It was an an absolute pleasure to work with Sarah! She is both talented and professional. The arrangements she created for my daughters wedding were magnificent. The flowers were of the finest quality, and the arrangements were works of art! Everything was delivered exactly as promised. Sarah was extremely helpful during our consultations. She offered her own creative twist to my daughters ideas, and patiently discussed each and every flower considered. Her attention to detail and her perfectionism resulted in the most breathtaking arrangements! We were absolutely thrilled, and received many compliments from our guests.
Thank you Sarah! We look forward to working with you again!

Engaging Floral Designs provided the flowers for our wedding day. They were absolutely beautiful. They fit our rustic/elegant vineyard theme perfectly. We couldn't have dreamed of anything more. And working with Sarah was an absolute pleasure. She is a true professional and very talented. I would highly recommend her company to any future bride.

We hired Sarah as the florist and day-of coordinator for our wedding. My mom and I were designing and hand-making almost every little detail, so we really wanted the flowers to match our vision. As we planned the wedding we made a few changes to the color palette and budget and Sarah worked with us through them. She is very detail-oriented and reliable, which meant I did not have to sweat the small stuff on my big day. In the end, all of the flowers - from the altar, to the favor table - were beautiful. The table centerpieces were especially gorgeous, we got many compliments on those. After our wedding my maid of honor decided to hire Sarah for her wedding as well. We all need a Sarah on our wedding day!

So glad I chose NY Engagements, LLC & Engaging Floral Designs for my Wedding!! Sarah did a wonderful job. She was always quick to respond to my emails and made everything so easy. I'm not a flower person so I brought in pictures from magazines that I liked and Sarah took it from there!

Everything was just perfect. I absolutely LOVED the centerpiece! I wanted something a bit different so Sarah created a beautiful tree branch with orchids strung on with hanging votives. I received SO many compliments on the centerpieces. Wonderful job!!

Sarah and her team at NY Engagements were beyond wonderful to work with. They were the best investment we made for our wedding day. My husband and I worked with NY Engagements for day-of planning which I highly recommend to any bride! Sarah is extremely professional, organized and knows her stuff! She has a calming presence which helps in high times of stress. I cannot emphasize enough what a relief it was to know we were working with such a professional team. I knew I didn't have to worry about issues that would come up on the day of. They took care to make sure things ran smoothly. They were a delight to work with and I am extremely grateful to them for making our day perfect!! :)

Sarah and her team did a wonderful job on my wedding day! I was relax and enjoying my day without worrying about where is everyone or paying all the vendors. Sarah and her team gave out all the money enevoples to the vendors so I didn't have to worry about that, all I had to do is enjoyed my day with friends and family! Sarah and her team works wonderful with any catering hall.
Thank you soo much Sarah and her team!! Lena and Jeff Ramirez

Sarah did such an incredible job on our wedding day flowers. She took my crazy ideas and nailed it! Our centerpieces were out of this world and people couldn't stop talking about them! My bridal bouquet was exactly what I envisioned. I would recommend hiring Sarah, she was so professional and just a dream to work with. From the endless detailed emails and phone calls to personally constructing and delivering our flowers on the day of, we couldn't have asked for more. Great company :)

Sarah Lusardi is nothing less than AMAZING!! My flowers were gorgeous! They weren't typical everyday flowers they were flowers you rarely see which I loved!!! She is very understanding and goes above and beyond for brides. You can tell she truely LOVES what she does and is great at it. I can't say enough great things about her and her work!

Sarah was our DOC for our wedding in October and we couldn't have been happier with everything she helped out with (and there was a LOT). She started 3 weeks before the wedding, and as an attorney working on an out of state trial, I couldn't have needed her more right then! She coordinated with vendors seamlessly, kept me in the loop on everything critical and gently reminded me of a million things I never would have even thought of-- all of which made the Big Day truly amazing and stress-free. Having Sarah on site the day of our wedding meant that not only bride and groom, but also family and our bridal party, could focus on enjoying the festivities without distraction or headache. I'm sure there were many things Sarah handled gracefully that I'm not even aware of- the sign of a true professional. Family, friends and our vendors raved about her (she's so down to earth and friendly, she's just like one of the group!). I recommend Sarah and NY Engagements to anyone with an upcoming wedding to ensure that your day is just how you hoped it would be and memorable for all of the right reasons!

Let me begin this review by admitting I’m completely clueless and relatively unimpressed with flowers. But when planning my wedding I knew I definitely “needed” (and wanted) the obligatory bouquets and centerpieces. And as a total perfectionist who planned most every single detail of my wedding myself, I knew I needed to find the right florist- another perfectionist whose professionalism and pride in their work would ensure I had beautiful floral arrangements, even without specific instructions and expectations outlined in detail. I also knew I needed someone who could respond quickly and thoroughly to all inquiries. Sarah fit the bill! I gave Sarah some pretty general ideas and style preferences with a relatively strict budget. She was very respectful of my budget and completely understood the style and look I was aiming for. I was not disappointed in the slightest on our wedding day! All of our bouquets looked so fresh and beautiful- the pictures are really stunning. The ceremony space (outside in the fall) looked lovely and for a very reasonable price. And our centerpieces were beautiful- exactly what I had in mind. I received so many compliments on those and a girlfriend who took one home told me her home smelled wonderful for a week! I really could not have been happier with Sarah’s services and am so grateful we entrusted her with our wedding floral arrangements!

Sarah Lusardi was one of the best things that could have happened to me on my wedding day. I could not have done my wedding without her or her services! Not only were my vendors impressed with her, but my entire family commented on what a kind, professional and awesome day-of coordinator I had. She planned with me up until the event, letting me email her at all hours and she was nothing but patient and responsive. We covered all the aspects of the wedding, and the day of was so smooth I actually had a blast at my own wedding. I was not stressed out at all because I trusted her and knew she would handle everything and all the bumps that could possibly happen. She is worth SO MUCH MORE THAN SHE CHARGES. I cannot say enough about how pleased I was. I hired her TEN DAYS before my wedding because I was freaking out about doing everything on my own. She was so calm as soon as I called her, and she took care of everything. I truly would have been a disaster without her. ALSO, she listened to exactly what I wanted and was not bossy or intrusive, but got the job done in a professional and kind manner that made everyone happy. I LOVE THIS WOMAN! She is the wedding fairy...if you are getting married, give yourself this gift!

We used NY Engagements/Engaging florals for my daughters wedding in July 2010. Sarah Lusardi provided the invitations and flowers. When I first met Sarah I was very frustrated trying to decide on a florist. I sat down with Sarah and within 5 minutes I knew I had found the right person! She is very creative and was able to present a plan to me right then and there that I loved and was within my budget. The flowers were absolutely beautiful at the wedding and I received many compliments from my guests. She also helped me with the invitations and wording. She was very knowledgable about ettiquette and was able to advise me through out the entire process. I will definitely use Sarah again when my other daughter gets married. She was without a doubt the best vendor I used!

Sarah and the team at Engaging Floral Designs did a beautiful job with our wedding flowers, and I would highly recommend her services to other brides. Sarah was very patient and worked closely with us to hone in on a vision for our flowers. Sarah really maximized our modest floral budget, and on the day of, we so happy to see how beautiful and bountiful our flowers looked. You should have seen our chuppah! Working with Sarah was a delight: Sarah was always professional, very prompt, and highly organized.

My bouquet was absolutely amazing! I received so many comments on how unique and beautiful they were. It was just what I envisioned. The centerpieces were elegant, unique and made the room sparkle.

Sarah did an AMAZING job on our flowers. They were absolutely beautiful and we could not have been happier. We also used Sarah's day-of-planning services and she was terrific! So organized and responsive. Thank you so much, Sarah!

STRONG RECOMMENDATION FROM RECENT "MOTHER OF THE BRIDE" (MOB)

We first met and spoke with Sarah Lusardi of NY Engagements about 10 months prior to the June 5, 2010 wedding. After my daughter's research and follow up with Sarah's references, we decided to contract with Sarah for the flowers and for her help 3 weeks prior to the wedding.

This was one of the best and wisest decisions we made for the wedding!! As the "Mother of the Bride" ( MOB), I strongly suggest and recommend contracting NY ENGAGEMENTS owned and lead by Sarah for your wedding or other special event! IT WILL BE YOUR BEST INVESTMENT AND YOU WILL GET 100%+ RETURN FOR YOUR MONEY!

I work full-time and so does my daughter (& she was getting her MA degree this past yr also)/ We knew that we'd need help with all the details towards the final weeks before and especially "the big day".

Sarah is a true professional! She was always responsive, a great listener and follows through. Her calm, low key style along with her excellent attention to detail and fantastic organization skills help make the hectic months and especially the days before the wedding more manageable and enjoyable.


Here are two great examples to validate hiring Sarah:

1-On the afternoon right at rehearsal,( eve before the Sat wedding) we noted that caterer/vendor set up tents in the wrong place at our wedding site. My daughter and her fiance were upset and tried to reach this caterer to get this changed in time for the wedding the next day. We had the rehesarsal dinner and cocktail reception immediately after the rehearsal. We had no time to deal with the caterer/vendor to rectify this error.

Sarah was with us coordinating the rehearsal (& She did a great job!) immediately took action and told us she'd take care of this. And she did. By the time we returned late that evening after the rehearsal dinner, Sarah had spoken with the caterer/vendor and everything was corrected and tents were where we had wanted!
If we did not have Sarah, MOB, Father of the Bride, my daughter and fiance would not have been able to enjoy the rehearsal dinner and cocktail reception.


2 - Sarah was fantastic the day of the wedding. She was there when we needed her and she took the initiative to anticipate your needs. Into the later part of the reception, I had no idea that the liquor was running low. I found out the next day that Sarah resolved the problem without any disruption. I learned that she had contacted a local vendor for the additional liquor we needed and everything went on without missing a beat and no one noticed a thing. Everyone was happy and having fun enjoying themselves.

Thanks to Sarah and her team, our daughter's wedding was a real celebration for all especially for MOB (& Father of the Bride, Bride and Groom) because we were able to step back a bit and truly enjoy this special time!
