    Beautiful wedding ceremony flowers

    Whistlestop provided the wedding flowers for our May 2025 ceremony. They worked with us to create something based on the inspiration we were looking at. The arrangements were beautiful. The pricing was reasonable. They were very professional and delivered the blooms on the day without a hitch

    Gorgeous Florals!

    Whistlestop Florist knocked it out of the park for our wedding! I had a lot of concerns when it came to choosing our flowers due to my allergies, and Kim was so understanding and knowledgeable. She walked us through which flowers would be safest AND created the most beautiful arrangements for our big day.

    Beautiful Arrangements!

    Kim was amazing to work with and created beautiful flower arrangements for our 2020 wedding and 2021 reception. She made our vision come to life for our unexpected backyard wedding ceremony, and one year later made beautiful centerpieces for our wedding reception. I loved that she incorporated some lighting into our arrangements to give them an extra spark and make things special. She was always very helpful in offering suggestions and being flexible as our plans changed. We highly recommend Kim and the entire team at Whistlestop to make things beautiful for your special day(s).

    Beautiful Flowers!!!

    Kim and her team made the most BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS I have ever seen for my wedding. I personally am not a huge fan of flowers nor do I know much about them, but Kim made all our bouquets and arbor decors absolutely stunning. Due to COVID, I was unable to meet with her in person so all the details I had in mind was done over phone or email based off of pictures. Kim executed exactly what I wanted and I am SO glad that I chose to work with her.

    When I first was looking for a florist, I reached out to several shops all of which either ghosted me, or never responded, or responded weeks later. Kim however has been extremely responsive since day one which I truly appreciate. Recommend her BIG TIME to make the most memorable flowers on your special day!

    We can not recommend Whistlestop Florist enough! Kim and her team executed our florals for our wedding perfectly! Everything I envisioned for our day, they made come to life. Our florals really brought everything together and matched everything perfectly. They held up well all day and did not wilt. I am so happy with how everything looked and we received many compliments on their beautiful work! Thank you!

    Such talent!

    Kim did a beautiful job with our flowers! I would highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding. She replied promptly to all of our questions and last minute additions and their pricing was more than fair. The bouquets and boutonnieres she created were exactly what I was picturing and were such a special part of our wedding day.

    We planned a small wedding in less than two months and reached out to Whistlestop Florist within four weeks of our wedding date. I don't recommend doing this to vendors! But they were wonderful - they fit us in for a consultation immediately. And the flowers were GORGEOUS!!! Big, beautiful, healthy bouquets that were exactly what we had asked for. PERFECTION.

    Kim at Whistlestop was absolutely amazing to work with, I can't say enough good things about her. She was very thorough in finding out the specific vibe and vision of what I wanted for my wedding, and went above and beyond to make the flowers and arrangements for my day absolutely perfect. Her work is excellent, the arrangements were gorgeous and she was very responsive and flexible to changes I had closer to the event and accommodated them easily. Great to work with, worth every penny and I would recommend her to anyone.

    Kim and her crew were great to work throughout my wedding planning. They are quick to accommodate your needs and what you are truly looking for. Kim took my look and ran with it. I totally trusted her to make it happen. All of the flowers were gorgeous. The centerpieces were perfect and my bridal bouquets were just stunning. Thank you Kim for helping make everything so beautiful.

    The flowers for my daughters wedding this past weekend were absolutely beautiful- from the bouquet and boutonnieres to the floral centerpieces! My daughter's request was for the flowers to be primarily white with roses and daisies and a touch of blush roses and that is exactly what she got! We supplied the submersible lights and Kim had them in the vases and easily accessible for the reception venue to turn them on after the ceremony. Absolutely Lovely!!

    Kim and the entire Whistlestop team were amazing in helping plan our wedding flowers. We did not live in state so Kim spoke with my mom and I over many phone calls and emails to get every detail right. To be honest, my mom cared about the bouquets and arrangements much more than I did in the planning process but once we swung by Whistlestop a few days before the wedding to see what they were working on, I was blown away. My bouquet was absolutely perfect and fit my style so well. We asked for an adjustment on the centerpieces which the staff had no problem making and they looked great on the day of the wedding. Delivery, set up, etc looked even better than I had dreamed in the chapel and our reception venue. If you want a florist who will listen to your ideas and make them into something better than you could have ever picked yourself, who is easily reachable, and who you can rely on to have everything look fantastic - look no further than Whistlestop.

    Whistlestop florist- especially Kim was so great to work with. My sister had used this florist for her wedding a year before mine and I knew I couldn’t look anywhere else because the flowers came out amazing. We met with Kim a little less than a year before our wedding day and I explained to her my vision- everything came out exactly how I pictured or even better. I cannot thank them enough, and highly reccomend Whistlestop!!

    I was so lost when it came to flowers for our wedding, but fortunately Kim was there to save the day! She took the time to go over all the details of our wedding and made our vision come to life! After describing our venue, colors, and "rustic elegance" theme, her creativity took place and she knew just what to do! Our bouquets were stunning, and the centerpieces were absolutely perfect for our venue. Thank you so much to Kim and the whole team at Whistlestop Florist!

    Kim was wonderful to work with! I didn't have much a vision for what I wanted my flowers to look like, but with a couple of inspiration photos Kim put together wonderful bouquets. My mom and I still have the peacock feathers and air plants from my bouquet decorating our homes.

    Whistlestop has to be the best florist in CNY. We came to them with a few vague color ideas and a few pinterest pictures and after consultation, we ended up with the perfect flowers. They were exactly what we wanted but couldn't adequately articulate. The whole process was easy, they are totally professional and their shop is a charming place to meet. We loved that the bride could go and preview the flowers the day before, for peace of mind. They helped us stay within our budget and it never felt like they were trying to sell us anything. In fact, we got the impression that their only priority was making sure that we could have the perfect flowers for our wedding. It worked, because the product we received was equal to or better than anything that we had looked at in the wide world of pinterest, instagram, etc. We let them run with a vision and their creativity and technique came through. Overall, a product of surpassing excellence at a fair price.

    Kim did an amazing job on my wedding flowers, especially my bouquet. Her knowledge and expertise helped us tremendously during the design process. I came to her with little more than color choices and ideas I had seen on Pinterest. She took those ideas and created the most beautiful set of flowers. The color and style were exactly what I had hoped for. I’m extremely grateful for her opening her schedule up for me when I gave her late notice. She is extremely talented and made our wedding day absolutely beautiful.

    Kim was AWESOME!!!!! Matched my vision PERFECTLY!! (and I'm verrrryyy picky, being a graphic designer) She met all my vision's expectations. My bouquet was GORGEOUS! Along with all my bridesmaid's bouquets. The centerpieces were flawless. I did a mix of tall centerpieces and table top greenery, HIGHLY recommend doing. She did a good mix of everything and made a nice flow to the whole venue. When there were any concerns with budget, she truthfully told me where I should cut and where to not. I couldn't be more happy with the services Kim and her team provided for my wedding day :D

    My husband and I were thrilled with Whistlestop! My sister in law and my best friend had both worked with this vendor, so I was confident going in that we would receive great service. When we met with Kim, though I had some ideas, I was unsure of what I wanted for our centerpieces and bouquets. We also had a very strict budget. Kim was sensitive to our budget, and after showing her our color scheme and my Pinterest Board, she immediately came up with the look for the bouquets and centerpieces, which I loved! She also helped us save money by giving helpful suggestions. They took care of delivering the centerpieces to the venue and the bouquets to my home on the day of the wedding. We did not have to worry or stress at all, knowing that everything was taken care of! The flowers were absolutely gorgeous. Whistlestop took care of adding unique touches to our flowers that went with our color scheme. We highly recommend the amazing services we received from Whistlestop!

    Whistletop provided the flower arrangements for my bridal shower and wedding. Everything was beautiful. Only a few photos of examples that I liked were emailed to Mary, and they created table arrangements and bouquets that I loved. Many compliments from guests at both events. I highly recommend this shop.

    I live in Baltimore, MD and was getting married in Skaneateles, NY so most of my consults with vendors were via email and phone. Kim and the team at Whistlestop were extremely responsive and helpful. I was a little nervous, given the distance and lack of in person meetings prior to the wedding, as to whether Kim would be able to create what I had described. Kim and the team exceeded my expectations. My flowers were absolutely gorgeous and the table arrangements were perfect. Gorgeous flowers and wonderful to work with.

    I cannot say enough good things about Kim and everyone at Whistlestop! Kim was so sweet and helped me stay within my floral budget, while getting the flowers I wanted (even after I changed the layout of the room!) She is honestly the most wonderful person and she creates such beautiful arrangements. She made our day look like a dream and I cannot thank her, and everyone else at Whistlestop, enough for what they did!!!!

    Do not hesitate when it comes to booking the Whistlestop for your wedding; you will NOT be disappointed! They made my dream wedding come true, and being an out of town bride, always were accommodating, quick to respond, and understood my vision. We rented some of their beautiful candelabras, and they also did an entire candy buffet for us, too - so amazing! We received so many compliments on not only our flowers, but the candy buffet, too. Everyone kept telling us how much it looked like something out of a magazine, and it really did. My bouquet was absolutely exquisite, and smelled heavenly, to boot! All of our centerpieces were stunning, fresh, and better than I could have imagined.

    I worked with Kim H., she was awesome! My mom and I ordered bouquets for myself, my girls and the grandmothers. I have no creativity and don't really know much about flowers, so I asked for a cheap in season flower that was big. Kim looked at a photo of my dress and asked for my colors and immediately got to work. I even had to change colors with the girls' bouquets closer to my wedding and she handled it flawlessly, she was very flexible. I got a great deal on everything and all of the flowers looked beautiful throughout the day of.

    Kim and her team were extremely professional and helpful right from the moment I walked into the shop to speak with them! They had albums of pictures showing examples, as well as the expertise to assist me with bringing my wedding vision together. I knew that it would be wonderful, but their work was absolutely INCREDIBLE and exceeded my expectations. The day before the wedding my fiancé, his buddy, and myself were asked to come in and view the bouquets/centerpieces and it literally brought happy tears to my eyes! Even the men were floored with how beautiful it looked. Thank you beyond words Kim and team, for adding perfect touches to all of our DIY work. It was a pleasure getting to work with you!

    The other 5-star reviews are not lying! Kim & the Whistlestop staff are AMAZING. I wanted bright, colorful pieces that were asymmetrical, had lots of greenery, and had that wildflower look - and with just a few photos to reference, they nailed my vision. For centerpieces, we did 1 bouquet vase and 4 bud vases on each table. I bought my own vases to save money, but Kim helped every step of the way to make sure everything would look good together. She helped me work to meet our budget, while still making sure everything looked full and gorgeous. Our bouquets were STUNNING. All the boutonnieres were gorgeous. The centerpieces. Everything got so many compliments.

    Kim at Whistlestop florist was fantastic! We decided to go with her because she got our vision right away. My husband and I were looking for a more natural and bohemian look-- she pulled of exactly that. We asked for some different flowers, herbs and plants. Kim did everything she could to find them and keep it within our budget. She elevated our vision, and made it better than we imagined! We highly recommend her!

    I met with Kim at Whistlestop on a recommendation from a friend when we were planning our wedding and she was the first (and last) florist we met with. I spoke with her about doing something a bit different --tablescaping--rather than traditional centerpieces and she so understood our vision that I didn't even need to meet with anyone else. The result was 25+ tables of flowers, succulents, mosses, herbs, rocks, and vines all in different silver and glass vessels and vases. Not one table was the same yet they all looked beautiful together. She was so thorough that even the venue's windowsills, our bar, our dessert and gift tables, and cheese tables all were adorned with gorgeous arrangements --big and small. My bouquet along with my bridemaids bouqets were so gorgeous, fragrant, and well-assembled. She uses nothing but the freshest, most quality flowers -- I actually put my bouqet in our refrigerator during our two week honeymoon (it felt like a sin to throw it away) and when we returned it still looked like it was freshly made. Kim had my mom and I come in for a preview both a few weeks before the wedding so she could demonstrate the tablescaping, and the day before the big day so I could preview my bouqet and both times we left saying how happy we were that she was doing the flowers. You can tell that she so cares for what she does and really gets joy out of delivering a bride with her exact wishes. Can't speak highly enough of her work!

    This florist actually came recommended from word of mouth from several vendors we interviewing.
    Right away I really loved working with Kim
    I just had an idea in mind and she really brought to life.
    I didn't have to worry to much and at the end the results was beyond perfections.

    WOW. When I went in to Whistestop I wasn't quite sure what I wanted but brought a couple images off Pinterest. Kim really helped to bring my thoughts to life. We had plain black table lanterns but weren't sure how to incorporate them as centerpieces. Kim suggested taking the glass out, having the door open with flowers going through and out of the lantern. I wasn't quite sure what to expect but trusted her creativity. I was amazed when I walked into our reception room and saw all the tables. The centerpieces along with bouquets were absolutely stunning. The flowers all held up beautifully throughout the evening and still look wonderful a few days later. When I mentioned that Whistelstop was doing my flowers to other vendors, Kim was highly praised. Highly recommended!

    Kim was one of the easiest-to-work-with vendors that we used for our wedding. She always responded immediately and did not get annoyed when I kept changing the order! Her suggestions were spot-on and the flowers turned out BEAUTIFULLY. She was even able to make special boutonnieres for us. Thank you so much Kim!!!

    Kim & the staff at Whistlestop went above and beyond to make our ballroom look spectacular! I had a variety of different centerpieces and requests and Kim worked so hard to make sure my look was captured in every way imaginable! I interviewed several florists, including grocery stores and the value I received was far beyond any of the other vendors I met with. Not only that, the personal attention, design consultation, and creativity that I received were above and beyond! In my opinion, Whistlestop Florists should be your first and only stop! No one compares! Thrilled beyond belief and have pictures to prove it!

    Kim was truly amazing! She completely understood my vision and was very responsive and accommodating to small changes we made along the way. I got so many compliments from our reception venue staff on how beautiful the flowers were! Keep in mind they do weddings every weekend. The arrangements at the church were absolutely perfect. Kim also allows a preview the day before the wedding which will help nervous brides sleep well!! All around fantastic vendor. Very creative and fun to work with. Thanks for everything Kim!

    I very recently got married and worked with Whistlestop for my wedding flowers-working with Kim over the past year was wonderful-not only was she flexible with her time in order to meet me with my crazy hours, she also took the time and patience to work with my mother whom helped to plan the wedding long distance. I knew that the flowers would be gorgeous as I had seen Kim's work in photos and her shop is just beautiful but I was not prepared for what I saw when I finally waked into the reception room for our "first look" before our guests arrived-simply breathtaking. Her artistic ability, creative arrangements and attention detail all came together to make the reception room magical. The bridesmaid's flowers and my bouquet were simply stunning-when they were delivered to us I was amazed at the vibrancy of the flowers and colors and uniqueness of the arrangement. They were everything I had pictured in my head for this special day. I knew it would be beautiful but I was truly unprepared for how magical Kim and her fabulous team made it-just amazing! It was a gorgeous evening-thank you to Kim and her team!! We can't wait to work with you again!

    Kim at whistlestop is amazing!!!! I asked my vendors who the best florist was and they recommended Kim from Whistlestop. My husband and I met with her for a consultation and she spent over and hour and a half with us! She asked us every detail of how we envisioned our wedding. After meeting with her I knew why everyone said she was the best! I had a picture in mind of how I wanted my wedding to look and she made it come true. Kim is so talented and I am so happy we choose her!!!

    Whistlestop Florist is THE best florist in Syracuse for weddings. When you go for your first appointment it is apparent that they have a lot of experience in this area. Kim is absolutely wonderful to work with and her floral arrangements are breathtaking. My husband and I were blown away by how beautiful our flowers were. She really listened to what we wanted and incorporated her own flair into the designs. You can't go wrong with booking Whistlestop to be your wedding florist. It would be a mistake not to.

    Whistlestop Florists provided their services for my son's wedding. They were incredibley flexible, attentive, and made the entire wedding process stress-free. All of our guests mentioned the beautiful flowers for the ceremony, reception and for the bridal party. I only wish Whistlestop Florist was located in Maryland to continue future business! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Kim and staff at Whistlestop Florist were absolutely wonderful. My daughter the bride had a vision of what she wanted and Kim took that vision and made it even better. The centerpieces, corsages, boutinierres, bouquets and other floral accents were amazing. Kim even arranged for the Chuppa to be delivered to the venue and set that up with beautiful flowers. Then Kim and an assistant returned to our venue at midnight when the party was over and transported the flowers to where our farewell brunch was to be held the next day so we'd have the centerpieces for that to continue the magic. They went above and beyond to make my daughter's wedding day special.

    I worked with Kim at Whistlestop Florist. When I met with her I wanted a very specific pink for my flowers. She knew what I wanted right away and provided me with samples of fresh flowers they had on hand. I was indecisive about everything else I wanted but Kim helped lead me in the right direction. When I called her several times after meeting with questions and changed my mind back and forth she was very patient and helpful. About a week prior to the event I gave her crystals and pearls to string on my centerpieces and I was very pleased that she was happy to do this for us. When my flowers arrived they were everything I wanted and more, they were really perfect. She even came to the venue after the reception to pick up her vases so there was no post wedding work for us to worry about. I highly recommend this vendor! :)

    I got several recommendations for Whistlestop from other vendors, and they lived up to my expectation. I worked with Kim at Whistlestop, and she is amazing! I know very little about flowers, so I gave her a vague description of what I wanted (natural, earthy...that's about it) and she totally delivered. You know how you go to some weddings, and you hardly even notice the centerpieces unless someone points them out? Not at my wedding- they were a huge statement piece in the decor. I didn't have time to preview the flowers before the wedding, so the first time I saw them was when I walked into my venue, and I was so impressed. Everyone was talking about the gorgeous centerpieces all night. Kim is truly an artist, and on top of that she's super sweet and easy to work with. The types of flowers I used were cheaper then most, but I was still surprised at how reasonable the prices were.

    Kim was so wonderful! I didn't really know what I wanted, but she made some awesome suggestions that I'm so glad I went with. She worked within my budget and all of the arrangements were gorgeous (and very generously sized). Our order included my bouquet, 5 bridesmaids bouquets, 9 boutonnieres, 4 corsages, 16 centerpieces, flower girl crown and arrangement for her basket, and some arrangements for the pews (I don't remember the number). The flowers were gorgeous and I felt that the prices were very reasonable for what we got. One of my favorite touches was the crown we had made for our flower girl, it was so adorable! I would definitely recommend Whistlestop Florist!

    Kim was wonderful! She did a great job with all of our flowers. We had very specific ideas for flowers and she did a great job making them look exactly as we asked. Everyone at the wedding could not stop talking about how beautiful the flowers were.

    Kim and her team at Whistlestop did a fantastic job with my wedding. The flowers were more beautiful than I could have imagined. In our first consultation, Kim listened to all of my ideas and then helped guide me in the right direction to what would work and what would not work. She then took my vision to the next level to create absolutely beautiful arrangements that fit perfectly in my venue.

    Five stars is not enough for Kim and her crew! Kim was a dream to work with, I told her what colors and textures I was looking for and she created the most beautiful wedding I've ever seen. Everything I described to her was better than I imagined it could be. She understood the vision we had and added extra details to make everything beautiful.

    Everywhere I turned there were small details, a few groupings of flowers here, a small vase with a colorful rose there. Every little detail was complete. While I knew generally what colors I wanted, I didn't know a lot about types of flowers or arrangements. Kim had great ideas and crafted beautiful centerpieces and bouquets from our requests. She was knowledgeable and never tried to force anything on us that we didn't like. I was worried that we did not have enough money budgeted for flowers to get everything we wanted but Kim worked within our budget to find flowers and details that were beautiful and within our price point.

    We were in great hands and I trusted Kim to make every detail shine. She went above and beyond, working tirelessly to set up our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception flowers and centerpieces so that everything would be perfect when guests arrived.

    I'd highly recommend Kim for any event, the team at Whistlestop is professional, courteous, and respectful of our budget and ideas. They made our wedding day beautiful!

    Our flowers were more than I ever could have imagined! Kim did an amazing job with everything. I was very particular about what I wanted as I wanted very organic, non traditional flowers and what Kim created was exactly what I wanted and more! I could not have asked for anything more and I would recommend Whistlestop to not only brides but to everyone looking for flowers!

    There are no words to describe how happy we were with our flowers. We had a vision and Whistlestop Florist understood it and created something that exceded all of our ideas. They were total professionals and answered all of our questions. We received a large number of compliments from guests saying that the flowers were some of the most amazing displays they had ever seen. They really outdid themselves for our wedding and I know they will do the same for yours.

    Our flowers were one of the best parts of our day. They were absolutely beautiful. Throughout the entire process, Kim was so helpful and even met with me twice after I changed my mind. I had so many compliments on how gorgeous the room looked and the way she set up each table was like a work of art. Our flowers lasted for an entire week after the reception! Hands down, the best florist in Syracuse.

    I cannot express how amazing Kim and the team at Whistlestop is. I met with a few vendors before deciding to move forward with WS, and that is mostly because when I showed Kim my vision she just "got it!" She was so fun to work with and bounce ideas off it, and in the end, she executed my vision perfectly. Aside from marrying the love of my life, the flowers were one of my favorite parts of the day, especially the bouquets. Go with whistlestop and Kim - you will be so glad you did!

    Working with Whistlestop was an absolutely wonderful experience! Kim was very patient with me as we were first choosing flowers and she understood exactly what I envisioned, even when I could not articulate it. She brought my vision to life... and then some! The flower arrangements and decor was stunning and one of my favorite parts of the day!

    Kim and the staff at Whistlestop were top notch. The quality of the flowers and the arrangements were breathtaking. We lived 4 hours away during the planning process, but Kim made every effort to set up meetings when we were in town, even if it meant starting her day early.

    There was no detail overlooked, Kim made sure that we had flowers for everything / everyone that we wanted - and we even came in UNDER budget.

    Kim at the Whistlestop made everything very easy for us. I knew exactly what I wanted and had a very specific budget. She had recommendations that got me what I wanted on my budget. I was surprised by how nice the flowers looked when they were delivered - they were more beautiful than I expected and look amazing in our photographs. She was responsive to our emails. She also let me make a last minute addition to what we had originally planned. I couldn't have been happier.

    Whistlestop is the best in Syracuse! Nobody's work compares to their stuff!!!!! Everybody there is very helpful and very nice!!!!! They are there for you whenever you need them! Kim was amazing from the day we met her! She was very helpful in showing us her work and thorough everything!!!! Kim was nothing but a professional, generally always available, and if she wasn't there that second she would call you back as soon as her appointment was done. She always emailed me with new ideas and was helpful with all aspects of our day. She did everything she could to help us. Their work is nothing you have ever seen! It belongs on a cover of a magazine! I couldn't wait until our wedding to see everything!

    I will never forget the day before my wedding when I walked in to see the flowers she had our centerpiece on the table with our church pew arrangement tied to the chair. I was speechless and tears came to my face. Then came my bouquet and everything else to follow, and everything was absolutely beautiful!!!!! When my husband and I walked into the reception place the first thing we saw was our place card table and it was stunning! When we saw the room we both looked at each other in awe! Kim and everyone at Whistlestop went above and beyond what they should have to make our day special!!!!! My husband and I can't thank you enough for a fairy tale ending!!!!!! Whistlestop is the place to go if you want Professionalism, Quality, Uniqueness, and Elegant Flowers!!!!! Most important you will not find anyone who will be there for you more than Kim and every person that works at Whistlestop! Thank you again!!!!!!

    One of the most wonderful things I can say about working with Kim and all those at The Whistlestop Florist is that they made me feel as though I was their most important client. I am sure other customers of theirs would say the same! Kim not only helped my dreams for my flowers become a reality, but she did it all within my budget! Amazing!

    Working with Kim at the whistlestop for the flowers for our wedding was a pleasure. She was helpful, informed and cared about us and our day. Kim wanted to make it special and she was willing to meet with us as much as we needed to to be comfortable. I went and looked at one of my centerpieces the day before the wedding and burst into tears when I saw it. Kim had it placed on the table waiting to show me and it was beautiful. I cannot say enough about Kim and the whistlestop!

    My family has been a life long fan of Whistlestop Florist. We have been through alot w/ this vendor and they were always there for us in good times and in bad. In this particular event, my wedding, I only had one place in mind when it came to flowers. Whistlestop. Everyone there was professional and they had a very nice presentation to show us on previous wedding arrangements that have been done w/ a large selection of flower colors / styles / and ribbon choices. I knew right away this was the vendor for us. They also recommended our wedding photographer and provided us photos of the cake we ended up choosing as well. On the day of the wedding they sent their team in to set up for us. The flowers were GORGEOUS and EXACTLY WHAT WE WANTED. They had the perfect color matches / ideas to go w/ the bridesmaid dresses and all of the room decor was just perfect. Alot of my guests raved about the way the flowers added to the day. Thank you Whistlestop, you are the best!

    I cannot tell you how happy I was with my flowers. I went in to see them the Friday before wedding and I cried…they could not have been more perfect. The bouquets, wrapping, centerpieces, cake, everything was just amazing and I got so many compliments on the flowers/colors, etc. Kim was so easy to deal with too. I must have called her 30 times to make sure she understood what I wanted and she was so patient with me even the week before the wedding when I was neurotic. I would highly recommend!!!!!

    Our flowers were beautiful! The price was a little higher compared to others we had looked at but she was so easy to work with and the flowers were exactly what I had envisioned. And also did a beautiful piece for our mantle at the reception. I would definitely recommend using whistlestop for a wedding

    Kim was an absolute pleasure to work with. After chatting, I sent her inspiration photos and a budget. She told me how to adjust the arrangements I was eyeballing to maintain the same look and feel, but stretch my budget further.

    As an out-of-town bride, I was most nervous about booking a florist remotely. Kim was flexible, responsive, and--of course--created beautiful, beautiful arrangements. She also helped talk me through various options--I was not the most decisive or vision oriented bride and Kim helped me fill in all the gaps in my knowledge without ever pressuring me for an upsell or making me feel uncomfortable in any way.

    She came highly recommended by a friend/bride, and I am so happy we booked Kim and the Whistlestop team!

    I was so happy with Whistlestop Florist for our June 27th wedding! The staff was very friendly and easy to work with. I loved that the day before my wedding I was able to stop by and see all the flowers... it really did make a difference because on the day of my wedding I was so busy with everything else that I am appreciative I got to take a moment to see the flowers up close. The quality was great. I was in love with my hot pink hydrangeas!! The centerpieces were perfect and overflowing with flowers. It was also nice that they dropped off the flowers at my parent's house, the church and the reception. I didn't have to worry about a thing!

    Kim did an amazing job of understanding exactly what I wanted. My bouquet exceeded my expectations. Kim took the time to ask about all the details of our wedding to get a complete picture and offered some great suggestions for flowers. The Sahara roses she suggested were stunning!! And she stayed within our budget and was very patient when we needed to cut back some. I highly recommend Whistlestop- you won't be disappointed!!

    Absolutely beautiful flowers--and so wonderful to work with! With minimal direction, Kim was able to capture exactly what we wanted for our wedding day, and we couldn't have been happier with how our flowers turned out! We tweaked our order several times in the months before the wedding, and she was so patient and responsive and just joy to work with!

    Kim is great to work with and really does what you want. She is not pushy and has everything looking perfect the day of the wedding. I purchased the bare minimum and still paid near 1500. I knew right away this was the vendor for us. They also recommended our wedding photographer and provided us photos of the cake we ended up choosing as well. It belongs on a cover of a magazine! I couldn't wait until our wedding to see everything!

    Made my ideas a reality!

    A few people could not imagine my color scheme, but when I started talking with Kim she instantly knew what I was talking about. I had an idea for my flowers and my girls flowers, but I was not exactly sure what I wanted for my tables. Once Kim knew the colors and my flower preferences she had the perfect idea which I loved. After talking with the baker, I realized that I wanted flowers on my cake for topper and decoration and I got a response right away that they would be able to accomodate my change. I saw the flowers the day before and was blown away. On the day of the wedding, the flowers were where they needed to be and perfect.

    We used Whistlestop for our wedding flowers, and they came out perfect. The bridal bouquet was beautiful and even better than what I had envisioned. Originally we were not going to have floral centerpieces due to cost, but after speaking with Kim, the prices were so affordable that I was able to go for it! I got exactly what I wanted and for a fabulous price. Kim did a great job with everything and I am so happy we found them!
