    Douglas is truly an artist.

    I really don’t have words for just how beautiful my flowers were. Douglas was a pleasure to work with and my flowers were just perfect. It was a little hectic of a day due to the weather and not being sure where the ceremony was going to be held, Douglas stayed the whole time and made sure that everything was beautiful he even stayed through the ceremony. I would recommend him to anyone looking for the perfect florist!!

    As a bride planning long distance, Douglas made everything easy from the beginning. Working with my Pinterest board, he brought every aspect of my wish list and my vision to life. The flowers were even more beautiful than I could have prepared myself for, and the centerpieces were identical to what I had mentally envisioned. The best part, was the breathtakingly romantic chuppah which was the focal part of our ceremony. Without ever having met before, Douglas was a vital part of my wedding ceremony and reception; I'm so thankful to the amazing attention to detail and creativity he brought to our big day.

    Choosing the flowers for our wedding was probably the hardest choice I had to make up to that point. I spoke and met with many florists and after we left Douglas' I knew he had to be our florist. I showed him many pictures and he'd work with what I would tell him and brought our whole vision together and I didn't receive that help from any of the other florists. Douglas dropped our flowers off to our hotel and they were simply beautiful, the flowers were beautiful and just what I wanted if not more. He decorated our venue for the ceremony and reception. We added two larger arrangements for our stage and had smaller centerpieces for our tables. There was nothing small about them for the price we paid & I couldn't have been more happy with how they turned out, my guests loved them and have lasted for weeks since they have taken them home. If you are looking for someone to take your vision and run with, Douglas is your florist. I had so many different ideas and he brought me a middle ground and made our flowers something I will remember! Thank you!!

    Douglas was amazing! At our first meeting, we went through all of the details (number of centerpieces, flowers for the ceremony and cocktail hour, bouquets, types of flowers), etc. We even decided to use pillars for the flowers in the ceremony and a pipe and drape as the background for our ceremony - all of which he had access to.

    After our first meeting, we went for a follow up to see an actual table scape. I loved this part! He had as many of the actual flowers as he could (some weren't yet in season, so he did his best to find something that looked similar!), and he was happy to shift things around if we wanted to try something else. He was extremely accommodating. Also, when we were talking about a few other things we hadn't yet decided (the card box, chargers, etc.) he offered to help, and let us know that he has a few vendors that could assist as well.

    A couple of days before the wedding, I dropped off the extra fabric that was cut off my dress during alterations, and I also left him with a locket of my grandparents on their wedding day - since they're no longer with us. He used my dress to wrap the bouquet and fastened the locket on as well.

    The day of the wedding, he arrived SUPER early to set up the ceremony location. He returned and worked tirelessly to set everything up. He brought the bouquets directly up to the bridal suite just to ensure we liked everything. And let me say, THEY WERE GORGEOUS.

    The reception location looked beautiful. We had staggered large low arrangements with a smaller trio of low arrangements, then high candles to add height. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. I loved them! He used the girls' bouquets to put on the cake table as decoration, which was awesome. Then after the reception, he stayed until the wee hours of the morning to clean up.

    Douglas is great - a great person and extremely talented. Don't hesitate to hire him for your big day! :) So happy with is work.

    My wife is an interior designer, and so her opinions were very strong :) She wanted the place to look perfect, and sometimes it can be a struggle to find what is "perfect" with there being so many options! Douglas knows what he is doing, and it was definetely tough for Meg especially, to put all of her trust in someone else to make it happen, but when we walked into that reception area she couldn't have been happier! Walking around and seeing all of her visions come to life was a truly great experience, and seeing how happy that made her was a moment I will always remember.

    We did flowers, and also ordered tables, chairs, chandeliers, etc. Douglas seems to have access just about everything that you can imagine. Really impressive work!

    The flowers for the bridal party and the centerpieces for all the tables were absolutely beautiful for my sisters wedding Friday night. Douglas did a wonderful job taking my sisters vision for her wedding and making it a reality that suited her personality.

    Douglas was simply fantastic to work with. He made sure every detail was taken care of. My flowers and centerpieces were absolutely gorgeous. Everyone was talking about them for days after my wedding. I would love my bouquet to last for ever, it was so perfect. It was exactly what I had envisioned.

    Douglas' arrangements are so imaginative and beautiful and I was so happy that he was able to help bring my wedding together. I had a simple theme of black and shades of white and wanted the flowers to be the color pop. And were they ever!! The bridal bouquets were exquisite, so lush and full. Other than the colors of my flowers, I wasn't sure what I was looking for. But Douglas took some of my ideas and some pictures and put together a beautiful arrangement. My husband is Jamaican, but didn't want obviously Jamaican touches to the wedding. That was when my mother thought of dominoes, which were black and white, like our theme. Douglas was able to incorporate the domino pieces, putting them into the glass vases that held the flowers. It was such a subtle touch, but a meaningful nod to my husband's culture. I couldn't have asked for anything more in working with Douglas. He was able to take my few ideas and turn them into beautiful realities. Adding the finishing touches to my wedding day.

    Flowers really create the look and Douglas went above and beyond to work within my budget. The whole thing was absolutely beautiful! He is so accommodating and flexible. DOuglas has many ideas and he is so creative if you need help with that and I did! He makes magic within your budget. I have never seen a more beautiful bouquet, center pieces, flower girl baskets, aisle, boutonnières, everything was stunning. Thank you so much for making my wedding the most beautiful day!

    Douglas does amazing work, I had a Harry Potter themed wedding and his center pieces knocked it out of the park! He made everything seem so authentic and real. Doug was so willing to find things and create pieces that centered around my theme. He really made me feel like I was in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter! My bouquet was just stunning as we're my bridesmaids!
