    Exceptional Service and Stunning Florals for Our DIY Wedding

    Planning a DIY floral arrangement for our wedding seemed daunting at first, especially since we envisioned a unique mix of tropical flowers, traditional roses, and even some fruit elements. However, the team at 48longstems transformed this challenge into a delightful experience. From our first phone conversation, it was clear that they were committed to bringing our vision to life. They took the time to understand our goals, provided expert advice on flower pairings, and meticulously coordinated the delivery schedule to ensure every bloom would be at its peak beauty on our big day.
    What truly set 48longstems apart was their dedication to customer service. They patiently guided us through the process of preparing and caring for each type of flower, ensuring we felt confident and supported every step of the way. Despite my concerns about taking up too much of their time, they reassured me that my satisfaction was their priority, and they certainly delivered on their promise.
    The quality of the florals we received was beyond our expectations, and the arrangements turned out beautifully, exactly as predicted. The level of care, detail, and professionalism provided by 48longstems was exceptional, making our wedding day even more special.
    We are immensely grateful to 48longstems. To anyone embarking on a DIY floral journey for their wedding, or in need of expert guidance and beautiful flowers, we highly recommend 48longstems.

    The best floral vendors you could EVER work with!

    With one week until my daughters wedding, another vendor cancelled my order due to lack getting white roses. I Immediately called Mike at 48 long stems, it was evening time but I gave it a shot, right away he answered and hit the ball rolling in assisting me. He always kept me informed of the status of my order, and the quality of the product is 5 star. The flowers were fresh, gently packed, and beautiful. They lasted almost 3 weeks after the wedding! They are the perfect floral vendor for any occasion! I was able to do ALL the flowers for my daughters wedding for about $900.

    Outstanding florals and decor

    Karin is outstanding! We came to her with a vision on a Pintrest board and she delivered! She truly went above and beyond; we had a mock session with her where we played with different table decor set ups. She even called our catering company in advance of the mock up to find out table dimensions and plate layout. We gave her a lot of flexibility to be creative and I'm so glad we did. What she came up with was beyond my dreams. Highly recommend working with 48 Long Stems.

    AMAZING quality flowers & very affordable!

    As a bride (with zero experience, and did all the flowers myself, with my mom and 2 sisters) I've done plenty of research on flowers, affordability, quality, etc.
    I am SO GLAD I ordered from 48 long stem. I made a baby's breath bulk order from Costco but then cancelled my baby's breath flowers after reading some terrible reviews on Costco website. Despite my cancellation, they still sent me the flowers. and let me tell you, it DOES NOT compare to 48 long stems baby's breath. The quality of baby's breath and roses from 48 long stem were outstanding! Also Karen, a woman who works at 48 long stem spent hours with me on the phone helping and instructing me on what to buy and how to arrange my flowers for success. She is just the sweetest woman and an honor/ pleasure to work with her. She dedicated so much time, even after hours to help me with whatever I needed. Karen, you are such a gem! I received so many compliments on our flowers! it was truly a dream wedding!

    Nothing Short of Amazing

    Okay y'all, full disclosure this is going to be a long review but PLEASE READ if you are a bride looking to figure out how to tackle your wedding flowers. When I got engaged I had a big vision for my wedding florals but the actual costs of wedding florals basically stopped my in my tracks. I started doing research on how I could do it on my own, and I came across 48LongStems. That is when I met the amazing people named Karin and Mike. For months these two wonderful people worked with me to make sure the vision for my wedding would come together. I must have changed my mind ohhh only a hundred times or so and Mike and Karin were always there for me easing all my worries. I mean, I was literally on the phone with them sometimes at 7pm (their time) and not once did they ever make me feel like I was a bother and they were always there to help me figure it out. Then came the week of my wedding- my florals were dropped off at my house the Tuesday before my wedding and I spent Wednesday letting them bloom/settle, and Thursday putting my florals all together with my mom. Brides- trust me you CAN do this- and Karin will be there every step of the way to help you. On my Saturday wedding my florals were still insanely fresh (I did not see even see any wilting at all), lush, and GORGEOUS!!! It was like the farm had picked the flowers that day, the quality control is really amazing and completely superseded our expectations. Honestly what started as the most stressful part of my wedding, turned out to be one of the best memories and activities I did during wedding planning. It is all thanks to Karin and Mike who I hope I can work with again someday maybe for a friends wedding or event. Thank you so much to you both. To make a long story short, I would do it all over again.

    great experience from start to finish

    I had priced out greens for centerpieces and I called other vendors and none were knowledgeable and not patient as my order wasn't going to be at the top end of cost. I found 48 long stems and their reviews were so good that had to call. EVERY POSITIVE WORD WAS TRUE! I spoke with Michael and he walked me through the best choice for my needs and helped me with quantity. He walked me through the process step by step from ordering to shipping and tracking and then how to care for the greens until the event. He was spot on with every detail. That helped a great deal at a stressful time. An outstanding value all around.

    48LongStems Exceeded Expectations

    I wanted a talented local Maine floral design consultant who would work with my daughter to understand her vision and welcome her interest in being ‘hands-on’ in the design process. Karin exceeded our expectations in all aspects of our relationship including people skills, design talent, cost consciousness, and personalized delivery. I highly recommend Karin and Mike at 48 LongStems for excellence in customizing floral services to individual clients. We loved the outcome!

    AMAZING!!! I cannot recommend them enough!!

    Karen at 48 Long Stems was incredible to work with!! She was very responsive, spent lots of time on the phone with me mapping out my needs as well as working with me to be within our budget. Once we ordered flowers she invited me and my fiance to her own home to give us detailed tutorials on how to put together the flower arrangements that we were having, and taught us how to make bouquets and boutonnieres. She supplied us with tons of supplies, and offered several times to travel to us if we needed any help. She was always available to answer questions, and was more helpful than I can explain, she is an angel!! We had some greenery that was browning, and she went out of her way to get us more and even delivered it to us that day. I cannot recommend Karen and 48 Long Stems enough!!! We had so many flowers, our wedding guests kept complimenting how gorgeous they were, and we saved thousands of dollars by using wholesale flowers. AMAZING COMPANY AND PEOPLE!!!!

    Amazing flowers!

    Karen was so flexible and knowledgeable of what I liked based on my inspiration photos and knew what would be in season so there would be not issues. She came to arrange them with me and some of my party and it was so fun and stress relieving! She arranged all the flowers at the location and they were perfect!! She was helpful with our budget to actually help us come in below!! It was the most incredible experience, couldn’t express it more!

    Best customer service!

    Karin was fantastic and even helped me process some of my flowers. For living out of state and organizing wedding flowers, the whole process was so easy and I couldn’t be happier with the final product.

    Affordable option to get exactly what you want!

    If you're looking for a great way to save money on your event or wedding flowers - 48LongStems is an excellent option. I was able to get exactly the flowers I wanted and make the my centerpieces without spending a lot. Of course, this means you have to put in a little more work - BUT they also offer packages too! During my delivery there was a hurricane and my order status changed. I emailed them in a panic that my flowers would not arrive in time for the wedding. Mike emailed me back right away and eased my worries about the delivery, but also let me know he had a back up plan in place as well to ensure I got what I needed. Great customer service, great flowers, great price!

    48LongStems's reply:

    Thank you for choosing us for your flowers Melissa. You were a real pleasure to work with.

    We loved the flowers!
    Since our wedding was small, we were able to utilize the bridesmaids arrangements to decorate the tables.

    The flowers arrived in perfect condition, the care instructions were easy to follow and I loved the fact that they included a pair of flower clippers.

    The lovely roses and hydrangeas from 48LongStems added so much to my son's wedding. Some very personal encouragement and detailed ongoing instructions they gave me were very helpful. It was truly gratifying that in this present era of bad or non existent service and lack of responsibility on the part of vendors they seemed to care so very much that the flowers made it through some very hot weather to be as beautiful as they were. They added greatly to the appearance of the church and the bride and her mother were able to make simple, yet elegant and beautiful bouquets for the bridal party. I highly recommend this company.

    Michael, the guy at 48 Long Stems that I worked with was very informative and helpful. I had a special order and he was great in figuring it out and working with me to get what I wanted. Before and after the flowers arrived he was prompt in returning my calls and even gave me his cell phone number in case I had questions about the flowers after hours so I could reach him. He gave me great flower care instructions and was extremely helpful and definitely on top of things!
