Part 2 of our Ask a Wedding Florist series dives into the most common questions about the design process of a weddings and events florist in the San Francisco Bay Area. From the initial inquiry process, to the sketches, moodboards, and renderings, to how we go about choosing flowers, and more!

I'm pulling back the curtain! If you’ve ever wondered what a wedding and event florist REALLY does besides playing with beautiful flowers, this series is for you! This post covers questions like "What does a wedding florist actually do?" to “How much do wedding flowers cost?” to “Where do you get your flowers?” and more.

The details of where exactly my journey into the world of flowers began, and how I've committed to evolving my craft over the last 19 (!!!) years.

A peak into my design process and inspiration behind an event design inspired by the Pantone Color of the Year: Mocha Mousse.

I’d like to share with you a part of my creative process that I’ve found really helpful, especially in the past few weeks: vision boarding. Vision boarding is a tool I’ve implemented both in my personal life and in my business. Here’s what you’ll find in this post:

• The truth about vision boards

• Step-by-step instructions to create an effective vision board

• 3 real life examples of vision boards I’ve created
