Testimonials
‘’Sam was a part of our team at Claridge's for 4 years. Despite being a freelancer, she worked with us 2/3 days per week and felt very much part of our family. She was honest, reliable, hard-working, courteous and professional at all times. She has a natural creative flair and attention to detail which is essential for clients of the calibre we deal with on
a daily basis. Her sunny disposition made her very popular with clients and Claridge's staff alike and she is missed by
us all.’’
Kally Ellis | Managing Director, McQueens LLP
‘’We became aware of Sam’s work before High House opened as a wedding venue as she was the florist for a family wedding and had made bouquets for us on special occasions over time. We were so impressed with her work that we added her to our recommended supplier list as soon as we opened in May 2015. As a result, Sam is recommended to all couples getting married at High House as one of the best florists in Essex.
Sam has been the florist at many High House Weddings. As a result we have seen lots of examples of her work, suiting every budget. From the small and pretty to the tall and breath taking, Sam’s work never fails to impress. We also do not just recommend Sam due to her beautiful flowers, it is also because of Sam herself. Her warm and professional manner puts couples at ease from the moment they meet her, through to the wedding day itself when she sets up at the venue and personally delivers the bouquet to the bride. We cannot recommend Sam highly enough to anyone looking for flowers for any occasion.’’
Samantha, Events Director at High House
‘’Sam, thank you so much for our absolutely stunning Wedding flowers! You took an idea and made it in to a truly beautiful display that was such a talk of our wedding and a beautiful feature to so many pictures. I couldn't of ever imagined having such beautiful displays. You were an absolute pleasure to work with - so friendly and so caring about our special day! I couldn't dream of working with anybody else. I've been lucky enough since our wedding to see other work you have done at other weddings and private events and you truly are a one in a lifetime florist! Thank you so much again and I can't wait to have some more of your beautiful creations!’’

" Sam was our florist for our wedding at High House 03/10/16 and I can honestly say she was our most favourite supplier, from start to finish, bearing in mind our wedding planning to wedding day was only the short space of three months! She was amazing to deal with, she almost seemed more excited about our wedding than we were! She was very professional never putting any pressure on us to order anything we didn't want and created some beautiful mood boards for us to gain ideas from. She was very flexible and went the extra mile to help us stay in our budget. The flowers themselves were beautiful and you can tell that she really cares, not only about making sure that the flowers look great on the day but also that you, as a couple, are happy every step of the way. We saw her at the open days at the venue and she always knew exactly who we were and what we were having, creating special displays for us to view. These personal touches make a massive difference to helping ease the stress of organising a wedding and Sam has stress free floristry down to a fine art. Thanks again Sam for all your help and for amazing floristry work!’’

‘’We used Samantha May Floristry for our wedding in November 2015. I am so so glad that we booked her for our wedding. The booking was quite last minute with only a few weeks notice, but we weren't treated any differently to someone that had booked a year in advance. I sent Sam lots of pictures including ones of my dress etc and she knew exactly what to put together. We ended up with beautiful cream roses and white hydrangeas which just looked amazing. On the day Sam was there promptly and put everything on with no fuss whatsoever, everything looked beautiful. The day after she was back at our venue first thing to collect everything, again no fuss and no trouble at all. I would not hesitate to recommend Sam and her team to anyone for any occasion, she is a true professional and a real credit to
her industry.’’

‘’The quality and design of Sam's bouquets and flower displays are always second to none. Sam goes one step further
by ensuring her flowers are fresh (so they last longer) and adds a design flare that makes a regular bouquet into
a beautiful one.’’
Jean & Theo
‘’Sam did our flowers for our wedding day. From the moment Sam answered the phone I had complete confidence. I explained my basic ideas and she was able to go through with me what I wanted and exactly which flowers and Colour to order. Even after a disaster with the bridesmaids dresses falling through, she was at hand with colour swatches to change the colour and with advice. The flowers arrived on the wedding day exactly when they were expected and they looked absolutely beautiful. I can't thank you enough for making a potentially stressful process so easy calm and worry free. I loved my bouquet so much that after the wedding I had it frozen and put in to a frame to keep as a memory of the day.’’
Lisa & Steve
‘’I first saw how amazing Samantha's work was when I attended my friends wedding, so naturally when it came around for me to choose a florist for my wedding I just had to book her. When making an appointment to see Sam she was easy to contact, got back to me instantly if not within the same day. Sam is lovely and was extremely helpful with giving me a few ideas to think about, she definitely made my wedding planning less stressful!
On the wedding day Sam couldn't've been better, we had a really early wedding so she was at my house extremely early to drop off the bouquets and a few of the button holes then made her way to venue to set up. Arriving at the venue I was able to see Sam's masterpiece which was so beautiful and way beyond what I had envisioned. I can't thank Sam enough for how amazing she was and the flowers were, they bought the whole theme of the wedding together’’
Rhianna
‘’Sam was recommended to us, and I'm so glad we found her. Her attention to detail is amazing, and our flowers were exactly as we had imagined - I cried when I saw them on the morning of our wedding, they were perfect and we couldn't have found anyone better!’’
Danielle Beckford
‘’Sam arrived at an ungodly hour to start her work of the day and I must say, as horrible as a 3am start must've been it really was worth it as we received so many compliments on the flowers, the décor, the whole look of the venue which Sam made feel very 'us'. I'm so grateful for Sam's easy-going attitude (keeping even our stressed selves calm!) and for her managing to hit the nail on the head for every single element - from scattered petals on a dining table to our huge floral archway in the ceremony room. Thank you, Sam for all the work you put into making it our venue and the perfect setting for the best day of our lives.’’
Phoebe Smith
‘’Sam was a dream to work with, super professional and the ultimate perfectionist! All the way through from our first conversation to the first meeting, to the big day, Sam worked incredibly hard and cared so much that we were getting what we wanted. I am obsessed with blue hydrangeas and Sam created the most stunning bouquet I have ever seen! The bridesmaids also loved their bouquets and it went perfectly with their dresses! The British weather let us down but Sam did not! Sam turned our venue into our English country tea party dream. The beautiful outdoor gazebo vines she made were beautifully styled last minute in the barn... and it was impossible to have been disappointed even though we had hoped for an outdoor wedding. The venue was made perfect! I cannot express how happy I was with Sam's masterful creations and cannot recommend her highly enough. I read many articles in Bridal magazines saying save your money on flowers... well clearly they have never met Sam because her flowers made my day.’’
Stephanie Fitzpatrick
‘’Charlie and I just wanted to thank you for the most beautiful flowers on our wedding day. The Church looked absolutely stunning, and so did the flowers at High House, they were perfect! Also thank you for such beautiful bouquets for myself and my bridesmaids, they were stunning and complimented the dresses perfectly. I didn't want to put my bouquet down! I will be sure to recommend you to any friends or family who are getting married in the future, or if I ever need more flowers myself! Thank you again for all of your hard work and help in making the day so special with such amazing flowers.’’
Laura & Charlie
‘’Sam did my wedding flowers, they were English country garden style, they were completely perfect, just what I imagined but in fact even better. I had so many lovely comments about the beautiful flowers, fantastic communication from start to finish. Sam has also over the years made me lots of lovely bouquets, which have always been stunning. Thank you Sam.’’
