A quick note about Coronavirus....
Hi everyone,
Liza here. I hope you're all ok - this truly is a surreal time for all of us. I just wanted to check in with you all and chat briefly about the COVID-19 pandemic.
I obviously don't want to cause any additional stress to you, but as this is the reality we're facing for the next few weeks and possibly months, I'd like to just talk about it briefly in relation to your wedding flower orders.
Over the coming weeks, there is a strong possibility that your venue or church (or both) may impose restrictions which result in weddings being cancelled or postponed. Unfortunately, this is already the reality for some of you, and postponements are happening as venues close in the interests of staff welfare and public safety.
If you find yourself in this position, please let me know as soon as you can, and your deposit can be transferred to a new date where possible. The sooner you let me know, the better the chance that I will be able to accommodate you. If I can't, I will do my best to help you find another florist for your date.
I am also in contact with my wholesaler and other suppliers regarding the supply chain and importation of flowers from Holland and other regions. At the moment everything is ok, but if there is any interruption to the supply of flowers and foliage, it may not be possible to fulfil your order exactly as promised. In this event, I will do my utmost to find suitable alternatives - either alternative flower species, alternative sources (including local growers), or possibly using some silk flowers if fresh flowers are unavailable.
If I find myself in a position where I or my family members need to self-isolate, there is the possibility that I may need to cancel your order. This decision will not be taken lightly, and will only be done as a last resort after all other options are considered.
The last thing I want to do is leave any of you down on your special day, but it is really important that we all keep each other safe and healthy, exercise sensible hygiene, and minimise spread.If you haven't booked me yet for late 2020/2021 but you plan to, please do get in touch and let me know, as it is likely that it will get busy later this year if current bookings are re-scheduled. If any of you have any concerns at all, or you just want to have a chat, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Look after yourselves and your loved ones, and I hope to see you all again in happier times.
All the best,
Liza
