Let’s bring your vision to life with incredible intention

From initial composition to final preservation, I’m here to custom-build a bouquet that’s a piece of living art, and, later, turn it into a still-life heirloom you and yours will cherish for years to come—ensuring your bouquet is in the same set of caring, creative hands throughout its entire journey.

My signature “bouquet blueprint” process—in which I rely on a phased, architectural approach to floral design—will guide our journey and ensure the arrangement you carry on that all-important walk down the aisle is well-proportioned, incredibly meaningful, and entirely true to you.

06. I offer the option to be on-site on your wedding day for 30 minutes to help your photographer direct you as you pose with your bouquet (because holding a bouquet in a flattering way is often harder than it sounds). This service is on a first-come-first-serve basis.

07. We’ll arrange for bouquet pickup or drop-off following your event. I’ll then deconstruct it, preserve the flowers in their final bloom stage, and begin working on composition options for your final still-life preservation. (This might be in the shape of your family crest, your monogram, or something more symbolic.)

08. You’ll select the composition that speaks to you—and I’ll get to work finalizing the still life for you and yours to hold dear for generations to come.

Working with a separate florist for your wedding flowers? No problem.

Collaboration is key for a cohesive event aesthetic. Because I focus solely on wedding personals (think: bouquets, boutonnières, and handhelds)—I’m no stranger to working alongside full-service florists who are providing florals for other aspects of your event. I’m incredibly open and collaborative—I always share my mood boards with your full-service florist to ensure we can create compelling floral designs that compliment each other’s work and exceed your every expectation.

My a-la-carte floral preservation option is ideal for those who’ve used another florist for their bridal bouquet—or for anyone who wants to preserve sympathy flowers or celebratory flowers from monumental moments in their life. I’ll deconstruct your arrangement or bouquet, and create a piece of still-life art that’s lovely, lasting, and designed to be passed down as a cherished heirloom for generations.

II. A-La-Carte Floral Preservation

Prev /

For those hosting intimate affairs of 100 or fewer in the Tri-State Region, I’m happy to provide full-service floral design, delivery, installation, and breakdown. This includes my complete bridal bouquet creation and preservation process. In order to provide each couple the one-on-one attention and expert insight they deserve—I take on a very limited number of full-service intimate events each year. Please reach out to inquire about your wedding date.

III. Microweddings & Intimate Weddings

Prev /

There’s nothing I love more than conceptualizing and creating small-scale architectural floral projects to breathe life into stunning spaces. Whether you’re in need of an eye-catching floral backdrop for a brand launch, a celebratory holiday installation for your home, or something lush and lovely for a hotel lobby—I always compose with an eye toward creating a living piece of art that’s inspired by your space and designed to tie together any surrounding décor elements.

IV. Bespoke Floral Installations

Prev /

For vendors looking to expand their network and enhance their portfolio, I love crafting florals for editorials and brand shoots. Whether you’re seeking a consultation to learn how to best integrate floral accents into your photoshoot for that new jewelry line you’re launching—or are a brand-new wedding vendor who needs me to photograph my work alongside yours using my honed “floragraphy” techniques (designed to capture the true essence of flora and foliage), I’d love to help your brand branch out and grow.

What Clients Are Saying

“We plan a lot of weddings, but it can be hard to find vendors that vibe on our level! It's so great to feel like we are friends with you, and can be goofy and weird while also trusting you to do great work. We never have to micromanage you and you always knock it out of the park! We're floored every time. Whether we have a client with a specific vision or someone who isn't quite sure exactly what they want, you nail it every.single.time. It's so amazing to see the concept that we've been emailing back and forth about come to life. We can’t wait to work with you in 2021!”

“Karen was the perfect fit for our wedding, absolutely loved working with her. Planning a wedding is stressful and overwhelming but this aspect was taken care of by Karen. Flowers were one of the most important aspects to me of our wedding and we loved how everything turned out, from the boutonniere and bouquets, to the centerpieces and the statement installment. She knew the exact look we were going for and was able to come up with a gorgeous design plan that went above and beyond! She has a fantastic eye for design and without a doubt will turn your vision into a reality. Karen was timely in her responses to our emails, she toured the venue with us and was so patient and amazing throughout the whole process. The attention to every detail did it for me. The flowers for our wedding day were AMAZING, I just about cried! She completely nailed everything we wanted and then some. We received SO many compliments on the flowers! It was truly a pleasure to work with Karen and we highly recommend her!”

“Karen went above & beyond to take the time to listen to what I envisioned and provide multiple options while still being considerate of my budget. She provided recommendations for hair and make up as well to make my wedding day less stressful (she even opened her shop early for me!) When I finally saw my bouquet and husband's boutonniere, I was speechless and was brought to tears thinking about how perfect the day was going to be. I have the best memories and pictures of my wedding day and beautiful arrangements. I can’t thank Karen enough for everything she did to make the day come together so flawlessly.”

“I had a vision of what my wedding day floral arrangements would look like, but Karen & her amazing staff far surpassed that vision! We couldn’t be happier with our flowers! From the bouquets, corsages, boutonnieres, church flowers, centerpieces, place card table display, sweetheart table, amazing reception floral arch and bouquet preservation... every piece made was absolutely gorgeous! It’s comforting & clear to see Karen loves what she does. She’s detailed, she’s organized and truly personalizes her work for each couple! She listens to your likes, dislikes and your “maybes” and creates a work of art!”

“Karen and her team went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was PERFECT. We wanted floating candle centerpieces and trying to save money we thought we could make them ourselves. Last minute we realized it was not the best way to go and we wanted a professional. I ran to Karen frantically nervous that our wedding was only two weeks away and we needed centerpieces done. Karen calmed me down instantly with her kindness and professionalism and was able to get us centerpieces that everyone loved! Without me even asking, her team decorated our sweetheart table so beautifully that I received hundreds of compliments. Our wedding cake was plain but I asked for a touch of moody blue roses and they were placed so beautifully that it brought tears to my eyes. I don't feel like Karen and her team were a "vendor ", they felt like family! Thank you again!!!!”
