About
Haze Lea is a floral design business run by myself, Katherine, based in Witney and providing flowers for weddings and events throughout the Cotswolds, Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire and beyond.
With an elegant take on natural beauty my floristry style is wild, organic, natural and romantic - letting nature speak for itself.
With 10 years as a florist under my belt, I broke away for a period of travelling and getting lost somewhere between the ocean and mountains. I returned to the UK with a passion for all things mother nature and after refining my skills at McQueen’s flower school in London, I decided that the time was right to follow my heart.
Haze Lea was created out of a newly found need to unite my passions for design, nature, and the beauty behind people’s expressions and moments.
I love: textural berries, trailing vines, twisted hazel and all things perfectly imperfect. Life is about balance…. the tamed and the untamed and I find happiness in finding this balance in nature and my work.
The Environment
A subject I feel very strongly about!
Wherever possible I reduce, reuse and recycle! Flowers are such a beautifully natural product and with a respect to the environment that they come from and we live in my arrangements are predominantly designed into water, avoiding the use of floral foam and ensuring the environmental impact of your event is minimised. However sometimes there is just no other option, in such cases I opt for the biodegradable version.
All packaging sent out is either compostable and/or biodegradable and made from recycled materials (all flower bags and boxes are created from recycled and recyclable card, and the plastic water bags are made from cellulose based bio-film which is fully compostable. All our green waste is also composted.
Aaaand... because trees are a bit of a big deal, we sponsor the planting of 1 tree for every 4 events booked! Each tree planted offsets 1 tonne of carbon....Every little helps!
Seasonal and Local
I work closely with seasonal availability to make sure your flowers are the most beautiful they can possibly be. Sourcing the best seasonal flowers from carefully selected British growers and suppliers, many local. Seasonality and provenance are very important to me so I prefer to use flowers and foliage naturally available at their peak of perfection rather than sourcing from the world markets where possible.
