  Ballard Blossoms never disappoints. I have use the many times to send flowers to friends and they always have unique beautiful creations.
  
  My son and his fiancé had a small wedding at pikes place. She did not want a bouquet but instead a large wrist corsage. We sent Ballard Blossom a picture of what we liked and all of the exact flowers one available they meet a gorgeous full corsage out of roses.
  
  It was perfect.

  We encountered florists reeking with talent. While our daughter was "assigned" a florist for her wedding, when she was away, another stepped in to ensure we were immediately taken care of. Everyone was wonderful. They made many productive suggestions based on their extensive experience. We felt the floral love. <3!

  Rebekah at Ballard Blossom was great to work with. She was quick at responding and always answered all of my questions. The flowers turned out absolutely beautiful. I couldn't have asked for better!

  I LOVED our flowers! Tajah was amazing! I just gave her a bit of direction and she ran with it and made everything look stunning. I was very happy with the final product!

  Jean does the most amazing arrangement of flowers - she is to scale with the big flower vendors in the city. She is a sweetheart and can do pretty much anything you ask her.

  Our flowers were beautiful, and Ballard Blossom worked so hard with us to get exactly what we were wanting for the look of our wedding. We were incredibly happy with them.

  Our flowers were absolutely gorgeous for our wedding! Most florists charged a minimum to do flowers for our event, we really enjoyed the flexibility Ballard Blossom had. We could order exactly what we needed and extra. I would gladly use them again.

  Large choice selection. Very honest about probability of obtaining and cost of out of season flowers. Delivery was punctual. The flowers were beautiful!

  They couldn't fit my budget, but the quality of the work made me forget it on the day of. I spent $600 on 1 bride bouquet, 5 bridesmaid bouquets, 1 groom boutonniere, and 5 groomsmen boutonnieres, and 3 mother's corsages. I appreciated that after the consult, I received three options for "good/better/best" budget so I could weight the trade-offs and ultimately decide to exceed my budget for the big day. The bouquets held up well throughout the day and looked stunning in pictures!

  We met with Taj Downey, who helped us pick what types of flowers and arrangements we might like by showing us numerous "decks." I didn't have fabric scraps with me at the time, but she was still able to use our descriptions to put together creations that matched our colors very well.
  
  I think they charge a standard $150 / bridal bouquet, because when I asked about potentially changing the types of flowers to make it less expensive, she said she'd just change the numbers of each flower type she would use and charge the same amount. Since we had a bit of sticker shock, we asked if we could trim down some of the bouquets to make them more affordable. It took some time for her to get back to us (a week? I forget by now...), but she did provide us new estimates. We even considered cutting rosebuds from my husband's (family's) backyard and making the corsages ourselves, but we needed to use a professional to ensure that we had enough young buds (rather than full-blown, open roses) available on wedding day.
  
  I really appreciate that Taj called us a few days before our final invoice was due to remind us, because I had been traveling and completely forgotten about it! She also let us change our order pretty late in the game -- cutting out centerpieces, adding extra corsages). We had an AM wedding, and even though their storefront isn't open until 8, they made sure someone was available for us to pick up our flowers at 7:30 (we didn't want to pay the delivery fee).
  
  So yes, going with any professional florist is pricey, but Ballard Blossom's prices were reasonable, and we used them for our bouquets & corsages. The rest of the arrangements / church decorations we got at Pike Place Market for $5-$15 each ;) They would have cost another $200 if we had a florist do them anywhere else...

  Laurel Stromme is amazing! Young, full of ideas, and willing to work within your budget and your ideas. I supplied her with empty vases for the center pieces, and she brought the flower arrangements to life.

  They are good at what they do and they do a lot of weddings. I did not feel like my day was anything out of the ordinary for them, and that was a little disappointing. The flowers did not last long, unfortunately. But, the bridal bouquet was gorgeous!!! They weren't very social, a little to business-like. But their ability to get it done made up for it.

  The flowers were absolutely gorgeous! Everything was a bit pricey, but pretty on par with wedding flowers. They did a great job to create the bouquets, communicate with me about what I wanted, and setup the flowers to survive the day without trouble. Sometimes I didn't get emails back right away, but most of the time they were good.

  The flowers here are amazing and everything turned out beautiful. It was a little hard to work with them though since our consultant did not work any weekends. All in all though they were great.

  My ceremony and reception flowers were absolutely stunning, they belonged on a Pinterest wedding page! My only complaint is regarding responsiveness. 3 weeks before my wedding I emailed the florist to confirm a change to the order, 2 weeks later I hadn't heard back. Quick math tells you that's 1 week before my wedding. I called and found out my florist was on vacation and someone made the change over the phone. Overall I was very happy with the flowers, which is what really mattered.
