Gorgeous, customized design beyond expectations

Our wedding was small and non traditional but I still wanted beautiful florals to liven up the space. Karen was responsive and flexible. She listened to my needs and gave us a quote that was fair and customized to what we needed. I appreciated that I didn't have to order "off the shelf" like at other florists for smaller events. She still created a custom plan for our special day. When my partner decided to wear a color last minute that did not match the original color scheme, Karen and her team pivoted a week before to add in highlights so that the florals complimented his suit accents. I was blown away by the results - every flower I mentioned that I loved was incorporated. Everyone at the event kept complimenting how gorgeous the flowers were. They were beyond all of my expectations and a highlight of the whole event!

Flowers at 38 - Wedding Floral Review

I cannot recommend Flowers at 38 highly enough for anyone planning their wedding flowers! From start to finish, Karen was absolutely amazing. She guided me through the flower selection process, ensuring that everything stayed within the price range I was comfortable with, without compromising on quality or beauty.

Karen truly brought my vision of Elegance & Romance meets Old-World Charm to life. She absolutely nailed the flower selection and color scheme, getting every detail perfect. My bouquet? Beyond words—exactly what I dreamed of. My bridesmaids' bouquets were equally stunning, and the reception flowers, especially the fireplace arrangement, were incredible. Every piece was more beautiful than I could have imagined.

If you're looking for a floral team that will bring your wedding vision to life and exceed your expectations, Flowers at 38 is the way to go!

Beautiful Wedding Arrangements

Phillipa and Karen immediately understood my vision and delivered gorgeous florals, altar arrangements, and table pieces for our wedding. The variety and interest within the bouquets was so fun and I kept noticing new varieties throughout the night. The arrangements felt special and unique- and were full and made a statement. They were always communicative and responsive. Highly recommend!

Look No Further – The Most Enchanting Floral Design Ever

Look no further - these are truly the pros. We worked with Karen at Flowers at 38 to bring our vision of an enchanting, intimate wedding to life. Karen was incredibly patient as we changed our color palettes for three different spaces.

Flowers at 38 is very transparent on pricing from the beginning so there are no surprises - they develop an initial contract with you and then you adjust as you add or subtract things. Karen also did a super helpful walkthrough with us as well and offered her expertise and design eye when we asked for help. I also appreciated how she was never trying to push anything on us - in fact, she even had some suggestions in case we wanted to save on costs. For example, she suggested repurposing some of our ceremony arrangements to our reception area (we put some in a bathroom and I swear it was the most beautiful thing ever!).

The flowers were just breathtaking - they were so fresh, so beautiful - the arrangements were perfect -- it is art. In our ceremony space we had a broken arch that meant a lot to us because the flowers in them had special symbolic meaning to us. Karen gave us everything we asked for - it was more beautiful than I could have imagined. I fell in so much love with the floral design at our wedding, I had a hard time leaving the space when it was over (and I still miss it).

Flowers at 38 also has an incredible, hardworking team that are truly part of your event (but do everything so swiftly and quietly you don't even know they are there). They break floral arrangements down, repurpose, and then take everything away at the end of the evening.

At first glance, investing in floral for a wedding might seem expensive, but the attention to detail, design, fresh flowers, and labor that went in to all of this, makes this investment with Flowers at 38 well worth it.

Also bonus: if you don't want to or can't keep your flowers, they will donate what they can to shelters!

Gorgeous floral designs

Philippa and her team are the best in the business - they’ve done both our wedding and another family member’s! They helped to make our floral vision a reality and everything they put together looked gorgeous. They were great to work with and offered wonderful insights and suggestions that helped really make things pop. We were in awe of how beautiful it looked and cannot recommend them enough!

Exceptional wedding florist!

Philippa was absolutely wonderful to work with! From our first meeting until the wedding day, she made the entire process of choosing our floral arrangements so fun and easy. She is very responsive and really listened to my vision and made my wedding dreams come true! On the day of the wedding, when we decided to take photos during the surprising snow storm, she created a second bouquet for me to take outside in order to preserve the one I would walk down the aisle with. Her warmth, kindness, and love for what she does comes out in every way and I would love the opportunity to work with her again in the future! She truly goes above and beyond!

Spectacular Flowers

Philippa and her team did the flowers for our wedding and they were stunning beyond measure. Floral design is truly an art form and Philippa is a giant within the industry. We wanted lush, seasonal, autumn florals and she delivered 100%.

Fall flowers with Philippa

Philippa and her team are excellent. Our wedding flowers were all we could’ve wanted and more. She was able to take our vision and turn it into something stunning. We were so happy with how it all turned out. She was able to work quickly when we realized were short two boutonnières to ensure we had all we needed. We highly recommend her! I’ve never seen more beautiful arrangements!

Highly recommend

Philippa was wonderful to work with and very responsive throughout the process. She was respectful of our relatively small floral budget while still creating absolutely stunning bouquets and arrangements. We were so happy with how our flowers turned out, and they handled the logistics for the day of the wedding without a problem.

Everything I wanted

Philippa did such an amazing job. She's very knowledgeable and will guide you based on your budget. I LOVED my bouquet. Instead of a standing arch we had flowers arched on the wall. It was amazing. I loved all of it and can't wait to see it all again when I get my wedding pictures.
