about the designer

I'm Cristina

Being able to wake up and look forward to a job you love, is the biggest blessing I can ever imagine! Since 2005, I have had the wonderful opportunity to work with hundreds of couples on the biggest day of their life. It is truly an honor to be chosen to design and share-in on the many aspects that formulate such a unique experience.

Flowers tell a story from the moment they are planted to when the last petal falls. The journey they take in-between is made up intentional moments that make up our process. From care and handling to designing and installing. Every single stem has a purpose that inspires our art. 

My passion for flowers stems deeply in not just the beauty but also during a time of deep healing. Flowers nourished my soul and rejuvenated my creativity. Over the years, my business blossom with hundreds of events, countless relationships built, and MANY happy clients.

When I am not meeting with new couples and curating one-of-a-kind events. you can find me mentoring creative entrepreneurs to build better businesses and building community over at FLEURSOCIETY.

My favorite
things!

My little family

01

My husband and I met in college but didn't start dating until several years later! A couple babies later, we are still laughing, eating pizza, and nerding out to the next movie or Netflix binge. 

MY PRIDE AND JOY

02

These two littles keep me on my toes every day and I love it! Being a mom is the best job in the world, but snuggle time with these two sweetie pies is just as awesome too. 

DIsney trips

03

What can I say? I'm a child at heart and trips to the happiest place on Earth are a must. We find time to get away at least 1x per month and nothing beats experiencing this through the eyes of my kiddos.

Teaching

04

I have been teaching in the classroom for over 16 years! I merged my passion for flowers and education into building a floral community where I teach designers how to build better businesses. Seriously, my favorite thing to do!

fur babies

05

I am huge dog lover and at one point, I had 5 doggo's lighting up my life. Here is Dexter and Lily, who are best pals and the sweetest companions who are super loyal and full of love. 

BOOK WORM

06

When I am not organizing, planning, or running after my kiddos, I am usually reading a good ol' business book or novel. I read about 35 books per year!

Born and raised in sunny California, I grew up in a big family who put education and hard work first. I can thank my parents for always encouraging me to find success, but also fulfillment in the process. This has always inspired me to take my passion for flowers to spread joy to others one petal at a time. 

MY FLOWER JOURNEY

At a very young age, I gravitated towards helping and creating impact. I graduated with a Masters in Education, started teaching, and launched my floral design business at the same time. I had ZERO knowledge on how to build a business, much less run it. It was a struggle that taught me so many lessons!  

MY FLOWER JOURNEY

In a short amount of time, I was booking 100+ weddings, and although I enjoyed being part of all those special moments, I quickly burned out trying to balance it all. It was then that I start to create systems to streamline my business and slowly but surely, I scaled down so that I can focus on serving my clients well.

MY FLOWER JOURNEY

Today, I take on a select few full-scale weddings that allow me to be creative and fulfill my love for designing for couples who look forward to a day filled with beauty and love among their friends and family. Each love story that I get to be a part of, is a moment that I am both honored and grateful to have a hand in.

MY FLOWER JOURNEY

Additionally, I have cultivated a community of floral designers around the world that empower and support one another. At FLEURSOCIETY, I've created multiple resources and events to educate and mentor floral designers to grow their businesses and foster community over competition.
