Flowers that will WOW

I was hesitant to go big on flowers for our wedding, but after meeting with Jordan at Forte and getting our quote, I started getting excited with all that they could do on our budget. The entire team is extremely personable and experienced.

When I got to our venue (Gray Gables Estate) on the day of the wedding, I was ecstatic with how the flowers turned out. I had never seen such beautiful flowers. They heard the vision I had and ran with it--it turned out better than I could have imagined. The flowers were incredible quality and the amount of centerpieces, garlands, candles, aisle decorations, etc. they did made it seem like we spent way more than we did.

Because GGE and Forte are right next door to each other, it made it an even easier decision to go with Forte because they made set up and tear down a breeze! Forte's team is creative and can execute your vision and them some!! Definitely recommend.

Beautiful Work

Jennifer’s work for my wedding was beautiful! I didn’t quite know what I wanted, and she guided me and produced the most beautiful bouquets. They also worked with us to get fresh flowers so we could make our own centerpieces, which was very kind.

Their gorgeous products speak for themselves

All I can say is that they were easy to work with and their flowers and all the displays were breathtaking. What more could you possibly want?! The flowers were quality and put together with care and effort. The staff was super easy to contact and arrange changes to my order. Definitely recommend!

Are you interested?

I had no idea what I wanted for my wedding flowers, other than a budget in mind. Forte Floral more than exceeded my expectations! We had a fabulous visit with a consultant at their shop and she helped guide me through selecting some beautiful bouquet and boutonniere options while staying well within the budget i had in mind. Forte Floral was so easy to communicate with from the initial consultation, up to the day of the wedding. I even had to make a last minute change to one of the bouquets and they were so flexible to accommodate my needs. I received so many compliments on my bouquet and the wedding party flowers, and they looked beautiful in my photos. I will highly recommend Forte Floral to any bride!

Jennifer and the team at Forte Floral did an amazing job with our wedding floral designs from the bouquets, table settings, floral designs for the ceremony and all the small touches in between. We couldn't have imaged more beautiful flowers for our wedding.

I wanted my wedding flowers to be the shining star on the decor of my wedding. Forte's completely understood and got my vision from day one and on my big day. The flowers were incredible and looked like something out of a catalog. Jen is the owner of Forte and also one of the owners at Gray Gables my wedding venue. She helped me translate my vision into a reality, Not only did she take the time to explain the different flowers to me. She also made sure the colors of the flowers truly looked seamless together. I am still having people tell me how beautiful the flowers were at the wedding.

Jennifer Agard did a beautiful, amazing job! The floral arrangements for my wedding ceremony and reception were breath taking beyond words. She not only met but exceeded my expectations. My bouquet was so much more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. She made everything absolutely perfect and memorable. I would HIGHLY recommend Forte Floral to anyone!

Jennifer from Forte Floral really did an amazing job with my daughter's wedding. She was very professional and helpful at our consultation, and delivered the most beautiful bouquets and arrangements for the wedding. Her pergola design was wonderful. Thank you, Jennifer!

I have to admit, I went way over budget with my flowers here. But they were absolutely beautiful. I couldn't have asked for more beautiful arrangements.

I am OBSESSED with how my bouquets turned out for my wedding! I submitted about 5 photos of bouquets I loved on Pinterest and was completely blown away and the bouquets over-exceeded my expectations!! I wish I could immortalize my bouquet!!!! Our only snag was when we went into the shop to choose the wrist corsages for out of town mothers... they put the bracelets aside, but then lost them, and the mothers just had to make do with what came. Overall though I really can't stop raving about my bouquet!!!!

You know how you see those other brides and they look so beautiful and you are plain in real life and you think I'll never look that good? Ok, that was me. I met with Forte to pick our bouquets and it was fun and easy. The day of our wedding came and Forte dropped off my bouquet and it was PERFECT...everything I'd hoped for.

And then...the photos came back and WOW. Ok, my dress was nice, it's true, and I'd spent extra time on hair and makeup. But the flowers against the white dress...I looked STUNNING. And I think it was the flowers. And maybe the look in my eyes. But really...the flowers. Forte is awesome.

I am still mind blown by the beauty of the flowers Jennifer made for my wedding. She took my dream and made it a reality. It was picture perfect and exactly what I wanted to a T. She was the nicest person to work with and answered all of my questions so quickly! My wedding bouquet was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. I hope to keep it safe! Luckily I have photos to help keep the beautiful alive!

Jennifer is amazing to work with from walking us through options to timely delivery and her arrangements were BEAUTIFUL!!!!! We also felt the value we received was excellent for what we paid, which seems to be rare these days! We would highly recommend Forte Floral Artistry to anyone!!

Jennifer did an awesome job for our daughter's recent wedding. In fact she did both of our daughter's weddings . She was given some last minute changes and she was very cooperative and professional. Her prices are very reasonable and she was a real pleasure to work with.

Jennifer was amazing to work with. She did the flowers for my sisters wedding 2 years ago and they were beautiful, so when I was planning my wedding, it was a no brainer to go with Jennifer for our special day. I met with her twice before the wedding and she was full of great ideas. The first time we met, she understood the look and feel we were going for and had great suggestions for our ceremony and reception rooms.

Jennifer was extremely responsive and was able to tweak the vision we discussed to fit our budget. She made the ceremony room sparkle with flowers and candles that made for a romantic vibe. The flowers at the tables at the reception were modern and creative- nothing like I have seen at other weddings. Jennifer was able to make our vision come to life, all at a completely reasonable price. The bridesmaid bouquets, bridal bouquet and groomsmen flowers were all perfect. Overall, I would highly recommend Jennifer for anyone looking for a florist who is creative, reasonably priced and of amazing quality. She was an absolute pleasure to work with.

Aside from the occasion itself, the flowers were the part of my wedding which I cared about the most and so I was very careful in choosing our florist. I really wanted complexity, striking color combinations, and unique designs in the floral arrangements, not just “balls of flowers”. Given how picky I was about the flowers, to say that I was way beyond satisfied with Forte’s beautifully done arrangements really says something. They were absolutely stunning! And Jennifer even found some gorgeous sunflowers to integrate into my bouquet, not an easy feat in January!

The flowers we absolutely gorgeous. They were elegant, simple, and just perfect! They were exactly what I wanted!! I had numerous comments about them. The lemon slices added so much to the arrangements. The owner, Jennifer even got these flowers that I really wanted but were a spring flower. THey added so much to my arrangement.

Oh my goodness, the flowers for my wedding were AMAZING. I can't emphasize that enough. We had so many comments on the flowers and questions about where they were from. Most people said that they had never seen such creative flowers at a wedding and had never seen anything like them.
Way way above and beyond my expectations. I couldn't have asked for a better florist, will recommend Forte Floral to anyone and everyone I know and I will definitely be a loyal customer for years and years to come.

This place was great! Jennifer, who owns the place, is really nice and helpful. I had no idea what flowers I wanted, and she had helpful suggestions of which flowers would be best in the colors I had. This place is reasonably priced, as long as your budget isn't too tight. I never had any problems with my order, and on the wedding day the flowers were beautiful! I would definitely recommend this place. Plus, if your wedding is at Abernethy Center, they do free delivery! :)

We spent a good amount of time with one of the florists at Forte discussing different types of flowers and colors my husband to be and I wanted. We didn't get too specific so I wasn't sure what everything would end up looking like. All of the flowers were unbelievably beautiful! They were fresh flowers that smelled wonderful! I highly recommend Forte!

Forte Floral was absolutely perfect! I had an outdoor wedding at a Vineyard and Jennifer did all of the flowers for the wedding and reception. The colors were perfect, the arrangements, bouquets and boutonnieres were beautiful and we had compliments on everything for weeks after the wedding. Jennifer was so easy to work with, had such great ideas and put everything together so well that, with all the things you worry about putting a wedding together, she just made it all so easy. Thank you Jennifer!! I would not hesitate a moment in recommending her to anyone!

Jennifer at Forte is incredible!! The flowers for our wedding were absolutely amazing. Jennifer nailed our vision to a tee. The colors were right on, the flowers were interesting and the service was top notch. Jennifer's flowers and the carpet of rose petals she created for our aisle made our wedding. We love Jennifer's work...and my husband now knows where to purchase future flowers for me! :) We highly recommend Jennifer for the quality of her work but for also being such a pleasure to work with and the value of what she offers. Thank you Jennifer!

The flowers were beautiful. Jennifer was on the site and even pinning on all the boutennieres. She was professional and careful with our floral budget. She listened to our ideas, and was able to interpret these into the beautiful arrangements and bouquets that adorned the wedding. Working with her was a great experience.

We were absolutely amazed at how beautiful our flowers turned out, they made such an impact at the church and reception. Jennifer was great to work with, brought so much talent to creating what we wanted and the flowers far exceeded our expectations. We were just married 2 weeks ago and still have an arrangement at home that looks great. I would definately recommend Forte Flowers!

We had such a great experience with Jennifer at Forte for our wedding flowers! She was extremely professional and very helpful, which was great since neither my husband or I know much about flowers. The flowers were so beautiful! We are still getting compliments on them. With all of the stress of planning the wedding, I am so happy that we went with Jennifer because she left no doubt that we could count on her. Highly recommended!

I found Forte Floral after I booked my wedding at The Abernethy Center. Forte Floral is a perferred vendor of theirs and since it's literally next to my venue I went there and met with Jennifer. She was professional and organized and I heard great things about her work. I am SO happy that we went with her because the flowers turned out amazing! After we had booked her my fiance decided that we needed something for our gazebo and I didn't have a clue of what flowers would look good and so Jennifer gave me her opinions and I told her to go for it since I trusted her and it was absolutely beautiful. The staff is also extremely nice and helpful. I'm so glad that we chose Forte Floral!

I found Forte' Floral Artistry at the Portland Bridal show just months before my wedding, and I'm so glad I did. I had another company do my decorations with silk flowers, but I was in need of a florist to arrange my bouquet, a few corsages, and flowers for my wedding cake. My order was small, but Jennifer treated me as if it was the largest order she'd had. She took the time to understand what I was looking for and made the experience so fun. I'm not much of a flower person or gardener. Jennifer's expertise and suggestions were wonderful! The flowers were absolutely gorgeous!

Beautiful: As soon as I met Jennifer I knew we were going to use her.
Her creative mind turned out a beautiful design from our cake table to our bouquets. Florte Floral was one of the best choices we made regarding our wedding. Jennifer really worked with our budget without compromising on quality.
I would definetly refer Florte to anyone looking for a gorgeous wedding!!

We loved our wedding and reception arrangements designed and delivered by Forte Floral. The tropical flowers were stunning, most of them larger than a dinner plate in the most vibrant and lush colors, and the hand-tied orchids on copper wire which hung from the chandeliers was nothing short of amazing with the candle light reflecting softly below! It was truly amazing, and to know our florist uses sustainable products, made our special day even more of a reflection of our love and values.

As I tend to lean on the conservative side of life , walking into Forte's showroom made my head spin. Jennifer took the time to get to know me and personally and worked extremely hard to design a combination of class and wild with rare variety of flowers I have never even heard of. Nothing ordinary , nothing common as so many wedding themes are. Truly a custom fit for me and definitely brought some flare to my day. You know its a good purchase when the flowers receive more compliments then the Bride and Groom. Thank you soo much Forte

The best customer service ever, and the best arrangements and creativity I have ever seen. Any theme you have, they can do it. They take their time with each bride, as if it were their first customer, making sure that your order is correct, making sure to include every detail, so that you leave happy.

Was on time with the delivery, and made the wedding reception area look like a hollywood wedding but obviously half the price.

My husband and I were married in December and Jennifer did everything she could to make our wedding spectacular! From the most unique flowers to making my crazy design ideas come to life....she did what I wanted and then some. I have since used her for open houses at my office and just sending flowers to friends and family. The level of customer satisfaction is unparalleled. You will not find a better florist!

The flowers were simply amazing. Words and pictures can not accurately describe the elegance, class, and beauty that these artistic arrangements brought to our ceremony and reception.

Jennifer did an amazing job with our centerpieces. I was very unaware what I wanted & didn't know what would look good. Flowers were the only thing I did not feel comfortable with doing myself. Jennifer helped me select the perfect flowers for my event. She offers a large selection of vases & other decor. The value for the money was fantastic & her ideas really made me feel confident. She has great customer service skills & an amazing talent with flowers.

We were so pleased with Forte Floral Artistry who provided flowers for both the ceremony and reception. Having left flowers as our last "main planning piece", Jennifer of Forte Floral Artistry was very knowledgeable of her field and helped to take my flower wishes and create absolutely beautiful bouquets and arrangements that worked within my budget. She kept ensuring us we would be very happy with our flowers on the day of the wedding, and not only were we happy, the flowers turned out to be one of my favorite pieces. Forte took care of the set up on the day of the wedding and everything was absolutely beautiful. We recommend Forte with our highest regard.

Forte did a great job with my small budget for my wedding. They were very helpful to me in figuring out exactly what flowers I needed to get the vision I wanted.

On the day of, I'd say the flowers were 99% what I wanted. My bouquet was not quite what I had asked for but I didn't feel the need to complain and ask for a redo since it looked beautiful anyway. I had wanted more a free form, trailing bouquet and not your standard nosegay which is what I ended up with. My mom helped out with adding some ribbons to the stems.

I saw Forte' Floral Artistry's flowers on stage at the 2014 Portland Bridal Show and knew immediately that I wanted to book them for my July wedding! They were unique but stylish, simple, yet stunning! We met with Jennifer and described what we wanted. She had no trouble understanding our vision. The only flowers we had in our wedding were the flowers that people carried, so I splurged a little bit and spent a little more than I was expecting. But I was speechless when I saw my bouquet! It was exactly as I imagined...exactly! Right down to how the twine was tied. And, a week later, my bouquet is still beautiful!

Professional and Talented Floral and Design Artists

We used Forte Floral for our floral and decor design. They did an incredible job bringing my/our vision to life with very little guidance. I brought in inspirational photos, but otherwise, they were left to their own devices. The flowers turned out incredible - better than I had even hoped. I was receiving compliments on my bouquet and the table centerpieces all night long.
They also communicated very well with us throughout the entire planning process, including allowing us to be flexible with cake flowers, the number of bouts/corsages we needed, and the number of table centerpieces we needed. We are very thankful to have worked with such a professional, talented team!

This florist did our wedding flowers and their work was spectacular. Originally the cost made us gasp but the end result was worth it. The florists at this shop are artisans.

The flowers were so much prettier than I imagined! They were willing to meet with us a couple of times and even did a sample of a centerpiece as we were not sure how it was going to look. Although at times she seemed to think differently to what we were imagining for the flowers, I appreciated in the end her recommendations and experience as it looked fabulous when going with some of her ideas! I would certainly recommend them to others!

Forte' did my flowers for my July 10th wedding. Everything was perfect and beautiful! We got so many compliments from our guests! Everything tied in together perfectly and I wouldn't have wanted them any different. The vases used for the stage flowers were amazing and we are using them now as potters for our new home! Communication was always easy and responses were prompt. Thank you so much for everything... you helped make our special day that much more special.

Oh man our flowers were gorgeous!! we also got the mothers corsages on a beautiful rhinestone bracelet instead of those old elastic bands like my prom corsage came on. That little detail set them apart for us and sealed the deal.

After looking at several different florists, I opted to use Forte Floral for my wedding. Despite the fact they were a little out of my budget, they worked well with my venue (Abernethy Center) and provided complimentary set up/tear down.

Jennifer at Forte Floral Artistry was amazing. She let my maid of honor and myself spend over an hour pouring over books and answering our questions before we'd even decided for sure to use Forte. She even gave me a bloom of one of the types of flowers we were considering when we left!

Forte produces some of the most beautiful, unique floral designs I've ever seen. Had I wanted something completely out of the ordinary, they'd have done it with style. I preferred a more traditional look, and they provided exactly what I was looking for there, too, with dozens of compliments from my guests.

My only hesitation was the price, because our wedding was very carefully budgeted, but Jennifer was very understanding about that too and offered great ways to keep costs down. In the end, I think I paid a bit more for Forte than I would have elsewhere, but I choose to splurge a little for the outstanding quality.
