I am Chrissy the owner, florist/decor designer and planner. I have over 20 years of experience working in a floral shop where I planned, created and executed weddings and events. I graduated from Purdue with a bachelors degree in Agriculture Business and Science and have a Master's degree in Education from Cardinal Stritch College. I have planned and coordinated for weddings, banquets, fundraisers, proms and even planned, managed and ran a high school classroom and FFA program for 12 years where I taught and coached Horticulture/Floriculture classes and teams. In 2015 I decided to branch out on my own and created Special Occasion Designs after leaving the classroom to be home more with my family. My passion has always been to help teach others about the industry overall and to create fun and inspired floral designs. I will always work with all of my clients to make sure that they are able to have the flowers and decor for the beautiful event they desire.
I am Maddie a designer and setup crew.
I am Jenny one of the designers and onsite crew.

"When we first met with Chrissy, I honestly had no idea what kind of flowers I wanted. I had a color scheme in mind but that was it. Chrissy had so many wonderful ideas and pictures to show me that made the entire process so easy. We ordered flowers very early on and I changed my mind along the way a few times. Chrissy was always accommodating and more than happy to meet my Pinterest expectation needs! She went above and beyond to make our centerpieces, bouquets, and floral arrangements throughout our venue absolutely beautiful and perfect! One of her assistants, Taylor, set up the day of our wedding. It was a HUGE relief knowing we were in good hands and I didn’t stress once about anything floral related. I couldn’t recommend Chrissy and her staff enough to anyone who is looking for an amazing floral experience!!" Jaymie
