Why Betty & Olive
Named for the women
who taught us to bloom
This photograph of our grandmother's wedding day shows her essence - beauty, elegance, and style. Rich velvet dresses and dramatic hats were almost overshadowed by the bouquets overflowing with gorgeous roses.
Our grandmother, Betty, was elegant and refined, and did everything right. Olive had a quick wit and huge blue eyes that sparkled with mischief and warmth.
This business, run by sisters, is in honor of both of these women who were like sisters and made an indelible imprint on our hearts. Our florals aim to incorporate their defining qualities: elegance, beauty, refinement, boldness, and a sly little sparkle.
"We've always wanted to work on something together and finally realized the most obvious answer - work with what we love to create beautiful flower arrangements."
Based on the Seacoast of New Hampshire and serving the North Shore of Massachusetts, we grow and source locally, arrange by hand, and deliver the kind of bouquet that makes someone stop in the doorway and just smile.
