Bespoke, high quality floristry on the Isles of Scilly

On these islands flowers have been a way of life for many, many years.  Flower farming is at the heart of island life and evidence of its history is spread across the fields, whatever they may now be used for, in the form of narcissi or gladioli, iris or Belladonna lilies peeping out from an abundance of green.  Here at Island Bride Flowers I aim to celebrate this and pay tribute to these beautiful 'islands of flowers'.  Offering a range of floristry services from weddings to workshops I work in a natural,  uncomplicated style that is in tune with my surroundings.  Beautiful islands, beautiful flowers, beautiful florals.

My love of flowers began at a young age.  Nurtured by parents and grand parents who were keen gardeners I was learning botanical names as a young child. Training and beginning my floristry career in Hertfordshire I moved to St.Martin's in the Isles of Scilly with my partner, Jon, in Spring 2008. Having taken on a seasonal contract at Churchtown Farm we quickly fell in love with the islands and decided to make them our home. After several years working as the farm florist, an island wedding of our own and the arrival of our two children, Jowan and Elodie, I have built up my business naturally and gradually.  With local knowledge of the islands, understanding of the sometimes tricky logistics, good contacts in the flower growing and distribution industry and most importantly a passion for flowers I offer a friendly, bespoke service. Whether it's a wedding or a workshop I look forward to sharing my love of flowers and these beautiful islands.
