Every one of our designs are created by an incredible team who simply love what they do. From luxury roses to scented lilies, every stem is hand-conditioned to last, before the team work their magic. Each bouquet is then beautifully packaged to ensure a finish of the highest standard...
Siân Wild
Lovingly known as ‘Boss Lady’ by The Flower Lounge team, Siân’s passion for flowers started as a child and she has been working in the floristry industry for over 20 years; running The Flower Lounge since 2009. Her great loves include turning people’s floral visions into reality and walking with Charlie, her black Labrador, on the beach. Her favourite flower is hydrangea, especially in the autumn, when the colours become even richer!
Siân is always pushing for creative excellence, which has won The Flower Lounge multiple industry awards, including British Florist Association’s Florist Shop of the Year, and enabled her to achieve a place on the expert panel for the Good Florist Guide. More recently, Siân has part of the judging panel for the coveted Wedding Industry Awards.
The Team
Emily
It comes as no surprise that Emily’s favourite flower is a peony…it’s as sunny as her personality! A lover of saccharine sweet Christmas films, dancing like no one is watching, summer flowers and the deliciously scented eucalyptus, it is in fact Emily’s huge array of cheesy jokes that keep our customers entertained.
Steve
With his amazing people skills and invaluable retail skill, Steve primarily delivers floral creations to our customers, he just can’t get enough of the ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs’ when people see them! And don’t let his vintage Adidas trainers deceive you, there is no one else who could install a beautiful, delicate floral staircase installation with more care and attention to detail than Steve. His favourite flower is King Protea.
Rachel
There is a rose for every occasion and for every season, this and their undeniable beauty and scent make them Rachel’s favourite flower. Cool under pressure, her zen-like calm makes her ideally suited to working on our exciting events and installations. So, it comes as no surprise that she also enjoys a spot of relaxing yoga, in addition to a life-long passion for floristry.
Em
Em brings with her a passion and flair for natural design with the abundance of pretty blooms and textured materials making spring her favourite season. A keen cyclist and sewer, Em is both energetic and creative, an ideal combo for this job! Her favourite flower is the rannunculus.
Mark
Our talented freelance florist and flower demonstrator, Mark is the only member of the team to say winter is his favourite season as it gives him a chance to use his favourite flower; the Amaryllis. He likes new challenges, which explains why as well as being a florist he is also a qualified wig-maker!

Awards
We are delighted to have been crowned Florist Website of the Year twice by The British Florist Association, as well as Florist Shop of the Year 2019 by this prestigious organisation. We’re also very proud of our accolade of The Wedding Industry Award's National Wedding Florist of the Year & North West regional winner on three separate occasions!
These awards mean a lot to us, as they are voted for by our customers and the brides and grooms we work with. It really is as much about what our clients say, as it is about the work showcasing our skills and creativity.
We always make it our priority to build close relationships with our clients, as it’s this understanding and bond which helps to make the whole floristry experience so memorable.
