Fiona grows her own flowers and foliage, managing careful planting, strategic cutting, and timing the growth cycle to ensure that the blooms are at their absolute best, perfection, for the day of your wedding.

As well as having magic powers in the garden she is a wonderful listener, this super power meant that she realised our dreams of colour and structure, gently guiding our choices and suggesting combinations that worked wonderfully well for an October wedding.

As well as having incredible visual impact the subtle scent of the locally grown arrangements was just glorious, all through the RSA the table arrangements and hangings gently perfumed the building.

Fiona made flower crowns for the tiny bridesmaids that they didn't want to take off, button holes for the groomsmen that complemented the bridesmaids bouquets and added unique blooms to the Groom's buttonhole and Bride's bouquet symbolising their special relationship.

On a larger scale she manufactured meadow boxes that lined the Grand Staircase and decorated the Vaults for the after party.

Fiona's approach to sustainability is impressive, she is happy to source vintage cut crystal and glassware and her lovely husband makes the meadow boxes (as well as delicious scones) so that they are a perfect fit for the space. At her suggestion we gifted the individual tiny vases that decorated the tables as wedding favours providing a personal and exclusive treasure to take home that will be enjoyed for years to come.

Air miles are not a concern as all our flowers were grown by Fiona right here in the UK, in her garden and on her allotment, but there was some milage to take into account. Fiona is based near Chesterfield but arrived in London bright eyed and bushy tailed on Saturday morning to bring the wedding to life.

The consultation process was great, initially by email, thank you Hitched, then over the phone and finally in person where we visited twice, once to talk in principle and then a few weeks before to finalise all the tiny details, and to see our flowers almost ready to be cut.

We wholeheartedly recommend Upside-down in a Flower Bed, Fiona's knowledge is only matched by her skill.

Fiona really made my vision come to life. The flowers were beautiful and everyone said how luxury they looked.

We loved working with Fiona for our wedding flowers. My partner and I didn't have a specific vision for our flowers, but Fiona really helped us craft one by taking us through her garden and showing us some great options for seasonal flowers. The flowers looked stunning on the day, and were commented upon by all of our guests. It really made the day more special, helped even more so by the fact that they are all grown locally. The homemade scones provided upon our visits were also a lovely touch

From start to finish, planning, advising and showing ys her garden, this lady (Fiona ) was amazing, from not knowing what to organise, Fiona took control of our flowers with listening to our ideas to colours and styles. I can say anymore than she was bloody fantastic,
Plus her scones and teas where out of this world xxx

Many many thanks xx

Fiona was absolutely wonderful- she was the most helpful, supportive and calm person to have on her team and was a god send! Our visits were so personal being able to see the flowers being grown for us (and the home made treats!)
I was struggling to picture exactly what I wanted so we picked some must haves and left Fiona to do what she does best and what she created us was stunning! Cannot thank her or recommend her enough

Fiona has been wonderful and welcoming since I first reached out to her. I met with her in her studio, where she spoke me through my options, listened to what kind of flowers I was looking for, and even had some scones. Her garden is beautiful, and she even invited me to pop by at any time, which I did take her up on a couple times. We trusted her with our vision and she absolutely delivered. I couldn't have asked for more perfect flowers on our special day. They are still lasting now, a week later too! Thank you so so much Fiona, for your creativity and know-how, enabling our vision to come to life! We will be sure to visit your lovely garden again soon :)

Fiona was incredible. She immediately understood my autumnal vision — the textures, colours, and scents I dreamed of. When we met in her garden that September, over coffee and scones, I knew I’d found a kindred spirit in colour. Though the weeks before the wedding were hectic and we couldn’t meet again in person, her communication was flawless, and I trusted her completely. Her professionalism, creativity, and reliability made everything effortless. My bouquet was breathtaking — rich jewel tones, layered textures, and intoxicating scents. If you want someone who truly reads your vision and brings it to life with artistry and heart, Fiona is the one.

Fiona was the friendliest florist I think we could have asked for! We had a wonderful time meeting up with her to discuss our flowers and getting a tour of her fantastic garden.
She was super flexible to our needs and able to deliver the most beautiful flowers that ticked all of our boxes.
We really felt her passion in her work. It was a joy to have such a beautiful bouquet that felt like it represented me.
Thank you!

From the very start Fiona has been nothing short of fantastic. She invited us to her home to visit her beautiful garden and welcomed us with scones and tea. She was friendly, flexible and full of fantastic ideas to make my vision a reality. The flowers she delivered on our wedding day were beautiful and exactly what I envisioned. I’m so grateful for every effort that Fiona put into our beautiful flowers and think the value for money is incredible. I couldn’t recommend her more! Thank you so much!

Fiona did a fantastic job on our wedding flowers! She was so welcoming and knowledgeable when I visited her home garden where she grows all her own flowers, loved having them grown and arranged locally. We didn't have many set ideas or expectations for flowers, but Fiona guided us through the process and made a beautiful bridal bouquet, 5 bridesmaids bouquets, 5 grooms/men button holes, and a sweet little wand for my baby flower girl! Thank you so much forbthe gorgeous arrangements!

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.

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.

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

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.

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!
