About this vendor
Stems Brooklyn specializes in garden style designs that feel natural, organic, and textural. We like to play with color and experiment with funky materials and unexpected combinations. Above all, our design work focuses on the natural aspects and personalities of the materials we are using, we always aim to reflect and express what our flowers and stems would do in nature. Our work also reflects our values. We work hard and smart to never use floral foam, a toxic and carcinogenic material, compost and recycle all materials post wedding, and encourage our couples to donate their wedding flowers and support our friends at Bloom Again Brooklyn.
Our signature style showcases your personality and our care for our the planet; working thoughtfully to exclude floral foam (a toxic and carcinogenic material), all chemical dyes, sprays, & bleach, and composting as much organic floral waste as possible. We also design seasonally and source locally as much as possible during the spring, summer and fall months, prioritizing small farms, local growers, and American grown flowers. As a client you can expect surprising designs, timely responses, a relationship with a local Brooklynite, and a focus on ensuring your wedding runs as smoothly as possible.

Suzanna and team are the best you're going to find, hands down. I simply can't put to words how grateful we are to Stems Brooklyn for making our floral dreams come true on our wedd...
ing day -- and coordinating with our other vendors to really bring the entire concept to life!! This is an extraordinarily special group of people who put a lot of heart behind the work they do, and it really comes across -- those kind of things are just felt by everyone! 100000/10 stars. We're buying all of our floral arrangements from Stems BK forever. That is simply how much we love them.
From the planning to the execution Stems was an absolute dream. I wanted our wedding to feel warm, inviting and joyful and that’s exactly what they delivered. Working with Suzanna ...
was so simple and easygoing - I trusted her work completely and it absolutely came through. They are all true professionals. The warehouse we got married in transformed into a gorgeous sanctuary. I owe them everything for creating the ambiance of our day. HIRE THEM!!!
We truly cannot say enough good things about Stems - they were hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.
From the very beginning, they were laid-back, creative...
, and so thoughtful.
Meeting them in person at their cozy studio felt like sitting down with old friends and their energy and style just instantly clicked with us. We left that meeting feeling completely at ease and so excited.
And then… the flowers. Wow. They absolutely aced the assignment. The arrangements were romantic, effortless, and perfectly captured that late summer / early fall coziness we were going for. Every detail felt intentional and completely “us.” We’re still hearing from guests about how stunning everything looked, and every time we show people photos, the flowers are one of the first things they comment on.
Total pros and absolute artists. If you're looking to bring your vision to life in the most beautiful, effortless way, look no further. We’re forever grateful!
We could not have been happier with our beautiful florals and decor designed by Suzanna and the Stems Brooklyn team. They were able to execute our vision and were so easy to work w...
ith. We received so many compliments on our chuppah, bridal bouquets, and table scapes.
I cannot emphasize enough how much I loved working with Stems to bring my vibrant, bright & whimsical wedding flower vision to life. When it came to florals, I had some pretty unco...
nventional ideas that I thought were probably unrealistic — all sorts of hanging flower garlands and whatnot — and they made every single one of them happen! They far exceeded my expectations, and I honestly cried when I saw my bridal bouquet — that’s how perfect it was. Also, they did EXACTLY what I asked, which was create a bridal bouquet that looked like the extension of my bright floral unconventional wedding dress (see pic!) Every member of their team was also so kind and cheerful and genuine and got just as excited about the details as I did :) I have zero complaints; booking them was the best decision and I cannot recommend them more!!
We wanted to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for the stunning floral arrangements that Stems created for our wedding. From the very first consultation to the final t...
ouches on our big day, their professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail truly made our vision come to life. They really listened to what we wanted and were able to deliver on the color pallet we dreamed of.
The bouquets, centerpieces, and all the floral elements were nothing short of magical. They added so much beauty to our celebration that exceeded all our expectations. Our guests were stunned, and we continue to receive compliments on how breathtaking everything looked. Especially the incredible ceiling installation!
They were also so thoughtful to let us take home a floral arrangement from our floral sample meeting and also sent beautiful flowers the week of our wedding. They were so attentive during the floral sample meeting and made sure to cover everything we could possibly need, down to the candles and holders. We also really appreciate their commitment to sustainability.
Thank you for your dedication and for making our special day even more memorable. Your passion for your craft shone through in every arrangement, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results.
Stems is amazing!! They helped with the entire process from start to finish and made sure I was going to love it all. They made time for all my questions and had such good ideas to...
improve my chuppah and table visions.
When I saw the venue day of I was blown away with what they put together. It was absolutely beautiful. I’d use them again and again!!
Julia was super responsive throughout the wedding planning process. We wanted a florist who we could give creative license to and trust that they would do an incredible job, and th...
at's just what Stems did. They helped us pick a color scheme and gave us an idea of what types of flowers would be in season for our wedding. All of the materials they sent were super helpful in giving us an idea of what everything would look like, and in the end it came out beautifully.
We could truly not be more thrilled with how stunning our wedding florals turned out. It made the space so special and we feel even better knowing about the Stems team's commitment...
to sustainability. Our guests continue to rave about how dreamy our wedding was. Julia Masotti and Stems, we could not be happier with what your talented team brought to life for us! Thank you!
Stems did such a fantastic job with bringing out retro warmth rooftop farm wedding to life. They supplied gorgeous local blooms for the tables and even created a design for our wed...
ding cake. Their ceremony nest was such a statement as well. We highly recommend them for high quality, locally sourced flowers!
Stems A La Carte flowers for my wedding were absolutely amazing!!!! They completely captured my vision but even better than what I could have imagined. I ordered 4 arrangements, a ...
bridal bouquet and boutonnières for groom and groomsmen. They went above and beyond with any extra requests I had, delivered on time, captured my inspiration and the flowers were just absolutely stunning I can’t recommend highly enough!!!
I'm already recommending Stems to my friends getting married! My partner and I did all our planning, and took a lot of florist calls - but after getting on the phone with Julia at ...
Stems, we knew we found our team.
I immediately felt calm, as Julia kindly explained the components that might go into our floral arrangements. I came in with ZERO knowledge of flowers, just a basic idea of what I wanted the look & feel to be - and Julia helped walk through pieces we could add.
After our call, Stems put together a very clear proposal and design board. We ended up making a few changes before the big day, but they were always super receptive and flexible.
The flowers were BEAUTIFUL! Our guests took more pictures of the florals than they did of us! (I kid, but almost) The Stems team did an amazing job, and we really didn't get involved more than confirming the proposal - which was great for two busy professionals :)
Would 100% recommend!
Working with Stems was one of the absolute best decisions we made for our wedding. We used them regularly prior to being engaged for bouquets and were always impressed at the quali...
ty, so we were thrilled to discover they did weddings as well.
Their team was so kind and professional while simultaneously bringing all of my ideas into one cohesive look (with their creative touch to really elevate)! The space was brought to life from their work and the staff was so fun while setting up. The work was truly stunning and I felt the most trust in letting them execute! I would highly recommend them to any couple.
Working with Stems was absolutely incredible. We got married on 2/11/23 at the Wythe Hotel. Not only did our ceremony florals look amazing, and our reception space, but they gave m...
e the perfect bridal bouquet of my DREAMS. Julia was such a great partner in helping us figure out where to place each floral fixture, and she really went above and beyond with her suggestions and recommendations. I could not have picked a better floral team to work with. They completely understood our vibe and helped craft the most gorgeous, moody, candlelit wedding. You won't regret working with Stems!
Stems was absolutely lovely to work with and the florals were gorgeous. They were communicative and easily adjusted our order based on final changes. The order was correct and deli...
vered on-time, making it completely stress-free on the wedding day.
The florals themselves were perfect - they fit our color scheme and had a great variety of both florals and vases. With the florals already being dried, we were also easily able to preserve them after the wedding.
Highly recommend!
Stems did an amazing job with the flowers for our wedding at the Wythe Hotel, including table centerpieces and a stunning greenery and floral wall. From our initial correspondence,...
we were impressed by the exceptional creativity, care, and thoughtfulness of Julia and the Stems team. From just a few conversations and pictures, Stems brought our vision to life perfectly and went the extra mile during a heat wave to set everything up beautifully. They even made an extra boutonniere for my wife so she could choose the size she preferred. And the cuff corsages were a huge hit! We’re so glad we chose Stems and enthusiastically recommend them.
I am beyond thrilled with how my wedding florals from Stems turned out! I love flowers but I am no expert so I gave lots of freedom to Zara and the team to make decisions, and we a...
re so happy we did. We asked for general color scheme and “mood” (bright and happy!) and they executed the vision completely! My guests have given compliments weeks later. If you are looking for unique floral design and wonderful people to work with look no further!
Working with Zara was perfection - she understood my vision right away! The texture, the colors, everything was flawless. She paid so much attention to detail and helped me to revi...
se the proposal multiple times when we changed our date, the event space layout, guest count, etc. due to covid. The tablescapes were pure romantic medieval magic and created my dream atmosphere. She went over and above and was so responsive and on top of everything! Zara has the best eye for event design and made everything come out stunning.
I worked with Stems for my recent wedding and every bit of the experience was amazing! I had a tight budget and time frame, which Zara and team we’re totally accommodating of! Our ...
personal and reception flowers were totally gorgeous and exactly what we asked for - if you’re looking to manage cost and want to leave the specifics to the experts , definitely check out Stems’ signature package, which kept things super easy!
As a result of the team’s patience, skill and general kindness, I’ll never go anywhere else for flowers and you shouldn’t either!
The Stems team made all my wedding dreams come true!! A few weeks later and I'm still swooning over my bouquet :) both Suzanna and Rachel were amazing to work with throughout the w...
hole planning process. I gave them a few pictures and explained my vision and they ran with it and exceeded all of my expectations! I received so many compliments from guests and even my wedding vendors (who see thousands of flowers I'm sure). I would recommend them a million times over!
We used Stems Brooklyn for our wedding at The Green Building (Brooklyn) in April 2019. We decided to only do florals for the bouquets and boutonnieres. We worked directly with Andr...
aya and she was detail-oriented, professional, and easy to work with. She made sure she understand the overall vibe and feel we were hoping for at our wedding and designed the perfect floral arrangements. Everything was very affordable (especially considering it’s NYC!) - Andraya worked within our budget and was flexible with the delivery fee since our wedding was in Brooklyn. I loved that there were different size options for the bride’s bouquet, I chose the smallest bridal bouquet (the petite) and it was perfect and light to hold. The groom was picky when it came to the boutonnieres, he didn’t want anything that reminded him of something he wore to prom! Andraya did a great job with this too! She encouraged us to send pictures of what we liked/didn’t like throughout the process and on the wedding day, we were really pleased with what she designed. We received so many compliments on our flowers! Andraya stuck to our color palette and everything was perfect. We had a great experience with Stems and highly recommend them!
I was so happy to have chosen Stems for our floral arrangements. Zara is a natural and she put together a beautiful mood board off of what very little we knew about flowers, color ...
etc. She was easy to work with and although I had a vague image in my head, she listened closely to my likes/dislikes and was able to bring my vision to life. The fact that they were experienced with our venue (The Wythe Hotel) helped as well. The price point was great (compared to some other florists in NYC, which can be outrageous) and it ended up feeling like we got even more than we had asked for! They also helped us coordinate donation of our flowers after the wedding which we were very happy about as well! Highly recommended.
My wedding flowers were the MOST BEAUTIFUL flowers ever. I went to Zara with a vision and she really and truly brought it to life. I felt so comfortable and was beyond impressed wi...
th her professionalism and artistic talent. I can't recommend Stems enough. You would be missing out if you didn't use them. 10/10 would use them again.
Where to begin ... Zara is unbelievably talented at what she does. I came to her with some scraps of an idea ("i like blue" "i like candles" "garlands are cool") -- i didn't have a...
wedding planner, I didn't have wedding colors, I just had an idea for a vibe -- and from there she created and executed an ambiance that was literally my dream come true. And she did it all accommodating my budget. Stems allows you to name your price and then works to fulfill your vision within that range, knowing where to spend the money and on what. Never wasteful. Always thoughtful. And like I said, they really take the time to understand the basics of what you want and then grow that with you. I get chills thinking about how beautiful their work was at my wedding. My venue had a very medieval feel to it but had fairly bare walls... Zara somehow installed vines to crawl up the walls, bursting from the fireplace, candles everywhere... it really felt like we were transported to another time and place. The bouquets and centerpieces she created were flawless -- just exactly matched the vibe. When I have pics back from the photographer I will add them. If you're looking for someone to hand you a bouquet of white roses and call it a day Stems really isn't for you -- they can do that, but their forte is for the bride who wants to create a multi-dimensional vibe with their florist that goes beyond the flowers themselves. Stems is a part of the family now -- we're going to hire Zara for any event we ever need flowers for. She's amazing to work with, and her work will blow you away. HIRE STEMS!!
Zara was incredible at working with us and delivering beautiful flowers on our wedding day. We didn't know exactly what we were looking for and we had a tight budget but Zara made ...
it easy for us - giving us suggestions on what we needed for our specific venue and explaining what would be in season. She was so professional and organized. We loved our bouquets and the arrangements. It was exceptional quality and came in on budget for us. We highly recommend Stems!
