The Best Wedding Florist!

I had the most wonderful experience with The Bell Jar Flowers. Nikki went above and beyond for our wedding from the initial consultation to the wedding day.

Nikki is a very passionate, talented florist and a lovely person. She listened to us, gave us suggestions when we needed help, and communicated with us every step of the way. Before the wedding she sent a beautiful video with the timings, details, and floral mood board and a couple days before she sent some photos of my actual flowers! On the wedding day I was so overwhelmed when I saw the floral arrangements; they were beautiful and beyond my wildest dreams! The following morning she came back to put the wedding flowers into jars so I could gift them to family and friends. Nikki made the whole process so exciting and joyful. Thank you for being part of our special day.

If you need a wedding florist, I highly recommend The Bell Jar Flowers!

Absolutely wonderful from start to finish!

I really couldn’t recommend Nikki more highly. The flowers for our wedding were absolutely perfect and so beautiful! We had so many compliments. The communication was brilliant throughout and at no point did I ever have to worry which is a godsend around your wedding day. Nikki really went above and beyond, even remembering our original pre-Covid wedding date and sending us a little note to say she was thinking of us. Just so many lovely little touches. Nikki is truly a gem and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!

Hi!

My name is Nikki and I would love to help you with designing your wedding flowers. I provide a bespoke service which is tailored to each couple.

My style is natural, seasonal and sustainable using as many British flowers as I can without any floral foam.

If you like the wild beauty of the English hedgerows then my natural, romantic style may be for you.

Please get in touch and we can have a chat over a cup of coffee.
