Melissa Jane is a home-based floral design studio on the Kāpiti Coast, run by a designer with more than 16 years in floristry who grows her own blooms. The studio focuses on luxury wedding florals, events and seasonal gift bouquets. Its website says the studio is not open to the public, and that its designs use homegrown flowers and no non-biodegradable flower foam. The website lists design and installation services, packages for different budgets, and delivery across the Wellington and Kāpiti region.
We hear the studio is closed for the season, and bookings are closed for the upcoming season. Bouquets are available from spring to early autumn. Customers describe the wedding flowers as gorgeous, and say the designer understood their vision quickly, with little guidance needed. One customer says the designer helped choose the baskets and colour palette, and the flowers tied everything together on the day. Others say many guests commented on the florals.
