About A Lily Among Thorns

A Lily Among Thorns

Lead Floral Designer

A Lily Among Thorns is a floral design studio in Northern New Jersey. Isabel’s love for flowers stemmed from a young age, as she was often found picking wild flowers barefoot. After receiving her bachelor's degree in English Language Arts, her second love, she found that there was even more poetry to be found in the flowers she had always loved. Now, she works in wedding and event floral design with a limited amount of couples a year.

Her source of inspiration are these same wildflowers and the way that they grow: perfectly imperfect. She is often found beaming upon discovering a stem with a unique bend or a bloom that effortlessly floats. As a result, her work reflects movement and dimension to create an overall organic design. Although cut flowers are an ephemeral medium, Isabel finds the fragility of flowers to make them all the more captivating. She seeks to inspire others by honoring nature’s unapologetic poetry for life’s most joyful celebrations.

  • Prospect Park Boathouse Wedding

    We had the absolute pleasure working with Isabel for our Prospect Park Boathouse wedding. We knew from the start that florals were going to play a big role in our wedding, and we wanted a specific style as well. My planner recommended Isabel and going with her was the best decision. Isabel is incredibly friendly and professional, always available to give feedback and bounce ideas off of. I gave her my inspo board and she really, truly understood my vision. The mood boards she provides also helped me convey the wedding theme with other vendors as well. I'll never forget seeing my dreams come to life in front of my eyes on our wedding day. Seeing her whole team working on making the ceremony arch and aisles ready was incredible. The tablescapes were absolutely insane- everything I could've hoped for and more. I would absolutely recommend Isabel to anyone getting married.

  • Amazing!

    Loved working with Isabel. She had great suggestions for us when we came in with a vague vision, and stayed super-flexible and kind through every stage of the planning and execution, even helping fashion a last-minute unplanned corsage just before the aisle walk. She helped connect us with a flower recycling service as well, in response to my wish for a sustainable event. The end result was lovely. Couldn't have asked for better than Isabel!

  • Amazing and a dream to work with!

    Isabel is an incredible florist and person - we could not recommend her more! From start to finish, working with Isabel was a joy and she brought so much positive energy to every conversation we had. Even at the proposal stage, her materials were super polished and she was so kind in taking time to explain her process and listen to what I was looking for. The level of collaboration throughout the planning process was a dream, it seemed like no question was too small and no ask was too big. It was so nice to have a creative partner like Isabel and she helped us find solutions that worked within our budget and style preferences. I felt super heard and Isabel always had our best interests at heart when guiding us through decisions. And on our big day everything was so beautifully put together, and Isabel was even flexible enough to accommodate some last minute changes to the weather plan. We are so so happy with how Isabel helped create the most beautiful mood and florals for our wedding!

    Isabel was absolutely incredible to work with. She listened intently to every single one of our notes and wishes, was so responsive and communicative, professionalism couldn’t be beat and so incredibly talented. When the day came, I was shocked at her and her teams execution. She took note of every tiny thing I said and incorporated it perfectly. She made the wedding planning process so enjoyable and seamless. I couldn’t recommend our experience working with her more. Our venue at the Prospect Park Boathouse had a very tight install window and they executed fabulously. If you want unmatched professionalism and stunning design go with A Lily Among Thorns.
