Hi! I’m Carly.

Travel and natural beauty are my vices. I'm always searching for that sweet spot where nature, people, and architecture intersect to form jaw-dropping and unforgettable moments. From marsh sunsets to the hustle and bustle of a busy street market, I believe you can find inspiration in almost any situation. Whether you're experiencing a new culture or simply discovering a different perspective at a familiar place, beauty is always waiting to be uncovered.

My little squad consists of my husband, Adam, our boys, Elliott and Thomas, and our goofy sheepadoodle, Taco. I love working and flowering throughout the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area. It’s been an honor to work with so many great families and other wedding vendors. Cincinnati is full of beautiful venues and locations; I love connecting throughout this great city.

I would absolutely love to meet over coffee to discuss your wedding or event. Please feel free to email me at carly@carlymessmer.com or fill out the form on our Contact page. My passion is to create thoughtfully designed wedding flowers that reflect your personal taste and style. I look forward to speaking with you!

xx, Carly Messmer
