Awarded Best of Zola
I had the most wonderful experience working with Molly from Olivia Rose Flower Co for my wedding. From start to finish, she made the process fun, simple, and enjoyable. Her proposal presentation was beautiful, and she proved that she really knows how to turn a vision into a reality. My floral budget was on the lower side, and she was able to work with me and find an assortment of florals that fit that budget comfortably. Her communication leading up to the wedding was great, and on the day of, she went so far above and beyond. I am still blown away and so grateful for how much consideration and effort she put into our wedding florals. Our space was BEAUTIFUL, and I feel as though the value for what we received was incredible. I can't recommend Molly highly enough!

Pozie By Natalie 

5.0

  • Serves Maple Falls, WA

Although I call Bellingham and the Pacific Northwest home now, I grew up on my family's farm in Michigan's rural Upper Peninsula, also known as 'the U.P.' At heart, I'm still and always will be a die-hard 'Yooper.' My dad, Chip, who is one of my biggest heroes, taught me how to grow, forage for, and arrange flowers around our farm while I was growing up. We used to make things together and sell them at the local farmers market on the weekends. So in some ways, I've been doing this work all my life. I started working in the floral industry in Bellingham before branching out on my own as Pozie by Natalie in 2015.

Natalie is not only an amazing person but a gifted florist. She creates amazing florals of any kind for any event! I highly recommend Natalie, she is wonderful!

Bloom Culture: Do-it-yourself Wedding Flowers

  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Maple Falls, WA

Bloom Culture helps couples DIY their wedding flowers with confidence — even if you’ve never arranged flowers before. We ship wholesale flowers to your door and provide a full plan that shows you what to order, how much you need, and how to put everything together. You’ll know exactly how many stems go into each bouquet, centerpiece, boutonniere — and how to assemble them step-by-step. Choose one of our DIY flower kits or get a custom plan based on your colors, style, and budget.

Awarded Best of Zola
The flowers (on our order) came in large boxes, but they were not labeled, so it took a minute to get the flowers both identified and properly set up. To be fair we were warned about the process, but not about the length of time due to our inexperience. As a note, it took my fiancé 5 hours to process the flowers when first receiving them. I also did not have any updates from them from the time I ordered till they were being shipped. They were beyond more affordable compared to other florists, and the flowers arrived alive and in good spirits. We were able to keep the flowers alive for over four days!! Many of the flowers that we chose did not have specific instructions, so we had to follow the general reference for the flowers and hope for the best. Additionally, some of the flowers that we wanted were not in stock, and they were replaced for us with substitutes but were not notified until we had all of the flowers already delivered to us. Also, as a note, bloom culture uses third party sellers for their flowers, so the quality may vary depending on location. Our flowers were in good condition, and the company we had clearly took good care of the flowers prior to delivering them to us. Would we do it again? Probably not, but it made for good laughs and bonding time and we have stories to tell from it!

I truly enjoy how Maddie arranges her bouquets in such creative ways! The flowers are from her garden, and are what is blooming at the time. With that, it’s fun to get something unplanned AND to see what’s new for each week in the season. I have a subscription for a bouquet every other week, and it just adds joy to my day every time I look at her beautiful creations! (I’m sorry that I didn’t get a pic of her more recent blue-accented bouquet with sweet peas, but this one also didn’t disappoint!)

would give Colleen 10 stars if I could! She was so wonderful to work with. She really got to know me and my partner, took the time to understand our vision and ideas (and sift through the many notes and Pinterest boards I shared), and helped us create the perfect floral design. Colleen was incredibly responsive, flexible, and paid very close attention to detail. She also put together multiple proposals for us with many different options and price points that fit in our budget. And the finished product was even better than I could have imagined!

I love to create a cohesiveness that is too often overlooked in event planning and home design. Whether it’s florals, décor, table settings or art, they all need to be considered as a whole, to form a theme that comes together creating an unforgettable venue or event.

Pollen In Love is now 8 years in and has succesfully completed hundreds of weddings, all focused on personalized unique design that Victoria is known for.

I’ve gone to Victoria and Pollin In Live for multiple occassions at this point. When my husband and I got married in 2020, she was incredibly supportive when we had to push the reception back due to Covid. She ended up doing my bouquet and flowers for my dog’s collar to still make our elopement special! She then did a fabulous job with the flowers for our venue and wedding party the following year. I still have the comb with the dried flower arrangement she made for my hair. Later she did a beautiful wall art piece for our home based on photos I sent her. It hangs above our bed and really completed the room. Victoria listens to your requests, provides expert guidance, and will be sure to make your event beautiful.
