My parents exuded style and love for music. My mother worked and was a full-time mom and wife by day; at night, she designed formal gowns as her creative outlet. Those talents transcended to her daughters. She was the ultimate creative. She let me dress myself and have full creative reign; except for Sundays or major gatherings. My sister designed my Cabbage Patch and Barbie clothes. Creating is nostalgic; It calms my spirit and brings me peace. It has become a way to bond with the community, tell a unique story and spread love. 

Élan House's roots live in its name. "Élan" is synonymous with elegance, urbanity, and finesse that defines floral artist, Shannon Hill. "House" from the family name of her mother and inspirer-in-chief who created fearless and innovative floral, bridal and formal gowns. With a healthy dose of chutzpah in her DNA, Shannon brings fresh thinking and storytelling complemented by her love of color and texture to each one-of-a-kind design. 

Shannon's ideas are sparked by the energy of a bustling city, great music, her career in the PR and digital advertising industry and traveling the world.
