Flower and Funk

Karli & Magner, 3.29.25 When my friend Karli asked me to do her wedding flowers and told me to have fun, I did just that. Karli’s connection with an orchid grower meant phalaenopsis orchids were pouring out of everything, and I was able to add some locally grown flowers from a friend’s garden (and my own) for a special touch. A little rain couldn’t stop Karli from smiling, and her love of Magner and Jesus shone through the whole event. Thanks for asking me to be a part of your day.

A vanilla ice cream-scented 🍨orchid with trailing roots made Ariel’s bouquet is one of my most artful to date. Made up entirely of five different cultivars of orchids—including a living, vanilla ice cream-scented orchid with dramatic roots—this bouquet was simple enough to not distract from Ariel‘s intricate dress, while special enough to create a unique, lasting impact on her wedding day.

Our first look from this spring editorial at Naples Botanical, featuring the dreamiest all-white hyacinth bouquet by Flower and Funk paired with vintage lace and a classic ball gown silhouette.

A glimpse into the “Best in Show” tablescape I designed with @carriebrighamdesign for @naplestables , featuring antique dog show trophies and ribbons, vintage pewder dogs, everything from orchids to radicchios to dill flowers from my garden, and the crowning jewels: coordinating custom linens fabricated by @schumacher_florida Carrie’s team and I worked hand-in-hand to create the color palette and theme, source antiques, and styling for this special event. It was an honor to work with such talented creatives on this design and truly one of my favorite projects to date! Photos courtesy of The League Club.

Some days feel like they were written by love itself—and this was one of them. Celebrating Audrey and Logan is easy to do 🤍💍🦢

Make a hyacinth bridal bouquet with me 🪻 For a styled shoot at my favorite place, @naplesbotanical shot by @millersphotoandfilm and starring @addicampbelll 🫶🏼 Hyacinth chains are all the rage right now, and this is my slightly more organic take on the viral trend. I started by stripping about eight open hyacinths of their florets and put them in my hydration tupperware overnight (a method I learned from @passionflowersue to keep the florets hydrated). I used thin and flexible wire to string the florets at various lengths, then a rigid wire to enforce my hyacinth flowers to created a simple bouquet structure. I then added the wires of my strung florets, weaving them though the existing flowers to create a more organic look. One thing that was important to me when making this bouquet is for it to look like it could all be one flower; I really wanted the strung parts to be cohesive with the rest of the bouquet, so you couldn’t see where the flowers ended and the wires florets began. I artistically twisted the strung wire into rings, then finished the bouquet with floral tape and authentic vintage lace ribbon. This is a prime example of why you hire a florist for your wedding day: thoughtful mechanics and thoughtful preparation were key to making this bouquet. (Also, peep my garage studio. Aka just my garage.)
