ABOUT

Avery Patten Floral & Design Studio is a Southside based fresh flower boutique dedicated to the art of flower arranging. The studio is a place where one can be inspired by melding of the flowers forms, colors, and textures with their containers. Here one can participate in floral design classes, have a special occasion arrangement crafted, or work with one of our designers to customize the flowers for you private party, wedding, or corporate event.

The studio’s founder, Avery Patten, started arranging flowers when she was five under the guidance of her mother. Her interest was further fostered by her maternal grandmother, a senior flower show judge. Avery obtained her professional floral training in Kyoto, Japan and Sydney, Australia. There she studied Ikebana, contemporary English, European, and Australian design. She has been both an independent wedding floral designer and a staff designer for Floriade, a leading Sydney boutique serving Australian celebrities.
