After 20+ years as a professional florist, I’ve learned there’s more than one way to make beautiful wedding flowers happen. I’ll help you figure out what matters to YOU, where you can simplify, and what you can make a whole lot easier.

Wedding flowers don't have to be
all or nothing.

PROFESSIONAL ADVICE.

REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS.

DIY some. Buy some. Delegate some. Hire some. Skip some.

You don’t have to diy everything
to DIY your wedding flowers.

The goal isn’t to prove you can do all your own wedding flowers.

It’s to figure out which flowers are worth your time, money and energy—and which ones aren’t.

There isn’t one right way to do YOUR wedding flowers.

There’s the way that makes sense for YOU.



DIY. SIMPLIFY. DELEGATE. HIRE. SKIP.

And skip the things you don’t.


That still counts.


Hi, I’m Emily. I’m a Type B Florist.

Do I care about the end result looking beautiful? 

Do I believe there are a lot of different ways to get there? 

Absolutely.

Absolutely.


Do I believe every single flower, arrangement and detail deserves the same amount of time, money, energy and stress?


Absolutely not. 


After 20+ years working professionally with flowers, I've learned where precision matters, where shortcuts work beautifully, what tends to go sideways—and when the professional answer is simply:

Being Type B doesn't mean I care less.

Don't make this harder than it needs to be.


It means I know what matters. And what really, really doesn't.

so... should you DIY your wedding flowers?

You've got options. The question is:
which ones actually make sense for you?


Before you order 400 stems, recruit your entire family and turn your garage into a flower shop, start here. 

I made a free guide to help you figure out:

where DIY belongs in your wedding flower plan—and where it doesn't.

Because you can save money, make something beautiful, and skip a whole lot of unnecessary work.

BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS. LESS WORK. MORE FUN.

okay. you’ve decided what you’re doing.
now let’s actually pull it off.

You’ve decided wedding flowers are something you want to take an active role in.

That does NOT mean you have to become a florist. 

The BLOOM BLUEPRINT™ gives you my 20+ years of professional flower experience and helps you turn all those ideas, screenshots and “maybe we could…” conversations into an actual wedding flower plan.

We’ll figure out what deserves the WOW, what can stay simple, what you can do ahead, where to buy your flowers, what I’d actually choose, how much help you’ll need, how to care for everything—and what to do when something inevitably goes sideways.

Because I can’t promise nothing will go wrong.

I CAN help you know what to do next.

Sometimes you don't need another Google search.

You just want a florist to look at everything and say,

want me to look at your actual flower plan?

 “Yep. I'd do this. I'd simplify that. And I would absolutely NOT spend three hours making those.”

Book a private 30-MINUTE WEDDING FLOWER PLAN REVIEW and bring me your venue, inspiration, flower ideas, budget and questions.

We'll look at your plan together and figure out what I'd keep, simplify, delegate, hire out or skip—and catch any potential problems BEFORE WEDDING WEEK.

not planning a wedding? you can still hang out. 

I spent 20+ years working with flowers, so weddings are definitely not the only thing I have to talk about. 😂

Sometimes we make flowers just because it's fun.

And sometimes I tell stories because after two decades in the flower business, I have A LOT of them.

Private virtual floral workshops for teams and groups who want to make something beautiful, learn a few things, laugh a little—and leave with flowers they're actually proud of.

PRIVATE FLORAL WORKSHOPS

Come for the flowers. Stay for the stories.

Now I tell stories from 20+ years in the flower business—the beautiful, ridiculous, glamorous and occasionally spectacularly sideways.

Because somehow, the stories that start with flowers usually end up being about a whole lot more.

GARBAGE FLOWERS & GLAMOUR

I learned floral design with garbage flowers.

Literally.
