Wedding flowers for meaningful celebrations
Flowers that reflect what matters most
Most couples come to us with a color palette, a venue, a Pinterest board, and a vision for the day, but aren't quite sure what flowers they need. They’re envisioning a wedding that reflects their life: their personalities, hobbies, values and loved ones (including pets!).
That's perfect. You don't need to know flower varieties, design styles, or what belongs where. That's our job.
Together, we'll refine your ideas into flowers that reflect what matters most, whether that's a favorite bloom from a grandmother's garden, a subtle tribute to a loved one, flowers grown close to home, or the feeling you want your celebration to have.
At Hen House Flowers, every design begins in our Pittsboro flower farm fields. As a farmer and florist, I draw on decades of growing experience to select blooms that are beautiful but also meaningful, seasonal, and deeply connected to place.

Who our flowers are for
We get it. You’re not planning a theatrical production. You’re want a wedding celebration that feels real, meaningful, an event that reflects the life you’re building together.
You love the idea of real flowers that mirror the season, the setting, and your story—natural, beautiful and full of personal character.

Why wedding flowers from a NC flower farm?
Your wedding is a moment in time. Locally grown flowers capture that seasonal feeling of color and texture that make your event unique.
Pinterest boards can collect inspiration, but you want your wedding day to reflect your personality, not be a cookie cutter of someone else’s.
I work with couples who love the lush look of garden-fresh flowers. Because every design starts in our flower farm fields, I use delicate, fragrant varieties a traditional wedding florist can’t easily find.
Your flowers will feel exclusively yours. They'll reflect what's blooming at the exact moment you say "I do."
Time-stamped by the season.
Timeless in your photos.
Unique for your style.

Local wedding flower FAQ

It varies each season! I can generally work with most color palettes, but the flower types may vary. Seasonal local beauty is guaranteed, but specific flowers and exact colors are not. With 6-9 months notice, I can even custom grow flowers for your event!
You can always peek at what I’m planning to grow on my flower calendar. But note that weather and crop performance are fickle! My planting plan is a seasonal guide, not a guarantee. Seasonal local beauty

Good for you! Securing your event date is job #1. I am currently booking for the 2025 wedding season.
To inquire about availability, schedule a 15-minute phone consultation or email me. Note that your date is only secured once you sign your contract and pay the deposit.
We’ll spend a few minutes chatting so I can hear about your wedding visions and Pinterest plans and you can learn about my floral style and process.

Like cakes, venues and dresses, it depends. The flowers and quantities you choose will have the greatest impact on your pricing. We can discuss options depending on your likes and needs.
A rule of thumb is to plan 10-15% of your wedding budget for a moderate mount of commonly available flowers. Increase that to 15-20% of your budget if you want lots of focal flowers, specialty flowers, or have a large bridal party.
Want a custom flower proposal? Email me!
I will provide a detailed pricing proposal after our phone consultation where I learn more about your plans and needs.

Yes - I use all organic practices on our flower farm because of our love for pollinators and our environment. But we are not officially certified organic.

Yes! If you store flowers in a cool, dark place overnight, you can definitely pick them up the day before your wedding from our farm in Pittsboro. The exception is installation flowers, which we recommend picking up the morning of your event.
