For more than a century, Aebersold Florist has helped people celebrate life’s most meaningful moments through flowers. Since opening in 1908, the business has grown into a trusted name throughout Southern Indiana and Greater Louisville, known for its exceptional craftsmanship, personal service, and deep connection to the community.
After remaining family-owned and operated by the Aebersold family for four generations, the business has entered a new chapter under owners Caitlin and Brian Yost. While bringing fresh ideas and thoughtful growth to the company, the Yosts remain committed to honoring everything that has made Aebersold Florist so special for over a century.
Rooted in New Albany
Aebersold Florist’s history is an important part of its identity. Its longtime storefront, located at 1217 Silver Street in New Albany, is more than simply a place to purchase flowers—it represents generations of artistry, relationships, and service.
From inside this local storefront, the Aebersold team continues to create florals for customers throughout Southern Indiana and the Greater Louisville area. Whether someone is planning a wedding, hosting an event, honoring a loved one, celebrating a milestone, or simply brightening another person’s day, every arrangement is created with attention and care.
This community connection has allowed Aebersold Florist to become more than a neighborhood flower shop. It is a local institution that families and businesses have continued to trust during some of life’s most significant moments.

Flowers have the power to completely transform a wedding space, and Aebersold Florist believes every floral design should reflect the couple at the center of the celebration. Their team considers the couple’s love story, venue, wedding season, personal style, priorities, and budget to develop a cohesive floral experience.
Their wedding services can include personal flowers for the couple and wedding party, ceremony arrangements, aisle décor, statement installations, centerpieces, reception flowers, and other custom floral elements.
Rather than focusing on filling every corner with flowers, the Aebersold team encourages couples to identify the areas that will create the greatest impact. By thoughtfully prioritizing a few memorable floral moments, they can help couples achieve that highly anticipated “wow factor” while making the most of their budget.
The designers also embrace seasonal flowers, layered textures, and beautiful color combinations. By remaining open to the blooms that are naturally at their best during each season, couples can receive floral designs that feel fresh, distinctive, and perfectly suited to their wedding day.
