Our Story

Where Luxury Blooms in the Heart of Florence, Kentucky

Welcome to Flair Flower Bar & Studio, a boutique flower shop rooted in elegance, artistry, and heartfelt intention. Located in Florence, Kentucky, just minutes from Cincinnati, we’re more than a florist—we’re your local destination for luxury floral design, curated gifts, and unforgettable experiences.

Every arrangement we create tells a story. Whether it’s a joyful celebration, a quiet moment of remembrance, or a just-because surprise, our flowers are crafted to spark emotion and make every moment feel special.


A Dream Bloomed with Purpose

Hi, I’m Ivette, the founder and floral designer behind Flair Flower Bar. I started this journey with a vision: to bring big-city floral luxury with a French twist to our community. I saw a gap in the Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati market for romantic, elegant, and elevated floral experiences—so I created Flair.

From our signature hatbox arrangements to hand-tied bouquets wrapped in layers of silk and tissue, every detail is thoughtfully designed to delight the senses. Inspired by timeless European style and infused with my own story, Flair is my way of helping others share love, celebrate beauty, and connect through flowers.


The Signature Flower Box: A Modern Floral Statement

At Flair Flower Bar, we specialize in our Signature Flower Box Arrangements—luxurious floral designs presented in custom hatboxes that feel as much like a gift as they do an experience. While this modern, fashion-forward style has been trending in major cities around the world, we’re proud to be among the first florists to bring this elevated concept to Northern Kentucky and the Greater Cincinnati area.

Designed for maximum impact and elegant presentation, our flower boxes are perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, client gifting, and high-end events. As the demand for unique and Instagram-worthy arrangements grows across the U.S., our Signature Boxes have become a sought-after favorite among customers who crave something beautiful, bold, and unforgettable.


The Ultimate Gifting Experience

We believe gifting should feel as special as the person receiving it. At Flair, every arrangement includes elegant wrapping, a signature bow, and a floral care card to help blooms last longer. Whether you’re sending birthday flowers, anniversary arrangements, or ordering a wedding bouquet, our goal is to make gifting effortless and deeply meaningful.


More Than Flowers: A Curated Gift Boutique

Step inside our Florence studio and you’ll discover more than flowers. We’ve carefully curated a boutique filled with thoughtful gifts—from artisanal home décor to locally sourced treasures. Whether you’re shopping for a friend, a hostess gift, or something to treat yourself, you’ll find pieces that are as unique and charming as the moments you’re celebrating.


From Local Weddings to Everyday Joy

We specialize in wedding florals and event flowers across Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati. From bridal party blooms to custom centerpieces, we design florals that reflect your story, your style, and your love. And for life’s everyday moments, our Signature Flower Boxes and wrapped bouquets bring luxury into your home or the hands of someone you love.


Community-Rooted, Faith-Led

Flair Flower Bar is proudly local. As a woman- and minority-owned business built on faith, creativity, and resilience, we’re passionate about making a difference. From hosting local workshops to supporting women entrepreneurs, everything we do is fueled by a heart for community and a desire to uplift others.

Meet Ivette: Heart & Hands Behind the Blooms

With over a decade of experience in floral design, retail merchandising, and product development, I’ve always been drawn to the beauty of creating meaningful experiences. My journey—from being a young floral designer to building a career in corporate floral merchandising and retail management—led me to open Flair Flower Bar & Studio and pour my heart into every detail.

What started as a dream has become a space where creativity, joy, and elegance come together. I believe flowers are more than just pretty—they’re powerful. And through Flair, I hope to share that beauty with you.
