Hi there, welcome to Sweetpea Macfie.
My name is Marie, and as a dedicated Wedding Florist my aim is simple; to turn your wedding flower dreams, into wedding day reality.
My Service
From my home studio in Chesterfield, I work in venues in the Peak District and across Derbyshire. I offer a truly bespoke service, from conception, right through to your big day you will only ever deal with me. This ensures everything, down to the last detail, is perfect for you on your Wedding Day.
My Flowers
The flowers I use capture nature and seasonality, and I adore using locally grown flowers in my designs. There is something really special about a bloom that is nurtured lovingly by a passionate grower. Embracing the UK growing season is key to everything I do and my brides love the idea that their bridal bouquet contains flowers grown just down the road.
Of course, flowers don’t grow all year round here, so during the winter months I do use flowers from further afield.
Kinder to the Planet
Using locally grown flowers, rather than ones that have been flown halfway around the world is of course a huge way to reduce the impact of floristry on our precious environment, but I also work hard to minimise the environmental impact of my work in other ways too. For example, instead of the traditional floral foam (Oasis), which takes many years to biodegrade in a landfill, I now use a wool alternative. I have reduced the amount of plastic I use, and have pared down my packaging.
Grab some Inspiration
The most exciting part of a wedding for me is presenting the bride with her bouquet on the big day, watching her face light up, it’s so special. Here you can take a look at just some of the wonderful wedding flowers I have created, together with reviews from the happy couples. Go to Real Wedding Gallery. There are also some of my own snap shots, to give you inspiration and ideas.
I’d love to hear from you
If you like the sound of things so far, I’d love to hear from you. To get in touch use the form below or call me 07561 102 873. I always prefer to meet in person for the initial consultation, I find it’s a great opportunity to discuss everything from, the theme of the wedding, the colour scheme and of course those beautiful flowers. I will then provide you with a detailed quote, and we take things from there.
