She started making arrangements at the age of 16 using the flowers from her mother's garden. Neighbors and friends soon started asking her to make bouquets for them and so she started working at at a local florist here in Tallahassee after school. She would walk from Leon to work and says she remembers her first real design work was making boutonnières for all the ministers at First Baptist Church. They were featured on TV and she was so proud to see her work on the air! After high school she went to New Orleans School of Floral Design before moving back to Tallahassee and eventually opening her own shop, Jessie's at Carriage Gate.

What Hip Givers Know The Michael Cohen Group research reveals just how much people love to give and receive flowers. Ninety-two percent of women can remember the last time they received flowers, and 97 percent of men and women recall the last time they gave a floral gift. The hundreds of women and men surveyed described a gift of flowers as unlike any other because flowers create lasting memories and make people – both givers and receivers – feel cared about and special. The fleeting nature of flowers also encourages people to appreciate flowers when they are beautiful and vibrant. “With a gift of flowers, you know that someone is thinking of you right now, this very minute,” Cole said. “It's the memory of the gift and the emotions that last forever.” What Hip Givers Said 88% say flowers can change your mood for the better 99% agree that a person who gives flowers is thoughtful 89% believe that someone who gives flowers is sophisticated 83% would like to receive flowers when they a...

Contemporary bouquets are inspired by unconventional ideas, styles and patterns and are designed with no specific geometric form. They are usually created with flowers that have definite form and add character to a bouquet (such as calla lilies, orchids and anthuriums). Contemporary bouquets represent the individuality of the bride and are perfect for a sophisticated, cosmopolitan style wedding. They're simplistic but have the added grace of asymmetrical design.
