Bright Floral

tant to me; I spent more time looking at bouquets and centerpieces on Pinterest than looking at wedding dresses. My husband and I were married under a immense tree at the Stow House and Amy had flowers cascading from the tree which provided the perfect backdrop to our ceremony. She was able to choose unique and delicate flowers for my bouquet which resembled tiny little stars. The reception was filled with beautiful centerpieces, garlands and greenery in all the right places. She made sure there were flowers in the fountain and provided coordinating votive candles for the tables which added elegance and sparkle. She is easy to work with, as she has a laid back personality with an eye for detail. Hiring Amy was one of the best decisions we made

of our favorite vendors on our wedding day. People were raving about my bouquet and how gorgeous the space looked. She is extremely creative and thoughtful in her design process. Her proposal stuck out from all the rest and she was always responsive and flexible. I would gladly hire her again.

e to do more, but she did not. She brought our vision to life and understood the vibe and style we wanted. She was very professional and genuinely a joy to work with for our special day. It was also a destination wedding and at no point was she difficult to reach if I had a question or needed details. I enjoyed our planning chats over the phone. She was always so nice and seemed to be as laid-back as me. I would definitely recommend working with her for your next event!

r modern, organic, creative floral design at a competitive price point. In speaking with her over the phone, we were struck by her warm professionalism and humility as well as her background in textile design. Hiring Amy ended up being one of our best decisions in wedding planning. Amy was a true pleasure to work with from our first discussion through our wedding day. After our first conversation, she developed an organized proposal based on the ideas we discussed. She was incredibly helpful in offering suggestions to make our floral vision possible while remaining within our budget. She was responsive to all communication over email and offered to meet us at the venue when we were in town. As our wedding approached, she joined us and our coordinator at our venue walk-through to finalize floral decisions. Throughout the planning process, she struck us as unusually kind, humble, accommodating, and perceptive – but never overbearing. Upon first seeing Amy’s work during the set up for our wedding day, we were blown away. She went above and beyond in bringing to life our vision of floral design. She incorporated our requests for organic, modern, loose bouquets, boutonnieres, and arrangements with an artful balance of texture, color, and greens. The five shaped floral rings she created for our ceremony were more beautiful than we envisioned. And throughout the venue, she added exquisite touches of florals and greens to signs, seating, welcome tables, dessert tables, and the like. The colors of all floral elements complemented the venue and our attire beautifully. Our wedding guests continue to rave about Amy’s work, including the handful of guests themselves experienced in gardening and floral design. Santa Barbara is fortunate to have a community of talented florists, but Amy Pihlar stands out with distinction. We cannot recommend her enough and urge you to book her services as soon as possible. She is exceedingly talented at floral design, with an attention to detail that one appreciates immediately upon seeing her work. This talent is partnered with Amy’s warm professionalism, refreshing humility, and dedication to making possible the vision of each client.
