Award-winning Didsbury florist boutique, The Flower Lounge, celebrated turning 10 with a  community birthday party .

The event included flower crown making, face painting, birthday cakes and fizz, plus the launch of a brand-new birthday bouquet which celebrates seasonal blooms.

Members of the local Didsbury community mingled with The Flower Lounge’s loyal customers to mark the milestone, with the first 50 customers being gived an exclusive, limited edition canvas shopper, filled with goodies supplied by The Flower Lounge and other local businesses.

Sian Wild founded The Flower Lounge on Barlow Moor Road in 2009 after honing her skills as a florist working with events teams across the UK.

Sian said: “Turning 10 is an incredibly proud moment for me, it feels like only yesterday I started living the dream of running my own florist shop.

“It still gives me tingles to see my name above the door after all these years.

“I couldn’t have done it without the unwavering support of the local Didsbury community and my loyal customers, which is why I wanted to say ‘thank you’ with this party.”
