About

We are both farmers and floral designers. The philosophy behind our floral design is 'seed-to-centerpiece' - that means 100% of the flowers and plant material we use are grown on our farm, foraged from the fields and forests around us, or sourced in season from other local growers. As a result, our wedding flowers commemorate the time and place of your moment in ways that only local seasonal flowers can.

As farmers, we are driven to be up with the sun, working with plants and with our hands in the soil. We care for every plant from the time it is seeded until its blooms are harvested and brought into our studio in the barn. As floral designers, we are inspired by what we see and feel working in the field every day. Our work is driven by the flowers themselves and by their seasonality, color, texture and fragrance. It is the intersection of these two facets - the farmer and florist - that makes our wedding design work unique.

Stunning flowers

I was originally going to get flowers from a traditional florist but they were quoting me over $2000 for 1 bridal bouquets, 6 bridesmaid bouquets, 1 boutonnière, and an arrangement for a wedding arch. We ending up getting 5 premium color flower buckets, a bridal bouquet, and 1 boutonnière from East of Eden flower farm and the total came out to less than $1000. Even more importantly the flowers were absolutely stunning. They were better than I could have dreamed up myself. I let my bridesmaids all make their own bouquets while we were getting our hair and makeup done and they had so much fun. We had more flowers than we even knew what to do with. We loved them so much we kept them all at our house until they were completely dead which took over a week.

Gorgeous florals & helpful service

Julia at East of Eden was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. I hadn't give much thought to our florals aside from a few colors we wanted to incorporate into our day, and Julia was able to help me design a plan within our budget to decorate our space. I appreciated her expertise and flexibility! She was great about providing options and ideas when we needed them, and was very responsive over email as we got closer to our wedding day. When I saw the final flowers on our wedding day I was absolutely blown away. The colors were vibrants, the flowers were fresh and everything smelled amazing. Thank you, East of Eden, for making our wedding day so beautiful!

Beautiful farm-to-table flowers!

We decided to work with East of Eden for our wedding flowers because we didn't have anything particular in mind and we loved the idea of working with a local farm. It was the best choice! Julia was incredible to work with, and she even sent a note when she was planting the seeds for the flowers that were used in our wedding arrangements. The flowers she provided were simple, yet perfectly "wild". Julia was also a dream to work with - she ordered sprigs of rosemary for us last minute, sourced containers for the table arrangements etc. Whenever I had a question, she went above and beyond to lay out the options for me. We really wanted something that looked natural and beautifully represented Maine, and that is exactly what we got. We couldn't be happier!

If you're looking for fresh, Maine grown flowers and arrangements full of color and personality, I highly recommend East of Eden Flower Farm. East of Eden not only provided flowers for my own wedding, but I've also participated in their weekly flower CSA, and worked alongside them at weddings. On every occasion, the work is flawless.

Julia of East of Eden Flower Farm is a fantastic vendor. We can always count on her to supply exceptionally grown flowers. She is communicative and fair in her pricing. We try to use her as often as possible as she is one of our favorites.
