A Duarte Dream

Monika is more than a florist - she's a stylist, a collaborator, and an artist.....and maybe a magician! She helped bring my daughter's unique vision to life at the Welcome Party and Wedding in Key West last month. We threw a lot at her - lions, hydrangeas, limes, chili peppers, tones of greens, French blue with pops of red and yellow. We dreamed of special pins and lace from her gown on boutonnieres and clutches. We envisioned chili peppers cascading over the dance floors and limes spilling out onto the tables and bar. There'd be three bouquets for each dress change, and a color story would evolve from muted greens/blues at the ceremony, to adding pops of red and yellow at the reception, to a full-on color explosion at dinner. And boy, did Monika deliver! She helped source the perfect linens, chargers, candles, and lanterns. I think she bought out all the limes and chili peppers on the island! Our guests literally gasped as they entered the dinner. It was so unexpected, so textural, so layered, and just accented all the joy we felt that night. Monika - thank you for turning visions into reality and making dreams come true!

Say YES to Duarte! You will not regret it!!

If you are reading reviews and wondering if you should say yes to Duarte, the answer is 1000% YES!!! Monika and the whole Duarte team is absolutely amazing! They made the wedding day of our dreams become reality. Between the design, florals, linens, and napkins Monika was there making sure that it was everything we LOVED and more!! I work in the Key West wedding industry and I can say there is absolutely no one like Duarte! So much talent, love, and care goes into each one of her floral designs and you can definitely tell! She listens to you and what you want and makes it even better than you could have ever imagined! Trust in her. Trust in the process. Trust me when I say you will not regret having Duarte apart of your big day!

Dream florist

HIRE THIS COMPANY Monika Duarte and her team went above and beyond to make my wedding florals the most spectacular and stunning arrangements and bouquets that I have ever seen. They were everything I could have hoped for in a wedding florist and MORE. Professional, Artistic, Kind, efficient. Monika has such a magical way with bouquets and arrangements- she took my vision and made it beyond what I had imagined. I honestly cannot stop thinking about my flowers and staring at them. She also gave every single detail the utmost attention to make it beautiful- from the wrapping of the bouquets, to the pearl pins holding things in place, and on the day-of spent extra time lovingly pinning my rosary and my locket (with my recently deceased Dad's and brother's pictures inside) to my bouquet so that everything was secure and perfect. She worked within my budget and offered options should I want to upgrade details but did not pressure me. She also provided centerpiece accessories and designed the entire look of the tables with us to transform them into magical moments. Thank you Team Duarte for florals I will never forget

Duarte is a creative genius!

Duarte was such a pleasure to work with for our floral designs, linens, and ceremony chuppah. Monika brought our vision to life – gorgeous pinks, blues and greens inspired by the venue, the ocean, the sand, and the palm trees. I could not have imagined a more beautiful bridal bouquet, so much that my mom and mother-in-law last minute also decided to preserve the flowers. Monika then provided extra flowers from wedding day to assist in the best preservation. How amazing is that!!! Duarte is incredibly talented and beautiful human to work with!

Amazingggg!

If you are getting married in Key West and haven’t booked your florist yet then contact Monica at Duarte ASAP!! You will not regret it! We met with Monika about a year out from our wedding for a consultation and showed her all of our inspo and right from the beginning she was making amazing suggestions for both florals and decor. Over the course of the year she was extremely patient with our many requests/changes/thoughts throughout the process and she was always willing to make any and all adjustments. It was hard at first being from out of town and trying to imagine it all come together, but we trusted the team at Duarte to make our wedding day perfect…and they did just that. When we did our walk through of the space before guests arrived we were absolutely blown away by the detail, the arrangements, the colors and literally everything that the team did for us!! It exceeded our expectations and truly turned out perfect. It made our wedding day something we will never forget! 3 months later and we are still admiring the florals and getting comments from friends and family about just how beautiful it was. So do yourself a favor and book with Duarte ASAP because you and your spouse will not be disappointed!

Beautiful Full Blooms

Monika is a magician! And one of the sweetest humans I have met! While picking up our rehearsal flowers, she made sure to say hi and to make sure I loved everything she put together for that night. My mom was so impressed by the rehearsal flowers and even more so for the ceremony/reception florals. I have to be honest; I did not do my research on what flowers were in season/what is best for the Florida heat – all I gave her was some Pinterest pictures that depicted bright colorful flowers and told her I wanted a hint of blue to match the bridesmaids dresses and she completely knocked it out of the park!! I absolutely loved everything she put together!

Monika Duarte is a true artist!

Duarte Floral Design creates stunning and unique floral designs, and Monika created absolutely exquisite arrangements for our wedding. We decided we wanted a tropical theme with some softer tones and Monika understood our vision immediately (peach and light pink roses with red gingers).

I showed Monika my veil which had peach flowers on it, and she incorporated the most beautiful pink peonies into my bridal bouquet which complemented my veil perfectly. We also entrusted her with the decorations and she delivered with ceramic and glass vases, beautiful dark brown rattan plate chargers, and medium pink linen napkins. Most of all, we absolutely LOVED the floral arch that she and her team created for us for our ceremony at the Hyatt Centric dock. After the ceremony, our photographer (Bailey Myers of Meandering Media) captured our favorite photo – us under the arch at sunset – so her work will live on forever!

Monika was with us every step of the way. After we scaled back our budget about six months before the wedding, she helped us readjust our order so we could have the flowers of our dreams at our price point. We highly recommend Duarte Floral Design!

Duarte is amazing!

If you have the opportunity to work with Monika from Duarte take advantage of it! Where do I begin? Her floral arrangements are stunning, but her vision to make our wedding ceremony and reception come to life was flawless. She put together an amazing driftwood arch for us and used lanterns to line the aisle for our beach ceremony.
She then repurposed everything from the ceremony to decorate our reception space. She even designed a lounge with wingback chairs, couch and pillows for our guests which was a huge hit. She is a consummate professional and is an expert in her field. She is a pleasure to work with.

Creative Genius, Amazing Woman

Monika designed and her team at Duarte Floral Design delivered the floral for my rehearsal dinner and wedding. I was married in November, 2022, and I wanted dark autumnal tones in my floral. Nothing that read, "tropical beach wedding," which may have seemed an odd request when getting married in Key West. Well, Monika got my vision immediately. Monika is tough, but always right (I'm not kidding, she is). I will remember fondly her convincing me that azure is the, "true Italian blue," after I had selected navy linens for a Southern Italy theme rehearsal dinner. My greatest advise is to share your vision high level and let Monika run with it. Seriously, listen to Monika. She is an absolute genius of her craft, and I cannot thank her and her team enough for making my wedding weekend absolutely gorgeous.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
