Flowers are not accessories; they are living art. With full-service wedding florals (sustainably sourced when possible), you’ll be immersed in the delicate, impactfully designed blooms that speak to your story. With every wedding, each design is founded in authenticity and meaning to create an irreplicable design. The details are elevated by years of wedding experience, balancing contrasts of velvety textures and compelling depth to evoke emotion and personality with every stem.
Dreamy Textures. Dynamic Movement. And Always Something Unexpected.
Floral designs can be compared to the paintings and sculptures displayed in revered art galleries; they are beloved for their evocative elegance and emotive catch of the eye. Notably, 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 that we pass down. They are breathtaking not just for their beauty, but also for their deep-rooted meaning. Similarly, I arrange each stem with care and with the knowledge that the work I do carries on into the memories of your wedding you'll recall in years to come.

My approach as a florist in Northern Virginia
Maximizing the use of your flowers, finding seasonal blooms that fit your vision — you’ll find it all within the proposal and design process.
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 part of what I do. I source my stems from local farms as often as possible. This guarantees flowers that are fresher and stay so longer.

I’m so honored that you envision your wedding surrounded by this floral artwork. Please, connect with me and I will share a simple intake form to further understand your needs before we connect on the phone. Or, your planner can simply send over details for a custom quote.
Step 01 of 06
Stroll in & inquire
During our consultation call, I’ll ask about your individual stories and the path that led you here as a couple. Now is your time to share your favorite memories together and the things that carry true meaning for you. It’s in these moments of connection that I’m able to develop a genuine understanding of your relationship and infuse those intimate details into unique and sentimental floral designs.
Step 02 of 06
Plant the seeds
I’ll help you narrow down your wildest ideas into a carefully arranged design. Based on what you or your planner has shared, you’ll receive a proposal with an in-depth, itemized list. There is no need to identify specific flower types unless you have something in mind — I’ll carefully select seasonal flowers with the following design process to embody the emotional essence of your wedding.
Step 03 of 06
View the proposal
I believe in editing the vision to ensure the florals fit in with your aesthetic. As such, you’ll have the opportunity to adjust any proposed items before booking. However, only 14 days are set aside for this process to accommodate a first-come, first-served booking experience. To proceed, sign your contract and submit your 33% deposit. And yes, we can certainly add on any other floral services needed down the road.

Fine-Tune & Prune the Vision
In the months leading up to your wedding, I’ll stay connected as other design decisions are made, communicating with you or your planner. Knowing the tablescape details, invitation color palette and other design aspects helps me complete the scene, so don’t shy away from forwarding updates.
Step 05 of 06
Immerse Yourself
For those special memories that continue to unfold, a complimentary bouquet is offered to couples after their wedding. With your choice of a handheld or basket arrangement, I’ll design a bespoke bouquet to celebrate your next milestone, from anniversary sessions to maternity photos. All you have to do is send me a note when the time is right.
Step 06 of 06
Receive your bonus heirloom bouquet
The first step is to inquire! You can expect a response within 48 (business) hours. From there, we’ll schedule a consultation to discuss your story and some design details. You’ll receive a tailored proposal to confirm or submit revisions to. Simply finalize your booking with a signed contract and 33% deposit.
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 kinder to pollinators.
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. Especially 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!
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.
