Philippians 4:8
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
YOUR FLORISTS
Matt & Auna Cantril, with their three young boys, are a joy-filled family who love the community of Wichita. God has graciously shown His love to them by sending his Son Jesus Christ to live a perfect and sinless life and then to sacrifice Himself on the Cross (a gruesome and horrible death) for their sins and the sins of every person so that they may live this life on earth in anticipation of spending an eternal life with God the Father in Heaven. (Have you heard a version of this story? Well.. we wholeheartedly believe it and are willing to bet our lives on it.) Matt and Auna want nothing more than to share this good news with everyone they come into contact with via floristry, community, and any other way God provides.
THE STUDIO
From single arrangements to large-scale luxury weddings - this studio has allowed for the production of many beautiful blooms. It is a great blessing for Auna and Matt to have the ability to run their business so close to home as they hold the responsibility of raising their three boys very dear to their hearts.
A few of our favorite features in the studio include the walk-in cooler (a must for keeping blooms as fresh as possible), lovingly built by her dad, Ted Wilbur. If you know him, you love him - there truly aren’t many men as incredible as this one. She also treasures her vase rental collection stored inside of her Grandparent’s antique hutch. And we can’t forget the custom workbench with a center cut-out for easy stem disposal — another brilliant addition by Auna’s dad. Seriously, you’ve got to meet this guy!
Auna
has had a love for flowers since in childhood, when she would proudly gather irises from a neighbor’s garden to bring home to her mother — bulb and all. What began as wonder grew into a lifelong passion for design and beauty. Now, with over 10 years of experience and more than 100 custom weddings across Wichita, Auna serves as our lead floral designer. She loves listening to each couple’s story and crafting florals that feel personal, creative, and thoughtfully made for them.
Matt
who is a Pastor by trade, plays the important roles of administrator, organizer, scheduler, and resident heavy-lifter (those elevated table arrangements are no joke — and yes this is Auna writing… have you seen those biceps? *wink wink). Matt keeps everything running smoothly behind the scenes — we like to joke that he follows Auna around with a broom, calendar, and her phone that she left behind while she makes beautiful messes.
