These Gorgeous Fall Displays Are Taking Over Philly and the Suburbs—Here’s Who’s Behind Them

From Rittenhouse stoops to Main Line estates, front steps across the city are getting a seasonal upgrade. Stacks of heirloom pumpkins and golden hay bales announce the arrival of autumn. What started as a DIY weekend project has become a full-blown design trend—and Enliven Planters is leading the charge.

Since 2014, Enliven Planters has been transforming Philadelphia’s porches and stoops with seasonal displays. This year, the focus is on fall’s most iconic accent: pumpkins.

“Fall has been a part of our DNA since the very beginning,” says Paul Kawoczka, founder of Enliven Planters.

Philadelphia’s Seasonal Experts

Enliven Planters is best known for transforming homes with standout seasonal planters and window box displays. This fall, the team is channeling that same design focus into professional pumpkin styling, offering curated displays that bring the season right to your doorstep.

“The concept is simple,” says Paul Kawoczka, founder of Enliven Planters. “We deliver festive, high-impact pumpkin displays that are effortless for the homeowner and striking from the street.”

Curated Styles, Local Sourcing

Enliven’s displays go far beyond the classic orange jack-o’-lantern. Their designs incorporate heirloom pumpkins in soft greys, sage greens, blush pinks, and creamy whites—a sophisticated autumn palette that brings warmth and abundance to every stoop. By sourcing directly from farmers across Pennsylvania, Enliven curates a level of quality and character you won’t find at big box stores.

“What really sets Enliven apart is our focus,” says Kawoczka. “That laser focus allows us to deliver the highest level of creativity, quality, and service.”

Simple, Flexible Packages

Choosing the right look is easy. Enliven has distilled years of design know-how into four package sizes, each with the option to have their designers style it for you or to create your own DIY arrangement. Cleanup service at the end of the season is also available. All four sizes are photographed side by side on their website for a clear comparison, and if you’re not sure which fits your porch best, you can schedule a quick call with the team for a personalized recommendation.

“[We’re] delivering that big seasonal impact—whether at a front door, porch, or mailbox—while keeping the process easy for busy families who are juggling work, school, and fall activities.”

Kawoczka anticipates packages will sell out by the second week of October so head to enlivenplanters.com/shop to reserve yours today.
