The last month has been a bit of blur to be honest and I am just finding my feet again. I have lots of fabulous photos to share, from classic white and green weddings to a truly tropical affair created for a bride who lives in Singapore and wanted lots of colour.
Ive been at Penshurst Place, Preston Court, Whitstable, Winters Barn, Chiddingstone Castle, Wadhurst Castle, several marquees, The Great Barn, Cooling Castle, Mountains....and I am sure there are others! I want to take this opportunity to thank the fantastic ladies who work alongside me, sharing my vision and bringing the dreams to reality and a calming influence in busy times! Together we notch up around 40 years of experience (not that we are old of course) and the flowers have been superb as my brides testify. Im looking forward to catching my breath soon and having some time to try new things and want to learn how to felt. Have visions of felted cushions adorning my battered chesterfield....and experimenting with some high impact suspended installations in time for Christmas...

About Darling & Wild
- Darling & Wild
- Tunbridge Wells, Kent, United Kingdom
- Darling & Wild came about because of my consuming passion for flowers and a love of colour and design. These elements coupled with my desire to be a bit different and wanting something more than ordinary that I couldnt find on the High Street led me to start my own business. I enjoy creative freedom and work with some lovely clients who all appreciate and indeed seek my advice and trust my judgement. To me there is no such thing as say - a pink rose there are many shades and when used in combinations their colour can assume a different hue based on what it is surrounded by. Fair to say I agonise over my flower selections and choose every one myself. I love using textures as well as colour to create interest - pods, berries, branches, moss, succulents - playing around wiith it all and being inspired. Where possible I use english flowers and am growing some too. Event and wedding specialist across the South East. In my spare time I get my hands dirty in my garden, walk the dog and raise two children!
