Meet Our Floral Founder
Victoria Engelen
Victoria has lived in France for over 30 years and has fully immersed herself in the French way of life with her family.
When she’s not up to her knees in beautiful blooms, you’ll find Victoria exploring the French countryside with her loved ones, tending to her collection of darling pets. Victoria’s signature logo is of her late dog, Popeye, holding a beautiful David Austin rose (her father’s favourite), as a poignant nod to her love of animals.
After Victoria unexpectedly found herself in the wonderful world of flowers, she has realised her life’s purpose is to put her heart, soul and sincerity into creating meaningful floral designs for your wedding day.
And above all, Victoria adores how flowers have the ability to bring happiness to anyone…
“Victoria was incredible from start to finish. She was our support out in France throughout our entire process. If there was a need to discuss any areas or concerns of our day, she would prioritise her time to discuss these elements and to ensure all our needs and preferences were met.
If you’re looking for a talented and dedicated floral designer, stylist and wedding coordinator (!) there isn’t high enough praise for Vic. She did an amazing job with our wedding, orchestrating our day with precision and taking care of every detail imaginable whilst also creating stunning floral arrangements and décor that exceeded our expectations. Vic was a joy to work with, always responsive, and truly went above and beyond to make our day so special – we simply can’t thank her enough.”
“Everything was perfect and I felt so relaxed during the wedding planning! You are not only amazing at your job, but such a lovely person the day wouldn’t have been the same without you!
I’m usually a bit of a control freak but the Skype chats with you put me at ease and I felt I could completely trust you to put together all my ideas and the styling of the day. You also were not afraid to be honest and tell me if you didn’t think things would work so well and gave me lots of new ideas to think about... Nothing was too much trouble. I had so many ideas I wanted my day to look like. You made my dreams come true!”
“You completely understood my vision, and I trusted you fully to make me the most bespoke and unique wedding flowers. All of our guests, and everyone who has seen photos have commented on how special they were.
Where do I begin!
Firstly, thank you so much for making our day so special.
I cannot believe that it’s all over, however I know that I will find a way to work with you again! The pandemic really made us learn to appreciate the little things, and having made such a special bond with our suppliers over that (slightly longer than planned!) duration of time we really value each and every one of you. I felt so quickly that I was working with my friend, throwing ideas around, and bouncing photos and messages back and forth. I know that all of that is extra time and effort, but it really is appreciated. I’ve now got my forever flowers to keep reliving the most perfect day over and over again. We may not be hosting another wedding but we do hope to stay in touch and I will forever be recommending you!”
“There was such a high level of care and detail to everything Victoria did – I could not recommend her highly enough. Her advice and recommendation for all the styling was so appreciated and made such an impact on our day.
Victoria was amazing with all the prep on the lead up to our Big Day. Always contactable, knowledgeable and helpful on lots of different aspects of the styling and arrangements for the day. Victoria was great with the wedding planning and transport side of things too – couldn’t have done it without her assistance and inside knowledge! I was so happy with our flowers. Victoria really understood what I wanted and just did such a beautiful job. I loved my bouquet so much.”
