Event flowers · Ipswich & Suffolk

A sense
of occasion.

Flowers that set the mood, draw the eye and give a gathering its own character.

For private celebrations, dinners, corporate occasions and launches, Michael Pooley designs flowers around the setting and the people who will be there. A sculptural arrangement, a beautifully considered table or flowers throughout a house: each commission has its own starting point.

01 / Private celebrations

A table to gather around.
A room to remember.

Dinner parties, birthdays and house celebrations call for flowers that feel at home in their surroundings. Colour, scent, scale and the space between arrangements are considered together, leaving room for conversation and the pleasure of being there.
