Cornelia McNamara Flowers

Whether it be a classic wedding or a rap icon's birthday party, a cultural glamor 1,000 or a dramatic product launch, Cornelia’s remarkable stamp on any event is met with uniform delight. Her clientele rely upon her insider’s knowledge, experience, discretion and effortless talent. What began as a floral design studio has now naturally evolved into a full-scale event design studio, with a team of artists working on: - Original printed materials - Custom graphic design for invitations, T-shirts, escort cards, including such original projects as newspapers as wedding programs with content tailored to a couple’s history. - Site specific installations for corporate branding and private social events - A 75ft floral mobile installation including oversized handmade flowers spinning in rhythm above a dance floor. - Ambient video art projected onto 7ft branded balloons suspended overhead throughout an event space. - Environments for experiential marketing - A Michigan avenue pop-up shop featuring 20 ft. long artistic tapestries and window treatments made entirely of popcorn. Working in Chicago has allowed the company to expand not only creatively but consciously as well, with an organic micro-farm just outside the city where Cornelia harvests by hand the freshest, most exquisite flowers (with the smallest carbon footprint). She is also a working member of a The Chicago Honey Co-op, an urban bee farm.
