“I met Katharina Stuart years before I even met my husband. I went with a friend to a wedding show and saw the most amazing flower arrangements and floral art (think purses, jewelry boxes, and wall hangings made of flowers) at Katharina's booth. My jaw dropped at how amazing her visual and aesthetic style is. I kept her name for years, knowing one day I would want her to do my wedding. Years later when I was finally engaged myself, I went right back to Katharina to start the wedding planning process. Katharina has such a calm demeanor, and I remember her talking to me one night when I was having a meltdown about the theme and design of our wedding. Yes, most weddings don't need a theme, but being an event planner myself, I had a high bar to reach, and we wanted something special for ourselves and our guests. In our case, we wanted to transform a winery into an intimate venue, like a dinner party at a mansion full of curiosities, mysteries, and wonders. The surprise would be a speakeasy in a secret wine barrel room with a live band. It was quite a lot to pull off, and we basically had a bare room to start with. Katharina walked me through the design and vision, and she listed very clear pros/cons about each choice and decision I was waffling over. Katharina is not just a florist, but also a wedding designer. With her help, she had our wedding back on track, helping us to select the furniture, put together art pieces, screenprint the names of our guests and their table assignments onto an antique mirror, and of course flowers galore. Our flower arrangements weren't just any kind either... we asked for unique art pieces on each table, drift wood, birds nests, orchids on branches, butterflies perched on plants, and flowers under bell jars. To this day, people tell me that our wedding was the most beautiful they had ever been to and the kind of thing they only see in movies. If you want a florist who is incredibly professional, creates gorgeous arrangements that are borderline works of art, and/or someone who can help you design the perfect event, then you MUST contact Katharina. Don't sell yourself short or underestimate how important it is to have a good florist and designer! :)”
