Perfect floral arrangement highly recommend

Mel worked with us through every change in the floral arrangement process. She worked wonderfully with our coordinator, Marielena from Blue Veil Events to add the perfect touch of simplicity and beauty to our wedding that we were looking for. Her diligence in making sure everybody detail was carved out perfectly really helped decrease the stress in planning the florals. She provided the flower girl basket and bud vases as a part of the contract and thank goodness she did. She really brought our vision to life with elegance. We did not order too many florals but she worked with us to make sure everything was filled out thin our budget and a week later, my home is still decorated with fresh flowers from the venue. I HIGHLY recommend Mel for your floral arrangements for your wedding!

Perfection

Melanie of Mystical Rose Flowers wonderful to work with. She listened carefully to what type of flowers and the design style my daughter wanted for bouquets and centerpieces and ceremony arch for her wedding. She showed us various options and discussed the best options for us for the time of year we would need them. I was clear to me when we first met that she really knows her flowers and how different flowers will look when paired together. The proof of her knowledge and artistic skill was evident when she put together flowers which were unbelievably beautiful. They were the perfect match for my daughter's style, the wedding venue and time of year.

Words and to be honest, pictures can't do justice to how lovely they were. We were able to bring home many of the bridesmaids bouquets and enjoy them for a full week before we reluctantly composted them.

On another happy note, we made a slight change to our original contract/order about 2 1/2 weeks before the wedding and we received a refund since not as many flowers were actually ordered. Her honesty is refreshing.

I highly recommend Melanie for flowers for any event.

Mel did an absolutely fantastic job for the flowers or our wedding. The bouquets were simply stunning and the table arrangements perfect! I sent Mel some ideas from Pinterest and she took them and made exactly what I was picturing for our special day. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Mel as she made the entire process easy and simple and was one less thing that I had to worry about. She is a gem and I would highly recommend her to any bride!

I had a great experience with Mel as my florist! She made my bridal bouquet, my bridesmaid bouquets and a few corsages. She was very responsive and really worked with me to help me stay with in my budget and pick out my dream flowers. She was patient with me as I went back and forth until we found the perfect combination. The final results were just perfect, she did a wonderful job! And all that great service for such a reasonable price. I really appreciate how great and easy she made this part of the wedding planning process.

Mel did an outstanding job with my bouquet and the flowers for the wedding party. From the initial telephone consult, she was patient and helpful in discussing different flower types and colors to match my vision. She delivered them to my house the day before the wedding with tips on how to keep them fresh for the big day! The arrangements were well done and the flowers lasted all day with no wilting. I would highly recommend Mel for your big day!

Melanie's flowers for my wedding were gorgeous. I showed her my Pinterest board and she told me about the different flowers, their cost and availability. When I saw the bouquets I was super excited, they were exactly what I was looking for, for less than half the price of other vendors. It was also great to be able to support a small home based businesswoman!

Working with Mel from Mystical Rose Flowers was awesome! I came to her with a vision of exactly what we wanted for the wedding, and she made it happen. By far the best priced florist I could have worked with. We bought vases off a wholesaler website for her to set up. Mel is so sweet and kind, and clearly loves her job. She is enormously talented, the centerpieces looked even better than the Pinterest photos that I gave her! I would absolutely recommend :-)

Melanie has been a delight to work with so far! She has been great about conversing with me via email, Pinterest, and phone to get a good picture of what I envision as my perfect wedding flowers! She has also been amazing about working within my very small budget to create my vision. Her passion for what she does and making weddings affordable for all brides is so wonderful. I can't wait to see the final product on my wedding day!
