The Roots

The desire to craft bouquets roots from a very early age. As a little girl, I would plead for my parents to stop the car so I could pick a handful of flowering weeds (this hasn't changed, ask my husband). Afternoons were spent arranging flowers with my grandmother into old window frames to hang on the wall. I would spend hours with my other grandmother at the botanical gardens, stopping to smell every sweet-scented bud along the way. It was there that I was later engaged, and it was in the rolling Oregon hills filled with lavender and rose gardens that I spent my honeymoon. My sanctuary has always been in the presence of wildflowers.

But it wasn’t until after my wedding that I captured this desire. Choosing to create my wedding bouquet awakened my soul. I saw my own heart in the array of blooms. The peace I felt in forming the bouquet created a thirst to make more. So, friend after friend, I began to create wedding bouquets. What task I thought might be stressful, was actually a complete joy.

My desire to create your bouquet stems from this joy. Your bouquet should not just be a reflection of your color scheme, but a reflection of your heart. All good & beautiful things are grown from the dirt. My desire is that your bouquet would illustrate your story—your blossomed heart on your wedding day.   I would love to chat with you about your story and how we might be able to illustrate that in the florals for your wedding.

We are also open to all kinds of other occasions including styled photo-shoots, showers, dinner parties, holiday gatherings, businesses, and intimate events. Free-formed & organic or clean-cut & elegant.
