    Dont think twice ! Just book!

    Fiona is amazing. I cannot thank her enough. Due to a medical emergency I left everything to the last minute. Fiona was at my rescue and went above and beyond thinking of all the small things i had forgotten like a vase for my bouquet through the day. Her flowers were stunning and grown by her and she got me the perfect colour pallet even when I wasn't sure myself what I wanted. She took everything off my plate asked for numbers and just went with it making everything much more easer for me so I could focus on all the other things. I cannot thank her enough or recommend her enough.

    It was wonderful to be able to support you both on your wedding day, even if it was somewhat more remote than usual! The venue and your families were wonderful, with everyone working together to make sure you had what you needed for a truly special day. I am so happy that you were pleased with your flowers, your colours for the event looked beautiful - looking forward to seeing your photos and hope that you come to visit sometime!

    Phil and Amelia’s wedding

    What can I say about Fiona? She was absolutely everything you are looking for in a florist!

    Firstly, she was very open to my ideas and sharing ideas of her own! She told me what could work and if she felt something would work well, she would provide advice.

    She let me and my husband visit her garden which she grows the flowers from, offered us tea, coffee and scones and went through every little details with enough time for me to change my plans if I wanted to.

    She was completely accommodating to my changes I made (I added orange flowers in towards the end) and made everything look absolutely beautiful.

    Some flowers did break away from the bouquets but that it was it is expected from fresh flowers.

    Would definitely recommend her.

    It was a real pleasure to work with you you to plan and curate the flowers for your special day. The addition of a little impactful colour really lifted your bouquet and the addition of other flowers gave you some depth and texture - so pleased that they came together the way they did. you all looked so beautiful!
    I am so disappointed that a few flowers dropped petals - a natural process in changing temperatures and not something that happens usually - hopefully this didn't detract from the overall bouquets. It would be wonderful to see some of your photographs.

    Couldn't rate her higher!!!!

    Well what can I say, Fiona and her flowers are just magic 🥰. Not only we're my flowers just insanely gorgeous but Fiona made the whole process just wonderful. From visits to her beautiful garden, phone calls, messages and of course Grahams scones, I couldn't fault a single thing. I found upside down in a flower bed through hitched and the name caught my eye immediately, I knew this was my kind of woman. Not knowing Fiona or any florists in the area I had no idea what to expect. But she listened to my brief and advised me so well on how best to create my desired look and I just can't put into words how these flowers were beyond what I expected. I've dried some and I've pressed some so they'll be with me forever! Thank you so much Fiona and of course Graham for his scones. We really do hope to stay in touch. All the best, Evie and Rich

    Oh Evie, thank you so much, that's so generous of you. It was lovely to work with you both and to plan the flowers that would create beautiful bouquets and buttonholes for your special day. The colours you chose made creating your flowers so amazing and brought a real brightness to your wedding day in mid-February. It was wonderful to support you and on your birthday too! I really hope that you come and visit us again soon. there will always be fresh scones waiting for you !!

    Fiona is fantastic!

    Fiona did the flowers for our wedding on 8 November - she was amazing all throughout the process from when we first enquired! We were amazed seeing her garden where she grows the flowers she uses. We really loved the idea of having local, seasonal flowers, so Fiona was perfect for us! On the day she more than surpassed our hopes for the flowers - we had a floral arch, a bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquet and three buttonholes for the groom and two groomsmen as well as around 50 bud vases. We couldn’t have asked for more beautiful flowers - they absolutely made the day and the setting. The price was very reasonable for what we had. We can’t thank you enough Fiona!

    Upsidedowninaflowerbed's reply:

    ..ah thank you for such kind words. It means a great deal that I was able to support you both on your special day. It was an absolute pleasure to provide everything you needed and I am really pleased that you loved the outcome! There were so many flowers the venue smelt amazing and the colours you chose looked stunning in the autumn light - so pretty and bright! I hope the Arch supports the flowers in your own garden - get in touch if you want any help choosing - the more we grow the better for wildlife! Wishing you all the best for your future happiness, keep in touch!

    Fabulous Flowers & Service

    From initial enquiry to delivery of flowers to the wedding venue, Fiona and Graham were professional, friendly and welcoming each time we saw each other. Fiona was able to work with the requirements I had, and produced such stunning bouquets and buttonholes for our special day. Her recommendations of adding different type of flowers to elevate the flower arrangement made the bouquets and buttonholes look exceptional. Highly recommend the flowers that Fiona grows, they lasted for more than 2 weeks from when they were cut.

    Upsidedowninaflowerbed's reply:

    It was amazing to to work with you and to have the time to plan the flowers for your wonderful wedding! The colours were fabulous and so beautiful with your tea dress and wedding dress. I loved growing the flowers to make your bouquet really special and will never forget how the flowers changed colour! I am so pleased to have helped create exceptional flowers for you - you are welcome to visit any time, please come by any time you are up here.

    Beautiful home grown wedding flowers

    Fiona did our flowers for our wedding celebrations in summer, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the results! From the first consultation to the final arrangements for the day, she went above and beyond.

    The bouquets, button holes, and buckets of flowers were absolutely stunning and it made it even more special knowing they were grown locally. We received so many compliments on the flowers from our guests and we would highly recommend to anyone looking for wedding flowers!

    Upsidedowninaflowerbed's reply:

    It was wonderful to be able to provide locally grown flowers to create the wedding you dreamed of! Growing, picking and arranging them, for both of your events, used the best British seasonal blooms and the buckets of fresh flowers. It was a real pleasure to work with you - I am so happy that everyone complimented you on the flowers - it all adds to what looked like a wonderful and memorable day!

    Blooming brilliant

    Fiona was one of my favourite suppliers to work.
    Her approach really worked for me to go from indecisive with wild ideas to a clear vision for high impact florals for the wedding day and to enjoy beyond.

    Communication was great and she clearly has a structure that works, but doesn't feel restrictive and it takes away any stress. Fiona was flexible with changes to wedding party requirements and extras added at the garden visit. We particularly love her sustainable approach - growing in her fabulous garden and allotment.

    She and Graham were brilliant on the day too and everything was set up perfectly.
    Flowers started out being a box to tick in wedding planning but turned into the highlight of the day for us and our guests.

    I was so pleased Fiona had suggested to think ahead about where the arrangements would go after the wedding day, to truly enjoy them for as long as possible. Our families, bridal party and close family friends loved their pieces to take home, we took the milk crate on mini moon with us, and my bouquet has been preserved in the form of a display block, tealight holders, cake stand, and a necklace which I wear every day. So I'm still getting compliments on our wedding flowers months later!

    Thank you 🥰

    What a lovely and kind review! It was lovely to work with you to try to achieve what you wanted for your lovely wedding day! I am always so happy to be a small but important part of my couples planning and special day. The colours you chose for your flowers and the styles and arrangements you wanted were wonderful to create. A truly memorable event and venue to decorate and flower. We're so pleased you shared the flowers and have saved some as mementos and keepsakes. What a lovely idea! An absolute pleasure to be able to open the garden, talk through thoughts and produce the flowers that enhanced your wedding. You'd be welcome to call in any time! xx

    Absolutely incredible florist and the most beautiful flowers

    Fiona provided the most gorgeous wedding flowers for our wedding in June - arch decoration, bouquets, hair flowers and table flowers along with petals for our flower girl. We asked for as much colour and variety as possible and she went above and beyond our wishes. Every single guest commented on how lovely the flowers were and they completely made the décor (we didn't need anything other than the florals). Fiona was also incredible in the run up to the wedding - letting us walk around the garden to pick out flowers as well as running through different options for bouquets and hair pins. I cannot recommend them enough.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely review.
    It was an absolute joy to meet you and work with you both to create your beautiful wedding flowers. I am very pleased you loved the flowers and that your guests enjoyed them too. I hope you had a most wonderful day - My very best wishes for your future together xx

    Personalized and perfect

    We chose Fiona because she offered the option to go to her garden and choose out your flowers. Which for me just added that extra bit of personalisation. Fiona did a brilliant job of creating our perfect bunch with very little information from myself as I had no knowledge of flowers. She was amazing to work with an we had no stress at all through the whole process. Would highly recommend!!!

    Upsidedowninaflowerbed's reply:

    It was amazing to work with you both and help you choose the flowers and colours that would really enhance your special day. A real joy to see your ideas coming together and to bring your final perfect flowers to you on the day.
