If I could give Claus and the flowers he put together for my wedding a million stars , I would!! The floral arrangements absolutely exceeded my expectations. My cascade bouquet was stunning as were the girls’ bouquets, the centerpieces and the flowers for the gazebo! Not only was Claus’s work outstanding, Claus was a true pleasure to work with every step of the way.
My Fiancé and I with Claus the owner of Brandywine Floral Design for our flowers and he truly went above and beyond every step of the way. We could not be any happier with the way our bouquets, centerpieces and various other floral arrangements turned out. From day one, he took the time to find out what we really wanted, our budget, and how to accomplish that within our budget. The one thing I was truly amazed about is he even remember me from my sister wedding back in July 2016. As soon as I said my maiden name is started to explain my sister’s flowers and everything. Even when I could not explain to Claus on what I exactly wanted for our centerpieces and bouquets, I just showed him some photos and the next time I came in he did everything I envisioned and more. He knew we had to stay within our budget, and he was still able to get us everything we wanted. Most florist vendors would have charged us an arm and a leg to get everything we got at our wedding. All I can say is AMAZING AND BEAUTIFUL!!! He's very charming and beyond honestly and that’s what I loved about working with him, you can tell he loves what he does, and you can see that in the flower arrangements. It was an absolute pleasure working with Claus, his life experiences and stories are enough to put any frazzled bride at ease. Would definitely recommend Brandywine Floral Design!!!!!
Claus and Brandywine were amazing to work with and the flowers for my wedding were perfect! I was a very stressed out bride but my bouquets and centerpieces were one thing I didn't stress about. I just told Claus what kind of arrangements I liked and didn't like and just trusted him to put everything together...and I was not disappointed. Everything was perfect and my meetings and discussions with him were the least stressful of my wedding planning process. Claus is very talented and knows what he's doing! I recommend Brandywine for your wedding or any event!!
Claus completely exceeded my expectations with all of the florals for my wedding! And he was extremely accommodating and did everything we could want or need right until the very end. I was absolutely in love with my bouquet, the bridesmaid bouquets, the centerpieces, just everything. On top of the beautiful flowers, Claus was such a pleasure to work with and made the entire experience one I will never forget. I hope to be able to work with Brandywine Floral Design again for future events! Thank you for everything, Claus! Mike and I appreciate you, your hard work, and dedication!
The flowers at my wedding were breathtaking- Claus went above and beyond! Claus really brought my rustic, slightly boho vision to life, as soon as I walked into the venue on the day of my eyes just lit up at how BEAUTIFUL the flowers were! Cannot thank him enough.
I loved the flowers Claus prepared for my wedding and I don’t even like flowers all that much in the first place, so that’s saying something! I had no idea what I wanted and gave some vague ideas and a couple photos and they came out amazing. People are still asking me to send them photos of my bouquet to send to their bride-to-be friends. Very easy to communicate with, brought a sample centerpiece to our tasting at the venue - highly recommend!
Claus was just simply the best! He was so easy to work with, very responsive and even met us at our hall months before the wedding to do a mock-up of our centerpieces. We were so happy with how everything came out, the flowers were stunning and we got so many compliments, thank you Claus for everything!
From the moment that we met Claus, we knew that he would be the perfect person to handle the decor for our January 2020 winter wedding at the Park Chateau. Claus is not only professional in his approach (he will work wonders with your budget) to his work but, he is easygoing and so much fun to work with (what a pleasure to work with someone with so much personality!) We did not have a bridal party and wanted very simple, yet elegant arrangements and he did not disappoint! Where some vendors wanted to charge us to create extra arrangements for the chapel, Claus suggested that we use a few arrangements in the chapel which would then be transferred to the ballroom after the ceremony. The ballroom looked amazing that day (sophisticated and romantic - everything white and cream colored) and my bouquet was the perfect arrangement of roses, hydrangeas and eucalyptus. On the day of the wedding, I did not have to worry about flowers at all as everything was at the Park Chateau on time! Our centerpieces were such a hit that everyone asked us if they could take a few home!
Claus was highly recommended to us and it was a huge disappointment in product, professionalism, and pricing. We trusted him and truly appreciated his craftsmanship. We met with him several times for several hours, always leaving feeling confident about the order.
I wanted a draping bouquet like my mother had on her wedding day and I was VERY clear about that. My bridesmaids were to have smaller draping bouquets and my flower girl just a basket of winter greens. I wanted very little to no flowers at my “winter” wedding. We went over this information at least 3 times, possibly more.
The morning of my wedding my bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, and flower girl arrangement were delivered and every single one of them was wrong. All of the bouquets were normal, no draping, sticking straight up. My flower girl basket was white roses tied together - no greens in sight. And when I got to my bouquet, I pulled it out and it was not draping AT ALL. The arrangement of greens were beautiful but not the look I wanted.
I was in tears that morning with a face full of makeup as my photographer was knocking on my door. Claus came back to “fix” my bouquet to make it drape but when he was finished with it, it looked more like a huge branch shoved in where it did not belong and it was sticking out. I was a mess and in the middle of taking pictures without a bouquet looking as if I just cried my eyes out.
Then I get to the venue and the greenery that was supposed to be on the pergola was also wrong. It was supposed to go across the entire face of the pergola but he only hung 2 small corner parts on the ends and he hung them CROOKED!
The center pieces were beautiful but the most important part of the day for me was my bouquet to look like my mothers bouquet had looked on her wedding day and I was very disappointed he didn’t do that for me. That was the only thing I truly wanted out of the florist and he let me down.
We called him 2 days after the wedding to let him know that we were disappointed with his work and about the fact that he never came back to disassemble the pergola to bring those arrangements inside to add to the room. We did not think his work was worth the amount of money we paid.
He said he didn’t think he did anything wrong and that he did what he was supposed to do. Never even apologized to us. For the amount of money we paid, we expected better from him.
Overpriced, unethical, & unprofessional. Take your business elsewhere.
Claus was amazing from day 1. After our initial meeting with him, we knew we were gonna book him. He knew exactly what I was looking for and delivered everything on point. He even came to our tasting which was a HUGE plus because we got to see a little preview of what our centerpiece would look like. Definitely would recommend him for any future brides.
We used brandywine florists for our wedding. We did not have a bridal party so we needed very minimal items (1 bouquet, 7 boutonnieres, 7 corsages, flowers for the cake, 2 pieces for the archway). Claus did an amazing job and was super easy to work with. We would definitely recommend him.
Book your wedding with Brandywine Floral Design NOW. My family and I absolutely loved working with Claus to create the most beautiful, classy, and timeless arrangements for my wedding in March at Park Chateau. From the minute we met Claus, he felt like family. He was warm, friendly, and the pure love for his job and flowers is evident. Throughout my year and a half of planning, he answered all of my emails and questions promptly and happily. He told us that we could stop in whenever we wanted to drop off color swatches, pictures, or to just chat. When I first visited, I had no idea what kind of arrangements I wanted. I knew that I wanted my bouquets unstructured, and I knew the colors of my bridesmaids’ dresses- that’s it. Claus walked me through the entire process and showed me countless pictures of different centerpieces and bouquets. He even showed me pictures of flowers at my actual venue so I could get a better feel of what I could do there. I decided to leave the decisions to him. His artistic eye was right on point. He knew what I liked even better than I did!! As for the guys, he brought extra boutonnieres, so we could change them out when they looked worn. They matched the girls’ bouquets perfectly. My mother’s, mother-in-law’s, and grandmothers’ corsages were placed on bracelets that we picked out. He has beautiful ones to choose from. They loved that they were on bracelets instead of the typical tight elastic band. We rented lanterns for the chapel on site. Claus came and set everything up himself. After the ceremony, he came back and moved all of the lanterns into the ballroom and decorated our sweetheart table. Our low and high centerpieces were absolutely breathtaking, and our guests even got to take them home at the end of the night. They lasted all week long! I can’t forget about our amazing arrangement of fresh flowers on our cake! Claus made us a cake topper of flowers that then cascaded down our entire four tiered cake. It was breathtaking. The only regret I have was that I didn’t get to give Claus a great big hug that night and thank him personally. Thank you Claus for your talent, attention to detail, artistic eye, and for making this part of our planning the least stressful part. You’re the best!!
We used Brandywine for our November 2018 wedding and we were very pleased. The flowers were beautiful and Claus & team captured our autumn theme perfectly. Their prices are extremely reasonable and affordable. Very professional and everything arrived on time! Would highly recommend!
Claus is so well articulate in his floral arrangements lingo, it's romantic to hear him saying all the flower names and their complimentary palettes when we had out meetings. Without a doubt, he's a pro in what he does. He's meticulous in his work, and definitely has wit and charm to his personality. The day of the wedding, I believe it was his wife, who was a delight to receive the boxes from, came to drop them off to our hotel rooms in a such timely manner! We had time to distribute and pin the boutonnieres on the groomsmen. Looking back at all the photos: the succulents, centerpieces, and floral arrangements were gorgeous and a perfect tie to my garden theme! There were so many compliments from the bridesmaids and guests, we're glad he was referred to us by the Imperia!
Choosing Brandywine as the florist for my wedding was the best decision I made. Period. Actually Brandwine was referred to me by Details Made Simple, my Wedding Day Coordinator Carla :).
It was one of the FEW & ONLY parts of our wedding where I did not feel at any point of the process that I was being ripped off. I am extremely particular when it comes to aesthetics and choosing a florist was my nightmare because I wanted very specific gorgeous flowers & had crazy ideas in my head & from Pinterest but refused to pay an outrageous amount for it. From the moment I walked into Brandywine and met Claus, the owner, I knew it was the right decision. He was SO friendly and SO accommodating and I could tell truly cared. I was told Brandywine was not a full on decorator florist just a florist…BUT what Claus did for our wedding was ABOVE and BEYOND. He met every SINGLE request and for most did not charge me “extra” at all, for example I asked him 1 week before the wedding for a “Just married” wreath for our car and he made it happen (for almost the SAME price as a fake un personalized one on Esty….these were REAL flowers that matched my bouquet). He helped out so much by suggesting a mixture of high centerpieces, candelabras & low center pieces to save some money, and in the end it turned out stunning and matched our ballroom perfectly. Almost every guest commented on our flowers. I even went as far as saying I wanted no green in our bouquets and he made it happen for no extra cost, the bouquets and arrangements came out even more gorgeous than the pinterest photos I showed him (which I thought was literally impossible).
When I explained our budget but also told him that I wanted a LOT of flowers & detailed arrangements for the entire venue he suggested multiple ways to make this happen like using the bridesmaids bouquets for the sweetheart table, transferring the arrangements from the church to the reception & even using the wreath on the car to be displayed on the mantle during the reception.
He also added flowers to our cake which was MAGNIFICENT (see for your-self attached), people thought that we paid hundreds/thousands extra for this but we did not.
If you want someone who you can truly trust, to NOT rip you off and go above and beyond with every detail go to Brandywine & work with Claus 😊 we will NEVER forget this amazing experience and I recommend him to ALL brides (with ALL budgets!!) go to him!!
Claus is so amazing! He listened to everything I asked for and helped me through the million times I changed my mind with patience and perfect recommendations! Every thing that Claus touched was perfection from the bridesmaids bouquets to my dream cascading bouquet to the surprise garland he threw together last minute for our sweetheart table. I highly recommend Brandywine and can’t say enough amazing things about their professionalism, kindness and final product!!
I was VERY happy with my beautiful wedding flowers designed by Brandywine Floral Design. I had almost given up hope on having flowers because other shops were quoting me very high prices, until I came across Claus and his team. He was willing to work with my budget and still provided spectacular floral displays. Their attention to detail was very important to me, and the flowers were delivered on time and in perfect condition the day of the wedding. It was great knowing I was in such good hands. Can't say enough good things about their work.
Claus was amazing to work with and listened to everything I (and my opinionated mother) wanted. On wedding day, when I saw the bouquets, corsages/boutonnieres, centerpieces, and ceremony decor, I was absolutely blown away - he made my romantic wedding vision come to life, candles and all! I'd hire him again in a heartbeat!! Thank you Claus!
Claus was simply amazing to work with. He went above and beyond to make my vision come to life on my limited budget. He gave me accurate timelines and answered all of my questions throughout the planning process, and called 2 days before my wedding to confirm all designs and drop off times. We got so many compliments from our guests on our centerpieces and the flowers stayed fresh for almost 2 weeks after our big day. Would definitely recommend working with him!
Brandywine was the absolute best florist company after searching for a while! Claus was fantastic and such a pleasure to work with! He had great ideas and was super attentive to every detail of what I wanted for my wedding! The day of my wedding I was completely overjoyed how beautiful the flowers came to life from the bouquets to centerpieces! They were so amazing in the pictures as well! The best part is that is was so affordable and looking back I was so thankful I used Brandywine as my florist!
We worked with the owner of Brandywine, Claus, for our flowers and he truly went above and beyond every step of the way. When we first met with him, he took the time to find out what we really wanted, our budget, and how to accomplish that within our budget. He even met with us at the night of our tasting with a sample of the centerpieces so we would know what it would look like next to the decor of the venue room. No other florist vendors will do this for you at no additional charge. He also worked with us to help us stay within our budget while still getting everything we wanted. I could not have asked for a better experience. Claus is a great man!!! He's very personable and honestly loves what he does and you can see that in the flower arrangements he produces.
Helping my future daughter-in-law choose the flowers for her wedding was great fun with Claus. In truth, we had already made arrangements with a local florist, paid for several trials and were so disappointed that she just didn't understand our vision - they were awful and we were stressed. Claus rescued us just weeks before the wedding! He didn't just listen to the description of what we wanted, he made suggestions, improvements and created a trial that was perfect from the first. He seamlessly took care of all set up/tear down, provided gorgeous fresh flowers and did it all while completely respecting our budget. If my other son gets married anywhere in the area - Claus will be our first call!
Claus made my vision of my flowers come true. I have a hard time making final decisions but he made sure to include all the colors and flowers I wanted and more. I have all the flowers still displayed around the house. He works with you and gives you the honest answers even if you did not want to hear it. His pricing is reasonable as well.
The flowers were absolutely gorgeous and exactly what I wanted for my wedding. The price point was also competitive, and Claus made everything very simple from beginning to end. My only complaint was his level of unprofessionalism in interactions with my mother. He made her (and me, in turn) feel very uncomfortable with some inappropriate comments he made to her. You will definitely get a wonderful product working with Claus, but we unfortunately had an unprofessional experience whenever my mother was around.
Claus is an absolute gem to work with. If you like a little bit of humor in your day, he is your guy. When everyone else was stressing me out, he was there with a joke or two to lighten the situation. He is so detail oriented, knew my venue well enough to steer me in the right direction, and made everything perfect. Communication was never an issue as he responded almost instantly. Highly recommend!
Claus did great work for our 4/21/2018 wedding! I received so many compliments and the price was perfect for my budget
Claus is my favorite person ever! He is such a genuine man. He kept us laughing and happy the whole way! My flowers were absolutely stunning! He went over and above for us. He cares about details and truly gets what you want and are asking for. We would just make excuses to go see him and listen to his stories and talk. He even came personally to deliver our flowers to each of our houses the morning of! We felt completely confident knowing our decor was in his hands! So easy to work with and communicate with. We love him and can’t even say enough wonderful things about him and his work! We thank you with all our hearts for making our day absolutely beautiful!! <3 Anthony and Gena
I just got married a month ago and have had the pleasure of working with Claus. Claus has been accommodating and professional throughout our wedding planning process and made our flower arrangements so beautifully. I had a vision and he made it come to life. Our guests were very impressed with our centerpieces and gazebo design and our wedding party were very happy with their bouquets and corsages. We are very happy with Brandywine Floral Design and recommend this vendor to anyone and everyone!
Claus was wonderful to work with! Very professional and easy to work with. He helped me go through pictures to decide what I wanted for myself, bridesmaids, groomsmen, and parents. He stayed within the budget that I had and everything came out to be exactly what I wanted ! Everything was beautiful! Would reccommend him to everyone !
From our first meeting, Claus was wonderful and accommodating. I sent pictures of what I had liked and gave him creative freedom. The bouquets arrived and were beautiful! The only disappointment was the delivery person the day of our wedding. He was disheveled and unprofessional. I had expected Claus to deliver, and was disappointed that this was not the case. Aside from that, I could not have been happier with the quality of flowers and the reasonable pricing.
I never ever give top ratings to any service provider because I believe there is always something that could have been done better. But not in this case...from the first contact made (phone call) to completion of my event, Brandywine Florist did not disappoint! The vendor was thoughtful, had great suggestions and delivered beyond my expectations! Thank you so much for making my event one that will always be remembered!
I knew when I first met Claus he would help me capture my dream wedding. When searching for awhile he was the first one who made my vision come to life within my price range. He was so understanding and did everything I asked for. He listened to my ideas and helped me make it a reality. So many emails back and forth and not once did he seem like I was bothering him. I am so happy with the outcome and even happier that I choose him! I can't wait to my friends wedding where we will for sure use Brandywine! I highly recommend them if you're looking for a great experience.
Claus was amazing to work with. He was able to make what I had envisioned a reality. There was no task or request he was not up to handle. I really appreciated his flexibility. I would definitely recommend working with them!
I would highly recommend Claus and his team at Brandywine Floral design to be your wedding florist. Claus is extremely professional and works to create your dream vision within your budget. I went to a florist recommended by my venue and was told I would need to double my budget, which I refused to. To stay within my budget I was forced to take out many items I wanted for my wedding and was left with the bare minimum to stay in my budget. With Claus that was the exact opposite. I got everything I wanted and more! Whenever I met with Claus we always had good laughs and I thoroughly enjoyed working with him. The day of the wedding the flowers were delivered, set up, and taken down in an extremely timely manner. I didn’t stress about the flowers at all on my wedding day which is all thanks to the Brandywine Team. I guarantee you will not be disappointed when you choose to work with Brandywine 😀.
Claus is so talented! He is very flexible with meeting with couples and strives to create exactly what you want.
Where to even begin?? Claus at Brandywine exceeded my expectations on every level. I'm blown away by his work and would recommend him to anyone. When we first met, I gave him a general idea of flowers/colors. He showed me a range of photos from previous weddings, fielded all of my questions, and left me feeling that no detail would be overlooked. Whereas another florist had told me that it would be hard to find olive branches for our arch in November, Claus found a way. A few weeks before the wedding, he even made me two sample centerpieces and met me at my wedding venue in NYC to show me what they would look like in the room. A few days before the wedding, there were some last-minute seating changes that could have changed the floral plan -- at no point did Claus complain or make me feel stressed about it. I know most brides say the day goes by without you remembering what anything looks like, but I have to say -- when I saw the bouquets, the boutonnieres, the arch (which he cleverly designed so that it had four poles but wasn't a traditional chuppah, as we are an interfaith couple), the centerpieces, the cake -- I was stunned. Claus made everything 10x more beautiful and luxurious than I could have imagined. He also graciously accommodated a last-minute request to incorporate more olive branches into our arch, as my in-laws had brought some with them from Croatia. On top of providing the most excellent service and beautiful work, Claus was also very fairly priced. I cannot recommend him enough. Thank you for everything, Claus!
Claus at Brandywine was amazing! He met my expectations for our wedding and made our floral arrangements perfect! He made the vision I had come to life! And completed every little detail I asked for. His arrangements lasted the entire wedding, photography session, and reception, and didn't even start wilting until 2 days after the wedding! We recommend him to everyone!
Booking Claus for my wedding was one of the best things I did. He has such a great personality and it was a pleasure to work with him. My flowers looked so beautiful for my wedding, and he really captured all the fall colors I wanted with such elegance and flair. I would highly recommend him!!!
I had booked brandywine florists after having seen Claus's display at a bridal show. I also had the pleasure of meeting Claus at the show. CLaus has a unique eye for beautiful flowers and actually knows exactly what is wanted! The flowers for my wedding were exquisite! Our bouquets were absolutely beautiful. The centerpiece for the reception were outstanding! So many compliments from our guests!!!!!! We did have a little game for someone at each table to win the centerpiece and that made so many people so happy! Brought so much color to the venue! We had picked a fall theme and everything Claus had suggested and did was outstanding! I only wish Ihe did ever flowers for everyday use! Absolutely wonderful and I would highly recommend brandywine to any bride!!!!
Working with Brandywine and Claus was one of the best decisions I made during the planning process. In planning, I met with Claus a few times (bringing along some Pinterest pictures for inspiration) and he executed on them perfectly! I wanted lanterns to be the centerpiece (which Brandywine provided gorgeous ones for us to use) and simple floral displays throughout. The flowers and the chuppah came out better than I could have ever imagined. And Claus was so easy to work with, making it the most seamless process. Everything was absolutely gorgeous.
Brandywine came as a referral to me from a friend of a friend because I’m not from New Jersey, so I was overwhelmed by the choices. I’m SO HAPPY we were referrred to them because my day easy BEAUTIFUL!
Claus was not only professional and attentive, but he was super kind and flexible. I live in Tennessee and had to plan using only pictures and emails. He got everything exactly the way I wanted it and more.
Additionally, as a teacher and a cop, we were on a tight budget, and I can honestly say the price of all our flowers blew me away. The cost was significantly less than what I anticipated for way more than I ever dreamed.
If you’re looking for a budget friendly professional who treats you like you’re honestly a member of his own family getting married, Brandywine Floral Design is the way to go!
Claus was a pleasure to work with for our wedding day and everything turned out beautiful!!!
AMAZING. my flowers came out absolutely GORGEOUS. it was exactly what i asked for plus so much more. i never doubted Claus for a second. he made my experience super easy. flowers are the one thing that i was afraid of spending money on because i kept hearing that they could cost a fortune and Brandywine was very affordable. a few of my friends used them and i will tell every bride i know to use them because i know they would never disappoint.
We used Brandywine for my daughter's wedding and Claus, the owner, was amazing! From the flowers, to the centerpieces, and to the fine little details that made the day extra special, everything was simply gorgeous! Even our wedding coordinator said she wished she could work with Claus at every wedding. He thinks of everything and knows the exact perfect touches to make your event unique and special. I recommend Brandywine all the way! You'll definitely be happy!
I had an amazing experience working with Claus! He was so knowledgeable about flowers, which was perfect for me because all I knew was what colors I liked. My bridesmaids loved how well their bouquets complimented their dresses and my bridal bouquet was just stunning! I would recommend Claus to any Jersey bride!
I would highly recommend Claus to anyone who needs flowers for any event. He was such a pleasure to work with and did an amazing job with our centerpieces, bouquets and boutonnières. Everything came out perfectly and lasted. It’s over a week later and I still have my bouquet and some of the centerpieces around our house.
He is easy to get in touch with and pricing was extremely reasonable.
My husband Sean and I had a wonderful experience overall with Claus at Brandywine Floral Design! He was an absolute pleasure from the start to the finish and was our favorite vendor! Claus was very flexible with us as we don't live in Jersey anymore and always made sure to make our appointment times work. He also was receptive to our ideas and helped us shape our vision into something real and beautiful! To make things even better, he had worked with our wedding venue before and stopped by during two of our appointments with them to discuss floral decor and centerpieces in our space. At this meeting, he even DISCOURAGED us from spending more money on certain floral decor/details that would only be used for a very short period of time. Then, he brought a sample floral arrangement to another meeting which was so helpful to see in person and in the space itself. He even brought a few different flowers so we could play around and see what we liked the best. His honesty and flexibility were unmatched by any other vendor of ours. There was a minor mixup with the bouquet drop-off, but luckily the hotel and venue share a parking lot, so it was an easy fix. Thank you so much Claus!
Clause was awesome!! I changed my centerpieces about 20 times and he was so patient. He made my vision come true and everyone couldn't stop talking of how beautiful the venue looked. prices were very rasonable and he paid attention to very detail I told him. Clause you are the best!!
Claus is amazing! He did the flowers for my sister's wedding and helped make the day one of the most memorable days ever. The flowers were beautiful and he truly was able to capture everything we were looking for. Would recommend, could not have been happier!
I can not even begin to say enough about Brandywine, and mainly Claus! Originally when I was looking for a florist I had went to a different (I'll keep unnamed) vendor who when I told her my vision and budget laughed at me and said I had "champagne taste and beer pockets" and that my flowers would look"small and silly" on that budget. I felt horrible UNTIL I went and met with Claus from Brandywine. Not only did Claus listen to my vision, he was willing to work with my budget, he made my fiancé (at the time) and I feel so calm and comfortable. He listened to my ideas, he gave me a wonderful trial run at the venue months in advance, and he always kept in contact. The day of our wedding he was on time with the most stunning flowers I had ever seen, everyone raved about them, and my venue flowers were INCREDIBLE. Claus thank you for your beautiful designs, your timeliness, and your overall demeanor which made me and my now husband feel like we got the royal treatment. I'd recommend you in a heart beat and I will absolutely use you for all future events!! Thank you!
Thank you to Claus and the team at Brandywine for creating beautiful pieces for our April 2017 wedding!!
Claus was easy to work with and was able to work with our budget. Because I had so many ideas, he helped narrow down my vision. He also provide sample centerpieces at our food tasting so we can see how it would look like at our venue (this was helpful, since the uplighting would affect the color of the centerpieces). He made it easy to contact him with any changes or questions that I had. Claus was very accommodating that the day before the wedding I realized I did not have a bouquet for the church offering, and he was able to provide one for us last minute. When I saw the bouquets and centerpieces the day of, I could not have been more excited! I absolutely LOVE my bridal bouquet, it was absolutely stunning and it exceeded my expectation!
Thank you Claus for such beautiful arrangements! (especially my bouquet!)
We could not have been happier with Brandywine. Working with Claus was easy and wonderful. He truly understood the look we were going for and the flowers were beyond what we could have imagined. He made flower planning seamless and worry free and we could not thank him enough!! Claus even went the extra mile to bring a sample of our centerpieces to the venue during our tasting so we can see them in our ballroom - what a extraordinary touch! Thank you!!!
Claus is great! We used Brandywine Floral Design for our wedding in early July. We gave Claus quite a challenge because we didn’t have wedding colors and instead had a color pallet (vibrant garden colors) that we generally wanted to use. Claus was able to interpret our vague ideas and gave us beautiful arrangements that complimented the venue and the bridal party’s clothes. He is incredibly easy to work with, had great suggestions, and recommended ways to save money without anyone noticing (reusing the bouquet for the sweetheart table, supplying the votive candles for him, etc.). Just make sure to leave in extra time when you meet him for his story telling. Definitely send him pictures of what you are thinking about (he’ll recommended this as well) because it helped us better visualize what we wanted. On our wedding day, Claus came early and was set up well in advance of the ceremony. Everything went smoothly and we got tons of compliments on the centerpieces, chuppah and bouquets!!
I met with several other florist before choosing Brandwine. Claus is simply the best! He was so knowledgeable and pleasant to work with while helping me decide on my dream flowers for our wedding. Our flowers turned out gorgeous and the stunning orchids he ordered stayed fresh weeks after our wedding. I really appreciated that Claus was in constant communication and returned emails or phone calls within a few hours and was patient when I kept adding more flowers to our arrangements :) My blush and cream centerpieces looked fabulous and my bouquet was perfect. I highly recommend Brandywine and Claus truly was my favorite vendor. Thank you again!!!!
Working with Claus was great! I met with him a few times prior to the wedding to discuss all of the details. Claus also brought a sample of the centerpiece to my food tasting. It was great having a sneak peak of the flowers at our wedding venue! I would definitely recommend Brandywine Floral Design.
claus, the owner, was a dream to work with from start to finish. he made sure every little detail was noted and realized, even attaching my late grandfather's bracelet to my bouquet so that i could have a little piece of him with me as i walked down the aisle. we got tons of compliments on the chuppah of white birch with sunflowers; and all our bouquets, boutonnières, and my step mom's wristlets were beautiful. i would recommend brandywine to anyone planning a wedding (i already have, in fact; twice)! you will not be disappointed and your day will be that much more gorgeous and memorable.
Claus was so amazing to work with. He is cool, calm, and so knowledgeable about how to make your vision a reality (and within your budget)! We went to Claus with a slight idea of what we wanted for our wedding day and a price point in mind, and Claus was able to come up with the perfect combination of flowers to really bring everything together. Claus exceeded our expectations. We received so many compliments on how elegant and gorgeous everything looked. Brandywine Floral Design will forever receive our referral. Claus is a true artist!
Claus exceeded our expectations in every way! Especially given the relatively low prices he charges for his flowers and services. It was such a pleasure to visit him and talk through everything. He paid attention to every detail and really made us feel like valued customers. He even made samples of our centerpieces free of charge -- no other florist we considered offered this. On our big day our flowers were absolutely perfect. He even threw in free peonies for my bridal bouquet which was such a pleasant surprise. Our centerpieces were gorgeous and at the end of the night everyone wanted to take them home. Cannot recommend Claus enough!
We chose Brandywine after reading the reviews and meeting with Claus. However, to say we were disappointed with the results on our wedding day, would be an understatement.
We met with Claus 3 times. Each time we emphasized that we did not want any dyed flowers and that we did not care for roses, especially for the groomsmen. I was completely shocked when my flowers arrived on my wedding day and not only were many of the flowers dyed, but all of the bouquets were mostly roses and the boutineers were all roses. We provided a photo for my bouquet and the result was nothing like the photo provided. To top it off, my bouquet was falling apart before I even walked down the aisle.
It felt as if our requests were either not noted or ignored in preparing our flowers.
Claus was wonderful to work with. Our flowers were beautiful and lasted a really long time. His flowers added beauty to our wonderful day! Thank you Claus for being so easy to work with!
