about Flora + Dean
My name is Sal Pavia and I am the founder of Flora + Dean a Boutique Floral Studio. For over a decade I was a professional actor and had the great fortune of touring the nation as a Performer, Director, and Choreographer. When the pandemic hit, my career came to a halt, while simultaneously finding out from my wife Kaitlyn, that I was becoming a dad! In hopes of continuing to contribute to my now growing family, I began selling flower arrangements from my kitchen. Fast forward a few years and floral design has become my focus and future.
Theatre has fostered my love for creativity and has lent itself beautifully to curating stunning events that shares a couple's love story.
Events are very similar to shows. There's hundreds of moving parts behind the scenes that your audience never sees. And similar to the expectation of a director, all any host can wish for is that their guests have an amazing experience and leave with an unforgettable feeling of joy and happiness.
