I first came across Nogard Creations at the NEC in March 2025 and fell in love with the resin chess set they had created. Our review may be a little premature as we won't be receiving our goods until next year, but so far, they have been great. I paid a deposit to drop off our flowers the day after our wedding. With my head in a complete muddle, I did forget to respond to their email asking what time would work for us, but when I arrived on the day, I called up and they were able to be at the premises within 25 minutes. I dropped off two bouquets which I have been assured is more than enough and we are getting a chess board, coasters and a paperweighr made. Laura emailed me pictures of my flowers the same day along with a summary of what we had ordered. She has offered to dry extra flowers so if we want to add anything, we have options available. Laura also informed us of what the entire process entails and reassured us of the updates we will receive through the process. Super excited to see the results next year!

My partner and I got married last month and used Rachel to take care of our dog peanut for the day. From start to finish, the care and attention to detail was fantastic. Our boy had a meet and greet with Rachel first to make sure they got along and to discuss exactly what we wanted on the day. On the day before the wedding peanut had a groom so he looked incredible for our wedding photos. I had no reason to worry about our dog or arranging care for him the whole day. Thankyou again Rachel for your amazing work🥰

We have several pieces from Flower Preservation, and every single one has been absolutely beautiful. The quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail are outstanding. One of our favourite pieces is a lovely table featuring flowers from a very special occasion, which has become a real talking point in our home. It's amazing to see meaningful flowers transformed into something that can be enjoyed every day for years to come. The whole process was smooth, professional, and handled with great care. You can tell how much passion goes into every piece created. We highly recommend Flower Preservation for any special event or occasion. Whether it's a wedding, anniversary, birthday, memorial, or any moment you want to remember, the results are truly stunning and something you'll treasure forever.

Georgia is absolutely fantastic! Willow and Watson (our two beagles) took to Georgia really well, she understood them from the get go and handled both their cheekiness, stubbornness and typical beagle characters really well. Georgia was incredibly flexible and took care of their every needs, from walking them to the aisle, ensuring they were looking at the camera and attentive when the weather was extremely hot, taking them back home and spending time with them so they weren’t alone. What a lovely professional we found to take care of our two, she went above and beyond expectations, couldn’t recommend enough! Thank you so much.

We cannot be more grateful to Anna and Thimble for making our wedding so special. Anna was so receptive to everything we asked: we wanted Thimble to not only bring us our rings during the ceremony, but to also distribute our wedding favours (mini jars of jam) after the ceremony. And Thimble just smashed it right out of the park! We will always remember the moment when Waltz of the Flowers played and Thimble came trotting in. Thimble was truly the star of the day.

Having Matthew sketch our wedding was one of the best decisions we made, and we genuinely can't recommend him highly enough. His attention to detail was incredible. He didn't just sketch what he saw, he captured the atmosphere, the little moments, and the personalities of our guests in a way that photographs alone can't. He notice the small details, the flowers, the hand made table numbers, the photo bunting we’d created. His sketches truly caught the magic of our day and they will be treasured forever. What really sets him apart is his unique artistic style. It's whimsical, full of character, and unlike anything else we've seen. Throughout the day he was friendly, professional, and blended seamlessly into the celebrations while creating beautiful drawings that our guests were asking to see before the wedding was even over!  Thank you Matthew for creating memories we’ll cherish forever. We’re so grateful.

We booked in faith around 2 years before our wedding date. We went to Barleylands and spoke to them about how it works and the worries of the owl flying away with our rings attached. The birds are so well trained and she showed us how it would work. A week before the wedding we went for a pre wedding trial. On the day the groom went a bit earlier to practice as it was a suprise for everyone. The owl was a great suprise to all the guest and went perfectly. I recommend as something different as a great guest suprise

"We were completely stuck when looking for a reading for our wedding as everything we read we couldn’t relate to, it was too old fashioned, too cheesy or we’d heard it at lots of other weddings! So my lovely Sister-in-Law Deborah created a beautiful bespoke piece just for us and it meant so much." - Lindsay -

We got married in July and had the most perfect day and a big part of this was being able to have our dog, Arlo, attend the wedding. When looking at venues, Woofs & Weddings came highly recommended and we can see why! Becky was absolutely fantastic from beginning to end. Communication was always quick and easy and she was incredibly accommodating. She was able to add my parent’s dog to our booking so that both dogs could be cared for around the wedding, which we really appreciated. Before the wedding, we met Becky for a walk with both dogs so they could get to know her and we could chat through the logistics for the big day. On the wedding day itself, Becky was absolutely amazing. I completely trusted that Arlo was being well looked after and genuinely didn’t have to worry about him at all. Everything was so smooth and professional. She brought him to see me before the ceremony for a quick cuddle and knew exactly when was best to bring him over for photographs without us having to think about it. She was also somehow brilliant at getting him to pose for the camera!!! Becky kept us updated with photos in our group chat throughout her time with the dogs so we could see how they were doing and knew they were happy and settled. Having Arlo at our wedding was so important to us and Becky made the whole experience completely stress-free. We got to enjoy having him as part of our day without ever having to worry about who was looking after him or what he needed. We really couldn’t recommend Woofs & Weddings enough to anyone wanting their dog to be part of their wedding day! 🤍

My husband and I were Greg’s first clients when he started as a personal trainer. He was very personable, professional and attentive. He kept us motivated throughout I would highly recommend him and would definitely work with him again even though I am now married.
