    More than just florals - a vision creator

    If you ever have the opportunity to book Shamay - DO IT. She is so talented! When I first started planning our wedding, I had a vague vision of what I wanted, and she listened intently and helped create an aesthetic that exceeded all my expectations. From big picture things like thinking through flow of events, to details like bud vases on the dessert table, Shamay had it covered. Plus, she worked to make the flowers as multi-purpose as possible, as our wedding events moved around to multiple locations throughout the day, helping us be efficient with our floral budget. It didn't hurt that she was also an absolute gem and was a delight to work with!

    Shamay is absolutely amazing! She did an amazing job on our centerpieces and went above and beyond to make a back drop out of flowers and crystals for the ceremony and covered the garden eve with beautiful garland. She was more than just a florist but actually helped plan our whole wedding look. Our wedding was the most beautiful wedding ever! We still are receiving compliments! We love her so much and couldn’t have asked for more.

    I can't speak highly enough about Shamay and her work. My husband and I live in Southern California, but we got married at my parents house in Anacortes this summer. We told Shamay what we were envisioning, and she made all of our dreams come true and then some. I don't know a ton about types of flowers, so I sent her pictures of what I was thinking and I was in awe the day of my wedding that the flowers were beyond what I could have envisioned. She was so great to work with, and when we were unsure of what we wanted for certain things, we gave her free rein and she truly went above and beyond. She is the best! My husband and I are still floored when we look at our pictures and see the stunning flowers. Not to mention what an all around wonderful person Shamay is!

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    Melissa~thank you for the opportunity to create something really amazing. Your colors and style were so on point with what was trending. I, too, loved your arch. Thank you for trusting me. You were a dream client to work with.

    Her work is amazing! She did better then I could have ever imagined for my wedding and delivered everything that I wanted plus more! I would recommend her in a heart beat!

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    Your arch was one of a kind. I am glad that after 3 sister getting married, your mom decided she wanted to enjoy the day and turned the flowers over to me. I feel honored and I am glad they exceed your expectation.

    Oh my goodness!! Shamay made my dreams come true!! The flowers at my wedding were INCREDIBLE! My husband and I live in Minneapolis, MN and were recently married in Anacortes, WA. We planned our entire wedding from a far and Shamay was so incredible to work with. She is kind, flexible, and responsive. She went above and beyond for us! She helped with so many details and always offered her feedback and advice. She was always willing to talk about other elements of my wedding as well. I appreciated this so much being that I was so far away and not as familiar with the area. We had about 45 guests at our destination wedding and our flowers were something we were able to invest in. I'm so glad we did! The flowers truly transformed the ballroom and I felt I was living in a fairytale the day of my wedding! My bridal bouquet was gorgeous. The corsages and bouts were beautiful. She also made a beautiful design installation of rose petals at Washington Park for our ceremony. It was magical! Shamay is a true artist!! I'm so very lucky to have met her and to have had her be part of our wedding day.

    Megan~We all wanted to clone you. Thank you for visiting this unique part of the United States. The San Juan Island is a hidden secret for destination weddings. Thank you again for having a budget for me to create some truly show stopping floral pieces.

    Shamay is a pleasure to work with, and has an incredible eye for design and detail. She went above and beyond to make my vision a reality on our wedding day. We received so many compliments on our flowers. I can't recommend her enough.

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    I had a love affair with so many details to this wedding. I am happy that the flowers exceed your expectations and just added the final touches to your day.

    Our experience with Shamay was incredible from start to finish. She is professional, personable, uber creative and super talented. Her floral designs are fragrant, lush and stylish. She is great at running with a theme and has a number of rental resources beyond flowers to make any tablescape and/or venue extra special. I would work with Shamay again in a heartbeat! We can't thank her and her amazing team enough for making our wedding day absolutely perfect!

    The San Juan Islands made such a fabulous background for your perfect day. I enjoyed working with you. Thank you for the kind review. Best Wishes.

    Shamay is such a delightful and artistic person to work with. Her designs, use of a variety of flowers and understanding of what you want is beyond expectations. She also has such a sincere personal touch when working with her, making you feel your event is extra special. I will use her for all my flower needs!!!

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    Thank you for your kind words. I am glad I met and exceed your expectations. I loved that flowers were important for you. I look forward to working with you in the future.

    Shamay is very helpful! I didn't know exactly what I wanted in regards to style or flowers but after a couple of meetings she had a good feeling about what I wanted. When I saw the flowers at the venue they were more than I ever expected. She was also nice enough to keep by flower budget in mind and didn't pressure me into anything I didn't really want. Loved working with her! Highly recommend!

    Classy, simple, elegant! I loved the style we create. It was so beautiful. Thanks for creating a flower generous flower budget to achieve the look and style. Best Regards. What a honeymoon!! Italy!

    I knew Shamay was feelin our style from the first Conversation on the phone.. but nothing could have prepared me for the intoxifying colors and flower choices she made. We trusted Shamay with all creative aspects and we are so thankful that we did. She is a true artist with incredible attention to detail. If you want quality and one of a kind.. Shamay is your go to. I didn't get to see any of the arrangements until I was literally walking down the aisle and the arbor was so beautiful that I found myself in awe. Thank you Shamay. It was my pleasure working with you!

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    Thank you for letting me be so creative! I appreciate that you recognized that to achieve your vision it was going to take a budget that would reflect that amazing style. I felt very lucky that I was able to dream and plan for it for most of the year. You hired the dream team of vendors. It took all of us to bring it all together. Thanks again for the opportunity. Best Wishes to you and Forbes

    The flowers were exactly what I wanted (actually better) and I gave very little direction. She just "got it". I feel she went above and beyond with the quality she delivered, she also took the time to set-up and adjust the arrangements at the site, and even thought to bring some extra flowers to fill things in as needed.

    If you haven't already, take a look at the pictures on her website. I was of course a bit nervous that only her best work was shown there but judging by what I got those pictures very accurately represent her work.

    I do want to mention that the flowers she did for me were actually for my Mom's memorial service, but I found her by looking for a wedding florist (because I didn't want those awful, stiff, sad, traditional funeral flowers for my mom) and this sight doesn't offer "memorial service" as an event I could select...still, I am super, super picky and can tell you that these flowers were more important to me than flowers for my wedding. Beyond that, she was great dealing with the emotional mess I was. I had a freakout moment the day before the memorial, which unbeknownst to me was also her son's graduation. She texted me from the graduation to let me know where she was and that she would be calling me when she left there. Wow, if that isn't customer service I don't know what is! I fully, without hesitation, recommend Shamay for any event you need gorgeous, creative arrangements for. She will do a great job for you!

    Thanks Megan~ It was an honor to create flowers for your Mom's memorial. Thank you for the fantastic review and thanks again for choosing me.

    Shamay Andrich with Flowers by Shamay is outstanding. She is a true professional with a natural ability to make the most beautiful arrangements for your wedding. Our wedding was a classy Southern Wedding in Sonoma at an exclusive historical home. I showed her pictures on my pinterest board, and she not only made even more amazing flower bouquets and arrangements, but she surprised me with a few rare flowers that were really hard to find during the month of my wedding. Her upbeat positive fun personality just adds even more beauty to her flowers. I would HIGHLY recommend her. She always got back to me on time, she is organized, and truly delivered the most amazing, breathtaking flowers for my wedding. The flowers stole the show! Trust me, Shamay is worth every penny. There are literally no words to describe how she transformed our ceremony site and reception site into something from our dreams.
    Shamay is top notch. I can't say enough positive things about her. She spent countless hours on the phone with me PRIOR making sure we had every detail covered. THANK YOU FOR BLOWING ME AWAY! I can't thank her enough, the arrangements were beautiful, bigger then I expected, and just jaw dropping. She will work with you and your budget, and you will not believe what she is able to do. If you are looking for a kind, honest, fun, passionate, and talented artist to create floral magic for your wedding, look no further than than Flowers by Shamay. She can create ANYTHING with the imagination she has! It will be the best, easiest decision you make during your entire wedding!

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    I'm very humbled be your kind words. Traveling to San Fransico to get your flowers at their market helped me achieve your dreams. I enjoyed ever step of the planning process with you!! Congrats and thank you for letting me be apart of your day

    Shamay is amazing!! So friendly & accomodating. My wedding turned out beautiful. Had so many compliments on the flower arrangements. Flowers were bright & fresh so it made it great to give the bouquets to family & friends when the wedding was over. The arrangements were very uniquely done which made me feel like my wedding was one of a kind. Highly recommend.

    Shamay is top notch! Having used her services more than once, I would highly recommend her for any event. Not only was Shamay easy to work with, she was friendly, organized, and helped make my wedding a success. She took my vision of what I wanted in a bouqet and turned it into a beautiful work of art! Shamay went above and beyond what I expected and the quality of flowers was amazing. She added additional touches to things that I didn't expect from extra flowers on tables to more flowers at the ceremony site. I will definitely recommend this florist to anyone and will use again!

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    Thanks for the great review. We were lucky to snag amazing peonies out of season. It was my pleasure to add those extra unexpected touches to your day.

    I would absolutely recommend having your flowers done by Shamay! I am really not a flower person (I couldn't name any of the types of flowers I wanted to use), but she was super easy going, understanding, and helpful in coming up with a plan. She even helped me brainstorm ways to make things slightly cheaper when she could. I sent her pictures and pinterest pages of what I wanted, and was constantly updating her with more and more ideas, and she was always flexible and accomodating! I had my wedding up on the islands and she even delivered my flowers to the ferry dock for me a day early so I wouldn't have to worry about the day-of (we had a fridge to store them all in). They all looked absolutely flawless, and made my big day gorgeous. Definitely a recommended vendor.

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    2015 summer sunshine presented a few extra thoughts regarding keeping flowers at their optimal beauty. After seeing your photos, I see we nailed it. That blue popped against the island greens. What a romantic setting. Can you believe we did all over the internet and didn't meet until the day before? It shows how well we connected. Thanks for trusting me. Best Regards

    Shamay did a beautiful job with the flowers for my wedding. We planned the wedding from a different state and she was so easy to work with! I would definitely recommend her work and will be using her services again in the future.

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    Thanks for trusting me! Planning a wedding from another state isn't as daunting as it seems. I am thankful for all the communication tools that connects us up to capture your style. What an amazing setting for your wedding! Congrats

    Shamay's work was absolutely gorgeous! We planned everything over the phone (I live out of state) in the months leading up to the wedding and she made me feel more excited about it every time we talked. I don't know the names of most flowers so she had me send pictures of what I like and she took it from there.
    My favorite part was how she decorated the ceremony, she created the most beautiful interlocking heart design with flower petals that went up the aisle and at the "alter" there was an arch with a flower garland attached. For centerpieces we were going for a rustic look without being too cliche, she found wooden boxes and they were over flowing with beautiful flowers. The colors matched the purple I had picked out perfectly!
    She showed up to the venue on time and set up everything for us! She even stuck around through the ceremony so she could move the flower garland to reuse as the flowers on the head table. I have gotten so many compliments on how beautiful of a wedding it was, it wouldn't have been possible without Shamay!

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    With a Bride like you, you made my job so much fun. Thanks for trusting me! Me and my crew had a great time and were honored to be a part of your day. Best Wishes in the future!

    Shamay is truly a flower artist....I knew the minute that I saw her work that she was who we wanted for our wedding flowers. She has an amazing style and eye that she easily adapts to your personality and style. Our rose pedal aisle was just like I dreamed and my oversize bouquet was beyond words, not to mention the arch flowers that she made removable to serve a dual purpose for the reception. Shamay is a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond to make sure that we had the wedding flowers of our dreams. We could not have asked for anything more....she is simply amazing and we would highly recommend her to anyone for their special occasion.

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    IT was a real pleasure working with you. I loved all the amazing colors. They completely brought some energy to your day. I was so excited to snag peonies and poppies. Mother nature was not cooperating with us, but I as able to still deliver. Prayers answered! Thanks for letting me be apart of your day.

    I planned my wedding from out of state in a short period of time so I really needed vendors who were professional and communicated efficiently. Shamay was incredible and easy to work with! She is phenomenal with communication, easy and fun to talk with, and has such incredible talent. I knew by our conversations via phone and email that the flowers would look amazing - But when I saw them the day of the wedding I was completely blown away! Everything was above and far beyond what I imagined. I would highly recommend Flowers by Shamay for weddings or any event!

    Flowers By Shamay's reply:

    Thanks for the great endorsement. So many of you wonderful brides do plan "out of state" weddings and it feels a little scary going with the unknown. I stand behind my brand and experience. It's my job to take care of you and blow you away. Thanks

    My flowers were perfect. When I first arrived at my wedding and saw my flowers I was in tears. I would say I was skeptical of the price but in then end it was well worth. I am very grateful Shamay, you are an Artist with flowers and I wouldn't of changed a thing. ?

    Shamay was one of my favorite vendors to work with. Before we met, I was worried because I only had a vague plan for what I wanted. Shamay put me completely at ease by taking my vague ideas and running with them. It was such a stress off my mind! She kept me up to date through the whole process and was always easy to communicate with, which made me feel more relaxed. All this was nothing compared to how beautiful her arrangements turned out. They were everything I ever wanted and more. I will definitely be consulting her for future events.

    Shamay was wonderful! She really listened and took care to make every floral detail for our wedding beautiful. We had seven gorgeous bouquets in shades of pink and gold, 8 boutenneires, 5 table centerpieces, a spectacular garland of greenery and mixed florals for the alter, and two unique floral vintage purses for the mothers of the bride and groom. Shamay's arrangements were simply gorgeous. Her style is unique, classic, and fresh. She has an artistic eye, bringing a variety of flowers, scents, colors, textures, and greenery together with movement, flow, and beauty. I got compliments from countless guests and vendors on how amazing our wedding flowers were. The photographs of our wedding were enhanced by the flowers and Shamay's work made ours one if the mist beautiful weddings I've ever seen. Thank you Shamay!
