Cactus Wedding!

We had the most wonderful cactus-themed wedding, and Chloë was a vital part of making it all look so amazing! Everything was beautiful, from the bouquets to the colourful button holes, to the stunning arch decoration for our ceremony, to the adorable little cacti and moss on our tables. We've now got an extra 33 little prickly friends at home that are decorating our window ledge in our front room!

Everything was exactly as we'd dreamed of and we were so happy. We would absolutely recommend The Copper Cacti!

Incredible and unique

Chloe is amazing. I met her at a market she was working at and asked about wedding flowers. When we started emailing she was super responsive, listened to all my ideas and added some suggestions. When we met in person she was so warm and welcoming, made us feel so secure, everything you needed when arranging your big day. When it came to the day everything was just perfect, and more then I could ever expect. Thank you so much Chloe!

Utterly Fantastic, above and beyond

I'm am so happy to have found Chloe; what a wonderful person and a talented, passionate florist.

Chloe was brilliant with communication throughout and supported us to bring together our vision for our wedding day. It was so apparent when talking through the possibilities how passionate Chloe is about what she does, and she was a reassuring presence in the lead up.

We wanted to lean into the woodland vibes of our venue, so ferns were a must, and we were excited by Chloe's suggestion of moss for the table decor and delicate white florals. I was so in love with my daughter's floral crown, I've opted to press this as a keepsake along with my bouquet!!

I have to add how Chloe certainly went above and beyond what you'd expect from a supplier; from the sweet complimentary additions, such as making a "throwing bouquet", to travelling up to Norfolk and staying longer (on her birthday!) to help us move the potted ferns from the ceremony area to our reception barn. With the added bonus of being able to keep the potted ferns for our garden back home.

We truly are so thankful to you Chloe. I certainly would recommend you to anyone looking for a florist, and not necessarily just succulents as you were so versatile.

Sustainable, affordable, and Chloe is fantastic. Would really recommend

When I first contacted Chloe about doing the floristry for our wedding, this was not her main business back in the beginning of 2023, but I already knew I loved her style and that the few previous weddings she had worked with had been amazing! Chloe was great in all aspects, she was really accomodating and helpful, contantly on hand, put me at ease, and was brilliant at taking a pretty vague concept from me (purple succulents, and mini pineapples, and colour!) and running with it in her own way. I absolutely loved what she came up with on the day, and couldn't have had anything better. Loved loved loved my bouquet, table display, and terrariums!!! I also loved that barely anything got wasted afterwards, as we could give the terraniums away as gifts, and I have the succulents from my bouquet now growing in my garden! 💚🪴🌵🌷💐
