    My experience was so much more than I expected. I brought Rosemary a photo of a bouquet I hoped she could duplicate and she got it spot on! All the various arrangements I asked for were more beautiful than I could ever imagine. I hope to work with Rosemary again ! Well done!!

    Our flowers turned out absolutely gorgeous! We were so pleased with the quality of the arrangements, the prompt service, and the attention to detail that English Rose Garden displayed. Amazing job!

    Tara at English Rose Garden did a fabulous job with my pretty simple wedding flower order - one bouquet, one large matching vase of flowers and boutonniere, and an orchid corsage. I did not have specific flowers in mind, more the style of bouquet I wanted with white flowers and greenery only. I sent photos of the freshly-picked looking bouquets I liked and Tara suggested specific flowers and greenery that would work and then pinned the details down once she had been to the market in the days before the wedding. I really liked this organic approach, knowing I would get what flowers were perfect at the time of year. Tara also advised on some types of greenery etc that would not work in the style of bouquet I wanted. The flowers and how they were all arranged were beautiful! My bouquet was exactly the right size and scale, a gorgeous mix of flowers and greenery; the vase of flowers was fantastically huge and looked stunning in my house, my Mum's orchid corsage was perfect and the boutonniere was lovely. Everything was delivered on time as per the arrangements, within budget and with instructions on how to care for the items before the ceremony. The corsage and boutonniere came with nice quality pearl-head pins too. Fantastic all round, thank you!

    Taraneh at the English Rose Garden was wonderful to work with. She is a true artist, and created centerpieces for our wedding that people said were the most beautiful they had ever seen. She is very easy to work with, gave us options at different price levels, and always did what the bride wanted, not push her opinions on us.

    I would highly recommend English Rose Garden. Our biggest priority was to stay within our budget, and Taraneh worked with us every step of the way to make sure we did that and also got beautiful flowers for our wedding. She had some great ideas specific to our venue and wedding theme, and also listened and took into consideration what we wanted. I was happy to just stay within our budget and deal with a respectful and courteous vendor, but on top of that we were 100% blown away with the flowers that Taraneh delivered... they were absolutely GORGEOUS and far exceeded our expectations.

    English Rose Garden provided Orchids for my wedding and reception in early May and the flowers ended up being more beautiful than I could have ever imagined.

    When planning my wedding I was dreading the flowers most of all. I wanted simple beautiful flowers that could stand on their own without any fillers and didn't want pressure to increase my budget or add more arrangements. I found English Rose Garden on line and set up a consultation and when I walked into the store it was full of the most exquisite orchids and floral displays I had ever seen. The design aesthetic was simple and unassuming letting the beauty of the flowers speak for themselves

    Taraneh was extremely nice, thorough and didn't waste our time. She took my requests/thoughts and didn't try to add or change anything even though all I wanted was cascading orchids for the bridal party and one strand of orchids per table. I had to go out of the country unexpectedly right before the wedding and I was scheduled to view the table arrangements during that time. Taraneh had ordered orchids specifically for my appointment, and when I called to cancel she had no problem squeezing me in the week before the wedding and re-ordering the orchids just for me the following week.

    When the bouquets arrived the day of my wedding they were the most incredible orchids, they were exactly what I had envisioned except even more beautiful than I thought was possible. We had discussed adding filler if needed but I didn't want much...Taraneh didn't add any at all. It was like she read my mind and turned the stage of the wedding planning I was dreading the most into the most pleasant experience (and best vendor) of all. It was so effortless working with her.

    Every person who saw the orchids (even people off the street) commented on how they were the most beautiful flowers they'd ever seen! I highly recommend English Rose Garden and will go to there for all of my floral needs.

    The English rose garden designed the most amazing flowers for the church and wedding reception.
    I gave the colors for my dress and the dresses of my bridesmaids and they were some how able to match the colors perfectly.

    Taraneh was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was the third or fourth florist I visited, and I was extremely frustrated at that point because I couldn't find someone who had the patience to work with me to figure out what I really wanted... until I called Taraneh! And I'm so glad I did because she was amazing. She somehow figured out what I wanted when I didn't even completely know and created bouquets and arrangements that were absolutely gorgeous... and all within our budget. I can't recommend English Rose Garden enough!

    Tarenah at English Rose Garden was a wizard. With very little notice and with limited input, she was able to come up with spectacular arrangements. My new daughter-in-law and I knew the colors we wanted, the style (simple but elegant), the venues. We wanted to play off of Cherry Blossom Weekend. Tarenah did the rest. The arrangements at both the church and the reception were show stoppers. The personal flowers were breathtaking.
    But it was the logistics that trumped all and English Rose Garden's willingness to work with us in using some of the reception flowers for the rehearsal dinner were so appreciated.
    The mother of the bride said the flowers MADE the wedding. I agree. They made a very joyous and emotional day - beyond beautiful.

    We could not be happier with the services provided to us by the English Rose Garden and the joy of working with Taraneh throughout our wedding planning. She is the only florist we met with who was willing to work within the constraints of our budget while still keeping the quality of the work extremely high and ensuring we had the most beautiful flowers we could have dreamed of. She worked with us carefully in helping us make a selection of flowers that matched our desired color palette and had very original, classy, and beautiful ideas for our flowers that worked perfectly with our style and vision for our wedding. Taraneh always responded quickly to our emails and was easily accessible by both phone and email. She was kind and attentive throughout the wedding planning process and ensured we had everything we wanted for our wedding taken care of - she has great management and was very reliable. Taraneh and her beautiful store have our highest recommendation.

    My bouquet is something that I would spent $ on. I come across English Rose Garden when chatting with my friend who got his wedding flowers from them. I really love my bouquet to a point I purposely forgot to toss it :p Taraneh, the flower designer, was very detail oriented, and responsive. She would listen to your need and customized your flower upon your request, and not being pushy at all.

    Taraneh did an amazing job with my flowers. As a bride, the most important thing for me, was my flowers. I will never forget when I walked into her store to see the sample centerpiece arrangement. It was better than I could have dreamed of. She worked with us so that we could balance the high cost of wedding flowers. Her work was outstanding. She was great to work with and her work is amazing. I highly recommend English Rose Garden and Taraneh!

    Hello, the English Rose Garden and it's owner Taraneh helped my daughter have the beautiful wedding she had envisioned. She actually said the flowers and ambiance provided by Taraneh looked exactly like what she had in her mind. I think that is high praise for any bride to be so pleased. Taraneh was able to work with us and was flexible about any changes we needed. You won't be disappointed with The English Rose Garden in Georgetown!

    If I could I'd rate English Rose Garden a 10 in terms of flexibility. I changed my mind a LOT and they were always willing to work with me and accommodate these changes. We went in for an initial meeting and Taraneh was so helpful and easy going we didn't need to look anywhere else. All flowers arrived on time and looked beautiful! Two thumbs up.

    Taraneh Dadmarz at English Rose Garden did an absolutely phenomenal job with the flowers for our September wedding. The main color for our wedding was purple and she pulled together beautiful orchid arrangements to follow the purple theme and also create a vibrant, asian feeling with our arrangements. Taraneh is very responsive - even picking up her cell phone in the evenings and meeting me at her shop early sunday mornings (I was an out of town bride and she was so accomidating!)

    Some photos can be found at my photographer's blog here: http://www.leigh-taylor.com/blog/?p=1456

    You can see how English Rose Garden really added to the look and feel of the wedding. I especially loved the Orchid walls they put together for the ceremony stage.

    Taraneh did an amazingly beautiful job of creating bouquets, table centerpieces and altar pieces that matched my vision with my budget. She was professional, efficient and able to meet my needs quickly.

    I will definitely use her for other major events in the future.

    Teraneh was absolutely fabulous. We went with a very understated look consisting mostly of foliage, and I knew right away that she was perfect for us because she got so excited, just to be putting a whole bunch of leaves together! She listened very carefully to what I liked and what I didn't like, and she did not try to push me to do something more elaborate (and therefore more expensive). She was open and honest with me about what she thought would look good (e.g., terracotta pots vs. galvanized steel), but she didn't force her opinion on me and let me choose for myself. She was extremely professional, but passionate at the same time. In the end, the flowers were one of my favorite parts about the whole wedding--not just because they looked great, but also because the whole process of working with Teraneh was such a treat. Pick her!

    The flowers that Taraneh put together were WONDERFUL! We could not possibly have been happier with how they turned out. She has a great eye for sophisticated, elegant arrangements and she immediately understood my husband’s and my vision of the event. And the bouquets were exactly what I’d dreamed of for years!

    Taraneh was also very helpful in coordinating the delivery of the flowers. With only a week left before the wedding, she got the hotel’s information and told us not to worry about planning; she took over and worked everything out so that we wouldn’t have to stress with it! This was a great relief that we could trust her as our vendor. She was even able to come by Monday (a holiday) and retrieve her equipment on last minute notice for no extra charge!

    I wholeheartedly recommend English Rose Garden. The flowers were one of my absolutely favorite parts of the wedding!

    We had an amazing experience with English Rose Garden. Taraneh did an exceptional job articulating what we wanted and providing it. Her arrangements were bold and colorful and lit up the room. I recommend her to anyone looking for tasteful and elegant flowers on their wedding day.

    English Rose Garden was fantastic - from the very beginning to the very end, Taraneh was a pleasure to work with.

    Every step of the way, Taraneh was professional and friendly. She made the process very easy. The price was fantastic and the results were beautiful. I would recommend without any hesitation. Even when at the last minute, I needed to add another centerpiece and a flower girl basket - it was no problem at all.

    Her calm demeanor and positive attitude make a world of difference. Our flowers were beautiful and unique - several people commented on the stunning displays and bouquets and we didn't have to spend a fortune!!

    The English Rose Garden saved my daughter's wedding. She thought she had contracted with another florist, but unfortunately the contract was never executed so 48 hours before her wedding we were without flowers! Taraneh was recommended and The English Rose Garden was able to provide all the flowers we needed and they were absolutely stunning! Taraneh was so calm and immediately understood what we were looking for, it was a professional miracle.

    English Rose Garden did the flowers for our daughter's wedding ceremony and reception. The flowers were exquisite - just marvelous - the best we have ever seen. The owner and staff at English Rose Garden were very easy to work with and were 100% accommodating. They provided a lot of valuable advice. It was flawless.

    Taraneh was incredibly helpful and understood my vision immediately. She created beautiful bouquets, boutineers, corsages and an amazing cake topper! I loved my bouquet soooo much that I tried to keep it alive as long as possible because it was too beautiful to throw away. She exceeded expectations and I would use her again in a heartbeat! I highly recommend this florist and was extremely pleased with the flowers for my wedding.

    Taraneh was a pleasure to work with -- she shared my vision (peonies!) and was sensitive to cost. My bouquet was particulalry gorgeous; the table arrangements, cake topper, and chuppah were also very beautiful. The day of the event went smoothly and everything was as beautiful as I hoped it would be!
