Our Services

Thoughtful floral design for weddings and events.
Each offering is guided with intention and calm direction, allowing the design to feel natural to the moment.

Weddings

Florals are shaped by season, setting, and how the day unfolds, so each element feels connected and intentional.

Design direction is held with care, allowing you to step back from small details while the experience remains cohesive and well supported from planning through installation.

Elopements & Intimate Weddings

Intimate weddings create space for detail, presence, and intention.

With fewer elements competing for attention, the design focuses on balance, texture, and the moments that give a space its character.

Seasonal Gatherings

Seasonal Gatherings celebrate meaningful moments throughout the year.

From baby showers and milestone birthdays to holiday gatherings and professional and corporate events, florals are designed and delivered with care—reliable, well timed, and thoughtfully placed to support the occasion.

Our Process

We begin with an inquiry and a thoughtful exchange around your event—its setting, priorities, and overall tone—establishing a clear foundation for the design ahead.
Through conversation and careful listening, a clear floral direction takes shape—guided by your vision, the space, and the season. Site visits are always welcomed when helpful.
We align on a clear visual design direction for your event, shaped by your investment range, and the space— anchored in your vision.
After we align on the visual design direction, a contract and retainer formalize the commitment. With both in place, the date is secured on our calendar and details continue to be refined with care.
From sourcing through installation, every detail is carried through with precision and calm. You can expect a steady, thoughtful presence throughout—providing guidance as decisions may evolve, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish.
You don’t need to have everything figured out—guidance is part of the process, and adjustments are approached with care as the celebration takes shape.

KIND WORDS

“Everything that she created was absolutely gorgeous and went above and beyond what I expected. Communication was seamless, and the entire experience felt easy. We will definitely ask Poem of Petals to flower our event again.”

— Valerie, Silent Auction Dinner
“Working with Poem of Petals was the most rewarding experience I could ask for. As a bride, I was unsure of how to conceptualize my vision, but she knew exactly what I was looking for and created an experience I’ll never forget. The end result was beyond words. It felt like our event was meant for that space and its timeless elements. The flowers were breathtaking, the tables were designed so beautifully, and our guests said it was one of the best weddings they’d been to.”

— Jenae, Wedding
“From our first conversation, Markesha understood the vision and added her own designer touches that made everything feel warm, elegant, and perfectly on theme. The florals captured the timeless Southern beauty celebration we were going for. Every arrangement was fresh, thoughtfully designed, and delivered right on time. The entrance display set the tone beautifully, and the centerpieces made the space feel both sophisticated and inviting. We received so many compliments. Markesha was a pleasure to work with—responsive, organized, and truly passionate. She even helped us repurpose some of the arrangements to stretch our investment without sacrificing beauty.”

— Endea, Baby Shower

A NOTE ON COMMUNITY

Alongside client work, Markesha offers seasonal floral workshops through her Poem of Petals initiative, Blooming HER. This work is held separately from Poem of Petals’ client offerings and reflects a belief that flowers can be a source of care, confidence, and connection.

It’s a quiet part of the practice, but an important one.
