Build your own
Get a price
None of this has to be taken whole. Pick the pieces you want, leave the ones you don't, and I'll price it as it stands. Minimum spend £250 on venue styling. Personal flowers have no minimum.
How it works
Four steps, and the last one is mine
This is the part people expect to be complicated. It isn't.
One
Ask
Send me your date and a rough idea of what you're picturing. I'll tell you whether I'm free and what it would cost. No obligation either way.
Two
Choose
Take a package as it stands, or build your own from any of it. You can swap pieces in and out up to eight weeks before, at no cost.
Three
Hold the date
25% secures it and comes off your balance. The rest is due eight weeks before the wedding, and then flowers are off your list.
Four
The day itself
I bring everything to your venue. Set it out yourselves, or have me set it all up and come back for it the next day. Nothing to post back either way.
Bouquets & buttonholes
Hire them, or keep them
Personal flowers work either way. Hire them for the day, or have them made to order and keep them. A bouquet that still looks like this on your first anniversary, and on your tenth.
Gallery
Up close, where it counts
Close up is where these earn their keep, so close up is how I photograph them. Have a proper look.
Preview pack
See one before you decide
Photographs only go so far, and you are being asked to take my word for it. So don't. Tell me the colours you're working to and I'll post you two stems from the collection. Keep them on the kitchen table for a few days, look at them in daylight, and decide in your own time.
£5 including postage, and it comes off your booking.
About
Why Rose
My Grannie Alice grew roses. I grow roses. I've still got her rose in the garden, thirty years old and more, and every summer it comes back, the same bright, unapologetic red.
That's where the name comes from, and the red you'll find running through all of this is hers, sampled from a photograph of her rose rather than picked off a chart. The flowers were matched to Alice, not the other way round.
I started this because I kept seeing couples asked to compromise. The flowers they had pictured, or the flowers they could actually have. There is no good reason those should be two different things.
Everything is made in my workshop in Cramlington, and I do the delivery and the collection myself, and the setting up too when you'd like me to. You'll deal with me from the first message to the last box out of the venue.

The detail
The practical bits, up front
- Holding your date
- 25% deposit, non-refundable, and it comes off the final balance.
- The balance
- Due eight weeks before the wedding.
- How long you have it
- 48 hours as standard. Same-night collection is £150 if the venue needs the room back.
- Delivery
- Free within 15 miles of Cramlington, measured one way. Beyond that, 45p a mile on every mile over 15, charged per journey.
- Setting up
- Every price here is delivered to you. If you'd like me to set it all up on the day and take it down afterwards, that is a separate line on your quote, wherever you are.
- Setting up yourselves
- Absolutely fine, wherever you are. Plenty of couples do, and there is nothing to post back afterwards.
- The returnable deposit
- £100 on venue pieces and £50 on hired bouquets. Separate from the deposit that holds your date, and back to you once everything comes back. Nothing to pay on anything you are buying.
- Changing your mind
- Swap pieces in and out up to eight weeks before, at no cost.
- Seeing one first
- £5 for two stems by post, refunded against your booking.
- Short notice
- I hold real stock, so if what you want is on the shelf, a date three weeks away is no harder than one next summer. Ask and I'll tell you straight.
Where I cover
Newcastle, Gosforth, Ponteland, Whitley Bay, Tynemouth, Morpeth, Blyth, Ashington and across North Tyneside, every one of them inside the free 15 miles. Further afield is no problem at all, it just picks up mileage.
Enquire
Tell me about your day
The more you tell me, the more useful my reply will be. Colours, venue, how many tables, what you've already sorted. All of it helps. And if your date is weeks away rather than months, say so and ask anyway.
Thank you, that's landed with me
I'll have a proper look at your date and come back to you within a day, usually the same one.
If you think of anything else in the meantime, hello@carolinerose.co.uk comes straight to me.
