Samantha Bates AIFD CFD CF
Samantha Bates AIFD CFD CF is an award winning and nationally accredited designer. "I am passionate about art and have been an avid artist my entire life. After studying painting, drawing, printmaking, and ceramics in college I found my home in floristry. Since then I have taken different aspects of my previous art outlets and channeled them into my floral designs. I love taking traditional arrangements, like a dozen roses, and transforming them into jaw dropping designs. Weddings are my favorite! From the initial consultation to the last dance, I just LOVE taking all the ideas and making them into a reality. I am a licensed florist of Louisiana, Past President of the Louisiana State Florist Association, and a member of the Tangipahoa Professional Women's Organization. In June of 2015, I tested for membership into the American Institute of Floral Designers where I earned the prestigious Certified Floral Designer accreditation and became officially inducted into AIFD July 2016 in Anaheim CA as a fully accredited member. In August of 2017, I was honored to be named Florist Review magazines "Top 35 Under 35" in the United States. In March of 2018 & 2020, I won the coveted Jim Johnson Cup which advanced me to the International Gateway to Americas Cup Invitational in Orlando, where I was one of the US competitors. In 2022, I was the all around 2nd Place winner after competing against 25 competitors from 16 different countries. I placed in 4 out of 5 rounds throughout the competition."About Especially For You Floral
