A floral design company based in Portland, Oregon, SELVA creates wedding and event flowers that are organic, unstructured, unique and abundant with a focus on large floral and greenery instillations. Designs are inspired by the ever changing seasons; using flowering branches and daffodils for spring events, lush heirloom garden roses and cafe au lait dahlias in the summer and berries and grasses in the fall and winter. Owner Sarah Blasi focuses on using locally and sustainably grown flowers from her own small flower farm and partner farms. Sarah approaches every arrangement as though it were a sculpture, each piece intentionally added or removed, molded bit by bit, allowing the direction of the piece to be defined by both her hands and the medium itself. The result is something refreshingly organic and totally unique. She seeks out the best blooms for each special event or wedding, often jumping fences and trudging through forests and overgrown fields to find that perfect flower, fruit on the vine or blooming branch. Recognized as a top wedding florist in Portland, SELVA has been published in numerous print and on-line magazines and blogs including Once Wed, Portland Bride and Groom and Green Wedding Shoes to name a few. SELVA creates floral design and styling for weddings, parties, special events, corporate gatherings and is available for hire as a prop stylist, design consultant and instillation artist. Available for travel world wide.
