Canaan Marshall is the next-door floral designer of your dreams. An old soul, he has had a natural knack for all things growing and green since childhood. Today, he is best known as the vibrant, young fellow who will turn the everyday into elegant.

Canaan's energy is infectious. He makes you want to dance and celebrate each occasion as if it were your last. That spirit of celebration is evident in EVERYTHING he touches. Perhaps just as notable is the seemingly effortless way he creates and very often makes his fans feel as though they too could create something just as wonderful.

He's designed sophisticated events and thoughtful arrangements from Macon to Atlanta and beyond. Many clients have been known to cheat on their mainstay florist for his gorgeous tablescapes, over-the-top mantels, and breathtaking bridal bouquets. Now, you too can be impressed by both his talent and personality!

Canaan is a contestant on season two of Full Bloom on HBO Max and his work has also been recognized in Southern Living, Modern Luxury, Flower Magazine, Traditional Home, and Macon Magazine.

Marshall says "Choose flowers you like; put some love into the preparation, and have fun!" Join us for a festive luncheon full of FUN, flair, and flowers to support educational programs at Lauritzen Gardens.

You can still support the event by purchasing raffle tickets:
