Excellent quality and a faultless service

I have followed Sophie for a few years on Instagram, and have always loved seeing her gorgeous creations. So when we started planning our wedding, I went straight to her!

She was an absolute dream to work with right from the get go. The most charming and loveliest lady, who understood our vision straight away and gave so many thoughtful ideas and advice which made the whole experience so fun and so enjoyable!

On the day, she styled our teepee beautifully with lush greenery, and the bud vases on the tables were absolutely perfect. My bouquet was stunning, and every floral arrangement she created was just as incredible. Even Indie (our four legged flower girl) adored the floral collar Sophie created!

The quality of the flowers and Sophie’s overall service was truly faultless. We feel so lucky to have had her talent and expertise throughout the planning and on the big day. Thank you, Sophie, for everything! We couldn’t be more grateful or happier with how it all looked!

Highly recommend!

We used Sophie for our wedding and couldn’t be happier. I just knew I wanted sunflowers, and she created stunning flower arrangements incorporating them beautifully. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she even went above and beyond by meeting with my Nan (who was making our wedding cake) to help with the floral decorations. Everything looked perfect on the day. Thank you Sophie xx

Highly recommend!

Sophie is absolutely amazing. Communication was excellent throughout the planning process, she was able to come up with so many ideas despite our short time frame. They were the most beautiful flowers I’ve ever seen, especially mine and the bridesmaid’s bouquets. The venue was decorated beautifully.

The most gorgeous wedding flowers!

Sophie arranged the most gorgeous flowers for our wedding! From the beginning she totally understood the vision: cottage garden flowers that looked like they had just been brought inside. Sophie was professional and accommodating throughout, and we very much appreciated that she offered to go to the venue (which she hadn't before worked at) before the wedding to help visualise the space. We really appreciated that she listened to our (many!) discussions about the type, styles and colours of flowers we liked (and perhaps more importantly, those we didn't!). She was very upfront and clear about her prices which were incredibly reasonable for how gorgeous her creations were. On the day, Sophie had already set everything up by the time the bridal party arrived and she stayed to move centerpieces around after the ceremony. All of her creations were beautiful, and we received many compliments on them! Thank you so much!

Great Service and Beautiful Flowers

Booking with Sophie was so easy and she made every step of the process as seamless as possible. I reached out to her looking for bouquets, button holes and some small decorative venue flowers. She was so helpful and we spent some time going back and forth with a mood board to find exactly what I was looking for. We had a call a couple months out from the wedding to make sure everything was in place, and after that I was able to put everything out of my mind until the big day.
The flowers were perfect. Wonderful, sculptural bouquets that matched my brief exactly, with matching button holes and lovely bud vases for the wedding breakfast. Everything was as I had envisioned and great value for money. Sophie herself was so lovely and was happy to go back and forth withe me as many times as needed to get all my questions/ideas answered. Would absolutely recommend!

The Best Florist!

Sophie was fantastic from start to finish. We were unsure what would look right, but Sophie had so many ideas that worked to our budget and fitted with our scheme.
Sophie sent concept ideas through, and nothing we asked for was ever a problem!
On the day she even fixed the cake with some flowers as it didn’t look as nice as we have expected!
She was perfect for us and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a florist!

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! 💕

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.

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!

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.

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
