Meet Ariel
My love for flowers and floral design started with a small patio garden. There were so many pots on my back porch you could barely see over the rail. My garden has since grown larger and more bountiful each year. Learning new techniques and finding even more beautiful varieties. Gardening is one of my favourite pastimes and my main inspiration for my event designs.
In my designs, you will usually find foraged foliage, berries and blooms incorporating the local landscape. I believe in letting flowers show as they would in nature. With my cutting garden, I am always searching or adding new flower types and colours that will work well in my clients' wedding designs. Often working directly with my clients to grow the flowers they would specifically like to see.
In 2020, I took the opportunity to participate in Floret's Cut Flower Farm Workshop expanding my knowledge on sustainable ways to grow my cut flower garden and produce the best looking blooms for my clients. In addition, I am constantly taking online floral design courses and when available in-person ones allowing myself to learn new techniques and styles that I can offer.
When I am not enjoying my days in the garden, you will often find me out for walks in the snow or swimming at the lake with my two golden retrievers and husband.

The
cutting garden
The Within the Flowers cutting garden is the heart of our designs. It allows us to connect with each season and utilize seasonal blooms that are often unavailable in conventional marketplaces. The cutting garden provides the delicate details that make every bouquet, ceremony statement, and reception centrepiece unique.
Each year, I meticulously plan the layout of the garden and the specific flowers that will bloom. I take into account the color palettes and overall styles of the weddings I design for. By growing cut flowers tailored to weddings, I can create a seasonal and local approach to floral design.
I believe in creating displays with flowers and foliage showing as they would in nature.
