It really is always about the details, the thoughtfulness of the design, the palette, the considerations of the stem, how would this or that want to grow and how should I place it to ensure the overall feel is natural and organic.

Just some of the musings going through my mind as I installed my piece ‘Nature as Laboratory’ at the one and only Chelsea Flower Show. I’ve had so many people ask me about how it felt to be there, was I nervous? Well, I wanted to do a really beautiful job so that was there but I wouldn’t say nervous. Honestly, I felt incredibly grounded, after months of prep here I was in my zone, with all these incredible seasonal flowers✨

The scent of the geranium ‘Attar of roses’ grown by the wonderful will be a reminder of this week for me always. That alongside apple mint, sweet peas and lilac it really was a treat both for me and the bees (swipe to see my perpetual companions enjoying the flowers over the week) as working with seasonal, locally grown flowers always is.

Thank you to the incredibly talented .co.uk for taking these gorgeous detail shots. Aren’t they amazing?! Georgie captured the feel of the piece so beautifully, it is ALWAYS about creating the right feel with flowers, be that a wedding, a shop window, brand installation or…the Chelsea flower show ✨

To come away with a GOLD medal, it being my first time ever at a show is something I’ve not quite got my head around. I gave everything my care and attention just like I always do and I genuinely loved what I created.

Perhaps I’ll have to do this all again sometime?! V x

D I D I T ✨ This design that has been taking up space in my head and in my heart since December has come into being and I am so proud. I sit here ahead of judging results day knowing I love what I have created, the feel was right (and you know it’s always about creating the right feel for me with the flowers!)
This was the moment I decided it was finished last night, my husband Andrew capturing it on camera. Such a long day of hard but joyful work as I really got in the detail.

Today has been press day, an absolute beauty of a day, the piece appeared on One whilst being painted by my gorgeous friend Alex and I’ve had the best conversations with so many people. I could chat to you about seasonality all day!! Here’s to having an idea and making it happen, thank you for giving me the space to create this 😘🙌✨ V x

P.s thank you everyone for your gorgeous messages, really means the world!

Really excited to announce this collaboration with the fabulous ahead of Press day at Chelsea Flower Show on Monday! My completed floral installation will be illustrated live by the amazing using their incredible plant-based paints.

The floral design I’ll be creating for Chelsea celebrates origins of materials with all elements thoughtfully chosen to represent the importance of natural origins, material evolution and botanical discovery.

Using exclusively British-grown stems, the piece will be a beautiful reflection of the season and showcase the importance of working in an earth conscious way, something .ed has long been a voice for.

I’ll also be creating florals for their London showroom as part of , co-in siding with the flower show, Alex’s finished artwork and a week of exciting in-house events and launches.

So excited to bring this Chelsea design into being! V x

It’s about time this little square appeared here! 🙌✨

I’m so thrilled to have been selected for Chelsea Flower Show, the journey has been mega so far, pulling multiple elements for this together whilst still creating your beautiful floral wedding set ups has seen some serious plate spinning!

I’m really excited to take seasonal stems to Chelsea, such incredible British-grown flowers nutured by the best people with so much care and consideration. The character of these stems and their placement within the design will be an important part of the narrative, setting the scene and telling the story in the way that locally grown flowers do so beautifully.

Wild clay, oxidised metal and willow (which I’m proud to say I have learnt to weave myself) will come together to ground and anchor the piece to the considerations of origins and time.

A lot of thought went into how I could create a piece that reflected my ethos, my values and my passion for the way I work and I really feel like every step I’ve taken so far has nailed that.

I do want to say a big thank you for all the cheerleading that’s been going on in my messages, WhatsApp’s, emails and in person. A lovely reminder that when you authentically show up for other people, they show up for you. I’m so glad you’re all here!! ✨🙌

A massive thank you to the talented people and teams who’ve been incredibly supportive in me bringing this together so far .co and all the welders and fabricators that are quite frankly too busy and old school to be on Instagram!

I’ll be revealing more about the design really soon but for now it lies in my hands to bring this all together in a couple of weeks time!…Let’s do this! V xx

More seasonal, British grown magic ✨

February goodness, vibrant pastels, amazing scent. Doesn’t matter what the weather is doing (I mean a bit more sun would be great right?!) These beauties are all starting to come through and it is a joy to bring their magic to your incredible days ✨

It’s so busy for wedding enquiries, consultations and bookings at the moment I am working flat out and a little behind with sharing the flowers on here. To be trusted and recommended by incredible venues, other suppliers and most importantly my amazing couples is something I have proudly earnt through consistently delivering work to the highest standards, being reliable, easy to work with and most importantly…nice! (The underrated quality)

I’m incredibly proud of this business. Everything I do has heart and is driven by a solid ethos (Using exclusively British grown and not flown seasonal flowers, not using single use plastics, working with local growers who care deeply about their stems, knowing they are being paid fairly, not exposed to chemicals etc)

As a result of using these special flowers, set ups have that natural, authentic feeling and have the power to transform a space into something incredible, unique to you and your day.

This is always the why I work this way!✨
