Kristin T. Sent on 11/17/2022Blown Away by Alana
We were absolutely astounded by Alana’s floral design for our wedding. She is truly talented. She created 5 hanging installations in the greenhouse where we had our ceremony and reception and both our guests and family (and us!) were blown away by the beautiful design. Her attention to detail and ability to tell a story with color and texture is unbelievable. She was the best choice we made for our wedding - hands down. Highly recommend using Alana if you want your wedding to be next level on atmosphere and design. -

She gave us a perfect fall wedding!
Alana is amazing! We spoke for a couple hours and she compiled a fantastic lookbook/vision board that I then used to plan so many other parts of our wedding. The installation she made for our ceremony was absolutely stunning and embodied all our fall foliage dreams. She really listened to all our requests and even foraged for parts of our displays to bring in Oregon's natural beauty. Our guest couldn't stop raving about how beautiful our wedding was and how much they loved it, and I truly think the gorgeous warm autumn vibes Alana's floral work gave off were an huge part of that. -

Ivy W. Sent on 07/22/2022Incredible Artistry, Flawless Execution, Incredible Partner In Crime for Any Wedding!
Alana of Amarie Flora was an absolute dream of a partner to work with for my March '22 wedding in Portland! She turned my conceptual request for a "tropical" "colorful" "fruit-filled" "Taiwan formosa island" floral theme into reality with an incredible editorial eye, with flawless and seamless execution.
At my wedding guests could not stop commenting on the beautiful floral arrangements hanging from the ceiling. More photos were taken of the floral and candle-lit tablescapes than people and the majority of our wedding hashtag contained mostly photos of floral arrangements created by Alana.
Alana you stole the show and were an incredible partner -- thank you for designing and manifesting the tropical, Taiwanese-inspired floral arrangements of my dreams! We will never forget your amazing artistic floral work! -

Amazing!!!
Alanna brought our vision to life, and made our wedding look better than anything we imagined / hoped for! She was kind, patient, professional, a great listener, and helped me conceptualize the things that I wasn’t quite certain of how to articulate. After our initial meeting, she drafted an incredible visual proposal which served as a guide for making any other selections (rentals) related to our desired look. Her florals brought everything together so nicely, we received soooo many compliments on her beautiful work! Not only is she incredibly talented, but also a good person person who was absolutely delightful to work with; we feel so lucky that she was available on our wedding date! -

Emma L. Sent on 11/28/2022Professional, SO Attentive, Artistic Design Focused!
Alana is the perfect example of a professional, attentive, kind-hearted, and personable vendor. She’s not just your average wedding florist. She focuses so much on her client’s overall vision, and with an impeccable eye for design, her final product, ART, becomes a reflection of the couple. For example, my now husband and I are from Hawai’i and got married in Oregon. And Alana was able to meld the two and personally selected flowers that told our love story through flora and fauna; gardenias and orchids for Hawai’i, Queen Anne’s Lace and roses for Oregon…etc. The amount of kindness and attentiveness she possesses is way above 5 stars.
Our favorite part of our wedding day: Alana was able to import orchids directly from Hawai’i to create a ‘raining’ hanging orchid installation above our dance floor.
We’ll have a special place in our heart for Alana/Amarie Flora, and we will forever recommend her company to all! -

Alana is not a florist, she is a true artist that can bring your vision to life in a way that you maybe couldn't have even envisioned for yourself. She takes the mood you want to feel, the colors that you're drawn to, and weaves them into a vision that will make your ceremony and reception so true to you, your love, and the experience that you want to create for your guests. She will create the opposite of a Pinterest copycat wedding and help bring your unique wedding to life in a way that you'll treasure forever. -

Working with Amarie Flora was one of the BEST decisions we made when it came to planning our dream wedding/reception. COVID threw some curveballs that made planning exceptionally difficult, but Alana was the core element that turned our event into a vision. She is one of the kindest souls you'll meet. She truly cares about getting to know your love story, then representing it with her floral magic. She excels in her communication, enthusiasm for her work, professionalism, and endless support. -

Professional, warm and fiercely creative!
Alana helped us plan and decorate our winter elopement in the Columbia River Gorge. She poured her essence into our special day and it was made every bit more magical because of it!
Alana does a great job listening to your vision and facilitating collaborative discussion. I felt respected by her and trusted her the whole way through. She offers a great artistic eye and mixes in unique florals to give pieces that extra pop. My wedding bouquet was bold, beautiful, and elegant, featuring exotic florals and local wintery greens. Each person who sees photos of our wedding immediately oohs and ahhs over the florals. Not surprising!
On the wedding day, Alana was warm and professional and contributed to an intimate and memorable vibe. She worked well with other vendors and I saw that she was finding any and all ways to be helpful.
I'm so grateful to have had the Amarie Flora touch on our special day and so happy I get to relive the beauty of her art through our photos! I highly recommend her! -

My florist dreams came true!
Where can we even start?! We have so many positive things to say that a short review seems impossible. Alana is the kindest and most creative soul. She is right there with you through multiple venue changes, cancellations and even a pandemic. Her flexibility and optimism far surpassed our expectations.
Her art speaks for itself. She has the ability to bring your vision to life. She brings in texture, color and nature to create the perfect ambiance. Her creativity is a true gift.
We feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to work with such a wonderful soul. We cannot recommend her work ethic, spirit, and creative eye enough. If you have the opportunity to work with her, she will bring true bliss to your special day. Whether it be in the mountains, the ocean or a industrial building, Alana is always up for your wedding adventure.
We cannot thank you enough for the warmth and memories you have given us. We hope that you continue to share your gifts with the world. Cheers to you!
Andrew and Sarah M.Amarie Flora's reply:
It was such an amazing adventure working alongside Sarah as we reimaged the wedding 3 times and having it culminate on a mountaintop. The ceremony at Mt. Baker and the reception in a nearby cabin were simply incredible. I love the palette of texture and color we created for her personals, ceremony and reception. It was perfectly timed with the slight changing of the seasonal color and their fabulous outfits. Thank you Andrew and Sarah, and I hope your celebration inspires so many others to come! -

Wonderful florist!
Oh goodness! I was so excited when my wedding planner found Alana! Within the first 5 minutes of meeting her on a zoom call, we knew we wanted to work with her. Alana is artistic, kind, and so very thoughtful.
Alana did all of the florals for our summer wedding, including bouquets, boutonnières, a small hair piece, and the ceremony and reception. Here are just a few specific things we loved about working with Alana:
- Her work is stunning!
- We got married in August 2020, and Alana remained flexible with our changing plans the entire time.
- She is highly responsive to emails and questions. I felt like I could ask the same question over and over, and Alana would respond with kindness every time.
- She is transparent about costs and scheduling. She provided many suggestions to help capture our vision within our budget.
- She is a peaceful presence. I saw Alana the morning of the wedding when she dropped off the bouquets and boutonnières, and, even then, her presence was absolutely calming… not to mention I was blown away by my beautiful bouquet.
If you are looking for someone who is an absolute joy to partner with, and has a wonderful eye for design, Alana of AMARIE FLORA is the florist for you! -

Alana is the best! She took the time to personalize all of the florals to exactly the look and style that I wanted. She has a background in design and architecture which gives her a unique perspective when she comes up with her creations. She came up with ideas that I never would have thought of on my own (flower disco ball anyone!!??) and she picked flowers that perfectly fit my color scheme. Alana was very easy to communicate with, transparent with schedule and cost, organized, and on time with everything she did. I would HIGHLY recommend her for any event.Amarie Flora's reply:
Thank you so much, Laura! This makes my day and you were such a dream client to collaborate with. I loved every minute! -
