Irish Wedding Florists, The Tangled Bramble:
Who I am and what I do?
“Hi my name is Ali and I am the owner and lead floral designer at The Tangled Bramble. We specialise in Weddings and Events and I am so passionate about what we do.
Because I love to chat to my couples and get a feel for their style and the theme of their wedding day. I then create the perfect designs from there. I create all the florals myself from the bridal bouquet right through to dressing the reception room. It will be just the way you imagined to make sure the same theme runs throughout the whole day!”
Where do I start when choosing a colour pallet for my wedding?
“When I meet with my couples to discuss their wedding flowers I always ask what colour they have picked for their bridesmaid. This is generally one of their favourite colours and the reason they have already picked it. So from there we want to pick flowers that will compliment the style and colour of their dresses.. Similar with the Brides dress you always want the bouquet to tie in and compliment the style of dress eg. A Boho/lace rustic style will work perfect with a loose, full foliage soft bouquet..
I would also encourage couples to work with the seasons colours there for the seasonal flowers will just work together perfectly.. Pastels and softer colours for spring/summer then late summer, autumn the colours start to darken, then heading towards dark forest greens, navy’s, burgundy for late autumn winter.
I also always say the bouquet is just an accessory so whatever you do go for make sure it complements your dress and style and doesn’t take from them..”

We offer both a design led or collaborative process depending on what the couple prefer. The best part of our job is zooming into the details. this is what makes their wedding different and translating that vision into a reality on their big day.”
What are some creative ideas for where I can use flowers in my ceremony and reception?
“We work with a wide inventory of pretty props. We are constantly updating props and styling these in a variety of ways. However, our favourite aspect of styling is incorporating natural elements like beautiful blooms and foliage to breathe life into spaces and bring the outdoors in. As well as bridal flowers, we also create floral center pieces and ceremony flowers; inspired by their overall style, colour palette and seasonality. Its great when flower loving couples ask for more creative ways too to surprise and delight your guests. For example using posies to signpost walkway to reception, single flowers on guests place settings and floral backdrops for a photo opportunity for guests. The options are endless, we always encourage couples to chat about all of their ideas and together we can create their perfect vision for the big day.”
