Mathes & Co. Events
4235 W. Lovers Ln., University Park
Katherine Mathes is a Dallas favorite because of her turnkey approach to event planning—she handles everything from event design, to marketing and invitations, to coordination, to flowers for everything from dinner parties to huge corporate galas. She’s got a big team backing her up, too, so she’s a great resource when you’re trying to pull off something particularly ambitious.
Cebolla Fine Flowers
4415 Lovers Ln., University Park
Cebolla Fine Flowers is owned by couple and business partners Luit and Jamie Huizenga, who have been running the business since shortly after Luit emigrated from Holland in the '80s. Their state-of-the-art warehouse (where they also live with their daughter) is equipped with geothermal heating, which keeps the countless orchid plants healthy year-round. In the summer months, they actually offer monarch butterfly chrysalises, which eventually hatch and fly away. If you can't make it to their shop on Lover's Lane, they deliver to almost every neighborhood in the city.
