We believe that the world needs more beauty…and that flowers are the answer. We support you in planning, coordinating and executing your dream event every time.

ADAM CHARNACK

Flowers bring joy, universally … even to “numbers” guys like me! As much as it fulfills me to see the beautiful creations Mara and her team create, I am equally satisfied by supporting Mara and her team, so that things with Thoughtfully Curated “just work”.

The more I can take the “dotting i’s” and “crossing t’s” of Thoughtfully Curated off of the creative team, the more energy and love they can devote to crafting their best creations for you and yours.

Charnack lives in Asheville, NC with his wife and lots of vases of always-fresh garden-grown flowers.

MARA BREINDEL

The desire to celebrate beauty, creativity, nature and humanness led Mara to discover her talent and passion for floral design, and then to co-create Thoughtfully Curated. Her background includes a decade managing a corporate multi-million dollar retail business, a decade as an actress, and half-a-decade as a pilates and yoga instructor in Los Angeles, CA. Mara is European trained, studying at the Tallulah Rose Flower School, specializing in “British-garden-style-design”. Mara is grateful to now be fulfilling her purpose of bringing beauty and joy into the world. When she isn’t designing in her Charlotte Street design studio or spread-sheeting an event, you can find her traveling with her husband, or drinking PG Tips brand tea with her tail-less cat.
