a few words from the team
Charlotte
I have been a florist for some 20 years now. I think that I can honestly say its a real pleasure to be part of The Blacksmiths Daughter. When I moved to Petersfield 13 years ago, I remember so well walking into this amazing flower shop and thinking ‘THIS is where I want to work’ – and have now been here 12 years – is it that long!!. A part of my job which I love is working closely with Krissi on the weddings - usually one or more a week! She is so good at listening to the Brides and interpreting their ideas, that I am then able to create the perfect bouquet or arrangement for them.
Olivia
I have worked for Krissi for 11 years as part of the dedicated and passionate team. With the high quality and wide range of superb flowers, my artistic talents are allowed to flourish and progress thus creating the most wonderful arrangements for our clients, many of whom we have got to know well over the years. This has enabled me to emphatise and interpret their wants and needs.
Barbara
I started work here after completing a 2 year Floristry course at Sparshalt, and I just love being part of a team that is passionate and committed to beauty and creativity. I love the richness of colours and textures of all the fabulous flowers and plants that Krissi buys from Covent Garden Flower Market and direct from the Dutch Auctions. Its a great feeling to put these flowers together in a bouquet that says ‘I Love You’or ‘I'm Sorry’ . However, I think the thing that I love most about working here is the complete uniqueness of everything that leaves the shop.
dearly beloved....

what you think...
Thank you so much for providing such beautiful flowers for our wedding. The bouquets were exactly what I had hoped they would be, the buttonholes and corsages fantastic - the table arrangements, perfect! The cake top and cake table were even better than I had expected. You really made our wedding look so very special. Krissi, thank you for being so patient with a Bride who had no idea what she was doing! Your hard work is so appreciated and your contribution to our day made such a huge difference. Thank You!
Sarah and Matt Fennell
I just wanted to say thank you SO much for your amazing service! I absolutely loved the flower arrangements you used for our wedding. They were well beyond my wildest dreams and hopes for the colours, the blues were exquisite, the purples and pinks worked so well and everything was just PERFECT!!! The table centres in the martini vases were fantastic, everyone was commenting on them and couldn't wait to take them home with them! My bouquet was so beautiful, absolutely stunning, have set my Mum the task of drying it so I can keep it forever! The Bridesmaids bouquets worked perfectly with their different coloured dresses and so created the look I was after! I know I was very specific and maybe a little difficult with wanting lots of colours, but you made it work and it totally paid off! Thank you for working with me in order to create the perfect day!
