Botanica Wedding Flowers Studio

l into her work and it absolutely shows. Her weddings are consistently dream weddings that any photographer would be lucky to photograph.

Giti always exceeds her couple’s expectations. Budget: I often felt there was a “Rosecliff tax” for most vendors. NOT Giti. From the first time I spoke with her I knew she was the one not only because she agreed to work with our budget, but also because she understood my vision. I’ve seen Giti’s portfolio which ranges from a celebrity budget to our modest one. Giti will make any budget look greater than it was by telling you how many extravagant arrangements you’ll need to make a huge impact and building smaller arrangements around them. My sister in law's wedding coordinator estimated that we paid twice as much as we did! Technical skill: Giti is an artist. My guests are still commenting on the flowers nearly a year later. Trustworthiness: She will deliver ON TIME AND ON BUDGET. Giti was the person I trusted the most in this process. She does not overlook details. For brides who don’t want to be as hands-on as I was; I would trust her to help you create something beautiful. She never put her vision ahead of my own and has a can-do attitude. She never told me that something couldn’t be done. All of my friends told me that despite my planning, I would get something different than what was discussed. Well everything was exactly what we discussed only far grander. Giti made one change. We were having a late night food and favors display in another room with photos of our family members, some of whom have passed away. Giti combined our large ceremony arrangements into a spectacular display. I was moved. Some of my guests upon seeing all of the photos arranged with this display of flowers were brought to tears. My family truly appreciated that moment. Personalized attention: You will not be dealing with an assistant who has to get back to you after speaking with the florist. Giti will talk with you directly. Scheduling is easy. You'll never feel rushed. She showed me a real sample arrangement before the wedding to make sure everything was perfect. Overall Experience: Fun and easy! I loved our meetings. When other wedding details are adding stress to your life, you will be able to let go and have fun. She has an incredible workshop full of arbors, vases, candelabras, and other decor. You usually have to rent these things from outside vendors. In this shop, you’ll get to walk around to make sure that the scale of each arrangement and color of every vessel is what you want. Side note: Giti has candelabras that are Rosecliff Rules approved so you don’t have to have fake candles. She is second to none. Many Newport wedding vendors are great. There were only two people we can confidently say our wedding would have been worse off had we chosen anyone else. Giti is one of them. This may sound ridiculous, but she is truly one of the people to whom I owe a debt of gratitude. She saw two young people, both in residency, trying to have a dream wedding and made it happen when others wouldn’t. If we ever move back, we’ll ask Giti to be a part of every event. I walked into this experience as someone who didn’t like flowers. Now, I have a beautiful arrangement next to me as I write this. Thank you, Giti.

r to ensure I had the best day. I am incredibly thankful that we used Botanica and would highly recommend her to all!!

mes in person and over the phone to ensure our flowers were exactly how we envisioned. Giti was always available to discuss our vision and provided incredible insight and recommendations. Giti is a true artist who completely transformed our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception at Gurney’s Newport. Everything provided by Giti including the urns, bouquets, and centerpieces were beyond perfection. Giti has an incredible attention to detail and completely elevated the room with her small touches throughout. A month after the wedding, we continue to receive compliments from our guests regarding our flowers. We cannot recommend Giti highly enough!!

r. She has a way of making everything look so whimsical and just perfect!!! We did a mix of candles, tall arrangements, low arrangements, and she even added some other cute details around the room to tie it in. She was very pleasant to work with and met with my mom and I a few times prior to the event. Giti stays to make sure everything is just as you like it and moves things around after the ceremony as needed. She even stored the left over flowers for my mom to pick up a day later. I can’t say enough good things about Giti and Botanica. She is a must have florist for your wedding!!! -Katie M

and more. Giti’s attention to detail is incredible. She is so easy to work with and made the whole process completely stress free. No one can stop talking about her stunning our flowers were. Thank you Giti! You went above and beyond and we could not have been happier.

g her expertise. Together we collectively designed the color scheme and then she made my vision a reality. I could have not asked for a better florist to make my day that much more beautiful. I highly recommend Giti. With her vision and passion you can’t go wrong!!

rilled with how it all turned out and had such a great time working with Giti. She is so collaborative and caring, has amazing attention to detail, and is also willing to get creative to stretch your budget. We received so many compliments both at the wedding and afterwards about how beautiful our florals were.

together the rustic elegance we needed for the rustic space of Newport Vineyards. Constant communication with us, including a FaceTime conversation from the flower market, are perfect examples of Giti’s drive to be perfect. Her punctual arrival on wedding day, dropping off bouquets to my bridal party & I, arbor assembly, decoration of the head farm table, and all the small details that made our day beautiful were truly remarkable. Giti and her team arranged all our beautiful flowers outdoors, an hour before ceremony time a storm rolled through Newport Vineyards and we cannot thank her and her team enough for moving all of our gorgeous arrangements indoors and creating just as beautiful indoor visual as it was outdoor prior to the rain! Her & her team made a very difficult task look effortless. Giti was gracious enough to stay late in to the night and rearrange our centerpieces for brunch the following morning -- they were the perfect compliment to our day. We will be recommending Giti to all of our friends in the area and if she is available for your wedding day, don’t hesitate to book!

s so kind, honest and understanding. Our flowers looked beautiful on our wedding day. I recommend Botanica Wedding Flowers to any couple planning their wedding!

er page, and immediately felt like we could relate to her style, use of colors and textures. I emailed Giti at nearly 11pm and heard back from her within 15 - 20 minutes. That was the basis of our communications! Her communication is top notch and truly felt like you were working with a friend who just "gets you" versus a vendor who wants to sell you on a dream. I am an event planner by profession, so it was especially important for me to find someone who was easy to work with, is creative and knowledgable about their craft and has an eye for the fine details just as much as the bigger picture. Giti was all of that and MORE... plus, she's extremely sweet! The first time we met with Giti, we showed her pictures of our vision, our outfits, color schemes and explained the look and theme we were going for as best we could. Having little knowledge of flowers and trying our best to explain that we wanted our ceremony and reception to feel "romantic, airy, yet bright, and like everyone was on a first date" - whatever that meant! She got it and nailed it to a T!!! She was great about sending inspo photos and color schemes that she thought would fall in line with our vision and was extremely flexible if there was anything we needed to change, remove or add. We truly felt like a priority and that Giti was enjoying the creative planning process with us. She had awesome ideas and even gave us tips to help us stretch our dollar more and save in other areas. On the day of the wedding, she was timely in her execution and her team did and awesome job setting up! I felt like I blinked and each ember of our wedding party (all 27 people!) had their flowers in hands and their boutonnières pinned on. Our ceremony was supposed to be outdoors, but due to the rain, we moved it inside; and it was better than we could've imagined. My husband and I walked into our ceremony and reception rooms and were overcome with elation and gratitude. Giti took the ideas in our heads and words out of our mouths; and brought it to fruition! She also arrived at the end of the evening to help distribute the centerpieces to key family members. With each wedding vendor, it was important for us to hire somehow who's work felt like a representation of who we are as individuals and as a couple. Giti heard us and understood us. She was a refreshing addition to our day and is EXTREMELY talented. A true gem!

esmaid bouquets were just as beautiful and she did an amazing job at decorating our venue. We had to shift our plans due to rain and she was able to create a fabulous arrangement for us to be married in front of. She also re purposed many of the existing flowers we had part of our decor. I would highly recommend Giti to any bride!!!

I wish I could save my bouquet forever. I would reccomend her 1,000 times over. And I know I will use her floral shop busy bee for years to come. Ten stars

ng work! I could not have imagined our flowers being any more beautiful and absolutely perfect! Her centerpiece bowls are stunning and our table flowers were out of this world beautiful and we’re soft and romantic just as I envisioned. The flowers in our church were arranged beautifully in her gold tall vases and took my breath away! Her attention to detail is unbelievable. My bouquet and the bridesmaids’ bouquet were simply stunning! They were exactly what I envisioned, and then somehow, more! Giti is the only choice when it comes to a florist! Thank you for everything, Giti!!!! - Kim

t floral options may be the best based on our discussion/inspo pictures along with being mindful of our budget. Giti was also able to give good recommendations on what would look good for different décor needs (ex. Gift table, aisle pieces, etc.). The day of florals were BEAUTIFUL and exactly what we wanted. I would definitely use Botanical Floral again!

d even after adding a few extras she worked within my budget with no issues. When we visited the reception location we agreed it needed a little something extra so she took care of ordering, delivering & returning table overlays that just brought the whole look together. I wish I could add pictures to show off her incredible work. Thank you Giti for everything!

tement with her. Giti’s studio is gorgeous and it was great to see so many samples! It made it really easy to visualize how my flowers, centerpieces and fixtures would look for our special day. Giti is incredibly talented and her attention to detail was a tremendous help as of course my mind was going in a million different directions as our wedding day rapidly approached. She was incredibly personable and I knew she would make all my floral dreams come true which coming from someone who isn’t typically huge into flowers because I have very specific style says a lot. Giti blew me away! The flowers for my wedding were exactly what I wanted and more! I couldn’t have been happier with the way they turned out—from the arbor to the bridal parties’ flowers and everything in between was absolutely breathe taking. I have never been someone that is excited to receive flowers and now I would loveee to have flowers from Giti every day! I kept my bouquet and flower crown in my hotel room after the wedding and couldn’t stop staring at them all week. Thank you Giti for making all my bohemian floral dreams a reality!

sy!

our outdoor venue, I broke into tears. I clearly never expected to be so overwhelmed by what Gigi and her staff had accomplished. In addition, all of the bouquets were exquisite and there were so many beautiful details attended to. You truly cannot hire anyone more talented.

met with me twice before we booked her and was always very responsive to our messages and questions we had. She also worked with us to stay within our budget. The bouquets and floral arrangements were beautiful, we had so many compliments from our guests. We would highly recommend using Giti at Botanica.

nd was especially popular!). Giti is a truly gifted designer and artist- her work is amazing! She was very responsive to any questions/concerns I had throughout the planning process and was very professional. I also found her prices to be reasonable considering the fullness and beauty of her bouquets and arrangments. I highly recommend Botanica Wedding Flower Studio to anyone in the market for a wedding florist!

as out of state, and she spoke repeatedly of Giti's positive attitude and unique design ideas. She is affordable and willing to work with your budget. She stayed for the entire wedding to help distribute the ceremony flowers around the venue for the cocktail hour and reception (which other florists did not want to do). Everything looked better than I pictured and I could not recommend Giti more highly!
