Sustainable Wedding Florist in Scotland
Founded in 2015, Tupelo Tree specialises in creating immersive, nature-inspired floral designs rooted in Scottish landscapes. Our journey began with a passion for photography and a serendipitous transition into floristry, where we discovered our niche in wild, foraged, and woodland-themed weddings. We prioritise sustainability by sourcing locally grown flowers, avoiding plastics, and offsetting carbon emissions through tree planting initiatives. Our team, consisting of Natasha and Ebony, combines expertise in floristry, photography, and illustration to craft bespoke ceremonies that bring the outdoors indoors. We collaborate with local makers and donate to environmental causes like the Woodland Trust, ensuring our practices protect ancient woodlands.Every design, from towering canopies to delicate bouquets, reflects our deep connection to Scotland's natural beauty. We embrace mindful foraging techniques, using fallen branches and promoting healthy plant growth when harvesting. Our work extends beyond weddings to include sustainable illustration artwork and photography, all united by a love for wild, green spaces. With years of hands-on experience, we blend creativity and environmental responsibility to deliver unique, eco-conscious floral solutions.

Wedding Flowers
We create bespoke wedding floral arrangements inspired by Scottish woodlands. Using foraged materials and seasonal blooms, our designs frame ceremonies in natural beauty. Our expertise ensures each creation complements venue architecture and personal styles while maintaining sustainability through eco-friendly materials and local sourcing.
Foraged Floristry
Our specialists gather natural elements from Scottish forests to craft unique floral compositions. We prioritise fallen branches and responsibly harvested plants to create textured arrangements that showcase regional biodiversity. This approach minimises environmental impact while delivering distinctive, location-specific designs that celebrate seasonal changes.
Sustainable Arrangements
We design environmentally conscious floral displays using biodegradable materials and locally grown flowers. Our process eliminates plastic waste and floral foam while maintaining visual impact. By partnering with Scottish growers and recycling materials post-event, we ensure minimal ecological footprint without compromising on creative expression.
