we have updated the testimonial page. we keep all the cards and letters we receive as it really means a great deal to all the team to get such lovely feedback

we are in full swing now and have been since February, so we will keep updating the latest gallery photo site. we have moved the link further up the homepage as a lot of you were saying you couldn’t find it (great martini vase shots just added with a unique vintage/antique theme petal mix)

we’ll be adding a new feature to the directory- a wedding checklist

the pictures have been taken for the hire service so that’s coming on

two petal colours are being offered at a one-off special lower price ( not for long though so get pre-ordering if you like peach or yellow rose petals as part of your event theme!)

wishing everyone a happy May bank holiday weekend

Aries

21 March — 20 April

Red roses suit your passionate nature, but to appease your more adventurous side you will be looking for something a bit more daring. Black baccara roses are perfection for the Aries bride. To go with your modern dress style, a hand tied boutique, while your ruler, fiery Mars will love sparkling details such as crystals.

Red

Roses, tulips and amarylis

Fantastic new colour to be added to the petal shop shortly. This lilac shade is stunning we anticipate high demand. Looks great with dusky pink, candy pink and dolce vita,  a real vintage look which is very now!

Don’t forget you can pay by PROTX now as well as Paypal so you have a choice

some great new suppliers have joined the directory with links direct to their sites it is definitely worth having a look. we are also just about to add some new top tips and ideas for special event planning too

we haven’t taken any bookings this weekend as I am running in the London marathon (anyone watching I’m number 6398) but we did manage to slot in a photo shoot for stunning Stanmer House so as soon as we get some pictures we will add them to the site. I did consider running as a big fancy dressed pollen petal but not for long- running the 26 miles is tough enough!

good luck to anyone else taking part too

you know we like to make sure that as well as offering the best petals and service we are very competetive on price

I see another company is selling a large 24 litre box ‘ the cheapest you will find’ at £219.95 including postage

if you pre-order 12 of our 2 litre boxes at £17.50 each plus £1 total shipping (standard shipping discount on every order 3 boxes and over)

you pay a total  £211 !!!!!!!!!  (enough left over for a nice bottle of sauvignon blanc)

and you get the petals well packed so they don’t get damaged in transit not just in one large box, in our experience one large box = the potential for more broken bits at the bottom………

……..not such a bargain!

will be adding some great pictures later from this weekends wedding’s
