Source and Stem
I spent over $13,000 finding these 25+ suppliers so you don't have to spend or waste a cent of it.
After more than 650 preservation orders - over 2,000 bridal bouquets handled - and three years sourcing artificial flowers directly from China, I created the resource I wish existed when I started.
Over the past three years I've tested suppliers, ordered samples, made expensive mistakes, and dealt with shipping delays, customs issues, poor-quality products and unreliable vendors - so you don't have to.Today I have a network of over 25 vetted suppliers producing luxury artificial flowers and event décor that genuinely rival fresh florals in appearance, texture and quality. These aren't suppliers I found through Google searches. They're suppliers I've personally ordered from, tested, and held to the same standards I use every day working with brides and preserving wedding flowers.If I wouldn't confidently recommend a supplier to one of my own clients, they don't make the list.I know the difference between a flower that photographs beautifully and one that looks cheap. I know what feels realistic in the hand, which flowers hold up at events, and what brides actually notice.Anyone can find a supplier. Very few people can tell you whether the flowers that arrive are truly worth buying for a luxury wedding or event. That is the gap Source & Stem fills.
What’s Inside:
Luxury Artificial Flower SuppliersPersonally vetted suppliers covering real touch roses, Austin roses, spray roses, peonies, hydrangeas, tulips, ranunculus, delphinium, sweet pea, chamomile, snow willow, greenery, flower walls, ceremony flowers, artificial bouquets and full wedding installations.For every supplier you'll find: supplier information, product specialities, minimum order quantities, quality notes, pricing guidance, whether they produce genuine realistic-grade or standard silk, and my honest assessment.Event Decor SuppliersYou'll also get access to suppliers for centrepiece stands, flower stands, vases and bud vases, lanterns, candle holders, wedding arches, backdrops, display structures and decorative hardware - so you're not just sourcing flowers, you're building complete looks.Freight and Shipping GuidanceOne of the biggest mistakes people make isn't choosing the wrong supplier. It's shipping. Most businesses lose money paying separate shipping fees from multiple suppliers and making costly, avoidable freight mistakes.Inside, you'll get a private introduction to the freight partner I've trusted for years. They consolidate orders from multiple suppliers into one shipment and handle customs for you. Transit times and rates are quoted based on your shipment's measurements, and you choose the option that suits you. Express options often attract customs duty, so I'll always guide you to the choice that keeps your costs down.A Signature Build RecipeYou'll also get one of my most requested signature arrangement recipes - the exact flowers, quantities and suppliers I used to build an arrangement that's already had wonderful feedback, with a full walkthrough so you can recreate the look yourself. Not just ingredients - the finished dish.Who this is for:
Wedding floristsFaux floral designersEvent stylistsFlower hire/rental businessesDIY brides who want luxury-quality flowers without the guesswork, the wasted money, or the shipping headaches.
If I wouldn't confidently put it in front of one of my own brides, it doesn't make the list!Access is delivered by email within 24 hours of purchase.

Direct Factory Sourcing Trip — China, February 2027
In February 2027 I travel to China and source directly on behalf of a small number of clients. This is forbusinesses ready to scale and buy with confidence.What makes this different from any other sourcing trip: I have established connections directly with factories.I'm not walking around wholesale markets and showrooms hoping to find something good. Through threeyears of building these relationships, I go straight into the factories themselves — where the flowers are actually made.This means if you have custom-made orders — specific colours, bespoke arrangements, particular sizes, or something you simply can't find ready-made — I can place those custom requests directly with the factory on your behalf, in person, and make sure they're made to your exact specification.Factory access is where the real value is. Better pricing, custom capability, genuine quality control at source, and the ability to commission exactly what your business needs rather than settling for what's on the shelf.Everything is included in the package price — the factory visits, the sourcing, the custom order placement, the quality checks and the coordination. There are no hidden costs layered on top.● Direct factory access — not just shops or showrooms● Custom order placement on your behalf, made to your specification● Product inspections and quality assessments at source● Supplier and factory meetings● Video walkthroughs so you see exactly what you're buying● Freight coordination and consolidated shipping supportInvestment: $497 plus 5% of any orders placed on your behalf. You cover your own flowers and shipping; the fee covers my time, expertise and factory relationships.My Promise
