We can’t speak highly enough of Sara and her work!! My husband and I didn’t really know what we wanted in terms of flowers, but over the course of 12 months, Sara got on the phone with us again and again as our vision kept on getting more and more refined. Finally, about 1 month out from the wedding, we knew what we wanted - and Sara picked up on it so quickly. I’ve never gushed over flowers before but oh my god when I saw my bouquet I couldn’t stop beaming. She absolutely nailed it. We didn’t have a wedding planner so we were really cobbling together our vision one piece at a time….and Sara brought it all together. She is also the kindest, sweetest person; when you’re in the throes of wedding planning, it’s pretty wonderful to have a phone call with a vendor that leaves you feeling calmer than you were before. One last thing - as far as florists in the tristate area, L&L was one of the most reasonably priced options we found!!

Sara is the BEST!!
Once I saw Lavender and Leaf’s work, I knew I had to have her at our wedding. From beginning to end, Sara was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was quick with communication, and the KINDEST soul ever. She understood our vision, and executed it even better than we could have ever imagined. She did a custom installation for our sweetheart table with a wooden cut out sign and it was the most photographed portion of our wedding! It was so beautiful. From my wedding bouquet to the table arrangements, everything was perfect. Our guests took the arrangements home and said they lasted for weeks! I absolutely cannot recommend Sara and her team enough for making our vision come to life. Thank you so much!!

Dream come True!
From the moment I first met Sara on the phone and after an hour and a half long initial conversation, I KNEW she had to do our wedding flowers!! Sara understood my floral vision and color palette from the get-go -- we talked through what flowers and decor would be needed for each part of the day and I felt like she totally knew exactly what I wanted (even with my limited knowledge of flowers/greenery + not knowing the proper names for any flowers!) She was extremely easy and fun to work with, providing a proposal just a few days after we first chatted, and following up throughout the wedding planning process to ensure our details/vision hadn't changed.
On the day of the wedding, everything looked BEAUTIFUL! I teared up as soon as I started walking down the aisle and saw our ceremony arch and ceremony barrels decorated with the flowers we had discussed! I was in love with my bouquet and my bridesmaids' bouquets and loved that Sara was able to tie blues into our color palette to accentuate the bridal party's navy dresses, vests + ties. The tables all looked perfect -- a beautiful mix of pillar candles and smaller flower arrangements in vases on some tables and larger arrangements on others -- having varying centerpieces/table decor was Sara's idea and I was so happy with how it turned out! What I loved about working with her was that she was totally receptive and on board with my ideas but also suggested quite a few of her own which made our tables and venue decor look even more elegant :)
Planning a wedding is stressful, but once we talked to and hired Sara I never once worried about how our flowers would turn out! I knew she'd put together beautiful arrangements for us and our guests have been raving about how stunning all our flowers and decor were! Highly recommend Lavender & Leaf for weddings at any type of venue! Thank you for making my vision a dream come true, Sara!

L&L is the absolute best
It was such a pleasure to work with Sara at Lavender & Leaf. She perfectly captured our vision and was so incredibly kind and responsive during the planning process. I didn't have a lot of room to expand our budget for florals, and Sara was not only understanding but also creative in helping to come up with ways to save money without sacrificing our vision. I would absolutely recommend Lavender & Leaf to anyone.

Gorgeous flowers - must have florist
Sara was beyond amazing to work with. She was recommended to us by our photographer (Sweet Alice Photography) and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She was the only florist we met with and knew this could be risky, but we instantly clicked with Sara. She was able to interpret our vision and put it into action.
Due to the unfortunate circumstances of the world, we had to move our wedding date and downsize significantly, but Sara was nothing but accommodating and understanding. She was very flexible with us, given all the last minute changes and delivered 100%.
Not only is Sara a great florist but she is also a kind person who truly cares about her craft and it shows in her work.

An absolute dream
We cannot recommend Lavender & Leaf enough. Sara was a dream to work with, and immediately understood our vision for the wedding before we could even articulate it ourselves. The floral arrangements were just perfect and transformed our otherwise backyard wedding into an absolute fairy tale. Everything from the boutonniere to the bridal bouquet was clearly assembled with love, care, and specifically for us. The details were breathtaking, and the way Sara repurposed the ceremony flowers for dinner was seamless. We’d gush more about Lavender & Leaf, but the pictures speak for themselves!

Absolutely stunning flowers!
Sara is unbelievably talented at what she does! I was drawn to Sara when I saw a photo of boutonnieres she had made with light blue delphinium. As someone who has always loved the color blue, I knew any florist that could incorporate that color palette was someone I wanted to work with. Sara and I spoke many times before the wedding, and she was so helpful in honing my vision on white with pops of blue into something really beautiful. Sara was so flexible and kind as we navigated postponing and downsizing my wedding. Our guests were blown away at how beautiful the reception space was, as well as the chuppah arrangement, where she was able to incorporate my husband's family's tallit. We had such a special day, and I would highly recommend Sara and Lavender and Leaf!

Great Enthusiasm!
Sara takes so much pride in her work and it really comes through in the quality of her bouquets and arrangements. I was looking for a late autumn almost wintry look, using white pumpkins and gourds and she delivered exactly what I'd been looking for. My vision for my bridal bouquet changed a little bit a few weeks ahead of my wedding (I fell in love with a bouquet I'd seen on Instagram) and she was so enthusiastic about adding it to her inspiration. I loved working with L&L and would contact her again for event decor.

Absolutely stunning flowers!!
Sara and Lavender & Leaf were amazing to work with. She was patient throughout our dozens of questions, changes, and suggestions as we crafted the perfect plan for our flowers. We had a tight budget and Sara was creative in finding ways to re-purpose bouquets (our bridesmaids bouquets became centerpieces) and supplement the tables with rustic greenery. Our flowers looked STUNNING on the day of and everybody commented on them! They were exactly what we envisioned, and all the tables looked perfect. We cannot recommend Lavender & Leaf more!

Best Florist EVER... Stunning Floral Artwork. Genius.
THIS SHOULD BE YOUR FLORIST! I can’t recommend Lavender & Leaf Designs enough. Stop looking for your florist. This is them. Sara is absolutely incredible- she creates more than flower arrangements… it’s art. Totally stunning. Sara responded immediately to our request for a florist. She sat with us & helped my husband & I get a real vision for our wedding. Her ideas were amazing & out of the box. She made sure that everything was totally representative of us & kept giving us amazing ideas. She helped us refine our color palette & introduced us to creative touches that we could never have dreamed of. Sara & her team were incredibly sweet, professional, & creative geniuses! She works with all kinds of couples & gave us the individual attention & direction that we needed. We wanted flower accents for the day that incorporated non traditional flowers & plants that would accent our other decorations. This company absolutely delivered beyond our expectations! They made two incredible & huge flower bouquets using head vases and columns for our ceremony isle. They also made arrangements using two sentimental vases for our sweetheart table. They created gorgeous boutonnieres for the guys in our ceremony using feathers, unique flowers, bright colors, & incorporated unique sentimental charms into them. For the women, Sara made gorgeous floral bracelets. They also put gorgeous floral accents & finishing touches throughout our event space that tied it all together & made the setting simply incredible. Her artistic eye is unmatched. She was incredibly professional & did not require lots of direction. It was very clear that she kept me & my husband in mind in everything that she did. Her team was professional & incredibly sweet & creative. They arrived early to our event, set up everything perfectly, and surpassed any expectations that we could have had. We received a ton of compliments for their arrangements from our guests & we couldn’t be happier with their work! Lavender & Leaf was priced great & provided us with so much more than flowers. Working w/ Sara helped us focus our color scheme & made our special day even more special. We can’t recommend them enough! If you are looking for an incredible, high-end, classy florist that provides exceptional service with a smile- this is them! Book Lavender & Leaf Designs now. You won’t regret it! We absolutely loved them. We took all the flowers home and still have them decorating our place! They used an incredible variety of plants and flowers that really made a huge impact at our event. They are simply amazing. We will be using Lavender & Leaf Designs for every future event we ever throw. So impressed. Simply amazing.
