The opening gala for Flower’s 2025 showhouse in Nashville welcomed nearly 500 guests to celebrate the debut of the grand estate. Launching the magazine’s largest showhouse to date, the evening marked the culmination of months of inspired collaboration and craftsmanship. The gala honored the 23 acclaimed interior design firms, seven floral designers, the build team, architect, landscape architect and the showhouse sponsors—each of whom brought the very best of design to Nashville.
