Cole Dewey Designs

I started my floral design career with my mother, in a small design studio, very similar to mine, where she planned weddings, and I was her designer. I was fortunate to have complete artistic freedom, giving me to ability to develop my natural eye for style. This is where the world of wedding flowers opened up to me. I became passionate about turning ideas into a bride's vision for the most important day of her life. That passion gave me an outlet to turn wedding flowers into art.

When I was presented with the opportunity go out on my own, I took it! I decided that I would rather have a flower shop specializing in wedding flowers than a more traditional shop. I love all aspects of the flowers business, but its wedding flowers that really get me excited!

I believe that designing flowers for a wedding is completely different than designing day to day flowers. I think it is specific to each bride and I only approach it that way. I meet with my clients first to get a feel for their style. We flip through magazines, brainstorm and bounce ideas off of each other. Then, I create a custom proposal, keeping all of that in mind. When the time comes to design, I am involved in every aspect, from ordering flowers to final set-up. Nothing leaves my shop without my hands touching it.

Some things you should know about me…My style is very free. While your flowers should reflect your unique style, it's inevitable that mine will come through too. I like to mix tradition with modern. I like to try new ideas and techniques to make each wedding unique. I can take inspiration from other designers' work, but I don't copy pictures. (Remember, this is my art!) I prefer flowers to have a natural quality. If it looks like it's growing there, I think it's beautiful. I don't like flowers to look real "fixed". I'm very detail oriented. I think the details add to the overall look. I am very nostalgic...I think your wedding should have some inspiration from your past. I have a very hard time with typical flowers that you see all the time. The best compliment you can give me is, "I've never seen anything like this before!"

I'd love for you to visit my website and then come in and let's talk flowers! Happy Planning!!
