my greatest muse is my family

more than mere flowers

I've always felt most at home in quiet, creative spaces where my mind is focused on a singular task. But when I began working part time for a flower shop as an undergraduate student, I never imagined my post-grad life would lead me right back to a surprisingly similar vignette - standing in front of a worktable in a design studio, foliage littering the floor, a half-finished lavender latte beside me, blooms all around.

Flash forward seven years, a Bachelor's Degree, and a full time career as an administrative professional. My younger sister (and best friend/wedding day assistant extraordinaire) was getting married. As a wedding gift, I volunteered to design and arrange her wedding flowers. Despite the stresses surrounding the rest of the wedding, I reveled in the quiet bliss of designing those florals. I was nervous about my very first endeavor into the wedding world. But when I placed the lovingly prepared bouquet in my sister's hands on a bright July day in 2015, I knew I'd begun treading the path I was meant to walk. Fleurish & Bloom was born shortly thereafter.

To me, giving someone joy on the most magical day of their life is both a privilege and a blessing. From initial contact to executing the vision for the big day, I believe each of my soon-to-be-married couples deserves to be treated with the same love and attention that I poured into my sister's wedding. To this day, my favorite part of the floral design process is watching a bride's face light up at the first sight of her bouquet (bonus points if she cries tears of joy). Each of those bouquets is given with a single wish: that her marriage continues to flourish and bloom in the most spectacular ways.

VIEW THE WEDDING EXPERIENCE

Jessica drove over two hours and back during Hurricane Ian for our wedding. She was not only on time, but the first person to show up and one of the last to leave! Her florals were so dreamy - I'm still getting compliments today about how beautiful our wedding flowers were!

Working with Jessica was a dream come true!
