MEET BECCA
the creative behind Black Begonia Florals
Becca is the owner and lead designer of Black Begonia Floral Design, a boutique Rhode Island wedding florist creating refined, artful florals for celebrations across Newport, Providence, and coastal New England.
Her connection to flowers began early, growing up in Richmond, Rhode Island surrounded by gardens filled with peonies, lilacs, hydrangeas, and climbing clematis. Those quiet, formative moments—watching seasons change and beauty unfold naturally—continue to influence her work today.
At fifteen, she discovered floral design almost by accident, enrolling in a class that quickly revealed both a natural instinct and a deep creative pull. Under the guidance of a mentor who recognized her potential, she immersed herself in the craft—assisting with designs, refining her technique, and eventually creating her first wedding at just sixteen.
Her path led her to study Public Relations at the University of Rhode Island and later to New York, where she worked within established floral studios and event companies, gaining experience in luxury floral design and large-scale events. Along the way, she was mentored by talented women who helped shape both her artistic perspective and her vision for building something of her own.
In 2020, Becca returned to Rhode Island and founded Black Begonia Floral Design. What began as a creative leap soon evolved into a sought-after boutique studio. Today, she works closely with each couple from initial concept through installation, taking on a limited number of weddings each season to ensure every design feels deeply considered, cohesive, and personal.
Her work is defined by a balance of romance and intention—florals that feel natural yet elevated, expressive yet refined.
Becca was AMAZING to work with! She is so full of energy and clearly knows her stuff when it comes to different types of flowers and greenery. You can really see the vision come to life in her mind as she's talking to you about what you could do for your event. She was so great and I really enjoyed working with her! I can't thank her enough for all the work she did and how she brought the combination of her and mine's vision to life for my wedding day.

Here at Black Begonia Floral Designs, creativity has always been at the center of my life, but it extends far beyond flowers. I love making and exploring in all forms—painting, writing poetry, listening to music, singing karaoke, or baking and decorating cookies and cupcakes. I thrive in spaces where creativity and fun come together, whether it’s a lively game of billiards or a spontaneous passion project.
In my mid-twenties I built a full luxury campervan myself, learning construction and electrical work along the way so I could travel and explore. Hands-on projects and figuring out how things work—something I definitely picked up from my dad—have always brought me joy. Creating something from start to finish is still one of my favorite experiences.
When I’m not designing flowers, I love spending time outdoors. Snowboarding and ice skating in the winter, roller skating in warmer months, hiking trails, playing disc golf, camping, or relaxing at the beach all help me recharge. Summer trips to Block Island with my brother and winter weekends visiting my parents in Vermont are always highlights.
All of these experiences—music, travel, baking, nature, creativity, and connection—keep me inspired and grounded. They influence the joy, artistry, and attention to detail I bring into every floral design. For me, passion is about embracing what makes life vibrant and bringing that energy into the work I love.
Here at Black Begonia Florals, it is not just my goal to bring my couples romantic wedding flowers but to make the process of selecting their blooms and designing their arrangements fun, memorable, unique, and something they are truly a part of.
I've always been inspired by nature, and the very fact I get to use it to create art still overwhelms me. I'm grateful for being able to design for all occassions. Flowers are a part of some of the happiest and toughest times in our lives and being with my clients throughout those experiences gives my work real meaning and is what motivates me every day.
I'll deliver up to , I will always be there on your wedding day, and I'm in contact throughout the entire process so that you feel like your vision is being implemented.

From the first time I chatted with Becca about our wedding, I knew she understood our vision with the florals and that she was a florist I could trust with bringing this vision to life. Becca was extremely attentive and reliable – whenever I had a random, one-off question, she was there to chat. On the wedding day, Becca went above and beyond. The florals were absolutely beautiful, and my bridal bouquet was everything I wanted and more. She even popped upstairs to the bridal suite to say hello before heading out – which was so nice to finally meet the famous “Becca” in person. If you’re getting married and in need of a florist, don’t hesitate on reaching out to Becca. When you hire vendors for a wedding, you want people you can trust – and Becca is that and so much more.

We'd love to hear from you!

It's hard to pick just one, so a few of my favorite flowers are sweet peas, lilacs, butterfly ranunculus, and my most versatile bloom is the standard ranunculus.
I love a good reveal, seeing my brides get emotional over seeing their flowers for the first time always gets me.
It simple but I love Block Island. Its a mini vacation, right in our backyard, where I can go travel to several times each summer. I love the beaches, the hiking trails, and the restuarants.
The Bridal Bouquet, hands down! I always start with the bridal bouquet, picking the most perfect blooms carefully. I end up spending the most time on this one singular piece, knowing it will be the focus of all my couple's portraits.
It's Summer of course, because I get to practice floral design most and soak up the summer, swim at the beach, and wear my favorite summer dresses.
I've had the opportunity to visit Europe, but didn't spend nearly enough time in Swizterland. I'd also love to vacation in New Zealand to hike.
