Katie and the D&D team blew us away as our wedding florist! The planning process was really collaborative and fun, and D&D was able to take our vague vision and bring it to stunning life. Everything from the ceremony setting, centerpieces, bar pieces, my bouquet, last-minute requests - we were so impressed and moved by how beautiful everything came out. The smallest details were thoughtful and interesting. We had so many guests approach us during and after the wedding to talk about our flowers, from the subtle nuances to the large-scale, big-impact pieces. Katie and team came to us with really great ideas, and then executed flawlessly across our entire wedding weekend. -

I cannot recommend Dark & Diamond highly enough. Katie and Michael are an incredible team. They took my very high level ideas/visions and executed them beyond expectation. From the beginning, Katie was so diligent and deliberate in understanding my vision, asking really thoughtful questions along the way. Leading up to the wedding, Katie and Michael were very intentional in ensuring that the floral design lined up with the rest of the tables/design. On the day of the wedding, my jaw consistently dropped when I saw the incredible work that they did. In the six months since our wedding, I have received countless compliments about the flowers at our wedding, including from my cousin's husband, who is a florist in India and was in awe of Katie and Michael's work. I would hire Dark & Diamond again in a heartbeat! -

Katie is an exceptional artist, and a joy to work with! We ordered a bouquet and 4 boutonnières for our wedding in Windham, NY in June 2023, and even though it was a small order in peak wedding season, she took immense care in working with us, and even hand delivered the flowers herself.
My dress had a floral print, and Katie worked with me to identify and source flowers that matched the dress. I’m so grateful for her and her work! I highly recommend you work with her! -

I knew I loved D&D from the first Instagram post I saw but what I couldn’t imagine is that Katie could pull together what I was picturing in my mind and couldn’t verbalize properly! Flowers were a very important part of our decor and as a non-traditional bride I wanted to work with a creative, inspiring and unique florist. Katie (& Michael) are all of those things as well as professional, knowledgeable and super easy to work with! -

What a great experience working with Dark + Diamond. We basically put the whole vision of our wedding into their hands. We didn't really have a color palate we wanted to use, so we told them "you're the professionals, do what you think will look good" and they did not disappoint. The colors were vibrant and the overall look of the wedding was exactly what we envisioned. Unique and different than any other wedding we've seen and it was perfect. -

Katie and Michael are phenomenal. If I could give them 10 stars, we would! We created a palate of colors together and a few specific ideas, and they took it artistically above and beyond our wildest fall dreams. I received so many complements on how gorgeous her arrangements, table bud vases, and incredible floral chandelier were. They are kind, punctual, specific but concise (important on your busy big day) and just TALENTED. Highly highly Highly recommend. -

Katie is a true artist and made all my floral dreams come true!
As soon as I engaged with her and received the initial proposal I knew she was the right florist for us. Her work is so unique and beautiful and she immediately captured my vision for the wedding - romantic, timeless florals.
We were originally supposed to work together for a Spring 2020 wedding - when it was derailed due to COVID-19, she was incredibly flexible in accommodating what originally was a rebooking and then became a full pivot to a micro-wedding. She worked with me to scale down the florals but still give me the look/feel that I wanted. As you can see in the pictures, the flowers were literally breathtaking. All of my guests (and friends who had to view photos due to capacity limits) commented on how unique and special the flowers were. I remember telling Katie that I wanted to feel like I was walking through a meadow as I walked down the aisle, and she delivered! The floral curtain was stunning and a showstopper, as were all the table arrangements.
I couldn't have been happier to have Katie and Dark + Diamond part of our day and look forward to working with her again once we have a larger reception in the future! -

Dark and Diamond were excellent
Katie and Michael were so great to work with. They were extremely easy to communicate with, and understood what we were interested in based on our limited knowledge of floral design. They gave our vision life and personality that was even better than we could have imagined.
They were especially helpful in explaining our options for how we could use flowers in the various spaces, and also helped us to think about how we could repurpose some following our ceremony. This was great as we had a small wedding and still wanted to fill our venue.
The flowers were beautiful and the experience was stress free. Wonderful all around! -

Summer Solstice Wedding Flowers!
Katie and her team did an amazing job with the flowers for our wedding. She’s a total professional, and if you let her do her thing she will make flower magic! I wanted colorful wildflower summer solstice vibes for our wedding and Katie’s mood board had me excited but I can’t say I was prepared for how gorgeous everything turned out. As the bridal party and I were all getting ready I had to take a quick trip outside to the reception tent to peek at the flowers and they were just SO good. One of my favorite things we did was ask Katie and her team to move the ceremony arch after the ceremony and group photos so that we could repurpose it as our photobooth backdrop. Katie was super responsive even as we made some changes in the weeks leading up to the wedding. And she made the best flower collars for my dogs 😍 The photos speak for themselves! -

Stunning Florals!
I can't say enough positive things about Katie and her team. As the bride, the wedding day was a complete blur and I only had moments to admire how efficiently Katie and her team executed the most stunning florals for our day. I had a pretty specific vision and I was unsure if I had communicated it properly; but on the day, I felt like Katie intuited my dreams and improved upon them - the florals were absolutely stunning and just what I had hoped for! We got many compliments on them and specifically our dance floor arrangement of garlands. I was told numerous times it was the best wedding a guest had ever attended, in no small part thanks to the seamless execution of my vision by professionals like Katie and her team. THANK YOU. -

There are no words!
I actually have no words to describe the genius that is Katie + Michael. They are incredibly talented humans with hearts of gold and a beautiful and fun child that is the kindest! My now husband and I "joked" that they were our best vendor, but we know there an be a little truth in jest. Seriously, Katie + Michael were a dream to work with and knew exactly how to execute the vision we had. They created a magical experience for the most important day of our lives and we will be forever grateful! -

Flower Magic
Dark + Diamond's work for our wedding was a dream come true. Beyond our wildest dreams, even. They took our initial direction + inspiration and expanded on it to put together the most spectacular floral installations I've ever seen. Our ceremony floral installation looked like someone had tapped a magic wand and it had just erupted from the earth in bloom. Everything felt wild, natural, and perfect. And beyond that, Kiki + Michael are such lovely humans and made the whole process so easy and fun. I can't recommend them highly enough. -

Beautiful bouquet for a fall wedding
Katie and Michael were such a joy to work with. We had a small elopement and Katie kindly agreed to make just my bouquet and a boutonniere for my husband. We eloped in the Fall in a field, and I wanted my bouquet to look wild and fit in with the gorgeous changing leaves. Katie nailed the assignment and everyone who looks at out photos comments on how beautiful my bouquet was. -

Best florals I've ever seen
Where do I start? Katie and the team were professional, kind, and a dream to work with. Most importantly for a florist, though, she completely understood our vision and elevated it. I never thought I would try to get our wedding published, but with their beautiful designs, I think I can. -

Incredibly creative, modern, and wonderful!
It's hard to find the words to describe how incredible working with Dark + Diamond was for our wedding. Like so many, we originally had a big wedding planned for this summer that we had to cancel due to COVID-19. We pivoted to a small wedding with just family, but we knew our floral element would be just as important. Katie was so understanding and totally worked with us to scale down our vision and create something that fit our new outdoor venue. My bouquet was the most spectacular I've ever seen - she brilliantly pulled together gorgeous individual flowers with wildflowers and lots of greenery. The number of compliments I have received about our flowers has been basically endless -- it is nonstop with every photo we share. She also created bud vases for our (small) tables for our guests, which were abundant and overflowing with color and texture. In addition, she found a way to turn an empty patch of grass for our ceremony into a meadow of color and wildflowers. So special!
I can't recommend working with D + D enough. You will not only experience a partner in pulling together your vision, but you will be supporting and working with one of the most genuinely lovely and talented people in the biz. -

Dark & Diamond made our wedding dreams a reality!
Dark & Diamond made our wedding dreams a reality! We got married in an empty, industrial space in Brooklyn, so we relied on Dark & Diamond to warm up and personalize the space, and they could not have done a more elegant, interesting and creative job. Each detail was exactly what we wanted, and more than we could have hoped for. The ceremony room felt like a wild, magical garden with the vines creeping up the walls and the stunning escort card table. The chuppah mixed birch trees, wild bunches of of flowers and candles. The reception room was the most dreamy, ethereal, yet natural and organic, feeling -- just as I had hoped. Even the details in the bathrooms were absolute perfection. The result was beyond my imagination.
On top of that, Katie & Mark were so easy and wonderful to work with. Through the entire process, they were professional, flexible, creative and clear. I would recommend them to anyone! -

Transcendent!
Words cannot describe how ecstatically happy I am with the stunning beautiful floral pieces Katie and Michael created for my wedding! I am INCREDIBLY picky about flowers, and it meant the world to me that I could trust them to bring my vision to life. They were able to vividly bring the energy of a meadow of wildflowers into industrial Brooklyn and it was unlike anything I've ever seen.
They are true artists in every sense of the word, their designs bursting with creativity and innovation. Unlike many other wedding florists, they don't simply throw together as many peonies and roses as you can afford. Instead, they are incredibly deliberate and thoughtful with every design. They work outside the box, including flowers I'd ever never even heard of (like, who would ever think to use hanging amaranth???) and Katie even foraged for some the flowers herself!
Their breathtaking work was the highlight of the entire wedding for me (and many of my guests!). I can't recommend Katie and Michael highly enough and promise that if you trust them to work their magic, you won't regret it! -
