Emplume was created by Carrie and Shannon while they were planning the details of Carrie's wedding. The women were looking for a fashion forward, unique alternative to the standard fresh flower bouquets. They soon realized there were no other choices available that satisfied their couture design sensibilities. They became intrigued by the idea of arranging high quality feathers, preserved floral, luxurious ribbon and a bit of sparkle into the most fabulous of bouquets!
