Working with Lisa at Flora Bella was one of the best wedding decisions we made, hands down. We went with Flora Bella not only because of their beautiful flower portfolio, but because they hailed from our own Northeast Minneapolis. Everything went smoothly straight from the beginning. We outlined what we were looking for with some photos and then stopped in to discuss things with Lisa and her designer. We immediately knew we were in good hands. They started with some great questions, getting a sense of who we were, our interests, and the general style we were looking for. They immediately came up with great ideas, like using fresh wheat to tie in with our venue, using apothecary jars to tie in with our science backgrounds, and using seasonal flowers. Everything was very deliberately planned and chosen, each piece having a purpose. Communication wise, Lisa always kept us in the loop with any updates. For example, two days prior, Lisa alerted us that the flower colors would be slightly more muted than we had initially planned (no worries whatsoever on our end). On the day of our wedding, we were absolutely stunned by how beautiful the flowers and arrangements looked. The bouquets were gorgeous, and incorporated fresh lilac that smelled amazing. The colors were excellent accents for both our wedding colors and the venue itself. And each flower was of the highest quality, just showing how much care Lisa put into creating the arrangements. The boutonnières were just as high quality. And the table decorations looked incredible all throughout the reception space. Our guests made lovely comments about the flowers the entire night. Lisa even did the flowers for our cake! Every detail with our flowers turned out lovely and we really could not have made a better decision than to have Lisa and Flora Bella handle our wedding flowers. Overall, Flora Bella was affordable, creative, and attentive to every detail (and Lisa was a joy to work with). We cannot recommend them enough!

You can tell Lisa is an inspired artist simply by the things she surrounds herself with in her northeast Minneapolis warehouse studio. When my mom and I first met her for a consultation, we were immediately intrigued by her creative space filled with the most unique collection of vases, vintage birdcages, breathtaking arrangements of florals, and an endless array of other charming objects. We soon discovered that Lisa is not only an enormously talented artist, but also a kind-hearted and calming person. She was a welcome breath of fresh air amidst the ongoing stresses of wedding planning.

In stark contrast to other florists we met, Lisa provided a detailed, multi-page quote packet, including price ranges and photo examples, following our initial consultation. I was blown away by the professionalism of Lisa's proposal and she immediately gained my trust and appreciation. Her precise attention to detail continued throughout the entire process as she transformed my inspirations and ideas into something more amazing than I ever imagined possible. Lisa was also realistic and completely honest when it came to budget questions, and she employed innovative strategies to cut down costs without sacrificing my vision.

On the day of the wedding, other than seeing my groom, I was thrilled most of all with the absolutely spectacular florals that created an elegant and romantic setting for the entire day. I will cherish the memories and photos of the captivating, timeless florals at my wedding for the rest of my life. Even more extraordinary were the memories of collaborating with such an inspiring artist to create this shared vision.

Lisa from FloraBella did an AMAZING job! She was very easy to work with and the flowers were better than I could have imagined! I had very few flower ideas or preferences, and she went above and beyond. They were Gorgeous!
