Bowerbird Flowers

Bowerbird Flowers Bowerbird Flowers connects people with the beauty of the natural world, during life's most noted mom Bowerbird was nested in my mind long before it took flight.

Using thoughtfully-sourced natural elements, Bowerbird Flowers are crafted in such a way to surprise and inspire you, but most importantly, bring a feeling of joy to your most celebrated moments. I come from an extensive design background, but it wasn't until the past few years that the "flower" seed was planted. I was overcome by the beautiful, floral-based blogs out there, and thought, this migh

t be that spark I've been waiting for. In March 2014, I headed to Brooklyn to learn from the greats at Saipua, and from there, I spread my wings. From weddings to parties, I'm here to work with your budget and timeframe. Please call me at 919-265-7508 or email me at [email protected] to get started. I look forward to creating for you!

Natural beauty. We're always inspired by nature, by our clients, and many other things. Fresh and dried elements were used to create the ceremony and tablescapes for this very chic couple. She wrote me the sweetest email and I wish them all the best as they start a new chapter as a couple. Just before the wedding, they moved from L.A. to N.Y.C. ! Life is good! Love you guys J&B. Oh, and Potato too!

I hope everyone is safe in N.C. and that all of our friends in S.C. are safe and drying out a bit. I'm up north finally, taking a restful break and spending time with family. The storm is heading our way but won't be nearly as bad.
The shop was closed yesterday , so everyone was safe at home, but we are back in action today and tomorrow!

Our August SALE is in full swing with 25% off everything except flowers, plants and herbs. Come on by!

After all the color of the last few weeks, my eyes appreciate the simplicity of a more tonal color palette. πŸ₯°πŸ’šπŸ€πŸ’šπŸ€
The design is anything but simplistic, though. We used a variety of plant material mixed with marble, pottery, and ceramics to create a playful but sophisticated design! We were lucky enough, during our downtime in July, to be part of 2 very creative styled shoots/open houses. We are leaning into new designs, fresh looks, and expanding our hard goods selection. If you are looking for a more modern aesthetic for your wedding, drop us an inquiry. We'd love to work with you!

I didn't get many photos this weekend, but here's a little peek of some of the beauty the Bowerbird Team created! We're all pretty tired but extremely happy with the end result of hours of work. This particular celebration was a bit of a milestone.

Words are not sufficient for all the thanks I have for my team, my colleagues, and my clients.

A good day for sure! Tablescapes are Bowerbird's love language. We love guiding our clients through the design process and coming up with unique, design forward ideas. Color, texture and light are all important elements that we can play with. And yes, food does have a place at the table other then just being on your plate!

Meet the team! They have been incredible this weekend and covered the shop and the weddings.
I lost an uncle, my Dad's brother, late the week before last. Lily and I traveled to Ohio, where I grew up, to be with family and lay him to rest. It has been a lot! Emotionally, being back where I grew up for such a sad occasion was bittersweet.
I wouldn't have been able to go without the support of these incredibly talented and kind people. Big hugs and immense gratitude for good people!!!!

Dear Reader,
Only magical summer weddings are in the design lineup for this seasons nuptials . (Per usual!πŸ˜‰)
Two weeks ago, we had the honor of making Bianca and Ted's vision for a lilac, Bridgerton inspired dream come to life! We worked with on every floral detail, and our couple was over the moon with the end results!
If your considering a wedding celebration in 2025, we would love to be part of your plans .
What is your floral dream?

Blue and white, but make it elegant and interesting!
We used a wide variety of vessels to play with neutral tones and textures against the main character here, classic blue and white. Glass wicker wrapped vases, smooth white ceramics, and woven baskets kept things unfussy but still elegant and really showed off the hydrangea and textural white flowers we chose! Don't be afraid to do something different! It pays off when you walk in the room and see the whole thing come together!

Happy Father's Day to all of the father figures out there! Hug those folks tight today and all days! Dads come in many forms, and you, Michael, were the most supportive, steady, and fun-loving father for all of our kids. We miss you so much. We love you.

I'll cherish these memories forever.

Another successful wedding weekend! Yesterday was beautiful, and today was amazing! Loved the color palettes and all of the gorgeous details. We paired a mix of local and imported flowers with dried elements and textural ceramics for an elegant yet unfussy feel. More of this my NC couples!

A year ago.... almost. A year isn't so long, but everything is different. This is where my mind goes now. A year ago, I was so busy doing all the things, but Mikey was still here. And we didn't know about the cancer growing inside him yet. We had no idea what was coming, and I certainly couldn't imagine he would be gone in a year. This past week was particularly difficult. I think as spring turns into summer, it's another first. Our first summer without him. All the joyful summer things we always did together are wonderful memories that are too sad to think about. Grief needs a witness, and this journey is universal, I do know that. And so I share my sadness and my joy with all of you as I navigate this first year. I know I'll be doing all the summer things soon, and I will relish all of them. I'm alive, and I'm still here and, dear reader, so are you. Let's find some joy!

Well, I didn't post a single story from today. Epic IG fail! But the team and I were super busy making wedding dreams come true. We have a few more very busy weeks before we slide into Summer. We've had lots of new arrivals at the shop along with a ton of new plants, new plantings outside the shop, and headway on our new website. Maybe this week I'll have time to share more!
This stunning portrait of our beautiful bride Anne from .sky.images took my breath away!
