In this episode of 2 Fat Guys Talking Flowers, we’re chatting with the one and only Christine Guenther, the energetic, empowering, and ridiculously creative force behind WildFlower | stem + sundry! Known as the Local Flower Dealer and Flower Momma, Christine took her hospitality education and opened not one, not two, but THREE (yep, THREE!) floral and boutique gift shops across Maryland—most recently opening their new location on Valentine's Day. Talk about perfect timing & guts, right?
Christine is here to share the secret sauce behind turning a passion for customer experience into a flourishing business, and how to keep your blooms—and your business—thriving, even through tough times. Spoiler alert: it’s all about following your gut, surrounding yourself with great people, and maybe a little bit of serendipity sprinkled in.
But Christine’s not just about creating beautiful arrangements—she’s out there advocating for florists everywhere. Fresh from her trip to Capitol Hill, she’s giving us the lowdown on Congressional Action Days (CAD), & how she spotted out Edwin. Christine is serving on the Retail Council at SAF, and making sure the world knows florists are serious business.
In thissheisode, Christine shares how her and her partner, Joey created a growing brand, support their community, and keep their customer experience as top priority—all while they started a beautiful family. Plus, get the inside scoop on how WildFlower manages to stay on trend and totally in tune with the next big thing.
