MEET SAM CLARK FROM FREE RANGE FLORISTRY 07887 775 217 | www.freerangeflori stry.co.uk Q – Tell us about your company. Nestled in the heart of Kendal, we specialise in weddings and British blooms for any budget. Creating flowers in line with nature’s rhythm in a fine art, loose style. Q – What services do you offer? Bespoke weddings, editorial flowers, fabulous plants and a specialist consultation area that is used to meet with several wedding suppliers at once, saving a lot of time and stress. Q – How long before the wedding should couples get in touch? If the wedding is small, anytime up to a few weeks or days. If the look required is British and eclectic, then up to a year so the blooms can be planned and grown by us on our acre plot. Q – What’s your favourite part of the job? Being able to bring my children to work every day. I love having the freedom to be creative and a full time working mum. Q – Do you have any top tips for couples looking for their wedding flowers? Foliage isn’t cheaper. Seasonal flowers are always more expensive, as it means they’re British. Florists won’t undercut each other. Get a quote on whose style you love and nothing more. Anyone who tells you these two myths about wedding flowers isn’t a florist. MEET KATE HIGGINS FROM FABULOUS FLOWERS AND EVENTS 01253 591 921 | www.flow ersfleetwood.co.uk Q – Tell us about your company. I’m Kate from the Lancashire-based company Fabulous Flowers and Events. I offer all your venue styling needs, such as chair covers, sashes, archways, ceremony aisle packages, centrepieces, table linen, vintage tea setups and much more. Q – What services do you offer? I’m also a florist, and I can create bouquets, buttonholes, centrepieces, arches and thank you posies. I deliver all over Lancashire, Cumbria and The Lake District. Q – How long before the wedding should couples get in touch? The best time to book your flowers and venue décor is when you have decided on your overall theme and colour scheme, that way, we can work together to bring your ideas to life. Q – What’s your favourite part of the job? I love what I do, and I hope it shows in my work. I adore everything about weddings and that I get to be a part of your special day, it’s the most rewarding part of the job. www.jogr eenfieldphotographer.com www.clar egelderdphotography.co.uk www.claregelderdphotography.co.uk www.jessicastottphotography.com 44
