A wedding florist in Lambertville for romantic, artful weddings along the Delaware River.
Lambertville is a town for creatives and romantics. Antique shops and galleries lining the streets, the Delaware River running just beyond, and the footbridge to New Hope carrying couples between two artful little worlds. There is an unstudied bohemian elegance here, and it invites florals with imagination and a sense of place.
Melissa-May Designs is a luxury floral and event design studio serving Lambertville and the Delaware River corridor. Founded by creative director Melissa-May Tarlton in 2010, the studio brings bespoke arrangements and full-service design to couples across the tri-state who want their day to feel expressive, personal, and beautifully made.
As a wedding florist in Lambertville, Melissa works by appointment and takes a limited number of events each weekend, leaving room to design something genuinely one of a kind. Romantic at heart, calm in the details, the florals are made to last, matched to the river-town spirit that drew you here.
Riverside inns and creative river-town settings
The Delaware River area gives a florist room to play. Riverside inns and historic hotels, converted mills and industrial-chic spaces, garden courtyards, and intimate galleries, with the towpath and water never far away. Just across the bridge, the stone barns and river settings of Bucks County extend the same romantic, creative mood.
Melissa leans into that artistry. Loose, garden-gathered arrangements, unexpected color and texture, installations that play against exposed brick, timber, or an open riverside view. The season and the space set the tone, and a Lambertville wedding ends up with florals as original as the town, romantic and a little untamed.
Bespoke floral and full-service design
The studio offers bespoke floral design and full-service wedding and event styling, from bridal bouquets and centerpieces to large-scale installations that reshape a room. The hand-touched details, including calligraphy, engraving, heat foiling, and painting, bring an artful, editorial finish that suits a creative river town.
Melissa-May Designs is a floral and design studio rather than a planning service, so all of the focus goes to how your day looks and feels. When a full planner is needed, Melissa can recommend trusted names and then work alongside them to bring the florals and design to life.
