BAILEY RIVER
Floral + Botanical Designer for 10 years.
My work is an extension of my love for art, beauty, nature and self-honoring. As a trained Herbalist, Nutritionist, Life Coach, Poet, Dancer + Florist I have an obsession with plants, well-being, self-expression and movement.

My work reflects my love for wild, untamed and
overgrown spaces. It is infused with magic, color, celebration and symbolism.

I create floral, herbal + edible manifestos: art that inspires, celebrates and connects us with the natural world and the beauty we are all here to embody.

For the past decade I have crafted and carried out hundreds of floral masterpieces for weddings and events. Upon this threshold of mastery I offer my work as a soul expression, unique completely because it comes from the unexplored depths of who I am. It is how I learn about myself, how I work through feelings. It is where I play. And it is through the inspiration of ecosystems, forests, meadows, deserts, patterns in lichen and the knowledge of herbs and meaning, that I offer something completely connected. My work is now fully foraged or self grown.

My creations explode with wild celebration and overgrown wonder. They reflect deeper truths through color, texture, movement and symbolism. My dream work spans from floral tributes, that tell a story and celebrate life, to all encompassing indoor ecosystems for exploring.

I want to birth spaces where people fall in love with their nature through nature. Where people feel abundance because nature is abundant when we work with it. 
​
My desire is to co-create with companies, performance artists, event coordinators, coffee shops, restaurants, other artists, community leaders and anyone else who's space, event, project or retreat could be elevated and celebrated by botanical art.

I am here to throw my entire being into projects, elevating spaces, bringing shock and awe to onlookers and reconnecting them to the fulfillment found sitting in midst of natural beauty and celebration. It is my joy, my honor, my calling.
