I'm still waiting for the postie to get through the snow with something I ordered a while ago now so I know how stressful it can be. If you need a plan B why not go for flowers? We're delivering across Leicester up tp late on Christmas Eve and if you need something last minute flowers definitely beat screenwash and bags of mints from the garage. Leicester is under a lot of snow today and the Leicester Mercury had photos of lots of the Leicester villages snowed in but we'll get your flowers there if it means firing up the snow plough.
We don't just deliver in Leicester, Interflora can get stuff out nationally and internationally if the local shops are able.
We won't let a bit of snow stop us though.

Silk Amarillis
For an on going conference dinner, this customer wanted something that was going to last over the Christmas season. As they didn't want to replace their fresh flowers we advised them to go with a silk arrangement. As the amarillis is a beautiful Christmas flower, it went well with their Christmas seasonal party scene without going down the traditional red and green route. In order to make the flowers look more realistic, we put water in the vase, which is a little trick for your silk flowers to make them look more realistic. The silk flowers are such amazing quality that so many people mistake them for fresh.

Alternative Wedding Table Arrangement
This is a great alternative to a cut flower table arrangement. These Vriesea plants are bright flowers edged with beautiful leaves. They are sitting in tartan fabric on top of gel beads. The great thing about these is that you can give them to people as gifts afterwards and they last really well. Perfect for thankyou presents for not only weddings but also birthday parties, engagement parties and just general get togethers.

Corsages and Button Holes
This wrist corsage was made on a ribbon using a large red rose with white rose petal detailing round the edge. Wrist corsages are becoming really popular and are ideal for older girls who aren't bridesmaids but are still part of the wedding. We can also make our corsages on a band which can have a tighter grip around the wrist.
This was the grooms button hole. The added red petal detailing makes it a bit more special.

Cream and Gold wedding
This bride wanted her wedding to be simple and elegant. These vendella roses are more of a creamy white rather than a snow white, which means they go really well with any colour schemes. Strips of gold beargrass were also included in the bouquet which kept it simple but made it a bit more special.

Wonderful White Wedding
From the smallest wedding to the largest wedding, this bride was sure what she wanted and that was large statement flowers!! Hydrangeas and Lysianthus were a key theme in her wedding and everything was big, white and glamorous to create the real "wow" factor.
This arrangement on a tall glass vase was placed on every other table. Its a good idea to vary the heights of arrangements on tables as when you walk into the room theres a nice flow of shapes and it makes the whole place look more pleasing to the eye.These glass fishbowls with gorgeous purple calla lilies looked perfect as table arrangements. The contrast between the tall white table arrangements and small purple lily arrangements added a great twist to the perfect, white wedding. This idea was quite adventurous yet tied in really well with the outlook of the wedding.

Lilac Ocean Song
Lilac roses have become a real trend and look really pretty when complimenting a garden party themed wedding. If you want something a little bit different to your bog-standard white rose then this is definately the way to go. CW245
This bride wanted the subtle lilacs but with a flash of darker purple to give the theme that extra wow factor. The silk ribbon and pearl pin in the top of each rose complimented her theme beautifully. The flash of darker purple also gave us the chance to be a bit more creative with everything and the bride was really happy with the overall look of her flowers.
