Petal Beach did an amazing job with the flowers for our wedding. Even though I was initially indecisive about the flowers I wanted, Bonnie was with me every step of the way, offering advice and listening to my "vision", even though I changed my mind a couple times. The bouquets were breathtaking and the ceremony and reception decor was just what we had pictured. We loved all the little personal touches that Petal Beach brought to the flowers too, especially the pins in the shape of a flower on the bottom of the bouquets, and the sachet of lavendar to put in my purse.
Bonnie's professionalism, attention to detail, and warm, laid-back personality made the whole experience easy and stress-free. I would recommend Petal Beach wholeheartedly to anyone I know who is planning a wedding!

Petal Beach was an amazing vendor to work with, especially Bonnie! I was referred to them after my contracted florist shop closed and I couldnt be more grateful. Bonnie was always available to reach out to, whether by email, phone or in person. My meetings with her were always refreshing and she offered great ideas for my wedding. The final results of my bouquets and boutineers were unbelievable! Everyone is still talking about my flowers and they photographed beautifully. I would highly recommend Petal Beach florist to anyone planning any type of formal event.

These ladies are AMAZING! I had pretty specific colors/themes that i wanted for my fall wedding and they made it all come true, better than I'd imagined. The centerpieces were exquisite, with orchids and curly willow, placed in amber glass tall vases with glass gems and mini pumpkins inside, all lit with an LED light from within so they glowed. So cool! They hung paper lanterns and little glass candle baskets so the overall effect was warm, colorful, and autumnal. They also made little "sets" outside of the venue with mums, grasses, and hay that were so beautiful, we used them in a lot of the wedding photos as background. I really could go on and on with their creativity. All you need to do is give them an idea, and they go off on it, so TRUST THEM!!! They have great taste and know exactly what to do. Bonnie and Christine were both really easy to talk to, and had great suggestions and advice for anything i was confused or unsure about. They have a superior knowledge of flowers and know what will work and what won't. They are not pushy and gladly work within your budget. I will recommend them to everyone, and will definitely use them the next time I need floral work!

Bonnie was an absolute pleasure to work with. She took my ideas for centerpieces and bouquets and knew instantly what I was looking for, from the texture I wanted in the bouquets to the various pinks I wanted in bouquets. I received rave reviews on the centerpieces, which guests also got to take home, and complimented the decor in the room so well. I absolutely recommend Petal Beach!

I cannot tell you how happy I was with Petal Beach. I made an appointment with Bonnie and she was awesome!!! I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted and she really helped me along the way. She made great suggestions and was very interested in making me happy. She was in constant communication with me through email. The flowers for the wedding were AMAZING. The colors of the flowers were magnificant with the bridesmaids dresses. My bouquet was gorgeous and it was just what I had asked for. The bouquets were full and did not look skimpy at all. The centerpieces were superb. EVERYONE raved about the flowers. People were fighting to take the centerpieces home. I highly reccomend Bonnie and Petal Beach. She made my wedding flowers so wonderful!!! THANKS BONNIE!!!

Petal Beach did such a wonderful job on all of our wedding flowers and centerpieces! Planning a long distance wedding was very stressful, but Bonnie put us at ease with her professionalism and warmth.
The flowers were beyond our ideals. They were absolutely beautiful and extremely fresh. I would recommend Petal Beach to any couple planning their wedding.

Bonnie and the Petal Beach team were amazing! From the moment I walked into Petal Beach I knew this was the place I wanted to create my wedding day flowers. I had no idea what kind of flowers or centerpieces I wanted for my wedding but Bonnie and her team assured me that even though I didn't have a "vision" they would help me create the most amazing bouquets and centerpieces I could have ever dreamt of.....and they were right. They walked me through the colors, styles and flower types like they were family! I may not have been the easiest client but never did she make me feel that way. This was quite possibly the easiest part of my wedding planning! You'll never have to worry about your flowers with Petal Beach! They are the most wonderful and amazing team you could have imagined. Words cannot express how happy I was with the flowers and my greatest compliment was from a guest who was a former florist who complimented on the freshness and design of the bouquets and centerpieces. When another florist is impressed you know you have made a great choice! All brides should look to Petal Beach for their wedding day flowers because you will not be disappointed! Thank you Petal Beach for a wonderful job and an unforgettable wedding day!

Where do I begin to describe my experience with Petal Beach. From our first meeting with Bonnie all the way through to my wedding day - Petal Beach became one of my absolute favorite vendors. Bonnie's sweet, easy-going nature and creativity make her an absolute joy to work with. She really took time and a personal interest in me and my wedding to design my dream wedding flowers. The day of my wedding, the flowers completely blew me away. I have never seen such perfect and beautiful bouquets and centerpieces! Even the day after, I was still speechless and in awe at how beautiful the flowers were. Bonnie is truly gifted and talented with her floral design.

Petal Beach went above and beyond all my expectations and I would HIGHLY reccommend them for all brides. You will not be disappointed!

Do yourself a favor if you are in search of a florist for your wedding in the Central/South Jersey area...please check out Petal Beach. Bonnie is an absolute joy to work with. Her calm and pleasant demeanor is exactly what you need during this crazy and fun time of your life. For me, I didn't have a clear picture of what I wanted...I knew I wanted daisies and that wanted it simple. Bonnie brought it all into focus for us and the result was nothing short of perfect. From my bouquet, to the girls bouquets to the table arrangements...everything was stunning - and exactly what I had in mind. But there is more to it...Bonnie's efforts are truly from the heart and you know that as soon as you meet her. That made all the difference in the world to me and it will for you too.

Bonnie quickly figured out my taste by showing me different flowers and determining what I liked and what I didn't like. Bonnie took it from there and made everything incredibly easy. She even glued little white seashells to brown ribbon around the centerpiece vases to incorporate the color. Of all of my wedding tasks, the one I didn't worry about was the flowers. Bonnie knows her stuff, is familiar with local venues, and her advice, not only about flowers but about weddings generally, was spot on.

The flowers turned out beautifully, and everyone raved about them. Petal Beach is a tremendous florist shop and Bonnie is wonderful to work with.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Bonnie! She and her team have a passion for what they do, and it reflects in their work. The flowers for my wedding in September were amazing! I met with Bonnie several times and she really took the time to get to know me. She translated my vague ideas about flowers into stunning arrangements in beautiful colors on the big day. I could not have been happier! In addition to being responsive and professional, Bonnie is extremely talented - she has an amazing vision that will make your special day absolutely perfect. Bonnie has always gone above and beyond for me, and I wholeheartedly recommend Petal Beach to all brides-to-be.

Bonnie is great! All my flowers came out beautifully! When I first saw the girls bouquets I almost cried they were perfect, I could not have dreamt of anything nicer! Bonnie was very creative and really worked with all my ideas and my endless changes. It was so nice to see my scattered ideas transformed to gorgeous centerpeices! She even helped me come up with a color scheme for my wedding, when I was unsure what colors to go with. I am very pleased with all of my wedding day flowers!

I cannot say enough about Bonnie and Petal Beach. Every Bride needs someone like Bonnie to be part of their day. From the moment my mother and I met her, there was a sense of friendship, guidance, and calmness. Bonnie met with me and as I sat there and explained my ideas for bouquets, centerpieces, pew bows, etc... she quickly gathered flowers, swatches and pictures, before you knew it she helped build my vision for our day. Bonnie went above and beyond to work with my budget and help me bring everything together. Bonnie and her staff brought our bouquets to us the morning of the wedding, there are no real words to describe how absolutely gorgeous all of the flowers were. My centerpieces were exactly how we had pictured and the talk of our reception. To sum it up, I truly was blessed to find someone like Bonnie and Petal Beach to be part of our special day! We can't thank you enough Bonnie!
