Thank you, Nancy!

Nancy was great to work with, and I would recommend Little River Floral Farm to anyone! Throughout the process, she was very response and totally understood our needs. We really didn’t have too strong of a vision (mostly just general color scheme), but what she created for us could not have been more perfect. It was so special to have these farm-fresh flowers at our wedding.

We also really appreciated how respectful of our budget she was and how she helped us best choose the type of flowers, arrangement size, etc. to best accommodate it. We had briefly considered DIYing all or some of our flowers to cut down on cost, but in the end, we were so thankful to have Nancy plan, arrange, deliver, and set-up the flowers — definitely prevented a lot of potential last-minute stress, and the floral reveal was one of my favorite moments of the wedding! Thank you, Nancy!

So happy! I couldn’t have asked for anything more beautiful!

My fiancé and I decided to plan a wedding in 6 weeks or less and needed to find someone who could provide us with flowers. A friend who is getting married in the fall suggested I contact Nancy. Her flower farm was local which was a bonus! She was responsive and able to work with our short time frame, I wasn’t certain what to expect as we had only communicated via email but was blown away when I arrived to pick up my flowers. Nancy exceeded my expectations and then some! I cannot thank her enough for taking on my project on short notice and creating such beautiful bouquets and boutonnières for my wedding ceremony! Thank you so much for your help!!

Basically a mind reader

Working with Nancy was such an easy, thoughtful experience. I had a pretty vague vision (mostly just colors) of what I wanted for my table decorations and bouquets, and she totally rolled with it. She included everything I asked for, searched for out-of-season flowers for me, and absolutely nailed our Maine vibe, including lots of local and wild flowers. She was easy to contact, flexible as we made some last minute changes to table numbers, and most of all, she created absolutely stunning table garlands and bouquets. I was so pleased and I would highly recommend working with her to anyone planning their wedding!

Beautiful & Full Wedding Flowers

We were married on August 24, 2019, at an outdoor venue in Saco, Maine. Nancy’s flowers were absolutely beautiful. I emailed her some examples of what I liked and, while what she created wasn’t exactly what I had showed her, the flowers turned out even more beautiful than what I had hoped for. Nancy made for us table garlands, large floor pieces for the ceremony and reception entrances, bouquets from myself and my bridesmaids, hanging jars with flowers to line the aisle, boutonnieres, and corsages. They were all so full, with many different flowers that went together really well. They also drew from the bridesmaids’ dresses while having some drastic undertones that made the arrangements pop. Everyone commented on how beautiful the flowers were and the flowers looked amazing in our pictures. Nancy also had a lot of great ideas based on her experience, which was helpful for someone who hasn’t been to many weddings. Overall, I am really happy that Nancy did our flowers and I highly recommend her to other couples.

wedding flowers from Little River Flower Farm in Buxton, Maine

Nancy and her staff at Little River were wonderful to work with. The flowers we received were outstanding in their color, freshness, and variety - stems were cut long and easy to work with (we ordered some buckets to work on arrangements as well as flowers for the arbor and bouquet). We are very happy with our experience and strongly recommend you check out Little River for your event. Prices were very reasonable and Nancy took a personal interest in our order.

Absolutely Stunning!!!

My son and daughter -in-law were married this past weekend and the flowers were done by Little River Flower Farm..... They were stunning-full and lush and everywhere!!! The colors were gorgeous and the garland on the table was absolutely beautiful!!!! Nancy did a terrific job and my daughter-in -law was very pleased. In fact Nancy's price was a much better value than I thought given the amount and beauty of these flowers!!!! PS The bridal bouquets were fabulous!!!!

Beautiful work!

Nancy made all of the bouquets and boutonnières for my wedding this past June. When I first reached out to her about my desire to incorporate succulents into my big day instead of flowers, I was unsure if she could make my vision a reality. However, she was so accommodating and patient throughout the entire process! Nancy created my DREAM succulent bouquet and I couldn’t be happier. I received so many compliments on it. The bouts and bridesmaids bouquets were also gorgeous! I cannot recommend Nancy and LRFF enough! ❤️

Nancy at little River Flower Farm was amazing. I didn't really have any vision at all for my flowers, but what Nancy created was exactly perfect for me and the venue. The bouquets were absolutely gorgeous, and I completely fell in love with the arrangements she made for the barrels and vases. Nancy was always so easy and pleasant to a work with. I couldn't recommend Little River Flower Farm more.

I can't say enough amazing things about LIttle River Flower Farm and Nancy for my wedding flowers. I was an out of state, destination wedding bride and finding a florist was tricky. Add getting married on an island and needing 20+ table arrangements to come via ferry to the mix but LRFF was the answer! Nancy asked for photos of arrangements I liked, discussed budget and what would be in season. I gave Nancy a few ideas but overall gave her free range and the arrangements were the most gorgeous flowers I've ever seen. She exceeded all my expectations. I would have paid over double the amount had I gone with anyone else. Thank you Nancy and LRFF, so many people complimented how gorgeous all the arrangements were!
