    Trust them with design and everlasting quality

    Maria, the owner, which I have worked with in the past, is one of the sweetest vendors you will encounter. She will design the best bouquet and buttonier. Her flowers last for at least 1.5 weeks. She made me a stunning 😍 bouquet with orquids and roses, that are still opening so beautifully days after. Look no further !!!!

    Best family owned flower shop!!

    I cannot say enough great things about Christopher’s flowers. This is a family owned business and you feel like part of the family when you go into the shop. I worked with the owner’s daughter, Joanna, on the flowers for my wedding. She made my vision of lanterns for the bridesmaids reality and helped me design a plan for the big day. In our first meeting, she had demos set up for me to look at and see in person. She even prepared a demo lantern for me as the wedding got closer so that I could be confident in my choice to do something different when I started to doubt it! All of the arrangements were absolutely stunning AND lasted so long after the wedding. I received so many compliments on the florals. Christopher’s flowers have us as customers for life! My husband plans to get my bouquet remade every year on our anniversary. I am already looking forward to our first anniversary so I have these beautiful flowers to look at again.

    One word - amazing!

    I don't even know where to begin to describe the awesome experience that my husband and I had with Christopher's Flowers! Branden (My Husband) had been going there for some time to get me special occasion or just because flowers prior to the wedding! He fell in love with Mrs. Maria and just how genuine her and all of the staff were. When he proposed, we knew that Christopher's Flowers would be our flower vendor. We met with Mrs. Maria and let her know our vision and from there, she brought life to it! Christopher's Flowers provided all 6 of my bridesmaids bouquet, my bridal bouquet, a toss bouquet, 4 corsages for our mom's and grandmothers, and 11 Boutonnières for the groomsmen, groom, and our fathers and grandfathers. They also provide two large floral arrangements for us to place at the top of the aisle for the ceremony and at the sweetheart table. On top of this, they threw in extra rose petals for us and large clear cylinder vases we were able to use as decor. They were so affordable and everything about the experience was stress free! They were flexible with payments and just all around great people! We will continue to use Christopher's Flowers for each and every event we have that will need flowers!! Thank you so much Mrs. Maria and everyone at Christopher's Flowers! Branden & Brittany!

    Growing up we used Christopher's flowers for all things floral. We had no doubt that we wanted to use them for our wedding day. Maria and her staff did an AMAZING job on making our wedding picture perfect and exactly what we wanted. I wanted unique and funky flowers and she made my dream come alive. Her alter urn arrangements matched the bridesmaids bouquets and our sweetheart table centerpiece was big and beautiful. The floral arrangements are pure art and we are so grateful for their amazing business. They made it so easy to come in and talk about what we envisioned. It was easy to add or subtract things we wanted from our order. We highly recommend using them!

    How thankful I am to Maria and the Christopher's Flowers team can't be put into words that can truly express how I feel. To say they were fantastic is an understatement. I went to see Maria for my wedding flowers very unsure and very nervous about making the wrong decision. She showed me flowers, in person, that were along the lines of what I was describing, the colors I would like and the sizes needed for the pots I was providing. I left feeling great about my decision. I went back again to finalize everything and decided at that time I needed to add to my order a small greenery swag for the sweetheart table to rest my bouquet on. Again, Maria was a gem and told me she would take care of it for me. When I arrived to my reception site on my wedding day to walk through before the ceremony, so I could see it before guests, my heart was overflowing. What she created for my sweetheart table was beyond words and special. My mother and I began to tear. The room was amazing, my escort card table flowers were everything I imagined. Little did I know how gorgeous the ceremony site would be! Maria and the team created a picture perfect ceremony to fit my 1920s vintage country club wedding. Elegant and romantic. Again, she added special touches with my aisle and aisle swag- that she filled with petals. I knew I had to let them know I loved everything and stopped by the shop after my honeymoon to thank them in person. At this time I was finally able to meet Joanna. After much hugs and tears- I was able to thank them for caring so much about my day and making everything so special. I will use them again and again for events, occasions, or just because. You are treated like family, by a family and with genuine kindness. Thank you again so very much Maria for giving me a gorgeous day that I was able to enjoy for weeks after all around my house!

    The flowers were beautiful, reasonably priced, and Marie was a delight to work with always pleasant and professional. I had no idea what to use for centerpieces or flower types because our colors were blue and silver. Marie provided a free sample arrangement for the table the day of our tasting and it was perfect! With little direction or input from us she provide wonderful arrangements. Our centerpieces looked great without overwhelming the table or obstructing views for conversations, the ceremony arrangements were beautiful and transitioned nicely from the ceremony to the reception, the mothers loved their flowers and my bouquet was perfect! The flowers were good quality, fresh, aromatic and lasted for weeks after the wedding! We spent less with her than we would have doing our own and saved ourselves a lot of unnecessary stress and running around! I would recommend Christophers for any occasion.

    Maria at Christopher's Flowers did an amazing job with the flowers for our daughter's recent wedding. We told her the budget (which was not high at all) and the information about the colors and she did all the rest. The flowers were beautiful and more than we had hoped we would have. All the flowers were fresh and hearty and she used a beautiful combination of different flowers. We asked her to incorporate rosemary and lavender from a family garden and she did that perfectly. The delivery was timely. Don't overlook Christopher's when you are considering florists. The website has lots of pictures that are Telefloral pictures but Maria does many different and beautiful arrangements. Just ask her, you will be very pleased!

    Maria and her team were fabulous to work with! I had seen her work at a friend's wedding, and the flowers were beautiful, and MUCH more reasonable in cost. I originally had thought I would just get the bouquets and boutonnieres there, and try to do my own centerpieces. About six weeks before the wedding, I decided it was too much hassle. Maria and her people were fabulous in reassuring me that we had plenty of time to pull together ideas and make them beautiful. I went once again, she had fabulous ideas for both high and low centerpieces, to save. It all looked fabulous and she listened to specific requests I had (no roses, bright colors, etc!). Everyone loved the look and I was very very pleased with the results!

    Maria did an awesome job! I didnt know how I wanted the centerpieces to look like but I did know what flowers I wanted. Her arrangements were so beautiful. She also had the most reasonable prices than anyone else I looked at.

    Christopher's florwers was a really helpful and innovative with my flower ideas. The whole staff was super nice and every time I came with a question they would asnwer it. The bouquets turned out super cute and the centerpieces were perfect for our setting.

    The day of the wedding the helped the crew set up and even ended up giving us extra vases for the girl bouquets.

    I will be using Christopher's florwers in the future.

    This is a small flower shop, family owned. The mom and her daughter run the shop and they are really nice and very helpful. I wanted to cut back on costs so I bought the flowers from them and arranged the centerpieces myself. They made my bouquet and it was gorgeous. The owner gave me so much advice on my flower arrangements and tried to get me the prettiest flowers at the best price. I really felt like she was making an effort, even though I was not going to have her arrange them and she was not making much off of me, she really helped me a lot. I picked up the flowers the day before and they had them organized and each of them had its own individual watering tube so they did not wilt or go bad at all. They are a little unorganized and it's not fancy shmancy, but they know what they are doing and they will give you a good deal.

    Christopher's Florist did an outstanding job. We had only a small idea of what we were looking for regarding our flowers for teh wedding. Maria was incredibly helpful in offering suggestions- and ultimately, we gave her a color palette, and she just worked her magic. I never imagined that I'd get very attached to my bouquet-- but after seeing the gorgeous arrangement, I wished so much I'd loked into preservation!! :-) It was fabulous!!

    The prices offerd by Christopher's were also considerably lower than any we found anywhere else in this area.
