Highly Recommended Florist!

Douglas Koch, of DKD, is a true floral professional! Throughout the planning process, Douglas got on numerous calls with us, went through many revisions, and ultimately brought our dream wedding floral style and design to life with unbelievable execution. From the stunning intimate personal florals, the voluminous arbor and ceremony florals (that Douglas allowed us to DIY the shallow urn vases for), and the incredible tablescapes, everything was breathtaking and made the already beautifully manicured Hudson Valley equestrian farm and reception barn look like an elegant European countryside event venue, just like we dreamed. We couldn't have been happier with the outcome and how helpful and accommodating Douglas was for our wedding. We highly recommend Douglas Koch Designs!

Daughters Wedding

Douglas is a true master of his craft. He was very easy and fun to work with. Douglas brought to life a beautiful elegance to my daughters wedding. Most impressive was that we gave him the wrong number of bridesmaids and were on bouquet short. At the venue an hour an hour before the ceremony, he magically produced a bouquet that matched the rest close enough that not a guest would have noticed. Everything from the bouquets, table flowers, fireplace mantle gracefully flowing with white flowers and greenery, vines winding through the stair railing to the abundance of flickering candles all beautifully complement the Adirondack lodge. A prefect contrast of formal meets rustic. D. Partridge

5 Starts for our Wedding Planner Extraordinaire

We cannot thank Douglas Koch Designs, LTD enough for making our wedding day absolutely magical. From the very first consultation, they were warm, professional, and incredibly organized. Every detail—from the floral arrangements to the timeline—was handled with care and precision.

What truly set them apart was their ability to stay calm and collected under pressure. When unexpected rain threatened our outdoor ceremony, they seamlessly transitioned everything indoors without missing a beat. Their creativity and quick thinking saved the day!

Communication was flawless throughout the planning process. They were always available to answer questions, offer suggestions, and keep us updated. We felt supported every step of the way.

Thanks to their dedication and expertise, our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. We wholeheartedly recommend Douglas Koch Designs, LTD to any couple looking for a planner who will go above and beyond to make their day unforgettable.

Flowers to Remember

My husband and I cannot express how overjoyed we are with the flowers that Douglas Koch prepared for our wedding. We got married in late April in 2023 and first heard about Douglas through a coworker. Douglas held several phone and in person meetings with us to discuss options for flower arrangements, cake decorations, bouquets, mantle decorations, corsages, and boutonnieres. Douglas quickly zeroed in on our wedding aesthetic and ideas about decor and centerpieces and had a plan in no time. We were very open with color and flower choices with the only ask that it included mini sunflowers for pops of bright summery color and Douglass’s imagination did the rest. The result was breathtaking, each decoration and arrangement were brilliant splashes of sunflowers with vibrant jewel tones arranged in a variety of colored apothecary glasses. Every table was stunning and the mantle arrangement was amazing. The stars of the show were the bridal bouquet and all of the flowers for our family to wear. We only wish that the flowers could last forever because they were absolutely perfect!

I cannot say enough positive things regarding Douglas Koch and the flowers I received. Not only was he able to do changes with a weeks notice - what he provided for the bouquets and centerpieces were breathtaking!! I received many compliments on both!!
If I ever have the need for flowers for a function in the future I will be sure to attempt to hire Doug!!!

10/10 recommend

I was very nervous about trusting the reviews online to relay my wedding day dreams but YALLLL LOOK NO FURTHER!!! Douglas Koch was HANDS DOWN the best florist and ARTIST I have ever worked with. Not only was he kind and helpful in planning from 1200 miles away, but he was also flexible when we had a drastic guest count change. From the custom-made arbor to the beautiful bouquets, his talents really are limitless.

Douglas is an absolute magician with florals and decor!

As a wedding professional in the Hudson Valley for many years, I have been recommending Douglas to clients as my premiere florist, and he never disappoints. When my daughter was getting married there was no one else I would trust her special day to than Douglas and his amazing team. My daughter got married at a lakefront pavilion that didn't have much going for it other than location and Douglas worked his magic, transforming it with draping, lights, linens, and flowers. He turned a basic park pavilion into a magical wedding venue, and he did it all with grace and a smile. Douglas and Joe are always such a pleasure to work with and if you are looking for a florist or designer for your big day you can stop searching because you've found the best!

Amazing florist and designer

Douglas was helpful in preparing us for our wedding design and flowers every step of the way. Douglas, Joe and Eddie created a magical experience for us the day of and leading up to our wedding. His floral designs were unique and wonderful, and he went above and beyond in every way you can imagine. He was prompt, friendly and caring, and treated us like family. You can see the passion he has for his work, and his reputation is stellar in his field; every other vendor we hired said "if you hired Douglas, you know it's going to be good". 10/10. Thank you Douglas and Joe!

Beautiful decor

Douglas and his team exceeded our expectations with our flowers and decor and executed our vision flawlessly.

We had our wedding at Hunter and had severe thunderstorms in the area which needed to be monitored to ensure a summit ceremony could happen. He and his team were able to roll with the punches to get our chuppah set up at the summit and make the reception flowers look flawless.

He was clear in communication throughout the process and worked with me to incorporate some of my decor elements (signage) to fit with the overall reception aesthetic of whimsical and romantic. Everyone loved the florals - Douglas and his team did a killer job. Thank you again, we cannot recommend them enough!

Absolutely beautiful

I cannot say enough about how beautiful the flowers and centerpieces were by Douglas. They far exceeded anything I ever even imagined! And working with Douglas was great…. So kind and easy going! He really listened to what we wanted and created things that were GORGEOUS. At the last minute, I asked for a few flowers to be added to the wedding cake…. When I saw the “few flowers” on the wedding cake I was stunned. 1000000% Recommend.
