We recommend reaching out as soon as you've secured your wedding date and venue. Most of our clients book 9-12 months in advance. Because we want to ensure that every celebration receives our full attention, we accept a limited number of weddings each year.
How far in advance should we book?
Floral design typically represents 10-15% of a couple's overall wedding budget. For our clients, investments usually range between $10,000 and $50,000. This level of commitment allows us to create immersive, transformative environments defined by abundance, intention, and artistry.
What should I plan to invest in floral design?
We start with a conversation. We'll discuss your venue, guest count, priorities, aesthetic, and the overall atmosphere you'd like to create. From there, we'll provide guidance on the scope of florals that best suit your wedding, and we'll discuss the anticipated investment. Once we've determined we're the right fit for each other and your date is reserved, we begin the design process. Detailed floral selections and design development unfold over the months leading up to your wedding, allowing our work to be thoughtful, collaborative, and tailored to your unique vision.
What does your design process look like?
That's entirely up to you! Some clients want to be deeply engaged, others prefer to hand us the reins entirely. Either way, our role is to listen carefully, interpret thoughtfully, and deliver with confidence.
How involved do we need to be in the process?
We work only with the finest blooms available, both locally-grown and imported. We incorporate our own homegrown flowers — we grow without the use of chemicals and practice no-till agriculture —into our wedding work wherever possible, and we support fellow local growers whenever we get the chance to use their product.
How do you handle sourcing and seasonality?
YES! Absolutely! We thrive in collaborative partnerships and often work alongside top planners and production crews to bring complex visions to life seamlessly.
Can you collaborate with our planner?
My background in scholarship and horticulture gives my work a perspective that's rare in floral design — one that unites intellect with instinct and art with deep botanical understanding. The result is design that feels natural yet elevated, intentional yet effortless. It is never formulaic, and it is always tailored to you.
