our invitation to you

Whether you are planning an intimate elopement among the giant boulders of Joshua Tree National Park or coordinating a destination wedding from across the country, we are here to bring your vision to life.

We believe your wedding florals should reflect your values as much as your personal style. As an LGBTQIA+ woman-owned studio, we have built a genuinely safe, celebratory space where every love story belongs. Our commitment to the earth means we grow many of our own native plants, compost post-event materials, and reuse our styling structures. We want to help you create a beautiful day that respects the delicate desert we call home.

designing your floral story

Every wedding begins with a conversation. We want to understand what you value, how you want your space to feel, and how we can bring the spirit of the desert into your designs.

what to expect when we work together

We start with a quick questionnaire to understand your styling ideas and floral needs.

1

We gather for a friendly video consultation to share ideas, look at visual references, and map out a creative plan.

2

We source responsibly by gathering native stems from our own Mojave Garden and working with local flower farmers.

3

We design for reuse by using beautiful rentals, potted desert plants, and compostable elements that protect the soil.

the wedding experience

artistry and stewardship combined

Your celebration is unique to you, and your florals should reflect that individuality. We design weddings as living compositions that are rooted in this specific landscape, the changing seasons, and the feelings of the day. We focus on custom designs instead of rigid templates or pre-made packages. Our work brings creative artistry and ecology together in a thoughtful way.

We view your bouquets and personal florals as intimate works of art. We design them in conversation with the desert setting, the season, and the people who will carry them throughout the day.

Our perspective is shaped by contrast after years of designing across different landscapes. We combine natural structure with a sense of playful curiosity. This creates floral work that is grounded, expressive, and closely connected to its environment. We focus on shaping the entire atmosphere of your venue. Through thoughtful scale, texture, and placement, we design spaces that feel alive and welcoming for you and your guests.

This is a creative process that prioritizes how your day feels, moves, and is remembered.

our creative philosophy

We work with couples who value thoughtful craftsmanship, artistic style, and care for our natural world. Protecting the desert is not an upgrade or an optional line item on our bills. Ecology is the foundational framework that guides every decision we make, from our first design sketch to our final clean-up.

We use a creative investment approach instead of itemizing your florals stem by stem. This cooperative method allows us to allocate your budget where it will make the most impact. We can focus your resources on a beautiful ceremony installation, rich table styling, or refined bouquets depending on what matters most to you.

We only accept a limited number of weddings each year to maintain the quality and care of our work. This select schedule allows us to give your celebration our full creative energy, skilled styling, and hands-on stewardship from start to finish.

intimate curations + elopements

This experience is designed for celebrations that prioritize close connections and a quiet presence in the landscape.

We focus our attention on the pieces closest to you, including sculptural bouquets, wearable floral art, and small ceremony features designed to look like they grew naturally from the desert surroundings. We love proving that a smaller celebration can be beautifully designed, artful, and gentle on the earth.

The investment for this path typically falls between $2,500 - $5,000.

sustainability at our core

We gather seasonal plants from our Mojave Garden and local partners, working in harmony with the natural environment rather than trying to force it to change. Our design structures are foam-free and reusable. We handle the full setup and carefully manage post-event care to make sure all materials are responsibly composted, donated, or replanted.

our design experiences

Every path we offer is crafted with the same high level of care, artistic style, and respect for the earth. The differences below simply reflect the physical scale of your celebration, not the quality of our creative attention.

the signature experience

A just-married couple holds each other closely as they stand between two ground floral arrangements mixed with different levels of candles. One partner holds a colorful asymmetrical bouquet and the other partner has a matching small boutonniere.

We view your venue as a canvas where your celebration tells one continuous story.

Rather than styling pieces in isolation, we look at your design budget as a single pool of resources. This lets us focus our work where it will make the most impact for you and your guests. We design layered ceremony spaces, beautiful transitions, and reception styling that welcomes everyone in. Your personal bouquets act as the opening chapter of this story, introducing your color palette and natural textures. We often build designs that serve multiple purposes, like ceremony elements that we transition into your reception decor.

Most of our clients invest $5,000 – $10,000 for this experience.

sustainability at our core

We manage all logistics, styling, and post-event strike with the earth in mind. Through our Afterglow program, we make sure your flowers have a second life. We never abandon materials or leave waste behind for venue staff to manage.

the immersive celebration

This is a deep creative partnership built to create a highly personalized floral environment.

We design a complete floral language for your entire day. We handle everything from sculptural bouquets and custom tablescapes to large-scale installations that change how your venue is experienced. We pair ambitious design ideas with careful technical planning, using strong on-site production management and earth-friendly mechanics.

These custom environments begin around $10,000+.

sustainability at our core

Our environmental commitment remains strong even at this larger scale. We build our large installations using reusable support structures, reclaimed materials, and biodegradable components. We oversee the full lifecycle of your flowers from local sourcing to late-night clean-up, creating a beautiful celebration that respects the desert.

comparing our design experiences

Let us look at how these three paths compare side by side so you can choose the right fit for your celebration.

Intimate curations + elopements are designed for smaller gatherings. We focus our styling on personal flowers and a small number of high-impact design moments.

full-scope floral production

We do not believe in cutting corners. True stewardship means doing the heavy physical work properly from start to finish.

Our role goes far beyond simply delivering flowers to your venue. Designing large-scale installations in the desert requires careful technical planning, structural engineering, and physical labor that often goes unseen.

Our hands-on production includes:

Structural planning for foam-free installations that are completely safe, stable, and approved by your venue.

Direct coordination with your venue managers regarding access times, unloading logistics, and utility setups.

On-site styling transitions, including moving your beautiful ceremony flowers into your reception space to get the most out of your investment.

This comprehensive approach protects your creative vision, respects the local venue, and gives you real peace of mind. It is the difference between simple decoration and professional production.

the sustainable difference

When you choose our studio, you are supporting a slower, more responsible way of celebrating.

Sourcing from the land means our designs are guided by the natural climate, place, and season of the Mojave Desert.

Using foam-free practices means we only build with reusable mechanics and biodegradable materials to keep toxic plastics out of the soil.

Our Afterglow repurposing program makes sure your flowers are collected after the celebration to be donated, composted, or returned to the soil with purpose.

Maintaining a zero-waste mindset means minimizing single-use plastics and taking full accountability for the lifecycle of our designs.

Your wedding flowers
are temporary,
but their footprint
does not have to be.

sustainability beyond the buzzword

We do not think beautiful celebrations should come at the expense of the earth. Here is how we keep our practices transparent, honest, and kind:

We buy local first by sourcing our flowers from nearby farms and growers to support our community and reduce transport emissions.

We work with the seasons by styling with plants that are naturally in bloom so they look healthy and last longer.

We choose rentals over single-use items by offering beautiful pedestals, candles, and styling props that can be loved again and again.

Our Afterglow service is when we gather your flowers at the end of the night to compost or repurpose them so nothing goes to waste.

We share the joy by donating usable flowers to local community spaces, shelters, or other non-profits in our area after your celebration.

We skip toxic floral foam entirely, opting for reusable wire and organic structures that support the environment.

pre-wedding parties + workshops

We love celebrating every part of your journey. If you are hosting a rehearsal dinner, a welcome party, or a bridal shower, we can design beautiful flowers for those events as well. Let us know when you reach out and we will gladly include those plans in our conversation.

If you want a creative group activity for your wedding party, you can book a private styling workshop with us. Gather your favorite people in our Joshua Tree studio to learn the art of organic design. We can set up a custom flower bar, teach you to build wild flower crowns, or guide you through styling your own arrangements.

frequently asked questions about wedding florals

How do florists source sustainable or local flowers?

We prioritize working with growers who use ethical, sustainable practices, often locally or regionally. This means fresher flowers, a smaller carbon footprint, and support for responsible farming. Sourcing sustainable flowers requires more planning and care than grabbing whatever is on a store shelf.

Can I rent vases and floral supplies instead of buying them?

Yes! We offer rentals of vases, votive holders, and other materials to reduce waste and cost. Renting also makes it easier to coordinate your look without the hassle of buying and storing everything or using multiple vendors.

How involved will I be in the floral design process?

That depends on you! Some clients love collaborating closely and approving mockups, while others prefer to hand over the vision and trust the florist. We adjust the process to your preferences to make sure you feel comfortable and excited.

Why can't I just send my florist a Pinterest photo and expect a copy?

Pinterest photos are great for inspiration, but each florist interprets designs differently based on style, venue, seasonality, and flower availability. We create a custom design that fits your unique wedding and vision inspired by your ideas but created with our artistic expertise.

How do you ensure flowers stay fresh on the wedding day?

We hydrate flowers carefully, store them in temperature-controlled buckets, and time deliveries so they arrive fresh. We also prep on-site to arrange and style just before the event, ensuring maximum freshness and longevity.

Can you handle large or high-end weddings?

Yes! We specialize in managing weddings of all sizes, including large-scale and high-end events. Our team of experienced freelance floral designers and trusted event partners ensures every detail is executed flawlessly, no matter the scope.

Do you offer custom design consultations for premium weddings?

Absolutely. For clients investing in larger or more intricate floral designs, we provide personalized design consultations and mockups to bring your vision to life with precision and elegance.

How do you coordinate with other vendors for big events?

We work closely with your entire wedding team - planners, venue staff, caterers, photographers - to ensure seamless timing and setup. Our goal is to make the floral experience effortless and spectacular from start to finish.

Why do wedding flowers cost so much?

Wedding flowers involve much more than just buying flowers. We source ethically grown, fresh flowers that often come in bunches, not singles. We design custom arrangements tailored to your vision, spend hours prepping and arranging, coordinate deliveries, manage setup, and handle any on-site issues. All this takes time, skill, and resources, which is reflected in the cost. Here's an article that gives more details about what goes into creating your perfect arrangements.

Can I buy flowers myself from a grocery store or market to save money?

You can! Many couples choose to DIY some or all of their wedding florals using flowers from public markets, Costco, or Trader Joe's. However, keep in mind that DIY requires time, floral knowledge, and equipment. Florists have access to unique, higher-quality flowers and professional prep that help flowers last longer and look beautiful. We have an article on DIY flowers.

Can a floral designer help me save time and reduce stress?

Absolutely. Hiring a professional means we handle sourcing, prep, setup, and troubleshooting, freeing you from worrying about flowers in the days leading up to and during your wedding. It lets you focus on enjoying your celebration instead of managing logistics. We have an article about what you're investing in when you hire a pro.

What if my budget is limited?

We love working with a range of budgets and can customize packages to fit your style and needs. With that said, we do have a minimum starting point to ensure we can deliver the quality and service you deserve. Being upfront about your budget helps us create beautiful, realistic options just for you.
