As a Florist I often find it's really important to personally design things for your client.
Particularly when working on a wedding the client will often want something visual they can see.
Sometimes people ask for a mock up of the design, which you would then make for them. Obviously due to workmanship this is not always possible with any kind of shower bouquet, but works well with a posy design
Having a background in illustration and the fact that you may not have an exact example of a bouquet or arrangement that someone would like, I often design and draw images for clients.
I often find that people who quite often live abroad and are only visiting Cambridge again, to get married and may not be able to visit a florist inbetween, appreciate this.
I also find as a florist it's nice to have an image to work from so you're not just designing as you go.
It's not always possible due to time but I like to provide people with this if I can, as it's part of my skill set also.
Here's an example of some of mine
