It’s honestly going to be so hard to put into words how grateful I am for Christine at Blumz. From our very first meeting, to the days in between and our final meeting, she was by far our favorite vendor to work with. She didn’t just care about...
our florals, but our entire wedding and us as a couple. She was so invested in making sure our vision came to life with our florals. She was incredibly thoughtful with the entire experience and we are forever grateful for our beautiful florals and what a privilege it was to work with Christine. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Blumz made my wedding absolutely beautiful! They captured exactly what I wanted for my wedding even though I may not have been the best at describing it. Christine made everything stress free. Every time I showed pictures of my wedding to peopl...
e the first thing they did was compliment the flowers! I couldn't have been happier! :)
Christine and all the staff at Blumz made me feel relaxed and confident in my flower choices. They did all the phone calls to confirm where and when to deliver all the flowers and all the arrangements were just beautiful! I couldn’t be happier
Any questions?
Highly recommend Blumz for your wedding flowers! Christine was great to work with and she and her staff went out of their way to make sure my daughter’s bouquet was everything she had envisioned.
Christine was fantastic to work with! She could read me right away and knew exactly what look I was going for. I couldn't be more please with my experience with her or the flowers that we had on our special day. Robbin (owner) even personal...

I can't say enough good things about Christine. She's so personable, and she really knows what she's doing and seems to genuinely care about her clients. She understood just what we were going for, and she made it come to life within our budget...

Blumz knocked it out of the park for our wedding florals. We got bouquets, boutonnieres, and wedding aisle decor. Everything was beautiful and fresh, arrived on time, and somehow exactly what I pictured without doing a trial. Christine was so k...

I have nothing but kind words to say about Christine and the entire team at Blumz. Christine was wonderful and unbelievably easy to talk to! Blumz was able to create my dream bouquet even though I had been warned that things may not be able to ...
be exact due to shortages from COVID. I received so many compliments on my bouquet and am beyond happy with how it turned out. I am so thankful for Christine and all of the effort she puts in with her clients and for the entire team at Blumz for going above and beyond for my big day.
We decided to use Blumz for our wedding flowers because our wedding venue recommended them and they were close by so it was convenient. I had a great experience working with Christine to plan my flowers. She was very detailed and made sure to w...
ork within my budget. I was excited to see my wedding flowers since she made me feel at ease. However, we had a few blunders on my wedding day. I ordered an extra boutonnière for my usher/greeter last minute which they said they could add on but it never showed up. Also, I told Christine we could add a hint of light blush pink as an accent color to the flowers. She talked me out of it since she said pinks can come in all sorts of shades and it might throw things off. I agreed and said no pink. On the day of, all of our bud vase flowers were dark pink. I was so upset. I went to the store to talk about my concerns after the wedding and all the owner did was give me the cash tip I gave him for delivering the flowers back. He was not very apologetic. While my main bouquets and bigger centerpieces were beautiful and what I wanted, I feel like they dropped the ball on the bud vase flowers (which comprised half of my tables!)
Christine was great with us. She knew exactly what we wanted and made it true. She was always communicating with us and everything went super smoothly. We will recommend Blumz for sure!
Christine and Robyn at Blumz were such a pleasure to work with for my daughters wedding. Due to COVID, many changes, including dates took place for my daughter's shower and wedding. Christine communicated with me throughout the whole process an...
d was eager to work with our family through all the changes. When it was all said and done, the floral arrangements were beautiful and everything turned out better than we could have dreamed of. I have already booked Christine for my next event. I have 5 daughter and I see Chrsitine and I working together on a regular basis in the future. Blumz made me feel like family and exceeded my expectation on communication, which is very important to me!
I used Blumz for my wedding and I couldn’t be happier with my experience! Christine was so helpful & wonderful to work with. I would 100% recommend. You will not be disappointed!
Honestly, I have not met a better vendor than Christine. She was AMAZING! So down to earth, easy to talk with, she created my dream bouquet! She knew actually what I wanted. She was very much on top of things and I felt very comfortable with he...

As any bride, family member of a bride, or friend of a bride is aware... wedding planning has its ups and its downs. Blumz was absolutely one of my high points through my planning. Christine in particular was beyond helpful. After running into ...
some snafoos in other areas of my planning, I turned to Christine for advice. Both Christine and Blumz are involved, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful though a process that most people do not deal with on a regular basis (large scale event planning). I would go back to Blumz in a heart beat for ANY of my floral needs... also, the shop has SUPER cute decorations and inspiration!!!!
Amazing to work with Christine (a fellow boxer-dog lover) for our wedding day. She was great to communicate and trusted them to make decisions I wasn’t too picky about. The end product was gorgeous and lasted a while after the event day!
The on...
ly complaint I would have is that there was some issue with sending my father to their store for pick up. He was told they didn’t have our flowers and had to call me about it. Before I could say anything, they realized the mistake and everything was fine.
Would recommend! Great communication (at least with Christine), high quality and beautiful flowers!
Christine and her team at Blumz were absolutely incredible! After we changed our wedding venue due to COVID and I decided to make some major changes to our florals, Christine helped to make my vision come to life with our new venue. Everything ...
couldn’t have turned out more perfect- the installations, bouquets, and centerpieces were exactly what I had dreamed of! Thank you again for helping our dream wedding come to life! ☺️
I cannot recommend Blumz enough! As a wedding planner, I always appreciate good communication skills, great customer service and thoroughness regarding event details, which they have in abundance! Christine was great to work with through my cli...
ent's original quoting process and then again as we pivoted their vision due to a venue change. She had creative ideas and was knowledgeable about how to present them. On the day of the event, the owners of Blumz, Robbin and Jerome, really transformed the tent to fulfill the client's vision, everything looked so beautiful! I can't wait to work with them again in the future!
FIVE STARS ARE NOT ENOUGH!! I so wish that I could post photos of the floral arrangements, decor and bouquet created for my wedding by the team at Blumz. They were absolutely BREATHTAKING! Our wedding was a small one (about 12 people) but the f...
lowers created an environment that was festive and elegant, and far exceeded my expectations. Giving them a color idea and a couple of favorite flowers, and then allowing them to just create was the best gift I could have given myself. BLUMZ IS AMAZING!!
Christine from Blumz has been my go-to florist for almost six years now. With COVID19, we were unsure if we were going to be able to have our wedding. When we got the okay from our venue, I contacted her to see if she could do our flowers on su...
ch short notice. She had a quote prepared for me two days later. My flowers were exactly what I had hoped for. I will continue to give Blumz my business because of Christine and the rest of the staff. Thank you so much for helping make our day beautiful!!
Blumz made our wedding day very special! The bouquets were everything I wanted and more! We had to cancel our reception due to COVID but were able to get married and have a small gathering. The perfect bouquet made me feel like my day was compl...
ete, despite all the other changes that we had to make to our wedding due to COVID. Blumz also worked with us last minute to add a third delivery location. Ana and Rochelle were so helpful and quick to respond! I would recommend Blumz without hesitation and I will continue to use them for all my flower needs! Thank you Blumz!
Christine was INCREDIBLE to work with. She made my day so easy and stress-free by being available to come and set up the flower decorations for me on the day of my wedding. I would recommend Blumz to everyone!!
Christine did an AMAZING job with my bridal bouquet and the rest of my wedding flowers! I had no idea what I wanted, but I sent her pictures from Pinterest of beautiful arrangements and she sent me a list of every single flower that went into m...
y bouquet and the rest. I saw the arrangement on my wedding day and I couldn’t have asked for anything more beautiful! Thank you again! It made my day that much more wonderful!
Blumz was a dream to work with! I had a budget that I wanted to stay within and their staff worked with me and gave me helpful advice and ideas. They are hands down, the best!
We absolutely loved our flowers for the wedding! I myself am not very educated in flowers and which are what but the crew here took their time in helping me pick out the perfect flowers for my bouquet, the bridesmaids bouquets, mothers corsages...
, and the boutonnières for the men. I couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful bouquet. The team was awesome to work with and accommodated everything I needed while staying in my budget (which is a big thing for brides). Thank you!
I had a wonderful experience working with Christine & Robbin at Blumz for my Wedding Bouquets & Boutonnieres. Initially, Christine sent over a detailed planning document to get a sense of exactly what I wanted (colors, pictures, flower types, s...
tyle, etc.) After that, I received a quote, and put down a deposit, and Blumz took care of the rest! Christine was there throughout the process for any questions I had, and we had a final meeting a few weeks before the wedding to go over specifics. Robbin did an absolutely amazing job with my bouquets, my bridesmaids bouquets, as well as the groom & groomsmen's boutonnieres. With little direction from me, the color and style of each and every flower was beautifully done. My bride's bouquet was stunning, and the bridesmaid's bouquets were smaller, but matched and complemented mine beautifully. I would highly recommend Blumz for any of your floral needs. You will always be treated kindly, responded to quickly, and treated like you're important no matter the size of your order.
I cannot recommend Blumz enough. We went with this company for both our floral and decor for our wedding and turned out more beautiful then I could have imagined. Also Christine was so amazing to work with. They did all the communicating with o...

I am so pleased with their service and my flowers!
Blumz was absolutely amazing to work with! Christine went above and beyond to make sure I felt advocated for on our wedding day and make sure my vision came to life. They took a picture in my head and exceeded my expectations. From our bouquets...
to our centerpieces- everything was so beautiful. We got numerous compliments on our florals and centerpieces. On the day of the wedding the owners themselves came to set up and helped to improvise when we were unsure what to do with a wedding arch. They were always so kind and helpful, offering their suggestions and input, and giving me peace of mind about my choices and desires. They were timely with setting up and delivering all our day-of florals and centerpieces and helped alleviate the day-of-wedding stresses. They kept in touch throughout the planning process and were just wonderful to work with- especially Christine- can't say enough good things about her & the company!
Blumz did our boutonnieres and they turned out great! We wanted something a bit nontraditional and they worked with me to figure it out. They turned out beautiful. Highly recommend!

Meredith, thank you so much for your kind review! We loved getting creative with your boutonnieres and making your vision come to life. We hope you'll call us to collaborate again!

We worked with Blumz for our daughter's wedding at the Diamond Center in Novi on 6/15/19 and we were delighted with the results. Christine was very easy to work with, helpful and responsive throughout the whole process, working with us to find ...
just the right flowers to fit the bride's vision. The bouquets were beautiful, young and fresh looking, and the reception centerpieces were elegant. Set up and take down were seamless. We were working with a budget and I felt that we got a great look for the price. I definitely recommend Blumz!
We absolutely loved working with Lauri from Blumz. She really understood my design dreams and turned them into a reality. From the moment we connected to seeing it all come to life - I couldn't have been happier with how beautiful my floral arr...
angements were and how lovely and sentimental my bouquet was to me. Lauri created the perfect floral recipes that achieved an effortless and romantic elegance for our wedding.
We were so happy with our flowers. We had our consult in the ferndale location, which was the coolest place. Our consultant was very down to earth and grasped every idea we had and our flowers turned out more beautiful then I imagined. We used ...
half real and half silk flowers and they managed to manipulate the colors to match our color scheme since the flowers we wanted were not in season. We were able to use our own vases which helped save money. Since we used the silk flowers mostly in my bouquet, I am now able to keep it forever. The delivery was super fast and simple the time of our wedding, everything just felt put together and very organized. Thank you Blumz! It's been since October we had our wedding and people are still talking about how lovely the flowers were.
I could not get over how confident Christine made me feel about how the flowers would turn out on our wedding day. She went over every detail, and I knew she’d do amazing - but I wasn’t prepared for how beautiful the flowers would actually be. ...
They looked gorgeous in person, and the colours in the photo pop so well. It was exactly what I wanted. I couldn’t recommend them higher!
Christine is so wonderful to work with! She listens to what you want and did a phenomenal job with all of our floral for the day! She is kind and helpful and will make you feel at ease if you’re feeling overwhelmed! I loved my flowers and bouti...

If I could give a 10 ⭐️ review, I would!
Working with Christine with Blumz was the best part of my wedding planning- from our first meeting to the visit to the last! She was knowledgeable, fun, full of ideas, patient with my millions of questi...
ons (even ones that had nothing to do with flowers) and totally respectful of my budget (no matter how many times it changed).
The flowers were more beautiful than I imagined (tear) and the tables at the ceremony were perfect. Countless people came to me that day and in the following days to ask me who did the flowers and centerpieces. They said it was the most beautiful mix of mildly seasonal/rustic, romantic and elegant! Christine nailed it completely!
I will use Christine and Blumz for any and all events! I already have a couple in mind!

Blumz did our wedding flowers June 30, 2018. We had floral bridesmaid dresses, and Christa and Jerry were able to match their bouquets perfectly! Guests commented all night how much they loved our bouquets and dresses.
I had an amazing experience with a blumz. They were my go to since day 1 of wedding planning. Always at the ready, and really knowledgeable. The floral at my wedding this past weekend couldn’t have been more perfect, from my head piece, to my b...
ouquet, to the birch archway. Just so simply boho chic. I would 100% reccomend blumz to anyone seeking a florist.
Blumz was an absolute pleasure to work with. Initially I met with Christa to discuss my vision. She spent so much time with me and was such a huge help. She asked all the questions I hadn’t considered. My bouquet turned out absolutely beautiful...
it was exactly what I imagined and was one of my favorite parts of the whole day! Blumz also made a gorgeous garland of eucalyptus to hang from the pergola where we were married. I was able to bypass the delivery fee by having a family member pick up the flowers the day of. Blumz was super easy to work with and does an excellent job! Five stars!
Blumz was amazing to work with! I live in England and all my communication with Blumz had to be done via email. I was able to send photos, but unfortunately I was not able to visit the store before the wedding. I was a little nervous as I had j...

ng together about a month before the wedding. Christine did an amazing job of handling the dynamics of multiple opinions and budget constraints.
When the day of my wedding came and Blumz delivered and set up the flowers all i can say is *wow* - i was left completely speechless by the beauty of my flowers. They literally took my breath away. The bouquets, crowns, arbor decor, and everything else were so bright and colorful, full of life, and just more than i ever expected. I got nonstop compliments and wish i could post pictures with this review to show them off!

send you 100 hugs, thanks so much for this awesome feedback! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness and good health!
Absolutely gorgeous flowers! I live in Ferndale, but our wedding was in Freeland. I wanted to go with Blumz because they are so well-known and trusted here in Ferndale - they did not disappoint! We went with simple wedding flowers, bouquets, co...
rsages, boutonnieres, and hydrangea centerpieces with gold leaves. Absolutely stunning, fresh, and the flowers lasted well after the wedding! The flowers arrived on time, in vases, and beautifully wrapped. Christa was so patient and great to work with, and she helped work within my budget to create the floral vision of my Pinterest dreams. Cannot thank Blumz enough for delivering so far from Ferndale, but keeping everything so fresh and gorgeous!

wish you and your partner a lifetime of happiness!
I cannot thank Blumz (Ferndale) enough for the work they did to make sure our wedding day was perfect! My initial consultation was with Megan, and she understood my vision instantly, offering suggestions while still listening to what I wanted. ...
Before she went on maternity leave, she contacted me to have a meeting to show me some mock-ups and to introduce me to Christine, who would be taking over. Christine was amazing to work with! She responded to my emails in less than 24 hours, she communicated with my church and my venue to make sure every detail was perfect, and she even offered to set up some additional signage for us so I wouldn’t have to assign a family member to do it. The flowers themselves on the day of the wedding were stunning! The bouquets were so full and beautiful (especially my bridal bouquet), and the arrangements for the tables were elegant and tasteful. The guests raved about the flowers, and I even had family members ask if they could take arrangements home at the end of the night. I am thrilled that I went with Blumz for my wedding day - I will continue to recommend them to my friends and family! Blumz far surpurpassed my expectations in every aspect.

Hey Stephanie, thanks so much for letting us be part of your big day. It means a lot that you were happy with our services and that you took the time to write such a nice review. We always try to make sure that everyone of brides knows how spe...
cial they are to us. We wish you many many many years of happiness.
I was extremely disappointed with my experience with Blumz. They had just opened a new location close to me and I was excited to use a local business. I only used them for my bouquets and boutiners, thankfully. The process seemed easy and Chris...
ta was quick to respond to my questions and changes. But when the day rolled around and I saw my final product my heart sank. I had asked for white and burgundy/maroon and instead I got bright red. My mom ended up having to cut flowers out of all of the bouquets because they looked so bad.
On top of that, a little over 2 months before the big day I made a change with the groommans boutonnieres and received an updated proposal, all seemed good. When I saw my groommans the day of with them on, it wasn’t what I had updated to but the original one that I did not want any more. But I couldn’t do anything at that point so it is what it is
I guess if anything’s going to go wrong I’d rather have it be something simple like this but it still sucked, flowers aren’t cheap and I was at least expecting what I had requested. I’m hoping this was a fluke!
Response from the Vendor on 07/10/2018
Hello Ashley,
It is with great disappointment that we are just now finding out that you were not totally pleased with the flowers for your wedding. As you can imagine, especially with being new to that area, we were hoping to knock it out of t...
he park for you. We truly wish we had known a bit sooner so that we could have already addressed this with you directly. We are sure that you read all of our other reviews and with over 100 reviews on The Knot, we have a 5 star rating. We can assure you that this was indeed as you said, a fluke!! However, with all of this said, it doesn't address the fact that you were not pleased with the florals you received. To address the color of the ranunculus, in reality, maroon/burgundy/wine can all be very subjective and the flowers can even vary naturally in tone even in the same bunch of 10 stems. When these came in, we actually even applied additional floral tint to them to get them as close as physically possible to the color you were wanting. Obviously, it wasn't close enough though. The boutonnieres were a different matter. The information regarding the change in the type of flower and style were transposed on the form and unfortunately it didn't carry over to the work sheet. Christa being relatively new to our staff, was extremely saddened to find out this mistake. We are very pleased that your overall experience with her was, however, positive. We apologize for this experience and regret any disappointment created by our less than stellar performance . In an effort to try to make amends, Christa will be contacting you to offer a personal note of apology as well as a monetary remuneration for the flowers in question. Your comments and review will be put to good use in making sure this doesn't happen again.
We appreciate your honesty and hope that you will give us the opportunity in the future to prove to you that yes, this was a fluke and not a normal occurrence at Blumz. We wish you many, many happy years of marriage.
The Staff of Blumz, Holly, Detroit and Ferndale
Blumz did an awesome job with our wedding. Christine was very accommodating, listened to what we wanted and made it all happen beyond our expectations. The staff were great and the arrangements made the place pop!

Thanks for the awesome review Brittany!
Blumz was an AMAZING vendor to work with. I was a bride without a vision and upon showing them a few pictures I found on Pinterest, they built a wedding set up that was drop dead gorgeous, elegant, and timeless. They supplied our linens, ligh...
ts, and flowers and having this be a “one-stop-shop” in this regard made things SO EASY the day of; it was so convenient having to work with only one person for all of these things. My photographer said my bouquet was the most beautiful she had seen, and I received many compliments from other guests on the flowers and décor. Christine, who was my coordinator from Blumz, helped to ensure that the day went smoothly and beautifully and that I had nothing to worry about, which she did flawlessly. I can’t say enough how thankful I am for how easy they made the entire process, with a result that I couldn’t have dreamt to be more perfect.

ous because they did not put together a bouquet for me to see at our meeting, but that wasn't a problem at all because our flower turned out AMAZING!!! We wanted wintery bouquets and boutonnieres without being rustic - I didn't know what that would even look like, but Blumz put together exactly what I wanted. I didn't see my flowers until about 10 minutes before I walked down the aisle and I was blown away. Affordable, amazing artistry, insanely nice - I would absolutely recommend Blumz to anyone and everyone!

Hey Leigh, thanks for this review, hope you are both doing well!
Christine from Blumz is just amazing! Being a fellow vendor (event planner) it is great to have people in the industry that can really come through for you and your clients! With the bride being from out of state having Christine work so closel...

I did not care about flowers when I was planning. I honestly only went looking for florists because my fiance made me. I met with a few florists and I liked Blumz because Megan understood that I did not want to spend a large sum of money and c...
atered to that in my quote without trying to talk me out of flowers I knew I wanted. Instead of trying to convince me that I wanted carnations in my bouquet (my least favorite flower) because I didn't want to spend a ton of cash, she found a way to give me what I wanted for a completely reasonable price. She even listened to me and made my bouquet smaller than originally quoted to get my bridal bouquet under $200.
When I saw my flowers they took my breath away. I didn't even want flowers and they were one of my favorite things about the wedding. I couldn't even throw them away and am currently drying my bouquet.

I can't say enough good things about Blumz. From day one I worked with Megan and she was nothing but exceptional. She helped me stay within my budget and when the flowers showed up on the wedding day they were an absolute dream, exactly what I ...

Hello Janice! Thanks for taking the time to leave us such a nice review. WE were glad to be there when you needed us. Wishing you a lifetime of good health and happiness!
Blumz did an amazing job with all of the flowers and arrangements for our wedding. We knew we wanted to do a 1920s/Gatsby themed wedding and Blumz helped us stay true to that theme. Megan is amazing and was there for us every step of the way! S...
he really assisted in bringing our 20s vision to life. Not only did they deliver beautiful bouquets, corsages, and centerpieces but they also went above and beyond helping with little touches here and there.

Hello Alyssa! Thanks so much for giving us the chance to do the decor for such a cool wedding. This one was really fun to put together! Sending you love and wishing you a lifetime of happiness and good heath!
We really loved our arrangements from Blumz. Megan was great to work with. She made sure everything looked just as we wanted for our wedding.
Response from the Vendor on 07/25/2017
We're so glad that you were happy with our work! We agree Megan is great! We will let her know what you said! Congrats and cheers!
We loved Blumz! They made wonderful bouquets, centerpieces, and bouttonieres for our wedding. We wanted a more rustic and natural flower arrangements and they did not disappoint. I highly recommend them!

We could not have asked for a more fairytale wedding and Blumz by JR Designs was a HUGE part of this. Just to be clear, this is coming from the groom and I had to create a Knot account just so I could give Blumz 5 stars!! Jerome and Robbin are ...
AMAZING! They are so professional and more importantly, they are extremely caring! They made us feel like part of their family, a feeling we still feel today (wedding date was 5/21/16). Again, I'm only the groom, but everything was perfect. To this day, every picture my wife sees follows with a comment on how beautiful the flowers were. As we all know "Happy wife = happy life". Honestly, Blumz is perfect! They will not disappoint!

e day. Walking into our ballroom, my husband and I couldn't have been happier. The chairs, linen, centerpieces, floral, even the tabletop lighting were all exactly how we imagined. I cannot be more appreciative of this company making our day as easy as possible. I would definitely recommend using Blumz and they can coordinate every detail that you need without having to work through 10 different vendors. This 'one stop shop' is AMAZING!!!
I was very disappointed in my floral decor and my overall experience with Blumz. To begin, I was initially scheduled to meet with Megan for a mock up which she completely forgot about. She created something on the fly, which was decent but obvi...
ously needed work. During our meeting I said I would like to add the $5 table numbers and I assumed she added this as we discussed (I should have checked this when I got my estimates instead of trusting that she would just follow thorough). She told me she would later send me photos of the mock up since she forgot about the appointment. When I received the photos I was VERY disappointed and felt she completely lost sight of my vision. She then sent me photos of the flowers she would use instead but I never got to see what how the centerpieces would actually look. When I saw them in person I was yet again extremely unhappy. Not with the actual flowers but with how minimal they were and particularly with the garland. The garland was $80 per table and was very very thin and there were only few flowers in between. According to Blumz it was 4 feet but in reality it was nowhere near 4 feet. Like I said, it didn't even stretch across the table. To spend nearly $3000 on centerpieces this was an incredibly bad experience and I would NEVER go with this company again. I literally had one large centerpiece and again it was underwhelming. I spoke with several other companies who I should have gone with in the first place who would have given me several large centerpieces and much better flowers for the same price.

I was so happy to have Blumz provided us a beautiful flowers. The staff are very helpful and professional. Megan was so nice and easy to work with. We are so blessed to have her as event consultant.
We used Blumz for invitations, flowers, graphics and string lighting. The invitations and string lighting were both perfect...the flowers in the ceremony were very pretty, not what I asked for, but still very beautiful. The centerpieces and r...
unner in our reception were beautiful. Unfortunately, we were supposed to have petals running up and down the aisle for the ceremony, and those were too wilted and brown to use. They also forgot some of the flowers we had ordered and had to come back and place those on our gift table. Unfortunately, the graphics were horrible, I would not recommend them for graphics in any way other than invitations. They were not what I wanted nor what I approved in the mock-up meeting. The staff is very nice to work with, and our initial planner quit right in the middle of the planning process, so I'm sure some things got lost in the shuffle as they only had one planner during high wedding season. They did send a thank you card with a $25 gift card to use at Blumz right after our wedding, but I wish they had asked how things went, and reimbursed us for the petals. We spent between $8000-$10,000 here.
The staff here is easy to work with and they were genuinely excited and happy for our big day when I came to pick up my flowers. They were very proud of their work and it showed because the flowers were beautiful. Our wedding was a 95 degree da...
y and the flowers held up perfectly. We also used Blumz for our pipe and drape. It looked beautiful and added so much to our venue. Well worth it!
STAY AWAY from this vendor. I worked with Megan there and my experience was horrific. For people that don't want to read this entire post here is the issue - these people do not honor a contract. I did not like the mock up flowers as it wasn't ...
even close to what I asked for and 30 days before my wedding they told me that they aren't able to do my wedding and gave me my money back. YES. That happened. They are horrifically unprofessional and the flower arrangements are a joke. To start, the flowers in the mock up were not even in the correct vase. Not hard to remember which vase to put the flowers in. For the price I was paying the amount of flowers in the arrangement was a joke. I called Jerome (the owner) to complain . He told me he would call me back and he didnt even honor that statement. He had Megan call me back to tell me they cant meet my standards and to go away. They did not care my wedding was in 30 days or we had a contract. I luckily found another florist that felt bad for me and took my wedding. I sent them pictures of the mock up from Blumz and they laughed. It was a joke of the store for weeks. STAY AWAY FROM THIS VENDOR. You can get better flowers for the same price at another vendor. Trust me, Blumz is horrific and shouldn't be in the wedding business.
Response from the Vendor on 08/18/2016
Hello,
We at Blumz are very sorry you have such a low opinion of us when so many other brides experiences differ greatly. While our view of how everything transpired is somewhat different from the one you have outlined here, our decision to g...
ive you a FULL and complete refund was in the best interest of all. This was a very difficult decision considering the amount of time, energy and effort that was expended to try to "get it right", but we simply felt that we could not meet your demands. As a professional florist with many years experience and hundreds of happy brides, the last thing we ever want to do on a wedding day is deliver flowers that we feel our brides will not love. We are very pleased that you found a vendor that was able to meet your needs. Wishing you many happy years, The Blumz Staff.
Everyone at Blumz was responsive and friendly. They listened to what I wanted and obliged. However, it did kind of feel like I was one of a million brides on an assembaly line. (To be fair I did get married during peak wedding time) The flowers...
were good, not great and my order was very simple. They didn't make me or my wedding feel "special".

were beautiful and exceeded our expectations. We gave the team at Blumz very little guidance in flower selection, indicating solely that wanted to use in season flowers and our color schemes, and somehow they were able to arrange exactly what we were looking for. Worth the value by far.
Working with Pam was amazing! The Bouquet was perfect and everything was exactly how I wanted it. They are great to work!!!

We needed drop a line to express how Blumz made our shoot for the The Rachael Ray Show a beautifully spectacular one! Rachael Ray staffers have been singing this companies praises! All the way up the chain people are complimenting this team and...
company.
We only had a few days to plan and what this company did to highlight our special episode. From the smallest napkin treatment, to the loan of burlap and wood, to the extra mile they spent creating pedestal pieces and table arrangements, was a nod to the expertise that this company clearly radiates.
Check out the The Rachael Ray Show on November 25th to see how Blumz made this special thanksgiving episode a truly beautiful one.
Next time we are in Detroit, we will surely book Blumz!

We had the best experience in working with BLUMZ for our recent wedding. Everything from start to finish was amazing, and we felt confident that we were being guided in the right direction for our vision. Everyone was very helpful, and any ques...
tion that we had was answered promptly. Our coordinator was very friendly, organized, helpful, and knowledgeable, and she truly worked hard to make our florals everything we hoped for on the wedding day. We ordered arbor flowers, bouquets, centerpieces and boutonnieres. Setup and delivery were perfect. I couldn't have asked for anything more! One thing with weddings is that there is SO much to coordinate and organize. With BLUMZ it was easy, and I was confident about everything. I would 100% recommend them, and will happily and most definitely go back for any of our upcoming floral needs.
I chose to go with Blumz based on a referral and I was definitely not disappointed! Was it pricey? Yes, but it was also absolutely beautiful! Jerome was a pleasure to work with - I think he understood the look I wanted better than I did! Jerome...
and his team gave me the wedding of my dreams - simple, elegant and modern!

I could not be more pleased with our experience with Blumz. I knew I wanted Autumnal colors and sunflowers, but was otherwise fairly clueless about the world of flowers. I had a meeting at their shop, and was very impressed by their ideas for...
our event. When we needed to cut costs, they were able to make subtle alterations to be more budget-friendly but still deliver lovely arrangements. The final product - both ceremony and reception space - was beautiful.
Our first proposal came back looking entirely different from what I had envisioned and was twice what my budget allowed. However, the staff worked with us back and forth until we found a plan that we loved. They were very good at communicating ...
and meeting our needs in terms of meetings and pick up times. We made our own centerpieces and they took great care of them and delivered them for us the day of the wedding. We did think that Blumz was a little bit expensive for all white flowers ($1500 worth of simple arrangements fit into one garbage bag at the end of the night), but we were very happy that we didn't have to worry about a thing. Overall, I would go to Blumz again.
I was really happy with how my flowers and table decor turned out for my wedding. Michelle and Alexis were both very helpful. Blumz worked with my budget and had an amazing intake on my vision for my arrangements. I would highly recommend Blumz...
to any future brides!
I worked with Rochelle from Blumz for my wedding in May and I highly recommend her and the whole team. I had a pretty specific image in my head of what I wanted my ceremony to look like and she read my mind. They took care of chairs, the arch, ...
the tent for my musicians (it was an outdoor event), and of course the flowers. When I showed up at the ceremony site I was literally speechless. Everything was just gorgeous and just the way I wanted it. I definitely recommend Blumz to any bride.
I had my initial consultation with Pam and I thought we were on the same page to create centerpieces that would be nice without breaking the bank. I received the contract, signed, and placed my deposit. We were making a few changes to our color...
s and Pam offered to mock up some options for me to look at. We set an appointment, but when I arrived there were none of the options available to see that we had discussed. The centerpieces they had created looked cheap and were very underwhelming, especially for the price that we agreed on. I went home incredibly disappointed with what I was shown and that I hadn't been provided the options that we talked about. The combination of miscommunication, lack of value for services provided and simply not doing what was communicated to me has lead me to cancel my contract with them and find someone else. If I can't trust them to provide good service during a consultation, how can I for the day of my wedding?
