About Me
I moved here from Hawaii, originally from California, a Coast Guard dependent of two retired Coasties. I’ve lived in so many beautiful places, and Vermont is now my home. I was inspired by our florist for our wedding in 2020, and have since absolutely enjoyed crafting Whimsical floral for weddings and special occasions. I’m also so excited to be starting a portfolio of candid moments between elderly persons in monochromatic rose, blue, and black and white tone photographs. I’m booking now with special pricing as I’m a beginner, and hoping to save my profits to purchase a point and shoot mirrorless camera! Wish me luck, pray, and please send others my way!
"Alethea was so sweet and helpful from the second I inquired about floral for my wedding. She worked with me to make a vision board and sent me ideas the whole way. My floral was probably my favorite part of the day and I got so many compliments about my bouquet. It was everything I envisioned and it really made a statement and made me feel so much more beautiful. Thank you again 💞"Sara of Barre, VT 2022

"Alethea was such a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. She was extremely tentative with us from the start. She set up a special Pinterest board us so we could share ideas of what we were thinking. She even sent me pictures of flowers to review the week prior for our arrangements. We absolutely loved working with her. She is incredibly talented and put together masterpieces that were different then the everyday arrangements. Every person who saw our flowers were obsessed. She did an incredible job and I was so excited to got to meet her and her husband when they dropped them off for us. We could not have been happier with the experience! Thank you for everything!!"Megan of Woodstock, VT 2021

"I got a beautiful arrangement of flowers for Valentine's Day that had my favorite colors and felt like it was especially made with me in mind.My Valentine's arrangement was a surprise but my husband and I had bought an arrangement from Whimsical, Floral, & Watermelon before as a gift and I was very impressed by the way she worked, the way she communicated with us about what we were after, and of course the result! Alethea has skillful attention to detail and creates unique, gorgeous arrangements. I highly recommend Whimsical, Floral, & Watermelon!"Sakile of Colchester, VT 2021
