Palatine Paparazzi: Flourishing on Fresno Street

Over the last three months, the first floor of the Palatine has been shakin things up! On the evening of November 12th, we celebrated the grand reveal of our expansion on level one.

RSVP and Stems, our local, sister stores specializing in making celebrations memorable and fabulous have expanded into a combined space, featuring many new things adorning both your life and your home!

As you peruse through the photos of our new retail destination, you will find small touches of everything from new, seasonal silk accent pieces - in addition to our daily fresh plants, orchids & flower arrangements; gifts of gourmet sweet treats; occasional pieces of furniture and decorative home pieces to fine china and daily dishware, which is available for bridal & gift registry.

Don't let the photos tell the full story! Come in today to escape from your daily routine & retreat to our luxurious & relaxing shopping experience at the Palatine Building on the NorthWest corner of Fresno & Alluvial.




While Stems is known for delivering beautiful, fresh flower arrangements and offering distinct event design & coordination services - what many people do not know is that we also offer full design service for both home & office.  Our team will come on-site and analyze how we can enhance your living and work spaces.  Our services span from creating statement entry silk pieces or occasional furniture accents, to a custom framed family memory wall - our products and design services bring an element of beauty that all can enjoy!!






This photo doesn't fully reveal the treasures in the cubes - but each section is filled with fabulous gifting ideas, perfect for that special teacher's gift, or a thoughtful hostess gift.
From seasonal & fragrant candles to pairings of sweet treats & festive dishes - our staple & new collections offer something for everyone!
