Wedding flowers that arch, climb and spill
About Foxgloves and Roses
Foxgloves & Roses is a fine art wedding florist based in a barn near Wantage, Oxfordshire, creating nature-led wedding flowers that look as though they grew where they stand, for weddings across Oxfordshire, the Cotswolds and beyond.
Nicola Roberton founded Foxgloves & Roses in 2011, growing flowers in her own garden in Letcombe Bassett before a first wedding request turned a hobby into a business. She works from a barn on a hill in south Oxfordshire, creating fine art wedding flowers for weddings across Oxfordshire, the Cotswolds, and the surrounding counties of Berkshire, Hampshire, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire.
The studio's flowers are designed to look as though they grew where they stand: rose arches climbing old stone, top tables dressed as if the blooms had simply spilled there on a dewy morning. By 2017, six years into the business, Nicola had dressed around a hundred weddings and was shortlisted for the UK's Best Wedding Florist title at the UK Wedding Awards, a nomination covered by the Oxford Mail. The studio is trusted by venues including Blenheim Palace, Ardington House, Stowe House, the Ashmolean Museum and Caswell House, and favours seasonal, mostly British flowers throughout.

PlatinumMade For
Nicola Roberton left a job in PR to become a florist. She grew up making tiny bouquets from wildflowers on the walk home from school in Kennington, and after she and her husband David moved back to Oxfordshire to raise their children, she started growing flowers in her own garden, then selling small bunches at the school gate. A first wedding request followed, and within a couple of years she took the plunge into it full time, founding Foxgloves & Roses in 2011. By 2017 she had dressed around a hundred weddings and was shortlisted for the UK's Best Wedding Florist title at the UK Wedding Awards, a public-vote nomination covered at the time by the Oxford Mail. She now works from a barn on a hill in Letcombe Bassett, in the chalk downland south of Wantage, and keeps a private monthly practice she calls the Artist's Table, still-life studies built from whatever the garden and hedgerow are offering that month.
