Loved Our Flowers!

Elyse from Metropolitan Flowers was lovely to work with. She absolutely got the vision we were working towards, and was flexible in terms of making things work for our budget. She made the process very easy, and I absolutely loved the way everything looked. I'm very happy to say that there wasn't a single flower-related hiccup on the day, and that was all thanks to Elyse!

amazing florist

We knew we didn’t want to spend a ridiculous amount of money on florals for the day of the wedding without sacrificing quality and creating something that added a little extra beauty to the day. When we first met with Elyse, we showed her inspiration pictures with the general vision of what we were looking for for florals. She listened and gave suggestions of what she thought would work the best for us and our venue. MPS has table decorations for rent too so besides the flowers, they also provided all the hurricane candles for the table centerpieces. Elyse was also able to use a bouquet wrap and pieces of my mom’s veil/headpiece from her wedding in my bouquet in such a beautiful way. The flowers also didn’t die for a while after the wedding was over once they were put back in water. Elyse was so easy to work with, helpful with any questions we had and responded quickly to any emails we sent.

Absolutely incredible!

I cannot say enough good things about Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange and Elyse. In planning for my wedding, I had no idea what type of flowers I wanted. I found photos on Pinterest of faux flower arrangements for my vision board and was told by several florists it was not possible to create the arrangements I wanted, but Elyse did not hesitate and said it was absolutely possible. I really left it to Elyse because I didn't know which flowers would look good together, were in season, or which flowers came in certain colors, etc. Elyse guided me throughout the entire process with patience and a great attitude. Not only that, I had last minute changes to my wedding party just a few weeks before the wedding and she was so flexible and accommodating. My flowers were absolutely incredible; better than I could have imagined (and even more beautiful than the Pinterest photos I had found!) The colors were so rich and the flowers were so fresh. I will absolutely be recommending her to anyone looking for a florist!

Gorgeous wedding flowers & chuppah

Elyse from Metropolitan Plant & Flower Exchange went above and beyond as our wedding florist. She created the most beautiful chuppah and personal bouquets for our big day. She was always responsive and extremely professional - she guided us every step of the way to ensure our vision came to life. Highly recommend working with her - you will not regret it!

Beautiful flowers from a talented florist

We booked Metropolitan as our florist on our wedding day in December - and we were absolutely thrilled with our flowers! Elyse worked with me to understand my vision for the day, and then took my vision and created the most beautiful pieces for the day.

Elyse is so incredibly talented and truly listens to all of your ideas. She was able to incorporate different winter and Christmas elements into our flowers - sprigs of holly in the bouquets, a wreath headpiece for our flower girl, berries in the boutonnières, white birch branches for half of our centerpieces. The beauty of the flowers just added to the magic of the day and night.

Every piece that Elyse created for us was a dream come true. She was an absolute professional, and the most kind and friendly person! Book her today - you won’t regret it!

Request Elyse at Metro!

I highly recommend Metro Flowers for your wedding! Elyse is absolutely the best. At the beginning of the planning process, we worked with a different consultant who we weren’t sure really understood our style. With Elyse, it was an instant connection. My mom and I had a very particular vision, and Elyse immediately understood. During the trial, it was like she was reading my mind as she edited the bouquets to be exactly as I dreamed. On the day of, we received the most beautiful, fresh, vibrant flowers for bouquets, and the centerpieces for the venue were just as stunning. Metro is truly an incredible value for the quality that they deliver. I highly recommend Metro, and I would definitely request Elyse!

Amazing Floral Designs

Chrissy at Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange in West Orange, NJ created and coordinated all of the floral arrangements for our recent wedding at the Park Savoy Estate in Florham Park, NJ. OMG!!!!!! She knocked it out of the park. It was pleasure to work with her and benefit from her design expertise. She is truly talented. We simply explained our vision for our wedding day. She took our vision and worked with us to create the most amazing floral designs imaginable. If ever we need a florist in the future, we would not think of using anyone but Chrissy at Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange.

Beautiful Flowers!

We worked with Elyse at Metropolitan Plant & Flower Exchange for our wedding and I couldn’t be happier with how the flowers turned out. Elyse was very easy to work with and did a beautiful job!! Metropolitan Plant was very reasonably priced compared to the other florists we met with. They offer a free sample for you to see your bouquet and centerpiece before the big day. During the sample Elyse saw that I didn’t love what was initially put together and immediately took everything apart, reworked it and turned it into something I truly loved right before my eyes. I highly recommend Elyse and Metropolitan Plant & Flower Exchange!

Awesome choice!

We used Metropolitan Plant & Flower Exchange for our wedding and couldn’t be happier with our choice! I met with a few florists, but Metropolitan offered so much more for the price. We worked with Elyse and she was amazing! She took the time to understand my vision and make sure that everything was how I imagined. One thing that Metropolitan offers that most other florists didn’t seem to offer was a sample before committing. After providing some details, we met with Elyse and she had put together a sample bouquet and centerpiece. They weren’t exactly what I was looking for, but Elyse noticed I wasn’t happy right away and worked with me to rebuild it exactly how I imaged right in front of me. In the end, the flowers were a perfect match and we had so many compliments on them! I highly recommend using Metropolitan as your florist!

we worked with Vanessa D at Metropolitan Flower Exchange to get the beautiful flowers arrangements and bouquets for the wedding. Her samples were amazing and she came up with creative ideas to help us remain in budget but still allow our ultimate vision to show through. The flowers were beautiful when they arrived in the boxes and for the most part held up well throughout the day with one exception. My wife’s bouquet was a cascade bouquet with calla lilies and orchids and the cascade didn’t hold up very well. It was losing flowers so we were unable to use them in many pictures after the ceremony itself, but they did make it right be refunding the cost of the bouquet once we alerted them, with no fuss.

Our flowers were absolutely stunning, and that is an understatement. We were working with Vanessa throughout our wedding process and she was amazing. I just can’t even begin to describe how incredibly gorgeous my bridal bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets and centerpieces were. Flowers arrived right on time they delivered them right to the hotel room we were getting ready in the morning of our wedding and everything at the venue was set up by the time we arrived. Thank you Vanessa and metropolitan plant and flowers for making our wedding gorgeous.

I am so glad we chose to use this venue for our flowers. Vanessa worked with us all the way. She did an excellent job providing us with exactly what we wanted, helped us stay within our budget and I got so many compliments from our wedding guests about how beautiful our flowers were. Actually, the flowers were quite affordable. She did not push at all into getting stuff we didn't need. When we inquired about flowers, she had me send her a picture of what I liked. Then a few weeks later we met with her, and she had a table set up with how it would look at our reception, along with what my bouquet and my MOH/BM's flowers would look like. It was so impressive. The flowers arrived on our wedding day fresh and beautiful! Thank you very much to Vanessa and the staff at Metropolitan Flower Exchange for helping to make our wedding truly beautiful!

Vanessa had a clear vision from the moment we sat down. She worked with our realistic budget without a problem. My perfect flower were chosen and ordered. I wanted romantic elegance and she delivered above my expectations. They added rose petals on our card table and sweetheart table which brought everything together to my exact vision .

We met with several florists but knew right away that we would working with Metropolitan after meeting with Vanessa. She was so incredibly accommodating and easy to work with. She worked with us to create exactly what we wanted and truly brought our vision to life. She was so responsive to all of our feedback and made each change we requested. She even created a beautiful flower crown for my maid of honor. We loved the opportunity to have a preview of our flowers and tweak anything we weren't in love with. On the day of our wedding, our flowers turned out even more beautiful than we imagined. We were so happy working with Vanessa and Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange and would recommend their services to anyone.

I had a fantastic experience working with Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange working with Vanessa. She was so fun to work with and had amazing ideas. She really listened to what I was looking for with my flowers and worked with me until the arrangement samples were perfect. The day of the wedding everything was even more beautiful than I could have imagined from the bouquets to the church and finally the reception. The flowers were such great quality too that family members said they lasted weeks at their homes after the wedding. I highly recommend this place for your flowers!!

I had a lot of people tell me the flowers were the hardest part, and the first month looking into flowers I believed them. All artsy florists creating designs and sending me outrageous pricing sheets I felt doomed! Then we came across Metropolitan Flowers and worked with Vanessa. I gave her my ideas over a phone call and she said come in ill create them, when we got there they were close, not perfect, but she sat with us and pulled all random flowers out and poked them in and out until it was PERFECTION. This took about an hour to go over center pieces, bouquets, boutenieres and ceremony flowers. I asked her when we were done if we had to come back she said no, these will be there as is on your wedding day. They WERE exactly what we had set up in our trial for our wedding day, but better! My bouquet was the most beautiful bouquet I have ever laid my eyes on, our reception flowers and ceremony flowers were just beautiful and she really listened to my specifications, I wanted my bouquets raised, I wanted real grapes in my centerpieces, etc.. And when I saw them on the wedding day I KNEW Vanessa really took care of them and made sure they came out like they did. I would look no further for you wedding for flowers. P.S. people were eating the grapes right off the centerpieces!! (they said they were very fresh :)) The prices were extremely reasonable, and they are willing to work with you, if I had an idea Vanessa would say we can do it but its going to bring you out of budget, or we can do this to save you some money. I Highly HIGHLY recommend this florist, it was extremely seamless, not stressful, and had a beautiful result in the end. Thank you so much!!!!!

This was the third florist I visited and at two months before the wedding, I was in a panic. I knew what I wanted and it was rustic fall flowers and had many ideas from Pinterest. Two other florists shot me down and told me it wasn't plausible and especially on my budget. Vanessa simply laughed when I told her I was panicking because I thought it would be so simple and everyone else made me feel crazy! She listened to my ideas, looked at my photos and showed me some samples. Her quote was spot on for our budget and we had beautiful, unique and SEASONAL flowers. I was adamant I did not want a stock north Jersey rose bouquet and she managed to deliver and then some. She worked in all my complementary colors and I received so many compliments for all of our bouquets, arrangements, and boutonnières. We had an early ceremony and she was able to make sure the flowers were there for our very early first look photos! I was hesitant to work with a "wholesaler," but it was even more personal than all the "recommended" florists I had been pushed to from my vendors and venue.

Metropolitan Plant Exchange did an absolutely incredible job with the floral arrangements for my wedding. From the small church pew arrangements to the high and low centerpieces at the table to the bridal and bridesmaids bouquets, they did everything PERFECTLY. During our first appointment with Elyse, she gave suggestions and looked at photos of what we had in mind. She thought about what would be in season and how to make the colors that we wanted work in the arrangements. During our next meeting, Elyse had sample bouquets and centerpieces for us to look at. We asked for some changes, and Elyse was able to pull other flowers to make our ideal look right in front of us. This eased our minds, as we knew we were going to get something that we knew and loved. Everything was delivered promptly on the day of the wedding. It was such an easy and stress free experience!

Vanessa was a pleasure to work with. I was not sure exactly of the type of flowers I wanted and she gave me a ton of options that exceeded my expectations. Also, she was very flexible and worked with my budget. Along with budget, she gave me all different options on what types of arrangements I can do and how I can make every arrangement look like a million bucks (even staying in my price range). You will not be disappointed after meeting with Vanessa, I highly recommend going here!!!

We loved working with Elyse at Metropolitan and would HIGHLY recommend her and the company. I loved that Elyse knew exactly what we were envisioning and helped us to achieve our dream flowers for our venue/church. Another nice perk of working with Metropolitan is that you get to see your sample arrangements and bouquets before you book! Elyse was so polite, professional and always available via email when we needed her. She was not pushy and never tried to up-sell us. We can't thank them enough for helping make our wedding day so amazing!

Vanessa...Vanessa...Vanessa!!! Not only did Vanessa "get" me right away, she went above and beyond to deliver beyond my wildest dreams. Everything was PERFECTION. My centerpieces were every last thing and her support was phenomenal. She took every call and responded to every email, mostly talking me off the ledge, provided perfect guidance and ensured me I was making all the best decisions to create the look and feel of my dreams. The fact that there is a mock up of your items ahead of the event is amazing and really sets into motion the excitement of your special day. We also ended up using her for centerpieces for the Bridal Shower because we were so pleased with the experience. Brides-To-Be, do yourself a favor and give Vanessa a call today!!

From the moment I began wedding planning I knew that I wanted to work with Metropolitan Plant & Flower Exchange! I had the great pleasure of working with Vanessa V. Vanessa is a very talented floral designer. She absolutely NAILED the vision that I have for my vintage/modern wedding. She was absolutely wonderful! Anytime I needed to update my order she responded promptly. I am still completely in love with the floral arrangements. My bouquet was GORGEOUS. It was so pretty that I preserved it in a shadow box. Thank You Metropolitan Plant & Flower Exchange. I'll be back in a few weeks to get my wreath from the holidays!!!

I was having difficulty selecting a florist since I wasn't like the designs and I felt there wasn't any personality to the flowers UNTIL I made an appointment with Elyse at Metropolitan. Elyse captured everything that I was picturing in my mind and made it a million times better. I received compliments all evening on our bouquets, centerpieces, and the cake flowers. I couldn't be happier with the way everything turned out for our wedding. I highly recommend Metropolitan. I promise you won't be disappointed!

Wow!! I had gone through many florists before booking Metropolitan and I just knew they would be amazing! We dealt with Elyse who knew exactly what I was looking for! I had sent pictures to other florists and they would send me something that looked completely different - when I showed Elyse what we wanted for our centerpieces she hit it right on point and made them so beautiful! Everyone did not stop raving about them - the flowers were blooming and just made our reception look beautiful! My bouquet was a cascade and it was absolutely breathtaking and the my bridesmaids' bouquets were gorgeous too! The delivery on that day was earlier and everything was on time! I would definitely be using Metro again in the future!

Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange did an AMAZING JOB for our wedding! We absolutely LOVE Vanessa! We had 24 centerpieces- 12 high and 12 low, cake decorations, 8 bouquets and 1 bridal bouquet. From our first meeting I knew Vanessa and I were on the same page. She knew exactly what we wanted. When it was time to come in for our trial - I was blown away, I teared up a little. It was everything I envisioned and more. They were priced very competitively and I knew we made the right choice. I also e-mailed Vanessa non-stop with questions over an 8 month window and she answered me quickly and professionally. I can't tell people enough how amazing the service was with them. The day of the wedding every single flower was perfect. From the my bouquet, to the girls bouquets, to the centerpieces........GORGEOUS! Thank you Metropolitan and Vanessa for making our day beautiful!!!

We went to Metropolitan for our Wedding flowers, and could not have been happier. Vanessa worked with us from start to finish and she was wonderful with capturing the vision we had in mind for the big day. From my bouquet, floor baskets, centerpieces, candles and rentals, everything was stunning! The quality and professionalism displayed by Vanessa in my eyes can't be beat. We would absolutely recommend Metropolitan, and use them again for future events. Thank you Vanessa!

Elyse Kotch and her team at Metropolitan Plant & Flower Exchange (Fort Lee) did an AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL job for our wedding day. We had a small wedding, but still wanted a good amount of flowers. We needed something elegant but not overboard given the intimate setting, and Elyse did a perfect job. Elyse never made us feel like we weren't worth it or important just because we were having a small wedding. Furthermore, what I really appreciated was that Elyse arranged for us to see sample table settings and bouquets months before our wedding, which really gave us a better idea of how everything would look. It was funny because Elyse put together exactly what I asked, and I realized at that time that the arrangements weren't exactly right -- which was no fault of Elyse, but mine. I was so happy that I got to figure this out during the sample day and not on the wedding day! I will tell you that most florists do not do samples, from what I found, so I really appreciated that Elyse did this for us. We reworked what we had in mind for the wedding, and it all came together flawlessly. Plus, Elyse gave her expert advice every step of the way, which made me feel like we were in good hands. On the wedding day, all of the flower arrangements arrived early, and everything looked just perfect. Thank you so much Elyse and to everyone at Metropolitan! I'll be wishing you the best!!

When reviewing florists for the wedding, I thought it would be challenging because I knew how pricy real flowers can be... and well, I didn't care TOO much about flowers that would die in a couple of days. Nonetheless, my husband and I wanted flowers that would compliment our venue and look sophisticated.

We scheduled an appointment with Metropolitan and met with Elyse. (Fort Lee is the only location that does events like weddings!) Elyse was very professional and a delight to work with! With a little direction, she was able to pin down the exact look we were going for. She also gave us candid feedback and was very accommodating with our budget. After our first meeting, we scheduled another appointment to see some samples (for FREE!). The samples were amazing and we fine-tuned our arrangements. Elyse was very patient with us and seeing the samples in person confirmed our decision to move forward with Metropolitan.

On the day of the wedding, the flowers arrived on time and they came exactly as planned. Beautiful work Metropolitan! You helped contribute to our wonderful day and we THANK YOU! Can't wait to use you again in the future!

My flowers were absolutely gorgeous! Exactly how I envisioned them! My husband and I were married November 28, 2014. I worked with Vanessa and she was terrific! She went above and beyond making samples twice until they were close to what I wanted but I have to say she got them 100% correct the day of my wedding. Exactly what I wanted! During the planning process my husband said he didn't want to spend a lot of money on flowers because he & I could not remember what the flowers looked like at any of our friend's weddings! However, I can assure you everyone remembered my flowers and are still talking about them. In fact all the table arrangements were taken home by guests because they were so gorgeous no one wanted them to go to waste! The nice part was that my flowers were reasonably priced. We didn't get the run around! If anything they gave us more for our money then what I had originally expected! Vanessa was so amazing & sweet to work with she made signing the contract easy. (also they don't require a huge deposit) I have been told by many of my guests the flowers were the nicest they have ever seen before! I truly believe they were the most stunning flowers I have ever seen! They showed up on time to 3 locations & the order was perfect! A+ Vanessa is awesome! Do not look elsewhere! You won't be disappointed!

Elyse was amazing! She really took the time to listen to what I wanted for my wedding. I really wanted it to stay close to my low budget for flowers. I didn't know anything about flowers or they're names, but I showed some pictures from pinterest and she helped me pick out the most amazing flowers. She even showed me a centerpiece she was doing for another wedding and I LOVED IT! PLUS it was $10 cheaper a table! You really will not be disappointed going with them. They really made one less thing stressful while planning a wedding!

Look no further-Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange is the florist you must use for your wedding! If it wasn't for Vanessa in the wedding department at Metro, all the aspects of my wedding wouldn't have come together in the beautiful way that they did. Flowers were the one thing that I just couldn't picture in my mind, but with Vanessa-the flowers of my dreams became a reality! Vanessa took the time to sit down with me a number of times (and exchange a million emails) to listen to the vision I had for my wedding-the colors, the fabrics, the mood-and she created the most beautiful floral accents for my big day! She truly listens to all of your ideas-and can magically make them all reflected in your bouquet! Not only do you get to know every single flower that is going into your arrangements, but you even get to see and hold real lifesize samples of your bouquets and center piece! This was not only exciting, but truly put a bride at ease-knowing that what exactly I was going to get the day of my wedding! Thanks to Vanessa and the talented team at Metro, our wedding was not just amazing, but gorgeous!!!

We got our flowers for the bridal party and reception here. Elyse Kotch was amazing to work with. I must have drove her crazy with all the changes I made to my order up until the week before the wedding. But she was so professional, pleasant, and helpful each step of the way. I met with her with scattered ideas. Her expertise helped my scattered ideas become a GORGEOUS reality. She has been in this business for almost 30 years and it shows. My bouquet was absolutely stunning! My bridesmaids single calla lily feather accents were elegant as were the flowers for the flower girls. The corsages and boutonnieres for the rest of the bridal party were just as gorgeous. And the centerpieces were PERFECT for the wedding venue!!! Everyone of my guests loved them so much, they fought over who would take them home! Their work is really a work of art. The quality of the flowers are top notch!!!! And best of all she was able to provide me exactly what I wanted with the budget I wanted.
I would definitely recommend them to my friends and family for an event or just to send flowers to brighten up someone's day!!! Definitely returning there for my flowers and gifts!!!

Vanessa was absolutely fabulous to work with. I had met with 3 other florists before finally going to Metropolitan Plant Exchange and they were either wildly out of my price range or gave me scary, outdated, non-inventive ideas. That all changed when I finally made an appointment with Metropolitan Plant Exchange! I knew before even seeing the flower mock-up that Vanessa completely understood my vision and could deliver...and for the right price! Vanessa was always available to discuss ideas and make necessary changes to keep me happy. And the final product was STUNNING. Metropolitan knows how to keep up with current trends and knows how to make their clients happy! This was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! Thank you Vanessa! And hope you had a fabulous wedding yourself!!

I used Metropolitan House of Flowers for my wedding on October 11, 2014. I worked with Vanessa and all I can say is I am beyond happy with all of my flowers. All of the flowers were exactly what we had chosen and our centerpieces at our reception were just like the sample that Vanessa has put together for us. she was extremely helpful with choosing flowers and making recommendations. I live in Staten Island and my reception wAs in Nj.Delivery to all locations was on time and all of our flowers arrived neat and organized with labels for people. I would definitely use them again for any event.

I had the pleasure of working with Elyse, and she was great! She listened to our suggestions and what we wanted, and was able to execute everything beautifully. She was not pushy, and helped us think of cost effective ways to save $ as well. Everyone complimented me on my bouquet, the bridesmaids bouquets and our centerpieces. She made everything stress free!

I worked with Vanessa for my wedding and she was fabulous! I met with Vanessa only a few months before my wedding and she was truly wonderful. She was very attentive and she knew exactly what I envisioned for my wedding. Once I saw the design that Vanessa had created for my sample flowers I knew that I wanted to book Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange for my wedding. The design was so impressive and amazing! What was even more amazing was that Vanessa worked within our budget. My flowers were so beautiful on my wedding day and my bridal party loved their bouquets! Our centerpieces were also beautiful and classic, and our guests were so happy to take them home. I would definitely recommend Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange to any bride that wants beautiful flowers at an affordable price.

I worked with Vanessa, and she was absolutely amazing! My flowers were so so beautiful and the price was very affordable for what I ordered (a mix of fall wildflowers including callas, gerber daisies, sunflowers etc). My centerpieces were literally breathtaking, and my guests couldn't stop talking about them all night! Great experience!

I had specific thoughts in mind and by explaining to her my vision, Elyse was able to bring it to reality for me. Thanks again for making my special day absolutely beautiful!

I had the absolute best experience working with Metro for my wedding in August. This was the one aspect that I was never stressing out about and that is all thanks to Vanessa. She is awesome to work with, friendly, accommodating, and upfront with all costs. I made a few changes along the way with no problems and she always got back to me quickly. I was having my wedding in South Jersey and they had no problem delivering everything down there. The day of my wedding, all of my bouquets and reception arrangements arrived on time and were set up just how I wanted. Everything looked more beautiful than I had envisioned. I highly recommend this vendor for all of your flower needs. I will definitely be using them in the future.

I worked with Elyse from the Fort Lee Metropolitan Plant Exchange. I was actually recommended to this florist from my friends sister-in-law.

I can't thank Elyse enough for going out of her way to find exactly what I wanted (tall crystal votive stands) since they did not have it available at the store. She offered to look for what I wanted and got back to me within a week to let me know she was able to find them! I also gave Elyse my budget and she really worked with me. :)

The floral arrangements were just perfect and so beautiful and my bouquet was absolutely stunning! I received so many compliments ON THE COLOR OF THE FLOWERS.

Everything looked fabulous. I am so beyond pleased with everything. Elyse took my vision and made it reality 1000%!

Thank you again.

We used Metro Plant & Flower Exchange for our wedding and were absolutely pleased with the service they provided! Vanessa was our florist and she was great to work with. She understood my ideas for the flowers and had ideas of her own that fit perfectly with my vision. Metro Plant & Flower Exchange provided our ceremony, reception and personal flowers. The personal flowers were delivered to our hotel rooms right on time. The ceremony and cocktail hour space and ballroom were set up perfectly. They were very accommodating as we had last minute additions to the contract. Prices were very competitive and they were willing to work with our tight budget. We are very pleased with the flowers and would recommend Metro Plant & Flower Exchange!

Excellent! Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange was one of the first vendors we booked, and we were very pleased with every aspect of the process. We had our first consultation with Vanessa at the Fort Lee location, which is a store with a truly enormous warehouse of flowers on the second story. Vanessa knows exactly what she's doing and made the process so easy (especially for me, who knows next to nothing about flowers). I showed her a picture of a bouquet I liked, and she gave us a bunch of suggestions immediately. She pretty much crafted our entire wedding in 10 minutes. Vanessa was also cost-savvy and knew a lot about substitutions that could bring what we wanted within our budget - that was a refreshing attitude to see from a vendor.
When the wedding day came, all of the bouquets and centerpieces arrived right on time. We were so happy with the presentation - it was absolutely beautiful. Thanks to Vanessa and everyone at MPFE for a job well done!

She has a great eye for detail and was able to take my vision and make it into reality. When I walked into the ballroom, I was blown away by how the centerpieces looked! Vanessa created 3 different centerpieces for us and each was stunning!

She also created a beautiful chuppah for us as well as a beautiful bouquets for myself and my bridesmaids. I received so many compliments! I cannot thank Vanessa enough for her professionalism, hard work, and overall great demeanor! She helped create my fairytale wedding and I would recommend her to anyone!

We worked with Elyse at Metropolitan for my son's wedding. She was creative and knew exactly what my son and daughter in law wanted. She made samples of the bouquets and centerpieces, which gave an opportunity to make some changes as needed. The ceremony was planned for outdoors, but the weather was not cooperating. Elyse made sure that it was perfect for inside, and used all of the flowers as we requested in case of inclement weather. You would never had known that the flowers were intended for an outdoor ceremy. It was absolutely beautiful. Everything was perfect the day of the wedding. They did forget to put some crystals on the bridal bouquet, but they did it as soon as it was brought to their attention. We had so many compliments on how beautiful the flowers were. The prices were way less than other florists, and the quality of flowers were much better than any I have ever seen. I would highly recommend Metropolitan Plant Exchange

I was absolutely thrilled with our wedding flowers! After meeting with a smaller florist, I am so happy I went with (larger) Metropolitan. I worked with Elyse, who immediately knew what I was looking for in terms of my 'vision' for the look and feel. Initially, we were way outside of our budget but she was able to make adjustments to come within our range and I couldn't have been happier with how everything came out. The centerpieces and bouquets were quite simply, stunning. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and recommend them to anyone.

Our flowers were absolutely perfect. We worked with Elyse to come up with the design; she had many unexpected and ultimately awesome ideas to incorporate greens and whites into a mid-fall wedding, and she listened intently to our thoughts and feedback.

Centerpieces were great too: they alternated on each table and really set the scene.

Delivery was on-time and courteous. We reused our ceremony flowers for the reception, and the transition was seamless.

I used Metropolitan for my wedding and since then have brought countless brides over to the company because of how unbelievable they were.
Specifically, I worked with Vanessa Vastano, and I can not say enough about her! She helped put my vision to life and made the entire process so much fun. She was incredibly accommodating with my schedule and always had a huge smile on her face when I got to the door. The flowers arrived on the day of my wedding, EXACTLY as we discussed, and it looked beautiful.
Go with this company and if you can, work with Vanessa!! You wont be disappointed!

I used Metropolitan as did my sister and one of my good friends. I was extremely happy with their work. I worked with Elyse. She was extremely patient, and when we met to see samples she worked with me to tweak the already gorgeous arrangements so they fit exactly what I wanted. The day of, my bouquets and centerpieces arrived on time and were exactly what I expected. The bouquets for me and my bridesmaids were full and beautiful. Prices were competitive and quality definitely far exceeded what I have seen at other florists.

I changed my mind a couple times and she was very patient. She responded to my emails quickly and was helpful the entire time. I was blown away when I walked into my reception room and saw the centerpieces truly come to life. It helped create the romantic and classy mood I was envisioning. Thank you soo muchhh!

I used Metro for my wedding on October 6th and I could not have been happier. The flowers were better than I could have ever imagined!! I worked with Vanessa in the Fort Lee location and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. I went in last minute with a tight budget and she pulled everything together perfectly. I even made changes right before the wedding and all the changes were made right away. All of the deliveries on the day of were made promptly and setup just as planned with no confusion. I recommend using Metro to anyone that is getting married or planning an event. You will not be disappointed!!

Elyse was amazing to work with! She was able to bring the vision in my head to life and the final center pieces and bouquets turns out even prettier than I could have imagined. The entire process was simple and easy!! Thank you so much!

Elyse and team did an amazing job with the flowers for my wedding. It was easy to get an initial appointment and right from the start I could tell they knew their stuff. I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to different flower types, but they asked me a lot of questions about color and style and when I went back to view the sample arrangements they were exactly what I had been picturing. The actual centerpieces and bouquets for the wedding were so fresh and well made and made a huge impression on all of our guests. My bridesmaids told me they were the nicest and most well-made they had ever seen. My family and friends even told me that the flowers they took home from the wedding lasted 2 weeks!

I spoke with Vanessa V. and from the very beginning, she was always super friendly and available to talk to me. She was professional and did not want to just take my money. She made sure that i was happy with what she suggested and stayed within my budget. She quickly responded to my emails and calls. All the flowers and arrangements arrived on time to the places they were supposed to go to and all looked just like I imagined. I definitely recommend Metropolitan Flower Exchange for their professionalism and friendliness!

Vanessa did an amazing job with my flowers for
my wedding on September 28, 2013.
They were absolutely gorgeous!

Vanessa is so professional that she did not discourage me from changing my choices a month before the wedding.

Our overall experience working with Metropolitan Plant & Flower Exchange was pheominal from the start. Elyse located at the Fort Lee, New Jersey location was extremely professional, polite, knowledgeable and creative.
Elyse added a EXTRA special touch to our Wedding planning and Wedding Day with her exceptional skills and ideas. Everything was organized so absolutely beautiful and decorated with such class; truly lovely. Our guest were overwhelmed by the beauty and colorful classy floral arrangements and decor; inside and out. Exceptional and brillianance is what Elyse brought forth with such ease!!! We'd like to you to pass on our comments to Elyse for she deserves to know how much we did and do appreciate her, her talent, her diligents and her work style. She is certainly a preminum individual and member of your team. You should be as proud of her as we are. Thank you for a FANTASTIC experience. Feel free to use our floral arrangement ideas in your advertisement. We most definitely will recommend you as a Vendor one can count on.

We were so happy to find Vanessa at Metro. Her work was stunning. She created the most beautiful flowers for us all. From the ceremony, bouquets, center pieces, etc she was on point! The hours they setup and the detail they took was amazing. She really made our vision a reality. She never said no. She always found a way to get things done for us. If you are looking for a florist who will take care of you with the most beautiful flowers Vanessa at Metropolitan is for you!

Metropolitan Plant and Flower exchange and Elyse Kotch were fantastic. Elyse was patient and sincerely helpful putting together different flower combinations so that we could feel comfortable with our choices.She was very willing to meet with us a number of times until we got all the details right.We were thrilled with her suggestions and she made us feel so happy to be planning the floral decorations with her.Elyse turned our venue Wave Hill in Riverdale New York into a fairy tale setting. Her centerpieces were so large and magnificent and the chuppa was startlingly gorgeous. In addition, her eye for details transformed every inch of the venue from the card table to the reception room windows into a uniquely beautiful space. We are extremely grateful for all her hard work.

From the very beginning, Metropolitan Flower Exchange was truly amazing. I worked with Vanessa and she was extremely responsive, professional and turned my dreams into a reality. We had a viewing early on of sample centerpieces and bouquets and they were beautiful. In our venue, we were able to hang flowers and crystals from wiring above the dance floor. Vanessa did a tremendous job at creating a dramatic look and everyone was raving about the hanging flowers/crystals. The centerpieces came out magnificent too. If you're looking for top quality for your over the top wedding, go with Metropolitan!

I worked with Vanessa for the flowers for my wedding. She was absolutely AMAZING to work with and made the whole process easy and enjoyable =) I had brought her a picture of a bouquet that I found on Pinterest she made it happen. Not only was I able to see samples of my bouquet and the bridesmaids' bouquets, but Vanessa was so easy to contact and quick to respond. Not to mention you can't beat the value!

For our moms and grandmothers we asked to have more of a bracelet with flowers on it than a corsage, and again Vanessa made this idea into a reality.

I honestly cannot thank Metropolitan enough for the beautiful flowers at our wedding! They were truly beautiful, full, and had that "wow" factor. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I couldn't possibly be happier with the flowers that Metropolitan did for my wedding. The experience was amazing from start to finish. I came with a few ideas, explaining what my overall vision was, and they nailed exactly what I envisioned. They worked with our budget and made sure to help me get everything I wanted. They even went so far as to help my mom surprise me by taking her dress and cutting off some of the lace on it to wrap around my bouquet for me. They always got back to me quickly and were extremely flexible. They delivered my flowers everywhere on time. They ended up looking more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. I have received so many compliments on the centerpieces from my reception. My guests were actually fighting over who got to take them home at the end of the night.

Vanessa Vastano at Metropolitan Plant Exchange handled the flowers for our wedding and she was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the process. She provided helpful suggestions at the beginning stages and was pleasant, professional, organized, and quick to respond to all queries up until the day of the wedding. I would recommend Metropolitan Plant Exchange to anyone, and especially mention the outstanding services of Vanessa Vastano.

Thank you.

Vanessa is amazing. From the first day we met before I received my written proposal, I knew Vanessa would me our Floral Designer. She knew exactly what I wanted before I could finish explaining my vision. She made us samples which were exactly what I wanted for my wedding. On the actual day of the wedding I was totally in heaven when I saw all of the bouquets, centerpieces and arrangements. Absolutely gorgeous!
