Flora Flora is a sustainable florist and event studio at 11 Cawthron Crescent in Annesbrook, Nelson. The website says the florist works without floral foam, using reusable supports such as moss, chicken wire and flower frogs. Its best-known offer is The Wild Aisle, an adventure wedding package for couples who want to marry on a ridgeline, beside a tarn, in a stream or in a hut. The package includes step-by-step guidance, help with the marriage licence, personalised vows and a ceremony script, unlimited high-resolution photos, bouquet and buttonhole florals, and help with permits and carrying equipment. Event florals are also offered, with installations, archway pieces and table settings.
Customers praise the bouquets as stunning and the arrangements for weddings as beautiful and well executed, with the table settings and archway pieces perfect for the day. One customer asked for a wild bouquet for a special occasion and got a colourful, unusual result, and another said the florist went above and beyond on communication and attention to detail. Wedding flowers and flower arrangements come up most often, along with handwritten cards. Earthbloom Florist, 0.7 km away, is the only other florist within a kilometre, and it rates 4.7 from 37 reviews. The owner trained in Auckland and works from Nelson.
