Kate Rutter (Intuitive) Florist

Kate Rutter is so much more than a florist; She is an artist, and her medium is flowers. When we first chatted, I shared, quite frankly, the most basic and uninspired vision I had for wedding flowers. I love flowers, but I was getting married in February, and wasn’t quite sure how to break free from the lush white flowers and greenery that seem to be the standard set for weddings today. Kate honored our (admittedly, not quite us) vision, and built out two beautiful vision boards that were aligned to what I shared. But, in true Kate fashion, she also included a wildcard option, and I will always be grateful that she did. Beyond the comfortable classic of white and green, she considered our personalities and story, and dreamed up the most fun and joyful pastel rainbow disco party. I fully trusted her, and we went with the wildcard option. Kate’s execution of this vision, with the support of her professional and extremely attentive team, was next level. I didn’t know a single thing about electric cornflower blue Japanese sweet peas or what kind of color palettes were possible in February, but now I do. Kate’s floral vision defined my wedding, and set the day apart from any event I had ever attended before. She went above and beyond, by doing every small thing with great intentionality. Sourcing one-of-a-kind vessels, sooo many taper candles chosen in intentional hues, and specific flowers that she felt represented us; Kate even shared special flowers with my stylist on my wedding day, and incorporated them into my hair. She created a setting beyond our wildest dreams, using a variety of blooms that were completely unexpected, yet perfect aligned. We had a tight timeline, and Kate was so kind throughout the entire planning process, offering endless flexibility, creative insight, and artistic expertise to ensure that our event looked and felt perfectly us. Kate Rutter! WOW! No one is doing florals quite like this. ♥️

I had the chance to visit Kate’s shop when I stopped in to purchase an arrangement to brighten someone’s day that I knew was going through a difficult period in their life. As someone who has designed with fleurs myself for over six years, I have tremendous respect for Kate and her craft. Her creations are truly breathtaking, and you can instantly tell she pours love and intention into every design, whether it’s for a wedding or a personal arrangement. From the moment you walk through the door, it’s clear that flowers form the heart of the space. Thoughtful choices are behind her arrangements, and she offers a meticulously curated assortment of items like handcrafted incense, candles, ritual items, tarot, ceramics, and more. Each is ideal for complementing the florals and creating the perfect gift—either for yourself or for others. There is no question that she has completely transformed this space into a place where one can have a truly unique experience! Now that I finally live in the neighborhood I am looking forward to investing in her services to add light, whimsy and joy to my own home on a regular basis. Looking forward to my next visit—20/10 recommend planning a trip to this magical paradise!

Kate is THE floral queen. Not only are her floral arrangements, beautifully artistic, but she has the warmest spirit and presence about her. Her flowers speak for themselves so instead of trying to describe how moving her work is, I will leave a few photos below. 💖

Kate did florals for our wedding and it was the most magical art I have ever been immersed in. We received loads of compliments about her work. Kate was amazing through the whole process, from our phone calls discussing our vision of the day (and I was lost at the beginning), to updates as she designed her work, and communication as our big day approached. I felt like I could be transparent about my floral dreams and my budget, and Kate helped make it work by focusing her efforts where they would go the furthest. Kate is more than a florist - she is a true artist and I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Kate for bringing so much magic to our day!!
