I’m an artist, and flowers are my medium.

Tell me your love story, and I’ll turn it into floral design.

​

I believe weddings should be more than a trendy aesthetic ~ they should feel unmistakably you.

Let’s go beyond merely picking a color palette & trying to recreate whatever happens to be flooding the algorithm. Together, we can bring the wedding you’ve been daydreaming about to life.

​​​

The meaningful moments in your relationship, the special things you adore, your sentimental family traditions, values, beliefs & even your quirky inside jokes should be incorporated into the experience of your wedding day.

That's the stuff you & your guests will remember ~ A feeling of connection with who you two are as a couple.

Those are the personalized details that make people say, “Wow, that is *so* them!”

​

Give me an emotion, a vibe, a vision, the photos that captured your imagination,

or just tell me you have absolutely no idea where to start ~ and we'll figure it out together.

We can turn your vague ideas into something meaningful that sets your wedding apart.

I’ll be your collaborator, creative advisor & confidant. 

​

Generating ideas is my specialty. It is so fun for me to help take a half-formed thought, a treasured memory, or a “I don't know exactly what I want, but I know how I want it to feel” and turn it into something tangible. If you want your flowers to feel like they could only belong to your wedding ~ and to feel like you have someone in your corner from our first conversation through your first dance… That’s where I come in.

​

I invest my time to really get to know you so that the florals, design elements, and thoughtful touches are all inspired by what makes you two unique. My goal is that by the time I am handing you your bouquet, you know me as a friend who is genuinely invested in your wedding.

​

My favorite part of this work is building real relationships with my clients that go beyond the wedding day & into your marriage. I want to listen as you relive how epic your honeymoon was, get hear about your new house, your growing family, and all the life that happens after “I do." 

​

And yes, it's true your flowers won't last forever. Their fleeting beauty is what makes them so special & the memories they help create, the stories you'll tell, and the photographs they are part of will become heirlooms for generations to come.

"Full-Service"

When I say

​

​

I mean it.

Whether you need someone who can inspire you dream big, or keep you grounded in reality, I’m here to help you plan, prepare, & offer you useful insider information. Maybe you're hoping for some alternatives for a toss bouquet, wondering what color the napkins should be, searching for vendor recommendations, or want to know which jobs to give your bridal party to keep everything running smoothly. I even make custom, in depth mood boards you can show people when they inevitably ask,

"So how's the wedding planning coming?"

​

I’m not the florist who drops off the bouquets, takes a pretty Instagram photo, and heads home. Come time to get ready to walk down the aisle ~ I’m there ~ designing on site, making sure each bud vase is where it belongs, and answering questions before they become problems. I’m ensuring the boutonnières are on straight, coaching the bridesmaids how to hold their bouquets, carrying your train so it doesn’t snag, advocating for you… & staying to make sure you actually eat something. 

I strive to make each step of the process genuinely enjoyable. It’s flowers for goodness sake!

Let’s have some fun!
