    Gorgeous Florals!

    Whistlestop Florist knocked it out of the park for our wedding! I had a lot of concerns when it came to choosing our flowers due to my allergies, and Kim was so understanding and knowledgeable. She walked us through which flowers would be safest AND created the most beautiful arrangements for our big day.

    Beautiful Flowers!!!

    Kim and her team made the most BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS I have ever seen for my wedding. I personally am not a huge fan of flowers nor do I know much about them, but Kim made all our bouquets and arbor decors absolutely stunning. Due to COVID, I was unable to meet with her in person so all the details I had in mind was done over phone or email based off of pictures. Kim executed exactly what I wanted and I am SO glad that I chose to work with her.

    When I first was looking for a florist, I reached out to several shops all of which either ghosted me, or never responded, or responded weeks later. Kim however has been extremely responsive since day one which I truly appreciate. Recommend her BIG TIME to make the most memorable flowers on your special day!

    Beautiful Arrangements!

    Kim was amazing to work with and created beautiful flower arrangements for our 2020 wedding and 2021 reception. She made our vision come to life for our unexpected backyard wedding ceremony, and one year later made beautiful centerpieces for our wedding reception. I loved that she incorporated some lighting into our arrangements to give them an extra spark and make things special. She was always very helpful in offering suggestions and being flexible as our plans changed. We highly recommend Kim and the entire team at Whistlestop to make things beautiful for your special day(s).

We were in absolute awe of how truly gorgeous all of our floral arrangements were - and how amazingly talented she and her team is! We could not be happier with how absolutely perfect everything was - she truly exceeded all of our expectations! We were so lucky to have Whistlestop as such a big part of our day! Thank you so so much, Kim!

    Such talent!

    Kim did a beautiful job with our flowers! I would highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding. She replied promptly to all of our questions and last minute additions and their pricing was more than fair. The bouquets and boutonnieres she created were exactly what I was picturing and were such a special part of our wedding day.

    Whistlestop Florist's reply:

    Katelyn, thank you for the kind words and we had such fun designing your colorful fun bouquets! So happy to be a part of your special day!

    We planned a small wedding in less than two months and reached out to Whistlestop Florist within four weeks of our wedding date. I don't recommend doing this to vendors! But they were wonderful - they fit us in for a consultation immediately. And the flowers were GORGEOUS!!! Big, beautiful, healthy bouquets that were exactly what we had asked for. PERFECTION.

    Kim at Whistlestop was absolutely amazing to work with, I can't say enough good things about her. She was very thorough in finding out the specific vibe and vision of what I wanted for my wedding, and went above and beyond to make the flowers and arrangements for my day absolutely perfect. Her work is excellent, the arrangements were gorgeous and she was very responsive and flexible to changes I had closer to the event and accommodated them easily. Great to work with, worth every penny and I would recommend her to anyone.

    Kim and her crew were great to work throughout my wedding planning. They are quick to accommodate your needs and what you are truly looking for. Kim took my look and ran with it. I totally trusted her to make it happen. All of the flowers were gorgeous. The centerpieces were perfect and my bridal bouquets were just stunning. Thank you Kim for helping make everything so beautiful.

    The flowers for my daughters wedding this past weekend were absolutely beautiful- from the bouquet and boutonnieres to the floral centerpieces! My daughter's request was for the flowers to be primarily white with roses and daisies and a touch of blush roses and that is exactly what she got! We supplied the submersible lights and Kim had them in the vases and easily accessible for the reception venue to turn them on after the ceremony. Absolutely Lovely!!

    Kim and the entire Whistlestop team were amazing in helping plan our wedding flowers. We did not live in state so Kim spoke with my mom and I over many phone calls and emails to get every detail right. To be honest, my mom cared about the bouquets and arrangements much more than I did in the planning process but once we swung by Whistlestop a few days before the wedding to see what they were working on, I was blown away. My bouquet was absolutely perfect and fit my style so well. We asked for an adjustment on the centerpieces which the staff had no problem making and they looked great on the day of the wedding. Delivery, set up, etc looked even better than I had dreamed in the chapel and our reception venue. If you want a florist who will listen to your ideas and make them into something better than you could have ever picked yourself, who is easily reachable, and who you can rely on to have everything look fantastic - look no further than Whistlestop.

    Whistlestop florist- especially Kim was so great to work with. My sister had used this florist for her wedding a year before mine and I knew I couldn’t look anywhere else because the flowers came out amazing. We met with Kim a little less than a year before our wedding day and I explained to her my vision- everything came out exactly how I pictured or even better. I cannot thank them enough, and highly reccomend Whistlestop!!

    I was so lost when it came to flowers for our wedding, but fortunately Kim was there to save the day! She took the time to go over all the details of our wedding and made our vision come to life! After describing our venue, colors, and "rustic elegance" theme, her creativity took place and she knew just what to do! Our bouquets were stunning, and the centerpieces were absolutely perfect for our venue. Thank you so much to Kim and the whole team at Whistlestop Florist!

    Kim and the staff at Whistlestop were top notch. The quality of the flowers and the arrangements were breathtaking. We lived 4 hours away during the planning process, but Kim made every effort to set up meetings when we were in town, even if it meant starting her day early.

    There was no detail overlooked, Kim made sure that we had flowers for everything / everyone that we wanted - and we even came in UNDER budget.

    Kim was fabulous to work with. I cannot say enough about the arrangements and centerpieces; Everything was stunning! In addition, her prices are reasonable with fabulous service. I was so pleased, I phoned Kim a few days after as I continued to enjoy the flowers in our home.

    Kim did an amazing job on my wedding flowers, especially my bouquet. Her knowledge and expertise helped us tremendously during the design process. I came to her with little more than color choices and ideas I had seen on Pinterest. She took those ideas and created the most beautiful set of flowers. The color and style were exactly what I had hoped for. I’m extremely grateful for her opening her schedule up for me when I gave her late notice. She is extremely talented and made our wedding day absolutely beautiful.

    Kim was AWESOME!!!!! Matched my vision PERFECTLY!! (and I'm verrrryyy picky, being a graphic designer) She met all my vision's expectations. My bouquet was GORGEOUS! Along with all my bridesmaid's bouquets. The centerpieces were flawless. I did a mix of tall centerpieces and table top greenery, HIGHLY recommend doing. She did a good mix of everything and made a nice flow to the whole venue. When there were any concerns with budget, she truthfully told me where I should cut and where to not. I couldn't be more happy with the services Kim and her team provided for my wedding day :D

    Whistlestop has to be the best florist in CNY. We came to them with a few vague color ideas and a few pinterest pictures and after consultation, we ended up with the perfect flowers. They were exactly what we wanted but couldn't adequately articulate. The whole process was easy, they are totally professional and their shop is a charming place to meet. We loved that the bride could go and preview the flowers the day before, for peace of mind. They helped us stay within our budget and it never felt like they were trying to sell us anything. In fact, we got the impression that their only priority was making sure that we could have the perfect flowers for our wedding. It worked, because the product we received was equal to or better than anything that we had looked at in the wide world of pinterest, instagram, etc. We let them run with a vision and their creativity and technique came through. Overall, a product of surpassing excellence at a fair price.
