Today’s show highlights the artistry of wedding floral design in the time of COVID. Like every other aspect of the wedding industry, floral designers have had to make considerable adjustments to their normal way of doing things. My guest is rolling with the punches to continue providing beautiful floral creations to accentuate that all-important wedding day.

Kiana Underwood is the founder of Tulipina. She’s the most amazing, artistic floral designer who lends her design artistry to luxury weddings around the world. Before emigrating to the US, Kiana endured war and revolution as a girl in her native Iran. She says none of those difficulties compares to her hardest task, which is raising her three teenagers to be good humans in today’s world.
