Hello again! Welcome to the I'll bring You Flowers podcast with me your host, Sophie Cullumbine!

This week, I'm joined by the fantabulous, the amazing, the astounding, Dan Clarkson!

Playwright, actor, producer and general puppeteering mastermind, Dan has been a dear friend of mine for 25 years!

We talk about many things, including his incredible play, Potted Potter, an internationally recognised Harry Potter parody with a residency currently in Vegas!

He's been hailed as the caffeinated Robin Williams amongst other titles, written some incredible shows and done some great things, all of which you'll hear in this very chaotic episode of the podcast.

We even, sort of, delve into my favourite flowers and the infamous story of the time I met Gene Simmons of Kiss many years ago...

If you've enjoyed this episode, please subscribe to the show and leave me a lovely little five star review.

Hello and welcome back to the I'll Bring You Flowers podcast with me, Sophie Cullumbine!

Sorry it's been a while! I've had a lot going on personally as you'll hear in this episode but I'm back, and ready to hit the ground running!

This week I'm joined by Louis and Laura, my partners in crime!

We talk about our predictions for trends in 2026 for weddings and events, the horrifically wet winter we've had and how that's affected British growers, my latest flower subscription packages and a whole load of other bits in between!

Laura gives us an insight into what she's been growing, how the wet weather has had an impact on what she can grow and she answers some burning questions that I've always wanted the answers to!

Louis also dives into his LTP business, from planning to fashion and he's come a long way since his days as my Saturday boy! Super proud of him and what he has achieved and it's always a pleasure working with him.

Hello and welcome to the I'll Bring You Flowers podcast with me your host, Sophie Cullumbine!

This is a rerelease of my very first episode as I'm currently super busy planning and recorded episodes for season 3!

I thought this would be a great way to get some older episodes front and centre in front of the new listeners!

So, on this episode I'm joined by the lovely Alex Lucas, street artist who has been dubbed the 'female Banksy'. 

We talk what flowers mean, painting up scaffolding, and how she found her life long love of street art.

If you've enjoyed this first episode, please subscribe to the podcast and leave us a nice little review, thank you so much!

Yours florally,

Sophie.

Hello and welcome to I'll Bring You Flowers with me your host, Sophie Cullumbine!

This week I'm joined by the absolutely wonderful Louis Trenam, a.k.a Louis The Planner!

Louis used to spend his time popping into the shop all those years ago with £5 to buy some flowers for his mum, that turned into him asking for a Saturday job which then turned into him going to uni which then turned into him working for Nike in Amsterdam which then turned into him missing events so much that he went out on his own! And breathe...

In this episode of the pod, we talk about the career he's had, the importance of being authentic and so much more!

Our relationship spans over 13 years so get ready for a whirlwind of a conversation!

Hello and welcome to the I'll Bring You Flowers podcast with me your host, Sophie Cullumbine!

It's that time again folks, I'm joined by the woman herself, the legend, the fabulous, Laura from Hayloft Events!

This week we're talking everything floral trends...

When I first started out we were on the backend of the fish bowl and grass trend, we were even being trained to use foam in abundance...how things have changed!

We've seen countless trends come and go, minimalism, monochromatic, rustic styles, you name it - we've seen it.

It's also interesting how important royal weddings are to our industry, they show a real insight into what we may expect trend wise going forward...

Oh, and to round off the conversation we answer a VERY important question...listen to find out!

Hello there!

Thank you for tuning into my podcast, 'I'll Bring You Flowers' with me, your host, Sophie Cullumbine.

This week, it's another episode of ASS (Ask Sophie Something) so once again, I'm joined by the spectacular Laura of Hayloft Events.

This week, we answer some of our listener's questions including some sensible ones like, "What's the best business advice you've ever had" and some more...questionable ones like "Have you ever been sick in the back of your van?"...

We also delve into some flower set-up mishaps, the time I got stuck in my van surrounded with broken glass and this one time my dog ate an entire chilli.
