We didn’t give Natalie a whole lot of detail or ideas during our initial meeting. We had a color scheme and a general sense of what would complement our venue, but we still weren’t sure what exactly we were looking for. Our initial requests to Natalie were rather bland as we were hoping we would just “know it when we saw it.”
Fortunately, Natalie is a master! She has an engaging personality and vast knowledge of her craft…she is naturally gifted, encouraging us to brainstorm and making suggestions as she knew what questions to ask. We gave her a wedding invitation with our wedding colors and showed her the venue online. That was all she needed to truly create the wedding of our dreams. She elevated the atmosphere and overall feel of our wedding with some of the most beautiful arrangements we’ve ever seen. Her talent knows no bounds. We even learned we had several new favorite flowers! Choosing Francos as our florist was one of the best decisions we madej for our wedding. Natalie was the best part of working with them. Highly recommend.

Natalia was amazing and easy to work with. She make my flower vision come to life. Our wedding flowers were even more beautiful than I imagined. Our flowers lasted 2 weeks after our wedding. We got so many compliments on all the flower arrangements. They were reasonable prices and fair. I will not go to anyone else for flowers. They are the best!

We learned of Franco's Flowers through our friends who were getting married a few months before us. Almost every other florist quoted me between $4K-$6K for flowers. When I met Natalia, I knew she understood my vision for what I wanted at my wedding. Natalia was easy and SO pleasant to work with throughout the whole process. ALL of my guests commented on how beautiful the flowers were, and I agree. The venue and catering coordinators also asked who had done the flowers because they loved them too! I will always go to Franco's Flowers from now on!

I got tons of roses, sunflowers, daisies, succulents and other greenery for a great price! Everything came freshly cut and lasted well. My wedding was the morning after Thanksgiving, so I had to pick them up the Wednesday before. I was afraid they would look wilty and dying, but they held up well and looked beautiful. They allow you to get the amount you want of a varied kind for a great price, and ended up being more economical than Costco or big retailers.

Helped us find a great deal on all of our flowers, and made all of our bridal bouquets beautiful. Prices that compare with the flower mart in la, with better service!

Karen is a true artist when it comes to flowers. She perfectly captured the spirit of our wedding and somehow came up with designs that far surpassed any picture I showed her! We did not have a large budget for our wedding, and our flower budget was particularly small. I went in to Franco's initially thinking that I would buy the flowers there and arrange them myself, but Karen worked with me to accommodate our budget, and I cannot believe the value of what she created with our limited budget! If you are thinking of arranging your own wedding flowers to cut costs, talk to Karen first! I am so happy that I had gorgeous, artistic arrangements, bouquets, and boutonnieres that were clearly made by a professional instead of DIY gone wrong. Karen is so intuitive and understood immediately the look and feel that I wanted, and she brought that vision to reality for a fraction of what most florists would charge!

My flowers were absolutely gorgeous! I am still receiving compliments about my flowers. I worked with Karen, who handles all of the wedding flowers. I honestly did not know what my arrangements would look like... I told her I wanted purple and green, and she made it happen. From the ceremony flowers, to the centerpieces, bouquets, corsages, and boutonnieres, my flowers turned out AMAZING. My only complaint would be the charge for delivery, although I did agree to it, I felt it was a bit steep. But, a small price to pay for an amazing job. Karen had great ideas, and sent me photos via text message as she was creating my arrangements so I could say yay or nay. Loved her and Franco's. I would definitely recommend.

Karen at Franco's flowers is very talented. I had a vision for my wedding, but she executed it beyond my expectations. Definitely the best price you'll find in town.

All I can say is WOW. I worked with Karen Crawford at Franco's off Leucadia Blvd. in Encinitas. Karen is SO creative! We met a couple times and talked several times via telephone and text. She surpassed my expectations and at an exceptional price! I never expected to have such a beautiful ceremony and reception full of beautiful flowers, but Karen went above and beyond! She is so detailed and dedicated to what she does! I received so many compliments, and I want everyone to know that Franco's and Karen rocked!

Karen at Franco's Flowers can sure deliver!! When planning our wedding, we really didn't have any idea what kind of flowers we wanted for our wedding. The only thing I knew was that I wanted succulents in my bridal bouquet. Karen made some great suggestions of types of flowers that would go great together to give our wedding a rustic chic feel we were going for. The best part was, we gave her our budget and she totally worked within everything! We used manzanita branches for half of our centerpieces and she told us it was super easy to put together that we could do it ourselves if we wanted to save on cost! She showed us how to tie the succulents onto the branches, fill the boxes with moss, stuck some more succulents on the bottom and VOILA! beautiful rustic DIY centerpiece! and that is exactly what we did! it was so easy and turned out BEAUTIFULLY! I love how honest Karen is and how she prides herself in her work! She even told us a few days before the wedding that she was concerned the hydrangeas wouldn't stand the San Diego heat (our wedding was outdoors) and recommended other choices. Everything was amazing, my bouquet and the bridesmaids bouquets turned out SO PERFECT and was exactly what I imagined them to be. Love Karen, Love Franco's!!
