Flowers should be the fun part of wedding planning! At Stems we believe each couple has a unique vision for their wedding. We don’t sell packages, we invite you to collaborate with us to find the floral moments that are most meaningful to you and your fiance.
Imagine seeing the flowers designed for your wedding growing in your neighborhood year after year, bringing back cherished memories of the day you chose your person for life. That’s what can happen when you choose local flowers for your wedding day! A soft reminder of the day you chose your person for life.
We excel at creating floral designs for both intimate gatherings and larger scale weddings, including stunning ceremony flowers like arches and chuppahs, unique garden designs, exquisite table scapes and personal flowers.
With over 12 years of floral experience in New York City, we know a thing or two about flowers and all the boring logistics you’d rather not think about. Let’s hop on a Zoom or meet at our studio in Brooklyn to talk about your wedding flowers.

Sourcing & Production
Sourcing
Seasonally
We source seasonally which means our flowers are coming from right here in New York City, to Vermont, California and as far as Europe. During the warmer months we prioritize local farms which means flowers coming to us by vehicle without having ever taken a trip on an airplane. When importing from outside the US we prioritize fair trade certified farms.
Our local farms grow without the use of pesticides. We have personal relationships with all of our local farmers.
Practicing
Sustainability
We never use chemically altered materials such as spray paint, harmful dyes or chemically laden bleached products. Composting is part of our everyday life to ensure our carbon footprint is offset as much as possible by diverting organic waste from landfills.
We use chicken wire or floral tape to ensure our flowers stay in their vases. Flower foam is a single use micro plastic that ends up in our oceans and can also be harmful to humans who use it in flower shops.
Focusing on
Inclusivity
To us, building a business that is inclusive and gives back to our community is of the utmost importance. We support local artists by selling hand crafted retail goods in our shop with priority given to women owned, BIPOC owned and Bushwick artists that are part of our community. Equity matters.
We believe all love should be welcomed and celebrated, and support the LGBTQ+ community. We are dedicated to anti-racism practices within our business and our community.
