrate. Why not fill your home with a bouquet of sunshine (we hear there is a heatwave coming!) and enjoy some of those gorgeous colours?

It’s traditionally the beginning of wedding season, what are some of your favourite flowers that you would be choosing for a wedding at the moment?
We know a lot of brides love peonies, but they are only in season for such a short amount of time that we can suggest one of many alternatives. Lots of garden roses have a similar shape and size so we can use these, also dahlias look gorgeous in wedding arrangements. In the winter hellebores are gorgeous, and again roses.
Wedding flowers are very personal, often we have brides who have a specific flower that they want included, this may be because they have a flower that reminds them of someone special or a special moment in their relationship. This is something we love hearing and will always try to make it possible for this to happen.
A lot of people on their wedding day go for quite a natural makeup look, Code 8 have some gorgeous shades of products, if you were going for a natural, nude make up look what flowers would you pair with that for a bridal bouquet for summer and then for autumn/winter?
Cafe au lait dahlias are gorgeous and are the perfect nude shade, Quicksand roses are also a stunning option. They also look gorgeous in a hair arrangement if you’re looking to have flowers in your hair!
If you’re going to for a bold red, romantic look, black baccara roses are one of the most striking red roses. They are almost velvet to the touch and look stunning against the white of a wedding dress.
