    Love Jamie

    Jamie was amazing to work with. She did the flowers for a friend’s wedding which were gorgeous and she was only 5 min from my dads home, so it was a match! She is flexible, can work in budget, honest with me on where I could save and what was more practical for September in Napa. She made simply stunning, organic arrangements. The flower girls loved their head wreaths and baskets. The bouquets were just what I had asked for and more! Stunning. Thanks for making my wedding extra special Jamie! Check out her bud vases at Oxbow Market in Napa.

    Jaime is a true artist! I could not be more thrilled in my decision to do our florals for our private elopement at the Carneros Resort and Spa. I spent some time looking at the websites of different floral designers and the aesthetic of The Monkey Flower Group jumped out at me! I loved the fact that she is an eco-florist (meaning all the flowers are grown on her property and she uses only biodegradable binding) and the examples on her site were so beautiful and full of whimsy. I didn't have a specific idea of what my bouquet should look like... I believe the guidance I gave her was something along the lines of "I like loose, modern bouquets with flowing greenery. My colors are rose quartz and gold and I don't like roses." She took that direction and created the most exquisite bouquet... not even in my wildest imagination could I have come up with something more perfect! She even guided me towards using a vintage scarf given to me by a family member to keep my bouquet eco-friendly but still giving it the polished look of a ribboned (and bad for the earth) arrangement. She also created a totally unique and offbeat boutonniere for my husband- which was just what he wanted! I'm so grateful for Jaime's passion and artistry- she is the best!

    Jaime is amazing. Having the Monkey Flower Group do the flowers for my wedding and welcome party was one of the best decisions I made. I wanted a florist that I could trust to make my vision come to life, but that I didn't have to be extremely specific. When I talked to Jamie, I knew that she totally understood what I wanted. I wanted a lot of whites & greens, and I wanted the florals to be an extension of the beautiful landscape that my venue was in (it was a farm). The Monkey Flower Group also helped with styling - they brought in all the candles, used locally sourced flowers, and even had pieces that we were able to use like marble blocks for table numbers and adorable ceramic vases by a local ceramicist that were just part of her services. Through the entire process, she was considerate, professional, and so helpful and reasonable. I also appreciated that she was so honest with me when it came to the cost, and what was really necessary. When I saw the tables in the barn, and all the other details - I couldn't believe how beautiful her styling was. And best of all, Jamie is so sweet - I felt like I could trust her from the beginning and enjoyed every opportunity to talk or email with her!

    Jaime did an amazing job. We selected her based on her use of local flowers and simple yet chic style. She was incredibly attentive to our needs and responsive to our many questions. Initially, we had envisioned small simple centerpieces but then Jaime had to manage my in-laws desire for larger elegant centerpieces and she came up with someone perfect that made everyone happy. She did not complain once about the back and forth. She looked at our pinterest to interpret our style and even learned about our culture's ceremony customs in order to come up with the perfect arrangements. Everything she created for us embodied our style with ease. She went above and beyond and even created the exact moss bowl for the ring bearer that we wanted. The headpieces for the flower girls were adorable and the petals she gave them to throw were a great mix of herbs and gardena petals which made it smell incredible. I cannot say enough good things about Jaime - she was very reasonable prices, flexible and friendly.

    Jamie did a beautiful job on the flowers for our wedding. She was very easy to work with during the entire process. I kept my bouquet in the vase Jamie provided and was able to enjoy it along with the other flowers for almost a week after the wedding.

    Jaime is not just an amazing professional, she is an artist! Her work has such a sense of place and season. She was a joy to work with and really worked to understand my vision (and my budget - just as important, but not as fun to talk about).

    I looked for so many florists in the Bay Area, and I stopped looking once I found the Monkey Flower Group. I was so impressed with their designs, their commitment to buy and grow locally, and their fantastic customer service. In my first phone call with Jaime at the Monkey Flower Group, I felt like I was talking to a friend about my wedding. She had such fantastic suggestions, and she seemed to really listen to what I wanted. I completely trusted that she would come up with the best floral design possible within our budget, and WOW, did she ever!

    We got so many compliments on our beautiful flowers. I loved my bouquet so much that I carried it with me on my flight back home. The flight attendants kept commenting on not only how beautiful it looked, but on how wonderful it smelled! I couldn’t have been happier with the flowers we got for our wedding, and Jaime was so easy to work with. We had a tight budget, and she really made it work so well. I would highly recommend the Monkey Flower Group to all brides in the area!

    I think my wife liked the florist more than me. Great value, great creativity, great person to work with. Perhaps the best vendor off an impressive list we worked with for our wedding.

    Jaime is not only a florist but an artist! The organic, natural, elegant yet simple look that Jaime created for our wedding tables was a stunning masterpiece. The gorgeous table settings were jaw dropping! From the moment our guests arrived and signed our wishing stones and saw Jaime's beautiful floral pieces to our beautiful birch chuppa to the lovely floral arrangements in our lounge, we could not have been happier with the results. Jaime is so easy to work with to create the vision we could only dream about. Jaime will make your dreams come true for any special occasion. Our wedding was beyond our expectations and in large part to the absolutely breathtaking floral designs created by Jaime.

    I love flowers, especially the kind grown in local gardens and not airlifted from a different continent dipped in preservatives. So when it comes time to plan my wedding, I initially gravitated towards Devoto Gardens (they sell at the SF Ferry Bldg farmer's market) and they recommended Jaime to me.

    Jaime is just so great, in every way. From our first phone chat, to the wedding flowers, the process was easy, simple and just so... wonderful. She suggested I put together a Pinterest page of my wedding style and that was all I did really, I figured I should let the artist do her thing, and boy oh boy did she exceed my expectations. I felt like Jaime read my mind on what I wanted for my wedding flowers, even if I didn't have the language to describe to her what I wanted. She just knew from browsing my pinterest board.

    On the day of the wedding, Jaime didn't just deliver the flowers, she stayed for a good amount of time to assemble the finishing touches and made sure all the flowers were properly displayed the way she wanted on the tables. Jaime styled them all on site as if my wedding was a Style Me Pretty feature, it was just amazing.

    I would give Jaime 10 stars out of 5 if I could. I only wish I lived closer to Napa so I could continue enjoying her work via the flower subscription which she is offering now!

    If you are lucky enough to have Jaime as a possible florist for your wedding, DO NOT LOOK ANY FURTHER!!! When I first met Jaime, my initial thought was, "Wow... I could totally see us being friends." I guess I really didn't think about how much went into the floral aspect of a wedding - how many displays (and what type), what types of flowers based upon color selection, availability, how it will work with the general theme, etc., until I sat down with Jaime. After our first meeting, I knew I was going to have a great time working with her to create the exact feel I wanted.

    Jaime is great about her responsiveness, and is as patient as a saint. Both my now-husband and myself are very 'type-A', and had many questions and concerns which Jaime handled perfectly. She met with us at the wedding site multiple times when she wasn't required to.

    I also want to point out that I made it very hard for Jaime because I didn't give her many specifics... I wanted a general theme (rustic/vintage, etc.) and color palate (that being said I am a perfectionist and don't usually trust anyone without being able to see the end product - I actually painted my own signs and created my invitations because I didn't trust anyone else).

    Fast forward to the day of the wedding… as I was finishing getting ready Jaime arrived to start the set up. She came in with the bouquets and my hair clip, and I honestly could not believe how perfect she designed the flowers. The color, texture, size - EVERYTHING was absolutely perfect. I couldn't wait to see everything else after she was finished. When I snuck a peek at the table arrangements and aisle, I almost started crying. She transformed my wedding into something that was beautiful, to something breathtaking. She exceeded my expectations, as well as all my guests. The flowers were the highlight of my wedding (even my mother-in-law was floored, and she is a hard person to please).

    Thank you Jaime for such an amazing job!!!

    Jaime is a dear friend of mine and my husband and I were so thrilled to use her services for our September wedding in Sonoma. Talk about going above and beyond the call of duty...Jaime started planning with us more than a YEAR before the event, she promptly and accurately documented all of our discussions, and she produced floral arrangements that exceeded even our wildest expectations.

    More than anything, above her incredible skill, professionalism, and artistic eye, I have to thank Jaime for hearing all of our requests, visions, and conversations and distilling them into a beautiful palette that was cohesive, complementary and visually dazzling. The flower colors, textures and composition were FABULOUS.

    Jaime is also an amazing problem-solver and didn't hesitate to jump in and help with both planning issues and day-of snags. She was diligent with our budget, always available and prompt with answers, and flexible with changes.

    You should absolutely choose The Monkey Flower Group for your wedding or wine country event. You'll have gorgeous, wild, unique arrangements that reflect the beauty of Northern California and get to work with a delightful person to boot!

    Jaime arranged the flowers for my wedding on August 25, 2012. Everything was spectacular!!! We had some unique requests for floral arrangements including leis for the bridesmaids (instead of bouquets) and a large chuppah, that couldn't use steaks in the ground given the property's policies. The leis turned out beautiful and Jaime was thoughtful about not having flowers that would cause irritation on the bridesmaid's skin. The chuppah was beautiful. Jaime constructed the chuppah from scratch to fit the requirements for our wedding. She draped the chuppah with white chiffon and then worked with my aunt to hang strings of origami cranes in the back. Can I say, we received so many compliments on how incredibly beautiful the chuppah was. I loved my bouquet as well, where Jaime fulfilled my desire for an organic, wildflower-y bouquet with lots of colors. It stood the test of time as well!

    But more than just that, Jaime was such a lovely person to work with. She was competent- always following up our conversations with detailed synopses of what she thought I wanted. She was eager to figure out what our vision was and really took our direction. I can say, I totally trusted whatever she was going to do and it turned out great! More than just that, Jaime was willing to work with our budget. In a world full of upselling, I can't tell you how much I appreciated that Jaime was respectful of our price range.

    I highly recommend The Monkey Flower Group to anyone who is going to get married in Sonoma. You cannot ask for anything more in a florist! Thanks Jaime for making our wedding beautiful.

    We don't have enough wonderful things to say about Jaime Giorgi and The Monkey Flower Group! Throughout our wedding planning process, Jaime was friendly, kind, professional, fun to work with, flexible, and incredibly creative. She is amazingly talented, and for our wedding day she designed gorgeous arrangements for the ceremony site, chuppah, and reception site, in addition to beautiful flowers for the whole family and wedding party to wear and hold. Jaime helped us hone our vision for our wedding day and then she brought it to life so beautifully that it took our breath away! We highly recommend Jaime and The Monkey Flower Group.

    Even though I've long admired the work of The Monkey Flower Group, Jaime absolutely exceeded my expectations at our June wedding in Yountville, CA.

    Working with Jaime was wonderful. She is very professional - prompt, thorough, and knowledgeable but also friendly and down-to-earth. Throughout the wedding planning process, Jaime asked just the right questions which quickly made me confident in her abilities and allowed me to trust her 100% (which is saying A LOT since flowers were the thing I cared about the most in our wedding).

    The products Jaime uses are of the highest quality. Unlike some other florists we talked to, everything she uses is locally sourced, biodegradable, and earth friendly (no additional cost for gimmicky "green" products). She grew up in the Napa Valley and has an exceptional knowledge of local growers and availability.

    When I look back at the photographs of our wedding, I am thrilled at how everything turned out! Aside from the location (and my husband), it is absolutely the flowers the steal the show :)

    Jaime loves and really knows flowers! She carefully listens to the bride (and her mother!) as to what they want their wedding to be- casual, formal, etc and does a great job figuring out which flowers will work with the season, always keeping in mind the flower colors requested. Jaime is very conscientious of "the budget" and is in constant communication about all of the details. Her designs are so creative and fun...don't be surprised if everyone at the wedding is talking about the flowers!

    I was keenly interested in my wife's choice of wedding flowers and the company she selected to adorn our nuptials turned out to be ideal. I wanted my wife to be happy with every detail. That said, my expectations were high because in my profession I routinely attend formal special events, each of which are often decorated with stunning floral arrangements. We were extremely pleased with Jaime's artistic sense and the composition of each arrangement. It was more than flowers, Jaime created a visual art form that was perfect.

    When the Monkey Flower Group van pulled up to our venue I was given a sneak preview of Jaime's work. I was stunned. She has an eye for detail and design that I have rarely seen. There is something unique about her work. She managed to "plus" everything. Each arrangement was perfect and I can't really describe how exactly, it all just looked "right". Jaime has talent, a lot of it, and her work is beautiful. Many of our guests commented on the flowers as being ideal for the setting and we agree with them.

    Aside from her work, which is exceptional, Jaime was easy to work with, on schedule, and very flexible. We gave her our parameters and she took it from there. She is a professional. I highly recommend the Monkey Flower Group for your event, you will be elated if you do.

    If I could give more stars I would. Jaime's flowers stole the show at my wedding on at the Cornerstone Gardens, and her work exceeded all expectations. It seemed as if no amount of bugging on my part was too much -- she always replied in full via email and phone. Her generosity in time and enthusiasm know no bounds. She loves what she does and wants nothing more than to create her client's vision. I only wish I could go back in time and sit quietly with my husband and gaze at the beauty of her work. Thank you Jaime for helping make our wedding so memorable.

    Going into my meeting with Jaime, I didn't have a very specific idea of what I wanted the flowers for our wedding to look like. Jaime was super helpful in helping me determine what sorts of themes I liked, color palettes, specific flowers to include or not include, and the overall style I was going for. The bouquets she made were gorgeous, whimsical and earthy yet still refined.
    She always responded promptly to my emails, and sent updated invoices anytime we changed anything, so there were no surprises. She made flower bracelets for my bridesmaids and even made a tiny one for the flower girl! She was great to work with and I really recommend her services.

    I don't really remember how I found out about Jaime and The Monkey Flower Group, but I am so thankful that I did! She was amazing from the beginning to the end! After our first consultation, I liked her personality so much that I decided to book her for our wedding without any hesitation.

    She was always always attentive to my ideas and knew exactly what I wanted. And the thing I liked most about her was her communication skills! She always responded promptly to all my emails. And the best part is, her flowers are gorgeous! Her flowers have such an organic and clean look, and they don't look like the typical wedding flowers I used to see a lot in magazines. Jaime has very unique and amazing skills to bring out the natural beauty of flowers. I highly recommend Jaime if you are looking for wedding florist or flowers for any special occasion.

    I was a bride who didn't really know what I wanted - and I'm sure that made it MUCH more difficult for Jaime. I told her a few ideas that I thought I wanted to do with flowers, which wasn't much and she was able to come up with something AMAZING!! She knew what I wanted even when I didn't. I was blown away when I saw her display of flowers for the ceremony and the reception. She went above and beyond what I had even imagined. It was beautiful!!!!! Jaime was very responsive and was always quick to email/call me back if I had questions and had no problem dealing with last minute changes. I have already recommended her to friends getting married and would recommend her to anyone that asks. I loved working with her and hope that I can work her again at some point!

    My favorite vender from our wedding!!  Jaime was incredible- she sincerely  listened to what we wanted, and created truly beautiful flowers.  I love her aesthetic, and the care she puts into sourcing local and unique products.  On the big day, she was extremely professional: she supervised all of the arrangements at the venue, and then personally delivered the bouquets and flowers to wear to our house where we were getting ready.  The way she casually displayed the bouquets and boutiniers in wooden wine boxes while everyone was getting ready was so pretty that our photographer used it as a featured shot. She also built us an incredible chuppah!

    Jaime did the flowers for our wedding and she was awesome. She has great taste and is creative, reliable, professional, and flexible. We couldn't have asked for more. The Monkey Flower Group is the best you can get. A+.

    This was the best vendor that I chose for my wedding. Jaime created beautiful arrangements that are unique and different. She uses all local and sustainable flowers and plants. For our wedding she used flowers and potted plants. We now have our potted plants in our home and planted some in our garden. Even my husband was in awe of of the flowers and plant composites. I am already planning on using her again for my Christmas party.
