 FAQs

  • After nearly a decade as Thistle & Bloom Florals & Design, we've grown into our own distinct creative directions, each with a renewed excitement for what comes next.

    For Summer, that means the beginning of A Summer Muse — a natural evolution of her love for floral design, thoughtful details, and creating an entire experience. With expanded offerings in event design, custom textiles, drapery, and creative installations, the new name reflects a broader vision, and the many unexpected places inspiration can begin.

  • My floral design services begin at $5,000, with most couples investing between $8,000 and $30,000.

    I also design larger-scale celebrations with investments well beyond this range, incorporating elaborate floral installations and more immersive design elements.

    Every proposal is thoughtfully tailored to the scale, setting, and creative vision of each celebration.

  • Floral design is both an art and a highly detailed, labor-intensive process.

    Your investment reflects not only the blooms themselves, but the sourcing, design, installation, and overall experience. From large-scale installations to thoughtfully layered arrangements, each element is created with intention to ensure your celebration feels cohesive and elevated.

    The scale of your event, flower selection, and level of customization all play a role in your final investment.

  • I’ll guide you.

    Some couples are looking for a fully immersive, high-touch design experience, while others want beautifully curated florals to complement their celebration.

    Based on your vision, priorities, and investment range, I’ll recommend the best approach—and ensure you’re supported by the right designer on our team.

  • Wedding planning focuses on the logistics, while event design focuses on the creative vision and overall experience.

    My role is to imagine and bring together every visual element of your celebration, from florals, furnishings, and textiles to lighting, custom installations, and the smallest personal details.

    For full event design clients, professional wedding-day coordination is also included. Your coordinator manages the timeline, vendors, and behind-the-scenes logistics, allowing you to enjoy the celebration while I focus on bringing the design to lite.

    It's a comprehensive approach that brings creative direction and wedding-day execution together.

  • Every experience is tailored, but may include personal florals, ceremony installations, reception designs, and thoughtful details throughout your space.

    For full-service clients, I also provide creative direction—bringing together florals, textures, and visual elements into one cohesive design.

    I handle delivery, setup, and breakdown so everything feels seamless from start to finish.

  • My process is collaborative, thoughtful, and tailored to you.

    I begin by getting to know your vision and priorities, then design with intention—curating each floral and visual element to feel cohesive and elevated. From there, I bring everything to life seamlessly so you can be fully present on your day.

  • I recommend booking 9–12 months in advance, especially for peak wedding seasons.

    I take on a limited number of events each year to ensure every celebration receives our full attention, so early inquiries are encouraged.
