    Gorgeous floral & decor on short notice!

    I reached out to Dorothy about 7 weeks prior to our wedding. We had to fire our planner who was also handling floral and decor for us. Her pricing was competitive however the quality far exceeded our original florals, which was not something we expected on such short notice. Her staff was fast and professional with setup, and we got tons of compliments. The bouquets were incredible and the arbor for the ceremony was stunning. Everything was delivered in vases and kept fresh. I can't say enough good things about Dorothy, if you want high end florals and great attention to detail, she is the best. Her pricing is surprisingly reasonable, you will 100% get more than you pay for. She can also take care of stationary, chairs, heaters, dance floors, linens, and pretty much anything you need. Go to her first! I wish we did, but I'm grateful we found her!

    Dorothy McDaniel's Flower Market's reply:

    Kimberly, thank you for your kind words, we are grateful for such a nice five-star review. We are very happy for you both and thrilled you were so pleased. All our best for beautiful beginnings together!

    Mother of the bride

    There is no other floral designer that I would use to pull together the wedding of my daughter’s dreams. My daughter had very specific ideas that she wanted and she collaborated with the entire staff as well as her wedding planner. They were all incredible to work with and truly made her night magical and different from other events we had seen.
    Dorothy and Wes, did not let one detail go unnoticed. It was the easiest wedding to plan with them by my side

    Stunning florals for our Rehearsal Dinner & Post Toast!

    Dorothy and team handled our son's rehearsal dinner and Post Toast. It was important that our flowers compliment the wedding/reception but stand out uniquely on their own. AND wow - did they deliver! I wanted a contemporary modern feel and the flowers were exactly as I had envisioned. As a groom's mom out of state, they offered me choices and were very flexible when the space was re-worked which impacted the floral arrangements. Thanks Dorothy and Team... everything was beautiful!

    Dorothy McDaniel's Flower Market's reply:

    Thank you Cindy for such a lovely review. We are thrilled you were so pleased which makes us happy as well. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts!

    Personal Service with a beautiful outcome

    Dorothy Mcdaniel personally made sure that our vision was met. She and her team respectfully walked us through the entire process and turned the ballroom at The Club into a beautiful venue for our daughter's wedding. I would recommend Dorothy McDaniel to anyone looking to make your event fabulous. Personal service is rare these days, and it makes the stress of planning a wedding a little more manageable.

    Rehearsal Dinner and Wedding Reception

    I feel like everyone in Birmingham knows Dorothy McDaniel’s Flower Market. Dorothy is legendary for her amazing taste, floral skills, attention to detail, and her warmth and interest in assisting clients. But for anyone new to town and having an important event that requires anything from invitations, linens to florals….there is one best option…Dorothy Mc Daniel’s Floral Market. Dorothy and her team handled my son’s rehearsal dinner. She guided me through invitation selection, linen selection, floral and lighting decisions, and even weighed in on menu and bar decisions. The evening was perfect. In addition, Dorothy suggested that I repurpose the flowers from the rehearsal dinner for the wedding reception. For a nominal fee, her team kept the flowers overnight in refrigeration, freshened flowers where needed, and delivered them to the reception site. It was unbelievable. Switching vases as well to work with the colors for the reception. I didn’t even know that was possible. Dorothy and her team made my son’s wedding weekend absolutely amazing, and one I could truly enjoy because I knew they had everything handled.

    Wonderful experience with Dorothy McDaniels

    Dorothy McDaniel Flowers helped me plan my rehearsal dinner flowers, bridal party bouquets and arrangements for the reception. Everything was beautiful and perfectly done. Dorothy was personally involved with the process and advised me with her knowledge and expertise. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again in the future!

    Beautiful Flowers

    Wes at Dorothy McDaniels did an beautiful job at my daughter's wedding. All the flowers--bouquets, chuppah spray, and buffet centerpiece--were stunning! Working with them was very easy to work with and very professional. (My wedding coordinator said he was great to work with as well.) Wes listened to my daughter's wishes and absolutely delivered on them. We got so many compliments from the guests. I would truly recommend this florist; they really did a wonderful job!

    Thank you so much for taking the time to provide such a thoughtful review. We appreciate your kind words, and very pleased you enjoyed our work and working with Wes. Thank you!

    An Exquisite Backyard Setting for a Wedding

    The pandemic changed everything about our wedding plans. This was a small wedding under a backyard arbor, made exquisitely beautiful by the floral and seeded eucalyptus wreaths and gorgeous bridal bouquet created by Wes Hoglund from Dorothy McDaniel's Flowers. It proved to be the perfect site and wedding for us, intimate and very meaningful.

    Dorothy McDaniel's Flower Market's reply:

    Thank you for such a nice review Michele! We are delighted you were so happy. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you.
    All our best and for a beautiful future and marriage!

    Dorothy McDaniel exceeded expectations!

    My daughter's small wedding had to be held at home because of the virus. Dorothy bent over backward to make it as special and wedding-like as possible. She patiently listened to our muddled requests and made the process fun and joyful. We sent her photos of flowers my daughter liked and she hit the mark with amazing, unique flowers that none of us had ever seen! The arrangements could not have been fresher or more beautiful. I would recommend this team for any size event and will use only them in the future!

    Dorothy McDaniel's Flower Market's reply:

    Thank you for this lovely review Haden! We are thrilled you were so happy and that all worked out for such a unique and sweet ceremony. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you.
    All our best and for a beautiful future for your daughter!

    Dorothy McDaniel saved our wedding!!

    Three hours before my daughter's wedding, the church wedding coordinator called to say our contracted florist had left us high and dry- no flowers at all for the sanctuary. Luckily, my mother was able to get in touch with Dorothy. Despite having two other weddings that day, she created two stunningly gorgeous arrangements and delivered them to the church with time to spare! Dorothy McDaniel is not only a gifted floral designer, she truly cares about her clients.

    Update: Reception March 12
    Dorothy and her team created not only the show stopping floral arrangements for my daughter’s reception but handled every part of the event space decor. Her team set the mood for a wonderful night from lighting to linens and everything in between. They are event planners extraordinaire!!!

    Dorothy McDaniel's Flower Market's reply:

    Thank you for such a nice review Susan! I am delighted you were so pleased. Feel free to call on us anytime!

    Perfect florals for my destination wedding!

    Dorothy and her team heard my vision for my wedding day and delivered the most gorgeous florals. The arrangements and arch were better than I could have even imagined. Highly recommend! My wedding was a destination wedding and she was very responsive and professional. Great at communicating.

    Pitman Wedding

    Dorothy McDaniel was the florist for our wedding. The beginning of our life together as husband and wife, the genesis if you will. The flowers matched this title as they appeared to come from the Garden of Eden. To say we and our guests were pleased is an understatement. The flowers were fresh, crisp, aromatic, vibrant in color and beautifully arranged. To say more is to obstruct. The photos pay meager homage, but bring memories to cherish.

    Dorothy McDaniel's Flower Market's reply:

    What a lovely review! Thank you Shelly and we are thrilled you were so happy.

    Beautiful Flowers & Wonderful People

    I booked Dorothy and her team for flowers for my upcoming wedding in 2021. This team has been such a pleasure to work with and truly have an eye for both detail and design! Not only this, the team is also very compassionate and truly care about their customers. My fiance and I had to make the difficult decision to delay our wedding originally scheduled in September due to COVID-19. Dorothy and her team were so understanding and very willing to work with us to reschedule. It was such a blessing to know that we did not have to worry about anything with Dorothy and her team. We were not so fortunate with one of our other vendors, and it added a lot of hardship on top of rescheduling our wedding in the midst of a pandemic. Thank you Dorothy and team! I am looking forward to the gorgeous flower arrangements in May!

    Dorothy McDaniel's Flower Market's reply:

    Thank you so much for this wonderful review Danielle! We completely understand and will remain flexible during these crazy pandemic times. We enjoy working it all out together and our desire is for you to be happy on your special day, no matter what. Thank you for working with us as well and for such a thoughtful review.
    All our best,
    Dorothy McDaniel

    June Wedding - Out of Town.... And Invitations!!

    Working with Dorothy was an absolute pleasure!! She is Amazing and Wonderful to work with! She listens carefully and offers thoughtful, creative suggestions. I love Dorothy!! Working from photos of the venue, she planned All the flowers for my daughter’s out-of-town wedding in Georgia, ordering everything from the flowers and garland to the oasis and floral tape. Our “flower team” met at Dorothy’s on Thursday morning to pick up the flowers, enough to fully pack 3 SUVs! Dorothy gave us such complete directions, including drawings, that we amateurs were able to create a truly spectacular event. Included were two very different large wreaths, table arrangements, garland and floral badges for the two-tier staircase that led down to the lawn where the ceremony was held, garland and badges for the arbor (for the ceremony) and for the entrance to the venue. It was a beautiful wedding and we had so much fun “doing” the flowers and following Dorothy’s directions! Dorothy also did a spectacular bride’s bouquet, (didn’t think that was a job for us amateurs!), which arrived the next day, via a dear family member, in an amazing holder that kept it fresh and lovely, and she also made the boutonnières and small bouquets for the mothers. My daughter loved everything!! Wonderful compliments from our guests!! The flowers were amazing and spectacular! It was a Perfect day and.... so much Fun!! Thank you, Dorothy!!!
    And.... Dorothy also found the perfect wedding invitation that both my daughter and I loved! A beautiful complement to the flowers!

    Beautiful flowers

    I was referred to Nichole at Dorothy McDaniel by my wedding planner Whirl Events, and could not be more happy. We didn't want to overspend on flowers and Nichole and DM did not disappoint. She was very easy to work with, listening to our desires and concerns. We were especially pleased with the brides's bouquet which was an absolute masterpiece!
