About Us
From Teaching to Floristry – A New Chapter
Julie’s Flower Boutique is a small, family-run business born out of a love for flowers, nature, and creativity. After retiring from a long career in teaching, Julie found herself drawn to the beauty of flowers—not just how they look, but what they mean. Flowers have a way of bringing people together, marking life’s moments, and brightening even the dullest of days. That’s what inspired her to start this business—to create something special, meaningful, and made with care.
A Family-Run Business, Through and Through
We’re not a big company, and we don’t want to be. It’s just Julie and her two kids, running everything between us. Julie’s the florist, the one carefully arranging every bouquet by hand. Her son takes care of the operations, making sure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes, while her daughter manages our social media, sharing our work and keeping in touch with customers.
We’re a proper local business, based right here in Bedford, delivering to Northamptonshire and Buckinghamshire. No faceless corporation, no mass-produced flowers—just real people who care about what we do.
What Makes Our Flowers Different?
We know you can grab a bunch of flowers from the supermarket—but we also know that our flowers are different.
🌿 Locally Sourced, Thoughtfully Designed – Our flowers are chosen with care, sourced locally when possible, and always arranged with a personal touch.
🌍 Eco-Conscious – We keep things simple and waste-free, using minimal, biodegradable packaging because we believe beautiful flowers shouldn’t come at the cost of the planet.
💌 Handwritten Cards – Every bouquet comes with a handwritten, hand-drawn card, adding that extra touch that makes a gift feel truly special.
💐 The Best Value We Can Offer – We’re a new business, and we’re doing everything we can to make our flowers affordable, high quality, and full of life. We’ve thought long and hard about how to bring the best flowers at the best price, without cutting corners.
More Than Just a One-Time Gift
The best feedback we’ve had so far? People love having our flowers in their homes. It’s not just about one big occasion—it’s about the simple joy of fresh flowers, day in and day out. That’s why so many of our customers have asked for a flower subscription, so they can enjoy beautiful seasonal blooms every month.
If you’re looking for a truly personal, beautifully arranged bouquet—whether for Mother’s Day, a special occasion, or just because—you’re in the right place.
Thanks for Supporting Local
Every order means the world to us. We’re a small business, and every bouquet we send out is made with care, love, and a real appreciation for the people who support us.
So, whether you’re treating someone special or just bringing a bit of beauty into your own home—thank you for being part of our journey.
🌸 Julie & Family
