Christina with A Bud & Beyond was exceptional with everything for our special day! Everything was gorgeous and she was responsive to every e-mail or text or call and gave excellent suggestions that stayed within our desired look. We got SOOOO many compliments on everything from the table runners to the arch décor to our bouquets/boutonnieres/corsages! Everything was just amazing and everything we wanted. She is amazing and does fantastic work. I don't think I can stress that enough.

THANK YOU CHRISTINA!

Christine was easy and a pleasure to work with. She took all of my requests and did an amazing job making my theme come to life In our floral arrangements. When we had to drop a few tables last minute she was able to repurpose all the extra arrangements into other areas for our wedding that made it even more impressive and elegant. I was very happy with how they turned out. Great service and great eye for detail!

Christina with A Bud & Beyond is magnificent! My flowers were unlike anything I ever dreamed. So unique and beautiful. I highly recommend her services to anyone in the Lake Tahoe area!

I could write a book on how AMAZING Christina was at helping me create the most beautiful wedding in the world with her beautiful, artistic, and creative floral designs; however, I believe that people like to read reviews that aren't so lengthy. So, to sum up the BEST florist on this planet, I will say this;

1. You will not find anyone better then A Bud and Beyond, so stop searching and book her ASAP, before someone else snatches her up on your date.
2. Her creativity, mindset, and ability to capture exactly what you want is impeccable. A Bud and Beyond will exceed all your expectations!
3. Every time I look at the photographs of my wedding and see the floral arrangements, I have a feeling of joy that I cannot even explain. The beauty and emotions that I feel towards the flowers that Christina made for my wedding cannot be replicated by any other florist.
4. Finally, every single person at my wedding said that the flowers were the most beautiful arrangements they had ever seen. Please know that some of these people who said these words included vendors at my wedding who have seen thousands of weddings.

Oh and Christina was by far the easiest person to work with! She understands brides and what they want and creates the most beautiful weddings through her floral works.

Cheers to Christina at A Bud and Beyond!

Christina at A Bud & Beyond did an absolutely amazing job with the flowers and linens for our wedding! She was able to perfectly match my vision to create the wedding of my dreams. Christina is very professional and great to work with. I would very highly recommend her!

We had an amazing experience working with Christina from A Bud and Beyond. She completely understood our vision, presented ideas to help complement them, and was always responsive.

In terms of value, we felt like we got so much for the money we spent - our flowers and tables were absolutely stunning and Christina ensured everything was set up on time, and exactly as how we envisioned.

We had some issues with the event planner at our venue, and having done weddings at that site before, Christina stepped up and was extremely helpful in guiding us through a lot of the choices we had to make. She became part florist and part planner for us, which we really appreciated. Definitely above and beyond! Her suggestions and experience were great - and for the record the flowers were beautiful too! She is organized, flexible and talented.

I used A Bud and Beyond for my wedding on June 15, 2013 in Carnelian Bay, CA. I worked closely with Christina and was incredibly impressed with her professionalism and talent.

I contacted her on a Monday (her day off) five weeks prior to my wedding. She got back to me the same day (her day off!) and spoke with me on the phone for about thirty minutes to find out exactly what I needed. I was on a budget and was doing the majority of my flowers on my own - However, I wanted to purchase my bouquet, 10 boutonnieres, six corsages and two flowers for my cake. I knew I wanted those things to be professionally done.

I believe that Christina was incredibly kind to do my order. I was giving her very late notice and contacting her during her busiest time of the year. I am so grateful that she agreed to take on another client in me!

I emailed Christina my pinterest page and she looked through images of the things I wanted. She was able to send me a quote for my order that same day. When I had questions about pricing she was able to work with me to find out ways I could save a little money but still have the look I wanted.

I live about four hours away from Tahoe so we did everything over phone and email. I never saw the flowers - I never did a consultation. I had read reviews and looked at their website and I knew this was the company I wanted to work with.

Two days after first speaking with Christina, I signed an invoice and sent her a check for the balance. I spent about $750 with her on the order which included tax and a delivery charge of $55.

Once my check had arrived, she contacted me and emailed me an invoice that indicated I had paid in full. All this was completed within seven days of our first email.

On the day of my wedding, the flowers arrived on time and they were GORGEOUS. I was so happy. Christina took what I told her I wanted and created exactly what I asked for and made it even more beautiful than I had imagined.

Christina at A Bud and Beyond was a pleasure to work with and very professional. She went very far to ensure that we were satisfied with our floral designs. We worked "remotely" with Christina in that we live in the Bay Area and she is located in Lake Tahoe. Christina was very responsive and provided us EXACTLY what we desired. She also provided us additional seating at minimal cost and a garden arch that was decorated in our flowers for the wedding. The designs and presentation of her arrangements were excellent and delivered as described. Her designs for the bouquet and the flower girls were also excellent and we were more than pleased. My suggestion to others would be to not waste time searching for other florist but to instead work directly with A Bud and Beyond.

Christina and A Bud and Beyond did an amazing job with flowers and decor at my wedding. Christina took my vision and made it ten times more beautiful than I could have imagined. The decor at my ceremony and recption were stunning, and guests are still commenting on it! Christina was also so much fun to work with- was always very quick to respond and had so many great ideas. I planned my whole wedding over the phone since it was a destination wedding in Tahoe and we are from Illinois and I could not have been happier with how beautiful everything turned out. Christina and her crew also do all of the set up and take down which makes it stress free for the bride and groom on the big day. I would recommend using A Bud and Beyond to anyone for their big event they are amazing!!!
