OVERBLOWN
Forget being subtle – bigger
Add oversized blooms to
bouquets for a feminine but
bold look – orists Rebel
roses like Norma Jean and
English dahlias.
THE FLOWER APPRECIATION
SOCIETY: Ellie and Anna’s style
from their Hackney studio is
quirky, but with that freshly
picked look. They recently did
the flowers for Jemima Khan’s
40th birthday party; theflower
appreciationsociety.co.uk
JACK FLEURISTE: Linzi Deprez
named her Edinburgh-based
firm in memory of her grandad
and his beloved greenhouse.
She likes to use what she calls
‘challenging’ flowers like tulips
and narcissi; jackfleuriste.com
MRS UMBELS: Sarah and Lucy
don’t have a shop but a shed
housed in a field in Newark,
Nottinghamshire. Their rustic
arrangements use as many of
their own grown flowers as
possible; mrs-umbels.co.uk
THE NEW FACES
OF FLORAL
THAT FLOWER SHOP: With
a shop in front of the Ace Hotel
in Shoreditch, Hattie Fox
provides flowers for the fashion
industry, as well as cool
weddings in East London;

THE THOUGHTFUL FLOWER
COMPANY: Founder Juliet
Glaves aspires to keep things as
natural as she possibly can –
everything is organic (there’s
not a chemical in sight);
thoughtfulflowers.co.uk
OFF-CENTRE
Perfectly poised arrangements are
giving way to laid-back displays.
Asymmetric styles are a fresh
alternative to tightly packed posies
but more glamorous than the past
trend for meadow-style blooms.
GLAMELIA
Made by intricately wiring
lots of petals from a single
ower type together to create
a new, much fuller shape, the
glamelia is the ultimate
couture bouquet.

SUSPENDED
Whether hung from the ceiling
or oating in water, artists like
Rebecca Louise Law and wedding
planner Preston Bailey are
creating stunning installation-
style wedding displays.
Hold that
bouquet!
