Ellie and Logan were married on July 5, 2015 at Moffitt Oaks in Tomball, TX. Ellie was the sweetest and most joyful bride I have had the honor of working with! Every stem she chose for her beautiful wedding had meaning and a significance that was dear to her, Logan or her family. It was an awesome experience putting it all together for her! The day was documented by the incredibly talented Kristen Kilpatrick.

Ah! One of the most beautiful weddings of the summer! It was pure JOY working with Lauren on her dream wedding! I met Lauren while we were at school at Texas A&M and was honored to be her florist for this important day! Enjoy these photos by Evoke Photography from their July 11th wedding. Fun fact, this was the very first wedding at the brand new (and absolutely stunning) Ashton Gardens Houston West location.

Hello! It has been a super busy summer for Flourish. I can hardly believe how blessed I have been with business and to be working with sweet and wonderful brides, many of who have turned from clients to friends! The Lord is good!
I haven’t really had the opportunity to blog about any of our weddings so I am going to do a little catching up with some of my favorite weddings from the summer!
First, I want to share some pictures from Sarah and Josh’s wedding from June. I met Sarah through mutual friends from SFA and was so excited to be working with her and Josh on their flowers to create a garden-like feel. They were married on June 14 at The Belltower Chapel and Garden in Fort Worth, TX. Here are some photos from the very talented Rachel Verdugo

What a busy weekend! But it was a blast. I loved experiencing my first Valentine’s day as a florist serving friends and students in College Station. Thank you to everyone who supported me by ordering flowers, I hope they made the recipient feel loved!
For Valentine’s, I’m not really a fan of the traditional arrangement of red roses. If it were me getting flowers, I’d much rather have a bright mix of different colors and textures for a fresh and youthful look! So for my orders I used one of my favorite roses, Pink Floyd, which is a vibrant hot pink rose that opens up big and beautiful! I also chose to use pink majolica spray roses, pink lisianthus, peach stock, red ranunculus, and pink and red tulips. I love greenery! So I used a mix of variegated pittosporum, feathery plumosa, salal, and dusty miller.
Valentine’s wasn’t the only project Flourish had this weekend though!
I had the opportunity to partner with an extremely talented photographer, Whitney Gilmer of W. Gilmer Photography, on Sunday to create some beautiful newborn portraits. For the session, we did an adorable flower crown made out of peachy Isle spray roses as well as the cute wreath around her.
HOW PRECIOUS IS THIS PICTURE! I love it and loved getting to work with Whitney! Check out her work here.
But the weekend doesn’t end there! Flourish also did some designs for our friends in Aggie Theta for their preview day on Sunday! These designs included white hydrangea, peach stock, a beautiful blush rose called Trust, a few Pink Floyd roses, Isle spray roses, hypericum berries, hot pink ranunculus and seeded eucalyptus. It looked great with gold accents at the event! And this tin container from Hobby Lobby was awesome and looked great with the flowers.
I hope y’all had had a great Valentine’s weekend and felt loved!

I got the honor of coming up with some fun florals for a friend’s bridal shower this week!
My guidelines were “something mature but girly” Here’s some pictures of what we created!
First step was the greenery! I used a mix of seeded eucalyptus, israeli ruscus and variegated pittosporum (foraged from my front yard!)
Next I added these amazing caramel roses! I love their color!
Excuse my messy kitchen, but here’s the garland all finished after I added a few stems of white veronica.
It looked great on that white mantel! And how cute is that banner? “I love you a brunch”
These little guys tagged along for the shower. Mixed vases with the same flowers as the garland!
What a great little weekend project!
Thanks for checking it out!

I would like to give a HUGE thank you to Jacob Richie for these absolutely gorgeous photos and to Lori Richie for the fabulous location for this shoot and design! I couldn’t have done it without y’all!
We had a few friends that wanted to be in the pictures! Frank the mule and Rockie the cat!
