Hi there, I am Wendy (she/her), the owner and lead florist for The Prickly Thistle.

For over twenty years, I've been in the exciting world of planning large-scale events and delightful theatre productions! Thirteen years ago, I dove headfirst into the magical realm of wedding planning, where I not only coordinated unforgettable celebrations but also sprinkled a little floral magic for couples who just needed a few blooms to brighten their special day. Roughly six years ago, my floral journey blossomed further as I began lending a helping hand to other wedding planners, creating intentional, design-driven wedding florals for couples who value thoughtful details, cohesive design, and a highly personalized experience. In 2024, The Prickly Thistle—my very own venture that brings floral services directly to couples, ensuring your love story is as beautiful as the flowers that grace it!

I absolutely thrive on coffee and share my cozy office with three wonderfully high-maintenance furry friends! Late at night, you'll find me diving into design research while soaking in a bubble bath, and I love to celebrate the day's end with a delightful glass of red wine and some rich dark chocolate. As I’m on my way to deliver your beautiful wedding flowers, you can bet I’ll be joyfully “ugly singing” along to my favorite tunes in the car!
