About

Hi, I’m Lisa! Since the start of Linnaea in 2010, I’ve designed for large events as well as tiny elopements, and through all these incredible experiences I’ve come to realize that while I love big gorgeous weddings and all the pretty details that go along with them, intimate is where my heart is.

I value intentional, meaningful, heartfelt vows, pretty bouquets, getting dressed up for special occasions, and celebratory champagne. I believe that weddings are for two people in love and their closest humans. And I believe that your wedding should feel a little bit like magic. So if you’re looking for a 500 guest gala filled with glitz and glamour, I might not be your gal… but if you want to get a little bit weird, or feel like you’re planning your wedding with one of your closest friends–honesty included, then I think we should chat!

Stunning Floral

Linnea installed one of the most spectacular floral designs we've seen at our venue. The colors were vibrant, the team was focused and all the guests commented on their design. Truly stellar work!

Flower magician!

Lisa is a flower magician! She executed my floral vision for my wedding perfectly! Her flower arrangements are unique and unlike anything I have seen at another wedding. Along with my wedding coordinator, she mostly used greenery and candles to turn Warren Hall at the Journeyman into an elegant but simple ceremony and reception space. She went above and beyond by staying to help flip the space and figuring out a way to hang our neon sign for the reception. She is not only amazing the day of, but is also extremely responsive to emails and so helpful when figuring out design elements. I highly recommend hiring Lisa/Linnaea Floral for your wedding!

Beautiful flowers from a dream!

Lisa took one last minute email and hodgepodge mood board from me and created my dream wedding flowers. She has a beautiful eye for florals and everything including our custom ceremony arch, lush table display, insanely fresh bridal bouquet, entire garden for our entrance and more was unique, stunning, and exactly what I wanted. Wedding flowers can be a big budget item but her end product is incredibly worth her price. She’s kind, understanding, and so easy to work with. She will make your dreams come true!!

Would recommend a million times over!

Wow, not even sure where to begin with Lisa! She is INCREDIBLE. It feels like just yesterday that I sat down with her to discuss my vision for flowers. It was magical to see her start to sketch out ideas as my wedding planner and I discussed our vision. She was just as excited as I was about using the flowers to bring some color and vibrancy into our wedding day! The flowers ended up being one of my favorite parts of our entire wedding. The bouquets were breathtaking and even better than I originally dreamed of. She took my original vision and elevated it, which I love! She is clearly very talented at her craft. She delivered on every aspect of our contract and more. My bouquet looked so full and so big and beautiful. She decorated my naked cake as promised, which would have looked very, very naked without flowers on it. She even used flowers for a dual purpose, which I really appreciated. For example, she took the flowers from the wedding ceremony arch and used them on our head table, which ended up looking a million trillion times more stunning than I could have even imagined. An added plus is just that Lisa seems like a genuinely beautiful soul and wonderful human being. As a writer myself, I always appreciated that her language was just as flowery as her profession is! I always looked forward to receiving new messages from her signed something like “hearts and flowers”!! Receiving updates or messages from her was truly a breath of fresh air. In the middle of stressful wedding planning, her excitement (e.g., “YAYYYYY” and “SO EXCITED!!” and “XOXOXO,” etc.) always made me take a step back and feel excited for the wedding. I found that to be a huge added bonus and so helpful. THANK YOU, Lisa! I hope my sisters will have the honor of working with you when they marry!

A dream florist!

I hired Lisa solely based on her Instagram, website, and a brief introductory call. We never even met in person until the morning of our wedding but I never questioned her talent for a second. She understood our "vibe" right away (romantic, vintage, eclectic) and had so many insanely awesome ideas to make it look amazing. I can't tell you how many dozens upon dozens of e-mails we exchanged but she was always prompt and friendly, even when I was being a bit of an overzealous client. We had a more limited budget but you would have never known it with how beautiful Lisa made everything in our large space - from our tablescapes to the chuppah to the dessert table, everything was just as I envisioned it, but better. I honestly wish I could be friends with her, she's so awesome to work with and is a true creative visionary. I honestly might try to find a way to hire her again for something because she's that damn good!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Lisa!! She was great to work with, and she went above and beyond the vision I had for our wedding day. She created my bridal bouquet, my husband's boutonniere, floral hair combs for me and my mom, an arbor piece for our ceremony, greenery runners for our reception tables and decoration for the hanging structure above our sweetheart table. I was blown away by how beautiful our flowers were!!! I couldn't be happier that I chose Lisa to be our florist.

It's hard to find the right words to describe how insanely perfect Lisa made our wedding. We went with the full service planning and florals option with Lisa, and our wedding never could have happened so flawlessly without her.

My husband and I were never great at articulating exactly what we wanted, and yet Lisa turned our day into the most perfect expression of both our personalities. From the beautiful bouquets, to the succulent table decorations, to the beautiful vintage furniture, she transformed my mom's backyard to a dream land. Every detail was thoughtfully curated specifically for us with perfect amount of sentiment, so there was nothing tacky or overdone about it.

Lisa was a dream to work with from start to finish. Her tears of happiness on our day proved even more how passionate and thoughtful she is about her job!

Lisa is the BEST!!! And hiring her was the best decision I made in all of wedding planning. She is responsive, professional, and soooooo talented. She listened to my ideas (jumbled thoughts and dreams), understood me, LOVED it, and then executed truly the most beautiful wedding day ever. Our guests are still commenting on the flowers and décor. We had a large wedding (250+); the ceremony was at a church and the reception tented outdoors nearby. I was really worried how to create the look I wanted with 35 tables and big white tent—on budget. Other florists I talked to made this seem impossible and/or a million dollars. But not Lisa! She had many ideas on how to make this happen. And she rocked it!! For the ceremony, she created aisle arrangements for the front pews, the girls bouquets, my bridal bouquet (which was breathtaking), the guys bouts, and a flower crown for my niece. For the reception, she created 3 separate centerpieces – one larger more classic arrangement, the second with a brass lantern, and the third with bud vases – all adding her own glass votives to add candlelight and depth. AND a floral piece for my hair, the wedding cake and dessert table display, and our sweetheart table. And to even further exceed my expectations, she added buds, greenery and taper candles to unexpected spaces throughout the reception space. It was beautiful. I really cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Linnaea Floral.
And not to mention, Lisa is extremely well connected and referred me to other amazing vendors that we hired as well. They actually worked together to coordinate pieces. I felt like I was in the best hands, so carefree and happy!!

Lisa - thank you for being excited about our wedding, so kind, and a dream to work with. We are SO appreciative!

Lisa made my wedding so beautiful! She provided all the flowers for my ceremony and reception. She was way more than just my florist, she helped me with a lot of the little details too! From the start Lisa was very responsive and even created a Pinterest board for me so we could share ideas. I am not very knowledgeable with flowers and didn't really know what I wanted, but she was able to put together something beautiful that matched the feel I was going for. Lisa also helped me stay in my budget. I told her what I wanted to stay at, and she was able to make modifications to the flowers to make sure I was still getting something beautiful for my budget. She was knowledgeable also, explaining to me which flowers would be in bloom for my July wedding.
Additionally Lisa helped with my table numbers, and flowers for my cake. She had me work with her table number vendor, and when I was concerned about the color she took over and talked to the vendor directly, and they came up with an overlay that helped create the color I was looking for. The flowers on my cake were also just gorgeous. My centerpieces had 2 different styles, and a few months before my wedding Lisa reached out to my about some lanterns she recently acquired that she thought would go perfectly with my style and she said she would swap them out for 1 of my table styles and no additional price. She had this vision that just came together perfectly. I always felt like Lisa cared about my wedding just as much as I did and she wanted to make sure it was perfect.
One thing that happened was she forgot 1 boutonniere, but when I called her she handled it professionally and was very apologetic. Accidents happen and it was not a big deal at all, we made it work.
So many people commented on how beautiful the flowers and centerpieces were, my bridesmaids and I LOVED our bouquets! I would 100% recommend/use Linnaea floral again and again!

I chose Lisa because I saw that she was excited about our floral concept. So, my advice to others is to make sure you choose the vendor who best fits you. That being said, I don't know how Lisa wouldn't be the right fit for anyone!! She is fantastic, so sweet and incredibly talented. Her floral artistry completely blew me away and perfected our wedding day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
