Before there was a single flower, there was a story: a couple who wanted their wedding to feel like the Hobbits' birthday party from Lord of the Rings, hosted at the bride's parents' home, surrounded by family who'd clearly poured everything into the space.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

So the design had to match the people, not just the aesthetic. Earthy pink, lilac, light blue, and sage because that's what already lived in the rest of their decor. Sparkly textures because they asked for a little magic. A ceremony under the oaks because the place itself — palmettos, dappled light, all of it — was the point, not a backdrop to compete with.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Standing at that ceremony site, I didn't want it to look like flowers had been brought in. I wanted it to look like they'd always been growing there — wildflowers pushing up through the forest floor, like the woods had decided to bloom just for the occasion.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

This is what "whimsical and meaningful" looks like when you actually build it around two specific people instead of a passing trend.⁠ ⁠

→ What's a detail from your own story that shaped a design choice, big or small?⁠ ⁠

Vows said with water behind you.⁠ ⁠We kept this ceremony design soft and light- ivory, earthy pinks, just enough peach to catch the light, with trailing greenery doing most of the talking against that wooden frame. ⁠

When designing we are always aware of the space where the arrangement will be. Some ceremony spaces ask for more or less. But we never want to compete with a view like the one at ⁠. We add and augment what is already lovely about the space you've chosen! ⁠

Water, woods, or garden... which ceremony location do you love most?⁠ ⁠⁠

Psst, your palette doesn't have to be only two colors.⁠ It doesn't have to be "neutral with a pop." ⁠It doesn't have to make sense to anyone but you.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Your wedding design is personal. And when I sit down with a couple, I'm not pulling from a trend board- I'm pulling from them. The way they describe their living room. The trip that changed everything. The feeling they want when they walk into their event space.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Sometimes that means three colors. Sometimes six. Sometimes a palette that shouldn't work on paper absolutely does when you put a garden rose next to a ranunculus, and then next to something you've never seen at a wedding before.⁠ ⁠

So if you've been told to simplify your vision... I want you to know: you don't have to. Bring me all of it. I'll make it cohesive. I'll make it beautiful. I'll make it undeniably, unapologetically you.⁠ ⁠I love finding the through lines and weaving them into flowers. ⁠

Ceremony flowers might be my favorite thing to design.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

It's the backdrop for the moment everything changes. The first thing guests see. The thing you'll look at in photos for the rest of your life. And every single one I've ever made has looked completely different- because every couple is completely different.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

A lush green arch accented with white roses. Colorful floral columns bursting with peach and coral and yellow. Potted arrangements gathered lakeside like a garden you just wandered into. Deep red and burgundy blooms laid at the base of a centuries-old tree. Driftwood and blue hydrangea kissed by the water.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Same designer... completely different looks.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

That's what I love most about this work- I'm not replicating a look I've done before. I'm listening to you. To what you love, what makes you feel at home, what you want to walk toward when it's time.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Your ceremony backdrop should feel like yours. Let's make it that way.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Instant mood boost = when the stems bounce juuuuust right. 🥰 ⁠ ⁠ ⁠

That little movement. How the entire bouquet delicately sways. I will never get over it.⁠ ⁠ It's a florist joy that lives in my chest forever.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Fellow florists: you know exactly what I'm talking about. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Brides: when you're holding your bouquet, give it a little bounce. That's your floral designer saying hi. 👋🌸⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Flower friends: what's your version of the bouquet bounce? ⁠

Sometimes the most beautiful tablescapes are about intentional placement and letting each element breathe.⁠ ⁠

For this Central Florida wedding, we did three styles of centerpieces: mix of bud vases, ikebana-inspired centerpieces, and a larger compote style centerpieces. ⁠

Thoughtful design that felt abundant without trying too hard.⁠ ⁠The goal was to create a look that felt full and elevated but still let the conversation, the food, and the people be the focus. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Garden-style florals, natural elements, and the kind of simplicity that takes real planning to achieve. That's the sweet spot with my designs.🥰⁠

Same hands. Same heart. Five completely different weddings.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Your wedding shouldn't look like anyone else's- not the couple I designed for last weekend, last month, or last year.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Swipe through for a glimpse of what's possible 👉⁠ ⁠ Each of these couples came to me with a different vision, a different palette, a different love story. And stem by stem, we built designs that felt like them.⁠ ⁠ ⁠

Your story and your love is your own and your floral design should be too! ⁠

This February wedding was embracing the season and the romance. This couple was just the sweetest and obviously really intentional in their wedding planning. They had a friend officiate and found ways include their fur babies even though they didn't all attend. Lauren had a vision of getting married under a giant oak at La Venture Grove surrounded by a lush grounded arch-- nestled in by so much nature. James designed the cakes both in looks and also flavors (as he managed the bakery that they came from)-- they were delicious. And for the tables, drippy candles, greenery and pops of romantic reds, burgundy, pinks and deep w**e for all the romance.⁠
