2022 - What a Year!
So many weddings, events, workshops and hundreds of bouquets leaving my studio. It’s been an amazing year, and worth all the hard work. Thank you to all my amazing clients, current and new who have kept my little business going. You know how passionate I am about flowers, and I get to do the job I love.
With a heavy heart, for personal reasons, I will not be taking any new weddings for 23/24 onwards. This wasn’t a decision taken lightly but I have to do what’s best for me and my family. I will continue with bouquets, small events, funerals, sympathy and of course the workshops. Nicky xx
2021 - THINGS ARE STARTING TO LOOK BRIGHTER
Spring is almost here. More and more people are having their jabs and hopefully in a few months time we will all be able to see each other outside and in. Weddings are going to start again soon, which I’m so excited about. They are my passion and I have missed them so much.
If you are planning your wedding later this year or in 2022 or 2023, why not get in touch. Don’t leave it too late for 2022, it’s going to be a busy year.
Mother’s Day is looming, and my order book is filling up really quickly. Do place your orders to avoid disappointment. Free local delivery.

2020 - What a Year!
Where did this year go? My last big wedding was in February, lockdown was manic and the workshops are in demand! It’s been the strangest year. My heart goes out to the entire wedding industry with so many people not working. I am so grateful that I have managed to stay afloat. All my large weddings have moved to next year, including my wedding in Australia, but I’m still doing last minute weddings if I can, bouquets,. funerals, workshops and anything flowery!
I just wanted to give you the dates for upcoming Christmas Workshops, as I’ve had so much interest already, and hopefully they will be able to go ahead.

Flowers are Blooming!
I just want to thank everyone who has supported me through the lockdown! I have been so busy, and it’s been a joy to turn up on people’s door steps and making them smile! My garden is abundant with my home grown cut flowers, and the wholesalers are nearly back to normal. Sadly most of my weddings have moved to next year, but none have cancelled completely which is great news. I have loved been able to work and thank you for supporting your local florist! Nicky
RE-OPENING BEHIND CLOSED DOORS!!!
AS OF TODAY, TUESDAY 28TH APRIL, I AM NOW HAVING FLOWERS DELIVERED FROM MY WHOLESALER, AND WILL BE OPEN BEHIND CLOSED DOORS FOR LOCAL DELIVERY AND COLLECTION FROM MY GATE. ALL WITH NO CONTACT OBVIOUSLY. CALL ME WITH ANY PRE ORDERS AND PLEASE ALLOW A FEW DAYS TO ENSURE I HAVE FLOWERS IN STOCK.
The months have flown by, and we are in such weird times!
Apologies for the absence on my website. Everything seems to be on Instagram and Facebook these days. I have had the most amazing year with so many weddings, lots of amazing workshops, private one to one’s and hundreds of beautiful bouquets delivered all over the county. Now we are in lock down. I have been shut for 5 weeks which has been so sad. Most of this year’s weddings have now moved to next year. It’s devastating, but it does mean that next year will be even busier.
There Goes Summer!
Summer has flown by! I’ve been super busy with weddings, and here’s just a selection for you to see. I even hosted a wedding here in my garden, which was amazing! With the leaves starting to fall, I’m already taking bookings for next year’s weddings and planning Christmas workshops. Nicky
Wedding Season is almost here!
I’m not sure where this year has gone, but welcome to May. It’s been a busy time here at Forever Green, and now we are gearing up for the wedding season. I have been running workshops in the studio and at Returned to Glory, which helps fund the Hospice. I can’t wait to get started on my weddings and the first will be at Caswell House, which is near Brize Norton. A stunning location! Bookings for next year are filling up fast, I think 2020 is a popular date! Do call if you would like a free consultation.
Happy New Year everyone!
Wow, what a year it has been. I have an amazing new studio, I have created flowers for many, many weddings, met some amazing brides, held summer and winter workshops, entered the Chelsea Flower Show heats twice, opened my garden for charity, been featured in the Berko Loop, made nearly 100 wreaths and bouquets, hosted workshops all over the county and also hosted workshops for the Hospice of St. Francis. On top of that I have looked after two Hearing Dogs which have both qualified and gone off to their recipients. Flowers are my passion and if I’m not busy in the studio, I can be found in the garden growing my own cut flowers for my weddings.
This year already is very busy with wedding slots filling up fast. Do book an appointment if you are planning your wedding. A little taste of 2018.
Zoe & James - Summer on the Farm
A huge congratulations to Zoe and James on their wedding at Redbourn Church and afterwards at home on the farm. The hottest day, but such a fantastic wedding. So many elements but loved every minute of it!
Summer News!
Apologies for the silence. I have missed writing my blog, but life seems to be all hash tags and photos, with no writing involved! It's been a long hot summer so far, with plenty of weddings, workshops, and lots of flower orders, using the amazing new studio to it's full potential. New workshop dates are now available, and the workshops we have done so far, have been a huge success. Everyone loves being in the studio including my hearing dog in training, Ash. There are a few places left on the workshops going forward, so book early to avoid disappointment. Dates for weddings for 2019 are filling up very quickly, so do come and see me if you are planning your wedding to avoid disappointment.
THE OFFICIAL OPENING!
Thank you to everyone who came to the lunchtime or evening session of the opening. It was a huge success and worth all the hard work. Everyone was blown away and I'm just loving working in a clean and warmer environment. A huge thank you to Mark Weston Builders who did an amazing job. My workshops are now booked in, so do please book early to avoid disappointment.
THE NEW STUDIO IS HERE!
Drum Roll please! I was going to wait until everything was in it's place, but I'm so excited that I want to share my new studio! It's been a long time coming and so worth the wait. The dream has become a reality.
If you are passing please do pop in. I will now be open on Friday's selling flowers and pre-orders, as well as selling vases, containers and bits and pieces. I have a kettle and am happy to show you around my garden. I will be having a Grand Opening, watch this space for the date!
PRETTY AS A PICTURE!
Congratulations to Jamie and Sumit on their Wedding at Ashridge
A huge congratulations to Jamie and Sumit who were married at Ashridge House on Saturday. I loved working with these two, such a relaxed wedding! Beautiful vibrant spring flowers with an elegant staircase of peonies, ammi, clematis, roses, larkspur. A gorgeous head dress for Jamie's sister and each buttonhole was different to the last.
Wedding Season has started early this year!
Sorry for the lack of news! Life at Forever Green has been hectic. 3 weddings already this year, and big news in that my workspace is being converted into a very smart studio as we speak. The floor, ceilings and lights are in, just waiting on the new doors and for the decorating to be completed. I will be having an open day/evening with drinks and nibbles for you all to come and visit and workshop dates will be announced very soon.
HAPPY NEW YEAR
Apologies for the lack of posts. It has been a busy few months and here are some photos of what I have done since November. My wreaths were popular as ever, and I had the honour of decorating the stage at the Royal Albert Hall in December for a charity concert and also flowers for HRH Duke of Kent in the Royal Box!
The wedding season is already under way, and I have been asked to attend the Luxury Wedding Fair at Ashridge House on Sunday 25th February. If you are planning your wedding and not sure about flowers, why not pop along and come and have a chat on my stand. I will be making designs all day. I am also delighted to tell you that I have been training a Hearing dog for the Deaf, and he passed his final exam last week, so is now a fully qualified hearing dog and off to work very soon. I will miss Enzo very much, but delighted that he will be helping someone who needs him! More news to follow.
HANNAH & TOM - THE KINGS CHAPEL, OLD AMERSHAM
Hannah and Tom were married in Old Amersham Church with the reception held at The Kings Chapel. A beautiful venue. An amazing couple with a wonderful family. A year of planning, but it was well worth all the work. It is very special when the client becomes a friend!
AMY AND JON'S WEDDING, LITTLE GADDESDEN CHURCH AND NETTLEDEN LODGE
A huge congratulations to Amy and Jon on their amazing wedding. They are both so creative and came up with the most amazing ideas! I just loved working with you both! Jon designed and built the swings. The clear sides of the marquee merged the stunning gardens of Nettleden Lodge with the décor. An amazing wedding and just loved using Café au Lait dahlias and Peonies.
