The Willows Florist is Mandy Bellamore, working out of a Langstone workshop on the old Chepstow Road, four miles east of Newport. Twenty-seven years in the floral trade before she went out on her own in late 2018. Bespoke wedding work without set packages, sympathy tributes delivered direct to the funeral director, hand-tied bouquets and silk-and-dried arrangements. The phone is answered by Mandy or Chloe.
Every order is hand-shaped at the workshop on Chepstow Road. Local delivery to Newport, Caerleon, Cwmbran, Risca, Magor and Chepstow at £4.95, six days a week. No Sunday or bank-holiday deliveries.
No fixed packages. Every wedding starts with a free consultation at the Langstone workshop, where we plan bouquets, table centres, arches and fireplaces around the venue, the season and the bride. Recent work across south Wales venues, including the Celtic Manor and Newport-area country halls.
Coffin sprays sized in foot-increments from three to six feet, tied sheaths, posies, wreaths, based and loose hearts, crosses, pillows, named tributes up to seven letters. Every tribute hand-shaped, every delivery direct to your funeral director. Same-day where the order comes in by phone before lunch.
Gift-wrapped hand-ties from twenty-five pounds, roses and gyp from sixty, luxury hydrangea and eucalyptus baskets, planted bowls with succulents, hand-painted vases. Local delivery only across six Gwent towns, four pounds ninety-five flat, never on Sundays or bank holidays.
A separately-billed line for the brief that needs to last past the season. Silk bouquets, preserved-dried table centres, dried-flower wreaths, mixed-media arrangements that pair fresh seasonals with a dried backbone. Particularly popular for the bride who wants to keep her wedding bouquet.
Mandy Bellamore spent twenty-seven years in the floral industry before stepping out on her own. In late 2018 she set up The Willows in Langstone, working out of her own workshop on the old Chepstow Road between Newport and Magor. Bespoke wedding work first, sympathy tributes the steady weekly trade, hand-tied bouquets and the silk-and-dried line completing the four corners.
The phone is answered by Mandy or by Chloe, the second pair of hands on the rota. The website is a quiet shop window. The work is done over the phone, at the workshop, and on the bench. The 2023 wedding-florist award on her wall sits beside the customer cards she has kept.
“There is nothing more rewarding than seeing the bride on her wedding day walking down the aisle surrounded by my floral designs.” Mandy Bellamore, on the about page
Coffin sprays size in foot-increments, three to six feet, because the spray has to match the casket. A six-foot spray on a three-foot child's casket is the wrong picture. We will ask the funeral director, or we will ask you, before we cut a single stem.
Named tributes cap at seven letters per arrangement. DAD, MUM, NAN, NANNA, GRAMPS, GRANDAD all fit. GREAT GRAN does not fit on one piece. We will split into two and the visual reads cleaner than a cramped single piece would.
Same-day delivery for orders called in before lunch, direct to your funeral director. We hold the tribute, the card, the service time and the family name in one place so nothing gets named wrong on the day.
“The flowers were stunning and exactly what I requested. A first class service.”
“Delivered the same day for me for my Nannas 90th birthday. The recipient was over the moon.”
Call 07850 011711 and Mandy or Chloe will pick up. We will take the brief, the date, the recipient, the delivery address and the card message. Card details by phone, or we hold the slot and you settle on the day.

Workshop visits are by appointment. Call ahead and we will hold a chair, the kettle, and the colour book.
Mondays are the rest day. The Tuesday morning queue of orders gets answered first when we open at 9am.
Yes, please do. The phone is how most of our orders come in. Mandy or Chloe will answer on 07850 011711. We can take card details over the phone, or we will hold the slot and you can settle when the flowers arrive.
Yes. Sympathy work is the largest line we cover, and we deliver direct to the funeral director rather than to your address. We can do same-day when the call comes in before lunch. Just have the funeral director's name and the service time to hand and we will arrange the rest.
Seven letters per arrangement. That covers DAD, MUM, NAN, GRAMPS, GRANDAD and most nicknames. Longer family names will need to be split across two pieces, which we are happy to plan with you over the phone.
Yes. We do not have fixed bridal packages because no two weddings are quite the same. Every wedding starts with a free consultation at the Langstone workshop, where we walk through bouquets, table centres, arches, fireplaces and a costed plan you can take to your venue. Pricing is agreed in writing before any deposit is taken.
Local delivery covers Newport, Caerleon, Cwmbran, Risca, Magor and Chepstow at four pounds ninety-five, six days a week. We do not post product, and we do not deliver on Sundays or bank holidays. Wedding flowers travel further by quote.
