If you have any wedding vendor friends, check on them. They are not ok. Probably on highs from the exhilaration of accomplishment but definitely in desperate need of a vacation and their personal life may be in a bit of shambles. 🤷♀️-I absolutely love what I do. I love the excitement of seeing what all my planning and dreaming actually produces. My favorite is taking a clients vision and making it even better than they imagined. Working with a dream team on this wedding is also just the best. We have a great community here that supports each other well and this wedding was the best example of that.-The feeling of accomplishment after a wedding is an intoxicating high that definitely keeps me going. My body, however, is reminding me that I can’t live on that high. I need rest, too. My hard working crew does as well. We will be closed Saturday through Monday for Labor Day. Until then, come in and grab some gorgeous flowers to cheer up your table or brighten someone’s day. Btw, lots of new inventory has been rolling in. Come check it out while you can!
Who’s ready for fall? 🙋♀️The last wedding of a very busy summer and the setting couldn’t have been more idyllic. On the families own private property, tucked inside a grove of trees made it feel like a much needed calming hug. I also really loved the color pallet for this one. It left a lot of room for creativity and the results were yummy. 🍂🌸🧡🤎♥️
A hint of fall colors in this week’s weddings and I’m here for it. 🤎

A florist’s dream wedding means too many pictures to share. The week did not go smoothly and it took every ounce of energy to get through it but in the end I took some time to just enjoy the space, take pictures and appreciate the beauty. Thank you @jenfromdabeach for the privilege of designing for you and thank you to my amazing team who powered through to create magic.✨
This wedding was chock full of personality and style! Every little detail was swoon worthy. Love the groom’s floral tie so much and don’t even get me started on the bride’s dress! A floral lovers dream! 😍Venue: @theruinsastoria Coordinator: @bluelarkevents Desserts: @gatheredastoria HMU: @underwoodmakeup Rentals: @lilyandcane @cannonbeach_partyrentals Florals: @bloomincrazyfloral Photo Booth: @oregonphotoboothco Photographer: @taylordentonphotography
I’ve wanted to do a rooftop wedding at the @hotelelliott for a while now. How dreamy is this set up of sunny summer flowers on a slightly overcast morning in Astoria.
Bridal party flowers from last weekends wedding.
Every once in a while you get an opportunity that allows for major personal and professional growth. This was one of those moments for me. Feeling super proud of myself and learning to accept those feelings. Thank you Carolyn @creative.celebrations for recommending me and everyone supporting and cheering me on.
I am so proud of my team. We pulled off the biggest wedding order to date with no real hiccups and it all turned out so beautiful! All the many hours of planning, buying, prepping and babying of flowers in heat paid off. Can’t wait to share more pictures!
Busy week for us! A very large wedding is requiring all hands on deck and affecting our open hours. Thursday we will be closed from 11-2 and closed all day Saturday. Doing our best to still do regular deliveries, though, like this beauty that went out today.
When your mom owns a flower shop you learn scissor cutting skills on flowers. 😂🌸✂️💐
My absolute favorite thing to do while designing is to take someone’s brief and knock out of the park. This client said the recipient loves cherry blossoms and asked for a pink and white arrangement. It may not be cherry blossom season but I feel this is a perfect substitute. Also, it was the most heavenly scented arrangement with mock orange, sweat peas and peonies. *sniiiiiiffffff siigh 🌸💕☺️
We now carry perfume! Extra excited about the crema. Great for traveling with the added control of how much you use.Have had my eye on this brand for a while. Love their name and vintage hand drawn packaging, but I also love that it’s small batch made in the US. I’m not a big fragrance person but these light scents are lovely. Honeycomb is my favorite. Come in and try them all and find your favorite.
Another romantic evening at The Ruins
Wednesday’s are market days. Here’s a sneak peek of a day in our life. Nina and I hand pick the best of what Oregon has to offer. So many beauties blooming now! Did you spy the dahlias!?! Whaat!! Also, let’s not forget it’s everyone’s favorite peony season!And yes, those are Nina’s emotional support flowers. She now thinks she gets her own flowers every week. Who can blame her?! Thank you Sandra at Peterkort Roses! #locallygrownflowers #oregonflowergrowers #pnwflorist #oregoncoastflorist #floristlife #florist #oregon #astoriaoregon
Peony season is here! Aimee’s comment on this bouquet is that it looks like it’s got stories to tell and you just want to sit and listen. 💕
So sorry we are late but better late than never! Here’s our drawing winner for the $100 gift certificate! 🎉
