Sarah Khan
Sarah Khan as an artist has journeyed from her formal graduate studies as an economist in international trade to the world of floral. With an innate desire to work with her hands, she found her calling in creating beautiful works of art with fresh flowers as the medium. Featured in renowned publications such as Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Washingtonian, Modern Luxury Weddings, and Martha Stewart Weddings to name a few, Khan's work has earned wide recognition for its artistry and innovation. She was a finalist on the hit HBO series Full Bloom, where she showcased her ability to take thoughts and ideas and transform them into an immersive experience.
A passionate educator, Khan has taught for the New York Botanical Gardens and continues to curate courses available through her studio. Her floristry has graced prestigious venues like the Plaza Hotel and Cipriani in New York, various museums including the National Portrait Gallery as well as iconic DC venues, such as the Andrew Mellon Auditorium. Khan believes in creating with intention and letting her intuition guide the process. Trusting oneself is, in her view, the most thrilling and courageous part of the creative journey, which ultimately leads to pieces that are deeply loved and cherished by her wedding and event clients and patrons of the arts. For her, floral design is not only an art form but a lifelong exploration of the definition of beauty and personal growth.
