A note on seasons. Peonies, tulips and ranunculus have their own seasons. When a stem is out of season we swap in the closest match for colour and shape, and we tell you before it goes out.

Ordering, start to finish

    Your flowers are tied by hand that morning, wrapped in paper and on their way.

Weddings & events

How it works

  1. Say hello

    Tell us your date, venue and any ideas, however rough. A few colours or a mood is plenty to start with.

  2. Come for a chat

    A relaxed, no-obligation consultation in the shop, or by phone or video if that is easier. We talk through flowers, colours and budget.

  3. Your proposal

    You receive a written quote listing every arrangement. We adjust it until you are happy, and a deposit holds your date.

  4. Flowers on the day

    We make everything fresh, deliver it to your venue and set it up, so you can simply enjoy the day.

What is included

  • A consultation and a written, itemised proposal
  • Bridal and bridesmaid bouquets, buttonholes and corsages
  • Ceremony, arch and table arrangements
  • Delivery and set-up at your venue
  • Vases, jars and stands to borrow, by arrangement

Every wedding is quoted individually. Tell us your budget and we will design to it.

Book a consultation

Send us a few details and we will get back to you to arrange a time to talk.

A few lines is plenty. We will ask for the rest when we talk.

About the shop

A small shop with big buckets

Petal & Stem is a small, independent flower shop: two florists, one workbench and a great many buckets. We buy what looks best that week, look after it properly and tie every bouquet by hand, so what leaves the shop is what we would want to receive.

If you are not sure what to choose, ask. Whether it is a first-date bunch, a difficult apology or a funeral, we would rather talk it through with you than sell you the wrong thing.

  • Tied by hand to order, never in advance
  • Wrapped in paper and ribbon, not plastic
  • Seasonal stems, with honest swaps when something is out
