    Beautiful Flowers, great family owned business!

    My husband and I got married on 11/9/24 and decided to use Shusas as our florist, they’ve been around for decades! The owner truly loves what he does and is such a kind man! We had such GORGEOUS flowers for our wedding, I could not recommend them anymore! Truly, you won’t be disappointed!

    Paul started off our appointment by talking to us about music and our interests, instead of just forcing expensive flowers on us. I described what I wanted in a bouquet, and he was very excited to learn that I was going for odd wildflowers instead of roses and tulips. He put together an amazing set of flowers for us that really fit my vision perfectly. I didn't think I wanted flowers for my wedding at all, but I am so glad I gave this place a chance because it really helped make the setting complete.

    The owner was very helpful in understanding my vision and budget. I didn't really want to focus our budget on flowers and he understood this, but got what I needed to under a certain price. He also, knowing about budget concerns, was upfront and honest and didn't try to upsell or push some more expensive flowers and it also gave a little unique look to my and my maid of honors bouquets.

    They did a wonderful job, had fair prices, and were honest about how much flowers you will need (didn't try to over sell). They were great to work with!

    Great Florist!!

    Paul Shushas and his team are simply the best!! Paul sat with me and my mom to talk flowers multiple times, offering many suggestions on how to do centerpieces and decorate the church. He listened to what I wanted, and suggested the most beautiful flowers, and even found a more rare Peach Garden Rose that was just lovely. Paul went above and beyond by making me a mock up of my exact bridal bouquet and a mock up centerpiece. Both were beautiful and the real things came out exactly like the mock ups! Paul even made my dog an adorable collar with flowers so he would match everyone else.
    Their team was great to work with and much more affordable than some of the other florists in the area. Definitely check them out!

    Amazing service

    the staff is very friendly and so quick to respond to emails. Paul worked with myself and my fiance to give us all that we would want and imagine for an amazing deal. They were extremely accommodating.

    We looked at various florists and went with Holmes-Shusas. They took our wedding details and helped us pick out the perfect flowers. They wanted to save us money and were so friendly!! Loved our flowers!

    My husband and I booked Holmes Shusas for our wedding the same day we met with Paul..we never even went to any other florists because we knew immediately he was our guy! He is extremely knowledgeable and won't try to sell you on a bigger, more expensive arrangement. He truly has your best interest in mind, he has been doing this for a long time and knows the business extremely well. Our flowers were my most favorite part of our wedding day, when they were delivered by Paul's daughter I cried!! They were so stunning and exactly what I had imagined in my head. We also had two altar arrangements which were equally as beautiful. Everyone's bouquets, corsages, bouttonnieres,...

    Holmes-Shushas provided all of the flowers for our wedding in April and we couldn’t have been happier. From our initial meeting with Paul, we knew everything was going to be great. He was so easy to work with and extremely helpful. We even made a few changes after our initial meeting and decided to add more flowers than what we had originally agreed on. When we went back to speak with him about it, he was so understanding! He actually didn’t even end up charging us any extra money for the changes. When we saw our flowers the day of the wedding, we were speechless – it was so much more than we ever expected! Everything came out perfect!...

    Holmes-Shusas was the perfect vendor for our wedding!

    We got flowers for our wedding party, bride, parents, and grandparents, and we also got centerpieces for our guest tables (main table used bridal party bouquets) and a flower spread for our ceremony stage.The flowers were delivered well in advance to the wedding, and they stayed fresh throughout the night.

    Paul Shusas was a pleasure to work with, and he helped us choose the perfect combination of flowers. Holmes-Shusas was also incredibly flexible in that they allowed us to switch centerpiece vases less than one week before our wedding. Holmes-Shusas provided excellent quality at a great price!

    We recommend Holmes-Shusas for weddings of all sizes!

    Holmes-Shusas provided the flowers for our wedding on 4/9 and they were wonderful to work with. I called a few florists before I found Holmes, and every one of them wanted an exorbitant amount of money for very simple flowers. I simply wanted 3 flower girl bouquets, a few boutonnières, a bridal bouquet and mini-MOH bouquet and a couple pieces for the church. The other florists quoted me at a rate I thought to be excessive so I tried Holmes. Paul was extremely friendly and knowledgable and he put me right at ease! He was able to help me over the phone since I live at a distance. Then came time for the total...I braced myself...but their rate was...

    Holmes-Shusas was awesome. My wife said she had a great planning visit. I honestly didn't go because as I fit the stereotypical mold as it pertains to flowers; i didn't care. But the flower that we had at our wedding were perfect. They were a good value, and they gave us exactly what we wanted. There was a slight issue regarding cost but we both came to an understanding and it was sorted out before the wedding. They are a great company to work with and give a superior product. Most florists will charge you an arm and a leg because its your wedding; there were reasonable and were willing to work inside your budget. Can't say enough good things about them.

    Paul and his team did an absolutely flawless job on the flower arrangements for our wedding (September 2015)! Going into the planning process, I knew that flowers were going to be an important piece of the day for me, and the end product was truly more beautiful than we could have imagined. Everything from the bouquets, to the chuppah swag, to the varying reception centerpieces, to the floral greenery on the fireplace, was absolutely PERFECT and STUNNING! Paul was so knowledgeable, had some great advice during our meetings with him, and was so patient and receptive as our vision evolved during the planning process. His team was super responsive to emails, and they did their best to bring our...

    I couldn't have had a better experience with Holmes-Shusas. I worked with Paul, specifically. He was magnificent from the first meeting! I had been having a very stressful day and the second our meeting started, I was instantly calm. He was able to bring my ideas to life instantly. He put a bouquet together for me right on the spot and I was able to enjoy those beautiful flowers for close to a week! I gave him my vision for the Chuppah and centerpieces, which would be made up of branches and leaves, and he made it happen. Paul was very quick to respond to any question I had. He was great at follow-up. He was extremely friendly. I...

    We would definitely recommend Holmes-Shusas Florists....the flowers at our wedding were BEAUTIFUL! We approached Paul at Holmes-Shusas Florist relatively late in the wedding planning process and he was more than willing to help us out for our wedding, when many other florists had already refused us for already being too booked to assist. Paul wanted to make sure we weren't left flower-less for our wedding.

    He met with us in person and spent a great deal of quality time with us getting to know our preferences as a couple, and spent extra time making sure that I (the bride) didn't feel pressured to make any decisions that I didn't understand. Every step of the way he encouraged...

    Paul @ Holmes- Shusas was a pleasure to work with! He was extremely professional and friendly! We worked together to create EXTRAORDINARY centerpieces that definitely here a huge hit at our wedding! All of our guests said they were a complete “wow factor” My mom and I met with Paul several times to get our vision just right- Paul has patience and his work is outstanding! I would definitely recommend Holmes-Shushas to any bride who wants to have a great and memorable experience just like I did!! Thanks Paul!

    We were very happy that we selected Holmes-Shusas as our florist. I changed my mind a few times throughout the process in terms of what I wanted and how much and they were very accommodating. They also did not try to oversell or upsell to more expensive flowers. They listened to what I was looking for and offered great suggestions. It also helped that they were reasonably priced.

    Paul and the staff at Holmes Shusas were wonderful to work with! We met with Paul shortly after we got engaged, and I really did not have too many ideas about what I wanted. Paul helped me to sort out my thoughts, and showed me lots of different flowers to pick from! I thought it was really neat to be able to see the actual flowers while I was there, and how they would fit together. He was very honest about what we needed, and what we really did not need. Also, there were three different price points, so he can really work with every budget. When the flowers arrived on our wedding day, tears came to my eyes....

    The service that we received at Holmes-Shausas was above and beyond any other florist in the area that we met with. They really listened to my ideas and were paid very close attention to price. I was able to choice three price points based on the flowers that I picked out for each category of flowers that I needed (Bide bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, mother flowers, centerpieces etc..) It was a great way to figure out where I wanted to spend my budget and which areas I could cut back. Deliveries to all three locations were timely and the flowers were fresh and beautiful. We received so many compliments on the centerpieces!

    GORGEOUS! My mom and I met with Paul twice before our wedding once we decided to work with them. They came highly recommended from the venue we were hosting our wedding (The International). In our meetings, Paul was very up front about costs, about what goes with what, and keeping us in line with our design hopes. The flowers on our chuppa were stunning, the bouquet's for all of the bridesmaids were plentiful, fresh and beautiful. The flowers all arrived in perfect timing for set up and photos. We are VERY happy with the results and would recommend them and use them again.

    We found H&S via google. Shocking I know, if you've seen our other reviews you can see that everything except where we had our reception we found online. We set up an appointment for an initial consultation with Paul back in May, maybe even April. He took us to his, what I'll call office. The room is small. set up for up to 5 people to sit, including him, but not move much at all. But the space serves it's purpose. Also helps that he has a few awards on the walls from various wedding review places such as 'the knot' winning 'best of' awards for central Massachusetts.

    Paul was very comforting, made my wife and I feel...
