Balloons & Flowers
An elegant birthday bouquet and balloon arrangement sits in gentle natural light, reminiscent of a cheerful front room in Longford on a sunny afternoon. The focal point is a tall, clear glass cylinder vase filled with a lush mix of pink blooms. Bold fuchsia gerbera daisies stand proudly at the center, their broad petals framing dark, almost black centers that lend drama and depth. Around them, pastel and mid-pink roses cluster in varying stages of bloom, from tightly furled buds to half-open blossoms that suggest sweetness and celebration. Threaded delicately between the larger flowers are fine clusters of deep purple filler, likely statice, bringing texture and a cool contrast to the warm pinks. Abundant greenery spills and fans around the arrangement, with fresh green leaves creating a soft, rounded silhouette and adding that just-cut-from-the-market feeling you might find near Longford's local shops. The base of the bouquet is wrapped in a soft cloud of translucent pink cellophane or tissue, the crinkles catching the light and giving a sense of handcrafted care. A piece of rustic twine is tied neatly around the neck of the vase, holding a small off-white tag printed with a subtle rose motif emblem, signalling a premium floral gift that has been chosen with thought. To the right and slightly in front of the vase, a shiny round Mylar balloon completes the birthday story. Its white background, dusted with gentle grey speckles, is sprinkled with whimsical, colourful floral and circular designs in bright yellow, turquoise blue, lime green, hot pink, and purple. Across its center, the words "happy birthday" are written in carefree pink script. The softly blurred indoor background keeps the focus entirely on the bouquet and balloon, evoking the joy of a surprise birthday delivery anywhere across Longford and its surrounding streets.
SORBET & BALLOON
£73.00
Bathed in soft, even light, this birthday bouquet reads as both elegant and joyfully informal-the sort of arrangement a Longford floristry studio might create for a neighbour's milestone celebration. At its heart are fully opened pink roses whose layered petals shift from pale blush to deeper pink, offering a tactile velvetiness when admired up close. Surrounding them, large pale-pink Gerbera daisies present their broad, ray-like petals and cream-yellow centres like friendly faces, while sprigs of vivid purple statice or limonium weave between stems, their textured, papery clusters introducing contrast and visual rhythm. Small white spray blooms, possibly alstroemeria or spray carnations, lend pockets of brightness and softness, and a generous sweep of deep green, glossy foliage grounds the design and adds a cool, leaf-scented backdrop. The bouquet is arranged in a clear glass vase with a slightly flared base so the water and the emerald stems are visible, communicating freshness and careful preparation. A cheerful, cake-shaped foil balloon sits to the right, its white frosted look, blue icing border, and scattered red, yellow, green and blue sprinkles making the display unmistakably festive; four multicoloured candles with yellow flame tips and the words 'Happy Birthday' in playful coloured letters finish the scene, with a small KALEIDOSCOPE mark at the bottom. This image conveys a polished yet warm birthday gift ideal for delivery across Longford's High Street, local parks, or a doorstep surprise.
PINK DAZE & BIRTHDAY BALLOON
£70.00
In this studio-style image, a lush arrangement of gerbera daisies stands upright in a slender glass vase, creating a lively burst of colour against the white background. Around a dozen daisy heads in saturated yellow, bright tangerine orange, and deep magenta fan outwards, each with its hallmark dark centre that provides striking contrast. The petals radiate evenly from the middle, giving the flowers a neat, graphic quality that draws attention. Interspersed among the blooms, fresh green leaves add volume and a slightly wild, garden-inspired touch, as if the bouquet could have been gathered from borders in a Longford cottage garden on a sunny morning. The hand-tied stems are swathed in a layer of light brown kraft paper, its rustic feel adding warmth and informality. This is covered with a protective skin of transparent cellophane that gently reflects surrounding light, emphasising the bouquet's freshness. A length of natural-coloured twine cinches the stems together in a modest bow, underscoring the handcrafted character Longford Florist is known for in the local area. The vase below is simple and clear, filled with water that showcases the green stems aligned gracefully inside. Off to the lower right, a white helium balloon brings a note of celebration. Its surface is dotted with playful confetti-like spots and tiny hearts in metallic gold and different shades of pink and orange. At the centre of the balloon, flowing pink script spells out "best Mum," instantly framing the bouquet as a loving gesture for Mother's Day, a special birthday, or any occasion when someone in Longford wants to honour a mother or mother figure with something cheerful and heartfelt.
SUNNY GARDEN & MUM BALLOON
£65.00
This image features a radiant "Mum to Be" bouquet, photographed against a simple white backdrop so every petal and detail stands out clearly. Dominating the arrangement are striking fuchsia gerbera daisies, their wide, daisy-like faces and deep, dark centres giving a sense of lively celebration. Threaded between them are roses in shades of blush and baby pink, some still in tight bud form and others beginning to unfurl into layered spirals, suggesting the gradual unfolding of a new chapter. Small clusters of purple filler flowers, probably statice or limonium, appear like delicate clouds of colour nestled between the larger blooms, lending a cool lilac touch and extra texture. The flowers are framed by a mix of lush green foliage, with both slim, elongated leaves and wider, glossy leaves, creating a structured, domed bouquet that feels generous and balanced. The stems are wrapped in coordinated layers of pink tissue paper, forming a soft, ruffled collar around the base, then enclosed in a shiny layer of clear cellophane that reflects the light and underscores the sense of a special gift. Positioned neatly at the front of the bouquet's base is a round foil balloon in bright pink, edged with a subtle scallop and sprinkled with cheerful white polka dots. Across its surface, flowing white script spells out "Mum to Be!" with a tiny heart tucked between the words to highlight the loving sentiment. This bouquet feels perfectly suited for a baby shower or pregnancy announcement in Longford, perhaps delivered to a home near local shops or a quiet residential street off the main road, bringing colour, joy, and a shared sense of excitement.
MUM TO BE
£60.00
This gentle, celebratory arrangement for a new baby girl is shown against a simple white background, allowing every detail of the flowers and balloon to stand out clearly. In the centre, a lush bouquet rises from a tall, pastel pink gift box, the soft tone echoing the sweetness of the occasion. A bright pink gerbera daisy forms the heart of the design, its velvety petals radiating outwards in neat layers, creating a cheerful focal point. It is nestled among fluffy white chrysanthemums whose many fine petals give a soft, calming texture, like little cushions cradling the brighter blooms. Light pink and white alstroemeria lilies, decorated with subtle speckles, add elegance as their slender petals and arching stems introduce movement and height. A creamy yellow lily bud peeks out from the upper part of the bouquet, still closed and full of promise, much like the early days of a newborn's life. Between the larger flowers, vivid lime-green button-style blooms and clusters of glossy deep red hypericum berries add contrast and interest. Dark green leaves and delicate fern fronds spill slightly over the edge of the arrangement, creating a full, balanced silhouette that feels freshly gathered, as if from a garden near Longford Park. The bouquet is wrapped in a soft cocoon of pale pink tissue and clear cellophane, which catch and reflect the light, then nestled neatly into the pink box ready for same-day delivery throughout Longford and nearby areas. To the right, a playful foil balloon in the shape of a baby pram completes the scene. Its hot pink body, purple hood, and purple wheels with colourful spokes harmonise with the flowers, while bright yellow and green "It's a Girl!" lettering, highlighted with tiny hearts, clearly celebrates the arrival of a baby daughter.
NOTHING LIKE PINK & BABY GIRL BALLOON
£60.00
A celebratory bouquet artfully composed for the arrival of a baby boy: at its centre, pristine white roses and elegant lilies-some with creamy buds just opening-combine with abundant white spray chrysanthemums to form a soft, classic foundation. Interwoven are striking electric-blue chrysanthemums and clusters of small lavender-blue hyacinth-like blooms that add playful texture and a modern pop of colour. The arrangement is presented in a deep royal blue box, the matte finish giving a refined, gift-ready presence that complements the blue accents throughout. Lush greenery, from broad glossy leaves to delicate fern fronds, frames the flowers and lifts their scent, a cool, green perfume reminiscent of a spring morning. The bouquet is wrapped in slightly crinkled cream tissue that gathers at the base, catching the light and reinforcing the handcrafted feel. A light-blue foil pram-shaped balloon floats alongside, detailed with darker-blue trim, patterned wheels and the words It's a Boy in bright yellow-green lettering, dotted with small hearts and polka dots-an unmistakable announcement of joy. This composition radiates tenderness and celebration, ideal for presenting at a Longford baby shower, greeting new parents at the hospital, or placing in a nursery window. The arrangement's balance of serene whites, fresh greens and bold blues creates a peaceful yet jubilant tribute to new life in the Longford community.
SEA PEARL & BABY BOY BALLOON
£67.00
This image showcases a warm and uplifting Father's Day gift set, as if it has just been arranged on the counter at Longford Florist before heading out for same-day delivery. The background is a clean, uninterrupted white, which makes the colours of the bouquet and balloon seem even more vivid. In the left and central part of the frame sits a hand-tied hydrangea bouquet, lush and rounded. At the centre, creamy white hydrangea blooms form a soft, pillowy core, the countless tiny petals overlapping like ruffled fabric. Around them, cool light-blue hydrangeas bring in a feeling of calm and gratitude, echoing the quiet strength often associated with fatherhood. Accents of lime-green hydrangeas appear along the lower and right edges, their bright, zesty colour lending a modern, energetic note to the design. Interwoven among the blooms, elegant stems of silvery eucalyptus and rich, dark green foliage create depth and texture, as if the bouquet carries a breath of fresh, herbal scent across a Longford living room. The straight green stems are gathered neatly at the base, bound together in the manner of a professional hand-tie ready to be presented in person or delivered across the local area. To the lower right, partly overlapping the flowers, a shiny, circular foil balloon adds a playful touch. Its centre is crisp white, framed at the top and bottom with bold black-and-white stripes. In the middle, the words "For the BEST DAD EVER!" appear in lively lettering, with "BEST" and "DAD" picked out in patterned reds, greens, teals, and black polka dots. A tiny "No. 1" rosette symbol and scattered stars and confetti specks complete the scene, evoking the joy of children surprising their dad and turning this floral design into a complete celebration.
BEST DAD EVER EUPHORIA
£70.00
A carefully crafted floral gift, arranged with the confidence of a neighbourhood florist and photographed on a crisp white field to let every colour sing. The bouquet centres on large, peachy-orange roses whose petals curve outward in layered spirals, exuding a soft, classic rose scent. Scattered among them, vivid yellow gerbera daisies with dark brown centers add cheer and open faces that catch the eye, while deep maroon carnations lend plush volume and a velvety contrast to the palette. White alstroemeria, petalled and freckled, weave through the arrangement like fine brushstrokes, introducing lightness and delicate fragrance. Lush green foliage - a mix of broad glossy leaves and slender textured stems - cushions the flowers and brings a fresh, leafy undertone. All of this is composed in a simple clear glass vase; the clean water and visible stems underscore the arrangement's freshness and artisan handling. To the bottom right, overlapping the vase slightly, a round white foil balloon punctuates the scene, dotted with gold and hot-pink polka spots and tiny hearts; the centre bears the cursive message "best Mum" in lively fuchsia script, immediately signaling the gift's affectionate purpose. There is a gentle, homely feeling to the composition, as if prepared for delivery to a favourite address on the Longford High Street or a cosy family home near the town's market. The bouquet reads as both celebratory and personal - a floral embrace meant to honour and uplift a mum on her special day.
BEST MUM AWARD
£65.00
A thoughtfully styled 'Good Luck' gift ensemble photographed on a crisp white background - a full glass vase of freshly arranged blooms on the left and a bright, round Mylar balloon to the right, partly overlapping the bouquet. The vase is clear and simple, tied with rustic twine that hints at an artisanal touch. The arrangement features soft peach and powder pink roses with layered, velvety petals, paired with peach-orange Gerbera daisies whose darker brown centres provide a flattering contrast. Sprays of delicate white gypsophila thread through the composition like fine lace, and clusters of small white and lime-green chrysanthemum florets contribute a lively, textured counterpoint. Rich green foliage frames the flowers, adding depth and structure while keeping the palette fresh and grounded.

The silver metallic balloon prominently declares Good Luck! in big, buoyant multi-coloured letters; playful decorative shapes - blue and pink hearts, yellow and blue stars, and tiny orange and green cross-like motifs - dance across its surface. The letters for Good include two yellow smiley faces in place of the o's, one cheekily winking and the other sticking its tongue out, giving it a friendly, encouraging personality. A small KALEIDOSCOPE mark is visible at the bottom of the balloon. This composition, suitable for sending from Longford Florist in Longford town near St. Mel's Cathedral or for delivery across the county, feels like a pocket of sunshine designed to buoy someone facing exams, a new job, or a farewell - scented, textured, and full of optimism.
GOOD LUCK COMBO
£60.00
A sophisticated silver anniversary arrangement is displayed here, the kind of thoughtfully balanced design a couple in Longford might receive to mark twenty-five years together. Dominating the left side of the image is a generous hand-tied bouquet, dense with white chrysanthemum daisies. Each daisy-like bloom carries a bright yellow centre, ringed by layers of slender, clean white petals that create a soft, rounded silhouette. The abundance of these flowers gives the bouquet a friendly, open character, like a chorus of small, luminous faces. Interspersed among them are tall white lily buds, their smooth, elongated forms adding elegance and height. These buds remain mostly closed, edges touched with pale green, hinting at the fragrance that will emerge once they open in a Longford living room or dining space. Wispy touches of baby's breath are woven throughout, their airy clouds of minute white blossoms providing a gentle veil over the larger flowers and softening any sharp lines. Rich, dark green foliage surrounds and supports the blooms, its leaves strong and slightly glossy, grounding the arrangement with natural depth. The bouquet is carefully wrapped in a protective layer of clear cellophane, then finished with an outer wrapping of brown kraft paper, folded and gathered neatly at the base in a style that feels both rustic and refined, as if carried by hand down a quiet Longford street. To the right, a single round silver foil balloon rests, its polished surface reflecting the light in subtle ripples. The balloon is embellished with ornate scrolling patterns and delicate floral motifs in darker silver. At its centre, the inscription "25th" is written in a graceful, flowing script, while behind it, the words "Happy Anniversary" are faintly repeated, reinforcing the mood of celebration and honouring a long, enduring partnership.
HAPPY 25TH ANNIVERSARY
£60.00
This image presents a joyful centenary gift set against a pristine white backdrop: a lush bouquet in a soft pink ribbed vase, accompanied by a bright, confetti-patterned 100th birthday balloon. The flowers rise in a generous dome, showcasing the skill of a seasoned Longford florist who understands how to balance colour and texture for a truly memorable occasion. At the centre, light pink Oriental lilies spread their star-shaped petals, their long, elegant stamens arching gracefully. Some are fully open, revealing their delicate inner markings, while tall, tapered buds at the top hint at future blooms that will keep the arrangement vibrant for days. Clustered around the lilies, soft pink and mauve-toned roses add a feeling of timeless romance, each bloom layered with velvety petals. Nestled between them are rich purple lisianthus, their slightly ruffled edges giving a luxurious depth. Scattered here and there, small lavender asters with sunny yellow centres resemble miniature garden daisies, adding a gentle, informal charm that might remind you of local green spaces around Longford. Lime green button chrysanthemums punctuate the bouquet with crisp, round bursts of colour, bringing an uplifting freshness. Wisps of white baby's breath thread delicately through the design, softening transitions between flowers and creating an airy, cloud-like halo. Dark green foliage encircles the arrangement, providing contrast and a natural framework. To the lower right of the bouquet, a shiny round foil balloon commands attention. Its surface is entirely covered with multi-coloured confetti circles-vivid reds, oranges, yellows, greens, and blues-surrounding bold white numerals "100" rendered with a subtle three-dimensional effect. The overall impression is one of proud celebration, perfect for honouring a 100-year milestone with a delivery to homes and care residences in Longford.
