2021 might have already given us plenty of frights, but one we can get on board with is Halloween - at least we can actually plan the scares for one day. Get the neighbours talking by going all out and dressing your house with the most extra decorations. Need inspiration? Don’t worry we have you covered:
Flowers Box London
Flowers aren’t just for every other time of the year… they’re for Halloween too and premium florists, Flowers Box London, create incredible autumnal boo-quets (yes we went there) arranged in pumpkins. They’re ideal as a not-so spooky but impressive centerpiece for your table or if you want something that little bit extra then we say go for the Orange Carnations Pumpkin - that’s right a whole pumpkin made entirely of carnations!

Anya provides bespoke designs (including installation and removal if needed) tailored to exactly your theme, whether that’s a warm and autumnal, dark and sophisticated or something suitably scary for children.

So Lets Party
After last year's small gatherings, this year we're going all out, and make it a Halloween+ with over the top decorations. We’re talking black sequin table cloths, creepy cobweb covered candelabra, a pile of skeletons or a Halloween birdcage. Event decorators, So Lets Party, can provide the fitting and styling or you can get DIY kits if you’re feeling creative.
