Situated here in Kelfield is Bee Croft Blooms. Whether you are getting married and would like me to style your wedding, you would like a bouquet of flowers for your stay or you would like a floral workshop for you and your guests to enjoy, I am here to help.
I am an eco florist, all of my flowers are seasonal British blooms, no air miles and no plastic or floral foam.
If Dovecote Barns is your wedding venue I can provide bouquets, buttonholes and floral arrangements. Please get in touch for a floral consultation.
Wanting to treat yourself or a guest to some flowers during you stay please contact me for a beautiful bouquet of seasonal blooms.
Or if it’s entertainment you are looking for I can provide a floral workshop. Have you ever fancied making a flower crown, bouquet, jam jar arrangement or a wreath? Or maybe I could teach you to make your own wedding flowers.
Whatever your floral needs please get in touch.
