My name is Lizzy and I am the owner of Gothic Ties, a Scranton, PA alternative florist. We service all of Eastern Pennsylvania (Jim Thorpe, Philadelphia, Poconos, Harrisburg, Lehigh Valley), New Jersey and we are willing to travel so please do not hesitate to send an inquiry! We specialize in creating alternative weddings for our alternative clients. I created this business because it is the perfect combination of two of my greatest joys in life, love and horror. I love being there for the clients that are just like me and want to add a little bit of drama, romance and authenticity to their weddings. Clients that want to break away from the standard color palettes of most weddings and be authentically themselves.

I have a deep love for having a part in telling your love stories. Ever since I was a little girl I have been in love, with love itself!

When I would get home every day after school I would throw on one of my favorite love stories. Stories like, Practical Magic, Bride Wars, Peter Pan (2003), 10 Things I Hate About You and Romeo + Juliet (young Leo DiCaprio am I right??). The list could go on forever!

Then when I got a little older I fell in love with the horror genre. There is something so beautiful in the dark and mysterious. Horror can take a feeling like, an all consuming love for someone that makes you feel like you would do anything for your person, and implement an element of horror and darkness to make it, in my opinion, so obsessively romantic.

As a woman and LGBTQ+ owned company, I am here for couples of ALL genders, sexualities, races, ethnicities, and religions. I want Gothic Ties to be a safe space to express who you really are as a person and as a couple. Let me help tell your unique story through our alternative designs.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and I hope to work with you in the future!
