Gorgeous flowers, amazing experience
I absolutely loved working with Nancy for our wedding flowers. She was so responsive and helpful throughout the process. She was able to stay within a very reasonable budget and make absolutely gorgeous bouquets and the most stunning swag for the trees that my husband and I got married in front of. I am so happy that we found Nancy for our wedding day and would absolutely recommend her.

We love nancy!
Nancy was the florist at our 7/10/22 wedding, and she made it look like an absolute dream! I will admit that flowers were NOT our biggest priority in terms of budget, and Nancy was great at working with our budget to get us what we wanted. We mostly did greenery + baby's breath, and everything looked stunning. She even set up all of our candles (200+). Nancy was so sweet and very responsive. I trusted her to make everything look great and cohesive, and despite minimal direction from me, she pulled it off better than I could've imagined!! In a time when some florists are charging $5-$10k minimum for florals, Nancy was a breathe of fresh air! 10/10 recommend!!

Elegant and Classy
Nancy was wonderful to work with in creating the florals for our August wedding at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. I know flowers aren't always at the top of everyone's list, but they were one of the more important things to me when it came to decor. We wanted an elegant feel with all white flowers and greenery mixed in and a tropical twist. She absolutely nailed it! Despite rising prices due to shipping and flower shortages, she was still able to keep us within our anticipated budget without having to sacrifice the overall look. My bridal bouquet and the bridesmaids bouquets exceeded my expectations. On top of all that, she was so kind and wonderful to communicate with!

Gorgeous Flowers
We had some wild weather on our wedding day, but the floral garland and large arrangements stayed put, and were gorgeous when the sun came out and we were able to have the ceremony. The bouquets were perfect, and she incorporated peonies (my favorite flower) into both my bouquet and my sisters bouquets (my MOH).

Gorgeous and Grateful
Nancy and Sweetbay Florists created bouquets that literally brought my mom and I to tears (happy tears!) on the wedding day. From the beginning, Nancy's communication was impeccable and she was incredibly helpful in picking out the details of the floral arrangements. Her expertise and service made her feel like she knew the vision for my wedding before I even said anything. We are so incredibly grateful for her gorgeous fall bouquets and all her guidance to make our rustic wedding come to life.

Sweet Bay Flowers Envisioned Our Flowers Perfectly!
Nancy, at Sweet Bay Flowers, was responsive and attentive from the onset. She asked pertinent questions and offered suggestions that fit perfectly with what we had envisioned for our daughter's wedding!
While we lived a considerable distance apart, Nancy expertly advised us of what we would need for the Wedding Ceremony and reception afterwards. She provided suggestions for flowers that were in season, and matched both in color and visual appeal to what we had hoped for.
Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process!
Nancy's prices were better than most we spoke with, and she worked within our budget to create a spectacular array of flowers.
Nancy even suggested ways that flowers used for the ceremony could be transposed to entirely different center pieces for the reception.
As my daughter stated, " Somehow, you have taken what I wished for and made it come true!".
We would highly recommend Sweet Bay for your wedding flowers!

Beautiful flowers and great florist!
I found Nancy online and after a few emails I went to for a meeting with her at her studio. She was so nice and did a great job of helping me with my ‘vision’ for the wedding. She was super friendly and ultimately provided awesome flowers for our wedding. I definitely recommend!
