    Beautiful Arrangements for a Beautiful Price

    We had such lovely floral bouquets, arrangements, and even some special pocket boutonnieres made by Renaissance Floral Design for our wedding. They totally delivered on our vision, just based off my pinterest board and two total meetings! Color me impressed! On top of the absolutely stunning work, we really thought they were very affordable, and for that reason especially, we would highly recommend them!

    Renaissance Floral Design's reply:

    Thank you Emma!!! And congrats to you both! We loved working with you and creating the look for your wedding!

    Absolutely stunning

    I am not a huge flower person, being allergic to most but my husband's family was in the business for years. My husband was so happy to see the arrangements brought tears to his aunts eyes, they were just perfect! David was so easy to work with, the colors were spot on! My husband had a pocket bouquet that was admired by all. I would recommend them over and over again!

    HIGHLY recommend!

    David and his team were AMAZING. They were prompt, responsive, patient, and just such a pleasure to work with. And of course, they made the most SPECTACULAR looking chuppah and florals throughout the room people have EVER seen. It was absolutely incredible and people are still raving about it a month later. I couldn't recommend using RFD enough!!!

    Highly Recommend!

    I hired Renaissance Floral Design for our wedding in the Adirondacks and I couldn’t have been happier with that decision. I know nothing about flowers and had a hard time verbalizing my vision for the day but David absolutely nailed it! Every detail was perfect and so many people commented on how beautiful the flowers and table designs were. David and his team knew our venue inside and out and they created a beautiful design that perfectly complemented our entire event. We highly recommend!

    David worked within our budget without sacrificing quality. The flowers were beautiful and the arrangements were unique, and delivered with care.

    Thank you David!

    Look No Further! RFDNY is the one

    I cannot speak more highly of David and the entire team at Renaissance Floral Design. From our very first interaction to our wedding day, David was so supportive, helpful and professional. The florals were absolutely breathtaking and made our day so very special and memorable. Thank you David and the entire RFDNY team for making our wedding so magical and beautiful!!

    Stunning florals 🤩 best in the area

    Working with David to create the perfect floral vision for my wedding was just so amazing. I knew florals were going to be the main point of our wedding decor so I expressed all my desires and ideas to David on multiple phone consults and sending inspo back and forth and he was just a gem to work with, I 100% recommend his floral design studio above all else, they have everything you could ever want and need and make your floral dreams come true…. Seriously. I still get compliments from our guests about how gorgeous my bouquet and flowers across the venue looked, and a lot of my bridesmaids still have their bouquets dried and on display in their homes…. Very flexible with budget as well….David brought my vision to life and I’m so grateful and thankful!!! Cheers!

    Stunning Work!

    I absolutely loved working with David & Troy. Despite being out-of-state, the planning process was very easy. They were willing to work within a budget – unlike some of the other vendors I had spoken with. The arrangements were absolutely gorgeous, and it was incredible to see the vision come to life so effortlessly!

    The BEST wedding florals I could have ever imagined!

    Wow.. I am still in awe at how beautiful the RFD team made my wedding venue look! Absolutely spectacular artistry and professionalism from each and every team member. They were so easy to work with, accommodating, and worked with us to get our dream wedding within our budget. Cannot recommend enough! Thank you Renaissance Floral Design!

    Gorgeous Displays

    We hired RFD for an intimate wedding in Lake George after they were recommended by our wedding venue. David and his team are incredibly talented, easy to work with, and highly professional. David worked with our budget and created exactly what we wanted based on a few conversations and some Pinterest board inspiration. We ended up transporting all of our arrangements to the venue ourselves and the venue helped with setup, which saved us on overall cost. It ended up working out really well and we were blown away by how beautifully everything came together. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!!

    Our vision came to life!

    DMS and team made our vision come to life, it was amazing. From the flowers, to the lighting, high top tables, dance floor and stage, everything was flawless. He was so accommodating even letting us make changes up until the last few days. RFD is great to work with and David's expertise is so helpful when making decisions, especially since we had never planned a wedding before. He truly is an event visionary extraordinaire! We can't wait to work with him again for future events!

    Renaissance Floral Design's reply:

    Thank you!!!!! I'm so happy you and your family were thrilled with everything! Wow you wedding was gorgeous! Thank you so much for letting us be a part of it. We would LOVE to work with you again for any occasion!
    Congrats again! David and the RFD Team

    All Talent and Beauty

    We contacted RFD 3 weeks before our 130 person wedding. David was extremely accommodating with both our timeline and our budget. He was funny, personable, and unbelievably talented. I wasn't expecting the amount of beauty and talent that was delivered for our wedding. I burst into tears when I saw my bridal bouquet--it was everything I had hoped for and more. The bouquet, centerpieces, and sweetheart piece were impeccably crafted and EXCEEDED my expectations. Thank you David and team for adding all of your beauty to our wedding!!

    Renaissance Floral Design's reply:

    Thank you Tina! OMG you guys were so nice to work with and I am so glad we could be a part of your day. Thank you so much for the review and congratulations again!

    Artistic geniuses! Highly Recommend!

    David and team at RFD are artistic geniuses! We worked with them for our intimate backyard wedding in Oct 2020. We knew we wanted the florals and chuppah to make the space feel magical. We showed David high-level ideas and inspiration photos and what he and his team did with the space was incredible. The bouquet – gorgeous! The driftwood chuppah – beyond our wildest dreams! The table arrangements – we were blown away by the beauty and elegance and how the space was transformed. Even the rose petals for the aisle and the small arrangements placed in our memory corner and on other tables transformed and tied together the space. We are so happy with RFD for helping us create lifetime memories!

    Renaissance Floral Design's reply:

    Thank you Michelle! Congratulations to you and Andrew. We were so happy to be a part of your intimate celebration. Thank you for the kind words. We loved meeting with you and preparing the decor for the big day!

    Beyond Beautiful

    RFD made our vision come to life with their beautiful floral arrangements. We went with a blue dress/suit theme paired with bold pink/orange/raspberry flowers and the contrast was gorgeous. The arrangements were better than I ever expected. They delivered our flowers nice and early to set up and deliver the personal bouquets. I 100% recommend David and his team. Thank you so much RFD!!

    Flowers of my dreams!

    Rennisance floral design took my vision and made it a reality. Jess and Tammy are visionarys!!! I had this dream and they brought it to life. I wanted a huge organic bouquet with lots of greens and pops of blue and burgandy and I hate Roses! they put so many unique flowers I had never seen before it was so different and exciting ! I gave them a challenege and they were up for it! They also made beautiful absolutley breath taking hoop bouquets for my bridesmaids! I swear I said I wanted a pinterest wedding and it was a pinterest wedding!!! The Swag they made for the arbor captured the essence of my bouquet and tied everything together. Everyone was so pleasant to work with and understood everything I was asking for and delivered it 10 fold!
    They also delivered the flowers the day of and set up the Swag so I had nothing to worry about! No stress and the flowers made the wedding decor! Would definitely recommend to anyone in the capital region! But they do travel too!!!! So I recomend to everyone!!!!

    Renaissance Floral Design's reply:

    Thank you Gabrielle! The blue flowers were a little tricky to figure out how to give you a truly unique wedding design but once we did a little digging we found some amazing things! Thank you so much for the review. If we could we would give you a 5star Bride review too!! Congrats!

    Truly Amazing!

    Working with David, the owner of RFD was a game changer. He exceeded every expectation possible and provided the most beautiful, picture perfect arrangements and rentals for our wedding.

    Right from the start, David made coordination and communication easy. He was extensive and thorough in his overview of what we might want or need, and made it easy to begin to visualize and articulate what we were going for. He was able to take our ideas and bring them to life in the most beautiful way. I truly believe that no matter what we had requested, David would have found a way to make it happen.

    For us, RFD was more than just flowers, but an entire event planning team. We were able to order/coordinate everything from arrangements, lighting/candles, table cloths, glassware and chairs through RFD and it made all the difference. David was always organized, creative and thoughtful, and went above and beyond to make sure anything and everything we pictured for our big day was available and ready to go.

    The ceremony flowers were unbelievable, with the most stunning arbor and arrangements that exceeded any idea of what we could have imagined. The reception was just as jaw-dropping, as the room had been transformed into a fairytale, thanks to David and his team. Every little detail was covered, and it truly felt like a dream come true.

    Without having used any other vendor, I can confidently say you will not get a better experience than with RFD. David made our wedding more beautiful than we could have ever imagined, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. If you are looking for a once in a lifetime experience, look no further than RFD.

    Exactly what I wanted and then some

    I wanted to design my own floral arrangements for my mom-traditional wedding reception, but quickly realized it would be more expensive than going with these pros. Troy was super quick to respond to my short notice request for service and assured me that he could design arrangements that would suit our needs. I brought in all of the vases and flower boxes that I had purchased and met with the designer for a consultation. She understood my aesthetic, gave me an accurate (and incredibly reasonable) quote, and I left the rest in their hands! RFD delivered the flowers exactly as promised, and the arrangements exceeded all of my expectations beyond words. Each was unique but cohesive and perfectly captured the look I was going for. The flowers turned my reception from a normal tent space into an elegant and whimsical dream. I ended up getting so many compliments that I sent them home as gifts so my guests could enjoy them for days to come. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend RFD for any event and any bridal style.

    Stunning flowers, amazing staff

    David and Troy at Renaissance Floral were incredible to work with. They were both attentive to our vague requests for flower designs (we are not very educated when it comes to flower variants or styles), were prompt with emailing and phone calls, were professional, and finally, they really brought our vision to life. They worked with us to go through a Pinterest board in which we had picked out specific flower styles that we liked, and were able to emulate them in their flower arrangements. The results were beautiful and had people commenting all day. My wife's hairstylist, upon affixing her flower crown, commented that it was the prettiest one she had ever seen. Furthermore, David was attentive to our budget requests, and ensured that we were well within our means. We are so happy that we went with them, and would do it again. Do not pass them up, you will not regret it!

    Beyond breathtaking flowers, incredible experience!!

    I am SO happy that my wedding planner recommended Renaissance Floral Design for our wedding. Choosing the right florist is a huge decision, but from my first call with David Michael Schmidt, the incredible owner, I knew that RFD would be the right choice. I wanted a "non-traditional" color scheme for my wedding - black tablecloths with bright colors - and David got my vision immediately. Not only did he understand it, but he completely elevated it and took it to the next level. His entire team was professional and accommodating, and a pleasure to work with. I'll never forget the moment I first saw the stunning flower display that we got married under - it was just perfect in every way. Our guests could not stop talking about how great the flowers were, and my husband and I agreed that it was one of our favorite parts of the entire day. I could not recommend RFD more!!!

    HIRE RENAISSANCE!!! David and his team are PRO's -- professional, modern, innovative, tasteful, the list goes on. David actually takes the time to go through your Pinterest board with you and make your vision come true. I had no knowledge about flowers but I didn't need to. David helps you create exactly what you want within your price range. He's also really funny and easy to talk to on the phone! We wouldn't have wanted anyone else to do our floral arrangements on our special day. Thank you, Renaissance!!!

    Beautiful flowers!! Thank you!!

    We originally had a different florist... but we were not impressed with their communication. We found Renaissance Floral Design and decided to switch just three months before our wedding day, and it is one of the best decisions we made!!! Confidence in your vendors is absolutely priceless, and after the first phone conversation with David, I knew we were in great hands. Everything was absolutely beautiful. The designers even looked at my Pinterest page and called me to chat about my vision. I would absolutely recommend RFD!!!
