Heather and James' wedding was a fusion of faith and cultures, and that ran through every detail of their day — from Heather's bouquet tied with Kente cloth to the table runners adorned with African gestures.

Emma and Sam's wedding had a detail I haven't encountered before: Sam's grandmother, a retired florist, was involved in the flower choices. For me, that said everything about the kind of wedding this was going to be — rooted in family and tradition.

Meg and Jamie's brief was beautifully clear: celebrate the season. No forcing, no importing, no colour palette that couldn't have arrived naturally in an English spring.

The brief was to bring the brand’s DNA into the room. Wheat was the thread. The rolling hills and farmland of Loretto, Kentucky were the landscape.

The Future Plate was founded in 2021 by Julian George as the UK’s largest collective of African and Caribbean chefs — a project built at the intersection of cuisine and culture, with the express purpose of addressing the lack of infrastructure and visibility for Black chefs in British hospitality.

There are briefs where the couple hands you everything and steps back, and then there are briefs like Misha and Adrian's — where the couple arrives with a fully formed creative vision and asks you to build on it. I love this kind of creative collaboration.

I knew immediately that the flowers needed to respond to that sensibility. Ikebana — the Japanese art of flower arranging — values structure, restraint and the deliberate use of empty space.

Ravina and Tom's wedding was a joyful, colourful celebration — and from the moment Ravina described her vision, I knew this was going to be one of those briefs that stays with you.

The event was a celebration of women of colour from all different backgrounds and professions — a proper gathering, the kind where people arrive as strangers and leave feeling seen.

Some of the most extraordinary weddings I've worked on have had the fewest guests. Jo and Matt's winter wedding at 10-11 Carlton House Terrace was just six people — but that didn’t mean understated flowers.
