Our Story
At Holly and the Dragonfly, we—Holly and Laura—have built our brand around the incredible power of flowers to inspire, energise, and transform.
I’m Holly, and for me, flowers are all about uplifting energy and a beautiful escape from the everyday. When life gets overwhelming, I’ve found that flowers offer a vibrant, refreshing break—a way to recharge my spirit and fill my world with positivity. They’re not just pretty to look at; they’re a lifeline, bringing a burst of colour and life that helps me step out of the mundane and into something extraordinary. If you’re like me and crave that sense of escape and energy, you’ll understand the magic that flowers bring into our lives.
And then there’s Laura—she’s the dragonfly in our story. Laura believes heartily in transformation and renewal. Growing up, her family experienced the loss of a very dear family member, and whilst young she was deeply moved by the story “Water bugs & Dragonflies,” where a simple water bug transforms into a beautiful dragonfly and soars into a brighter world above.
This story has stuck with her, shaping how she sees life as a series of beautiful transformations. Laura believes that just like the dragonfly, we’re all on a journey of change and growth, and flowers are a perfect reflection of that. They remind us that everything has a moment in time & a season and to see the beauty in our own transformations and the possibilities that come with embracing change.
Together, we’ve created Holly and the Dragonfly to share this passion for flowers & life with you. Our floral designs aren’t just about arranging flowers—they’re about capturing the spirit of escape, the energy that fuels us, and the transformations that shape who we are.
Flowers, for us, are a way to mark the most significant of occasions, to enhance the moments that will become some of your most cherished & treasured memories,; allowing the vividness of those perfect moments to live on in your thoughts for a life time.
It goes without saying that we are an inclusive business and always proud to work with the LGBTQIA+ community - after all we believe that ALL LOVE IS LOVE.

Our Ethos
Celebrating
INDIVIDUALITY - SUSTAINABILITY - JOY
We believe your flowers should feel as personal and unforgettable as the love they celebrate.
Our approach is collaborative, guiding you to craft designs that reflect the heart of who you are — as an individual or as a couple — and capture the moments your guests will remember. Every bloom, every texture, every flourish is chosen to tell your story beautifully and authentically.
Rooted in respect for nature and taste, we operate entirely floral foam free, sourcing from local British growers wherever possible. This allows us to create florals that are not only sustainable but utterly unique — arrangements that feel effortless, wild, and perfectly matched to your day.
Above all, we’re here to make the process as joyful and inspiring as the flowers themselves. From the first ideas to the final arrangements, we bring energy, honesty, and excitement to every step — often getting just as thrilled about your wedding or event as you are, and championing your choices every step of the way.
