Meet Alison of Essex wedding florist Alison White Wedding Flowers

Tell us about your Essex wedding florist...
I offer a friendly, personal and bespoke wedding flower service - a personal touch with attention to detail. I started my business four years ago after years of doing wedding and event flowers for free as a hobby. 

What's your favourite type of wedding?
My favourite weddings are themed weddings, where the flowers will enhance or even create the whole mood. There is nothing I won't try, I particularly love making bespoke statement pieces, floral trees, hoops, giant balls, arches etc.

What's your top tip for Essex wedding couples?
My top tip is do your homework. Find out how much things will cost and be clear with how much you want to spend on each part of your wedding. I love small wedding orders as much as the large ones (sometimes more) but can be most helpful and creative when I know what the budget is and what the couple want.

What's the most common question couples ask you?
What should we do with the flowers after the wedding? If you have lots then gift them to wedding guests to take home and enjoy.

How have you handled coronavirus as a business? 
I have re-booked nearly all my couples with no fee or extra charges, simple date shift. The only couple I couldn't accommodate I secured another fabulous florist for them who also agreed to take it on with no additional cost to the couple.
