About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2024

Last update: December 2024

Florio is a Great Dunmow, Essex-based wedding flower company that provides a bespoke service with the aim of designing stunning and meaningful flower arrangements that reflect the love story of each wedding client. We use the language of flowers, called Floriography to carefully choose flowers based on their symbolism, ensuring they resonate with the couple.

This approach transforms the floral aspect of the event into a symbolic representation of the couple's love and story.

Our aim is to transcend flowers beyond mere venue decoration, and transform them into reflections of the couple's personalities and provide a visual storytelling of their love.

We really want couples to feel that wedding flowers are a worthwhile aspect of the wedding day and to provide the very best value that we can.

Services Offered

Gemma at Florio has the expertise to elevate your celebration and add a special charm to your wedding decor. She can create various floral arrangements, such as bouquets, floral installations, table centre arrangements and boutonnieres. Florio also offers a list of fresh blooms for your one-of-a-kind display. Our style is flowing and natural with a hint of modernity, we love a bright colour scheme but are just as much a fan of a muted blush style scheme also.

The booking process

The journey with us starts with the initial enquiry when clients tell us all about their hopes and dreams for the look and feel of the flowers for the day. Unlike a conventional florist, we really want to get to know our couples so that we are able to authentically weave their story into the designs we create, so we include questions that you may not normally see on an enquiry form to really get to know our couples.

From there we gather together ideas and imagery to present in a face to face consultation. We like to meet in person so we can get to know the couple in depth and hear their story (this can be online if required, but we much prefer to meet face to face so you can get a feel for if we are the right floral designer for you).

From the inspirations gathered within the meeting, we will work on the designs and select flowers that reflect the couples passions to tell their story and provide a quotation within 14 days. This may be longer than other quotations as there is a lot of thought and detail that goes into its creation.

The most beautiful flowers

We had the best experience using Gemma for our flowers! She delivered exactly what we wanted and for a great price too! Flowers were fresh and arranged perfectly for our bouquets, button holes, table decorations and flower crowns! Highly recommend!!

Best florist ever!

I have no words for how incredible Gemma was to work with.

She captured my vision perfectly and I loved how she explained the meaning behind the flowers and how they tied to my husband and I’s love story - it made the experience so personal.

The communication was brilliant, she was very proactive with ensuring the timings were all smooth on the day.

The flowers she delivered were incredible in every way, they perfectly matched the vision I had and I got so many compliments on them. I was particularly in love with the meadow display she produced.

Thank you Gemma for everything!
