Wedding Florists in Stratford-upon-Avon

Shakespeare's birthplace is full of timber-framed buildings, riverside gardens and historic charm. Couples marry in town venues near the river Avon, or head into the Warwickshire countryside and the edge of the Cotswolds, where country houses, manor hotels and barns are popular.

A nod to the Bard

Some couples enjoy weaving Shakespearean flowers into their designs, such as roses, rosemary, pansies and honeysuckle, which all appear in his plays. Ask your florist whether these are available for your date, as some are seasonal.

Venue styles

Timber-framed interiors suit romantic, garden-style flowers in soft colour. Riverside venues suit natural designs with trailing foliage. Country houses can carry tall, formal arrangements, and barns look lovely with long table garlands and gathered seasonal blooms.

Through the year

Spring brings tulips, narcissi and blossom. Peonies and sweet peas follow, then English garden roses and delphiniums. Late summer and autumn suit dahlias, berries and turning foliage, and winter weddings can use evergreens and candlelight.

Practical points

Stratford is busy with visitors, particularly in summer, and town-centre traffic and parking can be challenging. Share venue access details with your florist early, and let guests know to book accommodation. Summer Saturdays fill quickly, so contact florists once your venue is booked.
