Of all the vendors I worked with, Stephanie was by far the best. She has an artistic sense that resulted in stunning arrangements and bouquets. Other vendors tried to steer me to roses for Fall flowers but Stephanie embraced my desire for really unique flowers. Everyone was blown away by the flowers....I can't wait to see how much they enance the pictures. I appreciate her eye for beauty, her ability to capture my style and make great recommendations, and her genuine interest in making my wedding as memorable as possible. I would highly recommend her to any bride.

I found Stephanie absolutely terrific to work with. Some of the florists I went to would say "yes" to anything I suggested, even though I had no idea what I was talking about! Stephanie actually guided me to making choices that would be seasonal (therefore less expensive) and more setting appropriate than what I had thought of. She understood the feel I was going for, and was able to lead me to create that in a more beautiful way than I had imagined. I really appreciated this - looking back, if we had gone with my original ideas - it would have been just okay, but instead, our wedding was decorated just perfectly!

Stephanie was very responsive both with phone, email, and personal visits - whether I just found another picture of inspiration on the internet I wanted her to see or I was worried about something. She was calm and reassuring every step of the way.

And as for the results - it was amazing. I loved my bouquet, and couldn't believe how she transformed the space, making my color choices and overall feel for the event come alive with just a few strategically placed arrangements.

One more important thing - her pricing is very reasonable. She always made sure to keep my budget in mind, and never tried to push me beyond what I was comfortable with. I was amazed at how much she could do for a very reasonable amount of money. I wholeheartedly recommend her.

Working with Stephanie at Wisteria was great. My wedding was in June 2010 and my vision was an outdoor garden wedding with an indoor reception and peonies galore. Wisteria helped make that a reality with their attention to detail, professionalism and creativity. My husband and I could not have been more happy. It was gorgeous! I highly recommend Wisteria for any floral needs and especially your wedding!

Stephanie did a wonderful job on the flowers for both my wedding ceremony and my reception. The arrangements were so beautiful and really reflected the ambiance I wanted for my wedding. I loved my bridal bouquet and bridesmaids bouquets, which were so gorgeous and lush. She was really friendly and willing to work with any changes I had with my budget and/or ideas. I would highly recommend Stephanie to any bride because she truly is an artist and fantastic to work with.

Stephanie did a great job with my flowers! I had a vision of what I wanted my flowers to look like, and Stephanie was able to bring that vision to life. She really listened to what I was looking for and made great suggestions when I wasn't sure!

My one compliant is that her studio takes awhile to get to (it's a bit off the beaten path), but her friendliness, responsiveness, and creativity definitely outweigh the minor inconvenience of the studio location!

Stephanie is a delight and a terrific artist. She worked with us to keep the costs within our budget while providing flowers and arrangements that completed the event well. I was very pleased with the work she did. The flowers on the cake were gorgeous as well. Stephanie really loves her work and it showed in the quality of the arrangements as well as her pleasant and calm demeanor.

One of the best decisions we made when choosing vendors for our daughter's recent wedding, was to go with Stephanie Melvin. Planning this event from the other side of the country could have been complicated and stressful. We had one meeting with Stephanie and from there she really took the reins and delivered a spectacular floral effort. Her product was farm fresh, sophisticated and lush. I would highly recommend Wisteria Florals for your special event.

Shortly after I approached Stephanie about the possibility of her doing flowers for my wedding (after an earlier vendor fell through) we were on the phone talking about how I envisioned the look and feel of my wedding, the colours used, favorite flowers, etc. She struck that perfect mix of friendly, approachable and highly professional, offering input based on my suggestions, and I knew I had found our florist! The resulting flowers were fresh, stylish and beautifully assembled - she is definitely one of those creative minds! I would only mention that part of the reason she is so competitively priced is due to the fact that her containers are rentals. While she spells this out clearly, it didn't quite dawn on me the amount of effort it would take, and it was a bit of a hassle getting the flowers from the venue to the hotel (we were in town only two days after the wedidng from Seattle) to my mother's house to be picked up.

Wisteria did my recent wedding and they were FABULOUS! I had the ceremony and reception at two different venues, neither with overly much time to set up, but Stephanie and her staff did a wonderful job! The bouquets and corsages and boutennieres were beautiful and my centerpieces were unique and perfect for the venue! I got lots of compliments on the flowers and I couldn't have been more happy! Many thanks!

I was a little nervous about my flowers as I didn't order them until just a few weeks before the wedding. I had a small order, and Stephanie was happy to take it. I didn't get to work with her much, but she was very calm and prepared the perfect bouquet for me. I was THRILLED when I got it! Thank you Stephanie!

Stephanie Melvin is the consummate floral artist. Her unerring eye for color and form is combined with a real ability to listen and relate to her clients. I should know -- I was overflowing with ideas, and she helped me to focus my vision. My wedding order was relatively large -- four large arrangements for the church and reception, twelve table centerpieces, 11 bouquets, 14 boutonnieres, cake flowers, assorted mantel-top arrangements, six candelabra arrangements, and some other pieces as well.

Her work is absolutely exquisite, and her standards for freshness are top-notch. Our fall wedding was breathtakingly beautiful, and romantic yet modern, all thanks to Stephanie and her gorgeous, lush, creative work.
