We cannot put into words the feelings the flowers for our wedding evoked in us. Alisa took the ideas from my head and translated them effortlessly into floral design.

I was obsessed with my bridal bouquet and love love loved the table arrangements!! Alisa immediately understood the vibe I wanted (big flowy arrangements for the ceremony and still life-inspired tablescapes) and absolutely nailed it. I also appreciate her transparency about pricing and what she could offer within our budget.
- Elizabeth & Kieran
It was an absolute pleasure working with Alisa - her exceptional eye and exceptional design brought so much life, whimsy and love to our wedding day.
- Ellie & Adam
We appreciated Alisa's artistic expertise and her thoughtfulness around sustainability. She was a dream vendor to work with, easily collaborated with all our other vendors, and handled two venues on the same day with efficiency. On top of that, she is a sweet and calming person to be around, and you can tell how much she loves her craft.

Some of the most beautiful and artistically styled flowers I’ve ever received! The only thing better than the design quality and freshness of the flowers was knowing that I am supporting a local mom and entrepreneur. Highly recommend!

I could tell right away from the initial floral design boards and the way Alisa talked about what she does - the language she used, the insightful way she presented concepts and the way she expressed her goal for the wedding that Alisa would make something special happen. The flowers for the cocktail hour were so lovely and perfect. And then, when I walked into the cafe and looked at the banquet tables I was totally captivated. Alisa has an artist's eye and spirit.

Love Malva & Moss! Typical of the bay area, I was hosting a very specific kind of baby shower - almost a non-baby shower, baby shower. While this might challenge the most tenured of floral artists, not Alisa. Alisa asked for as much detail as I could give her - and she whipped up a style board for this woodland flower centerpiece. The finished product featured mauve and white chrysanthemums, pops of dark purples, elegant black leaves, and small green flowers (which I love!). The mother-to-be adored the subtle, yet elegant bouquet, and it truly was a highlight for the event.
