    Edmondson Wedding

    Carla is the best, hands down!!! She is professional, organized, and willing to work with you on any unique request. Our flowers were absolutely gorgeous and the arrangement of everything looked beautiful. She included all the colors we wanted and made our venue look amazing. She took my vision and made it a reality! I couldn't recommend her service more!!

    Brought all the color!!

    Carla really helped to bring the pop of summer color that I was looking for! I told her my vision of pinks and yellows and she nailed it! Helped to make my science/beaker centerpieces look wedding ready, and all at a totally resonable price.

    Best Wedding Planning Decision I Made!

    Working with Carla was an absolute dream! I went into our planning call with an organized list of general ideas, a reasonable budget, and a lot of faith in her work. Considering I am no professional, I knew I wanted to give my florist some creative freedom since they know what looks best. I was in awe of how perfect everything turned out...and again for a reasonable price!! Carla went above and beyond anything I could have thought up and was the sweetest to work with. This is a decision I would make over and over again if given the opportunity.

    Best florist around!!

    Carla was an incredible asset to our wedding team. I was completely clueless about what kind of flowers/greens I wanted and when I showed her a picture, she knew exactly what I wanted and created the most beautiful arrangements. She went above and beyond to arrange our ceremony florals. She is so personable and easy to work with, and clearly loves what she does. Everything came out beautifully and I cannot recommend Carla enough!

    Absolutely hands down best experience

    Carla was my absolute FAVORITE vendor my entire wedding process who I worked with. She was courteous, patient, responded promptly and NEVER once made me feel like she “wasn’t on me yet” despite all of the other weddings (and micro weddings) that came before mine. She is sooo down to earth, kind, and so perfect at what she does. She got my vision down pat perfectly. I honestly had a lot of hiccups throughout the pandemic with other vendors causing me to panic often but I never once felt that way with her nor did I ever doubt The Blue Chrysanthemum and I truly felt 110% confident. She was fair priced and affordable compared to other florists I got quotes from. I simply think she gets joy out of making couples happy without over charging since she knows how expensive everything is and adds up to be! Do not hesitate to book her for your wedding or special occasion! We are not from the area where we got married and my now husband states we will figure out a way to work with her again even if it’s just for a one year anniversary bouquet. Carla is the best!!!

    Our flowers were PERFECT!

    Working with Carla was a literal dream! She was so kind and easy to work with, she helped us figure out what look we were going for and the perfect flowers to fit the season. She matched the ideas I showed her PERFECTLY and the bouquets and boutonnieres came out beautifully. Our center pieces were stunning and she took care of all the set up day of so it was one last thing we didn't need to stress over. Carla was absolutely incredible and I hope I have another event requiring flowers soon just for an excuse to hire her again.

    Beautiful Florals!

    Carla is not only such a sweet person but the best choice for a florist in South Jersey. She is great at understanding what your vision is and executing it beautifully. Her pricing is very reasonable. When we arrived at the venue she already had it completely decorated with flowers and centerpieces and she really made everything feel so special.

    Caring. Talented. Perfect. Best of the Best!

    Stop searching and hire Carla IMMEDIATELY. I interviewed five florists but no one understood my vision like Carla did. I knew from the first meeting that I found the perfect florist designer. Carla showed up early and set up all of my flowers exactly right, even in the rain. She took into consideration every detail and worked her magic. My stubborn puppy refused to wear the beautiful wreath Carla made and so on the spot, Carla created a brand new collar bouquet for her. Our guests raved about each creation. We were so lucky to have met Carla!

    Flowers were absolutely stunning!

    The flowers Carla delivered for our Dec 2022 wedding were perfect! I sent Carla a few photos of what I was looking for and let her run with it. Everything turned out absolutely beautifully! The Blue Chrysanthemum is someone you can trust to put together beautiful flowers for your wedding day.

    So perfect!

    Carla was fabulous! She heard and saw exactly what I wanted and brought it to life. Despite the last-minute change of venues due to covid (originally would have been 5 minutes from her house, changed to be about 2 1/2 hours away), she stuck by our side and made me one happy happy happy bride with her amazing work. I'd recommend her to anyone--you show her a picture, she can replicate it!

    The Blue Chrysanthemum's reply:

    Thanks so much Danielle and Tom! You both looked great! And you know I love nothing more than a farm wedding!

    Amazing!

    Carla is by far the best! We had such an amazing experience from the start. She has such an amazing talent, and the flowers are absolutely beautiful. The day of the wedding, she took the time to help me add last minute charms to the parents flowers. The outside ceremony was absolutely gorgeous, and exactly how I imagined it. My bouquet and my girls bouquets were beyond beautiful. If you are looking for a florist, look no further!! She’s the best around, and we can’t thank her enough for making our day so beautiful and special!

    Dream Vendor

    Working with Carla was a dream - from initial conversations to planning the flowers to execution. She is so creative, open-minded and really worked with us to achieve our vision. She was always so responsive and never hesitated to answer a question. She is organized, detail-oriented and prepared for everything! We had two minor mishaps (user error) with the boutonnieres and she worked quickly to create new ones. I would work with her again in a heartbeat.

    Carla is Awesome!

    Carla was such a pleasure to work with, my husband and I went to see her about a year before the wedding and booked her right away! We had many changes in that year and Carla was very accommodating and quick to respond to my many emails. The vision we had was far exceeded. We received so many compliments on our centerpieces, ceremony decor and our sweetheart table. Thanks Carla!

    Amazing!

    Carla is amazing she really listens and was able to bring my dream to life. The floral arrangements from the bouquets to the sweetheart table was breath taking. She truly has a talent and spot on with translating your visions. She is super easy to work with and to talk to. She is reasonable priced and works with your budget. I absolute would recommend Carla to every one.

    Amazing Experience!

    Highly recommend! We used Carla for our fall wedding on 10/27/2018. Everything looked beautiful and perfectly coordinated!!! The flowers truly tied our autumn wedding look together. Having little experience with floral arrangement, Carla walked me through different options and ran with our vision. She even traveled on the wedding day from the church, to the bride's house and then to the reception to deliver fresh flowers on a rainy day. Super easy to work with and responsive. Very clear in her communication, no surprises. Everything was very reasonably priced and we were able to work within our budget to have beautiful flowers on our wedding day.

    Absolute Perfection!

    The Blue Chrysanthemum is the best! We were so happy with the way everything turned out. I knew I wanted something different for our centerpieces, Carla came to me with amazing ideas! Everything was delivered promptly and set-up just the way we discussed. I can't thank hem enough!

    Carla was absolutely fabulous to work with. I just got married this past Saturday and I could not have asked for anything more beautiful than what she arranged for me. We met with Carla twice at her house during our planning. We would end up hanging around way longer than necessary just to chat. She was very welcoming and made us feel right at home, my husband and her son even hit it off with their mutual love of cooking. Carla was very responsive and laid back. She made it a very easy, stress free process. She was so easy going and made everything seem like a breeze. I can't recommend her enough!

    Carla did an absolutely AMAZING job on the flowers for my wedding! They were just what I wanted. She used fresh flowers for my bouquet and my husbands’ boutineir and she used dried lavender for my bridesmaids and the groomsmen. The lavender smelled wonderful! We were all definitely relaxed! The attention to detail on the twine ribbon that I asked for on each bouquet and boutineir was just perfect to tie into my decor. Every strip of the wash Carla was so professional and accommodating to my wants and needs. I highly recommend The Blue Chrysanthemum!!! Thanks again!!

    Carla was the bomb! she did an amazing job. I had no idea what I wanted, so I told Carla to do her thing. With little direction from me, she created the most beautiful arrangements! They went perfect with my colors and venue. She truly went above and beyond for us! Everyone was fighting over the centerpieces.

    Carla is AMAZING. She was by far the standout vendor from our wedding. Kind, detail-oriented, easy to work with, flexible, amazing vision - I could go on forever. I don't know much about flowers and explained the general idea of what I was looking for - wildflowers, loose bouquets, natural - and she nailed it. I carried my bouquet around for the entire cocktail hour because I loved it so much. The centerpieces were perfect and all of the extra touches she added to tie in the flowers with the feel of the event did not go unnoticed. Our guests were raving about the beauty and ambiance of the venue - due in large part to the flowers. I feel like she should have charged me more for the quality of what we received. I wish everybody I worked with on my wedding was able to work within the budget I gave them and turn out the quality of work that Carla did. Highest recommendations!
