Lee's Flower Shop is a small Washington, D.C.-based retail florist that specializes in floral design for events as well as everyday arrangements. The operation is led by Stacie Lee Banks, who serves as vice president, event specialist, and lead designer, bringing more than 25 years of experience to client projects. Her portfolio includes work for the 2001 Presidential Inauguration Balls, where she collaborated with a national team of florists to create hundreds of centerpieces, and an international wedding in Avignon, France whose designs were later featured in a 2006 issue of Wedding Style Magazine. Banks' professional activities extend beyond the shop's design work. She has held leadership roles with the Teleflora International local unit serving Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Northern Virginia, including a period as president when the unit received the "Most Outstanding Unit" award. She was inducted into the Academy of American Floriculture in 2000 and, in 2007, was appointed to the Consumer Marketing Committee of the Society of American Florists. These affiliations illustrate a depth of professional engagement that complements the shop's capacity to deliver event-focused floral design in the Washington area.
