Helen Sheard Floral Designs The Green, Blackmore, Ingatestone CM4 0RR

"Helen did the flowers for our Civil Partnership Ceremony at the Talbooth Restaurant, Dedham in March. We wanted an arrangement that could be on the ceremony table and then moved to the table for lunch (total 15 people on a large oval table). We asked for joyful, colourful, contemporary arrangements with English seasonal flowers where possible. Helen listened to us and kept us informed the entire time. The arrangements were beautiful and we could not have been happier with them. Would definitely recommend Helen for your event or special occasion."

"Thank you for making and delivering a Christmas candle decoration to my Aunt today, she was very pleased with it and said it was beautiful. She sent me a photo and I agree! A great present."

"What a fantastic experience. Helen is not only a great teacher - her workshops are really inspiring but her ability to interpret what is required by her Brides is amazing. She would certainly be my go to professional if I needed anything to do with flowers and floral artistry."

"WOW! Helen designed and created the flowers for our recent wedding and what an amazing job she did! She worked with us for hours to talk through different options and visited the venue with us to identify places where the flowers could be arranged and take measurements! She went out of her way to identify areas where the flowers could be used multiple times e.g. on the ceremony table and then moved to the top table before moving to the fireplace for the evening. This saved us money, and utilised the flowers in so many different ways. She was so helpful and understanding during the uncertainty caused by the pandemic and allowed us to move our date on two separate occasions without complaint. Due to these changes we moved from a summer wedding to a spring one, which meant we were slightly too early to have peonies as our main flower, but Helen worked with us to identify suitable alternatives which looked just as amazing. As an added thoughtful extra she went above and beyond and unbelievably managed to get hold of a few peonies in our colour scheme which she managed to add to the bridal bouquet which was so special. On the day she was so organised and even created additional floral designs to fit windowsills etc with left over flowers which was extremely thoughtful and generous! She really went the extra mile and the flowers looked incredible! They really made the day and we have had so many guests comment about how beautiful they were. After the wedding we were able to keep the flowers which made really special gifts to our wedding party and they were so fresh that they lasted for over a week! I could not recommend Helen more if I tried, she went above and beyond to make our day so special."

"Helen’s ideas , designs and contemporary displays are always impressive. From small hand cut and tied posies to my favourite, ‘living’ wreaths , where the variety of plants and flowers can be transplanted into your garden, and the wreath bio-degradable. Helen also runs workshops , I’ve attended several for Christmas wreaths and table decorations, always fun and so creative. I can’t recommend Helen Sheard Floral Designs highly enough!"
