Nicole was wonderful to work with! She was responsive to my questions in the planning process of trying to decide how many flowers I needed and styles for the buquet. She sent me samples so I could see the different flower types in person, and kept me updated throughout the process. All of the arrangements from the buquets, to the boutonnieres, to the table stems, to the garland we're absolutely gorgeous. I highly recommend using her skills!

I highly recommend Nicole for every bride! She was quick to respond, answered all my questions and concerns, and kept me thoroughly updated throughout the entire process. The bouquets, boutinierres and corsages look amazing and feel so real, and now I have them for forever as a keepsake of my special day.

Nicole was AMAZING to work with. Her flowers are so unique and her arrangements are beautiful. She worked with our very short rushed time-frame, and her prices were reasonable. The shipment arrived in time and was perfectly and safely packed in the boxes.

Nicole is such a pleasure to work with. She made everything very simple to understand as far as my options went. My bouquets, boutonniere and centerpieces far exceeded my expectations. I cannot rave enough about how great they look and she worked with my budget (which wasn’t much at all).

I would highly recommend her for any projects! I felt that she went above and beyond to make everything perfect!!

My flowers look amazing! Nicole was very quick to respond to my messages and worked with my budget to create bouquets and boutonnieres for my wedding. I could not be happier! She sent me messages through the whole process to update me with what was going on. I'm almost kinda disappointed to throw my toss bouquet because it is so beautiful. I would highly recommend her! She is wonderful to work with.

I found Nicole through Etsy. When I found Nicole's store, I instantly fell in love with some of the arrangements she had and it immediately put my mind at ease about using artificial flowers. My fiance was still a little hesitant until he could see something in person. We decided to order just the top arrangements for archways for the ceremony decorations. She was very patient with my million and one questions and sent me a ton of pictures of flower options, colors, etc. She worked very quickly! Once we opened the box for the top arrangements, my soon to be husband was blown away, as was I, and gave his immediate stamp of approval to continue with silk flowers for everything else.

All in all, I've been working with Nicole since November on all of my wedding flower needs. She made our top arrangements for archways, my bouquet, corsages, and bouts. Everything looks absolutely gorgeous! She was amazing to work with. She was very patient, offered great suggestions, hand dyed items herself if colors didn't come the color we were expecting, fit perfectly into our budget, and created flawless designs! I just about cried when I held my bouquet for the first time taking it out of the box.

Deciding to work with Nicole on all my flower needs is the absolute best decision I made for the wedding - second only to the decision to marry my best friend and soulmate! I am so happy with the quality, color, design, and attention to detail that went into every piece. The best part will be that I get to keep my bouquet as a keepsake! I plan to keep it on display in a vase on a shelf on our wall with some of our other wedding items (sand ceremony frame and guestbook drop box).

I only wish I could come up with more reasons to need flower arrangements in my life! I'll be referring all my friends her way! I wish I could include pictures for you all to see the amazing work she did for me!

Nicole was beyond amazing to work with. She was quick to respond to all my questions and really helped to create exactly what I wanted! She never lost patience with me and understood my "wedding brain" which flip flopped more often than not and her prices where reasonable and well within my budget. If you're looking for exquisitely made silk flowers for your special day, UYflowersbynicole is definitely the place to go!!!! Seriously, Nicole, you rocked it!!!!!!!!!

I ordered my wedding flowers through Nicole's Etsy page and couldn't be happier. I was a bit nervous about using artificial flowers for my wedding, but am so glad I decided to go that route. The flowers I received are beautiful and look real. Nicole is amazing to work with. She was able to work within my budget while providing me with exactly what I wanted, she was in constant communication about what was happening with my order and even sent photos to me for approval before shipping.
I would highly recommend Nicole's services to anyone, you wont be disappointed!

Nichole is amazing! She is very detailed oriented. Every single idea I had she made it happen. She made all of my centerpiece bouquets, my cascading bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets, corsages, boutinneieres. She even designed a hair piece that I wanted! Everything was amazing. All of the products were made of great quality products. Nothing fell apart. In the beginning I told her my budget and what I wanted and she responded quickly and professionally. I have recommended her to my friends that are getting married!

I worked with Nicole through Etsy.com to order a personalized silk flower bouquet. (https://www.etsy.com/shop/UYFlowersByNicole)
I cannot express in words how appreciative, grateful, and thankful I am for Nicole. She worked with me to create the perfect, personalized bouquet for my wedding. What can I say? It is absolutely gorgeous!! She even made a different coloring of Calla for me (one she did not usually do) because I asked. Nicole made sure we fully understood each other each step of the way. She even sent pictures to me (as needed) to make sure we understood each other.
Nicole also verified my entire order with me with each detail description prior to ordering supplies and putting up a custom listing for me.
I fully plan to order from her again!! I would love some matching house decor with the same flowers from my bouquet!!
I would recommend her everyone out there!!

I absolutely loved working with Nicole! Out of all the different vendors I worked with during my wedding planning season, she was the most responsive, informative and kind. I ordered my bouquet, my bridesmaids bouquet, toss posy, boutonnieres, and corsages through Nicole. She answered my many questions and really walked me through the entire process of ordering my silk wedding flowers. She sent me pictures and even a few samples so I could get a better visual of what the final product would look like. She was more than willing to work within my budget. My flowers turned heads and literally took my breath away. I would recommend Uniquely You Flowers by Nicole 10x over! Thank you, Nicole, for helping make our special day beautiful -- I have my bouquet displayed on our new mantel; a sweet reminder of a wonderful day and celebration.

When looking for flowers for my wedding, my previously married friend had went through Etsy and got beautiful burlap rose bouquets for us bridesmaids. I still have mine! This made me want to get fake arrangements for my own wedding instead of wasting money on flowers that could be wilted by the afternoon wedding in the summer and gone in a day. I like a boho/vintage style for myself and when I stumbled upon Nicole's Etsy shop and saw the most beautiful ombre-dyed orchid arrangements. I immediately knew those were the ones and contacted her to get started on this. Within no time she had ordered the supplies and walked through every step of the way in her process of creating these beautiful flowers. She even sends images of the finished product before shipping out to make sure you're happy with how it looks. I needed a minor change and it was done within a day. The entire time her responses to questions or the process was so quick and efficient! I just received the package today which only took a few short days - it was smooth from beginning to end. She's incredibly sweet and professional and you'll be happy you went with her!

Working with Nicole turned out to be the perfect decision for my wedding flowers!! We communicated via email long-distance, which made me nervous at first, but she listened to all of my requests and made informed suggestions based on my taste. She also sent photos of vases and let me choose. At first, I was not thrill about using fake flowers, but it turned out to be the perfect decision because I dropped my bouquet often, and I did not have to worry about ruining the flowers and getting my dress stained from the green stems. The fake flowers are very high quality and fooled ALL of my guests. I HIGHLY recommend making your florist for any event, she knows what she's doing!!

Nicole was wonderful to work with. :) she was patient, kind, understanding, and she knows what she's doing. She took my ideas of how I wanted my bouquet and made my bouquet exactly how I wanted it and went above and beyond! She shows you your product before it's shipped for approval and when I got my bouquet it was better than what the pictures looked like. In person they are beautiful! I'm so glad I went to Nicole for my flowers for my wedding day! I can't wait to use them! :)

In the chaos of planning my wedding, Nicole has been more than an angel. All of my many questions answered with a prompt, professional enthusiasm only found in people who love what they do. My flowers are absolutely breathtaking, completely personalized, and I could rave for pages about what a sweetheart Nicole is to work with! I could not believe how quickly I got my flowers and ...I actually smelled them. :D My personalized calla lilies with pearl stamen feel absolutely real! I have no regrets about ordering silk flowers as I get to keep my beautiful, personalized art. I only regret that I don't have more people to rave to about her work. ...but I am showing pictures to everyone I know! :D

I sent Nicole (and several other florists on etsy) a photo of a bouquet that I based my ENTIRE wedding theme around, hoping she could recreate it. She responded quickly & even gave a complete list of each flower in it. She kept in touch throughout the whole process & even worked on my order the DAY AFTER she received puncture wounds to her hand by having "extra hands" help her. She went above & beyond my expectations. She quoted me 4-6 weeks for custom work, but she finished it in less than 3 weeks! I received my bouquet and matching grooms boutonniere yesterday, packaged nicely & in perfect condition. It is ABSOLUTELY perfect & exactly how I imagined. Full, big, & all the flowers looks so realistic! I can't say enough good things about her work & will definitely recommend her to all my engaged friends! Thank you so much Nicole! I love it!!

Nicole does AMAZING work and was so easy with communication. I sent her a swatch of my bridesmaid dresses and she worked with my colors. I am beyond excited with what she made for my wedding!! Once she made everything it was fast shipping and the flowers arrived wonderfully. Have no doubts, go with Uniquely You Flowers! I'm so glad I did and now I have my beautiful flowers 2 months before my wedding (on 5/24)!! Thanks again!

Nicole was very accommodating! I really wanted a "Crafty" Bouquet of Paper, Fabric & Ribbon Flowers so i made them for her & she was able to create wonderful bouquets with them along with Boutineers. i think i changed my mind about 20 times for the center pieces but she was able to help me with what i was trying to envision & came up with a wonderful idea for them & they was spectacular... i was on a very tight budget & Nicole was able to work with what i had & made ot look great!!! was very pleased with the final outcome!!!

Awesome! I couldn't have asked for a easier process of customizing and ordering flowers! When I got it in the mail and out of the box it still looked absolutely perfect! I have it in my office as of right now, and every time I walk by my office I see my beautiful flowers!

I was looking for a very specific flower and Nicole's Etsy shop popped up. Nicole was able to make me a custom order working with the budget that I set. Her attention to detail is awesome. Her bouquet wraps matched my blue dress perfectly, and all of the participants loved their flowers. The flowers were so beautiful and really elevated my dress to something even more beautiful. I would highly recommend you work with Nicole for your flowers for your special day. I was able to see pictures of the flowers before shipping and could still change something if needed, though they were perfect!. Her turn around time was fantastic and she rushed my order for me. If I haven't convinced you yet, my maid of honor asked if she should refrigerate the flowers immediately after the ceremony. She had held the flowers for at least 30 minutes and thought they were real.

Nicole Of Uniquely You Flowers was amazing to work with! She not only is a complete down to earth sweetheart but her quality of work and talents are out of this world! My biggest fear of planning a wedding was to purchase something (in this case flowers) that would wilt away. When I was recommended to Nicole I was so anxious to meet her and see what these silk flowers were all about! She was so patient with my indecisiveness and gave me time and plenty of options to work off of. Nicole was BEYOND helpful & puncutual. I will find a reason to order from her again because this is something I can literally stare at each and every day which gives me such heart warming reminders of our special day. My girls took their bouqets also as keep sakes, and in all hope to get Nicole lots of business! I highly recommend you get in contact with this woman for your future wedding plans and see what amazing things she has to offer!

Thank you so much Nicole for making my dreams come true and helping maintain budget. She was so professional and had such patience with my detailed self. Everyone raved about the bouquets and could not believe they were not real flowers. I look forward to using your flowers again In the future.

Thank you

I met Nicole through a bridal show in Somersworth, NH. At the time I was very skeptical of using silk flowers for our wedding ceremony, but as I looked at Nicole's bouquets and then went home and looked into it more I realized that silk flowers were the absolute best choice for what we wanted! I contacted Nicole immediately since there was only 2 months until my wedding! Nicole went ABOVE and BEYOND my expectations! Our flowers were absolutely beautiful and nobody could even tell they were silk.. In fact the wedding planner at our venue put the bridesmaids bouquets in water! The colors I wanted for the bouquets were not available in the flowers that I originally wanted- so Nicole, being the genius creator she is.. HAND PAINTED my calla lilies to match PERFECTLY! Overall the price, the quality, the service, the communication, the creativity, and the final outcome exceeded my (and my husband's) expectations 10 fold. Nicole is wonderful!!!! And I recommend using her for all your floral needs! Beautifully done!

Nicole made all the silk flowers for our wedding, including bouquets, centerpieces, large vase displays, and a four foot diameter round fire pit full of flowers featuring blue orchids and gardenias. She was very good with communication and always made any requested changes I had. We had her come to our out of state venue to do all the floral setup as well. Everything was perfect! My family and I still decorate our houses with the flowers from our wedding. I can't thank her enough for making our big day perfect!

Nicole created my wedding bouquets for the bride, bridesmaids and all the bouts for the groom and groomsmen plus she created a center piece for the head table. The flowers were made of silk, where gorgeous, arrived early and will last forever. I had an idea for the bridal bouquet and with those ideas and Nicole's abilities and talent she created the most beautiful flower arrangements. Nicole redid one of her swags to use as a center piece for the head table. Her flowers are still being talked about.

Nicole is very professional, knowledgeable and very open to ideas to create the masterpiece you want. Her prices are more than reasonable and I would not hesitate to use her services again. I would highly recommend her to any one that is seeking flower arrangements of any kind.
