We may be biased, but, what is a wedding or an event without beautiful flowers? Our guess is, as you are here, you must think they are important too?

We understand the importance of creating a feeling and mood through completely suited floral arrangements and styling. We work hand in hand with you to ensure that your flowers tie together all the aesthetic qualities of your special day.

We are delighted to create bespoke, elegant, and romantic floral designs that will leave a lasting impression on you and your guests.

  • Anne & Jamie in Monks Lane by John Beasley Photography

    "THE FLOWERS OMG!!!! They were the highlight of our wedding, everyone was completely blown away. From the stunning bouquet, to the incredible hanging florals, absolutely magnificent arch and the perfect corsages (along with all the other florals you packed in there), we were just totally floored. I can’t thank you enough for turning an already beautiful place into our dream venue"

  • Cassie & Caitriona by Magda Lukas

    “I honestly couldn't believe it when I walked around after the wedding ceremony, I was struck by how incredible the flowers looked. It was such a special moment to put the combs in our hair and the boutonnieres on the boys! I can't thank you enough, they are still the thing that everyone talks about. You really made the whole thing so special for us"

    Cassie & Caitriona, Ballinacurra House Wedding

  • Andrea & Paul by Tanya Eden Photography

    "Our flowers were one of the most important elements of our wedding day and Flicky made the whole experience so enjoyable and easy. Flicky's passion and artistry for what she does is inspiring and our wedding flowers were breathtakingly beautiful; they were the talking point throughout our wedding and exceeded all our expectations."

  • Denise & Eanna by Laura & Benny

    "Booking Flicky was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Super friendly, effective communication (as we were planning from abroad) and amazing end result. She asks simple key questions to understand what you want. The flowers were exactly what I wanted and more. She is truely an artist and it is seen in the finer detail of the flowers! She repurposed them from the church to the venue and we used them ourselves for our day 2 also! All of our guests loved them. I would have no hesitation recommending Howe Hill Flowers for your big day!"

We design straight into water, or using compostable Agrawool foam. For meadow designs that are being moved and restyled we use plant based “Renewal” foam.

We use Irish grown flowers and foliage as a priority, and only use the absolute BEST of imports when needed, always looking at provinence and applying Fairtrade & BDS buying principles.

We keep floristry clean.

FAQs

  • You can browse our portfolio right here. We also regularly post our work on our Instagram page @howehillflowers

    Our work is also featured on Rock My Wedding, Style Me Pretty, One Fab Day, Hitched and Evoke Magazine.

  • Howe Hill Flowers was officially launched in May 2019, and we began undertaking weddings in 2020.

    Our team is led by Flicky Howe, and she has 23 years experience in wedding and event floristry.

  • During the Irish season, late March to late September, we grow a lot of our own flowers, which play a leading role in our designs.

    As we do a lot of weddings and events, and because each one is working to specific colour palettes, we cannot grow enough ourselves to solely provide enough volume of flowers for all our bookings.

    We supplement with produce from other local flower growers and directly from the Dutch flower market.

    We are very careful about the product that we buy from the Dutch market, always prefering Fairtrade certified and European grown. We NEVER buy flowers and foliage from Israel or countries involved in aggressive occupation and conflict.

  • We cover weddings throughout County Cork, we mostly work with weddings in West Cork, Cork City and East Cork areas.

    We are willing to travel to neighbouring counties Kerry, Tipperary and Waterford. We will also consider some venues in Co.Kilkenny. A minimum spend of €4000+ applies for all counties outside Co.Cork.

  • The general "rule" for wedding flowers is 10% to 20%+ of your overall wedding budget. For an event a similar budgeting strategy can be applied. It really does depend on how much flowers you want to see featured in your day, and afterwards, in your photographs.

    We find these budgets work for full service weddings at various venues;

    Civil ceremony at hotel venue €2500 to €5000+ (a typical or average spend we see is around €3000 to €4000, for weddings to include any type of arch or large floral installation you would be looking at the €3500+ mark)

    Church ceremony & hotel reception €2500 to €8000+ (a typical or average spend we see is around €3500, for any type of arch or large floral installation you would be looking at around the €3500+ mark)

    Private house & marquee €4000 to €12000+ (a typical or average spend we see is around €6000 to €10000)

    For smaller wedding flower orders we encourage you to consider collecting your flower order from our studio and looking after all logistical aspects of transport and installation yourself. A typical bridal party plus ceremony arrangement and a few basic extras might cost anything between €600 and €1500.

    We have an Wedding Flowers Brochure available to view here which includes some guide pricing and details of all our service streams.

    You can also refer to this article here but please note it is now a number of years old (published mid 2024).

  • We offer a selection of our Treasures inventory to hire as standalone pieces. You can find them here!

  • It is something we will consider but, there are a few things to note;

    1. This is a holiday period, as in public holiday. In accordance with the WPRC you will be paying us a premium working rate durng this week. At a minimum, our “on the day” service charge will be double time.

    2. The Dutch Market is closed. In 2025 the last delivery from Holland before Christmas arrives to our studio December 23rd. There are no further deliveries arriving until December 28th, and the inventory is scarce. We always try to preorder your flowers from our suppliers for this period by the end of November to guarantee we get what you want and at a fixed price, if we wait to order later/closer the date the price can be affected by the market and may increase.

    3. We do have a cold room in our studio and we can store flowers for a longer time than most others, so if your wedding is December 27th or 28th we would receive your flowers to our studio on December 23rd and put them in our cold room. A wedding on the 27th we would most likely start your arrangements on Christmas Day, or for 28th on St.Stephens Day. Please see point #1

    4. Small orders are not feasible for us at this time. We will be ordering all the flowers in from Holland and our suppliers have a minimum order. Our minimum order for flowers during the week from December 23rd through January 1st is €3000+

    5. The weather is entireley unpredictable and travel may be affected. For this reason we will only service weddings within 30km driving distance of our studio during this time.

    6. If you are getting married anytime during the last two weeks of December book a florist well in advance. You will find many florists will not take on wedding work at this time.
