Meet Adele & Gemma
“We thought it was about the flowers, but really it’s about the people.”
​
In 2019, we both were seeking change and retrained as florists.
We left corporate jobs after realising the corporate world no longer suited us and we pursued our passion for flowers by setting up floristry businesses- only 4 miles apart.
​
After a chance meeting via Instagram, we went on to support each other, working for each other over a period of two years. We finally realised in 2023 that we were stronger and happier together. In April 2023 we formed Fig and Bramble Ltd.
​
​​
Adele, a former environmental manager, brings her expertise in sustainable, environmentally- sympathetic floristry to the company, whilst Gemma, a former solicitor, brings a sharp attention to detail and great organisational skills.
​
Our journey began with a love of flowers, but we soon realised it was really all about people. From new babies, to school proms, graduations, birthdays, engagements, marriages, anniversaries, thank yous, thinking of yous, sympathies and final flowers, we are deeply honoured to have a role in every phase of life; through every high and low. We deliver hugs in the form of bouquets, we beam with brides on their most special day, we laugh with grooms as we help them put on buttonholes and we pour compassion into our funeral arrangements. We are proud to be emotionally invested in all our floral designs and we hope that shows in our flowers.
Naturally styled, using British flowers when possible, we create: Wildly Romantic Florals
Our Ethos
We believe in eliminating single use plastic and waste in our designs.
​
All our designs are created in water or reusable materials (we do not use floral foam) and all floral products are locally composted after use. ​
​
We adore using locally grown, seasonal florals with a low environmental impact. Whilst supply limitations mean we are unable to supply exclusively British-grown florals, we will always use them when available.
​
All our wedding designs are delivered personally by Gemma or Adele to ensure excellent customer service, in our zero emissions electric vehicles (look out for Patsy and Eddie, our beautiful vans!).
