Whether you are planning an intimate affair for a few, or a grand celebration for hundreds, at Blooming Blossoms we know that each bride has her own style, and we can help her to express it...in flowers.
Pam was the most exceptional vendor to work with. She made wedding planning so much easier. I cannot speak highly enough about her and her skills. We hired her pre-COVID, then had to push our date a year. During all of this, she was flexible an...

What I really appreciated about Pam was when we first spoke with her she really listened to what we wanted and was honoring our budget. She didn't tell us we needed flowers in places we didn't just to make more money. She was also very flexible at the end when we added two pieces in for the church. She showed up to my house early to drop off the bouquets and helped attach my grandmother's and mother's garter. Pam and Blooming Blossoms were great! We highly recommend!

to happen, Pam was super understanding. There were check ins when she would ask what the plan was and the only answer I had was simply ‘I don’t know.’ Still though she said just to let her know what the plan was and whenever I knew, that would work. I picked my centerpiece displays just about 2 weeks before my wedding. There was so much stress once we knew for sure the wedding was on, but working with someone like Pam definitely helped. There was lots of tweaks and last minute decisions. She didn’t seem worried at all about the time crunch we were now in, and that eased me. My flowers were so beautiful and I loved each and every piece. She sent me a preview of some of the centerpieces so I could see them prior to the day. To see them all displayed on my wedding day was something else though, and she did not disappoint. I loved my bouquet and each one for the bridesmaids. I loved everything. I cannot thank Pam & Blooming Blossoms enough for being a part of my perfect day !

We received a ton of compliments from guests about the flowers and overall aesthetic.

They shoved bundles of babies breath in a few jars for our centerpieces and ignored what we asked for. When our venue contacted them to ask them to fix it, the venue was told that they had no flowers. Our event manager went to Stop & Shop and bought the right flowers. They fixed our centerpieces and made it what we wanted. How is it that an event manager could do this but not the florist? They bought our arch the night before and it was nothing like we wanted because they forgot they promised to provide an arch and contacted us two days before our wedding to say they didn’t know. They forgot the flowers for our cake. I could go on. Bottom line, I have never been so disgusted by a business in my life. Shame on them.

Finding a florist was the single most stressful thing about planning my wedding. I had an intimate, 75 person wedding at the Waterman Grille. No wedding party- just my husband and I, family and close friends. I needed 10 centerpieces, ceremo...
ny pieces, a few pew bows, parents boutineers /corsages and my bouquet. I must have spoken to 5 different florists- and the pricing they gave me was crazy!! I was actually referred to Pam by another florist who already had my date booked and could not accommodate me. She said that she sends any weddings that she can't fit in to Pam b/c she knows that Pam will take great care of the bride!
First- Pam was considerate of my budget. I wanted specifically a peony/garden rose bouquet , so I expected my bouquet to be more expensive. However,I was flexible on the centerpieces and other items, and I just asked her to create a soft white/pink color theme. She suggested flowers that were in season that would achieve the romantic theme I was looking for.
Second- When I saw the flowers, I was shocked. They looked beautiful! Low and lush, with gorgeous blooms. Some of my guests said that the centerpieces lasted 2 1/2 weeks when they brought them home! I got so much more than what I was expecting. To top it all off, Pam was awesome to work with!! Down to earth, sweet, and a true lover of what she does.
There is a reason that Blooming Blossoms has been a Wedding Wire award winner: they value customer service and really listen to their customers. I am forever grateful to Pam for providing me with such beautiful flowers for my wedding. I have since used her for other occasions, and she never disappoints. I am now a customer for life.

Pam did a great job with our centerpieces and bouquets! I knew nothing about flowers going into the wedding planning process, and ended up changing my mind many times about the colors, style, and vision of the flowers I wanted. Pam was very fle...
xible and accommodated our budget and my occasional "crazy bride" moments (at one point, I sent her a Powerpoint of flower ideas!), and she was able to translate my thoughts into gorgeous centerpieces and bouquets. I loved how the important pieces turned out. The one piece of advice I'd give to couples that end up working with Pam is to be really detail-oriented and explicit in the final written proposal, and make sure you get on the same page verbally one last time, too. Because we had so many in-person meetings, phone calls, and email conversations, some ideas got lost (even though I edited them into the final proposal and sent it over by email...). We didn't go over everything one last time and some of the details I expected to see (cake flowers, flower girl basket, special groom boutonniere) didn't make it to the final day. I feel that if we had walked over the final document together one last time, that wouldn't have happened. Overall, we were happy with Pam's flexibility and work with the bigger pieces though.

All I told Pam during our first meeting was that I was going for a 1930s look, and gave her a general sense of the color scheme. Aside from that I didn't really have a lot of concrete ideas, but it didn't matter. It was like she looked into my ...
soul and saw the flowers I wanted, but didn't know I wanted.
She absolutely hit it out of the park--the arrangements were spot-on perfect for my venue, and were more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. Everything had so much texture and movement, and my guests couldn't stop commenting on how gorgeous they were.
Also--we forgot to get any kind of cake topper, and literally 2 hrs before the wedding, we mentioned this to Pam's husband when he was delivering the table arrangements. He went back into his truck and made a beautiful little flower arrangement for our cake in about 5 minutes, at no charge.
Can't recommend BB highly enough!

I am not someone who typically writes negative reviews, but I was so heartbroken over how my flowers turned out at my wedding I felt I had to let other brides know.
I should start by saying that Pam is a nice person and I initially really f...
elt like we connected. And although she is hard to get a hold of, I felt she listened to me and accepted my ideas, as I had a specific vision and she was affordable...so I thought.
But after looking at what she brought, I simply don't know where the money went. My florals cost $2700 which I feel is a decent sized budget given what I asked for. That turned out slightly higher than our original budget as Pam end up raising the prices on my centerpieces by almost double what was originally quoted a month before; however we did come to an agreement and met in the middle. In addition, after seeing all of the florals, everything was half the size I thought it was going to be and it looked as though it was thrown together with very little effort or care.
I am a designer and am very detail oriented, and I know what I want. Pam was given explicit instructions on what I wanted, photos, diagrams, color swatches etc, specifically to avoid a situation like this. All I asked for were roses and hydrangeas in gradient shades of pink, no exotics or anything. But the colors just weren't consistent, she bought flowers I specifically told her not to, and the corsages she brought were very cheap looking and not attractive....I could go on and on. She did get a few things exactly how I asked for them, which I have no complaints about. But what I want to get across is that the vision I had for my wedding, a vision that was communicated to her many times over just never came into fruition.
I think the worst part about all of this is that she gave me a proposal and listed out what everything would cost in each category. Well the day of the wedding came and we were missing flowers. Pam said she spent up to my budget and because of that I was left with several things that had no flowers at all...even though it was all on her proposal. She actually left me with no flowers for my cake! I had to have a friend go the grocery store to get me roses so I wouldn't have a bare cake! But everything else that was supposed to have blooms in/on it.....I went with none. For someone who has been in business as long as her she should know her costs.
She caused me such stress and tears on my wedding day, not only that but tears after my wedding day because my vision that I worked so hard on, just never happened.

major flower incident on the day of the wedding as they had forgotten to bring 2 sets of flowers for the huppah. The person who delivered the flowers had already left and with only 20-minutes until the ceremony, my mother called Pam to see what happened. She was immediately blamed for the exclusion of the flowers stating that "the flowers were cancelled to stay within the budget". These were never cancelled and it was not until the next day that she admitted her error to my parents. It wasnt the fact that the flowers were forgotten on the day of the wedding as more of the fact that it was not handled well from a customer service perspective. Blooming blossoms did a nice job with the display of the flowers but the customer service was lacking throughout the process.

The flower arrangements were absolutely beautiful and included a number of freebees such as vases for the bouquets, candles, and flowers for the cake.
As another perk, for an additional delivery charge, she transported the flower arrangements from the ceremony to the reception and cleaned up the ceremony area so no one in the wedding party had to worry about that.
Pam was wonderful at showing me in-season floral options and I ended up going with a totally different-colored bouquet than I originally had planned. I would definitely recommend her.

She EVEN include a gorgeous, gigantic lady slipper orchid as the focal point of my bouquet, which included everthing I asked for: Gardenias, Jasmine, Ranunculus, other things, and a variety of gorgeous pristine orchids in a perfect teardrop form.
My bridesmaids had equally stunning and charming bouquets with fiddlehead ferns and complementary orchids.
It was funny because while I was getting ready my wedding day morning (May 22) I was getting stressed out and a little anxious, but boom, Pam showed up and I flipped my lid and got extremely excited.
She was totally accommodating to EVERY question, late night email with me going between color decisions... and she never once was anything but totally gracious, loving, interested, and present.
My husband and I traveled about an hour and a half to Providence, brought our big dog, and had a great meeting. I wish I had another occasion to work with Pam, but the best I can do is yell her praises from the rooftops!
DO NOT MISS OUT, THIS IS A SURE THING!!!! I'll have photos on her website soon.. totally top notch. Oh! and the centerpieces? AMAZING. the orchids everywhere in my reception?
