My Story

SUZANNE

I retrained as a florist after my own wedding in 2002. At the time I was working in Canary Wharf in investment banking so of course I headed to the West End to be trained by one of the best, Jane Packer. I even had the honour of meeting her. Which was such an inspiration for a wannabe florist.

After completing almost every workshop Jane Packer had on offer I then enrolled at Greenwich Community College to complete the professional certification in Floristry. Soon after graduating from floristry college I followed my passion and dream and started my own business as a wedding florist. This was over 15 years ago! So much has changed in the both the wedding and the flower industry over the years. That is what I love about being a commercial florist keeping ahead of the trends and continuously work on new styles and designs.

I become involved and part of Little Tin Shed in 2015 and loved everything about the business and the brand. I took over the ownership in 2018.

The story of Little Tin Shed

The name “Little Tin Shed” originates from a simple passing moment. Whilst commuting home on a snowy winter’s eve, Joanna the founder of Little Tin Shed was sheltered in a little tin shed on the train platform on the daily commute home from work.

Daydreaming and there you have it – the concept for Little Tin Shed sprung to mind.

Joanna left Little Tin Shed in 2018 to spend time with her family and to pursue an exciting new business venture.

By choosing Little Tin Shed, you are supporting small business in the UK; something of a passion point for us having ourselves faced the challenges of starting a business from our dining table!

🥂 Happy FIFTH Anniversary to Emma & Joe 🥂 ⁠ ⁠ I can’t believe this beautiful day was five years ago! 🤍⁠ ⁠ The brief? Simple elegance and classy.⁠ ⁠ Emma & Joe wanted a timeless black-tie affair, filled with beautiful white flowers and candles everywhere. With autumn just beginning to make an appearance outside, we wanted to bring that cosy feeling indoors too — creating a warm, romantic atmosphere with the room glowing in candlelight. 🕯️🤍⁠ ⁠ The result was effortlessly elegant, timeless and absolutely beautiful.⁠ ⁠ ✨ White flowers. Black tie. Candlelight. Pure elegance.⁠ ⁠ Want to see more from this gorgeous wedding?

THIS is what October weddings look like!⁠ ⁠ Real-life wedding inspiration from Jane & Kenny, who got married 2 years ago at the beautiful Friern Manor.⁠ ⁠ This look is proof that timeless never goes out of style. It looked gorgeous then, and it still looks just as beautiful today. ✨⁠ ⁠ Jane chose beautiful white Colombian roses with delicate gypsophila for a classic, romantic look.⁠ ⁠ Their ceremony featured our faux/silk floral arch, which was then repurposed after the ceremony and moved behind the top table giving the flowers a whole new purpose and making the most of the styling throughout the day. 🤍⁠ ⁠ For the tables, we kept things beautifully simple with long-stemmed Colombian roses and flickering candlelight.⁠ ⁠ The result? Chic, elegant and effortlessly romantic.⁠ ⁠ Jane & Kenny - two years on, and we still love your wedding!⁠ ⁠ #OctoberWedding #OctoberWeddingFlowers #AutumnWedding #AutumnWeddingInspiration #WeddingFlowerInspiration #TimelessWedding #TimelessWeddingFlowers #FriernManor #FriernManorWedding #EssexWeddingFlorist #EssexWeddingFlowers #WeddingFloristEssex #WhiteWeddingFlowers #ColombianRoses #GypsophilaWedding #WeddingArch #ElegantWedding #RomanticWedding⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Meet the team :⁠ VENUE : @friernmanor⁠ WEDDING DRESS DESIGNER : @millanova⁠ WEDDING DRESS SHOP : @dressdreamsbridal⁠ HAIIR : @hairbyellarose⁠ MAKE-UP : @makeupbyjaimieattfield⁠ BRIDESMAID DRESSES : @sixstories⁠ CAKE : @tinastcakes⁠ ENTERTAINMENT : @tonykroberts @cj_sax @jamiepnichols⁠ PHOTOGRAPHER : @violasworldweddings⁠ VIDEOGRAPHER : @yourweddingfilms⁠ ⁠

A beautiful August wedding for Laura & Charles at Gaynes Park 🤍 We absolutely loved creating the flowers for this one. Soft whites, blush tones and lots of lovely natural foliage came together so beautifully against the warm, rustic feel of Gaynes Park. From Laura’s gorgeous bridal bouquet to the ceremony flowers and all those little details throughout the day, everything was designed to feel elegant, romantic and, most importantly, like *them*. Congratulations Laura & Charles 🤍 Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness together. Thank you for trusting us with your flowers and allowing us to be part of such a special day. And a huge thank you to Julia & You for capturing it all so beautifully ✨ **Meet the team:** Bride @lauramayhenshall Photography @juliaandyou Venue @gaynespark Celebrant @amywilson_celebrant Makeup @francescapmakeup Hair @catherinebullenhair & @louise.heard_hair_bridal_ for @catherinebullenhair Planning your wedding at Gaynes Park?

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!! 🥂🤍⁠ ⁠ Lauren & Tom | Hatfield Place⁠ 8 September 2023 ✨⁠ ⁠ How gorgeous do these flowers still look?! 🌿🤍 This is exactly what we mean by timeless and classic. They looked stunning then, and they still look just as beautiful today.⁠ ⁠ One of our favourite things about this wedding was how we repurposed all the flowers from the ceremony table into the wedding breakfast. A brilliant way to maximise your florals across the whole day, create impact in different areas and stretch your wedding flower budget further.⁠ ⁠ One arrangement can have more than one moment! ✨⁠ ⁠ And because the wedding celebrations were held indoors with lovely air conditioning, the flowers were protected from the heat, helping them stay fresh and looking their very best throughout the day. 🌸⁠ ⁠ We love creating wedding flowers that are not only beautiful but work hard for your budget too from ceremony to reception, making sure you get the maximum impact from every stem.⁠ ⁠ Planning your wedding and love this timeless, classic look? We can do the same for you. Get in touch today and let’s chat about your wedding flowers. 💐⁠ ⁠ 📧 hello@littletinshed.com⁠ ⁠ 📷 Beautifully photographed by the very talented @juliaandyou⁠ ⁠ Other fabulous suppliers who helped bring Lauren & Tom’s day together:⁠ ⁠ 👰 **Dress Designer:** @enzoani⁠ 🛍️ **Bridal Shop:** @bellissimaweds⁠ 🤵 **Groomsmen:** @charlestyrwhitt⁠ 💇‍♀️ **Hair:** @danafrancescahair⁠ 💄 **Make-up:** @laurencdavismakeup⁠ 🎂 **Cake:** @ohforheavenscakes_⁠ 🍽️ **Catering:** @sandkhospitality⁠ 🎶 **Entertainment:** @sweetvibe360 @lovelighters @zoealexandria⁠ 📷 **Photographer:** @juliaandyou⁠ 🎥 **Videographer:** @boutiquefilms⁠ ⁠ #HatfieldPlaceWedding #HatfieldPlace #WeddingAnniversary #EssexWeddingFlorist #EssexWeddingFlowers #WeddingFlowersEssex #EssexWedding #TimelessWedding #ClassicWeddingFlowers #WeddingFlorist #WeddingInspiration #WeddingSuppliers #WeddingFlowers #WeddingBudget⁠

✨ Three Years Married, Ella & Luke ✨⁠ ⁠ Three years ago today, Ella & Luke celebrated their wedding day at the beautiful @gaynespark and what a day it was! 🤍🥂⁠ ⁠ Having met back in 2016, the couple wanted their wedding to feel laid-back, classy and, most importantly, FUN.⁠ ⁠ Their vibe? “Perfectly mismatched.” A phrase they became rather fond of throughout the planning process and one that captured their day perfectly. ✨⁠ ⁠ Their dream was to be surrounded by all their favourite people, with cocktails flowing, garden games in full swing and, of course, getting ready to cut some serious shapes on the dancefloor! 🕺💃🥂⁠ ⁠ Three years on, we’re wishing this gorgeous couple the happiest anniversary and many more years of fun, laughter and perfectly mismatched adventures together. 🤍⁠ ⁠ Beautifully captured by the amazing @juliaandyou 📸⁠ ⁠ Happy Anniversary, Ella & Luke! 🥂✨⁠ ⁠ We love seeing Ella and her family every year at our Wreath making Workshops!⁠ ⁠ DRESS DESIGNER: @madilanebridal⁠ BRIDAL SHOP: @isabellagracebridal⁠ GROOMSMEN: Next⁠ HAIR: @ashleyograce_hair⁠ MAKE-UP: @gemmatutt_mua⁠ VENUE STYLING: @venuestylist⁠ ENTERTAINMENT: @dj_terry_j_lewis⁠ PHOTOGRAPHER: @juliaandyou⁠ OTHER: @whitevanweddingco - garden games ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠#HappyAnniversary #GaynesParkWedding #GaynesPark #EssexWeddingFlorist #EssexWeddingFlowers #WeddingInspiration #WeddingFlorist #LittleTinShedFlowers⁠ ⁠

This is exactly what we mean by timeless and classic. They looked stunning then, and four years on, they still look just as beautiful. 🤍🌿⁠ ⁠ And let’s not forget their very special groomsman… 🐶🤵🏼 This was before having dogs at weddings became such a thing, although, in their case, he wasn’t just a guest… he was part of the wedding party! 😂❤️⁠ ⁠ We also love their proposal story. James proposed to Grace on a private beach in Cornwall after paddleboarding - with the engagement ring safely tucked away in a bag on the paddleboard as they headed out to sea! 😳💍🌊⁠ ⁠ Thankfully, it all worked out perfectly… and look where it led!⁠ ⁠ Head over to our website to see more from this beautiful wedding at Gaynes Park.⁠ ⁠ 📷 Thank you to @daniellesmithphoto for capturing these gorgeous images.⁠ ⁠ The wonderful suppliers who helped bring their day together:⁠ ⁠ 👰🏼 **Dress:** Maggie Sottero⁠ 💍 **Bridal Shop:** Morgan Davies Hitchin⁠ 🤵🏼 **Groomsmen:** William Young 1876⁠ 💇🏼‍♀️ **Hair:** Phoebe Dichiara – The Six Hairdressing, Hertford⁠ 💄 **Make-up:** Lauren Buzzing⁠ ✨ **Bridal Accessories:** Morgan Davies⁠ 🎂 **Cake:** Emily Jane Cakes⁠ 🍽️ **Catering:** Gaynes Park⁠ 🌿 **Venue Styling:** Mediterranean Occasions Venue Stylist⁠ 🎶 **Entertainment:** The White Keys⁠ 📷 **Photographer:** Danielle Smith⁠ 🎥 **Videographer:** Ellis Gray Productions⁠ ⁠ Happy anniversary, Grace & James!
