About Quwavu
Crafting wedding bouquets in London since 2016
Our Story
Quwavu began in 2016 when florist Emma Richardson opened a small studio on Elmfield Road in London. After working with several event companies across the city, she noticed how often wedding bouquets felt generic. Couples wanted something personal, but most florists offered standard arrangements with limited customization.
Starting with just three local weddings that first year, we focused entirely on understanding what each couple actually wanted. Instead of presenting fixed packages, we asked about their venue, dress style, colour preferences, and even the flowers they remembered from childhood. This approach worked.
By 2018, we had arranged bouquets for 47 weddings across London and the Home Counties. Our team grew to include two additional florists, both trained in classical European techniques combined with contemporary British styling. We source flowers from New Covent Garden Market three times weekly, ensuring variety and freshness.
What We Do
We design and assemble wedding bouquets for ceremonies throughout London and surrounding areas. Each bouquet is made fresh within 24 hours of your wedding day. Our consultation process typically takes 45 minutes, during which we discuss your specific requirements, show you seasonal flower options, and create a design that fits your budget.
We work with British-grown flowers when seasonally available, supplemented by imported varieties for year-round choice. Our studio maintains controlled temperature storage, and we deliver bouquets in protective boxes designed to prevent damage during transport.
Our Approach
Consultation-Based Design
Every bouquet starts with a detailed conversation about your wedding style, venue requirements, and personal preferences.

We source flowers three times weekly from New Covent Garden Market, selecting stems based on quality and seasonal availability.
