About Sweet Lilacs

Susan A. Kelleher

Event florist, Wedding flowers, floral design, flowers for special events

Our studio operates as a collaborative art studio where we discuss, confer, disagree, experiment and delight in our work. We love the challenge of working with new styles and colors, different venues, unique tastes and most of all, different combinations of florals and foliage. Every week is different for us. The unique styles and trends stretch our creativity. We love the challenge. For example, café au lait dahlias have a ninety degree angle that is challenging in a round bouquet. So many little nuances. All this matters to us. We learn and grow with every event. The little details make a huge difference.

My introduction to floral design was through Sogetsu School of Ikebana. Through Sogetsu Ikebana, I learned that flower arranging is not mere decoration, but a form of art. I absolutely love flowers, art and nature. I have over fifteen years experience in the floral industry. In a very simplistic form, the art of floral design has a philosophy which brightens, colors and gives life to our environment. In our living environment where more and more artificial and inorganic substances are being used, flowers bring peace of mind to us. Working with flowers is peaceful. The backroom floral design studio is where it all happens!
