About

**PLEASE NOTE** I no longer offer bouquet/corsage/boutonniere services for a la carte clients. I work only by referral with a design minimum of $15K. Do not send bouquet,personal flower inquiries please.

While I still offer luxury floral and event design services, my business has changed considerably and I now work exclusively with wedding planners. My floral services begin at $150 per guest or $15,000 for 100 guests. If I design lighting, speciality rentals, linens, tabletop etc, clients spend about $300 per guest.

I provide a full visual design proposal ONLY after a design fee retainer of 4-8% is received.

I am so appreciative of my early clients, their positive reviews and support during the early years of my business, thanks for your time and all the best with your wedding.

Reviews of Sullivan Owen floral & event design

Sullivan brought so much beauty to our wedding day!

It is so difficult to put this review into words because I am still (months later!) completely overwhelmed by the beauty of Sullivan's art. In my thank you note to her, I wrote that the only regret I had was that her florals couldn't stay in the Philadelphia Museum of Art always—because they truly belong there alongside the Monets and Van Goghs. Simply put, she is a genius and artist of the highest caliber. Her designs reflect all the wild beauty of nature, transformed for an evening into an exquisite bouquet, an elegent centerpiece, a sprawling urn arrangement.

Beyond this, it is such a privilege and delight to work with her. During our first phone call, she somehow articulated the exact aesthetic I had in mind before I had even spoken the words—she is that perceptive! I was as blown away then as I am now. Her ideas, drawn from our discussions of the art in the venue space, became the linchpin of our wedding planning—from the bridesmaid dress colors to the stationary to even the signature cocktails. (We just wanted everything to complement her work!) 

She also managed to navigate the limitations placed on florals and design pieces to protect the art at our venue so gracefully—taking everything in stride even when construction plans moved up in the reception space. She took what others would consider an impediment as an opportunity to introduce more creativity to the space. I could go on forever about everything I loved on the day—whether the tear-inducing beauty of the bouquet, the amazing still-lifes she created for the head table and centerpieces, or the precious florals for the flower girls—but needless to say, Sullivan is in a league of her own and having her on your team is the best decision you could make for your wedding.

Sullivan is a floral goddess. I don't know what more to say. Her work is amazing but when I saw the reception space for the first time, it was more amazing than I could have imagined. Her work is truly art.

If you want standard wedding flowers, where flowers are bunched together into a pom pom, Sullivan probably isn't for you. Her work is relaxed but but polished like a gorgeous old still life painting. Guests commented how amazed they were by the flowers and how every table was different. She is very easy to work with, and although pricy, it was worth every penny and by far my favorite decorative element.

Wow! Sullivan is a remarkable artist. My florals for my wedding at the Horticultural Center were unbelievable and gorgeous! She did beautiful floral chandeliers and most beautiful cascading bridal bouquet ever! It was totally worth the nice arm workout I got, because it was so beautiful! Sullivan worked with us to provide the look we were going for the money were spending. She understood our budget, and really worked with us to provide what would make the most impact for the event. Whether it would be adding another floral chandelier or putting more florals on the chuppah. I was so happy and floored with how everything turned out. When you hire Sullivan just know that you will totally blown away with what she comes up with. So gorgeous, and I can't thank her enough for all the beauty and ambiance that made my wedding so memorable! Thank you Sullivan!!!

Sullivan did the flowers for my Kimmel Center wedding last month and they were amazing. Her work is so unique - not just your standard round white bouquet. I instantly feel in love with all of her ideas. She created such a beautiful look for our big day. And above and beyond that she is a pleasure to work with. She was so nice, considerate and alot of fun to brainstorm with. She even made some amazing vendor recommendations - helping me find a wedding planner and stationary team that would work well with my style and personality.

We loved working with Sullivan! Her talent and professionalism are really unparalleled! I had seen lots of Sullivan's work prior to our first meeting and loved it all. As is quickly apparent, Sullivan has a definite point of view and distinct style. That said, when we first met, she was all about figuring out what the style of our wedding would be, and how her vibe could be shaped into what we wanted. The result was absolute perfection! Not only did Sullivan provide guidance on florals, but she also helped talk us through how the florals would work with the venue space, the time of year, and the lighting to create the overall ambiance that we were aiming for. Setting aside her crazy talent for a minute, Sullivan is also a consummate professional. Shortly before our wedding, we realized that we needed to make some changes to the mandap (stage area) for our Hindu ceremony, which would require carpeting, lighting, and additional florals. Sullivan calmly coordinated with our wedding planner and the other vendors to make the last minute changes in a way that kept our stress levels low, synced with the rest of our wedding, and made everyone (from us to the priest to our parents) happy. Sullivan also made our garlands for the Hindu ceremony, and they were absolutely stunning. In addition to all of the above, Sullivan is funny, collected, organized, and warm. It was a true pleasure working with her!

Sullivan Owen provided the flowers for my daughter's wedding. I do a lot of events, and sometimes the flowers don't get noticed...but we received so many compliments on the flowers. They were so unusual and really gorgeous. We also made a last minute change to add more flowers at the church, and Sullivan took care of everything. She was very flexible. I would definitely recommend her for any event. Outstanding!

Sullivan is amazing, I loved working with her. She turned all of my wedding vision dreams into reality. I'm so lucky my maid of honor found her. Sullivan is top notch and a true artist . The flowers for your wedding are probably one of the most important aspects of your look and decor. Flowers change everything especially Sulllivan's unique designs. I wish she was my local florist.
