  • A groom and bride holding hands and smiling during a wedding ceremony in an indoor venue decorated with candles and floral arrangements.

    “Originally, my husband and I wanted to save our money and forgo flowers. However, we decided to reach out to Cara anyway. Boy, are we glad we did. We know nothing about flowers and we also didn't have a color palette for the wedding, which for some vendors may have been a nightmare. We wanted Cara to work her magic and tap into her creativity. Man, did she do that and more! HIRE SOUTH STEMS NOW! Like yesterday. You'll love working with Cara and she'll elevate your event.”

  • A bride and groom walking crosswalk in autumn, the bride holding a bouquet of flowers, trees with fall foliage in the background.

    “My husband and I wanted seasonal blooms for our micro-wedding in Philadelphia with an eco-minded florist and South Stems delivered twice! When we had to cancel our first date unexpectedly, Cara was so kind and did what she could to ease the heartbreak. When we got our new wedding date, I changed the plan, and Cara followed me with aplomb. I loved the flowers that day. She was there to guide and make suggestions with the directness and gentleness every bride/groom needs.”

    “Throughout the rest of the way, Cara was there, ready to help, ready to support me. She really was authentically invested in all of the details of my wedding. When I stepped inside of my reception hall and got my first look at all of the tables, especially our head table, I just melted inside. She killed it. It was the mood board come to life. It was us.”

    "Cara was wonderful to work with as my fiance and I were refining the exact color scheme we wanted for our wedding. Once we sent her our final color palette, we let her do her magic and she sent us an updated mood board with gorgeous flowers that perfectly complemented the attire of the wedding party as well as the colors at our venue. The arrangements were even prettier in person and we received many compliments on the bride's bouquet. We highly recommend South Stems!"

It was so easy to collaborate with Cara on our palette and desired florals, and we especially loved that she sources her high-quality flowers locally. She worked with us across several phone calls to put together a customized proposal for us and narrow down a design. Cara executed our vision beyond our expectations, incorporating beautiful textures and shades to elevate our backyard celebration to a whole other level. Her personable approach, expertise, and eye for detail made the planning process so smooth and made for an unforgettable wedding day. I highly recommend South Stems for your next event!”

    ”Cara ant her amazing team at South Stems absolutely nailed our wedding vision! We were thrilled with her color choices and different levels of arrangements! Our wedding day was in the middle of July on what seemed like the absolute hottest day of the year and some how they managed to keep everything looking beautiful and not wilted. My words cannot express how impressed I am with the work they all put in. My bouquet was huge and beautiful. She incorporated marigolds for my daughter and basil for my son. They even did a little pin cup for me with basil and marigolds in my dressing room. They really thought of everything and my guests are still talking about how amazing everything looked!”

Cara is the best, not only did her flowers bring the wedding venue and decor to life, but her planning process is thorough and interactive to customize your vision, color palette, and design. She was flexible and professional, and I still to this day am ogling over the memory of my bouquet (which I even had preserved!). She nailed my aesthetic in every way with an artistic flair. I highly recommend South Stems for your wedding or occasion!”

    “I had nothing but a delightful experience working with South Stems florist for my wedding! Cara is so talented and a true artist. We had a few chats leading up to the wedding to go over what kind color pattern I wanted, types of flowers, vases etc. I knew that I could let her just do her thing and I would love the outcome regardless. Cara was very responsive in emails and texts, we couldn’t have asked for better.”
