Beautiful bespoke bouquet

Future Reference couldn’t have been more perfect for our event! We had a loose idea of what we wanted but FR went above and beyond to moodboard for us and really take into account all other elements of our event. The flowers were beautiful and we had so many compliments, highly recommend!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.

Shannon Kurlander
Shannon Kurlander
Founder

I’m a South East London–based florist and multidisciplinary artist, writer, actor, creator, who treats flowers as an extension of my broader artistic practice. Under the name Future Reference, I approach floristry with the same curiosity and instinct that shape my work elsewhere: guided by mood, story, and a love for the unexpected.

Working from my studio in Brockley, I’ve developed a distinct style that leans into bold choices, seasonal textures, and an offbeat sense of romance. My clients tend to be the cool, fun couple; the ones who want flowers that say something, not just sit in the corner looking polite.

What began as bouquets for friends has grown quickly, with recent highlights including pop-ups at the iconic New York venue Baby’s All Right and One Hundred Hotel Shoreditch. Future Reference lives in that space between art and atmosphere, where florals become part of the moment rather than decoration around it.
