Honestly there are no words to express how AMAZING Beth’s Florist was during the entire planing process but I will try. From the first message on the knot to the end result they were easy to work with, very professional and the end result was b...
reath taking. Sue and Gina were very responsive to every email sent and every phone message left. They took my vision and exceeded my expectations with the end result. The month of planning was 100% worth it and I recommend everyone adds this to their flower contract. They were at the venue to make sure all vendors were there and aided in picture taking and really made myself and the groom feel so special. I can’t say enough about Sue, Gina and their entire team. I promise if you decide to go with Beth’s you will not be sorry. Thank you for everything and helping to make our special day absolutely perfect.

Shayne, Thank you so much for your sweet words! It was a pleasure to work with you as a planning bride and your wedding was beautiful!! Best wishes for a happy life!! Gina
All I can say is wow! I wanted simplicity with greenery. The only other thing I wanted was blue thistles for a nod to my Scottish heritage. They made sure to avoid having eucalyptus near a member of the wedding party because of an allergy. The ...
price was right and they worked with me on vision. I came in for my consultation and quote with pictures of what I liked. They had me taken care of pretty quickly. I also decided to go with them for their "Month of Planning" option through New Orleans Wedding Planners. This service allowed me to enjoy my wedding day without worrying about the little stuff. I know I would have been so much more stressed if I hadn't used Beth's Flowers and New Orleans Wedding Planners. Thank you, Sue and Gina! Y'all made our special day that much more special because we were able to enjoy it fully.
The flowers were GORGEOUS for our wedding - we got so many compliments on our ceremony arch, the greenery they put on chandeliers throughout the venue, and the bouquets! They also handled our day of wedding coordination for the event. Sue and G...
ina handled many setbacks/last minutes changes and issues with so much ease - we had no idea of behind the scene challenges that happened because they took care of everything! They even pinned my dad's pants that did not fit him at all :D (so hilarious, definitely went beyond their duties there). They also last-minute found us 2 pedi cabs for our family members who wanted to partake in the second line after the ceremony. We totally missed this piece and they made it happen with less than 24 hours!! They were great!
The team here was amazing. We were originally scheduled for 2020, and they rescheduled with no problems. Made slight adjustments to my contract after. They always were very responsive to emails and the final result was better than anything I co...
uld have ever imagined! Great reasonable pricing as well.

I can't say enough about Beth's Flowers and especially Sue. She was beyond helpful in not only the floral selection and arrangements but also planning aspects. If you have the opportunity to hire her as your wedding planner I would 100% do it. ...
She is so knowledgeable and realistic on what is needed and what is not. We used Beths Flower's for both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding, and they could not have been more beautiful!

ne call! I didn’t see my flowers till the day of my wedding because I was confident they would be great. They took my breath away! The bouquets were beautiful and so unique and exactly what I was wanting. one of my main requests were 2 dramatic white ostrich feather and hydrangea arrangements which we used for the ceremony and on tables for the reception. They were Totally stunning! The girls at Beths flowers really made my wedding vision come to life perfectly!

Sue and Gina were phenomenal! I had absolutely no worries on the day of the wedding. After months of contemplating what were gonna do for a wedding considering the ever changing Covid restrictions, we decided to have a small elopement style/ d...
estination wedding in New Orleans and contacted Sue. She made all our wedding dreams come true with 4 months of planning! She always told it like it is, really worked with us on getting everything we wanted for our budget, she helped me find an amazing photographer, the perfect Venue, the DJ, and not to mention Beths flowers went above and beyond with my actual flowers. All my friends and family say our wedding was the most fun and spectacular wedding they have ever been to! They loved the beautiful courtyard in Broussards and finishing the night with an eventful second line parade. Thank you guys for a Beautiful night!

Tanya, We loved working with you! Thankyou so much for the great review! It was our pleasure to make your wedding day dreams come true! Best wishes for a happy life!
I had heard about Beth's Flowers through a close friend who had used them as her wedding florist, but it wasn't until a fateful day when I was starting to plan my own wedding, that I met Sue and the Beth's Flowers team at a 2019 Bridal Expo. S...
ue was doing a flower demonstration but luckily I was escorted to her side where I had the opportunity to speak to her. On this day, our journey began. Within just a few minutes of speaking, she had honed in on my concerns and stresses with securing a venue I truly wanted. At that very moment, she pulled out her phone, placed a call and secured the venue for our 9/2020 wedding date. It was at that same moment I had realized that Sue and her team would do whatever they could do to make our special day the best it could be. We made a follow up appointment for me to attend a 'Build Your Own Bouquet" workshop where it gave me the reassurance to secure her as our florist AND our wedding planner.
The whole team guided us through an unprecedented year with the COVID-19 pandemic and supported us, subsequently, through a change in wedding dates and a change in wedding venues a month before the new date in 2/2021 due to continued restrictions.
A couple's journey is already stressful enough when planning such a special day, but we were glad to have the support of the Beth's Flowers Team in all the days leading up to our wedding and their efforts on the day itself as well. The team did not miss a moment to ensure everything ran smoothly.

Thank you for such an awesome review. We love working with brides that are as sweet as you. Hope you have a wonderful married life!
Working with Gina at Beth’s has been astounding. For being a bride-to-be who didn’t grow up in Louisiana, she has an incredible amount of experience and knowledge as well as being able to share feedback about being a “New Orleans Bride” in the ...

The most gorgeous wedding flowers! I found Beth's Flowers through my planner Sue Rudiger. Her family owns the floral shop and it was an easy decision to use both for my wedding day. Sue is an incredible wedding planner and her staff makes beaut...
iful floral arrangements. Sue went above and beyond on our wedding day. She listened to my needs, understood my budget, and made all my floral dreams come true! When I unexpectedly lost my grandmother 4 months before the wedding, Sue helped me decide how to honor her on our wedding day. I requested a single gardenia in my bouquet as it was her favorite flower. Well, I got that gardenia plus many, many more throughout arrangements at the venue! I cried when I saw our beautiful cake topped with gardenias. I highly recommend booking Sue as your wedding planner and using her business Beth's Flower for your florals. You will not regret it!

Nicole,
Thank you so much for trusting us with your flowers! You were a beautiful bride!! We wish you a lifetime of happiness!
Sue and the team at Beth's Flowers are AMAZING!!! They pulled of the most beautiful wedding for my husband and I (in the middle of Covid). Due to the circumstances, we were forced to make changes along the way but our wedding day truly exceeded...
our wildest expectations. We can't thank them (or recommend them) enough!
We ordered a bride, bridesmaids, throw, and mother/mother-in-law bouquets. We ordered boutonnières and corsages. For the ceremony site, we ordered a 4ft swag for the arch with greenery flowing down the posts and two large centerpieces for vases...
to use at the ceremony site and the reserved tables at the reception. For the reception, we ordered scattered greenery for the tables and greenery to be tied around the high boy tables. We also ordered cake topper flowers with cascading flowers to flow down the cake. The flowers consisted of a variety of roses, babys breath, lots of different types of greenery, magnolias, and a few other different types of flowers. They used silk magnolias since they wilt quickly when not in water. I received sooooo many compliments on the flowers. Everything was so natural-looking and beautiful. It was exactly what I envisioned. And a plus is that we got to keep the silk magnolias to put around our house as a reminder of our special day!
Sue and Gina were so great! After many last minute changes and switching venue locations they really made so effortless. She has awesome communication and really helped me feel better after having to cancel my wedding. We had to revise my whole...
floor plan and had the wedding in less than 2 weeks. She had everything prepared and ready to go without any issues. They were also very considerate of my budget. Overall great experience and made my wedding look magical!

Autumn,
Thank you so much! It was our pleasure to work with you on your special day! You were a stunning bride!
Planning a wedding is a daunting task, but Sue with Beth's Flowers made it so easy when it came to floral and decor. Sue just so happened to be recommended to me by a close friend who happened to use Beth's Flowers for her flowers! I am so gla...
d that I didn't look any further. She really makes you feel like they're here to make your dream come true. Sue went above and beyond to make sure that I had the wedding of my dreams. Everyone commented how amazing the venue looked with all the lighting, draping, and flowers! Through it all, she was highly responsive, flexible, and professional. Of all the things I worried about for my wedding day, I knew that floral and decor was going to be no problem at all. That sense of ease and confidence in your vendor is something money can't buy! With that said, Sue was so mindful of our budget. Where she could help us by bundling lighting/draping so that we didn't have to break the bank, she did! If she could figure out a way to create my dream wedding and make it affordable at the same time, she did! It's amazing how they can really take your vision and bring it to life (and make it better than you imagined!) From the ceremony flower arch we got married under to my flower crown and the bridal bouquets to the centerpieces, lighting, and draping of the reception, everything was so beautifully done. The whole process was so smooth and the results so wonderful, I couldn't imagine picking anyone else for my floral and decor. There isn't enough stars for Sue and her team at Beth's Flowers! Thank you Sue for making my dream wedding come true!
We loved working with Beth's Flowers! We were pretty clueless about wedding décor and how to execute the look we were going for. We met with Sue and she really stood out because she got to know us and was very patient with us. She also helped u...
s stay on budget by giving us different options and adjusting things as we got further into planning. She was so easy to work with and quick to answer emails. She also knows her stuff and is super creative, she was a great person to bounce ideas off of throughout wedding planning. When we saw our venue decorated on the day of our wedding we were blown away, they knocked it out of the park! It was stunning but also very "us". Everyone that works for them is friendly and helpful! It was also really nice that we got to see our flowers the day before the wedding. Everything was so beautiful you could tell that she had been doing this for years and knows how to transform a venue. Thank you Sue for the beautiful wedding!!
Sue did such an amazing job creating my dream bouquets! She was easy to work with and made sure to understand the vision I had for what everything would look like. She had worked with the venue before and new the managers so she was able to dec...
orate it exactly how we wanted. I have been thinking about how I want my wedding to feel and look for a long time and I really feel like Sue made that vision come to life! It was so beautiful the candles and the greenery it really made the place feel like a fairytale - we appreciated her going the extra mile! Thank you Sue!!
Sue (owner of Beth’s Flower) was my florist and wedding planner for our wedding on 10/27. I’m from Alabama, so I knew I’d need a New Orleans wedding planner to help me remotely plan the wedding. I found Beth’s Flower and a few other companies I...
liked from The Knot and set up phone calls with them the following week. I could tell from the first 5 minutes of the conversation that Sue was the clear choice and cancelled the remaining phone calls. THE BEST CHOICE I’VE MADE. Since this is the flower review I will focus on flowers and write the wedding planning review under her New Orleans Wedding Planners business. Sue knows the ins and outs of every single vendor in the city. She knows what the space looks like bare and what flowers need to go where. She always stays in budget and has the most talented design team in New Orleans. I will start off by saying I was a high-maintenance bride. That didn’t faze her one bit. Sue and her team were extremely attentive and always answered emails within the work day (usually within an hour or two). We emailed back and forth about the flowers and I sent her a PDF file of flowers I liked and the colors of my bridesmaid dresses, etc. Her prices were very fair and I had seen examples of her work online, so I knew it would be beautiful. I can honestly say that the flowers were probably the most beautiful physical aspect of the day. They were GORGEOUS and surpassed my expectations tenfold. Guests lined up to take photos in front of the beautiful arrangements she had in the outside portion of my venue. I had a very specific vision for my bouquet which she executed perfectly. THANK YOU to Beth’s Florist for being the glue that pieced my wedding together perfectly. I joked throughout the process that Sue was my fairy godmother…but I’m not joking. She really was!!!
I went to Beth's Flowers hoping to find the perfect flowers for my wedding and that's exactly what I got! I had a vague idea of what I wanted my bouquet to look like and Sue was able to put together a sample for me that was gorgeous...she naile...
d it! Sue is also very personable and has a realistic view of what works and what doesn't work for weddings. I heard she also was a wedding planner so we discussed some aspects about my wedding. She was so helpful and full great ideas. Since then she has been advising me every step of the way. She has helped me book the hotel for out of town guests, plan the rehearsal dinner, and coordinate transportation. Recently Sue has helped me design and order my save the dates which are adorable! She mailed them out and is collecting the RSVPs. Not having to worry about making sure everyone sends them in is such a stress relief for me! My mom and I keep saying "If it wasn't for Sue we would be lost!". She had made planning my wedding a fun and memorable experience!! I am looking forward to working with her all the way through the Big Day!
I had been to New Orleans a number of times, but knew I wasn't going to be able to travel down so a planner was essential. Sue and her team took us a tour of venues and tastings, a hair and make up trial, and reviewing invitations. We planned ...
our entire wedding with only one trip down to Nola from Utah.
She recommended a venue that fit exactly my style. I described, and had a vision of how everything was going to work. The flowers and decor were beautiful.
I typically do not write bad reviews and have debated writing this review for quite sometime. My experience with Beth's flowers was far from ideal. Our initial encounter was positive, she seemed to be very helpful and met with me a couple times...
to discuss flowers. As the wedding was getting closer, I decided to reach out to Sue and see if she was available for a month of planner as well. When she became my month of planner, she had me contact my vendors to find out what their arrival times were going to be and let her know, which I felt defeated the purpose of a month of planner. Well, on the day of our wedding, the month of planner showed up for a couple hours, then during the photos (when we would have needed her most), the planner disappeared and we never saw her again. Never once did she try to reach out to me or the photographer to find out where we were (just in case she got lost)....Then our flowers the day of....Sue took it upon herself to change our flowers against contract without consulting us. We also had a sign that was supposed to have a mixture of greenery and flowers on it which only had what appeared to be very cheaply done greenery with no flowers. She also never told our venue manager how we wanted the tables set up and how we were going to use the bridesmaids flowers for the tables. Luckily, I had a wonderful event manager and she scrambled to find vases for the flowers and tried to set everything up as quick as possible. Overall, Sue is a very abrasive person to her staff and does not take it well when you question her decisions. I would recommend trying somewhere else.
Response from the Vendor on 01/23/2020
Kristen, I'm so sorry you feel that way. I never make any changes to a floral contract with out consent of the bride or in your case your mom. I don't know if you know it or not. The week before your wedding your mom added greenery to your can...
dles on the tables. When I was with you the day of the wedding while you were getting your hair and makeup done, I showed you a picture of your room being set up. You told me you didn't like the greenery around the candles. So I had my staff take some of the greenery out. So I assume that is what you are talking about. Also I don't understand you saying that the planner was not their for you with your pictures. I was the one that worked with you for your wedding day. I was the one telling your photographer where the best place to shoot pictures at your hotel. We actually spoke about 20 minuets before she interred your room. She explained to me she had never shot their. So I gave her recommendations that I though was best. If you recall I was the one telling her what pictures to take of you and your families around the pool. I have many pictures of you their and your family. I asked you to send me over what hours you had booked your vendors for. So when we made your timeline for the day of your wedding we would know what hours to have them work. You stated that the we did not tell the planner at your reception where to place everything. I know you don't no this but she is one of my very best friends. We talked in length to where everything was going. My team was the ones that set your vases on the tables. I have the pictures. Before my team leaves a venue setting it up they must take pictures and a video and send it to me to make sure everything is in place. If my staff thought I was abrasive to them, they would be with me for over 20 years. I treat my staff family. Have a happy married life!
Sue was also my wedding planner and did a great job. Her team really excelled at the flowers! I shared a pinterest page with only a few images, and her team transformed our venue with candles and flowers for both the ceremony and reception spac...
e (transforming from one to other in only around an hour). My bouquet was lovely and lasted through quite a long day. All of our guests have told us what a beautiful wedding it was. Sue gets the job done!
Sue and her team were very professional. Me, my mom, and step-dad met with her to decide if we were going to go with this florist for the wedding. That day she showed us a quick sample of what our flowers for the wedding could look like which w...
as really awesome. I gave her our budget and she worked with me to make sure I got the overall image of what I wanted while staying within my budget (which is KEY ladies). The day before the wedding a bridesmaid and I went and saw the flowers before hand and Sue made sure I approved them all. The day of (which is really where they get their 5 stars) was VERY windy! My ceremony was on a balcony and I had wanted a floral arch. Sue had called me and said that the flowers on the arch had flown off the roof and she had one of her crew chasing after it! I know how New Orleans weather could be, so I told her if it couldn't happen its okay but she said she was going to try to make it work! When I was walking down the aisle, I was honestly surprised and delighted to see they had managed to get the floral arch there for the ceremony and it looked amazing! Oh, and the really icing on the cake was how affordable this florist is! Thanks, Sue and her crew!
Response from the Vendor on 01/20/2020
The wind was like a mini tornado had come through. The material for the arch blew off the forth floor and was flying through the french quarter. We are so happy this all worked out. Have a happy married life!
Where do I start?! I had an unbelievable experience with Sue at Beth’s Florists! She helped with every little detail and understood the exact vision I had and put it into life! My dream was to have a romantic candle light setting with greenery ...
galore and that is exactly what I got and it was beyond my wildest dreams! I wanted a cake that was as high as the sky with flowers that cascaded down the side and onto the table making it a staple centerpiece that everyone would see! I highly recommend using Sue for your wedding! She has the best personality and she WILL make sure everything you want will be delivered! Our wedding was a breeze and we were able to enjoy every moment of it and I couldn’t have imagined my wedding any different and I thank Sue and her team for it all!
Response from the Vendor on 01/14/2020
Let's talk about that 5ft. cake! I had to get on a 8 ft. ladder to decorated flowers trailing down. It was our pleasure to do your wedding. What a perfect day you had. Considering it was suppose to storm. It rained all day and right before the ...
wedding the skies cleared up on a beautiful December night. Have a happy married life!
I know many people got engaged over the Christmas holiday but I would suggest you do not use this "business." I think the main lady, Sue can be abrasive and rude. She sent me emails threatening to bash me publicly if I did not remove my review....
I received 2 different emails and a message on The Knot with threats to my place of employment saying she will post videos of me in my consultation or sue me. She recorded our consultations as stated in an email I received. I feel she was trying to sell me her service She mislead me and said she did many weddings at my venue when only 3 weddings have been at this place and they were my husband's siblings...but I ignored it because I felt it was just her trying to get me to trust her. I was under the impression that she would be at the rehearsal but she left in the middle and we had no explanation. My officiant came and told me that she said they are to run the rehearsal. .She said she contacted my officiants but when I talked to them they said she never reached out She showed me pictures of a flower that looked similar to peony which is what I wanted for my hair and ended up with ugly small roses when I told her multiple times no roses. I do not think that this vendor would be a good choice! If I did not have such a short engagement I should have seen the red flags and run.
Response from the Vendor on 01/13/2020
There is always two sides to every story. Here is ours! Emily Macaluso a teacher and came in with her mother to consult about her flowers. The consult lasted 3 hours. She sat their berating her mother the whole time. I felt so bad for her mom....
Planning- She asked us about planning and stated that she only needed a planner for the day of the wedding, for a few hours. We normally don't do that but we decided to do it for her. Two weeks after her and her mother came in for a consult; she came in with one of the bridesmaids. The whole time she kept telling me to "please keep my mother away from me the day of my wedding". She asked me to bring scissors to cut the veil her mother made for her to wear. Which I responded that I would not do that. We NEVER agreed to do her rehearsal for her. She never paid us to be there. When she came in the day before the wedding to view her flowers, she mentioned her rehearsal and I explained that she did not pay for us to attend the rehearsal. I stated she was at a church and the officiant would do the rehearsal with her. When I saw that this upset her, I changed my plans for the evening and went to her church for the rehearsal. Just like I stated, her officiant was there to do the rehearsal. I stayed and got them organized and up the aisle. I then spoke with the officiant and he said he's got if from here. So I left. She is right I never spoke to her officiant he was out of town. I spoke to his secretary Nancy.
Review- I sent her an email asking why she was lying on a review about me attending the rehearsal. We do have cameras in our store and it records everything. I'm glad that we did! We reviewed the three hour tape and it clearly stated in our conversation that we would only be there on the Wedding day.
Flowers- Ms. Emily Macluso has a contract for her flowers, stating the flowers she paid for. She would never have gotten Peonies from us because they are out of season. If she did not like her flowers for her hair we would have been happy to change them for her, if she had asked. The Knot has taken down 3 reviews that Ms. Emily Malcauso has written because we sent them the proof that she was not telling the truth.
Her mom- Ms. Maclauso is the sweetest lady she just wanted to give her daughter the best wedding. She brought flowers to the rehearsal to place on the pews and when she placed them on the pews her daughter told me to rip them off, which I refused to do.
We strive to make all of our brides happy and obviously there is some that we can never please.
There is always two sides to every story. Here is ours! Emily Maclauso is a teacher and came in with her mother to consult about her flowers. The consult lasted 3 hours. She sat their berating her mother the whole time. I felt so bad for her mom.

We are so happy you loved your flowers! Have a happy married life!
My daughter Taylor's wedding was held at Old Ursuline Convent in New Orleans which is 1 of the most beautiful settings in NOLA.
Sue and her team were magnificent with the flowers (bridal bouquet, bridesmaid flowers, flowers in the veunue etc.)...
, setting up and arranging all final details for Taylor's special day.
The flower spread for the cake was beyond our expeditions and my daughter was speechless when she was brought in the venue before our guest.
Sue's years of experience shows the outstanding job she does.
Every detail was done with perfection, care and professionalism.
A perfect host as a wedding planner with attention to detail and organization.
Our 2nd line band of Sue's finding were right on to what we wanted.
I've received so many comments from family and friends how perfect and beautiful my daughters wedding was. I can truly say I couldn't have done this without Sue her team and Beth's Flowers. Very highly recommended as a wedding planner and florist.
Response from the Vendor on 01/20/2020
Wow! What a stunning wedding! It was our pleasure to do your daughters wedding! Let's talk about that 5ft. cake! I had to get on a 8 ft. ladder to decorated flowers trailing down. It was our pleasure to do your wedding. What a perfect day you ...
had. Considering it was suppose to storm. It rained all day and right before the wedding the skies cleared up on a beautiful December night.
Beth's Flowers was a lifesaver for me, I went to them for flowers with late notice and on a tight budget and Sue was so incredibly helpful getting me set up! She made it quick and painless, was super responsive and worked with me until I was sa...
tisfied with the outcome! MY FLOWERS WERE ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING!!! I had so many guest comment on how gorgeous the flowers were, everything was correct and on time the day of, making it worry-free! Sue really knows what she is doing and also works as a wedding planner, so she kindly gave me great advice regarding how to decorate on a budget and where to find my cake and some rentals! I couldn't say enough on how pleased I was with this vendor, highly recommended!
Response from the Vendor on 01/07/2020
We love working with you and your crazy family. LOL you all were so much fun! Have a happy married life!
I strongly recommend Sue and her team for anyone planning a wedding in New Orleans. If you are coming from out of town, it is an absolute no brainier. We communicated our budget to Sue, and she was consistently candid about when our desires wou...
ld fall outside the range of our budget. She knows all the vendors, and will fight for you! Moreover, this is a team that will answer the phone at the most random times, and almost always reply to an email within a few hours -- I truly don't know how these women do it... but they do! I never felt like a commodity dealing with this team (despite the fact that they run countless weddings!) . They remembered the smallest details, and have a golden ability to deal with various temperaments. They were extremely conscientious about small details including older family members that would need assistance and who to appease at what times. Sue's prowess with flowers is just another bonus in this well rounded full package. For someone who was very anxious to cede control for an out of state wedding, I am just so thankful and blessed that we worked with Beth's Flowers. Sue, Nicole are a dream team.
Response from the Vendor on 01/07/2020
I have to say your flowers and that candle package really made your venue come to life. Have a happy married life!
From the very beginning, Sue and Nicole were both very punctual with returning my e-mails, which is so important to a bride in the wedding planning process. When I had my consultation in the shop, they presented me with floral replicas, albums ...
full of pictures, and arrangement ideas that completely exceeded my expectations. It was beyond easy to work with everyone in their shop, no matter what I needed! I'll never forget how I felt when I saw my wedding flowers delivered to our hotel on my wedding day. They were truly the most beautiful floral bouquets I had ever seen. It was evident that they had put their time into picking the best flowers and arranging them in a way that would bring out their beauty. I could not have been more proud to carry my bouquet from Beth's Flowers down the aisle! From the ceremony flowers, to the reception tables, to the flowers we ordered for our cake, everyone complimented them throughout the entire night! We could not be happier that we chose Beth's Flowers for our wedding day!

We were just married and I must say meeting Sue and Nicole at Beth's Flowers was a true blessing. Not being one who cared much for flowers, they made selecting the appropriate floral arrangements for our wedding and reception venues simple. Thi...
s was the first florist on our list and within our time there we were convinced this shop was the one for us. Our guests were amazed at the quality of roses and the attention to detail from the centerpieces down to the bridesmaids bouquets; no corners were cut. Also, for those ladies interested in preserving your wedding bouquet or husbands boutineer, I must remark that the flower preservation company I used was over the moon about the care and quality put into organization, sustaining and structure of the bouquet; i had a Saturday wedding, mailed my bouquet on Monday, it got to the preservation company on a Tuesday and they were shocked they were from four days earlier, they looked fresh as if the wedding was the same day... they too are singing Beth's Flowers praises. We highly recommend Beth's flowers to both the local and destination wedding couples as we too were working with them from two separate states, and despite our distance we were always in the loop and greeted with detailed emails or phone calls in a timely manner. We had our wedding at St. Louis Cathedral and reception at the Windsor court Hotel - managing a few dozen vendors and their schedules and attitudes is not easy, these folks stepped in and ensured our special day was a success. Additionally, Sue, and team offer wedding planning services for the day of and leading up to the wedding, if you are like us with a busy and active lifestyle, don't hesitate, take her up on this option, you will not regret it. They are not only good, but great at what they do and will help keep you on task and on budget with a southern flair :)

I've never been so disappointed in a "professional" in my entire life. Sue almost singlehandedly destroyed the vision that I had for my wedding. Not only that, but she's the most abrasive, manipulative, and disrespectful woman I've ever had the...
displeasure of working with. With that fact aside, let me explain where the main source of dissatisfaction comes from. I contacted Sue on the Knot in hopes of finding the perfect florist. I met with one of her assistants once where we discussed my vision for my wedding. My color for my wedding was aubergine, a deep purple, and I wanted sprays of eucalyptus from here to kingdom come. All of which was discussed thoroughly and agreed upon. The assistant even created a simulated bouquet for me to see, which contained dark purple flowers and eucalyptus. I was in love with what she created and the vision that she and I planned out in that meeting. We PAID for all of the bouquets and accents that were agreed upon, which included bundles of eucalyptus to be used not only in the bouquets, but on all of the tables as well. On January 31, 2019, we entered into a contract for a "MONTH OF PLANNER" with Sue, for my wedding in December 2019, because my mom thought we could use a little extra help with the vendors for the month before the wedding. With very minimal contact with Sue throughout those 10 months leading up to the wedding, I ended up reaching out to Sue around October to see if there was any way that I could bring in one of my bridesmaids' dresses (which was aubergine in color) to compare to the flowers being used to make sure that everything still looked the way I wanted it to. Sue responded by telling me that she looked at my flower contract and that the dress will look beautiful with it. Needless to say, I was very iffy about that response, but I tried to stay patient. Here's where the frustration explodes to nuclear. I did not hear from Sue once until the Friday before my wedding and that was because I remembered that she'd told me months prior that I needed to go in the day before the wedding and check out the flowers to make sure they were right. Imagine my surprise and horror when the bouquet that was brought out was RED. Every flower in the bouquet was some shade of dark red and these weird blue flowers. After several frantic phone calls, text messages, and FaceTime chats, the flowers were sorted out by Sue SPRAYPAINTING them purple. Fine. Whatever. And then we get to the venue. As mentioned above, there were supposed to be no other plants besides eucalyptus decorating the tables. Want to know what was there instead? CHRISTMAS TREE BRANCHES. Sue's response? "Well eucalyptus is out of season". Mind you, we agreed to and PAID FOR eucalyptus in JANUARY 2019. Never once was this a discussion that we had. The only saving grace that kept Sue from destroying everything was Tara Gonzales, the planner that Sue sent to assist on the day of the wedding. This poor woman walked into a train wreck and still managed to save the day. Were it not for Tara, my vision would have been lost and my wedding day ruined. But Tara kicked into Superwoman mode and fixed it all. If anyone deserves credit for how beautiful weddings are that Sue handles, it's not because of Sue. It's because of the women she hires to assist. Tara was a god send. And so, to summarize my review, look elsewhere for a wedding planner and florist. She doesn't abide by her contracts, nor does she know what's going on with her clients.

ng. These women handled every single detail for us after discussing the elements we wanted (and then some, because truly, we had no idea what we were getting into!!) and holy cow, did they deliver!!! From the gorgeous, lush ostrich feather and hydrangea centerpieces, to my to-die-for broach bouquet (created by hand, by Sue), we could not have imagined a more beautiful, timeless event. They connected me with all my vendors (and offered a variety to select from), helped find the perfect venue, and handled everything one could imagine while remaining in touch with us throughout. The entire event went off without a hitch and Sue and her team made sure of that as the night progressed. I truly could not have done any of it without these fabulous planners!!! We didn't even have to set up or break down a thing!!! It was ALL handled expertly. Every single person enjoyed themselves and our wedding was truly one that will not EVER be forgotten. I really don't believe it would have been so amazing, if not for the wonderful staff at Beth's. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for delivering the Gatsby-does-Nola wedding of our dreams!!! We could not have asked for more!

Worst experience! Worked with them for a year and walked in to the venue on the day of to Xmas tree branches as runners instead of seeded eucalyptus garlands and red, maroon and burgundy flowers with chartreuse accents instead of aubergine, p...
lum and eggplant flowers. Looked like they were trying to get rid of their Xmas decor extras. Triple cylinders with candles were supposed to be everywhere and there were little tea lights instead. Never, was there ever a conversation in a year of out of season greenery issues, which is what was the explanation was. Boxes of eucalyptus pieces finally showed up to piece together and throw around everywhere about 2 hours before the wedding. I could go on and on about the month of/day of wedding planner I paid for, but it’s over now. Shame on this florist/wedding planner. It was still beautiful in spite of the chaos that happened all morning, but no one needs to go through this for their wedding!
I honestly was clueless about what type of flowers to use for my wedding. I kept pushing it off because I didn't know how much I needed in my church, what exactly for my bouquet, etc. I set up an appointment with Sue and showed her a swatch of ...
my bridesmaid's fabric and told her colors I liked. She said, "hold on." She came out with a bridesmaid bouquet that was perfect. Somehow she knew what I was thinking even with me not being able to express it correctly. She then came out with a couple of other bride's bouquets and I was able to choose what I liked. Seeing the bouquets made my decisions so much easier since looking at a picture is so hard to visualize what it'll actually look like. Definitely would recommend Beth's Flowers to all brides-to-be. Sue is super helpful and was able to zone in on what I liked. I arrived really nervous because I didn't know what to ask and how to go about things, and she made me feel really happy and excited about flowers when I left.
From start to finish Beth’s made my experience amazing and unique I got to pick out the flowers for the bouquets and get a visual of how everything would look. They did a great job in setting everything up and I never saw them throughout the en...
tire set up. They did an amazing job for the ceremony! When going down the aisle I noticed the petals lining the aisle before my now husband! It looked amazing and definitely worth it. They did a great job with setting up and making my wedding beautiful! Going with them made my event a little less stressful. I would definitely recommend them for any of my friends!

nd needs. Her attendees showed up and helped me and my girls get ready. They became friends. Sue was at the venue getting everything perfect. When I say perfect it, it's an understatement. People have messaged me saying it was by far the best wedding they have ever attended. My husband and I were waited on hand a foot. We were never thirsty nor hungry. Our glasses remained full and yes, we actually ate at our wedding. We danced, laughed, and had a blast. Everyone warned me before hand that my wedding would be a blur. That I would be pulled in so many directions that the end would come before I knew it. NOT TRUE! Sue and her staff made sure everything on the itinerary was completed within a half hour of the reception leaving plenty of time for me and my husband to thoroughly enjoy ourselves. After the reception her staff made sure all of our things including left overs were boxed and brought to out hotel. Out flowers were stunning too!

Sue and her team were amazing. At the time we did not live in New Orleans and I was told by my family it was unnecessary to have a planner since I already had a venue by the time I decided to hire Sue (Owner of Beth's Flowers). They were wrong....
Sue took care of everything--most importantly things I didn't even know I needed. I simply would not have had the wedding I wanted, a wedding that was better than perfect, if it weren't for this amazing woman and her team.
Weddings in the French Quarter are very complicated things to host. Since this is the most historic district in New Orleans there are permits that you need to get for everything--something I had no idea about.
I also didn't know that if you file for permits as a regular person online those requests are often lost or simply ignored. I didn't understand why no one, including people at city hall and the Cathedral would call me back. Sue fixed everything and took over so I didn't have to worry about being ignored. When I had been ignored for over a month to pull a second line permit, she pulled the permit in an hour. Sue simply made a call, or had one of her girls make a call and within a few minutes the permits were pulled.
Her company did my flowers as well and we were given discount on our gorgeous flowers. They were just stunning. I got so many complements.

When we started planning the wedding - I had no idea what I wanted in flowers or which flowers to get or what exactly what we needed. My mom, sister in law and myself went to Beth’s to begin the conversation, I did not expect for everything to...
go as easy as it did. Within the hour we had everything planned to exactly how I envisioned my wedding. Their creative eye and their ability to adjust anything and everything to your liking was amazing. We also had to opportunity to come by the day before the wedding to do a preview in case we needed to change anything, for us - not one thing needed changing. My flowers were absolutely beautiful on the day of, and we’re exactly how I imagined them to be. The delicacy of each bouquet and centerpiece really set the tone for the wedding. Beautiful is an understatement. Thank you Beth’s for bringing my wedding to life, and making my perfect day unforgettable

e phone! Our wedding and reception was on The Creole Queen Paddlewheeler, and we had a second line parade. Needless to say, there were many moving parts due to the boat actually cruising during the reception and the ceremony being performed by the Capitan immediately prior. Sue, recognizing what would be involved paired with our destination wedding plans, offered her planning services and I said “Yes Ma’am, PLEASE!” She asked all the right questions and even helped us figure out where to get our actual marriage license. She was so familiar with the venue, had contacts and recommendations for music, photography, and hotels. She was great down to every detail. She even helped us arrange transportation to the venue and pedi-cabs for our guess who had mobility challenges so they could be a part of our second line. (I am SO HAPPY that we did that because it was our guest's favorite part!!) The flower arrangements we perfect! She took the inspiration from The Creole Queen Paddlewheeler and married it perfectly to my style! There was no stone left unturned. She is more than a florist, she made my wedding perfect!!
Also, my mother-in-law asked my husband and I if we wanted a formal rehearsal dinner and that’s not really our style. So when she suggested a cocktail party for all the guest who were making the trip, we said PERFECT! When she booked Pat O’s on the River that is in the ole JAX Brewery, we asked Sue if she and her team could help us decorate it. Of course she said, “No problem, Baby. What do you have in mind?” I told her that I wanted the party to say “Welcome to New Orleans, thank y’all for comin!!” So she took that and ran with it! It was beyond perfect!! The table tops were beautiful, with all things NOLA!! From Mardi Gras masks to all sorts of beads, to red beans and rice and beignet mix, to beautiful flower arrangements with crawfish ornaments adorning them. She let us know that the guest were encouraged to take the decor home with them and everyone loved it!! Especially the beignet mix!! So fun, so beautiful, and so perfect!
Overall, our wedding would would have been chaotic and stressful with out Sue and her team at Beth's Flowers. If I could rate her 10 stars I would! Use her for your flowers and wedding planning needs!!

We are so happy you loved your flowers! Have a happy married life!
Y’all! I walked in this place told her exactly what I had in mind. She went to the back and came back out in 10 minutes and had made a complete mock up of my whole bouquet!!! It was absolutely gorgeous and that was it just being “thrown togethe...
r”. I knew that I had to book her immediately. No regrets. Hands down the best bouquets and arrangements I have ever seen! The flowers were the easiest least stressful part of my planning! Thank you!

We want all our brides to be able to see their vision come to life at our appointments. So glad you loved your flowers!
We used Beth's Flowers for both flowers and for day-of-coordination services. Sue and her team were great. The flowers were beautiful and they went above and beyond in making sure our needs for the ceremony and reception were met. They are an ...

I met Sue with Beth’s at a bridal show and of all the florists there she was the only one that did not shoot down my ideas right away. Instead, she actually listened and helped me focus my ideas in an intro meeting the following day.

Throughout the whole process, the team was friendly, knowledgeable, and very responsive.

Thanks again!
Sue was absolutely amazing to work with! I planned our wedding from out of town and was worried about picking vendors - not only did Beth's Flowers deliver me stunning bouquets, but they helped with favors and vendor recommendations. Their re...

My flowers came out beautifully. Sue, the main lady there, listened to my vision and stuck with it, but also took a little creative license with the design which I appreciated. She also respected my budget and was patient with several changes I...
decided to make later on. My wedding had to be pushed back a week due to Hurricane Barry, and she heavily touched up almost all of my flowers for very little additional money! It could've been a nightmare but it was still gorgeous. My only critique is that they were sometimes slow to answer emails, but I know they do weddings each week so they are probably most responsive to their most urgent brides. Calling the store seemed to help get things done quicker if we needed. Overall, we were incredibly pleased with the value for the price.I found them to be one of the most reasonably priced places around, that still had instagram-worthy flowers!
Beth's flowers are the best bang for your buck in new orleans. I looked around at many different shops and was baffled by the prices. I wanted simply flowers. Beth's flowers did exactly what I wanted and made my ideas come to life, at a much ch...

Sue is amazing! She made me feel like I was in good hands! She even changed some of my flower order when I showed her the wedding dress I ended up getting! She knew how to give expert advice on what flowers would look good with my dress, locati...

s out, but at the end of the day I remembered that it’s only flowers. I was a pretty laid back bride and making decisions was easy for me, but the flowers were the part that stressed me out... which is SO SILLY!!!! Like I said, GORGEOUS WORK, but very poor customer service. You shouldn’t feel belittled when planning your wedding. I’m surprised with the positive ratings on The Knot. Yelp reviews are VERY different... forewarning.
Beth's Flowers hooked it up for us!! We had two meetings with them and I showed them the concept I had in mind and they came through in a major way. They were able to stretch our budget and our ceremony and venue looked HEAVENLY!! I highly sugg...

We had a wonderful experience with Beths flowers. They dropped off our beautiful flowers on time and they lasted beautifully. I have my old bouquet hanging on the wall of our home and it still looks gorgeous...even dried!
Sue was amazing!! She was so helpful during the process of picking out the flowers and she really delivered!! The flowers at the reception were more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. I would highly recommend her for your wedding!

Working with Sue at Beth's Flowers was truly one of the best decisions we could have made during our wedding planning process. Not only did she create the floral arrangements of my dreams, she also designed the most elegant wedding invitation f...
or us and our guests. I honestly had no idea of what I wanted our wedding invitations to look like, but she showed us some examples and helped us make our decision based on the color schemes we liked, our budget & our personalities. We got so many compliments on them! When we sat down to do the flowers for the wedding, I had a couple of ideas of what I wanted my bridal bouquet to look like and the floral arrangements for the reception. I also had a budget that we had discussed previously. Sue looked at the pictures and went and put bouquets together for us in 5 minutes that fit our budget and they were 100% exactly what I was looking for. Sue was also extremely responsive throughout the wedding planning process. If I ever had a question, she responded immediately and assured me that she had it taken care of. Andrew and I don't live in New Orleans so the fact that we were able to accomplish everything we needed in ONE meeting was amazing and then she handled everything else via email. I cannot thank Sue and Beth's Flowers enough for the amazing job they did with our wedding. Wish we could do it all over again!
After several months of trying to plan our NOLA wedding from Georgia (and too many tears), I researched New Orleans wedding planners. I came across Sue with Beth's Flowers. After an initial call, she promised me "bring the dress, we'll do the r...
est." I was hooked. About 9 months later and endless worry- filled phone call (on my part), she always answered and ended every call with "trust me." On June 1, 2019 I married my best friend with absolutely NO worries or angst about the ceremony, 2nd line or reception! Everything ran so smoothly behind the scenes. My husband and I couldn't be happier with our experience planning from afar. I'll leave those who choose this route... just listen to Sue!
My flowers were absolutely stunning! It was so easy to work with Sue - I sent her my Pinterest boards and she matched my inspiration perfectly. Beth's Flowers is incredibly reasonable with their prices and I would recommend them to anyone who w...
ould listen! Also, I planned my wedding from Texas and never even had to step foot in their door - everything done over the phone and matched to perfection!
The team at Beth's Flowers is AMAZING!! They were so easy to work with and offered excellent pricing. They could easily charge more for such beautiful work! This was a destination wedding for us so having vendors that were communicative and hel...
pful was so important. They also let me see my flowers the day before my wedding which I loved. I highly recommend Beth's for any occasion!
I recently did business with beths flowers for my wedding and I have to say I was very disappointed. Initially, I met with Lisa and our consultation went very well, somewhere along the lines Lisa was in and out the picture due to personal reaso...
ns (which is fine, things happen right). The months leading up to the wedding, I was looking to add on flowers/things. When trying to get price quotes, no one in the staff could give me a quote on not just flowers but how much it was to rent a candelabra or an arch! How do you not have a price book? They kept saying we have to wait for Sue to get a quote? What ! Lets keep going, when I finally did meet with Sue, I found her to be judgemental, condescending and pushy. She kept insisting we get more, "you have no flowers baby", (Im 29 yrs old) my budget was at $2500, which was enough flowers for me, but honestly I would have bought more candles/flowers if my experience would have been better. I ended up going to a third party vendor to complete my wedding decor. Anyway wedding day, my bouquets did come out very nice I have to say, but that was it. The boutiners were very small (could hardly see my fathers), I paid for cake sprays (cluster roses) literally there were 6 white roses on my already white cake! Granted white was in my color scheme, but there were no other colored roses. I could have bought a 12 stem rose bouquet from anywhere and it would have looked better. Not to mention I ordered 10 large candle vases for when I walked down the aisle they brought 8. Overall, I cant believe how many great reviews this place gets. In exception to Lisa, the staff was rude, and the customer service was poor.
Sue and Beth's Flowers were amazing! I only had them make the bouquets, bouts, and corsages for my wedding but they were all so beautiful and look amazing in the pictures. It was so quick for me to meet with Sue to set up the type of flowers ...
I wanted for the wedding. At the time I didn't realize that I had chosen pick up instead of delivery and by the time I realized it, it was too late to schedule for delivery because they were so booked for the weekend of my wedding.
Thankfully they ask you to come look at the flowers the day before to make sure you like the arrangements and I really did love them! Definitely a great service on their part for a great price.
Sue and her coworkers did a great job! We got married at the Audubon Aquarium, so she had shells, sand, floral displays, led candles, and cards on the table designating where the bridal party, bride and groom, etc. should sit. The aisle was bea...
utiful too with led candles and two columns with floral displays at the end of the aisle. My bouquet had lily of the valley, blue orchids, and coral roses, which were all stunning together!
Ms. Sue did an amazing job. I contacted her last minute and she worked her magic and made our ceremony absolutely beautiful - the backdrop and large floral arrangements were stunning!!!
We got married in New Orleans on Easter weekend...which you can imagine was probably a very busy weekend in the floral world. Beth's did a wonderful job and the flowers were exactly what I wanted, they even let me come the day before to preview...
them all and make sure they were exactly how I wanted!!!! Their pricing is very competitive and I 100% recommend them.
The flowers we got from Beth's were gorgeous! Got a ton of compliments on them. The reason for the 3 stars is the communication with our original staff member Lisa somehow got lost in the transition of her leaving and eventual replacement by Sa...
ra (Both Lisa and Sara were very nice and helpful). The ideas I had on color were not there on the Friday before the wedding, but they worked out fine. They were able to make a last minute change to the groom's boutonniere, Sara could tell I wasn't happy about it and we were able to make a simple addition to make it more than just standard.

We are so happy you loved your flowers! The reason we let our brides come the day before your weddings is to make sure everything is exactly how you want it. Have a blessed married life!
Beth's Florist provided the most beautiful flowers for my daughter's wedding wedding reception. The bouquet's, corsages, floral arrangements and candle package we chose for the reception were outstanding. My daughter and I could not be happie...
r. We also ordered our save-the-dates, wedding invitations and second line hankies from Beth's Florist. They were beautiful and my daughter and I received many many compliments on everything that we ordered from Beth's Florist. I am especially impressed with her staff who contacted me the morning of the wedding and face timed all the flowers, corsages, and table arrangements so that we could make any changes if needed. The flowers were beautiful. Even after they were delivered, Sue contacted me by phone to let me know the flowers were delivered to our reception venue and to make sure we received everything at our hotel. If you have an event and need beautiful flowers, candles, invitations, wedding favors, etc. then contact Sue with Beth's Florist in Metairie.
We got married in New Orleans, LA this past January 2019. We used Beth's flowers and they were absolutely beautiful! They made our vision come to life. When they arrived on our wedding day I was absolutely thrilled. I had asked for a blue anemo...
ne as my "special flower." Lisa suggested using a silk flower so that they do not wilt and you could not tell the difference next to the real flowers. They were also very gracious to our budget and helped us find ways to create our vision in ways that we could afford. Thank you Lisa and Sue for your beautiful flowers!!
My future-husband and I sat down with Sue and Lisa and discussed our wants and needs. We set a budget and Sue and Lisa provided us with great options that fit within that budget tailored to our needs! The flowers were absolutely beautiful and c...
ertainly the focus of our decor.
My initial consult with Lisa was great. I came back around and wanted to add more flowers for my wedding (more business) and when I went into my scheduled appointment at one point I had to tell everyone to chill out because I felt SO RUSHED! th...
en when I was coordinating with all my vendors Sue made me extremely nervous about showing up st the right time she told me she would contact the vendor and when I talked to my venue the day of my wedding she had not heard from her. Then my flower girl baskets and petals were forgotten and my flower girls were upset. The floral bouquets were pretty busy the customer service was rushed and bad.
I was very surprised at what a negative experience I had with this company. They did my mothers flowers at her wedding, she had a great experience and many people recommended them. Our initial consultation was great, then it was all down hill ...
from there. Every time I called, I felt like the employees were short and condescending. The day of the wedding, my bouquet came and the flowers were the absolute wrong color. They did not match any of the other flowers. So I called to have them picked up and corrected. They handled this well, but the corrected bouquet was still not good. I almost re-arranged the bouquet myself, but did not have the tools to do so. Then. When I got the the reception, the flowers on the cake were not only minimal (I mean literally 3 flowers) but they were the wrong color as well. I dont know how things went so wrong, but looking back this was the worst part of my wedding experience. For as much as you have to pay for flowers and candles, I was severely underwhelmed with the service along the way and the end product.
Sue and her staff at Beth's Flowers are an absolute necessity when planning a wedding. I never lifted a finger, I NEVER stressed about one wedding related issue. I literally woke up the day of my wedding with full sanity and confidence in her ...
ability to execute All of my wants and needs. Her attendees showed up and helped me and my girls get ready. They became friends. Sue was at the venue getting everything perfect. When I say perfect it, it's an understatement. People have messaged me saying it was by far the best wedding they have ever attended. My husband and I were waited on hand a foot. We were never thirsty nor hungry. Our glasses remained full and yes, we actually ate at our wedding. We danced, laughed, and had a blast. Everyone warned me before hand that my wedding would be a blur. That I would be pulled in so many directions that the end would come before I knew it. NOT TRUE! Sue and her staff made sure everything on the itinerary was completed within a half hour of the reception leaving plenty of time for me and my husband to thoroughly enjoy ourselves. After the reception her staff made sure all of our things including left overs were boxed and brought to out hotel. We literally just walked out with our clothes on our back not having to worry if anything had been left behind or who was going to bring what home. Furthermore we didn't have to designate one of our family members with any tasks, they too got to sit back and enjoy. Our wedding couldn't have gone any more smoothly. It was truly a PERFECT day.
I had to book my flowers for my wedding within a month of the wedding and Sue was so helpful and accommodating! I told her what I wanted and my budget and she more than delivered! The flowers were exactly what I envisioned and I couldn't be hap...
