    Beautiful flowers!!

    Anne was great and easy to work with! We had a few calls over zoom after filling out a questionnaire with what we wanted. She used her expertise to let us know what was realistic based on our budget and time of year (e.g. peonies weren’t in season, but ranunculus are in fall). She set up everything so quickly on the day of that we didn’t have the chance to thank her. So thank you, Anne!!!

    Wonderful to work with

    I worked with Anne for my wedding. Anne was very flexible with us while adjusting the wedding due to covid. She was so easy to work with. We had a session in person where I could share my ideas and she really turned my vision into a reality. I trusted her from the beginning to create a beautiful scene for the wedding. At the last minute because of rain we had to bring the ceremony indoors and she created a new plan for the flowers right away. I appreciated that she let us do what we wanted even where it was minimal and even gave us ideas for how to re-use flowers to save costs. The arrangements were lovely. I would highly recommend her!

    Mother of the bride

    Anne was recommended to me by several friends and I was confident that we would be happy from the moment we met. She is an extremely experienced, creative and talented florist as well as easy going, flexible and professional.
    We gave Anne the color palette and some favorite flower choices along with some photos of arrangements that we liked and she did her magic the day of the wedding. She made our vision come to life. The flower arrangements and all of the florals everywhere, including the bouquets, were absolutely beautiful. They were “exactly” what we wanted. We would most highly recommend Anne as the florist for your wedding. If you would like further information, feel free to call Anne for my contact info.

    Anne was so wonderful! Knowing nothing about flowers, I entrusted her to do what she does best and she definitely pulled through. She knew what flowers would be in season, had pictures of examples since I didn't know the flowers by name. Anne and her staff helped make my ceremony and reception look absolutely beautiful and elegant, which is exactly what I wanted!

    Anne was amazing! My fiancé and I met Anne in person, she works out of her home in Walnut Creek. I was a little concerned that the flowers available in December would not be anything like I wanted and that somehow there would be pink mixed in. Anne did not add anything we had not discussed, she designed based off photos I sent her and there were somehow more plowers than i expected. I would hire Anne an time I need flowers!

    Anne was wonderful to work with - even when we were not sure what we wanted. From about a million disparate photos and very little direction, she was able to get the feeling we were going for perfectly! She created beautiful bouquets, boutonnieres, arrangements, and even a 30 ft. garland. It couldn't have been better!

    I used Anne as my florist for my October 2013 wedding at the Hacienda de las Flores. We got her name from the venue's preferred vendor list. Her cost was very reasonable for all of the flowers she provided.

    She provided bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, aisle runners, and center pieces, as well as some other misc flowers for decoration and our party favors. She did most of the setup without needing direction. My one complaint was that she didn't get the boutonniere pinned on the groomsmen, fathers, and kids, so I actually had to do it right before the ceremony.

    We didn't really have a vision, other than for our wedding colors, for the flowers. We let Anne pretty much make the decisions about what to do and everything turned out great.

    We asked her at one point about dressing up a stair case railing and she actually said she didn't think it needed anything. I appreciated her honesty and that she didn't simply see an opportunity to make a little more money.

    She has a good design eye and her cost is very reasonable. I would recommend Anne, especially to people like me who don't really know much about flowers.

    We were so pleased to see the beautiful floral arrangements Anne put together for our wedding ceremony and reception. Anne is very nice to work with! We could see right away that she is a very experienced and talented florist! She formatted the floral plan to fit my husband and I as well as the venue. The floral arrangements were gorgeous and were created just like we discussed. The bridesmaids loved their bouquets, and commented on how full and beautiful they were!

    I love flowers and went on a desperate hunt to find a detail oriented florist within my budget only days after getting engaged. Anne was one of six florists that I spoke with and I'm thrilled to have worked with her for a number of reasons. Anne can work with any budget and creates fabulous designs. I was pleasantly surprised to see everything set-up and delivered on our wedding day exactly on time and am still wondering how she did it so quickly! Her work is exceptional and I would recommend her services to any bride.

    Anne Mendenhall gave my wedding that perfect pop of color. Her vision was exactly what I was dreaming about. I think everything from the flower bouquets, the table arrangements and all of Anne's creations at the wedding made our wedding day perfect!

    I found Anne through my wedding coordinator, Mirella Riga, and I am so glad I did. I called multiple florists in the East Bay area and Anne was by far the most professional and reasonable. Her prices were very competitive, but the best part about Anne is she is very good and creating your vision. All the flowers were perfect, the centerpieces were grand and lush, and the small touches like the ribbons used to wrap the bouquet handles were perfect.

    Anne is an absolutely amazing florist and a pleasure to work with. Anne provided the flowers for our April 30th wedding and exceeded my expectations. I am a believer of hiring a florist because of their style and expertise, so I did not have an exact picture in my mind of what we wanted. We didnt go in insisting on expensive orchids imported from the tropics or anything particular like that. Instead, we just told her we wanted current, spring blooms in bright colors to match our wedding, and we provided her with mason jars and antique bottles to match the vibe of our reception. Anne truly understood our rustic vision, and delivered stunning flowers. My bouquet was exactly what I wanted, even though I had no idea what that might be! We got so many compliments from our guests.

    If you are expecting to go to a big florist shop and meet, don't be surprised that Anne works out of a studio attached to our house. We had a wonderful, comfortable consultation at her home where she provided us albums of photos to look through. She is so down to earth, and I felt like I had known her for years!

    Anne was very flexible and easy to work with, and understood we were working with a budget. When we had to add on last minute corsages and a flower girl headband, it went off without a hitch. Everything was stunning- I would highly recommend Anne.

    Anne did an amazing job on our wedding! Her flowers were gorgeous and she brought a lot of ideas to the table during the planning stage. She was always available to discuss changes or suggestions and followed up very quickly with quotes and contracts. She has very reasonable prices for the work that she does and was able to plan based on my budget. I cannot say enough about how wonderful she was to work with, she was a recommendation from a coworker and I have since given her name to several of my friends that are planning their events!

    Anne did an amazing job. She is a pleasure to work with. She offers great ideas, but at the same time does a great job listening to what you want. The flowers in the church were amazing and the centerpieces at the reception were exactly what I had pictured (probably better even). She also offered cost saving ideas (using the bridesmaid’s bouquets to decorate the head table and floating gardenia’s for the cocktail tables during happy hour to reduce costs). Anne works hard to get to know her brides and asks great questions to really understand the look you are going for. She is creative, fun, and really knows what looks great at a wedding. I loved my bouquet and Anne even asked questions about my dress to ensure the whole look went well together. Her prices are low for the amount of work that goes into her job. Everyone commented on how beautiful the flowers were and Anne had the lowest quote of all the florists we met with. I would definitely use Anne again and recommend her to any other bride-to-be.

    Stunning flowers. Very accommodating to my schedule and requests. Very knowledgeable about flower choices based on what colors I wanted, and about which flowers would stand up over the long wedding day. She was able to guide me towards my vision, but with her artist's eye. She was able to take my very loosely articulated vision and bring it to life. I loved my flowers. Anne was a pleasure to work with, and was very reasonable compared to other estimates.

    Our wedding flowers were beautiful! Anne was very easy to work with and she produced everything we asked for. She had reasonable prices which was great. We came in with some pictures and ideas with what we wanted and she gave great input and showed us all the different flowers that would be included in the bouquets and centerpieces.

    Anne was so nice and attentive to us during our planning process. My mom and I met with her a few times to discuss a variety of centerpiece options and discuss colors, flower varietals, etc. I don't know much about flowers, only what colors I wanted, and Anne was totally fine with coming up with ideas and helping make decisions.

    I rate the quality of service a bit lower because the flowers on the day of were not quite as expected. There were a few boutonnieres that were not even close to open and were quite droopy, and the color scheme of the bouquets was also not what I had envisioned. We had discussed many purples, navy, and jewel tones, but I saw much pink and red throughout, even overwhelming the purple/boysenberry color scheme. In a winter wedding, it is possible that for the price Anne was unable to find as much of the color and vibe that I had envisioned; however, I hoped that there would be a bit more in line with my colors and overall vision. Even so, the bouquets and centerpieces WERE beautiful and did pull in some of my colors, so it was still a beautiful night and event.

    Anne was great to work with. Extremely easy to talk to and bounce ideas with. We each brought different perspectives to the table and worked well together to create a beautiful setting for the night. We had high expectations going in and she exceeded that easily. We have already recommended her services to a couple of our engaged friends.

    I booked Anne on the recommendation of my cake lady. While the flowers turned out very beautiful, we were short a bouquet AND a botanir the day of the wedding. It was very close to being a nightmare, but my girls were able to arrange the flowers so no one except us knew. I was very disappointed, especially because of all of the rave reviews I had heard. I think it was simply an oversight, and definitely a mistake. Anne was very apologetic and made efforts to refund us some of the money we had paid her.

    Also, I dont know if this is all flower vendors, but my flowers were wilting the night of the wedding. My mothers corsage was completely wilted, and the groomsman flowers were the same. Disappointed but I understand the mistakes.

    Horrible flowers

    I cannot even put into thoughts how horrible my wedding flowers were. If you love wasting money, please give her your business. I was miserable the entire night just looking at them. I also was crying the entire night from frustration. The flowers were NOTHING of what we had discussed upon. NOTHING. At least she remembered the color scheme. MY RECEPTION WAS EMPTY…E.M.P.T.Y. We were so embarrassed with the amount of money that was spent and just looking at what was displayed. Oh, and the flowers that were put together…I will not get started. Ruined my entire evening. That is what I will remember of my wedding. So, if you love wasting money, this is a great recommendation!
