Our story

The Heart Behind the Blooms

Urban Blooms Minneapolis was founded by Donesha Benson, a Minneapolis native with a vision for flowers that feel like art. As a Black-owned and woman-owned business, Urban Blooms is about more than just arrangements — it’s a movement rooted in culture, creativity, and community.

We specialize in high-end florals for weddings, events, everyday gifting, guided floral design workshops, memorial arrangements and more. Our signature style blends lush blooms, intentional color palettes, and elevated floral storytelling to make every moment unforgettable.

This is floral design with soul — and we’re just getting started.

Our values & mission

We believe flowers are more than decoration — they’re a form of expression. Every design is built with care, storytelling, and celebration in mind.

  • We celebrate diversity and culture

  • We bring intention to every petal

  • We create spaces of beauty and belonging

Whether you’re booking us for your wedding or picking up flowers just because — you’ll always feel seen, celebrated, and cared for.

Let's bloom together!

“From start to finish, working with Donesha was pleasant and stress free. The florals for the wedding were perfect and beyond what we could have imagined.”
