Dreamy Textures. Dynamic Movement. And Always Something Unexpected.
Florist in Richmond
Flowers are not accessories; they are living art. With full-service wedding florals of your own — that are sustainably-sourced too — you’ll feel immersed by the delicate, yet impactfully designed blooms that speak to your story. With every wedding, each design choice is founded in authenticity and meaning to create an irreplicable design. The details are elevated by my years of wedding experience, balancing contrasts of velvety textures and compelling depth to evoke emotion and personality with every stem.

Tell me you agree: floral designs can be compared to the paintings and sculptures displayed along the walls of any revered art gallery — beloved for their evocative elegance and emotive catch of the eye. They serve a purpose greater than decoration — whispering moments of love, laughter and longing with every winding texture. Works of art like these carry years of symbolism and stories, yearning to be passed down. They portray not only breathtaking beauty, but also deep-rooted meaning. In a similar creative pursuit, I arrange each stem with care and with the knowledge that every petal will carry on into vivid memories of your wedding in the years to come.

No two designs are the same; my work is constantly evolving to incorporate nature’s playfulness and your innate story. From editorial to garden-style, each floral recipe has a character all its own.

Taking care of the earth is a foundational piece of my work. I source my stems from local farms as often as possible. This guarantees flowers that are fresher, and that stay so, longer.
The Aster & Bee Difference
The path less taken that I follow as a wedding florist in Richmond, VA
Hannah | Williamsburg, VA
“I really did not know much about flowers and just had a few inspiration photos and a color scheme. Jessica went and created a full vision board and design plan for our day that was above and beyond what I could have even imagined.”
“She Was Great To Work With!”
Katie | The Pinner House
“The florals were the only decor I had, and I had no regrets over that decision. Jessica helped us come up with a ceremony setup that we were even able to reuse for the reception! She was so great about answering questions and getting back to us quickly. The entire wedding felt truly enchanting... We cannot recommend Aster & Bee enough!”
“We Had An Absolutely Beautiful Wedding Thanks To Aster & Bee!”

03. Elopement Florals
The first step is to inquire! You can expect a response within 48 (business) hours with a booking guide and questionnaire. From there, we’ll schedule a consultation to discuss your story and some design details. You’ll receive a tailored proposal with a vision board to confirm, or submit revisions too. Simply finalize your booking with a signed contract and 50% deposit.
01. How do we book you?
Whenever possible, I source flower varieties from local flower farms. This also means choosing seasonal varieties as they bloom. Local farming with seasonal blooms produces less waste than international shipping and is more kind to pollinators.
02. How do you design with sustainability in mind?
When you have the date confirmed and your venue booked, it’s a great idea to inquire with me soon after, typically 8-12 months before the wedding. For full-service blooms, this allows ample opportunity for an in-depth consultation and design process, as well as time to order the best blooms possible for your wedding!
03. When should we book you?
If you have a specific flower or plant that holds a special meaning to the two of you, I will absolutely make every effort to include it in your designs. However, due to the seasonal nature of some plants, it’s not always possible to guarantee certain varieties. But as your florist, I can present plenty of beautiful alternatives that will be sure to catch your eye.
