Flowers have been an essential part of various types of events. Different flowers have different meanings: lilies for virtue, tulips for love, irises for warmth and affection and a range of emotions and values for the many different colors of roses. By working with top notch distributors I have access to an endless array of florals from simple elegance to exotic beauties. They help set the tone to any event. I specialize in the budget that works for you because my gift is setting your vision that is never out of reach.

A sincere thank you for your consideration.

was a waste of time

I set up a consultation online with Talana because I saw her work and the reviews and everything looked great. The day before my consultation I was running errands and got a call saying she will see us in a few hours. I was confused because I set my consultation for the next day so I called. She set it on the wrong day but I offered to come at that time anyways because she had prepared everything and I let it slide. I went to the consultation and everything went well. I thought her cakes tasted and looked great. I didn't see any examples of the florals but they probably would have been great too. A few days later she emailed the pricing over. I had a few questions so I sent her a message. A week went by and I didn't receive a response. I sent two follow up emails a bit later making sure everything was okay. Nothing. Overall, i'm upset that the vendor decided to just not respond to me because I was excited about her.

Gorgeous, delicious cake AND stunning florals!

Talana was one of the bakers utilized by my wedding venue for the wedding cake. I reached out to her to schedule a tasting and she was very responsive. Her cakes were delicious! And she even made a bonus sample because it was similar to what I had chosen and very popular. So we hammer out the details of what I want in a wedding cake etc. etc. At this point I know she does flowers as well but I've already made arrangements with a florist that has an exceptional reputation in the area. Unfortunately, it became clear that he was also exceptionally disorganized and couldn't keep the details of my wedding straight. I would e-mail him a list of how many of everything I needed and in what colors and his e-mail response reflected something completely different. After many such interactions, I panicked and maybe 3 weeks before my wedding reached out to Talana. She was able to accommodate what I needed, she was communicative and she instilled confidence. When the wedding rolled around the cake was absolutely stunning and the flowers were gorgeous. Everyone commented on how delicious the cake was and how beautiful all the flowers were. She even gave us an extra boutonniere in case we needed it. I cannot rave enough about the quality of her work and how impressed I was with her. I very much appreciate her talent and professionalism.

Stop searching for a planner- You've found her!

Greetings brides to be!

My review is coming SUPER late, and I don’t want to owe an apology to Talana Maria’s for that. However, I am absolutely thrilled to write this review and I do hope it helps future couples in their upcoming decision making!

Initial Consultation
Talana is the most bubbly and warm person you will possibly ever meet when it comes to wedding planning. Our first meeting was Professional, informative, successful. You will find that the tone of your planning will begin after your first initial meeting. We discussed price and my wedding concepts (provided by myself) during this meeting. After we parted I absolutely knew I needed her by my side.

Planning
Planning with the help of Talana Maria is fun, effortless and of course at times a little hectic with normal Bride stresses. My biggest compliment is that she has your back 100%. There were things I required from my venue that were not offered and together we made it happen. Talana absolutely made me feel like I was her only client. That’s how passionate she is about her Brides.
In addition, we happened to have the same style and agreed on my vision through and through. If you are a rustic/Autumn/DIY bride, she is your go to! She has an amazing style and will bring ideas to your vision without trumping them.
My only take-away for future brides- make sure there is sufficient/completed documentation between yourself and Talana Maria. There were a few minor misses on the day of that were not captured, however not documented (only discussions via email).

Décor
Talana Maria has the most beautiful pieces to help display flowers, desserts, tables, lanterns etc. She was very generous to allow me to use some of her very special pieces that completely captured the rustic vision I had. My bridesmaid bouquet we nestled on top of her vintage inspired lantern and I cannot stress enough how obsessed I am with how they came out. I get compliments all the time…a year later.

Flowers, Cake and Deserts
Now, this is where it went from great to perfection. My flowers were everything. I’m getting goosebumps just thinking about them. First, she captured the look of my florals To. The. Tee! Throughout the process, we shared text messages of pictures and suggestions. I was even given photos while she was creating the bouquets. Zero guessing as to how they will show up, because she invites you in her process. Day of my flowers were fresh, vibrant and best of all stunning. The Arbor flowers were stunning. The bridal party florals were stunning. And my table arrangements were absolutely breathtaking. Your guest will fight over the center pieces, guaranteed.

The cake and deserts were delicious AND beautiful. I loved my time with Talana during our cake tasting and she has an abundance of flavors to choose from. Everything was delicious and super affordable. Baking is definitely Talana Maria’s strong suit and it showed. I’ve gotten rave reviews for all the deserts. Also, there were some odd ideas that I had (for example, black candied apples LOL), and with no hesitation- made it happen. If you have a vision for your deserts she will meet it.

A Bride’s Best Friend
Lastly Talana makes you feel special. I must admit I have lost my cool a few times and went Bridezilla. She does not only calm stressful situations, but when she says she’ll make it right, she is a woman of her word. She is very professional at the same time so friendly you would have thought you’ve known her for years. She is very responsive and knowledgeable. I can’t tell you how privileged I am to have worked with her.

A year later I’m still swooning- many thanks from the Wests Talana!
