We cannot recommend Stef and The Local Petal enough!! She was super responsive and accommodating even when I had a million last minute changes to the floral vision, and she executed it with precision. We were upfront with her that we were looking to keep floral budgets low, and she was so helpful in finding ways to maximize the amount of florals but keep costs within our budget. The florals exceeded our expectations and were gorgeous. Stef is the best!!

Stefanie Spear
Minnesota-based Owner
Hey there! I'm Stefanie, and I'm the owner of the Local Petal in Minnesota. I have loved working with flowers since I got a part time job in a floral shop during college. I worked at that shop for 10 years until my husband and I bought our home in the cities, and I began my journey with the Local Petal. I absolutely love bringing floral visions to life. My favorite arrangements have lots of textures and scents brought together in fluid color themes. Creating with flowers is literally my dream job & I’m excited to help create lasting memories with beautiful floral moments.
Rachel Myers
Iowa-based Owner
Hello! I'm Rachel! I run the Local Petal in Iowa. Flowers have always been more than a job to me. I'm especially passionate about helping people create florals that feel personal, beautiful and true to their style. I'm also slightly obsessed with color palettes, so dreaming up the perfect combination of blooms and tones is one of my favorite parts of the process. I have over 13 years experience in the floral industry, using my creative talent to put together bouquets, custom arrangements, and anything needed for your event. Flowers can completely transform a space, make photos feel magical, and brighten someone's entire day. I'm excited to help you bring your vision to life!

The flowers were gorgeous, the arrangements were perfect, and they stood out for their uniqueness and colors. We're so excited for our photos to come back and to see the florals displayed in them :) We appreciate how easy Stefanie Spear, the Owner, made things easy to work though during the entire process over the last months.

We planned our wedding from a distance so had to just trust that our florist would put something nice together. Stefanie was great to communicate with, and I loved her process. We ...

gave her some ideas, and then she proposed, with pictures, a range of flowers she could include. We gave feedback (on her already nice proposal), and she made it even better. The final products, both for our arrangements and my bouquet, surpassed my expectations. They were stunning, unique, smelled amazing, and received tons of complements. So glad we chose the Local Petal.
