"Someday soon we all will be together
If the fates allow
Until then, we'll have to muddle through somehow
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now"
One of my all-time favorite Christmas song seems all the more relevant right now.
Whatever tier you find yourself in, and however you're spending Christmas, keep muddling on!!
Sending lots of love to you all!
Stay safe. It's time to crack open the chocolates if you haven't already!!🎄🎄🎄

It's been go go go at MFTF hq this week!
Thank you to everyone that has ordered. You're the best!
Can you spot yours???!!
I hate to double post BUT...I completely forgot about the swags!
For those of you that who aren't keen on wreaths, a traditional swag is a great alternative!
As always, the foliage is all locally grown. Even the pine cones and pampas grass are British!
Choose between two styles.
Traditional, lovely scented, festive foliages teamed with traditional touches and finished with a bow. £17.50
Or Contemporary, that includes scented Eucalyptus, Pampas grass, pine cones and topped off with a hessian bow. £21.50
Order between now and Black Friday (27th Nov) to receive 10% discount!!
Availability is super limited this year so get in quick to avoid disappointment.
What a beautiful morning to launch my Christmas wreaths!
There are 4 designs this year to keep things super simple. I think we all need simple this year!
All completely eco-friendly and 100% compostable (minus the lush ribbon!)
The lovely foliage is source from Ireland and hertfordshire, and the moss and willow wreath from Lincolnshire. I'd say it's basically guilt free ☺️
Choose between two styles.
Traditional, full of berries, dried oranges, pine cones, just to mention a few! Finished with a luxury red bow that screams Christmas.
Or Contemporary, that includes scented Eucalyptus, Pampas grass, pine cones and topped off with a lovely trailing bow.
Full wreath £45 (approx 16 inch edge to edge)
Half wreath £25 (approx 14 inch edge to edge)

Reeeeally beautiful ribbon from
Are you yay or nay for Pampas Grass???
I'm team yay ☺️
DM me of you want to get your hands on some of this lovely British grown Pampas Grass!
I massively support reusing designs throughout a wedding. I mean, why not?!
If I think your floral designs can be used more than once, I will always recommend it 🙂
Sandy & Joe placed the bouquets in Kilner jars and used them to decorate the tartan dressed guest tables. Such a great idea, especially as the bouquets are normally forgotten about when the dance floor is calling!
About last weekend....
I had the PLEASURE of doing my first wedding since March for some lovely friends.
Yes, it wasn't the wedding that they had planned but what it lacked in numbers, it made up for in love. It really was a day full of SO MUCH LOVE.
Sandy was a dream bride and let me do my thing. Her bouquet had to be special, to match that AMAZING dress from Clifford Burr. Full of British flowers from the lovely and foliage from the family home, it oozed late summer vibes.
The day was captured by the super talented I struggled to pick my faves! I'm sure you'll agree that he caught some really special shots.
Anyone else desperate to have a sit down meal with family and friends without having to worry about the C word???
Who would you sit around this table with??
This morning see's the return of a tired florist as a result of flowering my first wedding since February!
Our lovely friends Joe & Sandy were due to marry in May but rescheduled and had an intimate wedding yesterday.
It was full of love, laughter, tears, and neverending pizza from 😍
Early Summer flowers were replaced with GORGEOUS late Summer blooms. All 100% British thanks to
A truly beautiful day captured by
Unforgettable music by

WOW, IT'S HOT!!
Waaaay to hot for fresh flowers!
A little throwback to last year when I had a play around with some lovely British grown dried flowers and some vintage treasures 😍😍😍
I'm thinking of doing a big dried flower order seeing as everyone seems to be going crazy for dried flowers!
Do you love or hate the dried trend????
It's set to be a scorcher by Friday!
I hope you're all able to safely enjoy meeting friends and family 🙂
I'm looking forward to when I can get my hands on buckets of British Dahlias 😍
Stay Safe everyone!!
It's great news that the wedding industry is showing signs of sloooowly starting again.
I can't imagine how difficult this time must be for everyone having to reschedule their dream day.
