If you’re looking for big, blown out roses or out of season flowers, then we probably aren’t for you. We choose to work with nature and the environment, not against it.

Zoé and Jonas’s ceremony aisle looked like an extension of Wave Hill’s gardens…just the way we like it 😍

I get asked to do the whites and warm neutrals quite a bit, but it’s the primaries that make my heart sing 💛

Thank you Zoé and Jonas for the opportunity to bring your fun, colorful, al fresco garden party to life 🌈

Good morning! Here for some Friday morning real talk. Fact about me, bridal bouquets have never been my favorite things to make. Everyone who works with me knows this. I’ll gripe about it for hours before starting. When I do start, I need full concentration and no one can talk to me while I’m in the process. Sometimes while making, I’ll death grip and have to start over…3x. I got a download this spring that I think some of it comes from when I was learning to first work with and make flowers, I experienced a situation that I have never forgotten and well, it’s caused some bridal bouquet PTSD. More on that some other day.

But I keep working on it, talking about it and I honestly think I’m almost through it. And most days, I even deliver the bouquet with a big giant smile.

Here’s a look at Emma’s bouquet made with a plethora of late season ranunculus. And I absolutely loved the texture of that rice flower.

We had a crazy run of 5 events, over 5 weeks and the flower fog is finally lifting. We started the season on May 18th at the New York Athletic Club with one of the best, 💕

I think we produced one of my all time favorite installs (bold statement!) that weekend. But let’s start with Emma’s bouquet made of the most perfect ranunculus.

I haven’t had much love for these tiny squares lately. It’s been super busy around here and it’s felt more important for me to live my life in real time in between the seams rather than put the time and effort in to be seen on social media.

We have another big one this weekend and this week I’ve been restructuring our original plan and all of our flower orders because of this heat wave we are embarking on. Cut hydrangea just ain’t gonna make it in an outside ceremony set up when it’s 95 degrees 🤪

We have created some of our very best work this season and when I come out on the other side, I promise to do my best to share it with you.

Gathering around a table and inviting others to pull up a chair matters. Gathering around a table encourages conversation, develops connection and invites community.

One of my favorite parts of being a florist is creating creative and unique environments which offer a feeling of welcoming, a seat for belonging and a space for deepening relationships.

My morning commute looks a bit different these days.

Rather than bundling up at 4:45am, driving to the NYC flower market and beginning my flower shop before 6am, my current commute requires less clothes and is walkable. My vehicle is my surfboard and I start most days in the ocean as the sun is rising. The only other commuters are fish, giant sea turtles and a handful of folks who enjoy a DP session as much as me. As soon as other people start to roll into the ocean, I make my way out and start my work day.

Work has also been a bit different since I landed here. Before leaving NYC for the winter, I was booking lots of jobs for the 2024 season and most of them were single bids. Meaning I did not have to throw my hat in a ring with other florists, all jockeying for the same job. Just this week, I have lost 3 jobs and to be honest with you, losing a job still stings and I am not sure if the burn of losing a job will ever go away. I tap into my best yogi self, “there’s just something better out there for me”, “losing this job is just making space for something else which is more aligned with me”, but after losing 3, the ego gets bruised and you start to question, why?

A lot of it comes down to money. Since the pandemic, there is now a plethora of new floral designers who make really beautiful flowers, many who are willing to do the same job for less in order to build a website, make connections or gain a social media presence. If I am bidding against other designers, I have lost jobs because I will not do a full design deck before the job awards. It seems unfair to me to give away my ideas and my time for free, then have another designer get the job. I do wish there was an industry standard for bidding and that we all approached this process the same way. A bigger conversation for another day. (continued in comments)

samastha lokah sukhino bhavantu

as the sun was rising this morning, i repeated this mantra 108 times in an effort to radiate a prayer of love for the world around us ☀️

“may all beings everywhere be happy and free, and may the thoughts, words and actions of my own life contribute in some way to that happiness and to that freedom for all”.

shanti shanti shanti 💛

This could be one of my all time favorite ceremony installs. Using just a handful of ingredients - 450 stems of cut hydrangea, two varieties of spirea, indigo and Niagara Falls grasses, we created a lot of impact in just 40 minutes. That’s right, we had just 40 minutes to set up 70ft of aisle. How did we do it? A lot of planning, prep, organization and hustling! I’ll be sharing a behind the scenes reel later this week. * * * #nycweddings #nyflorist #brooklynflorist #brooklynweddings #nycflorist #nycfloraldesigner #instaflowers #flowerstagram #springflowers #fallweddings #floralworkshop #summerflowers #lessismore #winterweddings #springweddings #summerweddings #lesswasteevent #floralfoamfree #foamfree #blooms #localflowers #flowersofinstagram #flowersofig #dsfloral #sustainable #hamptonsweddings #montaukweddings #upstateweddings #lessismore

This water baby’s dream commute! We are moving to a dreamy, spacious, light filled studio with some pretty incredible, like minded florists in August and I wanted to bring you along on my new commute! A walk on the boardwalk, a hop on the ferry and poof! I’m there!! I’ve been visualizing this exact studio in my mind for a year now. I’m just here to remind you to keep dreaming…keep manifesting…keep believing. It’s all there waiting for you, you just have to have faith and trust ✨💫 - - - #nycweddings #nyflorist #brooklynflorist #brooklynweddings #nycflorist #nycfloraldesigner #instaflowers #flowerstagram #springflowers #fallweddings #floral workshop #summerflowers #winterweddings #springweddings #summerweddings #lesswasteevent #floralfoamfree #foamfree #blooms #localflowers #flowersofinstagram #flowersofig #dsfloral #sustainable #hamptonsweddings #montaukweddings #upstateweddings #lessismore

One of the best parts of this job? All of the clients we meet and have the opportunity to connect with along the way. Our goal is to create not just a day, but an entire experience that is curated especially just for you. The only way we can do this successfully is to take the time and really get to know each and every one of you. I absolutely love the human connection part of my job and I honestly, think it what makes us good at what we do because by getting to really know our clients, we are able to create super specific, one of a kind events. Thanks to social media, I have been able to stay connected with so many of you throughout the years. If you have worked with us and see this, say hi! I’d love to hear from you! Thank you to all of my past and present clients. You guys keep creating and going. Much love, Amy * * * All professional photos at the end by @the_evergreencollective * * * #nycweddings #nyflorist #brooklynflorist #brooklynweddings #nycflorist #nycfloraldesigner #instaflowers #springflowers #fallweddings #summerflowers #winterweddings #springweddings #summerwerddings #lesswasteevent #floralfoamfree #foamfree #blooms #localflowers #flowersofinstagram #flowersofig #dsfloral #sustainable #hamptonsweddings #flowerart #montaukweddings #upstateweddings
