I'm Emilia of Emilia's Flowers. I have been working with flowers for over 14 years now. Flowers were always my passion. It wasn't until creating my daughter's floral arrangements for her Quinceañera that I decided to start Emilia's Flowers! I've always been an entrepreneur, but embarking on this journey has made my heart sing! I love the planning and creative process. I love to sit down with my clients and learn about what they want and how we can put all the pieces together to make their event truly their vision. My absolute favorite part is to watch the happy couple be wed amongst their family and friends, surrounded by all the beautiful décor I helped have a hand in. Flowers make every occasion tender and beautiful. I continue update my skill by taking floral classes and I just got accredited with by the Floral Design Institute because I took the advance floral design and passed. Now I could add my FDI to my name.
I especially love partnering with my daughter, to have a shared passion is exciting and unique. I love working out new ideas with her, and watching us create something that came from both our imaginations. Being able to support her and other queer couples is also very important to me. I want EVERYONE to feel comfortable with us! Emilia B FDI |
I'm Artemisa, the daughter of the one and only Emilia, the master mind behind Emilia's Flowers! Me and my mom are super close and it has been such a wonderful adventure teaming up with her on this floral entrepreneurial journey. I've always loved watching her work with flowers, a smile stays on her face and her whole being lights up! It became contagious! One day she needed a little extra help for a wedding, and after crafting my own bouquet for the first time, I was hooked. I love all the textures and colors flowers have. They speak their own language and arranging flowers together becomes a beautiful story in itself. What I love the most are our client's and guests reactions to our floral creations. They become just as spell bound, just as in awe of the natural magic flowers possess. It spreads love and light, which is my personal purpose on this earth.
As a queer woman of color who navigated wedding planning a handful of years ago, I know what it can feel like stepping into the heteronormative realm of weddings businesses and working with people whose client's are typically a bride and groom. While some businesses stated they were inclusive, we did not always FEEL included. Breathe easy, Emilia's Flowers LOVES doing queer weddings and trust you will find a warm and accepting environment with us. We want to honor you and your partner's wishes, cultural practices, and traditions. |
