Blush pink wedding flowers
We couldn't have been happier with our wedding flowers. The pink floral arrangements were absolutely stunning and even more beautiful than we imagined. Every bouquet and display was fresh, elegant, and perfectly matched our vision.
What really stood out was the time they took to talk everything through with us during the planning process. They listened carefully to our ideas, offered helpful suggestions, and made us feel completely confident that everything would come together perfectly.
They also took care of moving the flowers between our ceremony and reception venues, allowing us to reuse the arrangements throughout the day. This was such a thoughtful touch and made the most of our flowers while creating a beautiful setting at both locations.
We received so many compliments on the flowers, and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a talented florist who genuinely cares about making your wedding day special.

Stunning florals
Petals and Posies provided our florals for our Wedding day in June 2026 and we couldn’t have been happier! From our very first conversation, Nicola took the time to understand our vision and brought it to life even more beautifully than we imagined. We chose a selection of flowers for the Bridal Party and a ‘long and low’ top table centre piece and every arrangement was absolutely stunning. The attention to detail, creativity, and quality of the blooms were exceptional, and everything looked fresh and perfect throughout the day.
Nicola was very professional, friendly and made such an effort to ensure that our florals for the day were perfect - it was easy to put trust in Nicola for our big day. We received many compliments on the flowers and we would highly recommend Petals and Posies to others - thank you so much!

Thank you so much Nicola.
My bridal bouquet was gorgeous, and I was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful and generously sized the bridesmaids’ bouquets were too. I didn’t expect them to be so big and elegant! The soft pastel colours were absolutely perfect and complemented our wedding theme beautifully.
The flower crowns for the flower girls were adorable, the buttonholes were lovely, and the flowers for our mums were such a special touch. Every arrangement was made with so much care and attention to detail.
We received so many compliments on the flowers throughout the day, and they looked amazing in our photographs. Thank you for helping make our wedding day so special and memorable. I would highly recommend your services to any future bride looking for stunning wedding flowers. 💐💕✨

Beautiful and outstanding wedding flowers
Our wedding flowers were amazing.. and we recieved so many flowers for our wedding. Nicola created all aspects of our wedding and even add an extra splash of colour, which enhanced the bridesmaids dresses. Every flower was perfect in all our arrangements and the amazing skill to re- position flowed throughout the wedding day is excellent. Everything was packaged up well for arrival at all the different parts of our wedding. But the most important part was Nicola in her communication throughout our wedding preparation and the lead up.. great booking system for communication. Thank you Nicola and Paul for your wonderful support.

Beautiful wedding flowers
We chose Petals and Posies for our wedding flowers and were super happy with the results. I left the choice of flowers to Nicola to choose as I just wanted something bright and in season. My bouquet and the bridesmaids bouquets were beautiful and really unique. I felt like Nicola got a really good feel for what I wanted and I got something special. They also provided bud vases and candles for our tables which were also lovely and fitted in with our rustic theme. All flowers were delivered in good time and beauftifully presented. I highly recommend.

Highly recommended!
I honestly can’t recommend Nicola highly enough for anyone searching for the perfect wedding flowers.
From the very beginning, Nicola was so warm, professional, and incredibly helpful when discussing the floral arrangements for my wedding day. As someone who had lots of ideas and struggled to make decisions, she was so patient—always offering suggestions and replying to emails so kindly and quickly to help in any way she could.
Nicola’s knowledge and passion for flowers really shine through. She took the time to truly understand my vision and helped bring to life the bouquet and florals I had always dreamed of. Our design appointment was extremely helpful , and I felt completely confident I was in the best hands.
On the wedding day, I was honestly blown away. The bouquets, buttonholes, and table centrepieces were absolutely stunning—more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. It meant so much to see everything come together so perfectly.
We are so, so grateful to Nicola for making our day feel even more magical.

Flowers that told our story...
The flowers at our wedding were nothing short of breathtaking. Every arrangement felt thoughtfully designed, perfectly capturing the atmosphere we dreamed of — elegant, romantic, and full of life. From the stunning bouquets to the beautiful table displays and ceremony florals, the attention to detail was incredible. The colours were perfectly balanced, the blooms were fresh and vibrant, and everything came together so seamlessly that guests couldn’t stop commenting on how beautiful it all looked. Nicola truly understood our vision and brought it to life in the most magical way. The moment the flowers were delivered with such care to my bridal suite, brought tears to my eyes and set the tone for the entire day. The inclusion of flowers unique to my home in South Africa made everything feel even more meaningful, adding a deeply personal touch that connected our celebration to my roots. Nicola and Paul played an integral part in our wedding, and their effort, passion and kindness will be remembered as vividly as our beautiful florals. Even after the wedding, the flowers have continued to bring joy — filling the homes of our family and friends and extending the beauty of our day into their everyday lives. The flowers didn’t just decorate the day — they elevated it, creating a setting that felt unforgettable and completely personal. We couldn not have asked for anything more perfect.

Amazing Florist
Nicola was brilliant from the very start in helping me choose my wedding flowers, especially as it was a December wedding. She was incredibly personable and took the time to talk me through different options and colour combinations, making sure everything tied in beautifully with the Christmas theme and champagne colour scheme. Communication throughout was really positive, and she even helped incorporate my Nan’s engagement ring by tying it to my bouquet, which made it extra special. I would definitely recommend.

Partner in petals :D
From the very start when I enquired Nicola was absolutely stand out from other florists in terms of helping me refine what I wanted, giving me advice on what was in season, and how to get the best value for money. I really felt like we were partners to make my wedding spectacular 😉
My bouquet in particular was so so perfect, just wow, it was gorgeous. So many of the guests commented on the center pieces too and just how big they were!
Do not hesitate using Nicola and Petals & Posies :D
