Ahead of the crowd when it comes to chic and sustainable preserved flowers, The Parsons Wreath Company is a truly special Norfolk family business run by mother and daughter, Lesley and Katie, with flowers grown on their family land in Parson Drove. 

A graduate of London College of Fashion, Katie brings a modern, creative approach to a business that’s notched up more than 30 years’ experience making dried floral wreaths.

The fashion-forward, artful arrangements, ranging from bouquets and wreaths to installations and event flowers, are crafted from eco-conscious dried blooms, often enhanced with fresh seasonal flowers plucked from the garden.

If you love a relaxed workshop, especially one followed by an afternoon tea, we highly rate those run by Katie and Lesley at various Norfolk venues including the wonderful setting of Congham Hall. 

Planning a wedding? The Parsons Wreath Co offers a fantastic choice online of ready to buy bouquets, crowns, buttonholes, corsages and hair combs – and can craft you a table centrepiece to match.

Wreaths and bouquets are among the lovely items in their Sandringham range, which you can purchase directly from the gift shop on the Royal Estate. They’ve clearly turned heads there, having been commissioned to create a shop display for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and an outdoor installation for Sandringham in Bloom in 2023.

Beautiful flowers with a sustainable ethos – undoubtedly Charles approves!
