We are an inviting, creative, unique, and accommodating florist/ planner that focuses on working with couples to make their vision a reality. We are professional, but still, have fun while doing so and focus on making your day as stress-free as possible.
What We Offer:
We provide a variety of services including Day of coordination, help with planning as early as day one, rentals ( ex. votives, glassware, arches), and of course, flowers and décor.
Our Wedding Style Is:
Our usual style is traditional, but with a twist. We are adaptable and do not limit ourselves when it comes to new ideas and challenges. We take them head-on and tell ourselves that nothing is impossible.
Our Personality Is:
Fun-loving, welcoming, and creative but, still responsible and detail-oriented.
We cover our bases and listen to our clients so that we can make it as stress-free as possible. We take into account what they’ve told us, but also think of the details that they may have missed.
We Love Being a Part of the Wedding Industry Because:
We love being wedding florists because it allows us to help make someone’s dreams for their special day come true. No two weddings are ever the same and we love helping each one be as unique as the couple getting married.
What Makes Our Business Stand Out From Other Vendors Is:
We have a team like no other. We work together to accomplish the best possible outcome for our clients.
Our Pricing:
Our pricing for planning services varies depending on how much help is needed but starts at $1,900 for a basic month of day-of coordination. Average pricing for personals (including bridal bouquets, bridesmaids bouquets, groom/ groomsmen bouts, parents, etc. ) is $1,800, depending on the wedding party size and flower choices, and we “toss” in the toss bouquet as a free gift to our brides!
Meet Melanie
I grew up in an Alabama home where my parents loved to entertain. Whether it was a small dinner party for six or a Christmas celebration for 200, the love of entertaining has been in my life since I was a child. The love of decorating, planning, and cooking for events inspired me to create Lemon Drops. I’m blessed to have my husband by my side who has the same love, vision, and desire to create exciting weddings & events for our friends, family, and clients.

Dark and Moody Minimalist Downtown St. Pete Wedding | The Urban Stillhouse
The only florals we included were the bouquets and boutonnieres which were all white.
I met Lemon Drops Weddings and Events randomly during a meeting with the Urban Stillhouse events team. They were setting up for a wedding, and I asked if they were available for wedding planning for my wedding as well as florals. It was perfect that they provided services for both! The Lemon Drops team was fantastic, worked quickly, and was absolutely reliable throughout the duration of our wedding day and throughout the weeks leading up to our event.
Pink and Red Floral-Filled Backyard St. Pete Wedding
The dress and the flowers were the most important. I wanted both of those to make a huge statement and planned almost everything else around those. I wanted someone who could do a large statement piece because I had big dreams for the large oak tree in my parents' backyard.
I chose Lemon Drops because I saw a styled shoot they did on Instagram where they had this amazing cascading tree piece. Their service was awesome. Melanie is very confident and takes charge which was necessary for the planning process and really helped everything come together in the end.
Luxurious Downtown St. Pete Burgundy Garden Wedding | Vinoy Renaissance
We were inspired by outdoor garden weddings with plenty of beautiful, elegant florals.
Lemon Drops had such incredible creative vision and went above and beyond in execution. All of our guests were whisked away from our current pandemic reality and transported to a romantic, luscious, modern, yet elegant garden wedding thanks to Melanie and her team at Lemon Drops.
Pink and Green Tropical Rooftop St. Pete Beach Wedding | Hotel Zamora
Our florals were inspired by our tropical theme and venue. We wanted to further showcase the stunning tropical greenery around Hotel Zamora and tie in pops of our wedding colors with the florals.
I vetted a few floral services prior to choosing Lemon Drops, and their customer service won me over. From our first call, they were already working with my budget, making suggestions, and seeing the vision we had. I gave them a few inspiration pictures and said do your thing and they sure did deliver! They were so pleasant to work with and kept me up to date with the final design and pricing.
