Wild Blossoms Floral Co
About
Overview & Vibe
Wild Blossoms Floral Co is Tané, whose name means “goddess of the forest” in Tahitian and who grew up on the Mid North Coast at Sawtell. She traces the whole thing to a family of growers, merchants and makers going back generations. The studio is on Chestnut Road in Port Macquarie.
Style & Signature Blooms
Lush and colour-led. “Design and color have always been an obsession of mine. The interplay of hues, textures, and tones fascinates me. I’ve always believed there are no strict rules in design – only what feels right in the moment.” The published month-by-month bloom list runs from waratah, king protea, flannel flower and kangaroo paw through to peonies, ranunculus, David Austin roses and hellebores.
Ideal For
A destination wedding on the Mid North Coast, and specifically one where the installation is the point. It specialises in “ceremony feature installations, stunning receptions, including ceiling installations and bridal table features – think floral clouds elegantly floating above your bridal table.” Its own summary of the job is a good one: “We show up on time, we make the magic happen and we disappear like we were never there!”
The Need-to-Knows
It publishes what three budgets actually buy. covers bridal party florals, a simple statement arbour with aisle flowers, guest-table centrepieces and a bridal-table feature, plus hire pieces. adds plinths or urns, table garlands and an installation over the bridal table or dance floor, with accents for the cake, signage and bar. is multiple statement installations, flower-lined aisles, suspended florals and styling through staircases and entryways. The studio trades 8.30am–1.30pm weekdays and 9am–1pm Saturday.
Standout Feature
A month-by-month bloom guide, not a seasonal one. Most florists that publish availability split the year into four; this one names what is available in each of the twelve months plus a year-round list, and is honest about the limits: “mother nature is unpredictable, every season is different and that’s what makes it so exquisite, so nothing is ever guaranteed.”
