- Kora Tolman
They understood exactly what kind of vibe I wanted and how to best tell our story. They were incredibly helpful and efficient with set up and everything went smoothly with their help. I don’t think my wedding would’ve been nearly as gorgeous without their help and floral expertise. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone(...)!
Dicentra and Lazarus were fabulous! I was so out of my comfort zone trying to figure out any (...) ideas for my wedding and they were amazing!
-Emily Pew
I had Dicentra and Lazarus do my florals for my wedding, but they did so much more than the flowers! I have to say that both Dicentra and Lazarus were so invested on my wedding day that it made me wish I’d hired them to do the coordinating too. While my partner and I were enjoying a wedding-day luncheon with close friends and family, Dicentra and Lazarus arrived at our venue to start setting up and encountered several issues with the plans we’d put in place because of poor communication from the venue. Dicentra calmly reached out to me to let me know what my options were, and helped me by making quick decisions that saved our ceremony! Seriously could not have done any of it without the both of them — and I cannot recommend them enough!!
They will seriously do everything to make sure you have an easy and worry-free best wedding day ever!! So grateful for Semperflora!

Dicentra and Lazarus' approach to their client work is captured in both their love and respect for nature, and the natural aesthetic, and also the emotion and creativity that they pour into their design and execution from day one. Their design book captured every nook and cranny of my client's wishes, her found materials, and also her overall passion for what is important to her in life. The addition of Semperflora's photography service was yet another stunning facet to the quintessential autumnal, outdoor, natural-in-nature, fly fishing-loving wedding weekend. I cannot recommend Semperflora, Dicentra, and Lazarus enough to anyone searching for that vendor that not only delivers but listens from the moment the email inquiry hits their inbox!”
“My experience with Dicentra & Lazarus was nothing short of a Pacific NorthWest hug for the soul.
- Madison Jeppson
They were professional and finished everything on time. They went above and beyond delivering the floral vision we came up with in the consultation. Dicentra especially will advocate for your dreams and I seriously needed that! They also brought personal touches to our head table (a maple leaf bud vase for my Canadian man) and my bouquet that made my husband and I feel so special! 10/10.
Dicentra and Lazarus did an amazing job at my wedding.
