There are no words to express how wonderful it was working with Veronica. She is kind, responsive and her vision is incredible. She made the entire process so easy and fun. The value you get for what you pay is incredible. I loved every single detail from the bridesmaids bouquets to the table settings. I cried when I saw how beautifully her team decorated our cake with florals.
Cannot recommend working with Ashland Addison enough. We feel so blessed!

She is beauty, she is the moment, she is Ashland and Addison.
I have only good things to say here. And WOW, did A&A deliver. Stunning flowers, candles and design. Meg worked with us and walked us through so many options until we found what was perfect. She was so flexible and patient as we figured out exactly what we wanted.
Ashland and Addison operated EXACTLY as a florist should. Behind the scenes, on top of things, professional, and timely. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish. And the outcome was perfect. 11/10!

Flowers were a big deal to me. I'm that bride that saw all these fancy arrangements and pictures and I had big ideas. But when reality set in about how much fresh flowers can cost, I was crushed. Then our planner introduced us to Ashland Addison. Wow. Just amazing. Meghan was so wonderful to work with and so creative. It's like she could see inside my head and came up the look I so wanted but within our budget. I don't feel like we compromised on a thing and when I walked into the venue it was like my dreams had come true. I had some special requests - like pink rose petals in the flower girl basket in memory of my Mom and incorporating a "something borrowed" broach into my bouquet. Meghan loved all the ideas and enthusiastically made them happen. Nothing was too big or small to ask of her. Overall it was just an amazing experience working with Ashland Addison and they made my flower dreams come true for my big day!

What a great vendor. We worked with Veronica who did such a great job. She was prompt, professional, and helpful. I gave her a limited vision and she created such beautiful tablescapes and candles around the venue. I am not a big floral person and I loved the florals. We loved all of her team’s hard work.

We cannot recommend Ashland Addison Florals highly enough! We found out about this family-owned small business through our wedding coordinator Jamie with JFOD and we were so thankful for her referral to this amazing team. The owner Justin and our event manager Veronica were so accommodating and so great to work with. Veronica was incredibly patient, kind and professional from our very first phone call and all of the phone calls + messages in between as it related to making our vision come to life as well as provided incredibly helpful tips. Veronica was there every step of the way including on the wedding day with her team and made sure the space was absolutely stunning. We received so many compliments on how beautifully decorated our chuppah, head table, and center pieces were. Ashland Addison executed our vision perfectly with superb attention to detail, and made our memories so special and gorgeous for our summer wedding day. We are so grateful to AshAdd Events and I can let the photos speak for themselves!!

If you want beautiful flowers and amazing arrangement of florals for your entire wedding then run, don’t walk, and hire Ashland Addison! We wanted a white wedding with nature green accents and they more than delivered. Veronica was amazing to work with and she brought our vision to life. A huge part of our wedding was the white photo looking arch we wanted for our ceremony. Veronica understood exactly what we wanted and made it magical. Thank you so much for making our day so special and memorable!

Ashland and Addison provided the florals for our wedding, and they exceeded all our expectations. Victoria was great to work with, provided a beautiful design with very little guidance from us, and was super responsive to feedback. The florals and décor at our wedding absolutely blew us away, and they were a huge talking point among our guests. Major thanks to Victoria and her team for making our day so beautiful!

We absolutely loved working with Ashland Addison for our wedding! Our florist Victoria could not have been more talented, communicative, helpful or kind! She understood our vision for the day immediately upon chatting with her on a video call and made me feel so relaxed knowing that she and her team were going to make our wedding vision come true! She went above and beyond for us, and the florals were better than any Pinterest vision board photos I’ve ever seen. We received so many compliments from our guests and family on the florals, too!! We’ve already recommended Ashland Addison to everyone we know getting married and we will continue to do so! I hope to work with them again for other events!! Thank you so much to Victoria for being a huge reason our vision came to life.

I used Ashland Addison for my florals and I was so impressed with how they brought my vision to life. I met with the team last October and I really had little to no knowledge about flowers. I was provided with an incredibly detailed proposal that contained examples of various flowers that would be used with the different arrangements. At my floral sample, I was blown away. The arrangements that Megan created looked IDENTICAL to my inspiration pictures that I sent her. She did a fabulous job, along with the team when they set up for the wedding. If you are looking for a florist- look no further because Ashland Addison does NOT disappoint!

Our original florist wasn’t able to provide a floral arch for our ceremony, so Ashland was recommended to me for their services. Ashland Addision provided our arch and aisle runner for our wedding ceremony and we couldn’t have been more pleased! They took inspiration pictures and made it into an absolute gorgeous reality! The process of booking with them and talking through what I was looking for was incredibly smooth. They were easy to get in contact with and quick to respond with any questions, changes, or add ons I needed to make. I would highly recommend working with them!

What can I say? Veronica and her team made our wedding dreams come true!!
Before finding Veronica, I met with five other florists who all told me what I needed versus listening to what I wanted. They all also laughed at my budget.
Veronica was the opposite! From our very first call, I knew Veronica would be doing the floral for our wedding. She listened, she embraced my vision as a fan of few flowers, she had things ready to show me when I asked for her input and she pushed me in a positive way to stay within my budget versus persuading me to add more and more along the way and exceeding my budget. In addition, she was always lovely, fun and spirited and was always super communicative!
The night of the wedding, we were more blown away than I thought possible. She brought our dreams to life and did so well beyond our expectations. She was there to make sure everything was flawless, and it brought me comfort to see her smiling face as pictures began.
If you’re looking for a floral team that is present, creative, and respects your vision no matter what it may be, Veronica and her team are who you should

Veronica made our wedding more gorgeous than we could have ever imagined. She was able to work very well with our tight budget. We sent her a color pallet and said "whatever the most affordable options are, that's what we'll go with" and wow did she deliver! The flowers were all stunning and perfect. When we went for the initial meeting, she had several arrangements prepared with different options and sizes. She had a few different greenery options to choose from as well. My mother is flower-obsessed and she was thrilled with all the arrangements. It was helpful that her crew had set up plenty of other weddings and events at the University Club (our reception venue). Her team was professional, quick, and clean. I can't recommend them enough. I've since used them for other events (showers, parties, etc.) They're familiar with most wedding venues in Chicago which is always helpful so they know where to go.

Working with Michelle at Ashland Addison for our wedding flowers was an amazing experience. Michelle was easy to talk to and professional throughout the entire process. She walked us through the flower options that would be in season for our wedding. And she did that three separate times, since we ended up changing our date three times due to the pandemic. The entire time, Michelle took into consideration all our thoughts and preferences related to the flowers and how we envisioned them displayed on our special day. She made our visions come to life and all the flowers looked absolutely incredible on our wedding day! Our experience working with Michelle was perfect and we highly recommend her and Ashland Addison to all couples looking for a reliable and reasonably priced wedding florist!

When I first met with Daniel from Ashland Addison Florist, he conveyed his vision to me on creating a very colorful ensemble of flowers and décor for my wedding. Rather than have black and white and or muted tones, I requested vibrant colors of reds, oranges, and yellows to make the day feel happy. Using my favorite flower—gerbera daisies—as the base, Daniel created floral designs for three rooms within the event space including a floral structure or chuppah to stand under for the ceremony, different focal points around the DJ, bars, and mirrors, as well as a long runner of flowers that spanned the entire length of our food stations. In addition, Daniel added a turquoise blue runner for the isle, found blue lounge furniture and gold-colored bookshelves to accent the space with candles, and strategically placed lights in various positions to add more warm color tones. However, what I will remember most is the beautiful bouquet of flowers he designed for me—a combination of orange, peach, red, pink, and yellow flowers that made me feel beautiful and magical on my wedding day.
During our walk through of the venue seven days before the wedding, my husband and I decided we wanted to add a bit more to the space. I immediately called Daniel, threw him this last-minute curveball, and asked if this was possible. Rather than shy away from challenge, Daniel tackled it head on and exceeded our expectations in every way.
Family and friends who attended the wedding came up to us and said, “I love flowers and yours were some of the most beautiful I have ever seen.” In addition, the lead representative from the venue and caterer said, “I have never seen this space look so beautiful!” I could not agree more and that is a sole testament to the work of Daniel and crew from Ashland Addison Florist.

I love Michelle.
As a Chicago's Top 10 Wedding Planner, I get exposure to all types of florists and designers. I really love Michelle's personality, her patience, her empathy. I think I switched the designs and concepts on her about 20 times. I pulled one of those, even though I'm a wedding planner. She was AMAZING. She was patient and she made it all happen.
Michelle is also someone that you would just purely want to be friends with :). Ashland Addison always delivers and their florals are fresh. They do well and we recommend them to all of our couples- of course I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a florist that is professional, flexible, and friendly.

Ashland-Addison was our florist - we had Veronica as our contact person. She spent a lot of time reviewing and revisiting exactly what we want for flower arrangements and with her suggestions, and setup at the Adler - it was a beautiful job. The look she put together complimented everything so well. She did a wonderful job.
We’d highly recommend them for florist needs.

We pivoted very late on our flowers from DIY to vendor-provided. Ashland Addison was able to turn around our centerpieces and bouquets in around a month and met all the requirements that we gave them. Delivery was prompt and accurate. Their a la carte offerings are great for couples who don't want to spend too much time or money on flowers but still want it to look professional.

Ashland Addison did a wonderful job on our wedding flowers. I wanted a colorful, springy feel, and the flowers were perfect! I can't tell you how many compliments I got. Everyone was expecting the traditional white, conservative bouquets, and the explosion of color really helped brighten up our reception room and added some beautiful framing to the ceremony.
Michelle was very easy to work with, and the team did a great job on the setup. Our bouquets arrived about a half hour early at our hotel, so we didn't have to worry about them for photos. Everyone at Ashland Addison helped make our wedding day as perfect as it could be.

MICHELLE B. is insanely talented and was so much fun to work with! She took an amorphous concept in my head (i.e., an ombre pastel watercolor look) and not only understood it, but expanded upon it and brought it to life.
She was patient and able to work with me on options that could make it more affordable. Moreover, when my planner realized the day of that, the candlestick holders I ordered and mistakenly thought had been delivered were missing, Michelle took care of the problem charge-free (Thank you!).
The culmination of what she composed was utterly phenomenal and gorgeous (so much so, that I have convinced myself that they started the #JoyfulExpression trend 😂)! The floral pieces at my wedding are still one of my favorite aspects of it. Overall, working with Michelle was a wonderful experience, and I couldn’t recommend her enough.

She was thorough with our vision and preferences and they were executed beautifully on our wedding day.

I had full confidence in how our flowers would look on our wedding day which gave us precious peace of mind.

Lori and the folks at Ashland Addison Floral were a dream team. My vision was perfectly captured after a quick conversion and a few photos I shared. The Fairlie looked like a romantic winter getaway, and glowed from the hundreds of candles throughout the venue. Lori has a beautiful suggestion to line the grand stairway with rope lights intertwined with Italian ruscus, and multiple sized candles down the stairs. She stayed within my budget, but also helped provided me with great ideas. My bouquet beautiful, full of white blooms of the season. I’m very happy with my choice to work with Ashland Addison - easy to work with, professional and helpful. Highly recommended!

Lori and the team at Ashland Addison were so incredible to work with! From our first few calls with Lori, she was so easy to work with and really took our vision and brought it to life! She was so responsive, flexible and helpful when we were so unsure of our plans due to COVID. We were blown away when we visited the studio for our mock up visit. Lori showed us all the different options for other centerpiece arrangements, candles, votives, vases etc. It was so helpful to visualize our special day with the endless options they provided. When it came to our actual wedding day, all the florals were exactly how we discussed and envisioned! We got so many compliments and would 100% recommend Lori and Ashland Addison to any future brides!!

There are honestly not enough good things we can say about our experience working with Ashland and Addison for our NYE wedding :) They were a dream. We worked with Michelle Brown, so she is, more specifically, the dream! I went in with a very specific vision for my wedding: I wanted minimal flowers and mostly lush greens to soften the exposed brick in our venue space. I wasn't quite sure how I'd feel working with Ashland and Addison. They've been in the city forever so I thought they might take an "old school" approach, which was not what I wanted, but I couldn't have been more wrong! Michelle was filling the gaps in my vision and sentences before I even realized it! She was communicative, conscientious, flexible, and offered really great insight to two people who had never planned a wedding before! She got my vision and executed it perfectly. The greens blew me away the day of the wedding. They looked better than I could have even hoped.

Veronica was our contact at Ashland Addison and went above my expectations to deliver amazing results. I was very impressed with Veronica when I arrived at our first meeting and she had completely transformed the meeting room to reflect the selections we had discussed. It made selecting the final arrangements seamless. My MIL also engaged Veronica to do florals for the rehearsal dinner, Veronica then took the initiative to bring the florals from the rehearsal dinner and repurpose them for the head table at the wedding! We had a modest floral budget, and you would not have known given her expertise. It was a pleasure working with her

I was one of the covid brides having to reschedule everything and waited too long to book a florist so I was panicking! I came across Ashland Addison and they ended up being beyond perfect. Lori and her team was able to fully understand what I wanted and executed beyond what I was thinking. My bridal bouquet was twice as big as I thought it would be. My guests were marveling over the center pieces and many were taken with guests as they left. Even the reception venue asked who I was using because they were so spectacular. Because we were so last minute, they were unable to deliver and set up but packaged everything so beautifully and easily that it made setup a breeze and transported flawlessly. Do yourself a favor and book with them and consider your flowers done and stunning.

Michelle, and Ashland Addison Floral were absolutely incredible to work with. Being a COVID Bride, I postponed 3 times and my experience was positive during it all. During all the chaos my vendors demonstrated true colors, some good, some bad, and working with Ashland Addison was fun, reassuring and stress free. Even during the stress of it all, I was always treated with respect and was reassured that no matter what changes were needed to adjust to the times, they would be able to accommodate. Michelle is a true genius. She stayed true to my budget and everything looked absolutely incredible. Many guests, other vendors and family members commented on how the flowers were some of the best they’d ever seen. Everything from start to the end was incredible. They packed up at the end of the evening, and even (for a small fee that was totally worth it,) delivered my flowers to me the next day so that I had them for my brunch. Could not recommend them more. Such a great experience!!

I would wholeheartedly recommend Ashland Addison for all of your wedding floral needs. They were amazing to work with and much more reasonably priced than competitors in the area. Michelle was a true pleasure to work with. I told her what florals I liked/didn't like, what kind of vibe were were going for with the wedding decorations and details, and she completely delivered on everything I could have wanted and more. We had so many compliments on how beautiful all of our flowers were. Couldn't recommend their services enough!

Ashland Addison was excellent to work with. The coordinator, Lori, was personable, professional and accessible. She sat down with us and showed us a sample of what we asked for and she absolutely nailed it. We got so many compliments on the bouquets - the flowers were so fresh and fragrant. I’m still so in love with my bridal bouquet. They organized everything in the event hall so beautifully. I absolutely recommend using this vendor, they did a wonderful job.

Veronica, one of their designers, transformed a university lunch room into a garden of delights with her magical flower arrangements. Flower arrangements were transported from the chapel to the reception. Both looked magnificent! Go with Ashland Addison!!!

I worked with Lori for the flowers for my wedding and had an amazing experience! My wedding was rescheduled twice due to the pandemic and she was so flexible allowing me to switch my date both times. The centerpieces and bridal party flowers all turned out beautiful and exactly as I had envisioned. Thank you so much Lori!

Thank you Veronica for making our wedding floral a dream! I knew that I wanted to go with a greenery and white kind of look, but I'm not familiar with the floral world and wasn't sure how to pull it off. I provided Veronica with some 'inspiration' pictures from Pinterest and boy did she deliver! Veronica has truly fantastic vision and creativity in her work. The guests at our 9/11/2021 wedding commented on the variety and elegance of our flowers at our wedding reception. Veronica decorated the room at the Chicago History Museum to really bring out the touches of elegance that the museum has. If you want something added or changed to your order, just send an email and she will make sure it happens!
Thank you Veronica and Ashland Addison event team for making our wedding day floral gorgeous as could be!

I had the most amazing experience with Ashland Addison from start to finish and would highly recommend their services! I loved every minute working with Michelle. Not only was she extremely friendly, professional, knowledgeable and responsive, but she immediately understood my vision even though I couldn't necessarily find the words to describe it. Michelle regularly communicated with me throughout the planning process and was extremely patient and adapted even when we had changes (the date, colors, etc...). She was truly the kind of wedding vendor you dream of having, as an anxious bride like myself can relax knowing and trusting that they are in great hands. The flowers, centerpieces and decorations exceeded my expectations--they were beyond perfect and exactly what I had pictured in my mind. Not only that, but the prices are so reasonable for the quality of florals and services. Michelle was somehow able to provide exactly what I dreamed of within my budget. I would not hesitate to recommend Ashland Addison to anyone planning a wedding or just looking for a wonderful florist!

During Covid, my original florist was quitting and our contracts were picked up by AshAdd with Michelle. Michelle absolutely nailed everything we talked about. She truly understood my vision and executed it beyond what I imagined!!!! Many of my guests commented on how beautiful the flowers were. It was truly everything and more!!! I highly recommend Michelle and this company! I’m still dreaming of my flowers and decor!!!

I am still dreaming about the flowers from my wedding! Michelle was amazing. She listened to what I was looking for when it came to our bouquets and center pieces. I truly appreciated her honest opinion on what flowers would look the best and which ones they would be able to get in season. One thing I discovered the most when it came to planning a wedding was having vendors with good customer service and communication. Michelle was quick to respond on emails and phone calls. She definitely made my wedding day less stressful. All of our flowers looked beautiful!

I can not say enough positive things about Michelle and her team at ASHADD! From our initial planning meeting (just as COVID was becoming a factor) to our zoom re-planning, to our third pivot to a gorgeous event at a family home, Michelle was patient, meticulous and creative. The team helped bring our vision to life with beautiful flowers, candles, votives and even a willow and white floral chuppah. I was obsessed with my bouquet and truly believed this team helped transform a simple home into a magical wedding venue. Thank you!!

The flowers were absolutely gorgeous and I’ve gotten so many compliments about how beautiful my bouquet was. Delivery was prompt and smooth. I decided to give 4 stars instead of 5 because communication with our florist was a bit spotty and inconsistent, and it got a little frustrating at times. Also the way payment is currently handled was a little uncomfortable to me - I paid over the phone and the person taking my payment didn’t seem to be able to obtain our agreement with the amounts that were due for the deposit, so I had to state myself how much to charge onto my card. I also never received a confirmation email that my payments were received, and I really like having clear, official record of things on hand and to show that the payment was attached to the balance on my contract. I did reach out and get a confirmation after asking about it later. Other than that, I thought they did a fabulous job of bringing our vision to life and they put together some beautiful floral arrangements for our wedding.

I can't believe what a beautiful job Ashland Addison Floral did for my zoom wedding, where visuals are everything. The floral displays they designed for my chuppah--in fact the framework for the chuppah itself were perfect. My wee little bouquet was perfect. I didn't want an over the top display and they provided an beautiful little grouping in just the right colors.
Even better is the customer service. I only had a week to set this all up and not only did they have no problem, they were smooth in installation and clean up and so so kind. Michelle has beautiful taste and her co-worker Roberto were great.
Can't recommend them more highly!

Ashland Addison was one of the first vendors we selected for our wedding. After talking to Justin and meeting with him in person, we were very confident in their experience and the beautiful flowers they offered (at very reasonable prices!) We had worked out our plans well in advance and then COVID hit. Michelle and Justin were so accommodating and helpful throughout every road block we encountered. First it was a change of date, then change in size, then finally a change of venue we were told about just 3 weeks before the big day! And through all of that, Michelle was there to help us adjust as needed and bring everything together. Her calmness and professionalism helped us stay calm. Every single adjustment was met with complete understanding and awesome suggestions/recommendations to help bring everything together. And boy did it! With Michelle's assistance we were able to have the day of our dreams! Everything came together so beautifully and we couldn't be happier. Thank you Michelle and Justin for playing such an important part in our big day; it is so appreciated!

We worked with Lori for our floral arrangements and she was a delight to work with. She listened to everything we expressed about our desires for colors, flower types, and decorations and delivered an absolutely beautiful setting for our wedding day. The bouqets looked amazing in photos, too! This was a great experience working with Ashland Addison Florist.

Ashland Addison did the florals for our wedding and they were absolutely amazing. We worked with Veronica, who was great every step of the way. We were not very knowledgable about florals going in and Veronica really helped us figure out what florals we liked and even helped us figure out what types of linens and so forth would look best with the florals we wanted. We had a flower wall which was absolutely gorgeous and everyone at the wedding told us it was like stepping into a fairytale when they entered the ballroom and saw everything. Ashland Addison was very easy to work with and made things very low stress which I really appreciated. Cannot say enough good things about them!

I can't say enough about how beautiful our flowers were! The bridal bouquet, the flower girl basket, the chair decor and centerpieces were PERFECT!
I had given them a vision and they not only ran with it, they matched exactly what I had imagined our wedding flowers would look like!
They were such a pleasure to work with and made the process so easy!
I highly recommend this wonderful team!

First off, Lori was fantastic to work with!! She listened to our dream vision and made it a stunning reality. Our guests, and even venue staff, loved the floral pieces so much. My husband insisted we bring the gigantic altar pieces with us on our mini-moon to Michigan and then back home to Texas. Those are some well traveled flowers and they still look great lol! We cannot say enough kind words about the staff at Ashland Addison and their amazing talents!

We worked with Justin and he was fantastic!! He was responsive to all my emails and revised my invoice countless times in order to make sure everything was perfect. The pricing Ashland Addison offered was by far the best in the market place and I was able to get gorgeous flowers within my budget! Also, they built me a custom chuppah to meet my vision and it exceeded all of my expectations. Could not suggest them more highly!

We worked with Lori for our floral and decor and she blew our expectations out of the water! I connected with her immediately and she understood everything We wanted. She also did an amazing mock up for us and helped with any questions we had! I 100% would spend every penny again for how beautiful our flowers and decor came besides even how amazing the floral was...and let me say my bouquet was BEYOND beautiful, their decor options were fantastic. The votives and the urns and all the vases were spectacular. They had so many options and was exactly what we wanted. Thank you thank you thank you!!

We worked with Justin on the flowers for our wedding and we could not be happier!! They were absolutely beautiful and we got compliments on them all night long. I don't know much about flowers and Justin was great in helping us pick out the perfect selections for our big day. We were able to visit their location a few weeks before our event and make a few updates too. Would absolutely recommend!

We loved working with Ashland Addison Floral. We had a fall wedding and the florals were perfectly elegant with a touch of fall. The whole process was really pleasant from our first discussion, to our free (yes, free!) centerpiece trial, to the wedding. Even when our floral designer left the company for a new opportunity, they handled everything professionally. Amy took over, met with us to make sure things were covered, and knocked it out of the park. The flowers and decor gave the whole event that extra wow factor and we could not be happier!

I have been using Ashland Addison Floral since I was a freshman in highschool for all my "fancy" dance events. For my biggest, fanciest, event I couldn't have picked a better vendor. Their location is a bit difficult to get to/from but the service was great, they handled the delivery flawlessly and my flowers looked amazing!

We worked with Mathew Lahey for our wedding flowers and could not have been happier! As someone who doesn't know the first thing about flowers, Mat was very helpful in explaining different options and styles, showing us pictures and vases when we met with him in person, and was incredibly patient as we made our decision and changed our minds a dozen times. After providing us a draft of the floral order, we made several revisions to cut out certain things and add others. About a month before the wedding, we went back to see a complimentary sample of our centerpiece, where we made a few last minute changes again. On the day of our wedding, all of the bouquets, boutonnieres, and centerpiece designs were absolutely gorgeous and perfectly matched our vision for the wedding decor. We even paid a little extra to be able to take home some of the centerpiece vases, they were that beautiful! Thank you to Mat and the floral team for the positive experience and great end result!

We reached out to Ashland Addison because they were a recommended vendor from our venue (Warwick Allerton - Chicago). I had no idea what I wanted for my wedding flowers, but I had plenty of pictures from Pinterest and magazines ready to go for our initial meeting. All I knew was what I wanted for centerpieces, so if I found a florist that could make my vision a reality we were good to go. We met with Amy and she was extremely attentive and talked us through every step of the floral process. She was excited about my centerpieces, which was a huge plus since that was what really mattered to me. After our first meeting, we didn't even consider meeting with another florist because we liked Amy so much and we were confident she would do a beautiful job with our flowers the day-of. On our wedding day, Amy exceeded all of my expectations. Our flowers turned out beautifully, and we couldn't have picked a better florist to work with!

Ashland Addison was AMAZING. They did all of the floral for our wedding on June 24, 2017. They were so attentive and listened to what it was I was looking for. The floral was fresh, beautiful and lasted through the heat. I was grateful they were able to drop off our bouquets and boutonnieres early to the hotel so we could have them fresh for pictures. The other floral for centerpieces and accents were absolutely STUNNING! I was in love. I appreciated their flexibility when it came to budget and attentiveness to my tons of emails. Thank you!
