When Julie Jones of Paris Bouquets traded corporate life for the cobblestone charm of Paris, she wasn’t just seeking beauty, she was reclaiming joy. After surviving a life-threatening kidney disease and receiving a successful transplant, Julie took a brave step toward healing: she moved to Paris for a year to reconnect with herself and her creativity.
That transformative experience now shapes everything she does as a floral artist. “In Paris, I learned to slow down, savor life, and embrace natural beauty,” Julie shares. “Parisians have this effortless elegance that carries over into their florals, it’s never overdone. Flowers should look like you just gathered them from the garden and let them speak for themselves.”
Today, her designs reflect that signature French sensibility: relaxed, organic, and artfully unpolished. Each arrangement
feels like a breath of fresh air, timeless yet modern, luxurious
yet grounded.
With a background designing for high-style brands like Estée Lauder and Roche Bobois, Julie brings a couture mindset to every bouquet. “I always start by visiting the space,” she explains. “I want to understand the client’s personal style, what inspires them. My role is to interpret that and elevate it through flowers.”
Whether for a home, a boutique, or a private event, Julie’s work is rooted in intentionality. She’s passionate about encouraging people to see flowers not just as decoration, but as an essential part of daily life. “In Paris, I made it a mission to buy myself a bouquet every week. It became a ritual, one that lifted my spirit, brightened my space, and reminded me to live in the moment.”
At Paris Bouquets, no two arrangements are the same. Julie avoids dyed or synthetic materials and uses only the highest-grade blooms available. She’s also committed to sustainable design, partnering with the Colorado Green Business Network to find alternatives to traditional floral foam and plastic-based supplies.
Her aesthetic? Natural. Relaxed. Beautiful. Inspired by the Impressionists and Dutch still-life painters, Julie often weaves in fruits, herbs, and unexpected textures, creating floral stories that feel like works of art.
It’s not uncommon for clients to become emotional during the design process. “Flowers evoke memories, places, and emotions,” Julie says. “When we land on the perfect arrangement, it’s not just pretty, it’s personal.”
Julie also reminds clients to consider the experience beyond the arrangement itself. “From the scent that greets you at the door to the color palette that complements your space, flowers can truly transform a room’s energy. They’re not just the finishing touch, they’re the heartbeat of a beautifully styled home.”
For those unsure of where to start, her advice is simple: “Just start. You don’t need to know the names of flowers, you just need to know how you want to feel. That’s where the magic begins.”
From single arrangements to large-scale installations, Julie Jones and Paris Bouquets deliver more than flowers, they deliver beauty, joy, and a little Parisian poetry, one petal at a time. Bring a bouquet of charm into your life at parisbouquets.com.
