I love sending people flowers. It’s a gracious gesture and one that adds a bright and often unexpected touch to someone’s week. In our design projects, floral arrangements of all types often go the distance as a “finishing touch” styling moment, especially for photoshoots. So when I sat down to put together our first “service article” for Archive – a city-by-city guide to our favorite florists, I decided to call on some of MY favorite tastemakers, for their favorite picks.
I’m so honored and humbled by the reply – from coast to coast, talented friends share their “picks” for florists, and why they love them. Thanks a “bunch” to all who helped me put this list together – save this page, share this list and try out some of these designer-approved florists, next time the occasion calls for flowers. Or better yet, when the occasion is “just because.”
