Me & my mom met with one other florist before meeting Sal and immediately emailed the first person to let them know we decided to go in a different direction the moment we left our consultation meeting.
Sal felt like family from the moment we met him. He is kind, funny, personable, attentive, patient and most importantly, excited to create. You can tell how passionate he is about each individual event he curates for and watching all of his behind the scenes on his Instagram stories are the best.
We showed him our venue (Felina) and some inspo pictures and he exceeded every expectation I had on wedding day. He worked well within our budget. At our final design meeting, I basically changed half the vision and with a smile on his face, he had no problem at all!
Sal hand delivered my bouquet the morning of before heading to our venue to set up. He is such a breath of fresh air for being apart of such a crazy industry. I cannot thank him enough for going above & beyond on our day, especially setting up some extra details at the venue for us!!
10/10 recommend Flora & Dean - no notes!!! -

Owner Sal and his team are absolutely amazing!
We recently had our wedding at the Park Chateau in East Brunswick, NJ and used Flora and Dean for all of our florals.
With 150 guests and 24 in our Bridal Party, we needed centerpieces for 15 tables in the ballroom, florals for the ceremony in Chapel, florals for all bridesmaids, bouts for groomsman, staircase florals and florals for our sweetheart table and cake. We also had specific needs surrounding budget and Sal went above and beyond to get creative and work within it. Sal listened to exactly what I wanted as the Bride and was able to work with me to bring my vision to life. The execution of what we discussed for the big day couldn’t have been more exact and perfect.
Not only was the quality of customer service including speedy response time, family oriented culture and pleasant demeanor of owner Sal and team wonderful, but the florals themselves were unbelievably STUNNING! We were blown away with how beautiful the colors, flower types, and presentation were - it was one of, if not THE highlight of our wedding. We were so pleased with the result and many guests commented on the beauty of our arrangements. We would HIGHLY recommend Flora and Dean for any floral needs, they are an absolute pleasure to work with and produce such beautiful results. THANK YOU Sal & team!! -

Perfection!
I cannot recommend Sal and the staff at Flora + Dean, enough! They are incredible to work with. They are kind, considerate, attentive, responsive, and such professionals at what they do. Their work speaks easily for itself - in the beautiful floral arrangements that were made for us & all of their other brides. But what we loved most about working with Sal & the team was the comfort we felt from our first initial meeting until the day of the wedding. He was willing to listen to everything we wanted while also helping to create something unique. No matter how many times we changed our minds or adjusted what we were looking for, he was willing to listen and adapt as needed. I truly did not have anything “specific” in mind as I wasn’t sure where to start and provided very vague descriptions of what I was looking for and yet with very little information given, Sal and the team created a floral dream I didn’t know I even had. It was perfection and we cannot thank them all enough! Do not hesitate to hire this team, you will not regret your decision!!! 🤍🤍 J&R -

The best florist ever
Flora + Dean. There are truly no words to describe the work, effort, talent and love they have for every piece they do. I had a vision for my wedding and I needed my flowers to be my wow factor and they exceeded my expectations. Seeing my bouquet and the room, my jaw was on the floor. Everything is so customized to the client and personalized with thought and care every step of the way. All of my guests were floored by the flowers as well. To say everything was perfect would be an understatement. I was left speechless. Having Flora + Dean being part of your wedding day is a MUST. I would hire them over and over again with no hesitation. Thank you so so much for our AMAZING flowers and being a part of our day! Xoxoxox -

Sal at Flora + Dean was absolutely phenomenal! From the first meeting to the big day in November, his responsiveness and attention to detail were outstanding. He effortlessly brought our vision to life, creating stunning table arrangements (3 different designs) for 18 tables along with a breathtaking setup for our sweetheart table. He also made the most beautiful bride's bouquet along with 9 bridesmaid bouquets, 2 flower girl bouquets, 16 boutonnieres, and 4 floral bracelets. Every floral creation was exquisite, and we couldn't be happier. Thank you for making our special day even more beautiful! -

Where to begin with how magnificent the Flora and Dean team truly is? Their kindness and thoughtfulness in correspondence is beyond any connection the average wedding vendor will offer you. Their attention to detail and specificity in the initial proposal gave us the confidence to trust Sal to work his magic!
What Sal created for our wedding was beyond my wildest dreams. His design was nothing like I’ve ever seen on Pinterest or wedding blogs. He brought to life the true essence of our wedding day - honoring our modern vintage style while meeting our sustainability standards and budget. He made sure local NJ flowers were used in our arrangements and worked with our uniquely curated vintage vessels.
A true work of art - Sal outdid himself with the blooms. Stunning flowers of the highest quality adorned every inch of our historical mansion venue. Wildly romantic and antique with textures to grab your attention - each table was uniquely captivating. All the other vendors raved about Sal while he was onsite - complimenting not only his work but his lovely energy. The moment Sal handed me my bridal bouquet was a pinch-me moment I will cherish forever. In that moment I truly felt like a bride. We had Sal’s flowers up-cycled after the wedding by Forget Me Knot flowers - spreading love and light to those who need it most on hospice. We are so grateful to have worked with Sal and the entire Flora and Dean team. We can’t wait to use them again for future events. Consider yourself lucky if you have the opportunity to work with Flora and Dean! -

Flora and Dean, led by the talented Sal, delivered a floral masterpiece that left us in awe. Their attention to detail and dedication to creating the most beautiful arrangements for our special day were truly exceptional. I had a vision of four distinct centerpieces, and Sal not only understood my vision but exceeded all expectations. The flowers were not just beautiful; they were a work of art.
Working with Flora and Dean was an absolute pleasure. Their professionalism, creativity, and commitment to making our event memorable were evident in every petal. These are, without a doubt, the best florists I've ever had the privilege of working with. Thank you, Flora and Dean, for making our day so incredibly special with your stunning floral creations. You are true artists in your craft! -

Flora and Dean was an absolute DREAM to work with for my wedding! From start to finish, Sal (the owner) was sooo easy to work with... he is funny, personable, professional, and you can tell he's very passionate about what he does. I sent Sal my inpso pics from Pinterest and he was able to give me the perfect vision of what I wanted but within my budget. The communication leading up to the wedding was phenomenal... he frequently checked in and I was able to email or call him whenever I needed to discuss details, any changes, or day of timeline things... and he always responded promptly. Even the day of my wedding- he was early and set everything up so perfectly and quietly I didn't even know he was there!!! He greeted me with the biggest smile and congratulating me on my big day! He gave me and my bridesmaids our bouquets and showed us the proper way to hold them for photos- which was so appreciated! He came back at the end of the reception to break down the bigger centerpieces, and I couldn't be more thrilled to see him and his wife Kaitlyn and tell them how much everybody loved the flowers. My sister and mother even hired them to do my bridal shower florals months prior (which I was so also thrilled with) because I spoke so highly of Flora and Dean and they wanted to give him more business. EVERYBODY couldn't stop talking about how gorgeous my flowers were at both parties! Sal is not a cookie cutter florist- and it shows. Every single flower he chooses and where he places them is so thought out and calculated. He truly creates magic and I will forever be grateful to Flora and dean for making my special occasions so memorable and beautiful! -

Working with Sal was a delight from start to finish. We gave him an idea of what we wanted and he made it come to life beautifully and effortlessly -- the flowers and arrangements were stunning and added so much color and energy to our wedding.

Flora + Dean! Honestly, I don’t think words can truly describe how amazing their work is but I will try. Sal was a pleasure from the moment we first spoke for our consultation. The excitement and care he expressed was so heartwarming. When I hung up with Sal, I just knew he was the one who was going to bring my vision to life. Two years later, my wedding day was finally here and let me tell you - WHAT A DREAM! When Sal first walked in with my bouquet, I cried instantly. Such a beauty! My centerpieces were absolutely magnificent! Sal and his team created two different centerpieces for my tables that were both equally beautiful, elegant, and grand! My guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful they were, especially my father. During some downtime between pictures, my father went into the reception room to watch Sal put together his pieces and he couldn’t believe how it all came to life. He was so impressed with Sal and how he was analyzing each flower placement. He said he could really tell that he cared about how every single detail looked. Everything was truly flawless, classy, and beautiful. I’m so happy I found Flora + Dean. Definitely one of the best bridal decisions I made. Seriously RUN to hire Sal. You will not regret it. I cannot thank Flora + Dean enough for bringing my bridal dream to life! You are a true gift to brides.
XO, Emilia & Vinny -

I worked with Sal from Flora & Dean for my baby shower this past June and couldn’t be happier. The florals, balloons and dessert were gorgeous and exactly what I wanted. He took the time to talk over my vision with me and brought it life in excellent fashion. I’m still receiving texts from family and friends asking who I worked with and how I throw the most beautiful events. Thank you Sal! -

After struggling to find a florists, my wife and I came across Flora + Dean at a wedding we were at. Sal is one of the most genuine and honest vendors we had. The process was so professional and his ability to turn my wife's vision in to reality was amazing. The work Sal does is amazing but his flexibility to work within our budget was unbelievable. Going with Flora+Dean is one of the smartest choices you can make for your wedding or event!
