As the days lengthen and the Yorkshire landscape bursts into full bloom, summer offers an incredible palette for wedding flowers. At Blossom Wild Florals, there’s nothing we love more than diving into the richness and variety of British-grown summer blooms to create your perfect wildly organic and garden-inspired arrangements.

If you’re planning a summer wedding in York or the wider North Yorkshire region, prepare to be inspired by the sheer abundance and natural beauty that British flowers bring to your special day.

The Charm of British Summer Blooms for Your Yorkshire Wedding

Choosing flowers grown right here in the UK for your summer wedding means more than just beautiful aesthetics; it’s a choice for quality, sustainability, and authentic character:

• Peak Freshness: British summer flowers are often cut just days, or even hours, before your event. This means they’re at their most vibrant, fragrant, and resilient, ensuring your arrangements look stunning throughout your celebration.

• Unrivalled Variety: Our local growers cultivate an astounding array of blooms during the summer months, offering unique shapes, textures, and colours that you simply won't find anywhere else.

• Eco-Conscious Choice: By selecting British flowers, you significantly reduce the carbon footprint associated with imported blooms, aligning your wedding with an environmentally thoughtful approach.

• Supporting Our Community: Your choice directly supports dedicated British flower farmers and contributes to a thriving local economy and sustainable agricultural practices.

Our Top British Summer Blooms for Wild & Whimsical Designs

Here are some of our most cherished British-grown flowers that truly define the summer season, perfect for crafting Blossom Wild Florals’ signature romantically wild and whimsical arrangements:

1. English Garden Roses: Classic Romance with a Wild Heart

Nothing says "romance" quite like an English Garden Rose. Grown for their exquisite perfume, abundant petals, and natural, often cupped forms, these roses come in an array of soft pastels, vibrant pinks, and creamy whites. They are the quintessential bloom for adding luxurious softness and a timeless garden feel.

• Our Style Tip: We often use English Garden Roses as a focal point, letting their natural form dictate the flow of a bridal bouquet or spilling elegantly from a grand centrepiece. They blend seamlessly with looser, wilder elements for a truly organic look.

2. Sweet Peas: Delicate Fragrance and Whimsical Charm

Continuing their bloom from late spring into summer, British sweet peas are an absolute delight. Their paper-thin petals, delicate tendrils, and intoxicating fragrance make them indispensable for adding a touch of ephemeral beauty and subtle movement to any design.

• Our Style Tip: Sweet peas are perfect for creating that airy, ethereal quality in bouquets and smaller arrangements. Their scent is enchanting, and we love to weave them through designs to add a sense of lightness and natural elegance.

3. Delphiniums & Larkspur: Majestic Height and Cottage Garden Grace

For impactful height and a glorious vertical element, British-grown delphiniums and their close relatives, larkspur, are unmatched. Available in stunning blues, purples, whites, and pinks, they bring a stately yet natural elegance, evoking classic cottage gardens.

• Our Style Tip: We use these spires to create dramatic backdrops for ceremonies or as central, towering features in large floral installations. In bouquets, smaller stems add beautiful texture and an upward sweep, grounding the wilder elements.

4. Dahlias: Abundance and Bursting Colour

As summer progresses into its peak and late season, British dahlias become the stars of the show. With an incredible diversity of forms – from intricate pompons to dinner-plate-sized decorative blooms – and a kaleidoscope of colours, they offer endless possibilities for adding bold texture and vibrant personality.

• Our Style Tip: Dahlias are incredibly versatile. We love them as hero flowers in bouquets, bringing a generous, abundant feel, or massed in centrepieces for a luxurious, garden-luxe look. Their variety allows us to tailor them to any summer wedding palette.

British Blooms for your Spring Wedding

Celebrating British Blooms

For couples dreaming of a truly authentic and naturally beautiful wedding in Yorkshire, choosing seasonal British flowers for spring is an unparalleled choice. At Blossom Wild Florals, we are deeply passionate about working with the finest blooms grown right here in the UK. This approach allows us to create those wildly organic, garden-inspired arrangements that perfectly capture the essence of spring in our stunning county.

Why Choose British Spring Blooms for Your Yorkshire Wedding?

Opting for British-grown flowers for your spring wedding isn't just a trend; it's a commitment to freshness, sustainability, and supporting local growers.

• Unrivalled Freshness: British flowers often travel fewer miles from field to florist, meaning they arrive in peak condition, with vibrant colours and a longer vase life for your wedding day.

• Unique Character: Local blooms have a natural, unforced beauty that imported flowers often lack. They reflect the true seasonality and charm of the British landscape.

• Sustainability: Reducing carbon footprint by cutting down on air miles is a significant benefit, aligning with an eco-conscious approach to wedding planning.

• Supporting Local: Choosing British growers directly contributes to our local economy and helps sustain the beautiful flower farming industry across the UK.

Our Favourite British Spring Blooms for Your Yorkshire Wedding

Here are some of the stars of the season, all beautifully grown in the UK, perfect for creating Blossom Wild Florals' signature romantically wild and whimsical designs:

1. Ranunculus: The Epitome of Ruffled Romance

These delicate, multi-petalled beauties are a firm favourite. British growers are increasingly perfecting ranunculus cultivation under cover, providing us with stunning varieties in an incredible spectrum of colours – from soft blush and creamy white to rich crimson and vibrant orange. Their many layers of petals create a luxurious, soft texture that is truly captivating.

• Our Style Tip: Ranunculus are ideal as a focal point in bridal bouquets, their ruffled forms spilling out for that natural, undone feel. They also add incredible depth and charm to table centrepieces, nestled amongst delicate foliage.

2. Anemones: Striking Simplicity

With their distinctive dark centres and velvety petals, British-grown anemones offer a striking contrast. Available in classic whites, as well as captivating blues, purples, and vibrant reds, they bring a touch of chic elegance while remaining wonderfully organic.

• Our Style Tip: Anemones are perfect for creating a bold statement. Their unique appearance draws the eye and adds an artistic edge to arrangements. We often pair them with lighter, more airy blooms to create dynamic visual interest in bouquets and ceremony backdrops.

3. Hellebores: Woodland Whimsy


Often among the earliest flowers to emerge, hellebores are a staple of the British garden in early spring. Their subtle, nodding heads and often speckled petals bring an intriguing, woodland-inspired charm. They add a sophisticated touch of wildness and understated elegance.

• Our Style Tip: Hellebores are excellent for arrangements that feel genuinely gathered from a magical garden. Their delicate structure adds beautiful movement and depth, making them ideal for adding detail in bouquets, boutonnieres, and smaller, intimate table arrangements.

4. Tulips: Elegant & Dynamic


Forget the rigid perception of tulips; British growers cultivate exquisite varieties with long, elegant stems and beautifully formed petals. French and Parrot tulips, for instance, naturally bend and sway, adding incredible movement and character to any design.

• Our Style Tip: These more unusual tulip varieties are fantastic for introducing height and flowing lines. We embrace their natural inclinations, allowing them to lean and cascade, creating that beautiful, artistic shape in hand-tied bouquets and larger floral installations.

5. Sweet Peas: Fragrant & Delicate

A quintessential British garden flower, sweet peas are adored for their intoxicating fragrance and delicate, fluttering petals. They embody the charming and ephemeral beauty of spring.

• Our Style Tip: Sweet peas are brilliant for adding softness, fine texture, and that unforgettable scent to arrangements. We use them generously in bridal bouquets and smaller, personal designs where their fragrance can truly be appreciated, intertwining them with other blooms for an ethereal and heartfelt feel.
