Defining our style as designers at The Flower Guys is something that is always evolving. We’re learning that some of our favourite work happens when a bouquet becomes more than just flowers — when every stem has a story.
Chloe Parker ‘s burgundy bouquet was truly a labour of love, and one that involved a whole little community.
Chloe asked us for something dark, romantic and as close to black as nature would give us — and somehow, everything came together at exactly the right time.
At the heart of it was the incredibly rare and notoriously hard to grow, Czarny Charakter dahlia, grown by Scott’s mom, Kelly. She waited two years for this plant to finally bloom, which she purchased from the wonderful Amble & Blume - Mostly Dahlias in 2025 and somehow its first flowers arrived just in time for Chloe’s wedding. You really couldn’t plan it if you tried.
We tucked in flowers from our own garden that we had grown specifically with this wedding in mind, along with beautiful locally grown product from all our local flower friends and our ever amazing Mt Newton Floral !
That’s what we’re realizing The Flower Guys style is becoming.
A little unexpected. A little wild. Locally grown whenever we can. Flowers chosen not just because they’re beautiful, but because they mean something.
This bouquet passed through a lot of hands before it ever reached Chloe’s — and we think that makes it even more special.
Grown, gathered and designed with a whole lot of love.
Lots more of this wedding coming soon… 🤎🖤♥️
