User1848927 Sent on 10/06/2014Shannon is amazing! I gave her some ideas and some creative leeway to produce the bouquets for myself and my bridesmaids. They were exactly what I wanted- whimsical, beautiful, and each one was just a little different. She is so sweet and very talented. -

Morgan Sent on 02/10/2015I chose Shannon to do the flower arrangements for my wedding and oh man did I make the best decision ever! I almost went with fake flowers to cut costs down but everyone kept telling me it would be worth the money to do real ones. I came across Shannon's website and was in awe over all her photos. She was the most inexpensive flower shop I had found. Her prices beat all the other quotes I had received from other shops. She was super easy to work with and honestly her flowers made my wedding. They were absolutely breathtaking! Do not ever think about doing fake flowers choose Shannon to do your floral arrangements. You won't be sorry! Your guests will be ooo-ing and awe-ing over your flowers! Thank you so much Shannon! You took my vision and made it a reality. It was a dream come true : ) I am forever grateful. -

Kat Sent on 08/31/2010Shannon, the owner of Sunblossoms Floral, did a fantastic job with the flowers for my wedding. She patiently helped me figure out what exactly I wanted and was willing to change things as my ideas solidified later on. She was a pleasure to work with and the flowers looked amazing, were of high quality, and didn't cost as much as other floral designers. Bravo for Sunblossoms Floral!! -

Claudia Sent on 09/06/2009Our flowers turned out better than I could have ever imagined. Shannon is very creative and had a ton of great ideas. She was quick to reply to any questions I had, and was able to work with my budget. She was very punctual the day of the wedding. I would definitely recommend her anyone. -
User1507533 Sent on 01/14/2014Shannon was wonderful and super professional. She came recommended to me by a friend and when I spoke with her she definitely understood the vision I wanted to create for our wedding. She also went above and beyond, altering almost everything last minute to accommodate an unforeseen venue change in the eleventh hour.
I would use her again without hesitation. -

Heather Sent on 04/26/2009Shannon worked with us on what we wanted and helped us actually figure out what we wanted as flowers because truthfully we had no idea other than the colors. The flowers she brought to our wedding were better than I ever imagined and acually lasted for a pretty long time so we were able to keep beautiful mementos of our wedding in our house and to brighten it up. She'll brighen up your wedding with her creations in a way you never knew possible. -

Jessica Sent on 07/17/2011I met with several florists a few months before our wedding to discuss what we needed. Since it was a backyard wedding with no wedding party, we had a rather modest order. Shannon came highly recommended by my sister-in-law, who used her for her wedding in 2009, although another sister-in-law commented that the flowers at that wedding had wilted very early. It was suggested that was due to the more delicate flowers that had been used, but I specifically discussed the hardiness of the flowers we were using, and was assured that my selections would be just fine.
One month before my wedding, I had not heard from Shannon to schedule the follow-up appointment to finalize the order. I sent her an email asking when she would like to meet, and advised her I had some changes to make. Despite an email and a phone call (that went straight to voicemail), she did not get back to me for a week. We ended up exchanging emails to discuss the changes I wanted, and I thought everything was fine. She said only that she would deliver my flowers by 4 on the wedding day (pictures at 5, ceremony at 7), and that she would get back to me with that information. I wasn't terribly concerned when she didn't tell me an ETA for the wedding day.
Imagine my surprise when I got to the ceremony site at noon and was told that the flowers had been delivered nearly three hours earlier. Apparently Shannon dropped them off and left very quickly with instructions to refrigerate everything. I can only imagine that the reason she did not stay to discuss the flowers and their care with my mother-in-law is because she had used inferior flowers which were beginning to wilt and turn brown.
The centerpieces had white hydrangeas, white lisianthus, and freesia with pink lisianthus accent. The hydrangeas were turning brown and looked incredibly wilted. The pink lisianthus was far more lavender than the pale pink I had wanted. The roses in my bouquet were starting to turn brown at the tips of the petals - with seven hours to go until the ceremony.
But the cake topper was the absolute worst part. Rather than constructing an actual cake topper that could simply be placed on the cake at the time of delivery, Shannon put eight wilting roses that were already starting to turn brown and lose their petals into a vase, stems and all, along with some freesia that was also losing its petals. Apparently someone else was supposed to put these flowers onto the cake, though that was certainly not explained to me and NOT what I paid for. Fortunately, a friend's mother is a former florist and she came over to help me out and transform the roses into the cake flowers that I'd requested. She took one look at the cake flowers and declared them to be ugly and in bad shape. She graciously took over the project, and went out to Michaels and the grocery store to find suitable flowers and made an absolutely gorgeous cake topper that looked lovely on our cake. It cost her $30 - a mere $10 more than what Shannon charged me for a sparse and unsuitable arrangement. If you want to see the cake flowers, take a look at my profile picture - that's how they were delivered, vase and all.
My mother and MIL did the best they could to cut off petals on the centerpieces to make them look presentable, but everyone who was there during the set up agreed that they looked unimpressive, including my husband. My bouquet was rough looking during the wedding, despite having been in water for most of the 10 hours it was at the house before the wedding. I turned it so that the worst of the flowers were facing me, but it was still disappointing. After the wedding, I cut the stems and put it in a vase with water, and it perked up somewhat. But a mere three days after the wedding I was pulling out totally rotten and brown rosebuds that had never opened. A $125 bouquet of roses should not be in such poor shape after just three days. I've had bouquets from the supermarket last longer than this.
To sum up this long review: I found the flowers and Shannon's service and professionalism to be disappointing in nearly every aspect. I cannot recommend her to anyone.
