Erbez Wedding
Vika popped up on my instagram feed back in the early stages of wedding planning. No matter how much I tried, I couldn’t get the florals on her feed out of my head. It all timed out and Vika was available and I couldn’t have been more excited. Vika took my vision and made it a reality! I could not have been more pleased with how the florals turned out. They absolutely took my breath away and my guests breath away. People continue to say how beautiful they were and how much they transformed the space. Vika made things so easy. We had one phone call where I sent her pictures of what I was thinking and then one check in call and that was it! It was one thing I didn’t have to worry about throughout the whole wedding planning process and I was so grateful for that. On the day of the wedding, again, not a worry! Thank you Vika for making our wedding absolutely beautiful and unforgettable!

Incredibly Talented Artist
Working with Vika was a great experience. From the beginning I knew that the floral design was one of the aspects I was most excited about for my wedding, I’m so happy I chose to work with Vika to accomplish this vision. Vika is truly an artist and has gorgeous ideas. While I had my own ideas I expressed to her, I found her work exceeded my wildest dreams and amplified my vision into a more high end, impressive work of art. Vika was flexible, courteous, and responsive throughout the whole process, giving my husband and I so many extra services out of the kindness of her heart. If you are looking for bespoke floral or drapery artwork in the area, Vika’s design work stands alone. My husband and I wholeheartedly endorse Vika!

Gala 417 January 2026
I cannot recommend Vika enough! I heard about Vika through The Gala 417 as a preferred vendor. After seeing her website and Instagram page, I knew she would be able to bring my vision to life. If you’re looking for a moody, dramatic, romantic vibe, she’s the florist/designer to book.
Upon reaching out, communication has been clear and prompt. Vika worked with my budget and gave honest opinions on what flowers are in season and within my budget. Her proposal is very detailed, and she places a big focus on design not just for the florals but for the table lighting, as well.
The biggest showstopper was the draping that I added a few months before the wedding. Vika was very accommodating with that request and showed me examples and suggested where it could be placed. Imagining it and then actually seeing it on my wedding day, I truly cannot put into words how in awe I was and still am any time I look at my wedding photos.
Vika is an artist with phenomenal design. 100% recommend and would honestly book again!

Not your average florist!
Vika exceeded all of my expectations, not just with the florals but with her incredible design sense and creativity. When I first started planning the wedding, I didn’t think florals would be something I cared much about. But after meeting with Vika and seeing her vision, I was genuinely so excited. She is not your average florist. She is truly an artist and creates the most unique and stunning arrangements. The space looked more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. Knowing she was there to set up the ceremony and reception spaces gave me such peace of mind on a busy and stressful day. Vika was also incredibly professional and communicative throughout the entire process. She responded quickly to all my emails and questions, and was flexible with any adjustments I needed. Working with her was an absolute dream.

Highly recommend
Wow Vika is so talented. She has a wonderful creative eye and the ability to listen, understand, and execute a vision. She takes her work seriously and sees through not only her vision was executed but ours as well. I loved her energy the day of our wedding. It’s clear she is passionate with a beautiful attention to detail. And she has just that, a gifted attention to detail that I really appreciate. She prepped me on how, where, what angle to hold my bouquet in photos and down the aisle. She took behind the scenes videos that I would not of been able to review without her.
We just absolutely loved everything she did. My mom’s bouquet, mine, the drapery design. Everything was exactly how we wanted it and more and we can’t say thank you enough.
She comes highly recommended from us.

Breathtaking Florals, thankyou!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about our florist! The floral designs for our wedding were absolutely breathtaking. The stunning red arrangements set a romantic and timeless tone that elevated the entire day—truly something I didn’t even realize I needed in my life until I saw how it all came together.
Every detail—from the ceremony to the reception—was beyond anything I could have imagined. The flowers brought so much life and warmth to every space, and my heart is still so full just thinking about how glorious everything looked.
On top of the stunning results, the communication throughout the entire process was exceptional. Our florist was responsive, thoughtful, and made us feel heard every step of the way. Her creativity and artistic eye were evident in every arrangement—she brought our vision to life and added a beautiful touch of her own that made it even better.
What made it even more special is that the beauty didn’t end after the wedding. We took all the florals with us, and many of our guests loved them so much that they brought them back to their hotels to enjoy for the rest of the weekend. Some even took arrangements home to give them a second life!
Thank you for bringing such thoughtful, vibrant, and meaningful beauty into our day. You exceeded every expectation and created something we—and our guests—will never forget.

She blew us away!
Vika was our dream florist - she blew us away with her floral design! She understood exactly what we wanted and RAN with it. I cannot express how much trust we put in her, and she truly made our day more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. Her attention to detail is top tier, and her eye for beauty is phenomenal. She even matched my bouquet's florals to my dress. If you are considering booking with her - do it now! I would give 100 stars if I could.
