Petals & Posies is a floral design & wedding styling studio based in Hampshire, creating thoughtfully composed weddings across the South. Led by Nicola Waddilove, the studio is known for its refined approach to florals, styling & atmosphere, shaping celebrations that feel personal, balanced & beautifully considered.
Working across country houses, barns, manor houses & contemporary venues, Nicola & her team design weddings that respond naturally to both the couple & the setting. Every detail is carefully considered, from the movement of the florals to the candlelight, textures & styling elements that shape the overall experience of the day.
From bridal bouquets & buttonholes to floral meadows, ceremony designs & statement installations, every arrangement is created using natural flowers selected to complement the space, season & atmosphere of the wedding.
Alongside florals, Petals & Posies offers wedding styling & décor to help bring a sense of flow & refinement throughout the day. This includes candlelight styling, table décor, welcome signage, styling details, statement pieces & carefully selected finishing touches.
Known for her calm approach & thoughtful eye for detail, Nicola works closely with each couple throughout the planning process, ensuring the experience feels inspiring, personal & enjoyable from the initial ideas through to the wedding day itself.
The result is weddings that feel elegant, atmospheric & entirely reflective of the couple celebrating within them.
