Darin BahlOwner/Creative DirectorTailored Twig

Darin Bahl is more than a wedding florist; he is the visionary behind the Tailored Twig brand. Sought after by clients and planners alike, Darin has become known for his unique approach to bespoke event design. Introduced to the hospitality industry as a young boy, Darin began his journey of developing the art of ‘honoring the guest’, a mantra that is the solid foundation on which he has built his career. This voyage has taken him to all corners of the globe and given him a lifetime of experiences from which he continues to draw inspiration. From customized dinner parties to curated welcoming packages for house guests, the thoughtful nature of his handwritten, hand-picked, guest-centered components set Darin apart from the rest. From an exquisitely personal wedding at an exclusive estate on Maroma Beach, Mexico, to an elegant union in the French Alps, the driving force behind Darin’s enthusiasm consistently comes back to the privilege and responsibility of honoring his treasured guests.
