Artfully Gathered; Untamed Elegance: Your Guide to Cornwall Wedding Flowers
Finding your wedding flowers is one of the most exciting parts of planning your special day. If you are marrying in Cornwall, you already know how magical this county is. From rolling countryside to hidden valleys, the landscape inspires unforgettable romance.
At Trelowen Flowers, located right on the edge of Bodmin Moor, just north of Liskeard, we believe your wedding blooms should feel like an extension of this beautiful scenery. We specialise in a style of untamed elegance—crafting country garden designs that look artfully gathered, organic, and breathtakingly romantic.
From Our Fields to Your Bouquet: The Farmer-Florist DifferenceFrom Our Fields to Your Bouquet: The Farmer-Florist Difference. We are not just florists; we are flower farmers. Nestled on the rugged edge of Bodmin Moor, our flower farm and floristry studio nurture beautiful blooms from seed to center-piece. Because we handle every step—from tending the soil to artfully gathering your final bouquets—your wedding flowers will be uniquely seasonal, incredibly fresh, and deeply sustainable. By cutting our blooms directly from our Cornish fields just before your wedding day, we guarantee an exquisite freshness, vibrant colour, and organic fragrance that imported flowers simply cannot match.
1. Designing for Cornwall’s Premier Venues
We love working with the unique architecture and landscapes of local Cornish venues. Our signature style of untamed elegance is the perfect match for two of our absolute favourites:
- The Green Cornwall: Located right on our doorstep near Liskeard, this venue breathes rustic romance. Our artfully gathered arrangements perfectly mirror the rolling hills and woodland backdrop. Think lush archways and unstructured, meadow-style aisle markers that look like they grew there organically.
- Tredudwell Manor: For this magnificent coastal manor and pavilion, we lean into a more classic country-garden luxury. We pair romantic, tumbling roses with delicate, airy filler flowers to complement the historic charm and stunning sea-breeze vistas.
2. Embrace the Season and the Soil
Choosing seasonal flowers ensures your bouquets are exceptionally fresh, fragrant, and sustainable. Because Cornwall enjoys a unique, mild microclimate, our local flora thrives beautifully throughout the year.
- Spring: Soft bluebells, tulips, and fragrant lily of the valley.
- Summer: Pillowy peonies, lush hydrangeas, and striking larkspur.
- Autumn: Richly toned dahlias, asters, and structural seed heads.
- Winter: Elegant hellebores, delicate anemones, and glossy evergreens.
3. Scent Your Day with Moorland Greenery
The scent of your flowers will trigger wonderful memories for decades to come. Based on the edge of Bodmin Moor, we love weaving fragrant, organic foliage into our designs to bring the outside in.
- Eucalyptus: Adds a beautiful silvery-blue tone that mimics the Cornish sea.
- Fresh Herbs: Rosemary, mint, and lavender add a calming, botanical aroma to your bouquet.
- Cornish Pittosporum: A regional staple that gives arrangements a lush, glossy, and unstructured shape.
4. Insider Tips for Your Cornwall Wedding
