We were extremely pleased with Carol's work for our wedding! Not only was the output beautiful, but she was also a pleasure to work with throughout our wedding planning process.

She went above & beyond in so many ways. When we were trying to figure out our linen color selection, she actually went to our linen vendor and brought a sample of our centerpiece to see how it looked against the various colors. That guidance was so helpful, and we knew we could trust her advice. She also met us for a floral trial (she did not charge us for her time), so we could make sure we were aligned on expectations and make final decisions before the wedding. She was also extremely flexible with us-- our needs changed several times throughout the planning process, and she was always happy to accommodate what we needed.

We felt that Carol genuinely wanted us to have our dream wedding, and she bended over backwards to make sure everything looked perfect (which it did!). This is all coming from a bride who has very high expectations and doesn't like to be disappointed! We couldn't have asked for a better florist!!!

Carol at Design with Flowers was truly amazing. We were on a budget and I had let her know that from the beginning and Carol worked with me. I showed her pictures of ideal flower arrangements along with describing to her the vision I had for flowers which was earthy, modern, romantic, and "clean". The venue we had chosen for our reception was already equipped with gorgeous foliage and I didn't want to take away from that and neither did Carol. I wanted to incorporate calla lillies as the main flowers for my bouquet and the bridesmaids bouquests and they just turned out remarkable. I let Carol pick and design the men's boutineers and I was thoroughly satisfied and impressed with the succulents/jades she chose for them. Carol is so FLEXIBLE, I kept changing my mind and she listened and acknowledged my changes with ease. She is very easy to work with, dependable, and just a true sweet heart. I recommend her services all the way & if I could do it all again, I would go with Design with Flowers with out a doubt!

Carol is exceptionally amazing!
Beside being extremely creative, she was empathetic and receptive to my ideas for my floral design. I had a tight budget and also wanted to test my creative side by designing some of the floral arrangements myself. I changed my designs about 7 times! She was able to work with me to stay within budget and at the same time juggling the constant changes that I wanted to make (and many of them were last-minute!). I don't know how she remained so calm, pleasant and accommodating! She kept me at eased and I was constantly assured that the flowers would look gorgeous on my special day and they were! My guests couldn't stop raving about her work! She definitely went far and beyond and her work was evidence to all.
Carol was definitely one of the most enjoyable persons I worked with during the frantic months of preparing for my big day!
I highly highly recommend her!

Carol was fantastic to work with. My husband and I didn't have super strong opinions about the decor but she was able to take the concepts we showed her from magazines and make them fit our wedding. She was very easy to work with and flexible when we ran late to an appointment (or two). Everything went off without a hitch and I didn't have to think about the flowers or the my chuppah at all on the wedding day.

Carol did outstanding work. Our flowers were beautiful and really fit the mood of our wedding. She listened to us as we described what we wanted and even made up sample bouquets for us to choose from. She was punctual and very flexible in meeting us after our work days. All our guests raved about the flowers, saying they were beautifully arranged, fresh and very tasteful. Carol was a true professional, kind and pleasant to work with. We highly recommend her!

Carol was amazing! She knew EXACTLY what I wanted. I told her that I like flowers that were not "typical wedding flowers", wanted some "Wow" factor and something very elegant and fun at the same time. As the wedding day was closely coming up, I could NOT wait to see what Carol was going to do with the flowers. She had shown me some demos and I just fell in love. She was so flexible and easy going and SUPER CREATIVE!! I'm so glad I picked Carol; it was one huge thing that I did not need to worry about on my Wedding day- only be thrilled to see what she put together. And I got so many compliments on all the flowers, especially my bouquet of huge white cascading orchids. BREATHTAKING! Thanks Carol!

I would strongly recommend Design with Flowers to another couple. Carol was very flexible and easy to work with. My floral choice was changed a couple of times prior to our wedding and she was always very supportive and creative with new ideas.
