Florals
We go beyond the typical “floral packages” because no two weddings are the same - and they shouldn’t be! We want your flowers to speak to you as a couple - your favorite colors, flowers, and those unique special touches that reflect you as a couple. So every wedding design we curate is custom tailored to you.
We use local and seasonal flowers when available, and design in a sustainable manner- reducing floral foam and chemicals, and we can pass those savings and good vibes on to you!
Meet Your Guide
Rachael Kinsey
Rachael Kinsey’s passion for art began as a young child evolving into a career after graduating Art School. Pursuing careers throughout the country in visual merchandising, event + floral design, interior design, and running her own jewelry design business, Rachael Kinsey Designs. After birthing her son Kyuss and going through a divorce she moved back east to raise her son Kyuss to consciously transition into this new stage. This transition led Rachael to further her yoga education at the Asheville Yoga Center in 2016. This sacred and life changing experience lifted the veil to the mystery of life, unlocked through breath work, asana, and sacred rituals where she could safely be held and supported in a nurturing container. She merged together all of her passions and experiences in 2020 when she opened the Crafted Outpost, a brick and Mortar in Wilmington, NC’s Cargo District where she currently hosts mindful events and workshops for adults and children to tap into their own magic through art & yoga with the support of community and the natural world. She curates the shop with handmade products from 40+ local makers who have the same intention in mind - if we take care of Mother Nature and our community, we will thrive.
Words from Those Who Went Before
“
"I will always remember my maiden rite of passage as a defining moment in my life. As a young woman, I was seeking a deeper connection to my own identity and purpose, and the rite of passage offered me the opportunity to explore these questions in a powerful way."
— Sarah E.
“
"Through a series of ceremonies and rituals, I was guided through a process of releasing old patterns and beliefs that no longer served me, and embracing new ways of being that aligned with my true self."
— Eliza H.
