Good Morning Sally

Re: Wedding at Selborne Church

Your help, attention to detail, the beautiful flowers and the excellent delivery service were all faultless.  Suffice to say, my task of ‘doing’ the wedding flowers for my son and future daughter in law  would not have been achievable without the help and expertise of Nursery Fresh;  I cannot thank you all enough.

If there are any photos from the wedding that I think might be of interest to you I will make sure you get a copy.  Your flowers were a joy to work with and they lasted amazingly well through the various car journeys and treatments they had to endure; and whilst my arrangements would never have won prizes in a floral decoration class, they looked at home for a country wedding and were hugely appreciated by the bride and her mother.

I am very grateful to you Sally. May your business go from strength to strength – it certainly deserves to do so.

Kind regards and best wishes.
