Meet The Owner & Lead Designer
Founded by Courtney Zuber, Cone Flower Designs is a Texas-based wedding and event floral company rooted in transparency, creativity, and education. With a background in floral design and years of hands-on industry experience, Courtney built Cone Flower Designs around a simple goal: to make beautiful florals feel approachable, honest, and attainable.
At Cone Flower Designs, we believe in sharing the why behind what we do. From breaking down floral costs to walking through behind-the-scenes systems and mechanics, we’re open about every step of the process. What started as a passion for designing naturally grew into a passion for teaching. Today, that looks like digital products, one-on-one Zoom mentorships, and practical resources created for florists and flower lovers who want to grow their skills and build confidence in their craft.
In addition to custom wedding and event florals, Courtney launched a sister company called Simplee Cone. A curated, collection-based floral line offering thoughtfully pre-designed packages. It’s designed to simplify the planning process and provide a more budget-conscious option without sacrificing beauty or quality.
Cone Flower Designs isn’t just about flowers. It’s about education, community, and creating designs that feel personal, intentional, and uniquely you.
Education Resources
The past few years we've really focused on sharing behind the scenes of our life in the floral world and with that a huge push in on the education side. We've created digital products, provided links to our fun gadgets we've found and so much more. Below you'll find the direct links to our Stan Store, Amazon Storefront, Benable and more!
See More Behind The Scenes
We love all things floral, and we genuinely love bringing you along for the ride. On our social media, we share the real behind-the-scenes of our studio life, wedding installs, early mornings, design tips, business education, product finds, and the everyday moments in between. You’ll see what it actually takes to run a floral company, how we build our designs step by step, and the systems that keep everything moving. If you’re here for flowers, entrepreneurship, creativity, or just a peek inside our world, our socials are where we share it all.
Products We Love
We love sharing the fun gadgets and tools that truly make our lives easier. Running out studio takes a lot more than just flowers, and over the years we've found products that help us work smarter, stay organized, and create more efficiently. We genuinely rely on these tools every day, and we hope they can be just as helpful for you. You'll find many of our favorites linked here, and our non-Amazon finds, we use Benable to keep everything in one place.
Digital Products & Coaching Calls
We sell digital products created to inspire, educate, and empower florists and flower lovers at every stage of their journey. Whether you're building your floral business or simply nurturing a passion for beautiful blooms, our resources are crafted to help you grow with confidence. From practical guides and design tutorials to business tools and creative templates, each product is rooted in real-world experience and a genuine love for the floral industry. In addition to our digital offerings, we also provide personalized coaching calls for florists who want tailored guidance, clarity, and actionable strategies to move their business forward.

Like to Know It - LTK
LTK (formerly LIKEtoKNOW.it) is a shopping platform where we share direct links to Courtney's outfits and products we genuinely use and love. While you’ll find Courtney’s outfits linked there, we also use it to share home decor, gift ideas, tools, and other products we’re asked about regularly.
Instagram Subscription
Our Instagram Subscription is where we go deeper. Inside, we share detailed floral recipes with full price breakdowns so you can see exactly how we build, price, and structure our designs.

Subscribers also receive exclusive discounts on our digital products and early access to new releases. If you’re a florist who wants transparency, education, and practical tools you can actually apply to your business, this is where we share it.
