Every arrangement we create is designed from scratch using the freshest seasonal flowers available. Rather than relying on recipes or cookie-cutter designs, we focus on color, texture, movement, and creating flowers that feel personal and memorable. Our style is artistic, garden-inspired, and improvisational—the opposite of mass-produced floral arrangements. Every order is thoughtfully designed for the recipient, not pulled from a catalog.
Absolutely. Sculptural, asymmetrical, moody, colorful, or completely unexpected—we love creating custom flower arrangements that don't look like everyone else's. If you have a vision, send us a few inspiration photos or simply tell us, “Make it weird.” We'll take it from there.

From there, we'll refine the design together, finalize all the details about 30 days before your wedding, and take care of everything on the big day.

Yes. We design and install large-scale orchid displays for homes, hotels, restaurants, offices, retail spaces, and luxury residences throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. We also provide ongoing orchid and plant maintenance for residential and commercial clients. Orchids are one of our favorite design elements because they're elegant, long-lasting, and make a dramatic statement in any space.
Orchids are surprisingly easy to care for. Water each plant with about a shot glass of water once a week, allow the roots to dry between waterings, and never let the pot sit in standing water. If your arrangement contains multiple orchid plants, check beneath the moss to make sure each root ball receives water.
Pretty much. Orchids prefer a light touch and are one of the easiest houseplants to overwater. Give your orchid about a shot glass of water once a week, let it dry out between waterings, and never let it sit in standing water. Unlike most houseplants, orchids naturally grow on trees with their roots exposed to fresh air, so less attention is often better.
Your orchid should look beautiful for about 30 days and continue looking great for another 30 days with proper care. We replace orchids monthly for many of our hotel and corporate clients, so our standards are admittedly high. Once the blooms have finished, your orchid is still a healthy plant. With the right care, it can bloom again. Simply trim the flower spike and follow a good orchid reblooming guide to encourage a new spike.
