    A work of art

    Michelle at MDS Floral was amazing! My vision for my floral ideas came to life when I showed her what I was looking for. We stayed within my budget and she even gave me other ideas that I loved even more! Michelle, thank you so much for bringing my vision to life and creating my romantic, candlelit ballroom that I dreamed of. You went above and beyond what I ever expected.

    An absolute dream

    Michelle was an absolute DREAM to work with and our wedding florals completely exceeded my expectations! During each of our meetings with Michelle was she was thoughtful, creative, detail-oriented, and patient! She never made us feel rushed, even when I sat there googling flowers as she was making suggestions! When we asked for it, she gave us her honest opinion and guided us away from making choices that wouldn’t be as impactful as others. We went to her studio a couple months before the wedding to see some samples, and we were blown away! She had a table set up with a center piece and a few bud vases, so we could begin to visualize what our arrangements would look like. During that meeting, she took the time to swap in-and-out flowers, show us various vessels we could use throughout our venue, and even helped us pick our napkin color!
    Sneaking into the ballroom on the morning of my wedding, while Michelle and her team were finishing setting up, was truly SPECTACULAR. She captured my vision, and then some! I burst into tears and was overwhelmed by the beauty she created! I had a similar reaction when I saw the chapel, filled with gorgeous bright flowers and glowing with tons and tons of romantic candles!
    Michelle can do it all—glam, romantic, whimsical, traditional—whatever your vision is, Michelle will capture it! I highly recommend trusting Michelle and her team with your wedding flowers!

    Easy and Affordable

    MDS was so helpful in coming up with a design for our simple and "non themed" wedding. Michelle was professional, creative and helpful. She met with us way in advance to get things planned out and being familiar with the venue, she offered up suggestions that I wouldn't have even thought of. Everything was competitively priced and exceeded our expectations.

    They made my wedding a dream!

    Michelle was amazing to work with for my wedding! She was extremely responsive, creative, flexible, and a good communicator. She helped me bring my vision to life while also helping me shape it. I knew I wanted to work with her after our initial consultation call since she was full of ideas and also open minded to different things I wanted to incorporate. She helped me build all of my floral designs off of one example that I had envisioned. I trusted her completely as a vendor and knew she would follow through day-of. My wedding looked like a dream thanks to Michelle and I will definitely be working with her again in the future!

    Gorgeous Florals!!

    MDS Florals created beyond gorgeous florals for our wedding at The Ashford Estate! The flowers were stunning and beyond my expectations. All designs were incredible, and the florals and colors were amazing. Michelle was incredible to work with! She has vast knowledge and experience in the industry. We collaborated on many of the designs, and how Michelle and her team brought everything to life was amazing!! Michelle is extremely professional and able to help with all details down to the last minute. You are also able to see a sample of a centerpiece which was super helpful. We had a last minute change in ceremony locations due to rain, and Michelle was able to adapt without missing a beat, and created a back up plan beyond anything I could have imagined! Do not hesitate to book MDS Florals- they are INCREDIBLE!!!

    Best in the Biz

    MDS was a no brainer- i honestly didn’t even look around at other vendors because her work is just beautiful. She works with Ashford Estate constantly and is a preferred vendor. She can do anything you can think of and on any budget. She’s really nice and wants what is best for you and your day!

    The Most Perfect Day!

    Michelle and her team were a wonder to work with. She made planning our wedding during a pandemic easy and was professional, patient, supportive, and kind throughout the entire process. Everything about the flowers on our wedding day was perfection. Michelle made our vision come to life, and we are beyond grateful she was a part of our special day.

    Amazing! Exceptional!

    Michelle and her team are absolutely amazing! My family had the pleasure of working with her for my sisters wedding at Mallard in 2016. She made my sisters wedding day absolutely stunning, and I couldn’t wait to use her for mine! She went all the way up to Pleasantdale Chateau for me, and made the ballroom so magical! My bouquet was stunning cascading orchids and the bridemaids had the most beautiful white bouquets. When I walked into the ballroom, I cried. My centerpieces were GORGEOUS!! Michelle and her team are extremely talented and caring! I had 7 different wedding dates due to covid and she was always so attentive to make the new date work!! Thank you MDS, I am so happy you were apart of my special day!

    MDS Floral Designs's reply:

    Hi Annelise.
    Thank you so much for the awesome review! I absolutely love your family and I am so happy through all the covid nightmares we were able to make it all work! I hope to work together again in the future. Best wishes.

    If you don't work with Michelle I feel bad for you. Planning and having the opportunity to work with Michelle was a dream come true. I put 100% trust in her expertise and talent and the outcome was exactly what I envisioned and dreamt my dream wedding would be. She is amazing, and makes your planning process easy, breezy and all around wonderful. If I had the chance I would do it 100 more times just to have the experience that I had working with her from start to finish. A wedding is not a wedding without MDS FLORAL DESIGNS.

    MDS is by far the best florist out there. Michelle is professional, sweet and her work is off the charts. I couldn't be more happy with how BEAUTIFUL the flowers were for our wedding. They were fresh, and vibrant and EXACTLY what we dreamed of and more. Saying shes is the best would be an understatement. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER! I promise you wont be disappointed!!

    People are still talking about our flowers

    Michelle’s work is absolutely outstanding. She was easy to work with and already knew our venue (the Ashford Estate) inside and out so she knew what we would need. I also came with lots of ideas and she was able to execute things better than my inspiration photos! Thank you Michelle!!

    Amazing flowers and decor

    We loved working with Michelle! She did a beautiful job with our flower arrangements. We had our rehearsal dinner at our house. She came to decorate our house and multiple people who attended told us they can picture having a wedding at our house because of the decor! She worked closely with our venue and church and did a beautiful job decorating both. She was amazing and will definitely use her for future events!

    Hi Dana. Thank you and congratulations!! It was so great working with you and your family. I really appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. Best wishes and hope to work with you again some time.

    I absolutely loooooooved working with Michelle. My flowers were everything that I hoped for. Her attention to detail and sending pictures and a detailed description of exactly what I wanted (because I would add details every other day) was so helpful for me to picture what I would have the day of. I work in the wedding industry and I can say she by far beats anyother florist in NYC. My Bouquet I can’t even describe :). I told my (husband) I wish to have the same bouquet at every anniversary we have. They just made me so happy!!!!

    Michelle and her team at MDS Floral did a phenomenal job with the floral design & decor for our wedding! The process from the booking through to the big day went so smooth. Michelle was always available to answer questions and offer great suggestions. Michelle, was away on the big day but her team was able to execute the set up flawlessly! Our guests were amazed with the gorgeous arrangements as much as we were! I also got my jewelry from her boutique that complimented my gown perfectly. I couldn’t image any of it turning out better. It really was beyond what I could have dreamed of. I am so grateful I was able to work with MDS for our wedding. I HIGHLY recommend MDS and her incredibly talented team of designers. Thank you so much to all of you!!!

    Michelle was such a pleasure to work with! Before the wedding, we had such productive meetings and I felt so at ease because she knew exactly what I wanted just from a quick look at pictures and a conversation. The flowers on the wedding day were breathtaking and everything was done to perfection. I could not thank Michelle and her team enough!!

    Michelle from MDS designed the flowers for my August 5 2017 wedding at Mallard Island Yacht Club and we could not be happier. Michelle transformed an already beautiful space into a complete fairytale. The amount of compliments I've been receiving from guests about the flowers has been nonstop. I am still in shock over how talented she is! You MUST book Michelle as soon as possible for your wedding, she is not only talented but is a pleasure to work with! Thank you Michelle for making my wedding day a fairytale! Your work belongs in every magazine!! :)

    MDS Floral did a beautiful job with the flowers, bouquets, arrangements and setup for our wedding at Bonnet Island Estate. It was a pleasure working with Michelle who is professional, flexible and knowledgeable. MDS Floral is a preferred vendor at Bonnet Island Estate and made sure that we were thinking of every detail and didn’t miss anything. Everything was stunning and just as I had pictured in my head. Thank you Michelle and team for making my vision come to life! We highly recommend MDS Floral for your wedding.

    The flowers for our wedding and reception were absolutely beautiful!! Michelle and her team at MDS did a phenomenal job!! From the bouquets to the centerpieces to the floral arrangements for the church, everything was so well done!! She was so easy and enjoyable to work with and was very attentive to what I was looking for and the style I wanted. She was also very patient with me with all of my changes that I had throughout the process. Michelle was also very accommodating with meeting with me to go over and show me mock ups of what I was envisioning to make sure we were on the same page. Everyone at the wedding had nothing but great things to say about the flowers, guest were excited to bring the beautiful center pieces home so they could continue to enjoy them. Thank you for bringing such beauty to our wedding Michelle!

    Highly recommend Michelle and MDS Floral Designs!! The arch she constructed for our ceremony was beyond stunning as well as the floral arrangements and bouquets. We were so impressed and received a ton of compliments at our recent Wedding at Sea Oaks in Little Egg Harbor. Michelle was very accommodating and professional, and got back to us promptly. Our pictures look amazing thanks to MDS Floral Designs. Thank you Michelle!!

    Michelle and the entire team at MDS Floral Designs are absolutely the BEST! From the moment I contacted Michelle about my Wedding at Bonnet Island Estate, She was responsive, helpful, and most of all professional. She really knew exactly how to make my visions come to life. When I saw her work on the day of our wedding, It was even more beautiful than I could have even imagined!! My Bouquet along with all of the Bridesmaids were breathtaking! Every little detail was perfect! I knew from talking with her over the year leading up to our day that she loves what she does and puts her heart and soul in to every event she plans, and it truly shows in the results that you get! I am still getting compliments about our flowers, and the quality of the product and the work of Michelle and her team! I wouldn't recommend anyone else!!

    I also got Personalized Bridesmaid totes and the most adorable silk floral robes from Michelle's store for all of my girls! you must check it out, you will find great gifts for Bridesmaids, Mom's, Flower Girls and great Bridal Accessories!! Thanks Michelle for making everything so smooth, and enjoyable!! : )

    Michelle and everyone over at MDS Floral Designs did the most perfect job for our wedding on September 3, 2016 at Bonnet Island Estate in Manahawkin, NJ. EVERYTHING looked absolutely STUNNING (despite some adjustments we had to make last minute due to the wind!). They made the changes so seamlessly. Everyone kept coming up to me saying how beautiful everything was. My jaw literally dropped when I walked in the the reception hall as well as the boathouse chapel where we said our vows! It looked breathtaking!

    Michelle was such a pleasure to work with - she was extremely professional, so easy to communicate with and so flexible - even up to the last minute with any changes we had to make in the 11th hour.
    She really runs an amazing business including her new store front where I purchased my bridesmaids gifts from (rose-gold bracelets) that were absolutely gorgeous and looked great on the girls the day of!

    MDS really knows their stuff and I would recommend them to any couple looking for real professional service and an amazing outcome for your big day! They are worth every penny!
