Beautiful flowers!

We absolutely adored our wedding flowers, they were stunning! We couldn’t of pictured anything better! Everything was above and beyond perfect. I remember saying on my wedding day, I didn’t know what I expected but I didn’t expect them but in the best possible way. I was blown away, they perfectly matched our decor and day. Completely blown away and loved by everyone.
Thank you so much!

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

Breath taking flowers!

Both my bridesmaids and I nearly cried when we saw the gorgeous flowers! Flowers were a big deal for both my husband and I, and we wanted to make sure they were lovely. Petals and Posies (Nicola) was fantastic during every meeting and very flexible to our wants. The bridesmaids posies were just as gorgeous as mine, and I had flowers wired for my hair that were gorgeous and just what I wanted. Even my hairdresser loved it! Nicola also made us large milk churns with huge wonderful flowers, table centre pieces, button holes, corsages and a long and low arrangement for the top table. We took that with us on honeymoon and enjoyed it for over another week! Absolutely perfect flowers and I wish I could have them everyday!

Fantastic Joe Lillywhite photography took the pictures of my hair!

Wedding ceremony flowers

In my wedding day Nicola did a very good job providing flower for me, and for the church. The decoration was excellent. My bouquet was lovely with lots of delicate pastels tones. I loved to have in the Church lots of whole wheats with a nice ribbon blu navy. She gave me many support and assistance to arrange everything. Highly recommend!
