Lucy founded Flowers by Varu as a styling business, but it didn’t take long before she realised the florals needed to be in her hands too, commanding colour, texture, composition. That instinct has since grown into a full-time team of six who are genuinely, infectiously passionate about wedding flowers. They’ll want to see your mood boards, hear about your colour palette, understand the feeling you’re going for, and then they’ll bring it to life in a way that looks like it was always meant to be there.
It’s an approach that’s earned them Best Wedding Floral Designer in Victoria two years running (2024 and 2025) and a place in the ABIA Top 10 nationally.
Flowers by Varu offer two wedding floral collections: a premium Perfection Collection for couples who want fully designed, large-scale floristry — ceremony backdrops, lush reception centrepieces, abundant bridal bouquets — and a High Street Collection for those working with a tighter budget who still want beautiful, considered flowers. Both are tailored to your venue, your season and your vision, because Lucy and the team don’t believe in a one-look-fits-all approach.
What makes them particularly easy to work with is that they handle full wedding styling alongside the floristry, ensuring one cohesive look and one seamless process.
Ever the perfectionists, Lucy and the team love thinking outside the box to create new trend setting looks to deliver your perfect day. Dedicated assistants keep the communication open throughout planning, and on the day, the install runs smoothly, with a team who are experienced, professional, and genuinely lovely to have around.
Flowers by Varu are based in Cheltenham, with a retail flower shop for everyday bouquets alongside their wedding and events studio. They also create florals for corporate clients including Crown.
Modern, fun and stress free, that is the Flowers by Varu ethos, and they truly live and breathe it. Their couples love the journey they are taking on during the planning process and we can’t say we are at all surprised.

“From the very first email interaction with Lucy to the last interaction with Neill, they just GOT IT!
I came to them with an idea but I truly had no idea how to articulate it or explain it, the inspo pics that got sent to me, I just knew it was going to be magic!
Fast forward their communication leading up to my wedding they were always clear and punctual. They were patient and understanding even when I had to chop and change things. Come the wedding day and WOW Neill and his team walked in and made me feel so calm and centred not to mention how beautiful my bouquet was, Neill then went the extra mile and attached the photo pendant of my late father for me. He did it with so much love and respect, a take away moment for me.
When we got to the venue all I could say was WOW they nailed it and beyond. The green was absolutely giving everything I asked for plus more, it was vibrant fun and super stylish, the placement of each bloom was thought of and crafted with love you could feel that. Flowers by Varu seriously love what they do because you just feel it through their work!
I couldn’t have asked for a better florist to make my day so special. I thank them forever and beyond.”
