After years of working in restaurants along with creating delicious and stunning cakes as a Partner and Lead Decorator Buttercream Bakeshop - there’s nothing more that we enjoy than reviewing all the special details that brought together a spectacular day. It is with this experiential lens we sought to create a space to transport our guests.
About Quince
A venue and Floral destination
DAN & ALEX
Whether a few little bites with game night or a big holiday feast - we love nothing more than a good party. We wanted our guests to be welcomed into their own country escape for the day - to enjoy the fresh air and scents of flowers and forest - their own personal secret garden for their special day!
-Maria Cecila Darling Young
"Quality and beauty and dedication to sustainable growing methods - alongside incredible communication during a very tough, very busy year - only speak to just a few of the perks of working with QBR."
