    Wow - uniquely beautiful arrangements from true professionals

    Hired Island Flowers as our wedding florist and could not have been happier! Absolutely beautiful, unique arrangements that our wedding guests couldn't stop talking about. Nicole offers personal and professional service and was so helpful and flexible even when we had to postpone our original wedding date because of COVID. I would hire Island Flowers again in an instant. Definitely recommend!

    Breathtaking!!

    Island Flowers is by far the most incredible team of florist! From their photos it shows how unique and personal they make each of their flowers for their brides. My wedding day was no different and they took my breath away! I had planned for an original wedding that fell apart within 2 months of my wedding date, which also included losing my original florist. But I couldn't be anymore thankful that everything happens for a reason. I emailed back and forth with Nicole about my vision and flowers I wanted and from there she worked magic. I didn't even go to the shop for a consultation and she blew everything right out of the water. Nicole and her group are SO talented and I couldn't recommend them enough!

    Most Gorgeous Flowers Ever!

    Nikki was super talented and amazing to work with! She is super creative and takes a lot of pride in designing unique and beautiful florals.

    I told her that I was going for a witchy fall vibe with dark purples and reds, and she went above and beyond to make it personal and special. She happened to find two sets of metal scales at an antique store and knew that they would be perfect for us because we are both libras. You can rent a super cool moon arch from them and it went perfect with our theme.

    I thought I wanted carve pumpkins to line the aisle but then I realized how much work that would be for me right before the wedding. She suggested to use some baby's breath as an affordable alternative and it looked etherial and perfect.

    My bouquet turned out amazing and it looks perfect in our photos! i would recommend their expertise to anyone!

    Professional & Detail Oriented

    Nikki is a phonemail florist. I have had the pleasure of working with her professionally as well as a client for photoshoots. She is extremely passionate about her work and takes time with each bride to get to know them to create the perfect bouquet to replicate their personality. She is detail oriented and has a ridiculous amount of creativity. I wouldn't recommend anyone else to my brides!

    I love island flowers, they do the most beautiful job. I gave them a price limit and they worked with me on what I wanted and how I could do it at a reasonable price. It turned out wonderful!

    I couldn't be happier with Jennifer and Island flowers! I had contacted many florist in my area and after meeting Jennifer I knew she was the one I wanted to provide for my wedding. When I first met with her I really wasn't sure what I was looking for but by the time I left I was so excited to see everything put together! Her and her team did an amazing job, everything was there on time and exactly what I was looking for! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to provide for your wedding or even just to have arrangements made.

    All of the flowers were beautiful and put together very well. The flowers were delivered on time even though Island flowers had to drive quite a ways away and fight traffic. I couldn't have been happier with them!

    Island Flowers was TERRIFIC! We used them for our boutonneires only since we made our own bridal and bridesmaid bouquets. The bouts turned out beautifully and I wish we had the money in our budget to get the bouquets from them as well. Thay also ordered a stem of beautiful white flowers for me to put in my hair for my beach wedding. Every time I contacted the florist they were incredibly kind and helpful.

    Jennifer at Island Flowers was very nice. We didn't have an idea of what flowers we wanted for our wedding but she was very good at showing us and working on a budget. She put flowers together in her shop to show us how the bouquet would look as well us telling us what flowers are cheaper/more expensive. She was very good at being flexible and worked with any changes we had. The flowers turned out beautiful the day of the wedding.

    I was very pleased with the quantity of flowers that I received for the price that I paid. I had taken in pictures of the bouquets and boutonnieres that I wanted for the bridal party. The bridesmaids bouquets and the boutonnieres were almost exact replicas of the pictures. My wedding bouquet looked nothing like the picture, which was a little disappointing, but because I'm not a picky bride, I was okay with it. The ceremony flowers were gorgeous and photographed very well. Overall, I thought they did a very nice job, especially for the price!

    I really wanted to use small local vendors for all of our wedding needs. We found Island Flowers and was very pleased with the service. Everyone was accommodating and helped me come to a uniform idea with my flowers. I was very pleased with how all of our flowers turned out. I would recommend this vendor.

    In a word, AMAZING. The owner of this company is a little short with you on the phone, but I think it's because she's extremely busy during wedding season and is stressed. It took a while to be able to get an appointment with her busy schedule so we were able to meet with another consultant named Alisha who works there and she was wonderful!!! She took lots of time to help us pick out the perfect arrangements to suit both our budget and our tastes and she offered a surplus of expertise! She was very professional and very helpful. The flower arrangements all turned our so beautifully and we received lots of compliments. This shop is a little pricey but so worth it, as they offer an extensive list of flowers, arrangements, and services.

    The flowers were fresh, the arrangements were beautiful and the value enabled us to honor the special people in our lives with corsages and boutonnieres. Our pink peonies really pop in the photos!

    Our first meeting at Island Flowers was great, they have great knowledge of flowers and what works best in different situations. I had a few pictures of what I wanted my bouquet to look like and once they looked at the picture they knew the different flowers and said they could recreate it no problem. Once they called with the price we were happily surprised. But on my wedding day, I arrived before the ceremony to find the bridesmaids bouquets were cut short (we wanted long stemmed calla lilies) and they were already browning and starting to wilt, and the ribbons on the ends were not tied tightly and were starting to fray. My bouquet looked similar to the picture I showed them but it was also starting to brown and the little details we discussed like putting a few crystals and beads were no where to be found. I do have to say our center pieces turned out great. But I was unsatisfied with the other flower.

    The cost was reasonable and way under our budget. We worked with Jennifer who was very nice but not professional and organized. The contract was not useable and confusing. She had a difficult time reading what she put on the contract after changes were made. She did not keep track of these changes in an organized way. A month before the wedding she had crossed off centerpieces and this wasn't accurate. Each time we talked with her she had the same questions as before. The real issue came the day of the wedding when she had the days mixed up an thought our wedding was the following day. We had no flowers for pictures and she had to quickly rush to get our flowers done. I only wish I would have known what my flowers would have looked like if there had been more time put into them.
