Four Of Our Favourite Florists At Cornish Tipi Weddings
When it comes to planning your wedding it’s all about the detail…and one of the most magical and important aspects is the flowers. If you're searching for wedding florists in Cornwall maybe something wild and natural to match the woodland vibe or something soft and romantic to set a dreamy scene, florists are artists who have the power to transform a space into something truly exceptional. We’re privileged at Cornish Tipi Weddings to work with some amazing Cornish florists who bring their own unique touch to our woodland wedding venue, each creating their own beautiful, bespoke arrangements that perfectly complement the natural surroundings.
So if you’re wondering which wedding florist in Cornwall to choose for your big day we’ve got you covered. Here are four of our favourite florists – each with their own flair and style, making them a perfect fit for the magic of our rustic outdoor and lakeside wedding venue.
1. The Woodland Atelier
If your dream wedding is all about the romance of the woods, The Woodland Atelier floral design studio is probably the choice for you. Inspired by nature’s own wild beauty, their arrangements look as though they’ve been plucked from beneath the forest canopy. Think lush greenery, soft foliage, and seasonal blooms that give a very just-gathered feel. The Woodland Atelier is design led, concentrating on creative whimsical design using fresh flowers and natural textures like seed heads, feathers or chilli plants for table centres.
What’s fantastic about working with The Woodland Atelier is the sense of depth and movement in their designs. From gorgeous hanging installations in our main marquee to wild bridal bouquets, Vick has a knack for creating arrangements that feel like they belong in the natural setting of our outdoor wedding venue. Imagine walking to your lakeside ceremony with a bouquet made from wildflowers and foliage that have been carefully curated to look like they’ve just been picked in a secret woodland glade. Or perhaps a jaw-dropping moongate framing your vows on the wooden jetty above the water. Or just maybe a fiery fiesta feel with hot reds and carnival colours even on the wedding cake. That’s the magic of The Woodland Atelier.
This style is perfect for couples who are all about showstopping, organic beauty and want flowers that look and feel in tune with the surrounding landscape. If you’re planning a boho or rustic wedding with oodles of natural beauty Vick will bring your wedding day vision to abundant floral life.
2. The Garden Gate Flower Company
If you’re planning a green wedding with both the planet and your own carbon footprint in mind then look no further than The Garden Gate Flower Company – specializing in sustainably grown British flowers right here in Cornwall on their own flower farm. Rebecca suggests couples throw away the colour rule book and go with the flow, engaging in seasonal bounty rather than a determination to have flowers & colours out of season. If you're after wedding flowers that are bursting with life, beautiful on the day and assuredly low impact then Garden Gate should be at the top of your list. So it’s goodbye to sad imported flowers and hello to vigorous, scented beauties straight from the flower farm to your venue.
Organic floral styling with these kind of flowers gives you a joyful vibrant look and means that blooms arranged for your wedding will lace the ceremony and reception spaces with their heady natural scent. When you walk into our big marquee for your wedding reception filled with their home-grown June roses the sweet scent fills the air and becomes a lasting memory of your wedding day for everybody there.
It doesn’t have to stop at stand alone displays or hoops & garlands – there’s always the option of flower crowns or fresh flowers for the bride’s & bridesmaids’ hair.
Whether you’re going for full-on festival vibe or a more traditional country garden look, Garden Gate is the florist that fits most perfectly into the overall ethos of our venue. Always in tune with the time of year, with blooms that reflect the best that nature has to offer whilst making a minimal impact on the environment, this is floral styling that feels like a celebration not just of your wedding but of the natural world itself.
3. Flowers from Bruallen
We all love Flowers from Bruallen, our closest wedding florist whose work is full of colour and creativity. This nearby village florist is something of a local institution and the go to place for flowers for all occasions. Elaine has a deep understanding of how flowers can set the tone for your entire wedding day. Whether you're after a bold and bright display to showcase your celebrations, or soft, romantic pastels that evoke a sense of gentle elegance, they’ll work with you to realize your plan and not max out on the budget.
Their aim is to create stunning arrangements that reflect your style as a couple. Whether it’s a vibrant, joyful theme with pops of colour or something more delicate and romantic with a softer palette, their stylists listen to your vision and bring it to life. The florals they create have a timeless feel, blending traditional English garden flowers with some imported blooms and a touch of modern flair.
At our outdoor wedding venue the Cornish countryside is the star, so Bruallen complement the natural environment with everything from cascades of natural flowers at the wedding pavilion, to striking flower arches at lakeside wedding ceremonies to country milk churns full of your favourite blossom.
The goal is designing florals that look like they belong, rather than just sitting on top of or dominating a space. Whether you choose their bridal bouquets & posies for flower girls, buttonholes for grooms and best men, table centres for dining or vintage pails full of flowers they always bring something special to the table.
4. Anna’s Flower Barn
For couples whose wedding flower inspo is of the relaxed, hedgerow tied with raffia vibe then look at Anna’s Flower Barn. Her website has handy style ideas to start your floral styling journey with titles like Rustic, Coastal or Blush Collection. Anna’s Flower Barn is located in an actual barn where brides can go to discuss their plans.
The barn itself is a working space that has an authentic and rustic feel, which is exactly what Anna brings to her florals. She works with both Cornish & Dutch suppliers and produces loose, countryside arrangements – think verdant hedgerow, or vintage simplicity whether simple and understated or as lavish as you wish.
What makes her such a fantastic choice for Cornish Tipi Weddings is Anna's strong connection with nature, animals and the countryside. Her approach to floral design is all about creating something that feels rooted in the environment. Her arrangements are elegant but not overly polished – there’s an effortless, down-to-earth quality to the flowers she creates.
If you love the idea of incorporating some fun and personal touches (eg a Lego superhero for the groom & buttonholes) she’ll take the time to get to know your personalities and thoughts. Ribbons, lace, dried flowers & twigs, asymmetrical arches or seamless moongates are all very much in her repertoire. In fact no detail too big or small! This is romantic work, full of charm and promise which captures the essence of the time and place of your start to married life.
