  • Blooming with Lauren

    My name is Lauren Youmans and I am the owner and lead floral designer for Blooming With Lauren! I have had a dream since I was a little girl frolicking in my grandmother’s garden to be a florist, but naturally with a surgeon as a father I went into medicine becoming a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. I ended up leaving my practice as a PNP after my second daughter was born and doing health and wellness coaching from home. In 2022 I decided to follow my dream and passion of being a floral designer and started doing wedding florals and hosting floral workshops and selling my floral arrangements.
