Wedding flowers · Ipswich & Suffolk

Entirely
your own.

Flowers with character. A beautiful silhouette, an unexpected colour, a detail that feels unmistakably yours.

Michael Pooley creates bespoke wedding flowers from his Ipswich studio, working across Suffolk and further afield by arrangement. From a single bridal bouquet to flowers throughout a ceremony and reception, each commission begins with the people, the setting and the season.

01 / Flowers to carry & wear

The smallest detail.
The strongest impression.

A bouquet is considered in relation to the person carrying it: its scale, movement, colour and the way it sits against the clothes. From specialist wired work to loose seasonal flowers, the making is as important as the finished shape. Buttonholes and personal flowers receive the same care.

02 / Flowers for the setting

A room with
its own character.

Flowers can echo the architecture, soften a space or introduce a confident contrast. Ceremony arrangements, installations and table flowers are designed as part of the whole occasion, with attention to sightlines, scale and the way guests will use the room.
