I cannot say enough fantastic things about Holly. I have been working with Holly for the last 4 years and her work is amazing and flawless. Her flowers are always fresh and last all day long. It shows in the pictures. Not only is her work top notch but, her personality is so warm and friendly. She is creative and thinks outside the box. All my brides that have used her cannot say enough good things about her. Her staff is also talented and they are such a nice group of woman to work with. Holly has the best combo..extreme talent, modesty and a great personality. I HIGHLY recommend her.
AWESOME FLORIST! AWESOME PERSON!
Holly is true artist. I wish we could create a museum of her pieces as some arrangements are truly unique. She truly cares about her clients and her heart and soul can be seen in every piece she delivers.
Holly has established a wonderful reputation for creating spectacular flowers. Foxchase Manor and Rose Hill Manor always shine when Holly is doing the flowers. Our clients enjoy her personal service and benefit from her experience and expertise in floral decor.
Look no further if you have landed on Holly Heider Chappel Flowers! Honestly, for as long as I have shot weddings, I have never seen such beautiful designs and colors than I have with Holly's work. She is a woman of integrity and creativity and gentleness. You cannot go wrong in hiring her to make your event a stunning representation of what you dreamed of. Know that your day will be that much more beautiful with her flowers.
As a flower preservationist...we see many, many bouquets. We can identify a Holly Chapple bouquet on sight. Her flowers are unique for their arrangements, weight (due to their freshness), color, quality of the ribbon, if ribbon is used, and sheer beauty. We were able to preserve (beautifully, I might add) a two week old bouquet done by Holly! We love the huge grin on the client's face when we ask, "Is this a Holly bouquet?" You know this is a pampered client....Perfection at it's best.
Holly is by far the best wedding florist I've worked with. Her work is incredible. I recently had my wedding and the only person that came to mind was Holly because of the incredible work that she does. We had a hard time matching the right purple to the flowers in season for my wedding but Holly nailed it. Her flowers are always the freshest, her designs are inspiring and I am always excited to perform at an event where I get to admire her work.
I cannot say enough good things about Holly. I met Holly when I started my business five years ago. I actually tracked her down after working an event with a caterer. Since then, we have worked together dozens of times and her innovation, talent, and product quality exceed expectations every time. Holly will give you the most beautiful flowers and arrangements for your wedding and you'll enjoy working with her along the way.
Holly's florals area always creative and beautiful. I love working with her and her team because I know the decor is going to be outstanding. She is highly personable and professional. I would recommend her to any couple looking for gorgeous, imaginative flowers with great customer service.
Nothing we have seen compares to Holly's work as a designer. She has the eye and the heart that is needed to bring creations to life! We as well as many others simply adore her passion, love, and dedication to what she brings to the industry with her floral designs!

Breakdown, Delivery, Setup
 
What type of decor (if any) do you offer?
Many of my events are very elaborate, which means that often the centerpieces are elevated. In elevated containers we have 3 different styles of glass, a lovely gold finished stand that is 27 inches high, a silver stand that is 27 inches high and is slightly contemporary, and a brown iron stand that allows for hanging votives from base of stand this piece is 26 inches tall. I have several sets of columns and urns and work with my favorite rental companies for trellises and arbors.
 
Do you provide non-floral additions to floral arrangements?
To add extra flare to a bouquet or a arrangement we have added, jewels,feathers,different varieties of moss,lichen, nests, birds,butterflies,bees,dried pods,shells,lights,stones,glass beads,wire in different colors and sizes. In truth the possibilities are endless.
 
Do you offer full-services, such as wedding day setup, for an additional fee?
Yes we have a delivery and set up fee to cover labor that day. That fee is 10 percent of the total sale or a minimum of $150.00. Clients are welcome to pick up the flowers to avoid the fee.
 
Di you have not worked at the ceremony or reception sites previously, would you be willing to visit the sites before the event?
If the client needs and wants my vision of the venue for decorating ideas, I would insist on a site survey. However when clients are on a budget and can only afford the basics it is best if I don't tempt them with designs they can not have.
 
Do you offer flower preservation services?
No. I have a favorite preservationist I use and refer. Her name is Waterford Past Thymes.
 
Do you offer any other specializations that have not been covered?
As designers we are capable of so many things not yet even imagined. I have multiple vendors I work with for plant rentals,pipe and drape,lighting. In a addition to those resources I have years worth of knowledge about the overall flow and look of a event. I know the best vendors and venues in the Washington area. During a consultation with a bride I always advise or refer on how to make the day perfect.

Tips and Advice
 When brides come to meet with me I ask that they take sometime to go through magazines and books and mark the ones they love as well as the ones they hate. This gives me a huge indication of there style.  If brides can not find pictures, they are not to worry I have 8 portfolios at my studio,and over  4,000 pictures stored in my computer.  If the bride has chosen, dresses,colors and linens it is important to bring that information along as well. Even party favors can send my mind off on a clever idea. I think it is also important to discuss budgets, I hate to come up with elaborate ideas that people cant afford to have. Its like taking candy from a baby. If I know you are on a budget I will show pieces that are beautiful, mouth watering but not out of reach.
