Our Story
Il Fiorista is the first hospitality project by Italian husband and wife Alessandra & Mario De Benedetti, who are pursuing their shared passion for flowers, hospitality and design. Since childhood, the pair have been instilled with the importance of flowers, not just for the beauty they bring to daily life, but also for their environmental, health and taste benefits. Now, with New York City as their home base, they look to share and expand this knowledge.
