  Michael’s flowers made our wedding and he is a true artist.

  Michael Akila is a true artist. We had a color pallet and an idea of what we wanted our wedding flowers to look like. Michael transformed our venue into something more magical than we could have imagined. All our guests were commenting on the beautiful flowers. We trusted his vision and could not be happier that we did. His floral arrangements made our wedding.

  We met with Mike on two different occasions. I showed him some photos of bouquets I found with colors we wanted. He pulled some flowers together and designed a beautiful bouquet on the spot. He was flexible and responded to emails quickly. He created 11 tall candelabras and 10 short vases, along with floral for our entrance and cake tables. Every arrangement was beautiful and full of color! It was absolutely breathtaking! Thanks to Mike and team for making our wedding dreams come true!

  My flowers for my wedding were absolutely amazing. Michael and his team did a great job. When I first met with Michael I had an idea of what I liked but wasn't sure how to bring it all together. Michael took my ideas and ran with them - I gave him a few "must haves" and let him run with the rest. I could not have asked for a better experience. My flowers were gorgeous and I even cried when I saw them for the first time. THANK YOU!!

  Michael's work is magnificent. Our flowers are the talk of the town. Everyone loved them and he was able to execute our vision very well. Michael has a heart for the brides he works with and if something was beyond our budget, he was able to find alternatives that still provided the same exact look and elegance that we were searching for. I DEFNITELY RECOMMEND BOOKING THIS FLORIST. He is absolutely professional and a joy to work with.

  Michael was great to work with and he made my vision come true. It was truly gorgeous and he filled every space with gorgeous flowers. He has amazing taste and I was blown away with how beautiful he made the venue with the all the colors of the flowers. He can also help out with linens, which is super helpful. He has impeccable taste and I received so many compliments on his work with the flowers and how pretty everything was. He also is able to work within your budget.

  We had the most beautiful wedding in Austin, TX. Although we had the best vendors, we can't say enough about our exqusite floral arrangements that has transformed the place to a dreamland. We got a lot of best compliments from our guests and family. From the very first appointment, Michael has been very friendly and easy to work with. He knew the Venue so it was easier for him to pick and arrange the flowers that are suitable with the place. He also helped us pick the linens and made our reception tables so beautiful. I highly recommend Floral Renaissance of Austin if you have a wedding or other special event coming up.
  
  Best wishes,

  I am a local Austin wedding and events coordinator. Michael and his staff are one of the best in Austin, and we've used Floral Renaissance multiple times for our clients because him and his team understand that we want quality, designer floral arrangements for a good price. You may spend a little more than you budgeted, but you won't regret it as you always get more with Michael.

  If you are having a wedding at the Vista on Seward Hill, using Floral Renaissance is a no-brainer. Michael does flowers for their events so frequently, and has such frequent communication with the VoSH owners that it made using Floral Renaissance one of the simplest decisions I had to make.
  
  They will also work within your budget and make the appropriate recommendations to get the most bang for your buck.
  
  All of my flowers were just beautiful, and without having providing much oversight, I left in all in Michael's capable hands.

  Michael does beautiful floral work, and was such a nice guy to work with! Our venue owner (Sidonee at The Vista on Seward Hill) recommended Michael as a florist option. We weren't doing floral centerpieces--only bouquets, corsages, and boutonnieres--so Michael worked with our budget and made the overall cost very reasonable.
  
  I think there was some confusion because the day-of, we received the boutonnieres, but no corsages. At that point, we didn't care because we were just excited to get married and it was such a minor detail. So my only suggestion would be to double check with him even after the final check. Again, minor detail, and wasn't a crisis, so we were cool. The flowers were stunning, and I definitely kept some dry ones to put in a shadow box.

  Lies, lies, and more lies from this florist.

  I placed an order, several days in advance of the delivery, gave specific delivery instructions and requested a signature from the recipient. They did not deliver on Friday as requested. Instead, they said that they delivered on Saturday. Not possible as the office was closed—-unless they delivered to the welding shop or janitors because no one else was on the premises. I have now send over 6 emails and left 5 messages requesting that they contact me. They have ignored my requests. I would not recommend this company for any reason. Piss poor customer service and nothing less than a bunch of thieves and crooks. Wayne Eller, British Columbia, Canada

  We originally requested a succulent bouquet for our wedding. We were assured that it was no problem and that we had ordered it in plenty of time. When we arrived to pick up the bouquet, it looked absolutely nothing like what was ordered (see pictures!). When confronted about the bouquet, he said that he was having trouble when making it, so he just added some other things to it instead. He then tried to assure me that it was basically the same bouquet as in the picture. He did not ask me about any of the changes he had made, nor did not accept responsibility for the many differences in my order. I would not recommend this florist to anybody!
