How it started

My name is Emily! I started Emmy Lucy Co. when I was in college, doing the occasional commission here and there.

I went to college for Elementary education/Special education. I taught for two years, but ultimately decided to pursue my business full-time July of 2023. After that, I worked through my Etsy shop, took part in local markets, and poured into my business. August 2024, I was able to open my own website! I view this as truly such a blessing from God. I’m so grateful that this is my full-time job, and that I get to make brides happy! Thank you so much for your support!

I can pinpoint when I started loving to paint. It was second grade art class, painting Claude Monet’s Cliff Walk at Pourville…I realized I kind of liked this! I really started painting as a hobby in high school, when I was about 15 years old or so. I would paint in my free time on the floor of my bedroom! I started dabbling with watercolor (my preferred medium now), but back then, I much preferred acrylics until I was able to practice with watercolors consistently. I am currently 26 years old, so it has been 11 years of working and experimenting with watercolor that has gotten me here!

I am not the only artist out there who paints wedding bouquets, and I certainly don’t claim the idea as mine! But I am proud to say, I feel like I have found my own unique style in what I do. I am proud to offer this service as a way to preserve your bouquet. I genuinely love and am so grateful that this is my job, and that ultimately I can make brides happy! It brings me so much joy.
