  Easy and Beautiful

  We didn’t have much of a vision for what we wanted for flowers, but with Vince’s experience and expertise he gave us guidance for what would look best and fit well in our venue. He was willing to meet with us and talk whenever we needed. We felt so taken care of and in good hands, while at the same time Vince is so laid-back and easy to work with. He personally delivered our flowers, and stayed for hours to make sure everything was perfect. The flowers were beautiful, and lasted well for our brunch the next morning. All of this, while being at an extremely reasonable price point. Every time our other vendors asked us who was doing flowers, and we told them Forest Woods, the response was always relief because they knew the flowers would be perfect and stress-free.

  Beautiful!

  Vince was amazing to work with!! He was referred to us from our wedding planner. He was easy to work with, quick to respond, and replicated almost all of the visions we had for my daughters wedding. The floral centerpieces were gorgeous and the 3 tier candles we used from him were absolutly stunning. The venue looked amazing!!!! Somehow there was 3 tier candles added to the cake table that were not in the plan but made the cake table look like a masterpiece! The bouquets were beautiful. The week before the wedding we decide to change the church flowers, gave him a picture of our vision and they came out even more beautiful. Add Forest woods to your team and you won’t be disappointed!!!!!

  Fantastic!

  Vince from Forest woods was amazing in his ability to know what we wanted with just description and ideas. He stayed within budget despite having to make changes to all our centerpieces two weeks out from our wedding day. The bouquet, center pieces and all of the floral decorations were fantastic and fit the theme we had and brought the location to another level. He made everything easy for us and helped take the worry from us.

  Vince at Forest Woods is the BEST!! I showed him 2 pictures of what I liked for my bridal bouquet and bridesmaids bouquets and he delivered EXACTLY what I had envisioned. He understood my vision from our short conversation and went above and beyond to make it a reality. When I walked into the ballroom at our reception and saw my flowers, I felt like I was in a fairy tale. I couldn't even remember exactly what I had asked him for, but it was everything I had dreamed of all my life. If you need a wedding florist, this is the absolute best choice! :)

  My flowers and centerpieces were more beautiful than I could have ever imagined!! Vince and his ladies did a fabulous job!! Vince is very patient and flexible. I think I changed my centerpieces about 4 times, and one more time about a week before the wedding, and Vince made every request happen. Carol brought our flowers to the hotel before we headed off for pictures and even pinned the guys boutonnieres on them. Great group of people to work with!!

  Vince is amazing! He really feeds off the ideas you have for colors and flowers while trying to keep your budget in mind. He made beautiful centerpieces for our reception table centerpieces as well as lovely garlands for our gods & for us at our Indian wedding ceremony. We wanted elegance with the modern twist included without going out of our color scheme. I am so thankful that he was able to work with our schedule and try to get us the things we wanted in the correct quantities. He made the wow factor for the reception with all of the centerpieces. I would highly recommend Vince to everyone else I know!

  Vince was recommended to us by the floral department at Petitti's Garden Center. He has a shop in Cuyahoga Heights where he meets with clients. I had some ideas as to flowers and colors that I wanted and Vince really put together my vision. He was very flexible, as the number of bouquets and boutonnieres we needed changed a few times. I thought his prices were very reasonable compared to other florists I met with. He was also very knowledgeable about the whole wedding/event industry and gave me some good tips and advice.
  
  Most importantly, when I got to the chapel and saw the bouquets, I was blown away - they were exactly what I wanted! Gorgeous, rich colors and beautifully tied together. The bridesmaids received many compliments on their bouquets and are still enjoying them a few days later. Thank you Vince!

  Vince is awesome! I went in without knowing what kind of flowers I wanted. He asked me a few questions about my dress, bridesmaids dresses and colors and he just went with it. I had no idea what to expect and wow were the flowers gorgeous! Got so many compliments throughout the day. Highly recommend!

  We met with Vince, and he couldn't have been more helpful. My daughter explained what she wanted, and that's what she got. The flowers were beautiful. We made a few changes, closer to the date, and there wasn't a problem.

  Vince DiCillo of Forest Woods is *AN ARTIST*.
  Plain and simple.
  My dad has been bringing my mom flowers from Vince for years. And every time we just love seeing them because they are always beautiful, and creative, and different than what I've ever seen from other florists.
  I had 2 fairly lengthy meetings with Vince prior to my wedding. I told him what I liked and what I definitely did NOT want as part of my flowers (I didn't want ANY purples or mauves, but did want pinks, and a LOT of pink flowers tend to look mauv'y). We put together a GREAT plan and he fully executed in every aspect.
  My flowers ABSOLUTELY blew people away. Like made jaws drop when they walked into my reception. He put even more flowers in the tall arrangements than I thought he was going to. They were amazing and spectacular.
  My wedding was July 1, 2011. I had a dream of my bouquet being all white peonies. Unforunatley he was not able to promise me these because they were JUST out of season. He told me all along that there was a *chance* and that it was slim but he would try his best. So we made a "plan a" bouquet (peonies) and a "plan b" bouquet (other flowers). WELL! On my wedding day when I was presented with my bouquet of all white, beautiful, fragrant, perfect peonies, I started CRYING! They were spectacular, and he made it happen (I later found out he got them from Skandanavia!).
  I can't say enough great things about Vince at Forest Woods. He is 5 stars, no doubt.

  Hire Vince!

  Vince is brilliant. He is a no-frills vendor. He knows exactly what he's doing, can easily help guide you to what flowers you'll need to recreate some arrangements you share photos of, and does it all at an affordable price. Sometimes he was hard to reach, but at the end of the day, Vince and his team made the flowers for our rehearsal dinner and wedding absolutely perfect. Several people reached out asking for the florist name because they hope to use them for future events.

  Beautiful arrangements

  Forest woods did the flowers for our wedding and it was beautiful. His prices are great! He's not the most professional (texts pictures of contracts rather than emailing), but the flowers are beautiful! We would recommend him to anyone.

  Vince at Forest Woods was nice to work with. The work they do there is wonderful, and the flowers are fresh and beautiful. The first time we met with Vince, he even gave us a few flowers to take home! Sometimes it is tough to get ahold of him, in that he just asks you to call him back in 1/2 hour if he's with another client. Also, we never really saw a sample of what our flowers were going to look like as a finished product, so I kind of felt like I was flying blind. While the ladies who delivered our flowers that day were very nice and the flowers looked nice at our ceremony, had I seen a sample ahead of time, I probably would have asked to change it a bit.

  Vince was very nice and flexible to work with. I received many compliments on my flowers, however, they were not exactly what I asked for. Vince is hard to get a hold of at times and not quick to respond. I never got to see a sample of what I was asking for, so the first time I saw my flowers was on my wedding day. Although my bouquets were beautiful they were not what I was expecting. I specifically requested no roses, but there were roses in a lot of the church flowers. I wanted an all white bouquet and mine had some green in it. The isle flowers were not at all what we asked for and the girl that was at the church with the flowers did not have any idea of what to do. There were also several flowers and lighting that were not at the reception as discussed and on the contract. However, on a positive not the centerpieces were amazing!! I had tall centerpieces that were beyond beautiful. Overall, I would recommend Forest Woods, but make sure to get exactly what you are asking for and request a sample.
