Sourcing With Care

our flowers

At Hanako Flowers, we believe that the beauty of a wedding begins with the highest-quality blooms. That’s why we take great care in sourcing our flowers from trusted suppliers across the UK and around the world. Our commitment to quality, sustainability, and ethical sourcing ensures that every arrangement is as fresh and exquisite as possible.

Locally Grown, Seasonally Inspired

Whenever possible, we work with local growers in our area to source seasonal flowers. This allows us to provide our couples with the freshest blooms while supporting British flower farms. By choosing local flowers, we reduce transportation emissions, ensuring a more eco-friendly approach to floristry. 

Some of our favourite locally sourced flowers include:

  • Peonies in spring – Sourced from British farms during their short but stunning season.
  • Dahlias in late summer and autumn – Grown locally for rich colours and intricate textures.
  • Sweet peas and garden roses – Available in spring and early summer, providing soft, fragrant accents to bouquets.

By using flowers when they are naturally in season, we offer better quality, longer-lasting arrangements while embracing the beauty of each time of year.

Direct from the Dutch Auction House

For flowers that aren’t locally available, we source directly from the auction houses in Holland. The Netherlands is home to the world's most advanced flower markets, ensuring we have access to a vast selection of premium blooms year-round. 

The benefits of this direct sourcing include:

  • Unparalleled variety – From classic roses to exotic orchids, we can find almost any flower our couples dream of.
  • Exceptional freshness – Our flowers arrive quickly after being cut, ensuring they are at their peak beauty for your wedding.
  • Expert quality control – The Dutch flower markets uphold the highest standards, guaranteeing only the best blooms make it into our designs.

This efficient supply chain allows us to bring stunning, high-quality flowers from the heart of Europe straight to your wedding day.

UK Importers
& Exporters

We also work with UK-based suppliers who specialise in importing and exporting flowers from around the world. These suppliers provide us with unique varieties that might not be available locally or at the Dutch markets. 

By working with these experienced wholesalers, we can ensure:

  • A diverse selection of rare and specialty blooms.
  • A consistent supply of high-quality flowers even outside their traditional growing seasons.
  • A seamless logistics network that guarantees the freshest flowers delivered directly to us.

This network of suppliers helps us maintain a steady and reliable source of the finest flowers for weddings all year round.
