The White Orchid: Live the Beautiful Life
Renowned Surrey florist The White Orchid, bronze medal winner of ‘The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee 2012’ at Hampton Court Flower Show, has announced the opening of The White Orchid Living. Encapsulating the company’s philosophy of ‘Live the beautiful life’.
The new space offers a creative, inspirational environment for sourcing unusual decor accessories for weddings, the home and garden, as well as a beautiful, intimate venue for small weddings, floral workshops and celebrations.
Tucked away behind The White Orchid’s florist boutique in the heart of Weybridge, the space provides a welcoming sanctuary brimming with beautiful decorative accessories, furniture and treasured gifts.
The collections reflect today’s trend for up-cycling, incorporating vintage French furniture sourced from antique markets, alongside an eclectic collection of tableware, votives, candlesticks, cake stands, frames, mirrors, artwork and paper products.


A haven for style-savvy brides looking to put a personal stamp on their wedding day with unique decorative touches and distinctive floral arrangements, The White Orchid Living is a shopping sanctuary that oozes understated style and charm.
Further enhancing its reputation for excellence in floristry for special occasions and celebrations, the store will play host to frequent workshops and courses. Perfect for chic hen parties and DIY brides, half-day classes will offer brides and their maids the chance to learn the art of flower arranging.
Four-week professional courses will also be offered for those looking to embark on a new career, led by The White Orchid’s owner Nicole Liew who has more than 10 years experience in floristry. On select dates throughout the year, The White Orchid Living is also available as a venue for intimate weddings and celebrations.


With its white-washed walls and rustic decor interspersed with vintage French chandeliers, it’s the ideal venue for small, stylish celebrations. As the new must-visit lifestyle destination, The White Orchid Living incorporates a small kitchen providing light refreshments for breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea.
Sourced from local suppliers who use organic and fair trade ingredients in their products, the menu features a selection of delicious seasonal cakes and patisseries, and hot and cold beverages.
