Profile

"Renowned for his dramatic floral installations and eye for colours and details, Simon Nickell is one of the most revered and watched florists in the UK, setting and predicting trends". 

 

Formally trained but never a fan of formality, I've been a florist for 35 years. The breathtaking setting of my home county of Cornwall inspired my floral career at the age of 19, and has influenced my love of the English herbaceous style ever since. 

Having been told that I needed to be taken in hand by a wild London florist, I made the move in 1994 to work with some of the Capital's leading floral designers. During those early days I was told that I had the potential to become a virtuoso. I hope I’ve loved up to that wonderful compliment!

Weddings are what I love to do, and I flower my way across Cornwall Devon, letting the flowers take centre stage. I'm passionate about the floral industry, and the beauty of the seasons inspires me on a daily basis.

In addition to weddings, I’m also the in house florist at Hotel Endsleigh, owned by Olga Polizzi where I’m lucky enough to fill the house with flowers from the glorious gardens nestled deep in the Tamar valley. If you’re ever there and see a vase of flowers walking round the house, do come and say hello!

If you'd like to discuss your wedding or event flowers, please do get in touch.
