Rentable. Sustainable. Custom Designed for You.
Hello there!
Welcome to borrowed & blüm, where we create custom floral designs that turn weddings, corporate events, and parties into unforgettable experiences.
Using high-quality faux florals, we bring luxury, sustainability, and creativity to every occasion.
Whether you're looking for elegant centerpieces, breathtaking ceremony arches, or statement floral installations, we work with you to tailor the perfect pieces that reflect your style and vision.




As sustainability becomes a top priority, more and more couples are opting for eco-friendly choices when planning their weddings. Artificial flowers offer a greener alternative. Here are a few reasons why we chose to work with faux florals:
Why choose
artificial
flowers?
Eco-Friendly Option
Despite having a lower carbon footprint in production, fresh flowers can contribute significantly to carbon emissions due to their long-distance air travel. If choosing fresh, consider buying from local growers!
Faux flowers produce 93% fewer CO2 emissions during transport and are a greener choice when rented multiple times.
Compared to single-use fresh flowers, our floral rentals cut the carbon footprint by up to 50% per couple compared to single-use fresh flowers, aligning with our commitment to zero-waste and sustainability.
Never Wilts
Unlike fresh flowers, our faux florals won’t wilt or fade—perfect for those hot summer days (we’re looking at you, North Carolina).
They’re built to last, staying vibrant and beautiful throughout your event and beyond. Plus, their durability means they can withstand transportation and handling with minimal wear, ensuring they arrive looking flawless every time.
Always in Season
Say goodbye to seasonal limitations and hello to endless possibilities with faux flowers! These days, many fresh bloom varieties can be found with an identical faux counterpart. The higher the quality, the more the artificial stem looks and feels real.
We curate premium stems from a variety of suppliers in order to offer the highest quality florals in our designs. Many of our artificial stems have been hand-painted by our wholesale artisans. Our "blüms" photograph beautifully and are almost indistinguishable from fresh flowers.
Low-cost Alternative
Cheap usually means inferior quality. We get that many people will have this common misconception towards artificial flowers. Faux florals have come a long way and some of our stems cost up to 10x more than their fresh counterparts!
However, as a rent-and-return service, we are able to reuse each stem for future events and we forward that cost-savings to you.
Your floral investment can be stretched further when you rent with us, so that you can achieve a luxe look at only a fraction of the costs.
