Absolutely stunning flowers and designs

Sophie is the most amazing florist I could have ever dreamed of hiring. From the start we were on the same page and I could see her work would be truly beautiful. Thought the whole process she was brilliant when listening to all my excitable requests and she did a beautiful job of making my dream flowers come true. EVERYONE COMPLEMENTED OUR FLOWER!!! The photographers, venue, cake lady and our driver all posted amazing photos of our flowers. With our photographer saying they were the best they had ever seen, which was so lovely to hear. I'm still blown away with the beautiful of all the stunning work Sophie did for our wedding, and I cannot wait to see them again in all our professional photos. 5 stars just doesn't do Sophie's phenomenal work justice! 💖💐

The most AMAZING florist !!

Sophie was a pro from the beginning I was overwhelmed at first but she put me at ease and I put my full trust in her vision. She took all my ideas on board. She was also very conscious about my budget and helped me work around where I could save money with flowers. As a florist she is exceptional but as a person she is even better. She is the loveliest person ever and went above and beyond to execute my vision. I cannot thank Sophie enough for all she done for me and her work was so beautiful and we had so many compliments on the flowers.
Thank you Soph! 💕

If you want a florist with vision and an ability to understand your requirements

then Sophie is your girl and was wonderful to work with. I gave her a brief of the colour palette I wanted to use, flowers I loved and images that inspired me. She went above and beyond delivering an amazing floral scene that was enjoyed by everyone. My bouquet was gorgeous and just as I had imagined, the colours stunning. I wanted to maximise the use of our flowers so they didn't have just one purpose; signing table arrangement was moved to the sweetheart table after the ceremony, bridesmaid bouquets were centre pieces on the tables together with bud vases and aisle meadow arrangements were used as skirts for the sweetheart table, bar etc. Sophie was really on board with this. As I love flowers, we took a lot of them home and they lasted another 2wks with regular trimming and rearrangement, which was amazing. Highly recommend Sophie for whatever the occasion.

From Vision to Reality - My FAVOURITE Supplier

From the moment I first spoke with Sophie, she completely understood the vision I had for my wedding. Her quote document was thoughtfully detailed, including my inspiration pictures and color scheme. No detail was too small for her care. A few weeks before the wedding, I met with Sophie to settle the final balance in cash after receiving a gift from a family member. On the morning of the wedding, she personally delivered my flowers to my parents' house, where I was getting ready, then headed to the venue to set up. She stayed through the ceremony to seamlessly move the floral arrangements to the reception barn.

The flowers were absolutely breathtaking, truly unlike anything I’ve ever seen. I still receive compliments on my bouquet to this day, and I even pressed a few blooms to cherish forever.

Sophie’s talent, dedication, and attention to detail made all the difference. I would recommend her to anyone, she’s the best in the business!

Amazing Wedding Flowers

Sophie is exactly the kind of vendor you want to be part of your wedding. Not only is she extremely talented in her field but she is not at all pushy and most importantly a lovely person to deal with!

Sophie offered a range of ideas and suggestions to help us choose some of the most wonderful flowers that matched our venue perfectly. With little (and quite frankly useless) direction from us, Sophie managed to pull together exactly what we needed.

If you need flowers I promise that you will not be disappointed by going with Sophie Chilvers Floral Design. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.

October 2024 - Emily & Tristan

Sophie was absolutely amazing from start to finish, she took my ideas, which I struggled to put into words, and delivered exactly what I was hoping for. I was so pleased that she was able to find the exact shade of pink flowers I wanted, which I know were not easy to find! While we were all busy getting ready in the morning, Sophie set up the reception venue and made sure everything was perfect.. before hand delivering my bouquet to me. The bouquet was stunning and the flowers just brought everything together on the day! Thank you so much Sophie, I cannot recommend her enough! Love Tristan and Emily xxx

Stunning flower for our wedding

I came across Sophie during my overwhelming search for a flowers designer for our wedding in Aug 24. Sophie was very responsive and very accommodated with our ideas and budget. I had a pretty clear vision on what I would like but I was blown away by what Sophie and team had created for us on the day. Due to the weather we had to move our ceremony to indoor location, Sophie and team was so professional. They re-created the whole room so amazingly, it was magical. My bouquet was stunning. We had so many compliments on our flowers and endless requests for her contact details. Every details was well considered and designed. The flowers really made our day so special and it will live in our memory forever. I couldn't have asked for a better designer and team to create our wedding flowers. Sophie is not only a fantastic designer but she is also an artist. I highly recommend Sophie and team for anyone who need amazing flowers for their wedding and events. Thank you Sophie for making our day look amazing.

Just amazing!!

Sophie did an amazing job with the flowers.
Not only were the flowers beautiful but the colours were spot on and completely complemented my dress. The pocket flowers were exactly how I imagined them and the guys loved them. You made a vision come to life and I can't thank you enough.

I’m so glad we picked Sophie!

Sophie did an amazing job for our wedding. The flowers were perfect - stunning and just what I wanted. She was flexible and accommodating from the start as I kept changing my mind about what we required… she executed everything as we wanted it and set it all up perfectly on the day. She was always easy to get in touch with too. I think the service was very good value for money! So happy we picked her for our big day!

Beautiful flowers created by a beautiful lady

We are so happy with our beautiful flowers that were created and installed by the amazing Sophie.
Sophie sets up a useful consultation call beforehand to gather your ideas and then sends out a mood board afterwards which really helps you to see a vision coming to life.
Sophie was responsive and the first time we met at a pre meet at the venue Sophie was so warm and welcoming she felt more like a friend.
On the day Sophie and her team arrived on time and well each & every one of us were blown away with the results.
Thank you for all your hard work xxxx

Amazing - perfect flowers for our special day

Working with Sophie to organise the perfect flowers for my wedding day was made easy by Sophie’s flexibility, calmness and attention to detail. Sophie was friendly and put my mind at ease when I was stressing about organising my flowers. She was willing to travel long distances to meet me to discuss the flowers/collect the vessels and really paid attention to what I wanted. Her finished floral creations for my wedding were stunning. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience or better flowers!

I was just blown away with how magnificent a job Sophie did with the flowers on my sisters wedding day. I have never seen such beautiful displays!! We were working within a pretty tight budget and Sophie offered lots of choices to meet our needs. We were never too sure of which flowers but Sophie guided us and truly delivered something totally stunning. I would highly recommend her to anyone and grab her before she’s booked out forever!!

Beautiful flowers for my daughters wedding

Sophie did a simply wonderful job with the flowers at my daughters wedding, both in the church and marquee and the wedding bouquets. I can not recommend her highly enough.
