Mayflowers Vintage Florist is closed for the Christmas and New Year period.
Thank you for a wonderful year — wishing you a joyful festive season.
We will be back in bloom on February 2, 2026
Welcome to The Mayflowers Journal, a special little corner where I hope you’ll pull up a chair and stay a while, ideally with a nice cup of tea in hand. This is where I’ll share the other side of Mayflowers: the behind-the-scenes stories from our studio, the raw and honest truth of life as a florist, and some of our most treasured floral art.
You’ll find real weddings and celebrations, styling ideas for your own home and garden, the blooms we’re swooning over each season and the moments that inspire me most. Every post is written in the hope that it fills up your creative cup and reminds you to dream a little bigger, because you deserve to make the world pretty and look pretty in your world.
Yours in flowers,
Melanie x
When COVID spoilt her 50th, Melanie decided to do it all again, only this time completely over the top. Pour a cup of tea and step inside her backyard garden party, complete with a hanging floral installation, a golden harp, luxe stationery and all her best china. It’s proof that any suburban backyard can become something magical with a little vision.
