Working with SJ at Creative Muse for our wedding florals was everything that we needed. Neither of us knew what we were looking for in our bouquets, but SJ took the time to ask us about our relationship, how we are as individuals, the vibe of our wedding and created the most beautiful bouquets, splash, and cake decoration that we could ask for. SJ was flexible, attentive, and thoughtful every step of the way. She truly brought our vision to life! Thank you, SJ for everything!!

Incredibly personalized and beautiful!
I enjoyed my experience with SJ from the start! Of all the florists I talked to, I knew she was the one right away due to her attention to detail in our initial call which made me feel like she would bring my vision to life, whatever that vision may be. As far as florals go, I knew how to describe my "vibe" but did not have any sense of what exact flowers I wanted or how to turn that "vibe" into a reality. SJ made me feel so comfortable and like it was okay to not know everything, and that I was in good hands. As some pieces of my vision changed in the months leading up to the wedding, SJ was so helpful in working through what it would take to achieve everything I wanted. My venue was beautiful as is, but I cannot even describe the way SJ and her team were able to transform it. It was absolutely stunning!

Extraordinary Floral Talent
SJ is an incredible floral artist. She did an extraordinary job working with us to establish a decorative vision for our wedding, and executed it with creativity, artistry, and joy! Our flowers were more beautiful than we could have imagined, thanks to SJ and her team. And, she’s as lovely and kind as she is talented! We are so grateful for her, and would work with her again in a heartbeat.

Floral Vision Exceeded Expection
CreativeMuse was one of the best wedding decisions I've ever made! The attention to detail, creative ideas, and flexibility really made me beyond satisfied as a client. Because I was on a budget, I was worried my vision would be completely changed, but it wasn't! SJ created a plan proposal that touched on everything I desired! I'll always remember walking into my venue and seeing the perfectly placed florals/greenery arranged throughout the room. You would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't use CreativeMuse. I'm thankful such a core memory was made because of this stand out vendor.

Loved working with SJ!
I loved working with SJ! She was communicative, helped me think out what I wanted my vision to look like and even had ideas of her own that we ended up using! I especially wanted sunflowers displayed somewhere on the day but not in my actual bouquet, and SJ came up with a great idea to display them near our signing station. Everything was exactly the way I wanted it! I always felt relived after a phone call with her too!

Stunning Flowers & Decor
SJ is an absolute pleasure to work with. I would recommend her to anyone and would certainly call her again if doing an event up in Vermont. She did the flowers and decorations for our wedding in Fall 2021 wedding (which was rescheduled from Fall 2020 due to COVID). Despite the pandemic, she made rescheduling easy, was flexible, and priced very appropriately. She took the time to understand our vision for the wedding, provide suggestions and proposals, and truly brought our venue to life. She transformed what was an otherwise fairly plain room to something gorgeous. We were ecstatic when we saw the final product - she nailed it. I cannot recommend SJ enough.

Gorgeous Flowers!
Words can't describe how grateful I am that I chose Sarah as the florist for my wedding. First of all she is warm, friendly and very easy to work with! She made things simple by asking all the right questions in our initial meeting, and when I wasn't sure of how I wanted certain things to look she gave her expert suggestions and advice. She was also extremely flexible when I had to downsize my guest list due to the pandemic and therefore make adjustments to what I needed for flowers. The day of the wedding I didn't have to worry about flowers at all - Sarah delivered the flowers to both the locations of the bridal party and groomsmen, and set up all the flowers for the centerpieces, accent plants and arbor. She even made a point to explain to me and my bridesmaids how best to hold the flowers for the photos and it made a huge difference in how the photos turned out! The flowers for my wedding were even better than what I had envisioned! Sarah's work is flawless and I HIGHLY recommend her! Thank you Sarah!

Sarah Jo nailed it!
We had our post COVID wedding in VT in Fall 2021 and I cannot recommend SJ enough! We had a couple phone calls, send a few emails back and forth and with a little Pinterest inspiration, she nailed every look we were going for!

Creative Muse - SJ
SJ perfectly created my vision. From our phone calls she totally understood what I wanted and I always felt like she cared about every detail and I knew it would be perfect every step of the way. Being an out of town bride SJ did all of my creative decor. Flowers candles and other elements were used to create an amazing esthetic. The rustic chic vibe perfectly matched my vision. The most beautiful flowers and texture elements ever for our bouquets, arbor, aisle, tables the list goes on. See attached photos they speak for themselves. Thank you sooo much SJ!!

Beautiful Flowers
My daughter connected with MJ of Creative Muse after her being recommended by the wedding venue. My daughter had a pretty clear vision of what she wanted with the floral designs and MJ came through beautifully. She was enthusiastic, easy to communicate with, professional and so very creative. The flowers and arrangements were exceptional and most definitly added to the beautiy of the day.

Everything I wanted & more!
The arrangements that Sarah put together for us were astounding. She brought my vision to life. During the entire planing process I was confident that she knew my exact vision and would exceed my expectations. The amount of florals that I needed changed a few times during the planning process and Sarah always made time to talk and make sure I was getting exactly what I wanted. Once Sarah was done working her magic on our venue, I felt like I was in a fairytale. Throughout the night guests were complimenting the florals--they still are weeks later! I cannot recommend Creative Muse Floral Design enough.

Absolutely AMAZING!!
Sarah Jo is absolutely AMAZING! I am speechless and in absolute awe with what she did for our special day. I don't think I have the right words to describe how insanely talented her and her crew are! Not only was she super great to work with she went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect and unique. She took my boho/vintage vision and turned it into everything we could have imagined and more! She decorated our ceremony and reception with the most amazing details and even added details and touches we hadn't discussed- it was drool worthy amazing! My wedding bouquet will easily be something I remember forever - it was GORGEOUS! If you want your special day to feel magical and to day dream about your florals for days to come - creative muse is without a doubt the way to go!!

I can’t say enough about this lady, she was amazing, everything I asked for she nailed it, my inspiration photos were out-done by her! Highly recommend SJ. Literally I was in awe when I walked into my venue. Much respect for her love of what she does.

Absolutely brought our vision to life!
I cannot recommend Sarah Jo & Creative Muse enough! The flowers at our wedding were truly AMAZING! After talking through our style and wedding vision, she was able to perfectly nail the look we were hoping for! The flowers and greenery she crafted took our barn venue to a whole other level - transforming it into an elegant, dreamy space. My bouquet was absolutely stunning!!! The arbor piece, table greenery, and aisle arrangements were all to die for too! Our day would not have been nearly as beautiful without her incredible eye for design and detail. I truly loved working with Creative Muse!!

Stunning Wedding Floral Designs
SJ was amazing to work with - so professional, communicative and of course, talented. She helped us bring our vision to life - all of the flowers from the bouquets to the chandelier decorations to the centerpieces were absolutely stunning. Can't recommend Creative Muse enough!

Creative Muse is incredible!!!
We booked Creative Muse/ SJ for our wedding last minute with only a ~2 week notice and it was nothing short of spectacular. (She stepped in when our original vendor was MIA.) We asked SJ to create a jewel-tone, vibrant, and very unique design, and she executed it to perfection.
People who attended our wedding have been raving about our floral, including locals who didn't even attend the wedding but could see from a distance, and saying it was something they had never seen before - which is exactly what we asked SJ to do. My spouse and I feel that the floral was one of our favorite parts of the whole wedding. SJ combined bright flowers with berries, grapes, citrus, and greenery - to create something so beautiful against a backdrop of the blue and moody Lake Champlain. Not only is she talented, but her professionalism and warmth made her one of the best vendors we worked with through our entire 2+ years-long (Covid) wedding process. Thank you again SJ for bringing our vision to life.
We would 100% recommend hiring Creative Muse for any event in the future, and we have been encouraging others to do so too!

Breathtaking Floral Designs
There are not enough words to describe Sarah Jo and her amazing work! I have known Sarah Jo for a long time and I've seen her work throughout the years. I have always known that she would do the flowers for my wedding!!! From the initial encounter talking with her she put my mind at ease! She helped bring my dreams to reality and in a better way that I could've ever have imagined!!! I described what I was envisioning and she hit the nail on the head. The flowers were gorgeous and absolutely stunning. I let her imagination run when it came to the flowers on the arbor and wow, they were astonishing. Sarah Jo's work is breathtaking and you won't regret working with her. Thank you Sarah Jo for helping to make our wedding day perfect!!!

Creative, warm, and professional!
From my first phone call with SJ, I felt instantly connected. She spent over an hour on the phone with me before I had even signed on to work with her to get a sense of my vision for the day, and the feeling that I wanted to create (above and beyond the florals). She is professional, creative, a true artist, and simply a pleasure to work with,. I highly recommend working with her to create you vision!

Made my dreams come true!
Hiring Sarah Jo as our florist was one of the best decisions I made. I can be quite indecisive and she was so friendly and accommodating throughout the entire process.
I had a specific vision in mind which included dramatic drapery throughout a barn and Sarah Jo was up for the challenge. She absolutely killed it! Everything came out BETTER than I had envisioned. I can't recommend her enough!

Stunning, elegant, and professional
Sarah Jo and Creative Muse created a stunning arrangement of flowers for our big day, and I couldn't be happier. Not knowing much about flowers or what was needed for the day, I gave her a simple idea of what I liked, and she turned it into a gorgeous, elegant scene of flowers. The floral arrangements elevated everything around them, and the quality was better than I could have ever expected. If you are looking for flowers for any occasion, consider yourself lucky if you use Creative Muse!

Perfection. That is about the best word I can use to describe our entire experience working with Sarah Jo at Creative Muse Floral Design. From start to finish, this was exactly what you want a vendor experience to be. When we started the process, we had no clue what we really wanted our day to look like. She had an amazing process to listen to us and help us discern exactly what we wanted. She came back with an initial design that didn't hit the right note, but it helped us realize what we liked and did not like. She came back with a second design. I asked for bold and boy did she give it to me. This time the palette was perfect, but the designs were a bit too much for our small gathering. The third time, she got it just right. It was exactly what we were looking for in a floral presentation. We were thousands of miles a way, and she was putting us at ease. She kept in regular communication. We happened to be near her about 4 months before the wedding and got to meet her. You know how you meet someone and you just know a match is perfect? That is what it felt like meeting with her in person. Within seconds, I could tell I loved her vibe. She continued to refine the concept during our conversation. She gave us tips about the venue and other vendors. It was simply incredible. The week of the wedding she kept sending amazing emails and texts cheering us on and giving us updates. Her message the day before the ceremony when she purchased many of the flowers told me that our day would be perfect. And it was! Stunning does not even capture how she made us look. Everyone at the wedding wanted to have their picture with our arbor because it was so gorgeous. I cannot recommend her enough. The pictures of her work speak for itself, but if you are looking to be taken care of, heard, and made to feel like you need not worry about anything, this is the floral designer for you. She gave us a day we will never forget, and one that will always look amazing in our photos and videos.

Sarah Jo was amazing! All it took was a short telephone conversation for her to know what I was looking for as far as design style, look and feel. She exceeded my expectations and even accommodated me when I called the day before and added another piece for the wall behind where the ceremony was taking place. Trust me when I say you are in the best hands with Sarah jo!

I have had the pleasure of working with Sarah Jo on two weddings. After seeing the beautiful work that she did with my daughter Merrill’s wedding I knew that when Ali got engaged one of my first calls was going to be to Sarah Jo to see if she was free to do another wedding for our family.
The best part about working with Sarah Jo is her responsiveness and professionalism. She is thorough with her initial interview questions to help you settle in on the overall look and feel that you want for your flowers. She is thoughtful about your requests and is able to put together arrangements that are truly breathtaking.
With our recent wedding I was thrilled with how everything came together. Our venue was rustic with a wooden ceiling and a large stone fireplace. Sarah Jo’s flower arrangements added the elegance that we wanted for this venue. Additionally, her bouquets and boutonnieres were all that we hoped for. The bridesmaids wore neutral colored dresses so the flowers provided the pop of color that we were looking for.
If you are looking for a person who will act as a consultant for your wedding flower needs, Sarah Jo is the best choice. She listened to our ideas and was able to lend her expertise to make the flowers for both my daughters’ wedding exquisite. Our guests still talk about them!

Working with Sarah Jo was an absolute pleasure, and, most importantly, we were blown away by the florals at our wedding and welcome BBQ the night before. First, the wedding florals. SJ not only brought our vision to life, she helped us to create that vision over the course of about a year working together. We wanted "classic" florals, but not classic in the usual sense (all white or blue and white or something more down the middle) -- our vision was more "classic" and elegant and luxurious in terms of florals you might see in an 18th century European oil painting. We had never seen florals like this at a wedding before, so there was no "template" to work off of, we kind of had to figure it out together from the bottom up and really be creative in terms of the types of flowers to include and the palette in order to bring this somewhat unique look together. In terms of day-of execution, SJ enhanced this vision and just took it to a whole other level we didn't even know existed. Our wedding florals were without a doubt (in my opinion!) the most beautiful, tasteful, happy, elegant, plain and simply cool (and even amazingly edgy with the use of color in such an unusual but perfect way!) and just totally different and unique to our sense of style. I loved the way they were so "us." Our Friday night welcome event was a BBQ, and SJ created the beautiful colorful and happy wildflower arrangements -- exactly what we were looking for. In terms of pricing, given SJ's creative abilities and the quality of the flowers she is able to source, I think she offers incredible value for the service and work product she provides. One last piece to mention (which I only learned of after the wedding thankfully!) -- we were married the weekend after Hurricane Irma had devastated the southeastern US including the flower supply -- and so at the very last minute SJ had to re-source a lot of what was included at our wedding, which she did without a hitch! Thank you so much SJ!!
