About The Velvet Poppy

Kelsey Forrest

Lead Floral Designer

Congratulations on this exciting journey that you are embarking on! Ahhh, wedding planning! :) I have to tell you that I’m so excited that you’re here, friend. The Velvet Poppy provides couples getting married in the Asheville & Hendersonville, NC area with fresh and gorgeous floral designs and details to make your wedding day swoon worthy. Designed with so much love, so much gratitude, and of course, good vibes. To compliment your yummy floral designs, we love to incorporate plant-dyed silk or velvet ribbon, vintage brass and glass pieces, and of course, candle light (cue the romantic vibes).

Our timeless and vintage inspired floral designs are lovingly crafted by an expert dedicated to making your day as dreamy as you have imagined it to be. When possible (typically April-October), we enjoy sourcing a bulk of our in-season florals from local North & South Carolina flower farmers which not only ensures the freshest and most beautiful blooms grown by people we love and trust, but it is also important to us to maintain a low impact on the Mother (Nature, that is) when we can. Also, who doesn't love supporting local small farmers? We celebrate all kinds of love here and would love to flower for you on your very special day.

    Kelsey was one of my favorite parts of our wedding. Her creativity, encouragement, and enthusiasm kept me motivated throughout wedding planning. Everyone was amazed by her hard work and talent. Her florals made the day! I am so moved every time I think of the florals she created for us - each piece was thoughtful and gorgeous. Her talent and careful attention to my wants/needs/dreams was evident in each arrangement. If you are fortunate enough to work with Kelsey, know that your investment is worth every penny and know that you should have a plan in place for preserving her beautiful work! Kelsey is talented, passionate, and determined. I still cannot believe everything she accomplished throughout the wedding day. She arrived early to create the most gorgeous ceremony setting and stayed late to transform those designs several times over - from the reception arrangements, to special ones placed in each hotel room of our guests on premise. It was such a joy to have those flowers with me in the days to follow the wedding. I loved that they were local, as fresh as possible, and completely unique. I’ve never seen flowers like the ones in my bouquet. I’m so thankful for Kelsey’s support and patience as I planned and made up my mind about what I wanted, and I thank her for going above and beyond on her delivery. I did not have a wedding party in effort to keep my wedding small, but having her support was comparable to that of a supportive bridesmaid. So grateful again for her kindness and efforts all the way through.
