My floral design aesthetic aims to highlight the inherent beauty of flowers.

From childhood memories of poppies, to first working in a Knoxville flower shop in college, many moments & people have cultivated my love & knowledge of floral design.

Wither & Bloom Designs works with premium, in-season blooms to create fine art florals, curating each event to the vision of our client.

I have the honor of working with incredible clients, planners, & my wonderful floral team to bring countless floral visions to life.

I could not be more grateful to do what I love each day.

Lauren Stovall—

From designing for some of the most talented & sought after floral designers in the country, to previously owning my own floral design business, I am proud to bring my hard earned experience & expertise to Wither & Bloom Designs. 

Through many years of traveling as a freelance designer, I've witnessed nature all across the country — existing & thriving in its element.  

I aim to bring that same natural ease & grace of florals to every Wither & Bloom event. 

My absolute favorite remark to hear is "That looks like it was always there".

Chris Stovall—

The temporary nature of flowers makes working with them so precious.  

I approach floral design as an extension of my art practice, grasping for foraged & seasonal elements that draw a guest into the local landscape.

Through personal & thoughtful design, Wither & Bloom creates immersive environments that uniquely celebrate each event. 

It’s a pleasure to see an event go from the months of planning to the executed vision & to work with so many skilled designers along the way.
