Forever Floral Designs is an eco-friendly alternative to fresh cut flowers and silk flowers. My Sola Wood Flowers are produced from a plant called Aeschynomeneaspera. This plant grows wild in marshy areas around the world typically in tropical regions. Each flower is hand rolled, cut, shaped and colored to match any style. Sola Wood is eco- friendly, hypoallergenic and a maintainable alternative to fresh cut flowers. Not to mention, the best part: a keepsake and completely hypoallergenic.
No need to preserve your arrangements, my Sola Wood Flowers are forever-ready! Sola Wood Flowers FEEL just like a real flower. Their silk like texture and thin pedals match the feeling of a fresh flower; however, they won't dry, wilt, crack, or fade in color. Silk and faux flowers fade with time and collect dust that grows a grittiness with plastic and fabric. My sola wood flowers last a LIFETIME.
I specialize in weddings, engagements and all occasions. I produce floral designs ranging from classic, boho, country to modern and glamorous. You choose the arrangement that matches your style, personality and vision for a keepsake that will last forever.
Services Offered Forever Floral Designs offers affordable and hypoallergenic items for your shower, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. I am happy to hold a private consultation to discuss your wishes and preferences. I create each item completely custom to your liking, to include the size, color and style. Some examples and options are aisle decor, bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, corsages, and flower crowns. To ensure that you receive a quality experience from beginning to end I offer samples, venue visits, and delivery services. I also provide set up and arch rentals. I look forward to working with you for your special day!

Owner
My name is Addison Rivera, and I am a mother, wife, native New Mexican, and full-time artist. Creating art has been a passion of mine since I was able to put pen to paper. It wasn’t until later in life that I experienced the greatest joy of art: the happiness I can evoke in others through my creative process. And what a gift I was given to be born into the beauty that is New Mexico. Sometimes it almost seems unfair that my backdrop is pure, natural beauty! I feel beyond blessed to be where I am today, bringing dreams to life through my art, and making friendships along the way.

Mrs. Rivera was quite the florist. I had no idea what I was doing for my wedding and she helped me pick ideas and a vision for my flowers. Everything came out beautiful. All of our flowers became gifts for life and I will definitely refer her to all my friends and family.

Addison and Forever Floral Design were sensational to work with for our Christmas/winter wedding! The creations by Addison are nothing short of stunning! All of the arrangements came out so beautiful and the best part, they get to be keepsakes! Since Addison uses the new and innovative take on alternative floral arrangements using sola wood, they can be enjoyed for years after the big day making this the only option for your wedding arrangements (in my opinion). The cost is also a no brainer in comparison to fresh flowers. Would ABSOLUTELY recommend Forever Floral Design!

Addison was amazing. She saved the day last minute after our online Sola flower experience was terrible. On super short notice she met with us to understand what we wanted, gave us ideas and everything came out better than we could ever have imagined. It all looked incredible and we got lots of compliments from our guests!

LOVE LOVE LOVE Addison!!! Extremely easy to work with. Very good and efficient at communicating and sending videos of the updated florals. Great at brainstorming and making your vision come alive. She'll get back to you in 24 hours which is very rare in wedding world. Guests loved the florals and didn't realize they weren't real unless told. Beautiful arrangements, can't say enough amazing things about FFD. 10/10 would book again.

Addison with Forever Floral Design was incredible to work with. I often told her that working with her was the best part of planning my wedding, and it absolutely was. Addison’s energy and enthusiasm is contagious- she kept me excited the entire journey, from discussing my very convoluted tropical-meets-nautical concept, to receiving my flowers pre-packed for shipping and transport to a destination wedding. She even worked with me and my budget to craft all the items I needed at a more than reasonable price.
My flower order was a little unique in that I had to have completely synthetic or wood flowers for all of my pieces, as I had my wedding on a cruise ship that did not allow any kind of dried or fresh flowers. She kept in touch with me throughout the whole process, sent me tons of photos and videos, and was willing to work with me on little color or design changes here and there (very little needed as she executed my vision better than I could have imagined). She even incorporated some fun, special little inclusions along the way when she came up with new ideas or found something while she was out and about.
My flowers were packed very well, nothing was crushed and everything had plenty of room, making shipping and traveling on an airplane very easy. My bouquet was gorgeous, and all of my decorative pieces were just stunning. If you’re looking for florals that look amazing, last forever, and are exactly what you envision, Addison is your florist! I can’t say enough good things!

I’m so glad we chose her for a vendor. Her prices were exactly in our price range and other vendors we got quotes from didn’t make us feel important and the prices for real flowers were shocking, knowing that I had no idea what a waste they were as fresh flowers die. All our centerpieces and accessories and bouquets and boutonnière were the best gifts to our guests She also color matched our exact colors which other flowers can’t. We will recommend Forever Floral Designs to all our friends and family in the future for their weddings!

Addison took a combination of my wishes, colors of the wedding and paired it with her artistic talent to make everything come to life. It was more than I could’ve imagined! What’s so special is the longevity of sola wood vs live florals. It was a cost saver going this route but our bouquets, singles and center piece we get to enjoy for a lifetime. I cannot thank her enough for making our wedding decor and props shout simple, elegance. I recommend her everywhere I go, whenever I can because it’s a wedding game changer! You cannot go wrong with her!

Addison did a beautiful job, florals complemented the dress and setting perfectly, and several friends and guests commented on how beautiful the flowers were and one even said she wished she had gone with Forever Floral for her own wedding! Great to work with for both florals and photography. Highly recommend!

Addison created the most breath-taking florals for my June 2nd wedding. She touched base with me often throughout the whole process to make sure everything was how I dreamed it would be. Every single thing she created are now displayed in my home, and the homes of our loved ones who we gifted some of the pieces to. We are beyond happy we chose Forever Floral Designs!

Addison was extremely amazing. She was extremely responsive and it made us feel like she was only working on our wedding even though we knew she had lots of though weddings going on. Her flowers were like nothing we have ever seen before. They turned out better than having actual real flowers. Now we have a keep sake that will last forever. Thank you so much Addison!

What can I say about Addison. I met her at a wedding expo 17 months before my wedding and we kept in touch throughout the journey. Come crunch time, I couldn’t and didn’t get enough of her. Her bubbly personality was detrimental to many brides wanting to throw in the towel and just elope. Thankfully we got our big day and looked wonderful. My bouquets are a keepsake that all my bridesmaids and the winner of the bouquet toss took home and my cake, I can’t say how gorgeous it looked. I can’t thank her enough for everything she did for us I hope many of you get to experience her talent!

Like many couples, we saw the prices of fresh wedding florals and almost fainted. We researched alternative, more sustainable options and stumbled upon Addison and sola wood-seriously one of the best decisions we could’ve made. Addison was so responsive from the moment I reached out for a quote. Once we booked with her, she kept me updated every step of the way and sent pictures/videos for approval. She color matched everything perfectly. She even entertained the quirky details I challenged her to make/incorporate (a dog flower collar and bottle caps).
She made a trip to our venue in Taos to set everything up, which was so above and beyond. Working with Addison was so easy-she is professional, a perfectionist, and truly cares about her work and her couples.
My biggest regret is not placing a larger order because everything we got was absolutely perfect. Don’t wait, book with Addison now!

I can’t tell you how AWESOME these flowers are! They FEEL just like a real peddles and look just like real flowers! I get to keep my wedding bouquet forever and so do my bridesmaids , I had no idea who Addison was and what she could creat! Sola wood is so great and I couldn’t be happier I chose sola wood flowers. Addison was amazing and so sweet, she was incredible to work with. She always got back to me within minutes and was so easy to work with! Nothing about her service was difficult and she even helped me set up All my wedding arrangements for free. You won’t regret booking her.

Addison made me the perfect bouquet! My wedding was a bit of a challenge because we were hiking to our destination. Addison went out of her way to help us figure out a way to carry my bouquet on my backpack. When I say my bouquet went through it I mean it! High winds, trees, falling, when she says forever florals she means it! My bouquet looks the same as the day I got it and I’m so happy with my experience, thank you again!
