Meet Our Florists
Hello!
After many years of combined experience as florists, we have had the joy of bringing countless weddings and corporate events to life through the beauty of flowers.
Each arrangement tells a unique story, carefully crafted to reflect the vision and emotions of our clients. From intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, our passion for floral design shines through, creating unforgettable moments that enhance every occasion.
I'm Sue, and I have loved flowers and all things green since I was a little girl secretly picking my Grandad’s huge bright dahlia heads near Lavender Hill in London where I was born. My family moved to Farnham when I was 5 years old with Mum, Dad, 2 sisters and baby brother where I was given my very own piece of garden to grow whatever I liked!
​
After training as a chef and successfully owning a restaurant, my passion for flowers wouldn’t be silenced so I trained as a florist and it was one of the best things I ever did! My love for food and cooking is still reflected in my floral designs as I often use vegetables, fruit, nuts and seeds in my pieces.
​
Wanting to soak up as many different aspects of floristry, I worked freelance for other shops and event companies whilst building my wedding floral design business from my home in Farnham. During my career I have arranged weddings at Westminster Abbey, St. Paul’s cathedral and Hampton Court and have supplied flowers to the homes of many celebrities including Cliff Richard, Elton John, Amanda Holden and Cilla Black to name just a few!
The year I arranged over 60 weddings from home with flowers and foliage covering my garden and most rooms in the house filled with vases and buckets I knew it was time to realise my dream and open a shop!
Lavender Hill Company was born and I moved into my beautiful premises in Ridgway Road in Farnham just before Christmas 2010. In 2015 we opened the doors of our fabulous new shop down the road in Lower Bourne, with more space, lots of light and plenty of room for all our floral workshops. Since 2025 I have joined forces with the lovely Jane at Hazelbank Nursery & Florist in Tilford and I am delighted to continue working on my passion from this beautiful location.
I'm Jane, and flowers have been at the heart of my life since I was 16, when I first trained as a florist.
What began as a passion quickly grew into a successful career in floristry, alongside building a thriving gardening business.
Today, I'm proud to own and run a local garden nursery, florist and café - spaces rooted in creativity, community and a love of the outdoors. My work is inspired by nature, the changing seasons, and years spent with my hands in the soil.
I'm hardworking, deeply passionate about what I do, and truly happiest creating beautiful floral designs that tell a couple's story on their wedding day.
