Lucca is a city on the Serchio river in Italy’s Tuscany region. It’s known for the well-preserved Renaissance walls encircling its historic city center and its cobblestone streets. Broad, tree-lined pathways along the tops of these massive 16th- and 17th-century ramparts are popular for strolling and cycling. Casa di Puccini, where the great opera composer was born, is now a house museum.
The accommodation is at Col di Lavacchio, a working organic Tuscan farm and agriturismo, with gorgeous views across the Garfagnana valley. Here you can explore its vineyard, wild flower meadow, orchard and wood and or relax by the 12m swimming pool.
Athena and Mairead founded East London’s favourite florist Rebel Rebel in 2000. With the help of their highly talented team of ambitious, imaginative and flamboyant florists, they have built Rebel Rebel into a successful and award winning business and become one of London’s premiere florists, designing weddings and creating floral designs for some of the world’s most prestigious clients and brands.
We buy flowers and foliage from New Covent Garden flower market every morning. Mostly seasonal, often British, we choose what we personally like and hope that you share our love.
Our flower shop is in Mare Street Market, 117 Mare Street (Corner of Westgate Street) London, E8 4RU; it’s open from 10am - 5pm, Tuesday to Saturday.
From our workshop in Regent Studios, Rebel Rebel specialises in flowers for weddings, corporate events, parties, installations and contracts. They also run Flower Workshops regularly.
In a lush valley north of the city of Lucca in Tuscany, you will find our flower farm and studio. Back in 2017 we bought our house and field as a place to host our Summer Flower School, however with growing demand we also now provide seasonal flowers for weddings across Italy, as well as fashion shoots and events.
Starting 4 years ago with a small cutting garden and now expanding into our much larger flower field, Rebel Rebel Italia grows seasonal, beautiful blooms using No Dig and organic growing practices to have as little impact on the planet as possible! On our acre plot we are growing everything from sunflowers to cosmos, sweet peas to tomatoes, for our weddings, courses and locals alike to enjoy.
