When it comes to floral quotes, transparency and understanding are key. This aspect of my business is deeply personal to me because it's not just about the flowers or the numbers, it's about ensuring you feel confident and informed when making decisions for your events. Breaking down the complexities of floral pricing brings a sense of trust and clarity to your relationship with your vendor, and allows you to create unforgettable moments together. I hope that this conversation helps you navigate this process with a bit more ease and confidence, so that you can put the trust in your team and focus on the joy of your event.

When someone passes away, emotions run deep. Unlike other events, funerals involve a strong desire to honour the person authentically rather than focusing primarily on aesthetics. This makes custom funeral design a deeply personal aspect of my business as it brings a closeness and intimacy with my clients that is unmatched. Being trusted with this responsibility is a profound honour for my team and I. We understand it’s about creating lasting memories of our clients’ final moments with their loved one.

What I cover in this episode:

• How my personal experiences with loss, alongside my partner's insights from working in palliative care, shaped my approach to funeral design.
• Professional funeral training that transformed my understanding of death, highlighting the significance of personalisation and meaningful rituals.
• Examples of how I integrate personal details, passions, and memories into bespoke funeral floral designs.
• Reflections on the importance of legacy and how my work inspires thoughts on how we're remembered.

This week we're going to be taking a step back from the flowers and going deeper on design. We’ll be diving into designing with intention - what it means, why we love this approach, how I go about it and some examples. You might be thinking “what does that have to do with me exactly, you’re the designer?” but I believe that there are certain responsibilities that the client has to make this possible, and this same approach should be used throughout your entire event, to truly create something that captures your heart and speaks to your soul. This conversation is truly going to change your perspective on consciously designing your next event.

This episode is a fun one because I’m giving you my top three hacks for finding inspiration. When it comes to a new event, I love nothing more than a client who comes to me feeling excited and inspired about what we're going to create together. Now I will not be telling you to mindlessly scroll through Instagram or Pinterest - whilst I think there is a time and place for that - it will only get you so far in your planning process. Let’s dig deeper into the why behind particular things that inspire you and your creative mind.
