“Absolutely beautiful” – what people say about my wedding flowers

Testimonials – wedding flowers

We just wanted to send a heartfelt thank you for the beautiful bouquets and buttonholes you created for our wedding – they were absolutely perfect. The colour scheme you chose was spot on and captured exactly what we had in mind – the perfect balance of English romance. It’s so clear to see how talented you are, and your work added such a lovely touch to the day. We’ve had so many compliments on the flowers, and they looked amazing in person and in photos.

Our flowers were gorgeous thank you so much ❤️

Lily w. budget wedding flowers package, birmingham. may 2024

Carole is absolutely amazing! For our wedding we ordered one of the budget packages with a few extra add ons. I was a little nervous about not seeing the flowers or knowing the exact arrangement until a few days before the wedding but I was honestly blown away by how perfect they were. From just a few inspiration pictures and a conversation Carole managed to perfectly replicate the idea of what I wanted and the bridal and bridesmaid bouquets were absolutely beautiful. I am so so glad I chose Tuckshop flowers and highly recommend.

I cannot begin to thank you enough for the flowers! I couldn’t believe how beautiful they were. It was so lovely to be surprised at the ceremony and then the reception with how wonderful they were. I loved how varied the different arrangements were but they fit together so beautifully. I would also like to thank you for all of your help leading up to the wedding and for being so amenable.

Carole did the flowers for our wedding and they were absolutely beautiful. We had clusters of glasses with stems on the tables and a full arrangement for the top table, including two milk churns for the church/reception and bouquets, buttonholes and corsages. The arrangements were stunning and made the decor for our wedding, everyone was commenting on them. Carole was also very easy to work with and professional. We’d wholeheartedly recommend.

I just would like to say thank you very much for your help. The flowers for the cake were beautiful and helped make my cakes look more like a wedding cake!! We got lots of compliments about the cake decoration – thanks to your handiwork!! Thank you very much again.

We absolutely loved the flowers. I was a little worried I hadn’t communicated my revised vision well enough but you completely got it and smashed my expectations so thank you. People made so many wonderful comments about the unique brightness of the pastel shades and they really matched the wonderful weather and fun spirit of the day. Thanks again for being a part of our day, you have been a dream to work with.

Rachael T. and Elliot W., bespoke wedding flowers for shustoke barns, warwickshire, may 2023

So, I already knew how fabulous the lovely Carole is as I recommend her to so many couples at Alcott who rave on about her, but now I can speak from a bride and grooms perspective!  The flowers for the tables were so stunning and not in the way for conversation which is important. She saved us money by saying use the churns at the church and have someone take then to the venue after. I sent her material of the bridesmaids dresses which she used to make the flower girls bracelets which were stunning!  The bouquets were incredible and are currently drying out so we get to keep them forever! 

I will continue to recommend this talented lady for lots of years ahead!!

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all of the flowers at our wedding last week. They were all so so amazing and had so many comments on how beautiful they were and how well they went with our theme. Also I really appreciate you sorting out those few buttonholes for me last minute, literally a life saver! Thanks so much! Will be recommending you to anyone I can!

Thank you so, so much for all of your work doing the flowers for yesterday.  The table flowers were just right – and at the end of the night I discovered how you had done the internal structure! The flower wall was totally gorgeous and it added a good wedding-y feel to the bar area, where we had various help-yourself drinks stations set up.  My bouquet smelled so good, it was lovely to have it all morning while getting ready and then I kept making the guests sniff it when they came over to ask about the flowers. I have taught a lot of people the word ranunculus, haha!

Thank you so much for the stunning flowers at our wedding. All the details, amazing scent and seasonal favourites you used will be so memorable in the years to come. I loved my bouquet so much I had it sit on my bedside in a champagne bucket for a few days on our honeymoon! Thank you for everything.

Greg and Maisie F. Bespoke wedding flowers for the bridal barn, shropshire, march 2022

We just want to say thank you so much for the beautiful flowers you arranged for our wedding. We had so many compliments on the day, and they were exactly what we wanted and more! The arch in particular was a feat of engineering. Thank you also for the all the advice you gave us over the last few months and for your flexibility and patience when we had to move our date twice (due to Covid-19). You really put us (and our parents) at ease and gave us every confidence that you’d do a great job, which we were so grateful for in the heat of wedding planning.

patrick B. and India m., august 2021, bespoke wedding flowers for edgbaston old church and edgbaston park hotel, birmingham.

 I just wanted to say again how much I loved the flowers and how I really noticed how you’d taken my feedback on board too. Also – WOW – HOW INCREDIBLE WAS THE TOP TABLE! I’ve learnt how much you get from trusting your creative flair!!

Sam PE, august 2021, bespoke wedding flowers for hampton manor, warwickshire

You did such an amazing job Carole! You made our day so beautiful, everyone absolutely loved all of the flowers, particularly the incredible top table! Thank you so much.

Becky A. august 2021. Bespoke wedding flowers for curradine barns, worcestershire.

Thank you so so much for the most beautiful flowers we’ve ever seen! Literally everyone at the wedding commented on how amazing they were! If you have any tips on how to preserve or keep them lasting as long as possible that would be wonderful! I don’t want them to die!!   We had the most perfect day, just want to do it all over again!  

Holly m. July 2021, bespoke wedding flowers for curradine barns, worcestershire.

 Just wanted to send this to say how much I loved the flowers for our wedding! They were perfect and went so well with our colour scheme. They turned out better than I could have imagined and the buckets were used to make our centerpieces which everyone thought looked great. They just look stunning and I couldn’t have been happier with them. They even filled the house long after the wedding! 

Yvonne T. june 2021, Wedding flowers package customer.

Thank you so SO much for being able to provide us with such gorgeous seasonal flowers for our wedding. They were much admired, and the book is just spectacular – and of course so appropriate!

Ruth and Darren, Old Library Wedding, Digbeth, Birmingham, January 2020

I just wanted to say not only was E’s bouquet (and little G’s) completely stunning and absolutely exactly what she wanted – all the flowers were perfect – Carole thank you so much. You made her a very happy Bride.

J E. via instagram. Hampton Manor wedding, Warwickshire, November 2019.

We want to say a huge thank you for doing our wedding flowers. Our flowers were amazing! The bright colours were perfect and just what I wanted (even though I didn’t quite know what I wanted – you clearly did!) We had so many compliments from our guests – the milk churns were a big hit! Even the staff at the venue were saying how nice it was to see some bright colours injected. The bouquets and button holes were also so pretty!

Thank you so much again

Anna and Frankie, Mythe Barn Wedding, Warwickshire, September 2019.

Thank you Carole for the most beautiful flowers. They were stunning and helped everything visually come together. Professional photos to follow and don’t be surprised to see me at one of your workshops, I’d love to learn some of your magic!

Clara C. via Instagram, Avoncroft Museum Wedding, Worcestershire, September 2019.

Hello Carole – We just wanted to say how beautiful our wedding flowers were – honestly you made every single arrangement absolutely beautiful.  Everyone commented how beautiful they were – you truly made our wedding look stunning and we are so thrilled we found you.

You got everything spot on with colours, type of flowers and the look we were after. Thank you so so much. 

I cannot thank you enough and I will always look at my photos with so much happiness. Thank you. 

Clare and Neil H., September 2019. Shustoke Farm Barns wedding, Warwickshire.

Thanks again for the beautiful flowers you did for Ellie and Alex’s wedding. They were so gorgeous …..and continue to be enjoyed in my lounge (and I did give a lot away to family and friends too). You captured so well the look, feel and palette that Ellie was looking for. She was thrilled with them- we all were! So appreciated all your hard work and creativity and will be recommending you whenever I can!

Debbie S., August 2019, Gorcott Hall wedding, Worcestershire.

Carole is a florist with a truly unique style, her flower arrangements were absolutely gorgeous on our wedding day and received so many compliments from our guests. Her enthusiasm, creativity and attention to detail made everything so easy for us. She took so much time to meticulously plan all of our wedding flowers, and she made the best out of all our flowers, transporting them between the church and our reception venue and reusing posies lining the aisle for part of the centre pieces on the tables. Carole also worked closely with our venue, meaning that it looked its absolute best on the wedding day. I can’t recommend her enough!

Emily R. July 2019 via Facebook, Deer Park Hall wedding, Worcestershire.

Perfect wildflower style 
Carole did the flowers for our wedding and we couldn’t have been happier. I chose her because of her relaxed, natural style and so, although we had a brief chat about colours, we let her just do her thing and were absolutely thrilled with the results. All of the bouquets were just gorgeous and my husband loved his quirky buttonhole that Carole had designed to reflect his love of cooking. But the real wow factor was the ceremony room – she managed to create so much impact and beauty with her flowers and birch arch. One of the best decisions we made! Carole is so personable and very easy to talk to and this made planning our wedding flowers such a pleasure. Thank you again!

Thank you so much!! The flowers looked amazing. You made it perfect for us x

Hayley and Scott P., September 2018. Alcott Weddings, Worcestershire.

I’ve just realised I haven’t yet thanked you properly for the flowers at our wedding.  We had so many compliments on the beautiful flowers you provided; they were perfect, and just what we wanted.  Thank you for putting up with our late additions and in particular for Rosie’s flower crown, which was gorgeous.  I am so grateful that you were able to take our very vague requirements and produce such beautiful arrangements.

Gemma, Bespoke Wedding, Berrow Court, Birmingham, August 2018.

Wow thank you so much for the beautiful flowers! I am so pleased with them.

Krupa T, Wedding Package, Birmingham, August 2018

Thank you SO much for arranging such beautiful flowers for our wedding.  You were a dream to work with and all of the flowers were just so stunning.  I loved my bouquet so much!  The flower arranging for the marquee was one of our favourite memories in the run up to the wedding, and of course my mum’s reactions when all the flowers arrived.  They completely transformed the look of the venues and our outfits.  We loved them so much, we dried them and kept them!

Luke and Claire, Bespoke Wedding, Edgbaston, Birmingham. July 2018.

It was just the most fantastic day, and everybody was talking about the flowers – they really made the venue that something special. Thank you so much.

Rebecca and Jack, Fazeley Studios bespoke wedding, Birmingham. June 2018.

Hi Carole – I really don’t know where to begin, we can’t thank you enough for our flowers on Thursday, they were absolutely beautiful. So many people came up to me and the bridesmaids complimenting them and asking where they were from. You were amazing on the day, the tables and everything just looked incredible! Again we can’t thank you enough!!!

Laura and Mike, The Tythe Barn, Priston Mill, Somerset wedding September 2017.

Thank you for everything, the flowers were amazing, we had so many compliments on them! Xx

Laura and Carl, Dunsley Hall Hotel wedding, Staffordshire, July 2017.

I cannot recommend Tuckshop Flowers highly enough. I was looking for a natural, woodland feel for our wedding with an autumnal/
orange colour scheme. Aside from that, I had no clue! Carole talked me through lots of different options and helped me narrow down ideas for the day. The lovely little touches such as feathers in the bouquet and hiking boot displays were bang on what we were looking for without even knowing it! It was so unique, natural and personal to us – so many people commented on our flower arrangements during the day! Thank you, Carole!

Lara, Shustoke Barns wedding, Warwickshire, June 2017.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for our wonderful wedding flowers. They were absolutely beautiful and even better than I had imagined and hoped for.  We had so many comments from our wedding guests about how fantastic they were. The flowers were a very important part of the wedding for me and you did such a fantastic job. I really can’t thank you enough and would certainly recommend Tuckshop Flowers to any of my friends and family in future. Thanks again and very best wishes.

Emily, Sherbourne Park wedding, Warwickshire, May 2017

A great big THANK YOU for the stunning bouquets, buttonholes and tablepieces you made for our wedding at Gorcott Hall.  All of our succulents were beautiful and worked so well. We had lots of comments on how gorgeous they were, not to mention how unique.  We will make sure we send you photos as soon as we get them through.  Thanks so much once again.

Alison and James F. Gorcott Hall wedding, Worcestershire, November 2016.
 

Thank you so much for the beautiful flowers you provided for our wedding in October. We really wanted to use seasonal flowers grown locally, and are so glad we found you! You were incredibly helpful, friendly and professional throughout the whole process, and a joy to work with! All of the bouquets, corsages, buttonholes and arrangements you created were better than we could have ever hoped for, and the additional DIY bucket of flowers really was fantastic value for money. The flowers fitted our relaxed wedding perfectly, and your creations received numerous compliments from our guests on the day. We cannot recommend you highly enough- thank you!

Hello lovely Carole, Thank you so much for everything you did for us, the flowers were absolutely perfect and everyone commented on how beautiful and colourful they were, which is exactly what we were after (the colourfulness, not the comments, although they were nice too!).  Can’t wait to see what you think of the piccies!

Fozia and Tom, September 2016, Birmingham Botanical Gardens wedding.

Thank you so much for the magnificent flower arrangement in Kidderminster Town Hall, the beautiful bouquets and buttonholes & the very pretty jam jar flowers. My youngest daughter divided the town hall flowers and brought some of the display back to our kitchen.  The flowers are still looking wonderful. The jam jar flowers also looked wonderful in the three very different locations and the guests really appreciated taking them home.

Angela, September 2016.  Kidderminster Town Hall and Severn Valley Railway wedding, Worcestershire.

I just wanted to say a big thank you for your beautiful wedding flowers.  I know I wasn’t there to receive them when you delivered as I was held up at the venue, but couldn’t believe how lovely they were when I got back!  Especially Bryn’s buttonhole with the little guitar on – it was a great touch!  Thanks again Carole.

Natalie, April 2016. Avoncroft Museum wedding, Worcestershire.

Thanks so much for doing an amazing job of our wedding flowers!  The dressed hearts in particular I just loved so much – I still have them around the house!  Everything was absolutely fantastic and exactly what I wanted. The bouquets and buttonholes were beautiful.  We had so much fun, even though it chucked it down just at the wrong moments!

Vicky, April 2016. Avoncroft Museum wedding, Worcestershire.

I must say, I have photographed a lot of weddings and seen a lot of wedding flowers.  But I was extremely impressed with the flowers at Janet and Mike’s wedding, they were absolutely stunning.
