Pinterest Worthy Florals

Courtney did an AMAZING job. She is very detail oriented and asks many questions to ensure her client is getting the exact vision they thought of. She created Pinterest worthy works of art!

Her quality, thoughtfulness and vision were priceless.

With COVID, we had so many uncertainties but I knew our florals would be amazing. Courtney and her team did NOT disappoint. She made my dreams a reality-something I never knew possible. About 2 weeks before the wedding we had to cut our guest count from 150 to 50 due to COVID restrictions and Courtney had to redo all of the plans she originally had for our reception tables. Even though I wish all of our guest could have joined us, the end product of her imagination and work was something I've never seen. She was so patient with me, my ideas and changes, and I honestly looked to her for advice on navigating being positive and continuing forward throughout the pandemic. She was so thoughtful-I just received an ornament containing flowers from my bouquet and the ribbon from it as well, after I accidentally left it at our venue the night of our wedding. I will cherish that gift and what she did for me for the rest of my life. You gotta check her out!!

Highly Recommend for Wedding Floral Design

I cannot say enough positive things about Courtney and Violets Are Blue. She did all the florals for my June 2019 wedding. Courtney is extremely talented and provides florals to be reasonable within your budget. Courtney was available to me for planning meetings and very responsive to emails. She was organized and open to modifications throughout our planning process. She truly listens to a bride's vision and wants swatches of colors to get the perfect color match for her florals. Her floral arrangements WOW'd us! From the bouquets, to the centerpieces, to the garlands, fireplace mantels, and cake decoration…all of her floral designs were beyond our expectations. Her rental products including vases, candles, and gold frames also added to the overall beauty. I appreciated her suggestion to donate some of the flowers to the Indianapolis branch of Random Acts of Flowers, who picked up the floral arrangements from my reception venue the next day and repurposed them into floral bouquets for nursing homes, hospitalized patients, etc. I highly recommend Courtney and Violets are Blue Floral Design!

Gorgeous flowers!!!

Courtney is an amazing florist! I didn't really know what I wanted for wedding flowers, but Courtney did a really great job of asking about what I liked during our planning meeting. Our wedding venue looked gorgeous decked out in the floral pieces she designed. She designed stuff to decorate the arch under which we got married which looked absolutely stunning. Our centerpieces also looked nice. The flowers on top of my cake looked great. I loved my wedding bouquet so much that I'm getting it preserved so I can keep it forever. All in all, I'm so happy with how our flowers turned out -- you should definitely hire Violets are Blue for your wedding day too!

Handles Every Obstacle with Ease

Courtney with Violets are Blue did such an amazing job on the flowers for my wedding. They were honestly one of my favorite things about the whole day.

We planned our wedding in three months, so everything was on a pretty tight schedule. Added to the fact that I was planning from out of town and had to do a FaceTime contact meeting with her, and I could still not believe the ease with which Courtney and co. were able to handle my every need!

I didn't have a super clear vision for the flowers, just wanted them to be jeweled tone themed, and they were everything I ever dreamed! Courtney took my limited ideas and made me exactly what I had had in mind.

I 100% recommend Violets are Blue for any Indianapolis wedding. We were able to get everything I wanted well within my budget and it all looked AMAZING. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you!

One of the best parts of my wedding!

I cannot express enough how much I love Courtney and Violets Are Blue!!!!

To start, Courtney was extremely responsive and easy to work with. She was really transparent about my budgetary needs as well, which I really appreciated as I was on a tighter budget. She also set me up with a pinterest page for she and I to put images and inspo on, which was awesome!

Then the BIG DAY finally came around and OH MY GOODNESS. Breathtaking florals, friends! I received SO MANY compliments on my bouquet, the bridesmaids, the centerpieces ... all of it.

Seriously, stop looking and just work with Violets Are Blue. You will love it!!!!!!

Amazing experience and beautiful flowers!

I can’t say enough great things about Courtney at Violets are Blue. She was so easy to work with from the first time we met . She took what I had envisioned and brought it to life better than I could have ever imagined. The bouquets were beautiful (13 Bridesmaids and then my own!) and every table at the reception was better than I ever expected ! Our guests constantly commented on the flowers as well. I am so happy she was our florist and would highly recommend. Thank you for making our day so beautiful Courtney !

Beautiful Flowers!

I had a wonderful time working with Courtney to decide on my wedding flowers. We met for coffee the first time and started a Pinterest board to share things that I liked. I showed her an image of a bouquet I was in love with and she immediately knew every flower that was in it and how to recreate it. She worked really well with my budget and the flowers for the day were absolutely gorgeous!

Highly recommend VAB!

Courtney was amazing to work with! I don't live in the Indy area, and she was more than willing to help me plan via Facetime and email. She was incredibly responsive and accommodating, doing whatever was needed to stay within our budget. The planning process was very simple and organized, as Courtney had all of the right questions ready to make sure not one detail was missed. She even set up a Pinterest board to get a better idea of our wedding style and vision, and absolutely nailed it. Our flowers were beautiful and I am thankful to have chosen VAB for our special day. Thank you for making our day even more beautiful!

Violets are Blue made my fairy tale wedding more beautiful than I imagine.

If I could give more than 5-stars, I would! I had the best experience working with Courtney and her team. First, I am not the best at identifying or explaining the type of flower and decor look that I like, but Courtney walked me through the process and helped me identify what I was wanting for my wedding. Then she so kindly spent time at a follow-up meeting with my mom (who LOVES florals and decor) where we made a few adjustments and even added in some fun things. Part of my wedding was scheduled to be outside, but due to weather we moved everything inside. Courtney and her team KILLED it with the change of plans. I felt like I walked in to a fairy tale land when I arrived to the venue. The small touches like candles and sprigs of rosemary were exactly what I wanted. Not to mention, nothing was overpriced or unreasonable. I had many people asking after the wedding who my florist was and I was so excited to share with them my experience. Take a consultation meeting with Courtney and you'll see what I mean. She made my day more beautiful than I could event have imagined.
