My love of the floral industry began over a decade ago while working
with my friends Debra and Dejuan Stroud of Dejuan Stroud Inc.
where I was involved in every aspect of event planning and floral design. After co-ownership of Duffy-Kiely I have been, for four years, the delighted sole proprietress of Katydid.
Our team of graphic artists, lighting specialists, seamstresses, carpenters, day of assistants and designers are all accomplished in their areas of expertise and share my passion for the creation of beautiful environments and flowers. Also available to you through Katydid is the most fabulous selection of rental linens, furniture, props, and dining accessories available on the East coast.
I book my time carefully and place an emphasis on our relationship to
create an event unique to each client. I have chosen wedding gowns with motherless brides. Matched up ink colors to rose petals. Worked miracles with budgets. Lent my favorite jewelry to the bride. You will feel that dedication and warmth from our first consultation to the delivery of the personal flowers on your wedding day.
Katydid is the house florist for Tiffany & Co. Red Bank, Bonnet Island Estate and Mallard Island Yacht Club and I am honored to be the personal florist for many of our state's most beloved celebrities.
Come visit the 1700 sq ft Katydid studio located in the hippest town in
New Jersey and let the design of your floral love story begin......

Dear Kate,
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the gorgeous flowers you designed for our wedding. I truly felt
your presence and warm spirit throughout the entire room. Not only are you exceptionally talented, but you
are kind and generous as well. Thank you for all the extra time and effort you spent with my mother and me
to ensure my day was perfect. Your vision and execution was beyond my wildest dreams.
Love,
J.
Dearest Kate,
Our wedding celebration was beautiful and we have you alone to thank. From the gorgeous pink bouquets
and centerpieces to the hot pink cushions...every detail was perfect. Best of all I never once worried about
the flowers...I knew I was in the best hands and waited with great expectations to see your vision unfold.
We were blown away. Much love and deep thanks,
E.
Thank you, dear Katie, for making our event so special. May God continue to bless the work of your hands.
Much love,
S.

for our day!

Dear Kate,
I remember the first time we met at your studio when we talked and talked. And I remember the day that
you told me that I could plan all I want, but at some point I would have to trust and "jump off the cliff." I think
I blanched at the thought, but as luck would have it, I found you and jumped willingly and gladly. Everything
you did was absolutely perfect. You took jumbled ideas and brought them to coherent fruition. Working with
you has been a pleasure and having you as a new friend – even better. Jumping off cliffs is not that hard
when you have someone special to do it with.
Love,
D.
