    Sallie and the design team at Watkins were amazing! I was very nervous about talking with a florist. She immediately make me feel at ease. They were very respectful of my budget. The bouquets, boutonnieres were so beautiful!

    Nothing but high praises for Watkins! They were responsive, attentive to detail, and very respectful of our budget. They even gave us recommendations for saving money. It was easy to see they were passionate about their work. We loved how everything turned out and we received lots of compliments from our guests! I was most excited about my flower crown, and it turned out perfect!

    Thanks for those kind words, Savannah. It was great to work with you and we loved your vision!

    I can't say enough wonderful things about this group! Meeting with Diana and Sallie was easy, comfortable, productive, and exciting. After having a florist tell me that my ideas and budget were "completely unrealistic" I was discouraged to say the least. Diana and Sallie were the exact opposite. They had wonderful ideas for creating the look I wanted at the budget I was comfortable with. Everything with weddings can be so budget oriented it was wonderful for someone to actually hear the budget and work around it. Unlike many vendors who meet with you to "vet your seriousness", Watkins is excited about the prospect of being part of your day, want to talk with you, and determine if you are a good fit for one another. I cannot say enough good things!

    I cannot express enough how amazing Watkins Flowers was for our wedding. I had had a really bad experience with another local florist and was so fortunate when I found Sallie. Her and I met with each other multiple times to create the vision I had for the ceremony and centerpieces, but within my budget. It wasn't an easy task since what I envisioned was very expensive, but Sallie guided me in the right direction and went over with me various flowers and options that were more cost effective, but no less beautiful. She completely understood my vision for my bouquet and bridesmaid bouquets and they were absolutely stunning! Not only that but my guests were talking about my ceremony flowers all night! The whole team at Watkins is wonderful and made the whole process feel special and unique. Would recommend 1000x times over.

    We worked with Thomas for our Son's wedding. He was always professional and knew exactly what was perfect! Watkins provided flowers for the wedding party, dinner tables, the buffet table, an archway, and the wedding cake.
    Watkins is our family go-to florist. Our daughter's wedding is next year and we can't wait to work with Ed, Sallie, and Thomas again! They make everything easily beautiful! I can't say enough good things about them!

    It was a pleasure to work with Watkins Flowers of Distinction. Diana was my direct contact and she was fabulous from our first meeting! Her ability to turn small details/ideas that we shared into a bigger, more beautiful design really amazed me! And she really knows her flowers!! I was also in contact with Sallie and she was equally great to work with. Our guests raved about the flowers at our event and we couldn't have asked for anything better when it came to seeing our vision come to life. Thank you, Watkins!!

    We love Ed and Sallie, not just because they're our friends- but also because their team heard our wants and that's what we got on our wedding day. Our flowers were exactly what we envisioned. Their team let us SEE flowers in our meeting and then delivered our vision! Flowers were brought to our venue in the jars/vases we gave them. The flowers were beautiful and lasted for over a week after the wedding- decorating my desk at work, keeping my wedding smile alive!

    Meeting Diana Mahoney was like catching up with an old friend. Her floral knowledge, creativity, sense of humor, and overall engagement for our big day was by far the best I've encountered while searching for a florist. Her team created all of the bridal party flowers. She worked with me to ease my fears and helped me stick to my budget and the end result was perfection. I can't thank you all enough! Nichole G.

    Sallie and Diana were wonderful to work with for our wedding flowers! All the flowers turned out perfect. Diana made sure to work with us to match our rustic chic wedding theme! They helped us rent rustic lanterns that we wanted for some of the table decorations and worked with specific wooden boxes that we had purchased for table decorations. I would HIGHLY suggest using Watkins as your wedding florist!

    Stunning florals for the entire wedding

    Watkins Flowers of Distinction put together beautiful flowers and greenery for our wedding. They were able to provide us exactly what we wanted and provided options at various price points so we could make tradeoffs and stay within budget. There was a hiccup and the mothers received a corsage rather than a nosegay bouquet, but we were refunded for that portion.

    Diana and Watkins Flowers of Distinction really brightened up our wedding and reception! The flowers came out absolutely beautiful, and they were a pleasure to work with. They really spent time with us to make sure they captured our vision. I highly recommend!
