Once you’ve decided on a date and location for your wedding, it’s on to the difficult task of choosing your wedding dress, the menu for the reception, the song for the first dance, and the list goes on and on. One of the most difficult creative tasks is to choose the overall style of your big day. Then you've got to choose the table toppers, aisle decorations, and the bridal bouquet to fit that aesthetic. Luckily, there are plenty of professionals in the US ready to provide the most stylish floral solutions. In our selection, we've found 15 of the best in the country.

Vessel and Stem
Vessel and Stem’s floral designs are inspired by fresh flowers and harvested Virginia foliage. The studio uses local materials, so seasonality plays a key role for them and their design process. Clients define the palette and overall atmosphere of the event, and the team at Vessel and Stem creates individual concepts for each special occasion with florals to match.

The florist is inspired by nature itself and tries to convey the uniqueness of its components in each bouquet.
Isa Isa
