Intimate weddings
Some celebrations are beautifully small in scale — a quiet ceremony, a private gathering with family, or an elegant dinner to mark the occasion. For these moments, I offer a dedicated floral service designed specifically for intimate weddings held outside of peak season.
This service is available for venues within approximately 1 hours’ travel from my studio (Dingle Skellig and Sheen Falls Lodge included). Keeping these weddings local allows me to give each couple the time and attention their day deserves, while maintaining the quality and care at the heart of my work.
Thoughtful Florals for Smaller Celebrations
Intimate weddings often call for a curated selection of key pieces rather than full-service styling. These designs are created to complement the scale of your day while reflecting the refined, natural aesthetic my couples come to me for.
Your flowers may include:
bridal bouquets
bridesmaids’ bouquets
buttonholes and corsages
a ceremony arrangement or focal design
table flowers for a small gathering or private dinner
Every piece is crafted with the same attention to detail, premium flowers and sustainable techniques used in my larger weddings. We cannot offer large installations such as Arches or Pedestal Urns with this service
I grow a selection of heirloom and seasonal flowers during the Irish growing season, including dahlias, cosmos, phlox, sweet peas and more delicate varieties that add depth, movement and texture to your arrangements.
These flowers are grown using eco-friendly methods in Co. Kerry and are used wherever possible throughout the season. The rest of your flowers are sourced from trusted Dutch suppliers who provide exceptional quality and consistency.
Sustainability is central to my practice, and I design without floral foam, using techniques that respect the natural world and enhance the longevity of your arrangements.
Our Flowers
How It Works
1. Discovery Call
We begin with a relaxed conversation to understand the style of your celebration, the elements that matter most to you and the flowers you are drawn to.
2. Tailored Floral Direction
I create a simple design outline reflecting your palette, the mood of your day and the key floral pieces that will enhance the ceremony or gathering.
3. Booking
Your date is secured with a retainer, and we confirm the essential florals you require.
4. Studio Preparation
Your flowers are sourced, conditioned and prepared with care — using both seasonal Irish-grown varieties and premium Dutch blooms.
5. Delivery
You have the choice between pick up from the Studio or Floral delivery. On the day, your flowers are delivered directly to your location, ensuring everything arrives fresh and ready for your celebration. Our Intimate Flower Service does not include set up, transfer or breakdown
Intimate weddings vary in size and floral requirements, but typically involve a set of essential, beautifully crafted pieces.
Pricing is based on the elements you choose, with minimums lower than full-service weddings due to the reduced scope and local radius.
You will receive a clear outline of costs after our discovery call so you can decide on the pieces that suit your celebration best.
