Beautiful flowers from a beloved local establishment

We were so delighted to have Matteson’s provide beautiful cut stems, corsages, boutonnières, and the bridal bouquet and groom flower pocket for our wedding! We have been using Matteson’s for local flower delivery for many years and trust their sense of floral design. They worked with us from an inspiration board and created some truly beautiful pieces for us. They were also very communicative with our planner to ensure delivery was handled efficiently on the day of the wedding, across where we were staying and the venue. They were able to make magic within our budget that fit our vision!

Highly recommend!

Leah at Matteson's Florist did all the flowers for my wedding (bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, arrangements for the arch and aisles for the ceremony) and everything was absolutely beautiful!!! Right from the beginning she was great to work with. I had booked her as my vendor over a year before my wedding so at that point I didn't really have a specific idea of what I wanted to do with the flowers, but throughout the planning process I would send her pictures of things I liked and give her ideas of what look I was going for and she was so helpful and patient with me the whole time. Because of the great communication throughout, I trusted everything would turn out great and never once stressed about the flowers, and on the day of the wedding, everything turned out perfectly! I would highly recommend Matteson's Florist to anyone!

Leah was absolutely phenomenal! From the very beginning I knew that she was the one that we would choose to do our floral arrangements for our wedding. She asked all of the right questions to ensure she was able to adequately portray our vision. As soon as I saw the flowers on our wedding day I broke out in happy tears! She went above and beyond what I had imagined! Everything was flawless and every detail thought of and taken care of. I would highly recommend using Matteson's for your wedding floral or any other floral needs! Thanks again Leah and team!

Leah at Matteson's Florist did the bouquet and boutonnieres for my wedding. All were beautiful and exactly what I envisioned. Most importantly, since I had no idea what I wanted when I walked into her shop, I appreciate that she was very patient and helpful as I worked through trying to figure out exactly what I wanted. I would definitely make her shop my first stop if I ever needed flowers again!!

We had the pleasure of having Leah at Matteson's Florist provide the flowers for our wedding. It is a complete understatement to say that they turned out beautifully. I was actually in awe when took at look at what she had done... it was STUNNING! I am so grateful for all the effort that was put into making everything perfect. I could not have asked for anything more than what was there. Do not hesitate to book Matteson's for any of your floral needs, thank you Leah you made my day!!!!

Leah was amazing to work with! She came to the rescue after our original florist canceled a month before the wedding. The arrangements were exactly what I had imagined, the perfect colors and blooms. My bouquet was flawless and is the star of our wedding photos. I really enjoyed working with Leah at Matteson's and hope I can use them again in the future!

Leah was AWESOME. She was more than just our florist. She turned into our designer/florist. Assisting in everything from the table layout, the table settings, and flower arrangements. She came with us to our second venue meeting and I had all the trust in the world to let her do her thing. We advised her of the decor we had available and she for sure took advantage of it and ran with it. At the end of the meeting, I told my wife, "She's gonna set it off!" She totally exceeded our expectations. Leah and her team dedicated the whole day to us. First setting up the isles, altar, and Corsages/Boutonnieres at the Church in Escondido then to the venue in San Marcos to "TURN UP!" the whole reception floor with candelabras, tall beautiful center pieces, and flower arrangements throughout the whole venue. With only a few hours given for set-up, her and the Matterson's team gave my bride and I a wedding to never forget. She knew our style. Along with her vision and and expertise her final set up was absolutely breathtaking. Leah, thank you so much for everything!

Leah and her team did an outstanding job at our wedding. We had two ceremonies, Catholic ceremony in the morning then Twin Oaks Estates ceremony later in the afternoon. They did the arrangements at the church and then moved them to the venue and reused many of the arrangements.
They were well prepared to transition from one place to another and complete setting up the place in a timely manner, and more importantly in attractive ways. We received numerous complements and they exceeded our expectations in all areas.
Leah was hands on... personally involved, and made everything look magical with amazing personal touches. I would recommend Matteson's Florist to any and everyone and confident they will go above and beyond to make your event that much more phenomenal.

Leah at Matteson's Flowers, from the start, was very welcoming and friendly. We were from out of town and she always took the time for us when we were coming to town. She made good suggestions, but also listened to what the bride's vision was for her wedding. On the wedding day the flowers were perfect! We were so happy with the final outcome. It was so worth all of the time and money spent. They even found a flower, that was not in season, because it was the bride's dream to have one in her bridal bouquet. They went the extra mile in every way. Do not go any where else....you will not be disappointed.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
