Black Sheep Gardens

the right fit for us. As someone who knows pretty much nothing about flowers other than what looks pretty, I knew I needed to book a florist that would take my vision and bring it to life and who was willing to make suggestions and guide me in the right direction. Leah was extremely clear in her communication (despite the challenges we faced of wedding planning during a pandemic) and because her level of expertise was so clear in the communication and in her portfolio I knew I could place my full trust in her and could sort of "check this off my list" because I knew she had it covered. As we all know, flowers can be very expensive, and I had a rather large wedding. Leah helped guide me to cut or add based on our space and needs and was never "in if for the money" but very honest and helpful to make sure that our vision came to life within our budget. On the day of, Leah and her team were so efficient despite having several different spaces in our venue to set up. I really have never seen a more stunning bouquet in my life - it was exactly what I was envisioning and I really don't know how they possibly got it so perfect. And when I saw my jaw dropped seeing my arbor arrangement and then my reception space - it was truly the most stunning works of art and I could not be more happy with the final results. Leah and her team are complete experts, with very kind souls, and made the wedding planning journey a bit easier for us. I am so happy that we were able to work together and cannot thank them enough for bringing our vision to life and for all their support along the way. Don't hesitate - book them now!!!

about how beautiful and unique her work was! Highly recommend hiring Leah as your florist!!

some freedom to surprise me as well and I am so glad she did! She is creative and SO SO talented. My venue planner told me that the setup of our reception area was her favorite that she has ever seen- and that is because of Leigh! I would get married all over again just to see what she can come up with next! THANK YOU! - Anna & Mark 7/17/21

s along the way). My bouquet was more perfect than I ever imagined.

owers FLOORED me when I walked into my wedding venue. I had to take a walk around the venue with my mom for a very special 10 minutes just to marvel Leah's beautiful, stunning, awe-inspiring work. She went above and beyond and absolutely blew through the ceiling of my expectations. The table flowers, the creative displays, the bouquets, the greenery details throughout the venue were just amazing. All of our guests were complimenting the flowers all night, all day the next day, and still, months later, people are talking about the beautiful flowers. Leah also actively helped us work together to pick out the best detials for our tables, candles, and gave opinions on what she thought would work best. This was so so helpful. She was really a part of our wedding team that made the day so beautiful. If you're looking for a florist.....just stop looking and contact Black Sheep Gardens!!

ruly brought the event to a whole new level. I would HIGHLY recommend!

s so easy to work with and executed everything flawlessly and then some! All my guests including myself were so blown away by all the floral arrangements and table settings. They were stunning! She really went above and beyond to make sure we were happy, making changes along the way as needed and making suggestions when couldn’t decide. She created mood boards and a detailed proposal so we knew exactly what we were getting. We can’t thank her enough for making our wedding weekend so very special. If you are having your wedding in the Adirondacks, you have to go with Black Sheep Gardens. I can’t express enough how great they are.

save money and they explained how it would look too scarce and we needed a fuller look to keep that elegant feel I was looking for. They are definitely more expensive, but I feel like it is to be expected in that area. I made a lot of changes to our order as time went on so I also appreciated them being so flexible with me. My only regret was that I wish when they dropped the bouquets off that they stopped in to say hello so I could thank them in person! Black Sheep does wonderful work and you won't be disappointed.

e envisioned, and Leah brought it to life absolutely beautifully. The OUTSTANDING quality of the flowers Leah used to create her stunning designs was like nothing we've ever seen before...sheer perfection! Thank you, Leah...you were a joy to work with!

eautiful floral hair clip for my mom instead of a traditional wrist arrangement. When I saw them on the day of, I was blown away... they were exactly what I wanted and more. Their floral arrangements will make you want to get married again and again, just so you can hire them.

s my first local vendor in the area of Lake Placid. It was the best decision! When I walked into my wedding venue and saw everything that was put together by Leah, I fell so in love!! So many of my guests couldn’t stop raving about the centerpieces & the garland that ran across the mantle and our head table. Everything was just perfect. Not having to worry about floral placement and design was such a big stress relief in the process of planning a wedding and on our wedding day - Leah handled it all! Having a local vendor is definitely worth every penny - they know what they’re doing!!! Trust them — you will love it!

eyond to put all of my thoughts into a cohesive and beautiful display of floral arrangements!

the large arrangements, the bride's bountiful bouquet, the table center pieces, the boutonnieres and corsages and on down to the baby's hair wreath. We received compliment after compliment on all the flowers. Thank you, Leah

personal, understanding, genuine and fun to work with! Our flowers are still one of the #1 remarks people make when reminiscing about our wedding and when we look back at photos, we are still amazed at how they did it and how it all added to the beauty of the day. Leah and Pam truly love what they do and evoke true artistry and genuine passion and excitment for their work and your special day in every interaction. They really listen to what you want and are just as excited as you to see the vision come to life. If you want florists who listen to your vision, share their knowledge and work to create something beautiful and unique to you that will leave you speechless, Leah and Pam are the best of the best.

iled it. Our ceremony and reception flowers were even more stunning! Family, friends, and even event staff couldn't stop raving. Look no further than Black Sheep!!

s very flexible when I wanted to make any changes. All of our arrangements were absolutely perfect and I can’t recommend Black Sheep Gardens enough! Thank you Leah and Pam for adding beautiful touches to our day and making it so special!

ferent colors and textures to create works of art. The larger arrangements were absolutely stunning, and I was so impressed by their creativity and artistry. We received so many compliments and many guests took the flowers home. Leah and Pam were very easy to work with and always professional. They even invited us to their studio to see flowers and sample arrangements in person, to help us decide on our order. Their pricing is not cheap, but we found them about on par with comparable vendors in the area. I thought their creativity and attention to detail was well worth it, and I would definitely recommend them!

as I was planning the wedding from another state. They always took the time to go over all the details and prices with me, which I'm sure wasn't always easy, being how indecisive I am and how I constantly waited till the last minute to make a decision. They never seemed to lose patience with me. My bouquets and reception decor arrived completely on time and looked exactly as I had imagined, which was hard, considering I had a mash-up of pictures that I gave them for my ultimate choice - somehow they did it! My reception looked beautiful too; so many guests told me how classy it looked and how well it complimented the venue. I honestly don't have a single negative thing to say - except that I wish flowers in general were cheaper so that I could have used their talents even more!

ng with me to make sure I stayed under a set budget. When we first met I had told them about everything we’d potentially want for our wedding as if budget wasn’t an option. Then they worked with me to see where we could cut costs or simplify arrangements in order to stay under a specific budget. On top of all that they were super friendly and cheerful to work with. You can clearly tell that flowers are their passion and that they truly care about making each and every person’s wedding day special.

did not know enough about flowers to make specific requests. Visiting Pam and Leah in their studio, they took my few ideas and pictures of what I liked, and created flowers for our wedding day that were even more beautiful than I could have imagined. They were always easy to get a hold of, quick to respond, and very organized. They are also so experienced with working with weddings. They made the morning seamless when dropping off and setting up the flowers. They dropped flowers at multiple locations (in the pouring rain!) with smiles on their faces. Seeing my bouquet was a highlight of my wedding morning. They really helped to make our vision become reality!

centerpieces, and spray were breathtaking!!! Absolutely beautiful!! Thanks so much for being a special part of their day!

t would be reasonable to expect to be readily available for that time of year. Leaving it in their capable hands was definitely the right call, because everything turned out beyond beautifully! (One photo I love from our wedding day is of me receiving my bridal bouquet and the look of sheer excitement on my face!) We admittedly did not have a huge budget for flowers (our main concern was the bouquets, then some greenery for our reception tables and a couple of additional accent arrangements for our reception), but Leah and Pam were extremely understanding about this and never tried to sell us anything more or anything less than exactly what we wanted. I had been admiring their work on social media for months before taking the plunge and booking them for our wedding, and I couldn't be happier that I did!

didn’t even get a new dress. But my husband surprised me with a big, absolutely gorgeous, lush bouquet from Black Sheep Gardens that was the most beautiful arrangement I have ever seen. It dried perfectly, and still smells good. I will treasure it forever.
