About First Time's the Charm

First Time's the Charm

We are two best friends, Sophie and Lauren, who turned our shared love of flowers into a true passion project! What started as creative fun has grown into a business rooted in trust, collaboration, and thoughtful design. We specialize in florals that feel joyful, personal, and inspired by nature. Once you decide to work with us, the planning shifts fully off your shoulders and onto ours. Our goal is to be the easiest and most supportive vendor you work with, while creating designs that feel impactful and true to you. We can’t wait to meet you! We love hearing your ideas and collaborating together to find the perfect fit for your day!

We are fun, flexible, and genuinely excited about what we do! As a newer studio in the wedding industry, we bring fresh ideas, open minds, and a deep love for learning and growing with every couple. We thrive on collaboration, creative problem solving, and saying YES whenever we can. We take the time to truly listen, build trust, and support you throughout the process. Our couples often say they feel calm, heard, and confident knowing we are fully invested in their vision. And fair warning, we may shed a few happy tears. By wedding day, you are part of our chosen family!

    Lauren & Soph are gems - personable & kind. My husband and I felt seen and heard from the start. Their attention to detail and care were felt and were so appreciated. Their passion and hard work were evident through our entire experience! Highly appreciated the ability to text with questions and stay in communication throughout the process. Communication was always prompt. Notably, they created a slide deck that aligned with our 'Vision Board,' which was incredibly helpful to visualize the end product and how it would all tie together for our event. The two visited our Suite the morning of our wedding with a sweet card, kind words, and the most thoughtful gift. We've made friends with Lauren & Sophie - grateful for the opportunity to work with them and would highly recommend to others!

    I was a bridesmaid in a wedding done by Lauren and Sophie of First Time's a Charm. The bouquets, arrangements and other accent flowers were simply stunning. I have also seen photos from many weddings they have done the florals for, and they are a very talented duo! If you're looking for a local wedding florist in Midcoast Maine, look no further.

  • We love working with First Time's the Charm!

    As caterers, we have worked several weddings over the past few years with First Time's the Charm and absolutely love to see when they are on the vendor list! Their work is stunning, they are so creative and fun, have great energy and are hardworking. We are lucky enough to be booked with them again this summer!! 10/10 recommend.
