Our Story..

Duchess & Ivy Floral Design was born out of a passion for luxury and a keen, creative eye for detail.  

Having spent 15 years working in the world of 5-star global hospitality and hotels.  While creating unforgettable experiences for clients we had always been drawn to the beauty of fresh flowers at weddings and events, but also understood the very heavy price tag that came along with them.

So, in September 2023, after spotting a gap in the market for high-quality, affordable faux floral decor, “Duchess & Ivy Floral Design” was launched.

Drawing on years of experience working with high-end suppliers and vendors within the hotel industry, the highest quality faux florals were sourced to create our very own brand of stunning floral arrangements that exude both realism and elegance.

At Duchess & Ivy each floral arrangement is meticulously crafted by hand to ensure the most realistic appearance and aesthetic possible.

Understanding the demands of busy clients, and couples planning their weddings, we decided to launch our luxury collections on a rental basis, providing a cost-effective solution for those wanting to add a touch of opulence to their special occasions. We include delivery, full installation plus collection - making it a streamlined, hassle-free process for our busy clients.

While mastering the art of creating stunningly realistic faux floral arrangements, and being a perfectionist at heart, there was the feeling that something was still missing. Despite their lifelike appearance, Duchess & Ivy’s artificial florals lacked that one special touch that only real flowers could provide - a fragrance!

Determined to elevate our luxury floral collections to the next level, we embarked on a new challenge - this time creating our own brand of Faux Floral Fragrance. A signature scent that has been meticulously crafted to complement our floral collections.

Our signature scent is a luxurious blend of Moroccan Rose Petals, Oud, and Patchouli, exuding rich floral tones that bring our arrangements to life.

With a simple spritz directly onto faux florals, the room is immediately filled with the aroma of fresh flowers. Guests are transported to a garden in full bloom, enveloped in the delicate fragrance of roses and exotic woods.

This innovative solution adds an extra layer of to our creations in the world of luxury event decor.

Duchess & Ivy Floral Design understands the significant environmental impact of fresh floral arrangements that often go to waste after just one event. By opting for high-quality faux florals, Duchess & Ivy Floral Design is able to offer a sustainable solution that not only reduces floral waste but also minimises the carbon footprint associated with the production and transportation of fresh flowers.

Our faux florals can be reused time and time again, providing a long-lasting and eco-friendly alternative to traditional floral decor setting a new standard for luxury event decor - that is both beautiful and sustainable.

Duchess & Ivy Floral Design is fast becoming the go-to choice for those seeking affordable wedding and event aesthetics - without compromising on either style or quality.
