Meet Chanelle

Chanelle Sidla, the owner and designer of Long Way Floral, has been an entrepreneur since she was 15, running a business full time, helping figure skaters achieve their potential in competitive figure skating. Four years ago, she accidentally fell in love with floristry and found herself in the world of wedding florals shortly after that. She has intentionally refined her skills, since then, and built Long Way Floral into a successful floral company. Simply put, every day has been a pursuit of growth and creativity for Chanelle.

Chanelle is known not only for her boundless passion for the art of floral design, but for her unwavering client-focused approach in designing for weddings, events, and everyday arrangements. 

When she’s not in her floral studio, she is spending time with her husband, hiking in northern Minnesota, trying a new craft, working on house projects, freelancing for other florists, or hunting for allocated bourbon.
