Please drop what you're doing and book Ayla NOW as your wedding florist. Her packages come at a VERY competitive and affordable price point (the best I've seen in the St. Louis area for the quality), and she was a sweetheart and an absolute pleasure to work it. I seriously canNOT recommend her enough!

I really liked Ayla and the florals were gorgeous. There were a couple of details that weren’t correct, such as I had asked for a cascading bouquet, but received a normal bouquet. And we were short 2 boutonnières. Her proposal matches what she gave me, but we had discussed a different number. It was my fault for not catching the mistake on the proposal. Just make sure you double check the small details, and everything will turn out perfect.

Ayla
Owner
I started my journey when I left the corporate world to pursue my dream of owning a floral studio. So in the past three years, I purchased an old flower shop, re-branded and moved to a new location. With exceptionally talented designers, we have grown into a cutting edge studio thriving on the art of floral design.
BTW, I am an aspiring flower farmer. I am also married to my soulmate, a proud mom of three amazing daughters, 2 dogs, 3 cats & a growing number of chickens.

When planning our wedding at Union Station, we wanted our day to feel romantic and timeless with an essence of an upscale party. Both our wedding ceremony and reception were to be ...
held in Grand Hall and we wanted to be able to get as much use as possible from our florals. Ayla’s Floral Studio took our vision of ivory roses, brass candles, pearls, and greenery and made it even better in reality. The designs were better than I had dreamed up and every abstract thought that I had came together so perfectly in reality with the creative design and expert knowledge that the wonderful ladies at Ayla’s Floral Studio have. The best part was that nearly all of the designs were able to be utilized both during the ceremony and the reception. Our ceremony arbor was repurposed as the backdrop for our photo booth, large table centerpieces were used at the head of the aisle during the ceremony, and bridesmaids bouquets were used as part of the centerpiece for the head table during dinner. We also had a large scale waterfall of roses for our sweetheart table which was used during our ceremony as well. Everything was meticulously designed to make sure we got to enjoy the beautiful designs as much as possible as well as getting the most bang for our buck. Thank you so much for making our wedding day floral dreams a true reality!
With love and gratitude,
Henry and Brooklynn Weinreich

fantastic to work with. She is very responsive, professional, and very helpful. She provided great suggestions and guidance whenever I needed it. I booked her team for set up of my decorations, outside of just the florals, and they made all my visions come to life! They were able to handle all my DIY projects exactly how I requested. I have had an abundance of compliments from guests on how beautiful the reception was, and that’s all thanks to Ayla and her team!

We had an amazing experience working with Ayla and her team. Ayla herself was very sweet and made our journey planning our wedding delightful which I can't thank her enough. I'd describe it as a close family member or even motherly figure helping you navigate what could have been a stressful experience. I had full trust and faith the whole time and in the end we were right!

owers, so I was a bit stressed because I knew time was running short. Ayla calmly assured me that there was still time to put together a bridal bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages. Next, she was extremely attentive to my vision for the bouquets– I was completely stunned and speechless when I saw them– they were almost an EXACT replica of my inspiration photos, down to the blue thistles, roses, and amaranthus 🤯. I received so many compliments on them, and they just elevated all of our pictures. Finally, the flowers were delivered on time, the price was comparable to other florists around the St. Louis area, and Ayla was super easy to work with. One of the main reasons I originally chose Ayla was for how colorful and natural her arrangements looked, and she completely exceeded my expectations :)

ers they would be using, and discussed some alternatives in case they were unavailable by the time my wedding came. We ended up using a different flower type, and I couldn't even tell! My bouquet was still perfect :)
We did have an issue where we didn't get enough flowers for a wedding arch we were building. We were supposed to have an extra 3 feet that never got to our reception. But the arch still looked great without the missing piece.
I dried out some of the flowers to save forever. They are beautiful! I wasn't sure what my vision was, and Ayla helped me get a beautiful arrange of flowers :)

ich she said if she couldn't get she would get artificial red ones, or color them herself. We ended up with yellow sunflowers with a little hint of red on them. There was no agreement to have yellow at all and there was no communication that this is what she was going to have to do to see if I was ok with it. She did offer to drive back out to us after they were delivered to color them however we did decline due to our time restraint and being worried they would not be up to par.
Response from Ayla's Floral Studio
We regret that the client was not happy with the substitution. We had requested the red he...
irloom sunflowers but due to the high levels of floral shortage, the farm sent us sunflowers called Red Sun which is yellow tipped red sunflower.
Comparing the artificial options which were available and the fresh sunflowers we had received, the fresh was a better option as the silk ted sunflowers looked extremely fake.
We did off offer to to color shift the sunflowers. These are extremely trying times for the floral industry and we do the very best on the substitutions.
Regardless of the situation, each bride is extremely important to us and we regret that we were unable to meet your expectations.

Dottie and Bev at Richter's Florist are possibly two of the sweetest ladies I have ever met. I met with them on my own about a year before my wedding -- I had really no idea what ...
I wanted (or needed) to make my wedding a success. Dottie sat down with me, asked me questions, showed me pictures... taking me by the hand and walking me through the entire process. Bev delivered everything on time and set everything up according to our plans. At the end of every in person meeting Dottie/Bev gave me a complimentary flower and reminded me that they would provide me with beautiful flowers and that I would be a beautiful bride. In the end, I had the most beautiful bouquets, corsages, boutineers, and chuppah that I could have ever wanted. I wish I could post photos so that you all could see. But since I can't, go to their shop and meet them in person. I wouldn't change my florist for the world!
