Wedding Flowers for Meaningful Celebrations
Locally grown flowers rooted in your season & values
Your season. Your place. Your story.
Your wedding tells the story of the two of you. It’s told through favorite colors, a tribute to grandmother's garden, a secret sorority nod or a family pet represented at the reception. Or often a feeling only you can describe.
We believe your wedding flowers should be more than a color palette.
They should reflect who you are and the life you're building together.
As a grower & florist, I connect your style and character with the best of what's blooming on the farm.
At Hen House Flowers, your wedding begins in our Pittsboro flower farm fields for a celebration that could only be yours.

Start here
Most couples don’t know a lot about flowers. That’s ok - it’s not required for a happy marriage!

No problem. Translating your vision and values into flowers is our specialty.
Together, we'll explore the details that make your celebration unique & pair it with the best of what's in bloom.
The result is wedding flowers that create atmosphere; one you & your guests won’t forget.

Seasonal color stories
One of the biggest misconceptions about wedding flowers is that every design begins with a blank page.
It doesn't.
The season already started the conversation.
Your wedding date, venue, landscape, dress, and even the time of day all offer beautiful clues about what belongs together.
Seasonality isn’t a limitation, it’s a starting point.
Growing flowers has taught us that every season has its own personality. Spring doesn't look like fall, and that's exactly the point. Instead of forcing flowers to become something they're not, we let the season lead and use your preferences to guide the details.
The result is flowers that feel relaxed, cohesive, and right at home on your wedding day.
Here are our favorite seasonal palettes:
1.) Soft & Pastel
Shades of blush, peach, soft pink, lavender, dusty blue, cream and other gentle tones.
Airy, romantic & delicate.

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.

From Seed to Centerpiece
We grown & we design. It's a little unusual, I know. It's part of what makes us different and what makes the results beautiful.
Our flower farm grows many of the flowers in our wedding designs. Because I know how each flower naturally grows, every bouquet, boutonnière and arrangement feels natural, distinctive and right at home in the season.

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

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.
