Pearl Preece
“Flowers have been part of my life for as long as I can remember.”
I began my career working alongside my Mum in a local florist before moving into the world of funeral floristry, creating heartfelt tributes for families during some of life’s most difficult moments.
Those early years taught me that flowers aren’t simply beautiful – they tell stories, express love and say the things words sometimes can’t.
From there my career took me to London, where I worked for Moyses Stevens within Harrods before joining a prestigious florist in Notting Hill.
It was an incredible time, creating flowers for clients from all walks of life, including many well-known names, and producing everything from elegant hand-tied bouquets to spectacular large-scale installations.
Some of the highlights included designing a bespoke arrangement for Ozzy Osbourne’s mother, creating a £500 floral display featuring dozens of orchids and twelve blocks of floral foam, and helping prepare the magnificent floral displays for Kensington Palace Gardens as part of a long-standing contract.
Today, Pearl & Bloom brings together every part of that journey.
After getting married, I relocated to Ledbury, where I worked alongside my husband, a funeral director, helping to support three funeral homes across Herefordshire.
It was another chapter that deepened my appreciation for the comfort and meaning flowers bring to life’s most significant moments.
Life eventually brought me to Cheltenham, where I later spent several years working for the NHS before returning to what has always felt like home – floristry.
Most recently, I’ve spent over two years as the on-site florist at Morrisons in Cheltenham, serving hundreds of local customers and creating everything from everyday bouquets to bespoke wedding flowers and funeral tributes.
“I’d be delighted to create something just for you”
From luxury London floristry to family funeral flowers, from intimate bouquets to large installations, I’ve been fortunate enough to work in many different settings and with many different styles.
That experience means no two designs are ever the same, because no two customers are.
Whether you’re celebrating, remembering someone special or simply bringing a little beauty into your home, every arrangement is created with care, attention to detail and a genuine love of flowers.
“There are always flowers for those who want to see them.”
