Modern wedding florals from a Honolulu studio. Sourced local where we can, transparent about it where we can't.
Honolulu Petal Co. is a small wedding-florist studio in Kakaʻako. Two of us — me (Iolana Castro) and my partner Maile. We started the studio in 2019 after years working under one of Honolulu's longest-running florists.
Our aesthetic leans modern: clean lines, restrained palette, statement installations rather than rose-everywhere centerpieces. We source local where we can — orchids from Hawaiʻi Island, ti leaf from windward Oʻahu, the occasional dendrobium grower in Waipahu — and we're transparent when something has to be imported.
We do weddings of all sizes but we're particular about which ones we take. We do a maximum of one wedding per Saturday and two per weekend. That keeps the work consistent.

Iolana and Maile did our downtown Honolulu wedding florals. Modern aesthetic, restrained palette, statement ceremony arch. They were transparent about what was local and what wasn't, which we appreciated. Photographer kept commenting on the centerpieces.

Used Honolulu Petal for our small ceremony — bridal party only package. The bouquet was modern and beautiful, exactly what I asked for. Easy communication, professional studio.
These are starting packages. Most vendors will customize for your date, headcount, and the kind of party you're throwing — ask.
