Gregory was amazing and fantastic to work with!!! We were so confident working with him and not disappointed in any way. He did flowers at our house for a welcome party and table decor and candles for the rehearsal dinner at a different location Friday night He did all the urns and chair adornments for the ceremony venue, twelve unique but complimentary table arrangements for the reception, all the bouquets, boutonnières, corsages, and nosegays for the wedding party, a number of other table decorations for the cocktail hour, etc., and the flowers for the cake. All were beautiful and totally kept with the look that my daughter had described to him during their very first phone interview. We cannot recommend Gregory highly enough! You will be very lucky to be able to use his many many talents and skills!

Matched our vision, beautiful arrangements!
Gregory was fantastic to work with. We hired him for our wedding, and after a few ideas over the phone and some Pinterest ideas, he was able to provide us with flower arrangements that were even better than we imagined. We met him a few months before the wedding in his showroom and were very impressed with the time he spent with us, his professionalism, and the sample arrangement. The day of the wedding, we knew he was a vendor we didn't have to worry about. He was able to quickly adapt to last minute changes and we were extremely impressed with him. We would highly recommend him!

Sensitive and luxurious floral design that is from the heart.
What else can be said about Gregory except that he is truly an artisan in every sense of the word. We were on a search via every platform to try and find a local floral designer who could help us with our wedding at Wolftrap farm in Gordonsville, VA for an October 5th date. The search was based on finding someone who understood our shared desire to have something bespoke, locally foraged, locally grown, and unpretentious. We managed to secure a meeting with Gregory after I found him in a random search on Facebook (Thank goodness he is branching on to other platforms now) and set up a meeting on March 3rd when we went to the farm for the first time.
Gregory was prompt and kept his meeting commitments to us. We were greeted at the farm where the wedding was and he set foot immediately to understand our personalities. After asking us some questions he was able to fully understand the type wedding we were looking for. We didn't actually know it yet but we left the meeting with trust, some understanding, a huge hug, and also plenty more trust. We had a great vibe about Gregory and his desire to help us out.
We worked through the budgeting process with him quickly (a few days time) and told him what we needed and that we wanted things that he had grown in his beautiful garden 10 minutes away that were seasonal and things foraged from the farm. He quoted us for the tables as well as the bouquet because we had a simple idea. We also asked for a quick sketch of his table designs and he was able to accommodate us. The pricing was affordable and the process went smoothly. We were 7 months ahead of schedule so that certainly helped.
The time came when it was the week before and wedding week and we reached out to make sure we were all set. We made some last minute table adjustments 2+ weeks ahead of time to give him and his team time to adjust and not waste anything or have us be charged for things we can't use.
Gregory arrived on the Friday before the wedding in person and the centerpieces were one of the most exquisite compositions we had ever seen. Unlike most floral arrangements Gregory took the time to honor the beauty of the seasons changing and local plants as well as whatever state they were in. The centerpieces became one with the tables and each one was completely unique in arrangement, giving unique style to every table but a cohesive arrangement to the whole venue.
It is hard to put into words how moving the art that Gregory gave us for our wedding but we were awestruck by his motivation and creativity to deliver the best. It was from the heart in every way. Thank you :)
Even on the day of the arrangements received a freshen but they didn't really require them because they were local and seasonal cuts so they were much more hardy than your run of the mill arrangements.
We have no regrets and can highly and glowingly recommend Gregory Britt Designs to anyone looking for a wedding to be special and with an extra touch that gives you confidence in leaving them in charge of what they know best!
