Should You DIY
Your Wedding Flowers?


But before you order 400 stems and turn your kitchen into a flower shop, there’s a better question:

What actually makes sense for YOU?

I’ve been a professional florist for more than 20 years, and I created this free guide to help you figure out where DIY actually belongs in your wedding.

Professional advice. Reasonable expectations.

spoiler: you don’t have to DIY all of them. 

Maybe you’ve looked at the cost of wedding flowers and thought:

I could totally do this myself.


And maybe you can.

    Inside, I’ll help you figure out:

    Which flowers you actually care about—and which ones you really don’t.

    What DIY wedding flowers actually require in time, help, space, flexibility, and logistics.

    Whether making your flowers will add to your wedding experience—
    or just add to your workload.

    What makes sense to DIY, simplify, delegate, hire out, or skip completely.

    How to build a flower plan that fits your wedding, your budget, and your life.

    And because I’m not interested in making this harder than it needs to be, I’ll also share three inexpensive floral tools I actually use if you decide DIY belongs in your plan.

    You don’t need the “right” flower plan.

      Hi, I’m Emily.

      I’ve been a professional florist for more than 20 years, from buying and designing flowers in New York City to weddings, events, installations—and eventually DIYing the flowers for my own wedding.

      I LOVE beautiful flowers.

      I also know that not everything matters.

      I’m here to help you figure out what does, understand your options, and make wedding-flower decisions you actually feel good about.

      And if you decide to make some of the flowers yourself?

      We’re going to have some fun doing it.
