Recent work

A few things that have left the bench

Hand-tied bouquets, hat boxes and arrangements made to order for all sorts of occasions. Nothing here is a set product, so treat them as a feel for the style rather than a list to pick from. Tell us the occasion and your colours and we will build something around it.

Weddings

Wedding flowers, built around your day

Bridal and bridesmaid bouquets, buttonholes, ceremony and venue pieces, table arrangements and anything else the day calls for. We start with a chat about colours, season and the feel you are after, then put a plan together with you.

Every wedding is quoted individually, because no two orders are the same. Get in touch with your date and we will talk it through.

Funerals and sympathy

Tributes made with care

We make funeral and sympathy flowers to order. Hearts, wreaths, sheafs, coffin sprays, letter and name tributes, or a simple hand-tied bouquet.

You do not need to have it worked out before you call. Tell us the date and anything that mattered to them, a favourite colour or flower, and we will take it from there.

Prices depend on the tribute. Call 0191 416 6075 and we will talk it through quietly, or come in and sit down with the florist.

If you would rather speak to the florist face to face, you can book in for a free, no obligation consultation.

Funeral tributes we are asked for most

  • Letter work and name tributes
  • Open and closed hearts
  • Wreaths and open wreaths
  • Sheafs
  • Coffin sprays in 3ft, 4ft and 5ft
  • Hand-tied sympathy bouquets

Every arrangement is made bespoke, so anything not on this list can still be made. Message us on Instagram or call 0191 416 6075 and a member of the team will guide you through the order.

Birthdays and celebrations

Flowers for the good days

Birthdays, anniversaries, new babies, thank yous, congratulations and the days that need no reason at all. Hand-tied bouquets, hat boxes and arrangements in whatever colours suit the person. Add a cake or coffee beans from the counter if you fancy making a parcel of it.

Prices depend on the size and the flowers, so tell us roughly what you want to spend and we will make the most of it.

Celebration bouquets are made to match the occasion, the season and your budget.
Corporate

Flowers for businesses in Washington

Regular arrangements for a reception or salon, launch and event pieces, thank you flowers for clients and staff, and gifts for retirements and leaving dos. We can keep to your brand colours and swap the flowers with the season.

Pricing depends on size and how often you want them, so tell us what you have in mind and we will quote it.

Corporate gifts and event flowers can be paired with coffee and cakes from the cafe.
Seasonal

Christmas wreaths, Valentine's and everything in between

The bench changes with the year. Autumn arrangements in rust and burgundy, door wreaths and table pieces at Christmas, and roses and gift boxes for Valentine's Day.

Christmas and Valentine's get busy quickly and stock is limited, so order early if you can. Ask us for a quote and we will tell you what is realistic for the date you need.

Workshops

Come and make something yourself

We run floral workshops in the cafe, with coffee and cake included. You get the stems, the tools and a florist talking you through it, and you take home whatever you make.

They work well for hen dos, birthdays and team days as a private booking too. Dates are announced on Instagram, or ask us to arrange one for your group.

How to order

Three ways to get an order started

There is no online checkout, because nearly everything we make is bespoke. A quick message or call tells us more than a dropdown ever could.

Timing

Orders are ideally placed in advance so we can get exactly what you want in. Same day is often possible depending on what we have in stock, so it is always worth asking.

Peak times

At Valentine's Day and Mother's Day availability is limited and demand is very high, so set prices and styles are advised. Ordering in advance is vital to avoid disappointment.

Prices

Everything is made to order, so the price depends on the arrangement, the flowers and the size. Tell us what you have in mind and we will give you a quote.

Collection and delivery

You can collect from 3 Emmerson Terrace or we can deliver. Delivery has a minimum spend of £30, and it is free within Washington. Addresses outside Washington incur a small delivery fee.
