Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers

Starts at $350
Serves Phippsburg, CO

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

“This was by far one of the best decisions and money savers I could’ve done for myself. The flowers were top quality, beautiful, and we had a blast putting them together with our family. Flower Mocie is simple and they have videos that will help you prepare in advance for your vision and piecing your bouquets together. I was quoted 5000 for florals by other vendors, but with flower moxie and a little creativity, we only spent 500 to cover 12 bouquets and 16 boutonnières. HIGGLY RECOMMEND”

If you are renting flowers, the return process is SO easy!”

Katharine has been preforming floristry for over a decade and loves creating unique designs. She loves to hear the back stories of how couples fell in love. This shines through in the floral selections and creates a special story. She creates sustainable mechanics ~ Dual purpose. ~ Reusable materials. ~ Compostable. She guides and supports clients about being foam free and how these practices can still create lush, large, and romantic installations. As a wedding florist based in the picturesque landscapes of Colorado, she understands the significance of creating floral masterpieces that not only enchant but also honor our environment.

“I cannot reccomend Kat enough. A coworker relationship turned into friendship that FLOURISHED into her making my floral dreams for my wedding come to absolute life. She is so talented, knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. I showed her pictures and she ran with it. Her dedication to her clients doesn’t go unnoticed at all. When my vendor who made our faux flowers showed up late and the guys bouts looked like absolute trash, she took the time (because she had leftovers from what she made) to go make 3 other bouts so that our dream came true. Her dedication to sustainability is top notch! I am so happy I chose her to be our florist! Her partner Marissa- though we didn’t use her for our wedding, I have inquired with her for cupcakes before. She has the best ideas for cupcakes and is so so friendly! As a team their day of coordination is top notch. They are the REAL DEAL! Make sure to hire them for you big day. You won’t regret it!”

“We are so grateful we chose Privé Events as our wedding florist. Working with Sam Hoffman was truly a game changer. Neither of us knows much about flowers, and we were honestly a bit overwhelmed at the thought of having to figure out floral design. But Sam made the process feel so easy and approachable. She met us exactly where we were. We knew we wanted something simple, elegant, and cost-conscious, and she delivered on every front without ever making us feel like we had to compromise on beauty or vision. Sam never made us feel pressured to “reinvent the wheel,” and instead helped us create something that felt natural, timeless, and just right for us. The communication was clear and low-stress from start to finish, and the end result completely exceeded our expectations. Privé Events provided everything from bouquets and aisle markers to greenery on the venue’s wooden beams, a stunning floral chuppah, and gorgeous bud vases and table arrangements for the reception. Every detail was thoughtfully done and beautifully placed. It all came together perfectly and really elevated the atmosphere of the entire day. We can't recommend Privé Events and Sam enough, especially for couples looking for someone who gets it and can bring your vision to life without stress or pressure. She made it feel effortless and fun, and we truly loved working with her.”

Hi there, I’m Brandice and I LOVE flowers! It is my passion to create unique designs that will take your breath away. I love incorporating the unexpected, foraging for the best textures, and combining all that beauty into one heck of a magical botanical creation. I would love to be a part of all the beauty that goes into the most memorable day of your lives. I can’t wait to hear your ideas and help make your wedding unforgettable.

“We booked Birch and Bramble Floral for our wedding and Brandice was absolutely incredible to work with!!! Personable, easy to work with, and provided florals that were better than we ever could have expected! Pricing is affordable and she was very transparent throughout the whole process with flower pricing so we could still get the flowers/arrangements we were hoping for. Brandice made us bouquets, multiple arrangements, table greenery, bud vases, corsages, and introduced us to pocket square boutonnieres (ask her about them, the groomsmen loved them so much more than traditional boutonnieres!) She created photo albums of each arrangement's intended flowers so that we could get an idea of what the final product would look like and to pick and choose any flowers we loved or didn't love. She also travels, and for such a reasonable price! She brought all our florals up to the mountains on our wedding day and set up arrangements which was very helpful! Not to mention, the amount of compliments the florals got from our guests the day-of, we were just blown away! We truly cannot speak highly enough of Brandice, her floral design skills, and how amazing she was to work with, every meeting with her had me laughing and feeling much less bride-stressed! We would absolutely hire her again and recommend her to everyone!”
