Wedding Flower Inspiration Zita Elze

Zitz Elze is a Richmond based florist whose work I love for its uniqueness and fresh approach. Never one to go for standard floral displays, last year there was an abundance of fruit,  this year with one of the larger displays at Summer Inspiration it was all beside the sea. What I really liked about this display was that it genuinely felt like it was inspired by a love of visits to the seaside with cute little starfish topped cupcakes by Zoe Clark Cakes, the use of natural woods and reclaimed metals and a subtle pinks, peaches and cream colour palette.

I’m a big fan of Gypsophilia / Baby’s Breath bouquets and this pink one above is especially lovely with with its little shells trailing form hanging organza ribbons.

Absolutely loved this escort card display with cute little bouquets sitting in paper cups tied to the metal stand.

Zita's tagline is 'Painting with flowers' well she is an artist indeed when it comes to her floral design.

Wedding Flower Inspiration Rebel Rebel

Rebel Rebel founded by Athena Duncan and Mairead Curtin are based in Broadway Market London E8 and as last year had a funky musical accompaniment at their display with a DJ playing from the  Wedding Smashers

Vintage is still a big trend in wedding design but usually comprises of a pastel colour palette, Rebel Rebel’s display with an eclectic mix of vintage china and vases was full of bright and colourful flowers from blousy coral peonies, hot pink sweet peas to vibrant blue cornflowers

Before I left the market I got to have one of the raspberry mini cupcakes you can just see in the photos, it was yummy I wish I’d found out who they were by, so if anyone else knows please share.

Wedding Flower Inspiration Flower Power

Welcome back to the rest of our New Covent Garden Summer Inspiration florist reports.

Flower Power is an East London based florist headed by designer Jay Ravi. They a had a lovely floral wall and a great wrought iron cake stand (I believe it’s available to hire) which had a combination of cakes and candles on the different branches that would make a great focal point at your reception.

Wedding Flower Inspiration Pollen Nation

Pollen Nation headed by florist Alison Trickey, an Olympian rower in her previous career, have two shops one in Shoreditch and the other in Heathfield, East Sussex.

Their display had a lovely vintage feel in neutral creams with pops of blue with some lovely pewter vases. I really liked the creative use of boxes to add height and as containers for displays too

Wedding Flower Inspiration Nichlas Vilsmark

Nichlas Vilsamark is a Danish florist who runs  Floral Symphonies in West London. As well as some lovely white flower arrangements and white doves in a beautifully decorated cage he had two stunning bouquets on show, the first below is this amazing ‘giant’ rose bouquet well, that’s what it looked like but on close inspection you could see it was lots of petals individually wired around a rose head.

This wired shower bouquet was just as stunning with a combination of white calla lilies, orchids and delicate hanging wired shells.
