Rooted in the North
At Hilltop House Farm, we are a boutique flower farm and floral design studio rooted in the rolling hills of Petoskey, Michigan. We believe the best way to celebrate life’s big moments is with flowers that grow right alongside them. From our fields to your wedding aisle or kitchen table, we bring the wild, seasonal beauty of Northern Michigan to every arrangement we craft.
We specialize in sustainable, field-to-vase design for weddings, special events, and everyday celebrations. Whether you’re dreaming of a lush, "Grown, Not Flown" wedding aesthetic or need a thoughtful bouquet to brighten someone’s day, we’re here to guide you. From selecting the perfect seasonal peonies to designing custom centerpieces, let’s make your floral dreams a reality.

Featured Packages
Celebrate your love with the natural elegance of the Great Lakes State. Our Petal Perfect Package is designed for the couple who appreciates the "unfussy" beauty of nature. We skip the stiff, over-engineered arrangements in favor of flowers that look like they belong in the landscape of a Northern Michigan summer.
What’s Included?
This package provides the essential "floral heartbeat" of your ceremony. While every wedding is unique, a typical $750 Petal Perfect set includes:
1 Luxe Bridal Bouquet: The showstopper, featuring the best of the season.
2–3 Bridesmaid Bouquets: Complementary, smaller versions of the lead.
4–6 Boutonnieres & Corsages: For the groom, wedding party, and parents.
A "Cloud" of Loose Stems: Perfect for bud vases or flat-lay photography.
The Seasonal Edit: Grown, Not Flown
We believe flowers should tell a story of time and place. While we can supplement with curated partner blooms to ensure year-round abundance, our heart belongs to the Northern Michigan soil. This package prioritizes blooms harvested from our farm, capturing the fleeting beauty of the Great Lakes seasons.
The Ingredients: Nature sets the menu. Depending on your date, your arrangements may feature pillowy Peonies, fragrant Lilacs, sun-drenched Dahlias, or delicate Queen Anne’s Lace.
The Craft: We honor the earth through sustainable design. By utilizing foam-free techniques, we ensure your flowers remain vibrant, intentional, and eco-friendly.
For the couple who desires more than just the essentials, the Little Traverse Collection is an invitation to abundance. Named after the sweeping beauty of the bay, this package is designed to feel curated, intentional, and lush. It embodies the transition from simple accents to a full, immersive floral experience, bringing the untamed romance of Northern Michigan directly into your celebration.
What’s Included?
The Little Traverse Collection doubles the floral impact, providing a cohesive "bloom-to-bottle" aesthetic for both your ceremony and your reception. A typical $1,500 collection includes:
1 Signature Luxe Bridal Bouquet: An oversized, hand-tied masterpiece with premium focal blooms and trailing textures.
4–5 Bridesmaid Bouquets: Lush, garden-style arrangements that create a stunning visual rhythm for your wedding party.
8–10 Boutonnieres & Corsages: Expanded coverage for the entire family and honored guests.
The Bud Vase Gallery: 25–30 curated bud vases, pre-arranged and ready to scatter across your cocktail tables or reception rounds.
Statement "Ground Meadow" or Focal Install: A versatile floral nest or a pair of large-scale arrangements to anchor your altar or sweetheart table.
Curated Abundance
While the Petal Perfect package focuses on the essentials, the Little Traverse Collection dives deeper into the artistry of local flora.
The Ingredients: We prioritize "premium" seasonal stars. Think double-petaled Tulips, architectural Foxglove, heirloom Garden Roses, and whimsical Sweet Peas.
The Palette: We move beyond "in-season" to "color-curated." We work closely with you to ensure the local harvest aligns perfectly with your specific wedding mood board.
The Craft: This collection utilizes more complex design layering. We incorporate locally foraged greens and delicate vines to give your arrangements movement, depth, and that "plucked from a Victorian garden" soul.
Elevated Experiences
A Full Sensory Story: By increasing the volume of stems, we ensure your wedding is infused with the scent of the North—the peppery spice of Stock or the honey-sweetness of Lilacs.
Seamless Transition: This package is designed for transformation. The "Ground Meadow" pieces can be moved from the aisle to the front of the bandstand, ensuring your investment works hard from the first kiss to the last dance.
The Curated Detail: Every stem is placed with a photographer’s eye. From the way a single Ranunculus "dances" above the rest to the inclusion of rare, local textures, this collection is for the couple who notices—and loves—the details.
Just as the Petoskey stone is a hidden treasure of the Great Lakes—revealing its intricate, fossilized patterns only when polished by the water—The Petoskey Stone Reserve is our most detailed and sophisticated floral offering. This package is designed for the couple who wants their wedding to feel like a rare find: a full-sensory transformation that balances the rugged spirit of the North with the polished elegance of a luxury estate.
What’s Included?
This is our comprehensive "Atmosphere Package." It covers the wedding party, the ceremony architecture, and the reception landscape. A typical $3,500 Petoskey Heirloom set includes:
The "Crowning Jewel" Bridal Bouquet: Our most intricate design, featuring rare focal blooms and the most coveted stems of the harvest week.
6 Luxe Bridesmaid Bouquets: Generous, airy arrangements designed to look like a rolling meadow in motion.
The Shoreline Statement: A custom-built floral arch, two "growing" meadow installations, or a lush floral entrance to welcome your guests.
The Tablescape Narrative: A mix of centerpieces or cascading greenery runners for the head table, plus coordinated arrangements for up to 15 guest tables.
For the hands-on couple, the family-led celebration, or the creative soul, the Shoreline Stem Collection offers the raw ingredients of a Northern Michigan summer. This is our "bulk" option—no ribbons, no pins and no frills. Just farm-fresh, seasonal beauty delivered in its purest form for you to arrange, style, and scatter as you wish.
What’s Included?
This package is designed to fill your space with color and texture without the complexity of full-service floral design. A typical $350 Shoreline set includes:
2 "Designer’s Choice" Buckets of Blooms: A curated mix of focal flowers (like Zinnias, Cosmos, or Snapdragons) and airy "filler" flowers (like Yarrow or Queen Anne’s Lace).
1 "Lush Landscape" Bucket of Greenery: A deep dive into Northern Michigan textures—think raspberry greens, flowing grasses, and fragrant herbs to provide the structure for your arrangements.
The "Stem Count": Each collection typically yields enough material for approximately 15–20 standard bud vases or 5–7 medium Mason jar arrangements.
The "Wild & Untamed" Spirit
This package is for the couple who finds joy in the process.
The Ingredients: Because this is a bulk collection, we provide a "field-run" mix. This means you get exactly what is peaking in the garden the morning of your wedding—the freshest, most vibrant stems available.
The Freedom: Whether you’re hosting a casual backyard "I do" or a rehearsal dinner at a local winery, these stems allow you to decorate everything from the cake to the welcome sign with effortless, local charm.
The Prep: Flowers come "harvest-fresh." You’ll receive them hydrated and conditioned in our signature farm buckets, ready for you to trim and place in your own vessels.
Is This the Right Fit?
The DIY Delight: Best for those who have a "flower crew" (friends or bridesmaids) ready to spend the morning of the wedding crafting personalized arrangements.
The Budget-Friendly Beauty: Get the high-end, local flower quality of our larger packages at a fraction of the cost by providing the labor yourself.
Sustainable & Simple: Like all our packages, these are 100% foam-free and locally grown.
Note: The Shoreline Stem Collection is a "Bucket-to-Beach" service. We provide the stems and the buckets; you provide the vases and the vision! Varieties are strictly seasonal and based on what is blooming most abundantly in the field.
