Joules was absolutely fantastic - the flowers were spectacular, she really listened to our requests (I was very specific about what sort of flowers I had envisaged) and she was lovely to deal with too. Thank you Joules! Would highly recommend!

I attended a dried flower workshop that was hosted by Joules at willow and thyme! What can I say we had a fantastic day and walked away with an amazing wreath at the end of it. Joules is so lovely and a fantastic character who was there to give her expertise along the way! Would highly recommend attending one of her workshops ps the homemade soup was scrumptious

(Writing from my husbands account)
Joules is by far one of the most talented women I have ever met, the flowers she arranged for our wedding in October last year were breathtaking. Pre covid when we were first looking for a florist, I spoke with Joules on the phone and knew instantly that she was the florist for us, she was so passionate about her job and excited on our behalf. We went round to her house for coffee and worked through a plan together, she made us feel so at home and so relaxed. And although our plan changed god knows how many times due to covid, Joules was by our side at every

Cannot recommend Joules at Willow and Thyme enough. She was just excellent during quite a stressful time (a wedding under Covid restrictions). She was so supportive and the flowers were just beautiful.

When we booked our wedding, flowers was the top of my list of things to sort. I was lucky to find Joules online, after looking at photos and reading reviews I knew she was the florist for me!
Joules was lovely and patient. After throwing hundreds of photos her way at meetings (and emails in between!) being totally indecisive - she got it and completely nailed it. My bouquet was so beautiful, I didnt want to put it down! The centrepieces, bridesmaid bouquets, button holes and hanging foliage hoops were all stunning, everyone was full of compliments on the day. I just wish we could do it all
