Gorgeous wedding flowers!
I was obsessed with my bridal bouquet and my wedding day flowers! Julia, Lindsay and team nailed the flowers for my wedding in July in Brooklyn. My flowers were gorgeous big blooms of pink, peach, and coral peonies, roses, dahlia and other complimentary flowers. I kid you not, when I left for my honeymoon a day after my wedding, it actually made me sad that it cut short the time I'd have to admire the table arrangements I had brought home from my wedding. I was jealous of my guests who took home bud vases and got to enjoy them for longer! Truly, these flowers were stunning.
I am a person who likes to plan out every detail of something and know to the greatest degree of certainty how something will turn out. Because of this, I found envisioning my wedding flowers to be one of the more difficult and anxiety inducing things in my wedding planning. Unlike a wedding dress or invitation, the final product of your wedding flowers is not something you will ever fully see until it is executed on your actual wedding day. But, if you are like me, then you are in good hands with Julia Testa. During the planning process, her team creates a mood board that shows the types of flowers and colors that will be used for your vision. They take detailed notes and include them on your inventory-- anything can be revised, taken away or added up until a few weeks prior to your wedding.
Julia and her team are also very responsive to emails. I even asked them questions about table runners that I had obtained on my own and they were happy to give well-thought out feedback on which color and style would coordinate best with my flowers.
The most helpful thing, though, was two days before my wedding, Julia emailed me a mock-up photo of my bridal bouquet from the shop and asked for my feedback. It was skewing a bit more white than I had envisioned so I responded to Julia by more specifically referencing an inspo photo on my mood board and letting her know that I'd like something a bit closer to that picture with bigger blooms and pops of colors. Julia responded no problem and within a few hours she sent me a revised mock-up photo that was right on the money. This interaction put me at ease and actually made me even more excited to see my flowers. I really appreciated Julia giving me the opportunity to see what my bouquet would look like and offer my thoughts before everything was finalized.
You will be in good hands with Julia Testa!
