    Beyond our wildest dreams

    Michaleen's brought our wedding vision to life (and more!!), and the result was absolutely beautiful! I knew nothing about flowers or what all I needed for a wedding. Michaleen guided us through the planning and ordering process, asking about all of the potential needs for a wedding ceremony and reception so we wouldn't forget anything! She arrived promptly on our wedding day with PERFECT bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, and extras. Our guests have been raving about how gorgeous her work is, and several have reached out to us asking about this amazing florist! Beyond grateful that we found Michaleen's for our day. Fully recommend!!!

    I'm so glad you were happy with everything. I can't wait to see pictures!
    All the best and congratulations!

    Great Vendor!

    I put my mom in charge of the flowers for my wedding and she chose the best possible place! Michaleen's did amazing work and made sure that we had exactly everything we needed. I am so happy with how everything turned out!

    Michaleen's Florist and Garden Center's reply:

    Thank you for the wonderful review. I love the pictures! You will need to send me more so I can post them on my wedding website.
    Wishing you both much happiness!!

    Brought My Vision to Life

    Michaleen was incredible to work with. She was so responsive to my requests and even allowed us to bring in some of our own hop vine for our arrangements. I brought her pictures of our vision and she absolutely nailed it! I cannot recommend enough!

    Michaleen's Florist and Garden Center's reply:

    Vanessa,
    I'm so glad you were happy. Could you please share your pictures with us. I would love to put them on our wedding website.
    Happy New Year,

    Beautiful flowers and great price!

    Michaleen worked within my budget and was very reasonable. She was responsive to my emails and questions. I shared my vision with her with no specific flowers in mind and she still totally got it! I asked if we could include artichokes and peppers and she went out and got them just for the bouquet and boutonniere. Highly recommend!

    Michaleen's Florist and Garden Center's reply:

    Katie,
    I'm so glad you liked everything. Would love to see more pictures once you get them. Would love to include you on our website.
    Congratulations again!

    Best florist in the Ithaca area!

    I cannot say enough about how thrilled we were with the flowers for our wedding! They were even more beautiful and creative than I’d enivisioned them! Michaleen and her staff were so easy to work with and accommodating. We met with her for all of 20 minutes, I explained what I wanted and she made magic. So many of our guests commented on the bouquets. I highly recommend Michaleen’s!

    Michaleen's Florist and Garden Center's reply:

    thank you for the wonderful review and for sharing your pictures. So glad that you liked everything.
    Much Happiness and all the best!

    Michaleen was amazing and so easy to work with! I simply showed her pictures and told her ideas and she made my vision come to life. She was so great with any last minute changes or add on's. She delivered quality arrangements that lasted through an entire, hot July day. Michaleen was also, by far, the most reasonable and affordable florist I found in the area without sacrificing any quality. We loved working with her and highly recommend!

    We used Michaeleen's for our wedding ceremony and reception flowers and we are so happy we did! Mickey takes so much pride in all of her work and clearly wants every bride to feel special. We had our first planning meeting 18 months ahead of the wedding given we only had a few availabilities to visit the area before the big day. Mickey took amazing notes and clearly understood everything we are looking for. We didn’t speak again until 4 months before the wedding where Mickey remembered every detail I was looking for from the coral in the bridesmaids bouquets, to the highs on the table decor and everything in between. Micky and my planner (Terra Rosa) ended up spending two days setting up the greenery/florals for the big day! Everything looked amazing, brighter, fresher and more perfect than I could have imagined. Every single flower was clearly chosen to make an impact and look fresher than that last. Thank you Mickey for all your beautiful work!! You absolutely transformed my wedding reception site! Thank you!!!!

    Working with Michaleen as our wedding florist was such a pleasure and a joy. I was not able to meet her in person until a few days before the wedding but she was always available, quick to respond, helpful, professional, personable and thoughtful through our months of planning by email and phone. She listened closely to all of my requests, elevated my ideas to the next level and produced the most stunning floral arrangements. Everything was absolutely perfect on the wedding day - from the bouquets to the chuppah decoration to the types of vases I asked for. She and her team worked so hard to bring together all of the varieties and colors of flowers I requested. The flowers made me smile ear to ear throughout the whole wedding day and now when I look at pictures. I appreciate greatly that on the day of the wedding her set-up timing was perfect and that I didn’t have to worry at all about anything; she was prepared and capable and needed no instructions/direction. I also am so grateful that she was able to work within my budget and still created the flower arrangements of my dreams! Thank you so much, Michaleen!

    I wish I could give a million starts to Michaleen and her team! We were blown away by our absolutely gorgeous flowers. Michaleen is a true expert and artist and I'm so glad we chose her. From my initial consultation right up until the morning of the wedding, Michaleen was super responsive, helpful, and honest about the cost of various choices I was considering. Everything came out just beautifully. Thank you, thank you!!

    Michaleen went above and beyond to create the flowers of my dreams for my wedding and I could not be more happy with the results. Michaleen was actually the florist at my parents' wedding nearly 27 years ago and she so impressed them that they continued ordering flowers from her anytime they needed to send them to anyone in the area for years - so Michaleen was the natural choice for my wedding as well! She did an absolutely spectacular job. As my plan for the decor changed several times along the way she was able to make changes and handle everything so professionally and provide such unique and original ideas throughout the process. I also had some very specific ideas about a flower crown, which she was able to totally accommodate and I could not have been happier with how this important piece turned out (see picture below). Again, I could not be happier with my flowers and with the overall experience of working with her; she is the absolute best in the Finger Lakes region and will not disappoint!

    I planned my wedding from out of state so I never got to have meetings with Michaleen. She was so understanding and personable through all of the phone calls and emails. She exceeded my expectations and made my visions come to life. Our flowers were ABSOLUTLEY STUNNING! Flowers can be very expensive but they really made our venue come to life and provdided the elegance we desired. These flowers were so beautiful and worth every penny.

    Michaleen's Florist and Garden Center's reply:

    Hi Amanda,
    I'm so glad you were happy with your wedding flowers. I would love to use some of these photos on our wedding website. Do you think you could send me some with your photographer name?
    Congratulations!

    Michaleen did an incredible job on the bouquets, boutonnieres, and flowers for the mothers of the bride and groom for our wedding. She had great ideas when we met and the finished product was gorgeous. Highly recommend!

    I didn't do much with flowers for my wedding, but I did have Michaleen create two corsages and a bouquet for my ceremony. I showed her reference images of my dream designs and the creations she produced exceeded all my expectations. She understood our aesthetic and took it a step further with her flawless execution. I was blown away!

    Gorgeous, gorgeous flowers! We were planning from far away so we literally did everything over the phone and never even saw the flowers until my wedding day. I was so happy with my beautiful fall bouquet. The flowers were vibrant and put together beautifully. All the bouquets, corsages, and boutonnieres were beautiful! They knew our chapel and chapel coordinator well so they knew when to show up and even how to decorate the church. The day of went smoothly, everything was in place well before the ceremony, and all without ever getting to meet them. Thank you for the beautiful work!

    Anna executed exactly what I had in mind when we first met and I was so impressed! She even managed to find all of the weird greens and textures I'd wanted, even though she said she'd never worked with some of them before.

    After corresponding with a florist recommended by our caterer who wasn't able to promise us the kinds of flowers we wanted, we found Michaleen's online and initially had been worried that we wouldn't be able to afford something so beautiful. However, they were really accommodating of our needs and budgetary limitations and provided us with stunning flowers that were exactly what we wanted. We were able to save some money by picking up the flowers ourselves, plus they provided some arrangements a day early so we could use them for our rehearsal dinner. We're so happy that we went with them! We worked with Anna, who was super!

    I loved working with Michaleen. From the very beginning she listened to all of my wishes for wedding flowers and helped me make it work with my budget. We had some last minute additions and requests and she more than happy to accommodate. The day-of, I did not have to worry about anything related to flowers. I was able to totally enjoy being the bride and my husband, was able to enjoy being the groom, knowing somebody was going to be at the church to help him with his boutineer! Mickey was great working with our reception site, as I did not have to be the "middle man". I would highly recommend Michaleen's to any bride and groom!

    Our flowers turned out great. All of our guest commented on the center piece and how beautiful it was. I work our of town, so most of our conversation was through email and phone calls. I gave the color and few type of flowers I'd like, Michaleen worked around my budget and delivered.

    Mickey was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond to ensure everything looked gorgeous for our rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception! She thought of everything and brought some really unique touches to the decor. From the ribbons on our napkins to the flowers on our cake, every detail was attended to. I was not sure what I wanted for flowers but gave her a couple different types that I liked and a loose color scheme and she worked her magic. All of the colors blended beautifully together and the arrangements were an exotic mix of different flowers, berries and greenery. Everything was so fresh and healthy that several guests and family members brought pieces home and some are still thriving, three weeks after the event! All of our guests loved the arrangements and Mickey has a unique and wide array of decor touches that really step up the appearance of the venue. Our venue actually kept most of her flowers on display throughout the resort for several days after our wedding.
    She was very flexible and accommodated all of our requests, which was huge, since we planned our wedding from CA. She is a joy to work with and an absolutely talented professional.

    I used Michaleen's for my wedding to create my bridal bouquet, corsages, boutonnieres, center pieces and decorations for the ceremony. As an out of town bride I was challenged to rely on mostly reviews, phone and email communication but Michaleen was such a pleasure to work with and I am so glad I found her. I sent her some pictures of what I envisioned and she made it a reality. She also worked with me to keep in our budget. Flowers can obviously get expensive but Michaleen's helps ensure you will have something beautiful for the price you can afford. She was so organized and accommodating every step of the way. She has been in the business for some time and her knowledge and customer service prove it. I could not have been happier with the flowers and I was absolutely in love with my bouquet. I would highly recommend Michaleen’s for their quality, value and service.

    We were absolutely thrilled with Michaleen’s bouquets and floral arrangements for my son and his bride’s Cornell wedding. As a Cornell landscape architect, our bride’s knowledge of plants and flowers is extraordinary, but we relied on Mickey’s taste and expertise in the choice of specific flowers and the design of the arrangements. Her work exceeded our wildest dreams, demonstrating magnificent color, texture and form. Michaleen’s enhanced our wedding with the highest level of artistry and professional. Mickey gets my unreserved endorsement.

    Michaleen was an absolute dream to work with! Not only is she a consummate professional, but she is the friendliest, most approachable person. I knew after speaking with her on the phone (from almost 3,000 miles away!) that she would be a part of our wedding. Planning long distance (in our case, from Los Angeles to Ithaca, NY) can be very challenging, especially when attempting to translate the idea in your head (or on your Pinterest board) into reality. If you work with Michaleen, you'll have nothing to worry about, because she gets it - and she's REALLY good at what she does. She's very flexible, always willing to tweak the order and work with you to stay on budget, and she will share your vision 100% (while also giving very honest and candid feedback). On the big day, we couldn't possibly have been more pleased. The flowers were fresh, absolutely gorgeous, and EXACTLY what we wanted. It was a dream come to life. Michaleen doesn't skimp - she likes very full arrangements (the bouquets were way bigger than I expected!) and your money will go a long way - we were very pleasantly surprised at what we received. I wouldn't say she's the cheapest, but her prices were comparable when I shopped around, and the value here is outstanding. Michaleen's is worth every penny.

    I was very pleased with the quality of my flowers! I changed my mind about arrangements before the wedding, and Michaleen was very flexible. Communication was also very timely.

    Lauren at Michaleen's worked with me to plan the flowers for my wedding. I really wanted all ranunculus, which I was told by others wasn't possible, but Lauren made it happen. Everything looked beautiful and Lauren gave me great advice and was very flexible.

    Michaleen's did the flowers for my wedding at the John Joseph Inn and did and AMAZING job. They were very hands on during the planning process and very reasonable. I gave them certain colors to work with and certain flowers I wanted (peonies), and let them work their magic. When the flowers arrived on my wedding day I was blown away! The centerpieces were gorgeous, as were all the bouquets.

    Michaleen's provided us incredible flowers meeting all of our requests within our budget (which was $1,400). For this, we got 1 big bouquet, 6 smaller bouquets (which were still quite full), 8 small hydrangea centerpieces, and about 10 boutonnieres/corsages that went will with our vintage/countryside theme. They even included decorative kale, which I really wanted but is often not available in August!

    Note: My new sister-in-law did all of the work with this florist, so although I cannot personally attest to working with Michaleen's, she reported an excellent experience and I saw the beautiful outcomes at our wedding!

    The woman can do anything. I am not so well versed in flower speak, and never actually met Ms. Michaleen in person, but from over the phone, and a couple of photos from magazines, she got my vague descriptions of "lush and romantic" and turned it into exactly what we wanted. She's slightly higher priced than some of the other florists, but was also the most professional of the ones I spoke to. That said, Michaleen also ended up being pretty flexible in the price - I think she was much more mindful of our budget than I initially expected and at the end of the day, her total bill ended up being significantly lower than the dollar amount she initially quoted us.

    Being a gardening enthusiast, it’s no surprise that choosing the flowers and florist for my wedding would require careful consideration. Michaleen’s was definitely the right choice! First of all, Michaleen is wonderful to work with. She has a tremendous wealth of knowledge and experience and was able to answer every question I asked and make great suggestions. I had specific flowers that I wanted to use and she was always accommodating, making sure that they were complemented by the other flowers in the arrangements. Through our conversations, she was able to get a sense of my vision for the wedding and executed that vision with truly striking results.
    While I grew up in the area, I had to plan the wedding from some distance and Michaleen was always quick to respond whenever I had a question or idea. She made the whole process so easy for me! Additionally, she has a great relationship with both the patisserie that worked on our cake and the venue where our ceremony and reception were held, making coordination a breeze. I simply can’t say enough nice things about Michaleen’s and would strongly advise anyone having a wedding in the area to meet with her and see for yourself!

    We loved working with Michaleen's - the process was easy and flexible, and we received more than we expected. Our flowers were one of our favorite parts of our wedding day - they were absolutely perfect. We'd gladly offer a testimonial or recommendation for Michaleen's any day. They were amazing.

    Michaleen and her staff were wonderful to us throughout the entire planning process, and the flowers on our wedding day were absolutely gorgeous. Danielle, the wedding planner, was delightful to work with, and helped us figure out exactly what we wanted for the big day. The result was flowers that were perfect for our wedding, and more beautiful that we could have imagined. Michaleen is extremely talented and professional, and very friendly as well. The whole experience could not have been better. Thank you so much!

    5 stars is not enough for Michaleen's!
    I spoke with 3 different people including Michaleen throughout planning the wedding - Michaleen and Danielle were just amazing to work with! They were able to share my vision and work within my budget. They had the most beautiful local flowers I have ever seen.
    Everyone who has seen my wedding photos has thought the flowers were stunning!

    The website was great for finding inspiration.
    They really knew what they were doing. Everything was delivered on time. Nothing was wilted despite August weather.
    I can't say enough good things about them!

    Although, I'm an out of state bride I had the opportunity to visit the shop; I recommend this!! It was a wonderland of flowers and plants!

    When it came to deciding where to get our flowers done, we decided on Michaleen's, and it was the best decision ever. Danielle Gerritsen did our arrangements for us. The day of the wedding I decided to pick up the flowers and they were more than I could have asked for. All of the arrangements were absolutely beautiful. My bridal boquet was stunning. The colors were perfect and the flowers were amazing. With all of the stresses of the wedding I miscounted how many corsages we needed for the moms and grandmothers. When I got there to pick up the flowers Micky quickly made up 2 more corsages for me on the spot. The service and the arrangements were beautiful and we were so happy to have had Michaleen's do our flowers for our wedding day.

    Michaleen's provided me with even more beautiful flowers than I could have hoped for for my special day! I worked with Lauren who knew exactly what kind of look I was going for and certainly delivered! I am not a big flower person when it comes to knowing what's in season and all that good stuff, but Lauren was patient and very flexible.

    Our wedding flowers from Michaeleen's were absolutely stunning. For my bridal bouquet, I sent her a picture of a bouquet I had found and liked online, and she recreated it PERFECTLY. The bouquets/corsages were lovely, but our centerpieces were absolutely show-stoppers. I admittedly don't know much about flowers so gave pretty vague descriptions of what I wanted, yet somehow the room looked exactly like what I imagined. Stacey was such a pleasure to work with: super responsive over email and accommodating of all our ideas. The best part about working with Stacey was that she was honest: when I asked for something that she thought wouldn't work, she was truthful about why it wouldn't be the best method AND prepared an alternative idea for us. Flowers are shockingly expensive, but Stacey gave us some suggests as to how to work with our budget during our consultation meeting, which I so appreciated; she never tried to up-sell us. She even ordered special containers for our centerpieces to match what we were looking for. My bouquet stayed beautiful for a solid week in a vase after our wedding!

    Our bouquets, centerpieces, boutineers and ceremony alter decor were picturesque! They nailed the look we were going for and were very accommodating with all questions and requests leading up to our wedding. Even though the they were a little pricey, it is worth it. The flower and foliage selection was fresh, full and prestine all through our wedding day. The arrangements still looked amazing even after a few days! Plus their store is wonderful. They have great displays and ample parking. We recommend stopping by and at the very least take a look around.

    From the very beginning of my wedding planning process, I knew exactly what I wanted in terms of flowers. I was going for a romantic wildflower look. Working with Anna at Michaleen's, this is exactly what I received on my wedding day. The bouquets that were put together were absolutely amazing, better than I could have imagined. Close to my wedding date I also decided I wanted an arrangement to go on the arch were were getting married under. No problem at all, I just provided the dimensions and the team at Michaleen's put together the perfect piece to coordinate with all the bouquets, and even set it up on the wedding day. I would highly recommend Michaleen's for you wedding or any other floral needs, no cookie cutter arrangements from them!

    Michaleen is an absolute delight to work with- she is so sweet, responsive and accommodating! I made several changes along the way and she was so flexible and helpful. The flowers turned out exactly how I had imagined. The only reason why I didn't give a 5 for quality of service is because the groomsmen's boutonnieres didn't last the whole day and were wilted by the reception. It was a very minor detail and the quality of the flowers at the church and the reception certainly made up for it. I would definitely recommend Michaleen's to other brides!

    We had a VERY tight budget and Michaleen's went above and beyond to work with us on it. Given that we were so tight on money, I was AMAZED on our wedding day when I saw our bouquets--they were absolutely breathtaking and exactly what I pictured! Michaleen's did such a beautiful job selecting the local/in season flowers in my colors and made our arrangements better than I could've ever imagined. We had one snafu on delivery, but they apologized and refunded us the delivery charge immediatley. In addition, everyone there was courteous and enthusiastic when I spoke to them. I would absolutely recommend Michaleen's to others!!

    Michaleen is a talented designer who created absolutely breathtaking flower arrangements and bouquets for my wedding. She was extremely thorough, flexible, and professional. She was patient with my change of vision. I was extremely pleased with her services. She promised fresh and perfectly white peonies for my mid June wedding despite the lateness in season, and she delivered. Amazing service!

    We enjoyed working with Michaleen's. Our bouquets were lovely and the church flowers were perfect. Both designers we spoke with had great idea and really put together a great plan from my few ideas. We were a bit worried because the original designer we were working with retired, but Mickey took over and did a wonderful job. They are a bit pricey but I suppose that is to be expected when you're the best wedding florist in a limited market.

    The flowers were beautiful, but it took us a while to reach a price and package we agreed on. They're pricey - but the flowers were everything I hoped for.
