Bespoke wedding flowers in Italy

Crafting your dream wedding with bespoke, breathtaking florals in the heart of Italy

This is me, Sonja

Florals that evoke Emotions, designed in Florence, Italy

FunkyBird is a floral studio based in Florence, Italy, working with flowers as a material rather than a formula. Our work begins with close attention to place, light, colour, and how these elements are experienced on a wedding day.

We design wedding flowers for destination weddings across Tuscany, the Amalfi Coast, Lake Como, and other Italian landscapes. Each project responds to its setting and to the people getting married, rather than following a fixed style. The floral work is meant to belong where it is, and to the moment it is made for.

Some couples arrive with a clear direction, others with fragments. A palette, a reference, something they keep coming back to. Our role is to shape that starting point into floral compositions that support the day and sit comfortably within the wider visual story.

The process is calm and well defined. Communication is clear, decisions are taken with time, and the work develops step by step. There is room to adjust, to refine, and to let the project settle before it takes form.

FunkyBird works with couples who pay attention. Who notice atmosphere and material, and who want their wedding flowers to feel like part of the place and the day, not an addition placed on top of it.
