The best designs go beyond beauty — they evoke emotion, set the mood, and tell a story.
• Each bouquet, arch, or installation becomes part of your celebration, creating a space that reflects your celebration and the moments that matter most. •
Hi, I’m Tapaita, but you can call me Pai.
WITH A LOVE FOR ELEGANT FLORALS AND A PASSION FOR THOUGHTFUL DESIGN, I WORK TO HONOR YOUR VISION AND CRAFT A DAY THAT FEELS EFFORTLESSLY COHESIVE AND ENTIRELY PERSONAL.
I GREW UP IN TONGA, SURROUNDED BY THE STUNNING BEAUTY OF THE PACIFIC ISLANDS.
My childhood was filled with fishing trips, collecting seashells, and camping under the stars — those moments taught me to appreciate life’s beauty. That connection to nature influences everything I do, from the way I approach design to the care I put into every detail.
In 2019, I moved to the U.S. to build a better life for my family and follow my dream of becoming a floral designer. After earning certifications in floral and event design, I officially launched my business on Valentine’s Day 2023, which felt like such a perfect day to start helping couples celebrate their love stories.
Since then, I’ve had the joy of designing weddings and events across the Bay Area and beyond. Each one is a chance to combine creativity with elegance and bring my clients’ unique visions to life.
