By now I’m sure that it has become pretty obvious that I am a flower fanatic, Jamie even proposed to me in front of a flower shop to give you an idea of just how much. In the past few years, I have been incredibly lucky to have collaborated with so many talented florists in Toronto whether it be on floral arranging tips, events or workshops. The talent in Toronto never ceases to amaze me, so today I wanted to share 6 of my favorite floral studios in Toronto that are killing the flower game. They all bring something unique to the table so whether you are looking to plan your wedding like I am or need an arrangement for an event I hope that you find this guide helpful in your quest to find a florist you love.
