    Stunning Florals!

    We absolutely loved my bouquet and boutonnière that Kate created for our intimate wedding ceremony in Big Sur! She pinned down the exact colors and florals that I had described to her, and the bouquet matched the vibe of our day perfectly - we got endless compliments on it from friends and family. Highly recommend Kate if you’re looking for stunning florals for any occasion!

    I don't know flowers well and Kate helped create a flower-scape of my dreams!

    Kate with Big Sur Flowers was great to work with. I sent her a few photos of the "vibe" I wanted and told her I really didn't know anything about flowers and just to make it feel wild, magical, and boho. Kate totally delivered and brought me the perfect flowers for my bouquet and tables. We also had a wedding tree and wanted marigolds for an Indian-American fusion wedding. Kate brought these awesome garlands that really made the ceremony site pop! She also brought flowers for my hair which was lovely.

    Big Sur Flowers's reply:

    Thank you for your review ! I loved creating your florals ! My favorite part was the ceremony garlands ! Loved the colors !

    Kate did an amazing job for our wedding. We provided our invitations/color scheme and she created the most beautiful bouquet and table settings. Would recommend for any wedding Big Sur area!

    Floral art!

    I hired Kate for our daughter & fiancé's wedding at Loma Vista Gardens in Big Sur. She turned the outdoor venue into an enchanted fairy tale! The florals, candles and decor were absolutely gorgeous - from the bridal party bouquets to the table settings and everything in between! Kate was delightful to work with and I highly recommend her!

    Kate Will Reflect All of the Most Beautiful Elements of Big Sur on Your Wedding Day

    We loved how beautifully Kate executed the florals for our Big Sur wedding! Due to COVID, we ended up postponing our wedding THREE times over the past two years. Kate was always enthusiastically in our corner and happy to remain flexible throughout the entire process. I was never one of those brides who was combing Pinterest for editorialized tablescapes; I really just wanted to reflect the natural beauty of Big Sur with florals that were local and in-season. I kept my questionnaire responses pretty high-level, with my only specific request being that things not lean too boho. I really leaned into my intuition and was completely hands-off, having faith that Kate would know exactly how to reflect the landscape back to our loved ones. To say I was blown away by her execution would be an understatement. Kate and her team didn't just produce decor for our special day: they told a story. Our out-of-town guests were absolutely taken in by the beauty of everyday plants like wild oats, lavender, ferns, and even freshly cut citrus woven through the dinner tablescape. The best part of working with Kate is that she has given me the gift of these plants far beyond our wedding. I walk around this ecosystem I love so much (east bay) and get to see kangaroo paw and lavender growing across my neighborhood -- the very same varieties Kate arranged for my hair accessories on my wedding day. I see ferns and wild oats growing like weeds and think back to my bouquet, which still hangs upside down for drying in my garage. To be surrounded by these small gifts and be reminded of our wedding is so special. Thank you for everything, Kate!

    Wow -- flower fairy!

    All I have to say is WOW. Kate's flowers are out of this world. If you want plain jane, don't go with Kate. She is a flower fairy. She mixes textures and colors. Kate can truly make any of your craziest visions come true. She made this beautiful moon arch for us -- it was so stunning. When it comes to Kate, dream big as she will make it happen.

    Kate gave us the wedding of our dreams! She far exceeded our expectations and did so while staying within our budget. She quickly understood our vision for the wedding with just a short conversation and a few pinterest pictures and the final day turned out better than we could have ever imagined. From my insanely gorgeous flower crown and bouquet, to the beautiful rugs used for the ceremony, to the dinner tables overflowing with jewel toned flowers, garlands, and candles, to the decorations for the dance floor- i could go on and on about how stunning and tastefully done everything was. Kate is truly talented and the fact that all of the flowers come from her garden makes everything even more magical. She was a joy to work with and we cannot recommend her more highly.

    Hello amazing flowers! A friend suggested that we not worry about flowers because no one really notices them at weddings, but this couldn't be further from the truth about Kate's flowers. So many people raved about how beautiful the flowers and arrangements were. Especially the dahlias! Our guests were even more in awe when they learned that she grows all of the flowers she uses. Did I mention how amazingly beautiful the dahlias were?

    Kate was also able to take my erratic Pinterest board and help me incorporate all of my favorites into different centerpieces. and a beautiful archway. We had whimsical lights, lush garlands, and she has an amazing selection of vases and votives for you to rent.

    Kate is a busy woman who's growing flowers for your wedding. Just trust that she will take your visions and bring them to life. She followed up with me a couple of weeks before the wedding for final counts and any changes. My day of coordinator has a great relationship with Kate and took care of much of the small details with her, so I really didn't sweat anything.

    I absolutely recommend Kate for your wedding!

    Kate's flowers are beautiful and she is equally lovely to work with. Kate worked thoughtfully within our budget to provide us wonderful arrangements for our wedding. We especially loved the flower wand for our three-year-old niece.

    Oh my gosh our flowers were unbelievable!!! Kate is an artist! She did an amazing job with our flowers. I told her our budget and the visions I had - I'm not super familiar with flowers so all I could tell her was the color scheme I wanted and she worked her magic! She also did an arch for our ceremony that was insane. I diy'd my own centerpieces and Kate was awesome about filling those. I received (and am still receiving) a TON of compliments about our flowers. I would definitely go with Kate for your wedding flowers. Her work is extra special because she grows everything herself! Thank you Kate!

    I worked with Kate Healey of Big Sur Flowers on my bridal bouquet for my wedding last month. Kate did an amazing job on the bouquet and I am so pleased with how it turned out. She was easy to work with I highly recommend her services.

    Kate provided absolutely gorgeous flowers for our Big Sur elopement. She made a bouquet and flower crown for my wife and a boutonniere for me. Not knowing flowers/floral arrangements all that well, my wife sent Kate some photo examples of the type of arrangement she was looking for. My wife said the flowers were "everything I wanted but didn't know the words to describe".

    We inquired about succulents at one point, and Kate included a teeny-tiny cute succulent in my boutonniere. I even planted it when we got home and it's doing well!

    I would highly recommend Kate if you want elegant, locally-grown flowers in the Big Sur area!

    Kate did the flowers for our recent wedding at Point 16 in Big Sur. I had first contacted Kate several months ago, but waited to book a florist because I wasn't sure how much of our budget we'd be able to use for flowers. When I got in touch with her again a couple months before the wedding, not only had my vision and color scheme for the florals changed, it was also clear I wouldn't have as much of a flower budget as I'd initially hoped. Kate was so easy to work with, took it all in stride, and was graciously able to work within our budget. She assured me that nothing would be compromised. The day of the wedding, not only was nothing compromised, but our guests were raving about the gorgeous, unique arrangements she had created! A few people were even snapping pics of the arragements to send to their own daughters who were engaged and planning weddings. Kate put together the prettiest little mini bouquets for my girls, and the most gorgeous bridal bouquet for myself. She used the most perfect vintage vases and candle votives, and in addition to the arrangements & bouquets, she created two flower crowns for both myself and my flower girl. The colors in the flower crowns weren't quite the same colors as in the arragements, but I didn't even notice until after the fact because they were so beautiful, and it was awesome to have a fresh flower crown to wear during my reception! I can't thank Kate enough. I'm a perfectionist and had very specific ideas of how I wanted my wedding flowers and decor to look, so I did have a twinge of nervousness since I never saw a sample arrangement prior to the big day, and Kate doesn't rely on Pinterest like a lot of other florists tend to. Turns out I had absolutely nothing to worry about! I told her what I wanted, sent her photos of my ideas, put my trust in her, and she executed everything perfectly! Thank you Kate!

    You can not pick a better florist!
    I should have called Kate from the beginning.
    I had another florist lined up for my destination wedding but they flaked out on me just 2 weeks before my wedding!
    I called Kate and luckily she was available.
    She was so professional, helpful, considerate, dependable, thoughtful and just so awesome to work with.
    She totally understood my vision and executed it SO well- even on a time crunch!
    The flowers were beautiful and we were so grateful!!

    We used Big Sur Flowers for our wedding at the Ventana and I was so pleased! We had very little understanding of what we wanted in a florist, especially given the amazing beauty already available in an outdoor Big Sur wedding, but Kate was able to guide us through the process and very much personalized the end result. We loved that she grew many of the flowers herself!

    Kate provided us with the PERFECT flowers for our wedding. We requested that she "bring the outdoors in" and she did EXACTLY that. Initially, we were going to do all of our table flowers ourselves with flowers from a farmers market, but when we told Kate, she offered to do them for us AND stay within our budget. She was super flexible and even called me a few days before to tell me that her pink peonies were blooming better than she'd ever seen and to ask if she wanted me to add them into my bouquet. Her level of service was unmatched and she a true artist. My bouquet, by the way, was stunning!

    I would and have recommended this vendor to many of friends who have used Big Sur Flowers and brides are totally thrilled every time. Kate Healey of BSF is incredible. She has an eye for the unique and always goes above and beyond expectations. For my september wedding I wanted peonies, since they werent in season and getting them shipped in was a little out of my budget, kate came up with so many other totally worthy alternatives that worked beautifully. Her knowledge of flowers is profound. Being a gardener her self she knows just what to put with what, how long things will last and when things are in season. I had nine bridesmaids and groomsmen and countless family in the wedding party that needed an extreme amount of bouquets and lapelles. She didnt forget anyone AND came with extras. I think the best thing about Kate is her attention to detail and her eye for the unique. Every piece of hers is something different no two weddings are the same I loved that she made my day truly my own and truly exceptional. I hope any bride looking for a wonderful, helpful, talented florist will go with Big Sur Flowers.

    Kate made our wedding so beautiful and elegant. She created a french country chic vibe that we requested from our vision board and she executed with success. I would recommend Kate to any bride in caring out her vision of her wedding day.

    Kate is absolutely amazing, gifted and an absolute pleasure to work with. The flowers for our wedding were stunning. With very little guidance, Kate honed in our style and made every single arrangement (from bouquet to table to accents around the venue) absolutely perfect. She's a pleasure to have around and you never have to worry about her - she will get it right and do it with a warm and calming smile that makes it all seem effortless. I highly recommend working with her!

    Kate is amazing and the flowers for my wedding were incredible! Kate was really fun to work with and super flexible as my 'vision' for the wedding flowers evolved. I couldn't say enough positive things about Kate - the chuppah, bouquets, boutennieres and tables were all perfectly perfect. I love flowers and am a perfectionist and thought about doing the flowers myself for my wedding - I never could have created what Kate did so well. Thank you, thank you, Kate!

    Kate did such an amazing job! I had no idea what I wanted and she worked with me and talked to me several times about different ideas. At the end of the day she created something completely unique and breathtaking! I wouldn't have changed a thing and I couldn't have asked for anything more beautiful.
