Sasha Sent on 06/12/2025Loved The Faded Poppy!!!
We cannot express enough gratitude to The Faded Poppy for the breathtaking floral arrangements they created for our wedding bouquets! From our very first consultation, The Faded Poppy was an absolute pleasure to work with. They listened intently to our vision, adjusted as we worked through the vision, offered excellent suggestions, and truly understood the aesthetic we were hoping to achieve. They even kindly helped us work through last minute freak outs, haha.
The communication throughout the entire process was professional and reassuring. On the wedding day, when the bouquets arrived and filled the space, they were stunning and added that pop of color we were looking for. They were even more breathtaking than we could have imagined - fresh, vibrant, and perfectly arranged, capturing the essence of our day with such elegance. Every detail was meticulously handled, and the quality of the flowers was exceptional.
The Faded Poppy played such a significant role in making our wedding day feel magical and beautiful. We received countless compliments on the flowers, and they looked absolutely incredible in al our photos. We wholeheartedly recommend The Faded Poppy to any couple looking for a truly talented and professional florist who will bring their floral dreams to life for the big day!
Thank you again for everything!

Sara and Jason were nothing short of amazing on our special day! They were both such good support all throughout our planning and our wedding day. If I could do it over again, I would hire them a million times!! Honestly some of the best people I have ever met! -

As a fellow event planning company, we have greatly enjoyed working with Sara and Jason on a few events in the past year. Their adaptability and humor in the face of wedding day challenges is nothing short of amazing. Sara's flowers have been just the perfect natural touch to elevate our tablescapes and our clients have an easy time working with Faded Poppy. They'll stay in our VIP "Friendor" list for sure! -

Andrea Sent on 12/11/2024You will LOVE working with Sara and Jason
We hired Faded Poppy late in the process when it became clear that we needed a month-of coordinator. While we spoke to both Sara and Jason, we primarily worked with Jason. He provided valuable insight in dealing with a difficult venue owner, a challenging floor plan and managing other vendors. Even when things started to go wrong at the reception, Jason kept his cool and worked through the issues. Sara and Jason are good people--just the kind of people you would want at your wedding! -

Stephanie Sent on 11/01/2024Sara is the BEST!
We used Faded Poppy (Sara Kite) as our month-of-coordinator at Wintergreen Resort and she exceeded all expectations! If you are looking for a day-of-coordinator choose Faded Poppy you won't regret it! Sara was able to make our wedding day a dream and kept the event running smoothly! She had to handle a few hiccups on the wedding day.. including unexpected rain that started right before the ceremony. While guests were waiting on the shuttle back to the resort from the ceremony location, she offered her car for my guests to sit in to avoid getting rained on and she stood in the rain and got soaked. When the ceremony location had to be moved to the back up location she came to tell me and person (which I really appreciated) and was able to switch everything with no hesitation and without affecting the timing of the wedding. Even after being soaking wet and slipping and falling on a ramp right before the first dance, she still continued to power through with a smile. Sara is very calm and laid back, which helped keep my husband and I at ease. We wouldn't have been able to get through the wedding without her! I can't recommend Faded Poppy enough! Thank you so much Sara! -

Meaghan Sent on 10/02/2024Amazing moody fall florals for my wedding
Sara and Jason provided AMAZING bouquets and arrangements for my wedding! They took my initial inspiration and ran with it and everything came out stunning - they achieved the moody, jewel-toned, wine-colored look I was going for and made the entire venue look stunning on our big day! Furthermore, Jason was so sweet during delivery on the day-of. The entire booking process was so seamless. Worth every penny for Faded Poppy's expertise, professionalism, and the ease of working together! -

If you want to have dreamy wedding flowers without paying thousands of dollars more than you should, check out Faded Poppy!
We were likely a difficult couple to work with in that hiring a florist was one of the last things on our list as we were struggling with HOW much other florists were charging for the arrangements we were getting quoted. We found Faded Poppy JUST before COVID broke out and then were wishy-washy with our wedding, and ended up postponing. Sara was a champ all through the chaos. With only a few conversations she knew exactly what we wanted and she ended up delivering arrangements almost identical to the photos we had sent her.
I absolutely LOVE how our flowers turned out. Faded Poppy made Big Spring Farm, an already gorgeous wedding venue, that much more dream wedding. -

Sally Sent on 12/03/2020Fantastic!!!
My daughter got married on 10.10.20 at the Red August Farm. We hired Sarah and Jason way back in 2018 to do the flowers as well as wedding planners. At the time we had no idea a pandemic was coming. Skipping to the wedding, Sarah stuck with us and the flowers were stunning and talked about weeks after the wedding. Aside from her gift of a green thumb and flower arranger, Sarah was nothing short of a life saver before and during the wedding. She advised us on how to keep our guests safe and then at the wedding worked tirelessly to keep guests safe. On top of the corona virus we also had remnants of a hurricane to deal with. She kept us all at ease with her confidence and we were able to have a beautiful wedding! We simply could not have had the wedding without her help. I believe the same would have been true even if Coronavirus had not been a thing.
I highly recommend the Faded Poppy! You will not be disappointed...far from it!

There are so many amazing things to say about The Faded Poppy - when I first stepped into their shop in June of 2019, I immediately knew that I wanted to work with Sara and Jason. Sara listened to every idea I had and was very actively thinking of ways to make my vision come true. This was very different from other florists I met with, who seemed to have too many of their own ideas to listen to mine. Their prices are extremely fair, and we ended up using The Faded Poppy for our Rehearsal Dinner and Bridal Luncheon as well. The real magic of this floral shop came when COVID hit - I remember receiving a phone call from Jason on March 14th, right before my wedding had been officially postponed and he was hellbent on reassuring me that everything, from flowers to the I Do's we still going to be perfect no matter what! When we made the decision to cancel two days later, there were no questions asked and The Faded Poppy made every effort to keep things amazing. They offered to do arrangements for my backyard COVID wedding on our original date and then were extremely flexible when it came to decreasing numbers, changes in location, and all the other drama that comes with a COVID wedding! I constantly felt supported and special and like COVID had nothing on the dream day The Faded Poppy wanted to help me create. I love this floral shop, and want to get married to my husband a third time just so I can work with Sara and Jason again! -

Marissa Sent on 12/18/2019They created the best day of our lives
I can’t recommend Sarah and Jason enough. From the beginning they were incredible (and SUPER fun) to work with! I sent them pictures from Pinterest for my wedding inspo, and they made our wedding 1000x better than any of those pictures combined. The florals were outstanding and perfectly placed in all parts of the day. Planning the day itself was a breeze with them and they helped me make sure we had everything done prior to the wedding. Jason executed the entire day flawlessly and the hiccups in the day weren’t even noticed at all. Sarah and Jason make an incredible team and they will make your special day the most incredible day of your lives. They are amazing and hilarious people and we can’t wait to stay in touch and continue to be friends. You need them for your wedding!!! You won’t regret it :) -

Matt Sent on 12/04/2019Great to work with!
We were very happy with Sara's work on our wedding! She was responsive and open to any ideas we had for the big day. On the day of the wedding, she made sure to keep us on track and inform of us anything going on. She made us feel very special! We especially appreciated the responses to our frantic emails the week fo the wedding, and all of the behind-the-scenes work contacting our vendors. -

We had the best experience working with Faded Poppy! From start to finish, we were involved in bringing our ideal floral arrangements to life! So thankful for their help in making our day truly a dream and providing us with options to keep us in budget while ensuring we had the day we imagined. -

Amy Sent on 11/16/2019More then I could have ever imagined
I do not know much about florals, so when planning my wedding I did not have much information to give. I sent Sara and Jason an inspiration board I created for my wedding, and what they put together was more then I could have ever imagined or dreamed of. What they created so was beautiful and so perfectly us (without even meeting us in person!). I never thought I could love a bouquet so much, but now I know it is possible! I had to drive it 1600 miles from Virginia back to Colorado.
Aside from the beauty they create, Sara and Jason are beautiful souls themselves. Working with them was such a blessing. -

Diana Sent on 10/30/2019Beautiful Florals
Sara and Jason did our bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages. Since we are out of state, we communicated 100% by email (by our choice). They were so easy to work with and were super flexible whenever I wanted to make changes or found new inspiration photos. They nailed our vision for our flowers, the prices were reasonable, and everything looked absolutely beautiful!

Amanda Sent on 10/20/2019Gorgeous flowers & wonderful people!
Sara and Jason were simply amazing to work with for our wedding! Not knowing much about flowers at all, I sent Sara a few examples of arrangements, styles and colors that I liked, and they came through with choosing and designing the most perfect flowers for our special day. All of the flower décor from my bridal bouquet to the bridesmaids’ bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, flower girl basket and our arbor décor piece was gorgeous and exactly what we were envisioning. Sara and Jason were so accommodating and easy to work with throughout the whole process, even as I made changes to our requests adding numbers of boutonnieres/corsages and requesting some cake flowers at the last minute. They were the first vendors to arrive at our venue on our wedding day to set up, so it was great for a bride to see flowers already being put into place by the time she arrived. Between the time that the flowers were set up on the arbor for the ceremony and the time the ceremony started, a terrible thunderstorm came through the area with heavy rain and high winds that ended up knocking the arbor over completely, flowers and all – luckily the storm passed quickly and we had a beautiful evening for the ceremony, but as a testament to their quality, the flowers survived the storm beautifully and all in one piece, still providing a gorgeous backdrop while we tied the knot! -

Sara & Jason absolutely hit the nail on the head when it came to delivering on our vision for our wedding. All of the floral decor, the boutonnieres, the bridesmaids bouquet, my bouquet... everything was stunning and exactly what we had envisioned. They made everything so easy leading up to the day, and were so accommodating with last minute changes. They also were very understanding of our budgetary restraints, and somehow were able to deliver everything we wanted with that in mind (how, I don't know.. floral magicians!). Thanks Faded Poppy for everything, you guys are fantastic! -

Stephanie Sent on 07/31/2019The Faded Poppy is the BEST!!!
I'm truly not sure where to begin-- Sara and Jason were simply a dream to work with and helped make our wedding day perfect and magical! We chose to use The Faded Poppy for both florals and planning services. I loved that we did this because they were completely in the know of every detail in regards to the flow of the day AND setup/decor. Throughout the entire process, they were very responsive and easy to work with. One thing that I love about the florals is that all bouquets are always unique to each bride! They truly have an artistic touch on everything they do, which makes each wedding they do that much more personal. As for the wedding day, I didn't have to worry about a thing; Sara took care of everything! And it's worth mentioning that she is very calm and laid back, which helps to put the bride, groom, families, and bridal party at ease. I promise you will be satisfied if you book The Faded Poppy!! -

Lillian Sent on 07/13/2019Faded Poppy is on point and will make your day worry-free
I seriously don't know what we would have done without Sara and Jason with Faded Poppy! They were so helpful in the last minute planning stages of our wedding, helping with the small details we knew nothing about, and generously providing their time for any advice we needed or providing ideas for transportation vendors to work with. And when we had to move to our rain site last minute, Sara handled everything - from coordinating new timelines and plans with our vendors to magically finding last minute flowers for our ceremony rain site (we hadn't needed any in our original outdoor plan). And perhaps most importantly, the only time I panic-cried on my wedding day was when I realized I had forgotten something and it was too late to go back and get it; she told me confidently "Don't you worry, that's my job, I'll figure out a way to get it. You relax, enjoy today" and then sure enough, she figured out a way to get it and the night was absolutely perfect because of it.
Faded Poppy also provided my flowers and she knew I was working on a budget, so she sourced local and they were beautiful and absolutely perfect.
You seriously won't have to worry about a thing with Faded Poppy - my husband and I highly recommend them! -

We were so happy to work with Sara and Jason for our wedding in June at The Market at Grelen. They worked within our budget and were very flexible with changes I made throughout the wedding planning process. All of the flower arrangements turned out beautiful especially the bouquets. We also loved using wooden boxes provided by Faded Poppy as our centerpieces because guests were able to take the boxes home and reuse them. Thank you so much for all of your wonderful work Sara and Jason! -

Nikki Sent on 06/06/2019Fantastic florist
I contacted Faded Poppy for our wedding not having a very specific vision or knowledge of flowers. I gave them some inspiration photos, and my color scheme and Sara was able to run with it and create a wonderful vision for the flowers. She was very knowledgeable about keeping things within our budget but still creating a beautiful product.
The centerpieces she made were beautiful and the bouquets even more stunning. We loved what they created and it added so much to our wedding decor! -

I loved working with The Faded Poppy for my wedding. They responded very quickly to my initial inquiry and nailed my vision based only on internet photos I sent. I still have my wedding bouquet dried and sitting on my dining table. -

Victoria Sent on 11/25/2018Wonderful experience with Sara and Jason!
Sara and Jason were wonderful to work with throughout the wedding planning process, and we absolutely loved our flowers! I didn't know much about flowers, and so gave Sara a rough idea of what I was looking for and she absolutely delivered! I was also unsure and went back and forth on a few decisions towards the end, but Sara was always patient with me, sent me multiple proposals to review, and stayed calm when we almost moved the wedding inside the day before. I also thought that the flowers were extremely reasonably priced!
