Kay was great to work with. She is very organized and on top of the logistics of things. More importantly, our wedding flowers were AMAZING!!!! I could not have pictured a more beautiful bridal bouquet if I tried, it even trumped all the pinterest flowers I had looked at. Our reception area looked great as well with beautiful centerpieces and a gorgeous head table flower garland. Kay definitely listened to exactly what I wanted and she nailed it! I would recommend any bride consider working with Kay for their floral needs.

The Highlight of my Wedding!
Where do I even start. You have no idea how grateful I am to have had Kay on our wedding team. She completely blew me away with her design. I have a beautiful picture that shows my face when I first walked into the venue and saw my dream become a reality. I still can't get over how freaking amazing it turned out. I imagine brides, like myself, come to her with pictures and say "this is what I want" and she make a beautiful arrangement with their photos in mind. I'm sure this works well with most brides, but in our case, we gave her free reign to create whatever she wanted after visiting the space and it was the best decision we could have made. She flexed her creative muscles and created something beyond what I could have ever envisioned myself. Kays design took into account the beauty and mood of the space and complimented it perfectly. As a bride, you want everything to be perfect and beautiful and for everyone to gush all over your photos... She gave me that and then some! I knew when I had my first consultation with her and saw how organized and precise she was (totally type A like me) that she were a perfect fit. I could not be happier with the way things turned out. I am forever in her debt. I’d I did it all over again I wouldn’t change a thing.

LOVED our flowers!!
Kay was AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!! She was responsive, personable (I really enjoyed chatting with her as we planned everything), and genuinely cared that I got what I was looking for on my wedding day! I was blown away at how gorgeous the florals were and I still receive compliments a month later on how beautiful it was. She checked in with me throughout the planning process leading up to the wedding and was quick to make changes as details were finalized. She had a great online site to organize ideas which made it easy to confirm we were on the same page with the decor, especially nice since we were less able to discuss things in person due to covid! She had great ideas when I was unsure and truly put me at ease! The contract was clear and straight forward. I can confidently say at the competitive price she offers, I was extremely pleased with her service and the final product - I would not have received anything as great anywhere else! She was sweet, on time, and did a fabulous job setting it all up. She goes above and beyond. Would recommend her 100x!

Kay delivers 5 star flowers and service!
Kay was absolutely wonderful to work with! My wife and I were in AWE when the final products were delivered. Kay was punctual, prompt, productive and so very professional. My gentlemen were SHARP with their boutenieres! But, the ladies... they were exquisite and my bride was purely stunning with their bouquets. Kay had a perfect rendition of the flowers with hops we suggested and the cake was flawless! Kay's work was truly top of the charts and others would be crazy not to work with her. We are thankful she was part of our team on such a beautiful day. We love her work and highly recommend!!
I was absolutely blown away by how great of a job Kay did of my flowers. From start to finish she was by far the best vendor to work with. She was very organized and always communicated ahead of time to keep everything going smoothly. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and relieved so much stress for me. Then just when I thought she couldn’t be better the flowers on my wedding day far exceeded my expectations! She took my vision and the feelings/ideas I had and perfectly turned it into exactly what I wanted. She didn’t need specific instructions on what to do, she is so creative that she can literally turn a mood and feeling/ some favorite colors into a stunning and perfect floral arrangement. I could not have had anything with the florals go any better than it did. So thrilled I chose flowers for you with Kay!!
I’ll come and add photos- I tried not to use my phone on wedding day and let the photographers take them. The flowers still looked amazing the next day though!

Absolute Perfection!
Working with Kay for florals and centerpieces for our wedding was a dream! She listened thoughtfully to what our vibe for the day was and responded with an incredible proposal full of options that we didn't even know were possible. The florals fit our wedding perfectly- right down to each individual flower and plant. The thoughtful touches really made the day feel extra special. Everything in our package was absolutely spectacular!

Excellent!
Kay is so caring and understanding! When I was in the process of looking for a florists, I had a new born and when I found Kay she understood that my schedule was busy so she worked around my schedule to work with me. That’s how I knew I wanted her to be my florists. On my wedding day, I was surprised that she showed up 2 hours earlier than what was planned. It was so relieving to know that she gave herself extra time to set up. Her work was so beautiful!!! Everyone loved the bridesmaids bouquets and my bouquet was absolutely gorgeous. All her work was beautiful and made my wedding day perfect!

Flawless winter forest themed wedding
We can't thank Kay enough for all of her help. Everything was absolutely perfect and the planning process/day of the wedding was made incredibly easy. Kay and her team were prompt with the set-up and take-down of our florals. The transition from ceremony to reception decor was seamless.
We were married during the first week of December and are still receiving compliments on the beautiful decorations and floral displays. Our guests were so impressed with how flawlessly our winter forest theme came together. Kay was always available to answer questions, make changes, and add to our order.
We're so happy that we chose Flowers for You as our floral vendor.

Kay knocked my wedding floral vision out of the park. I planned my Oregon wedding from across the country, with only email and phone correspondence between us. Not only was she SO responsive (even after having a baby!) but she always wonderfully handled my last minute changes and uncertainty. When the flowers arrived day of, I just about cried. She took my vision I sent her via pinterest and absolutely killed it. I could not have asked for anything better at all. So kind, professional and affordable. I could not recommend her more!

Kay did an amazing job on my wedding bouquet and table arrangements! She far exceeded my expectations. She spends the time to find out not only what you like but also what you dislike. She is very knowledgeable and makes great recommendations. Kay created the prettiest bouquet I've ever seen. It was exactly what I wanted. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Kay was absolutely amazing to work with from day one. She is professional, kind, easy going and has so much talent for creating beautiful floral pieces! After our wedding we got so many compliments on our floral arrangements - they were breathtaking and one of our favorite parts about the wedding decor. They really brought everything together. Even when last minute things came up on the day of, she was so accommodating and worked with us to make everything perfect. Kay truly helped make our dream wedding come to life and we are so grateful for all her hard work. We could not have chosen a better florist to be a part of our big day!

We loved working with Kay. I had a really hard time at first finding a florist and it was starting to make the planning not fun. She was a breath of fresh air and understood me. She was able to show us in person the things we were wanting and totally helped me with the vision. She is so nice, understanding and a great listener. She will give you ideas and she is fine if you don't like them. She knows the business well and was able to give us insight on things we hadn't thought about. She was quick at responding and super professional. I would recommend her again and again!

Kay Black and Flowers For You were amazing to work with! Planning the wedding from SC with the bride in HI was stressful and Kay made the floral part easy. She was always responsive and took the Bride's vision from photos and conversations and made it come to life. The flowers for the bridal party and church were beautiful and incorporated everything the bride asked for. The reception table decor was perfect! The wedding was in a different location from the reception and Kay's team flawlessly moved the church flowers to the Portland Spirit, re-purposing them with ease. I would not hesitate to recommend Flowers For You!!

I cannot say enough about Kay - We had met with a few florists, and I just hadn’t felt that any of them really listened to me. They just heard when the wedding was, and where it was and then assumed they knew what I wanted. The moment I met Kay, I knew she was the perfect florist for us. She was so kind, warm, and accommodating. I wanted to trust my vendors, so I could give them creative license, and know that they would bring something that was great. I am SO glad that I chose Kay, she asked me all kinds of questions, I gave her very little guidance (I’m not a florist, who am I to tell her how to do her job?), and she delivered the most beautiful flowers ever. She also created a fantastic garland for the Fireplace in our ceremony, that was "portable" enough to move to a love seat in our reception space, others told us it was impossible and she said it was entirely doable, it was perfect! She was professional, kind, and I was thrilled to see both her and my flowers on my wedding day. Kay, thank you, thank you, thank you!

I loved working with Kay! She was kind, knowledgeable, understanding, prepared, and a professional through-and-through from day one. Since I was the wedding planner for my wedding, I began my search looking for a florist that could hit my Big 3 List
1) Budget: My budget was fairly tight since my fiance and I were paying for a chunk of the wedding. I needed a florist who was willing to do flowers for a bridal party of 8, 11 extra corsages/boutonnieres, arch flowers, 22 table centerpieces, and aisle way pieces. Kay was able to do all of that within our $2,200 budget plus the little extra on our wedding cake with the leftover flowers.
2) Allergies: The most suggested flower for an October wedding given to me was the Lily. Unfortunately, one of my uncles is very allergic to them. When I told (four!) other florists I cannot have lilies AT ALL in my wedding due to bad allergies, they all balked at the idea.
But Kay, she didn't even blink an eye when I asked her to not include it. She in fact suggested we do not use any flowers that were remotely tied to the lily family. And from the pictures I've included, you can see that lilies are not necessary for a wedding.
3) Professionalism: As I mentioned earlier, I was my own wedding planner. That meant a lot of my communication was done through emails, telephone calls, and bridesmaids being proxies for me when I couldn't leave my full-time job to discuss different options. Kay was excellent with communicating with me and being prompt to answer all of my questions. I never worried about her getting back to me because she always would within 48-72 hour through multiple ways.
I didn't have any solid idea of what I wanted for my wedding. But after that first meeting with Kay, we came up with 80% of a game plan for Wedding Day. If you give Kay some guidelines and a couple of ideas, she can work magic. I would rehire Kay in a second without any doubts. Pick Flowers For You for sure!

Kay was a pleasure to work with! At our first meeting I described that my dream wedding would focus on wildflowers (a very back-to-nature vibe) and she made it a reality! Everyone absolutely loved the flowers! (I even had outside vendors comment on how it brought everything together.) If you are looking for someone who is easy to work with and produces a great product, I highly recommend Kay.

Working with Kay at "Flowers for You" was a wonderful experience. Her professionalism and knowledge really helped us navigate through making decisions and she is such a kind person. Our flowers were stunning and everything I had hoped for. They really helped make the day special.
