My fiancé and I have hired Karen as a florist and also as our wedding planner. I just want to say that Karen is not only such a wonderful human being but has helped us with everything you can think of to make our special day spectacular. Day and night she has answered our texts, emails, and calls to help us with everything that we could possibly need. I can't imagine having a better person to work with and feel so blessed to have her as a part of our wedding! Will recommend her to absolutely EVERYONE that I know!

I did most of the planning for my wedding myself, and because my wedding was smaller (~30 people) and all outdoors, I didn't need many flowers - I thought this would mean finding a florist on my budget would be pretty simple. Unfortunately I was very mistaken on that - and found out many florists in CO will not consider projects under a certain budget. This lead to a lot of rejections, and the shops who were close to my budget would leave me waiting for a week or more at a time for a response. Basically - flowers became a very stressful part of my planning process.

I've used Thumbtack many times before for housework/electrical, etc, and thought it might be worth a try for a wedding florist. Luckily - Karen at Garden Path Co responded the same day, and was very attentive to what I wanted - all within my budget!

You probably need to be a bride to understand the relief it is when you find a great vendor - almost everything during planning increases or adds to your stress, and Karen immediately took so much stress off my plate. She got on the phone with me and spent over an hour of her time listening to what I wanted, making recommendations - and even gave me other great vendors to look at.

In my budget ($1500 and under), every florist refused to come up to my venue to set up - so I pretty much knew I was picking up my flowers and going to have to decorate myself. Karen offered to make the 2-3 hr drive to set them up myself so I wouldn't have to worry about it. Ultimately I didn't end up needing her to do that because a friend of mine offered to set the flowers up for me, but it was so appreciated she was willing to do that!

I also had wanted a floral garland for a wedding arch, and had been told that wasn't possible without paying for flower delivery and setup. I found myself trying to accept cutting out the wedding arch, flowers for my cake, and to tuck into my hair to try and cut back costs.

Garden Path worked with me to make sure I had extra flowers for my hair, they let me borrow their wildflower vases at no extra cost (everyone else was charging $10+ per vase rental ontop of the flower costs), and they made me a beautiful garland for my arch and supplies to hang it up myself. This worked out perfectly, and my friend was able to hang up the garland with just some nails and garden wire the morning of the wedding.

The flowers the day of were so beautiful and really brought the wedding together - it was mountain wildflower inspired, and the mix of wildflowers and beautiful arrangements were the perfect touch to our outdoor wedding. I am so happy with how it turned out, and really can't thank Karen enough for making my vision come true without having to compromise!

Karen at Garden Path Co. was not only our florist but our wedding planner. Her flowers were absolutely beautiful and she got my vision for the wedding completely on the dot! So beautiful! She also had great connections to other vendors that we ended up using on our wedding day.
