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!

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.

Amazing!!!!!
We hired Dark + Diamond as our wedding florist, and Katie and Michael did not disappoint! We already knew we loved their style based on their website, but the flowers for our wedding were even more beautiful than we imagined. We gave them a loose idea of what we wanted with very few specifics, and they totally hit it out of the park. When Katie brought me (the bride) my bridal bouquet, I was so excited because they had totally captured the essence I had described. From my bouquet, to the flowers on our tables, to the boutonnieres, everything was truly exquisite. Thank you so much to Dark + Diamond for the beautiful flowers and for helping bring our wedding vision to life!

Absolute perfection!!
Katie and Michael are absolutely incredible!!! People are still raving about the beautiful artistry of the flowers at our wedding. Every single little detail was perfect. From our initial phone call, I felt so much warmth from Katie and knew that I could fully trust the Dark & Diamond team. I had absolutely no vision of what our wedding flowers should look like, and Katie was there every step of the way to bring our energy and love into the florals. The vision board she sent, in particular, was so helpful to help me craft my general wedding colors and aesthetic. Each bouquet and center piece was unique, thoughtful, and just so special. I will never be over it!! Thank you again to the incredible D&D team for everything!

Fall Floral and foliage bliss
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.

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!

Epic floral design!
Dark + Diamond absolutely blew us away. We eagerly hired them after seeing their previous work. Their creativity, attention to detail, and intention behind every decision, created an energy and ambiance that was beyond our wildest wedding dreams. Katie and Michael are so kind and professional. Their services made our wedding what it was! 10/10 would recommend!

Beautiful and Unique
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.

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.

Magical Flowers
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!

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.

Better than I could have imagined
Do yourself a big favor and just hire Dark and Diamond for your wedding. Katie and Michael are truly artists - their color palettes are beyond stunning and their arrangements are absolute sculpture. Katie took my very loose and vague vision and developed a perfect mood board, and an even more perfect floral design for our wedding. She had great suggestions and guidance throughout the process, and was very flexible in helping make our dreams work within our budget. I saw flowers coming out of the back of the truck on our day and literally teared up they were so beautiful. They took such care with every arrangement, and were so sweet and fun to work with. Our flowers were such a critical part of our design for the weekend, and I simply could not have been happier with Dark and Diamond. I could not recommend them more highly, and hope I can find some more excuses to work with them again in the future. Hire them!!!

True Talent + Vision
I am so happy I picked Dark + Diamond to work with for my wedding flowers. They were true professionals and I appreciated their responsiveness, patience and thoughtfulness. Beyond their partnership, their work speaks for itself. Their designs were GORGEOUS - vibrant, fresh and ethereal - and perfectly reflected my style. I would highly recommend working with Dark + Diamond and have no doubt they will elevate whatever vision you have for your event.

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!

Stunning and Unique
Dark + Diamond takes wedding floral to a whole new level. Katie and Michael are incredibly talented florists and can create masterpieces to fit your vision. I was not particular on the type of flower used and I am SO glad I gave them full creative on the choices. They decorated my entire wedding venue (which was outdoors at a vineyard) including the venues' pole barn and the rented century tent. They made the space space look classy, elegant and breath taking.
Katie and Michael were so sweet and easy to work with. As soon as we met them I knew they would be a great asset to my wedding team. I have never seen such talent.. and they do it all! They were the only choice to make my wedding decor dreams come true.

From our initial phone call to the wedding itself, and every step along the way, Katie and Michael were responsive, collaborative, organized, clear, passionate, inspired, and incredibly talented...resulting in the most graciously beautiful, blended with nature (at Gedney Farm in MA. ), romantic and warm atmosphere for our daughter and son-in-law's fall wedding. Every touch was perfect, their advice impeccable. We feel very lucky to have found them (recommended by a friend) and incredibly blessed and grateful for their labors of love.

Dark + Diamond was the first vendor we booked for our wedding and set the tone for our vision. Katie and Michael helped us develop the feel of the wedding and went above and beyond to pull the entire look together beyond just our flowers. They are truly an incredible pair to work with and devote their time and energy to making you feel special throughout the planning process. You can truly see their labor of love the day of-as our flowers arrangements were breathtaking, rustic and full of life. We could not have been happier with their work and are so thankful to have had them with us along the way to our special day.

My favorite wedding vendor! Everything they did was absolutely incredible and far exceeded any expectations I had. From the bouquets, to the Chuppah, to the centerpieces, everything was beyond beautiful and perfect. I've worked with many floral companies (in my day job) and these guys are by far the best! All my guests were commenting about the flowers the next day, and I don't blame them. They helped make our wedding day so special.

Katie and Michael are true artists who take your seemingly simple vision and create a landscape of florals you could only ever dream of. From our initial meeting to the day of, they were incredible to work with! They listened to our ideas and helped us take them to the next level (even finding a vintage mantle as our ceremony backdrop)! If you are getting married in the NY area, you really need to stop looking and reach out to Dark + Diamond because they are the just the best.

Katie & Michael were a dream come true for our wedding! They seemed to understand exactly what we wanted (even though we don't know very much about flowers and probably weren't always clear) and were such a pleasure to work with during our planning process. The execution was flawless - our wedding fell only a few weeks after they had their first baby (no idea how they did that!!) and everything was perfect.
