Kristene S. Sent on 04/09/202210000/10 Stars! BEST Wedding Florist!
The best wedding and event florist on the East Coast! Chic, sophisticated and elegant are the words I would use to describe Emma's aesthetic. I just had my wedding at Le Chateau in South Salem, NY and Emma at First Blush Wedding & Event Design is exceptional! From the moment we connected to discuss my vision to the day of my wedding, Emma's design expertise and communication was truly impressive. We worked together to create the most beautiful floral arrangements that brought so much joy and happiness to the day. Our wedding arch was breathtaking like something out of a magazine and my bouquet was the most striking arrangement I have ever seen! Not only is Emma super sweet, but she will transform your wedding venue into a space your guests will be swooning over. Look no further, book Emma for your wedding now!! -

Catherine Sent on 09/11/2022Emma is the best
Emma was both my florist and wedding planner. She helped me navigate rescheduling due to covid then again because of a hurricane. She helped me when other vendors weren’t delivering what was promised. She also created wedding flowers for me for the 2021 wedding that was rescheduled due to Henri then again for 8/7/22 wedding. Both times the flowers were absolute perfection.
As a wedding planner, Emma is an absolute angel! Having rescheduled twice and having a myriad of other problems leading up to all three dates I was a wreck by 8/7/22. I reached a point where I was fluctuating between complete procrastination paralysis and extremely intense perfectionism. Emma rode the waves as though she had been my best friend since birth. She knew exactly when to push me along, when to let me vent, when I needed to be hit with the truth that I needed to calm the heck down. At the wedding I found myself wanting to hang out with her because she felt more like a super helpful bridesmaid than a vendor. When I came over to chat with her she immediately wanted to help with whatever my concern was then told me to go sit down and eat my dinner when she realized I was chatting. Haha. She was right too. I didn’t feel hungry, but once I started to eat I realized I needed to.
My daughters are currently 14 and 9. I hooe they want sweet 16s and big weddings because I want more excuses to hire First Blush. I could not recommend them more if I tried!
Her prices were also competitive. Because I essentially had two weddings worth of planning and flowers I’m not exactly sure what I paid. I want to say flowers plus planning was roughly $5000. That sounds like a lot, but don’t let that scare you away. She has different packages and is willing to work with you to find ways to make it as cost effective as it can be. I has A LOT of flowers. So so so many on the tables, 6 bouquets, fireplace mantle pieces, greenery in the tent, potted plants on cocktail tables that I got to take home…there were a lot. I could have have had less and I could have asked for less expensive types. She was willing to be flexible. She also did several tasks i could have theoretically done myself but just couldn’t. Best money I have ever spent! -

Talented Creative Professional
I worked with Emma on a romantic New England wedding. Emma is exceptionally talented. Her work speaks for itself. She is able to adapt to any circumstance. What's great, she is not just a florist, she is a true artist at heart. Her artistry comes alive through and through in the details. So whatever vision a couple has for their wedding, can only be enhanced by her touches. -

Gorgeous flowers but so much more
We didn't book a florist until super close to the wedding and were afraid of what we'd end up with, but we found Emma with First Blush and in the first phone call, IMMEDIATELY made me comfortable and reassured (a hard job for anyone honestly). She spent as much time as I needed talking w me about style and all sorts of ideas I had, got into as much detail as I wanted, which helped so much! Plus was super accommodating to our budget and gave real advice to help me reign it in when I might've started going crazy with extras that no one cares about. I still can't believe she was able to take all my random ideas and stress-rambling (including multiple calls and last minute changes) and turn it into some of the most beautiful arrangements I've ever seen. To say they were perfect and exactly what I didn't even know I was envisioning doesn't do it justice! Not only that, but she even gave advice about other decor ideas we were struggling with, something she absolutely did not have to do but did because she obviously cares! My fiance/now husband, family, and basically everyone went on about how impressed they were at how great everything looked! I wish I had more events we could work together on because that's how great of an experience we had!! If you want high quality, detailed, drop dead gorgeous floral arrangements, at a reasonable price with as wonderful honest and caring a person as Emma is to work with, you absolutely should call First Blush!! Only thing I would've done differently is book her as the wedding planner from the start! THANK YOU SO MUCH EMMA!!! -

Kate S. Sent on 08/31/2021Flawless flowers and planning!
I cannot recommend Emma highly enough as both a planner and a florist! Our wedding plans, like many others, changed throughout COVID. Emma was much more than the "month of" planner we hired her for. She was calm, professional, and creative in helping us come up with plans A, B, and C. And when it came time to (finally!) execute our reception, I couldn't have asked for a better day. She made sure every detail was attended to so that my husband and I could relax and enjoy ourselves. First Blush also did our flowers, which were absolutely gorgeous and got so many compliments throughout the night! -

Excellent Service/Beautiful Flowers
Emma handcrafted the most beautiful, understated bouquets for our wedding. They were everything I asked for, and more. It was effortless working with her...she responded quickly and had excellent suggestions. I would choose her hands-down over anyone else! -

Emma was simply fantastic. She captured exactly what I wanted and even added some extras that made my vision of my wedding bouquet even more fabulous. Even from our first phone call, I knew that Emma was an artist that took her craft very seriously and tries her best to capture the essence of her clients. I received so many compliments on my bridal bouquet. She is, no doubt, the best! -

Wedding Flowers
First Blush does gorgeous work! Our bouquets, centerpieces, and ceremony arrangements were breathtaking, and we got lots of compliments on them. Emma is easy to work with and has great ideas for special touches. Our flowers gave us a storybook wedding. I highly recommend First Blush for any event. -

Absolutely loved working with Emma!
Emma was so easy and wonderful to work with! She completely understood my vision and brought it to life. The floral arrangements, alter decor, and bridal party flowers were exactly what I had hoped they would be. I have already recommended her to many of my friends! -

First Blush made our rained out rehearsal dinner into a smash success!
Emma made our rehearsal dinner flowers possible! We were overwhelmed by a bulk floral order we made from a local farmer, and she helped transform them into something beautiful. Especially when torrential thunderstorms forced us to squish our outdoor event for 100 into our home at the last minute! Her arrangements made our event feel inviting and intentional rather than crazed and haphazard. Emma's florals turned our dusty garage into a fun, casual party venue - thank you for all your help! -

Sarah Sent on 08/22/2018Emma is wonderful to work with - she has a great eye for what combination of flowers and colors will go together and it made for a lovely addition to our wedding decorations! It was great to work with Emma, she considered our bridal party colors the look and feel of the venue and my wedding dress to make recommendations for what types of flowers to use. It was a great experience and I highly recommend! -

Excellent Experience!
We had a fantastic experience working with Emma! My now wife and I were married in the fall with dark purple as our main color scheme. To be honest, we didn't really know what we wanted in terms of flowers, other than we wanted purple flowers with a good amount of greenery, and gave Emma a really abstract idea of what we were looking for. I wanted my bouquet to be a bit more traditional and sophisticated whereas my future bride wanted her bouquet to be a bit more "wild". Emma took that ambiguous guidance and created flower arrangements that showed our individual personalities (for the bouquets) and our personalities as a couple (for the centerpieces). She absolutely nailed it! We didn't know what we wanted but somehow she was able to create and execute a beautiful vision that represented us fully. Not only that, the actual flowers she acquired were stunning! I would highly recommend Emma for any couple that is looking for a professional, personalized, and overall charming experience. -
