Hiring Bonita was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!
My mom and I met with Bonita about a month before the wedding to talk through the style, colors, and overall v...
ision we had for our flowers. I came with inspiration photos, but some of my ideas were pretty vague. I told Bonita that I trusted her creativity to bring everything together and she absolutely nailed it!
Bonita took a vision I couldn't quite put into words and turned it into something even more beautiful than I imagined. Everything was stunning, from the flowers on the pergola to the bridesmaids' bouquets and the groomsmen's boutonnieres. Every arrangement was thoughtfully designed and fit our wedding perfectly.
One thing we especially appreciated was that she repurposed our ceremony flowers and the bridesmaids' bouquets for the reception, which made everything look beautiful while getting the most out of our florals.
To this day, our family and friends are still talking about how gorgeous the flowers were. We couldn't have been happier with Bonita's work and are so grateful she was part of our wedding day. Thank you, Bonita
Bonita was absolutely wonderful to work with! She brought my floral vision to life perfectly and was so incredibly kind throughout the entire process. The flowers on our wedding da...

As a wedding planner from Vinella Events, I am always grateful to work with creative and thoughtful florists. Bonita and team worked so diligently to give such a beautiful experien...
ce for the couple...no matter any challenges that may have arrived. They built a large suspended floral from the ceiling that completely transformed the space and still decorated the rest of the room. It truly shows how they can handle anything and work well under pressure. I would definitely recommend them to any of my clients in the future.

nate about creating something beautiful. She took my vision and executed it perfectly. She even crafted a vision guide to help us visualize putting it all together.
The floral designs Bonita created were absolutely breathtaking. Every arrangement, from the bouquets to the centerpieces, was thoughtfully designed and perfectly captured the vision we had for our day. The combination of colors and textures was stunning, and perfectly matched our fall color palette. I also loved that we repurposed some of the ceremony flowers in the reception space! Bonita was like a little ninja setting things up before the ceremony and between the events.
Beyond Bonita’s incredible talent, Bonita was such a joy to work with. She listened carefully to our ideas, offered expert guidance, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. She brought such a calming and positive energy to the process, which made all the difference during wedding planning.
We are so grateful to Bonita for bringing our dream wedding to life with her gorgeous designs. If you’re looking for a florist who is not only skilled but also genuinely kind and caring, look no further than Busy B’s Floral. I am recommending her to any and all friends that are getting married.
Truly a gifted and beautiful person, months later I still swoon over my flowers.
She also has a very cute dog named Yoshi.
Bonita is the BEST! We recently got married at the end of June, and my husband and I had zero clue what flowers or arrangements we wanted. From the start, Bonita let us know her vi...
sion, gave us ideas and found inspiration to guide her vision, and was so welcoming of our own ideas, too! She worked so hard on our flowers behind the scenes, and we could see her hard work and love for her work at our wedding. All of our guests raved about our flowers and color scheme, too, and some still have the arrangements left over at the end of the night! We loved everything about Bonita's work, and we cannot thank her enough for it all!
We used Busy B's Florals for our wedding and I would highly recommend them. Bonita is so sweet and was so helpful in making my floral design come to life. I told Bonita my likes/di...
slikes and provided some pinterest inspiration photos. From there, Bonita created a vision board to capture all my ideas. She set up everything so beautifully and made the process super seamless. I LOVED my flowers. My bouquet was exactly what I envisioned and the centerpieces were stunning. She nailed the floral design perfectly. It was a pleasure to work with Bonita.
If I could give Bonita 10 stars I would!! I got married on 8/23/24 and Bonita went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I got the most beautiful florals at our wedding! She...
EXCEEDED any expectations! We live in Texas and had to communicate to all of our vendors through email or phone calls and Bonita was able to accommodate to us which was amazing! We had several meetings and went through every little detail and she made my vision come to life. Not only is she the sweetest person but she is truly dedicated to her work and her customers!!
My experience with Bonita at Busy B's Floral for our wedding florals was truly a dream come true. Bonita was so easy to work with and truly understood my creative vision for our fl...
orals. She is well-versed on so many styles and has such a rich knowledge of the flora to help bring my vision board to life, including something new & trendy (grounded arch). She's affordably priced relative to other vendors in the area, which took stress off from a budgeting perspective. She communicates extremely well and is so personable - I felt like I gained a friend in the process. She also provided recommendations as a true partner in the process. A favorite part of working together - she not only set up, re-purposed, and tore down the florals, but also donated our flowers to a retirement home after all was said and done. You will not be disappointed if you choose to work with Bonita!
Bonita is just fantastic! Anyone considering Busy B'sfor their florist should just go ahead and book. She was such a delight and just the friendliest person you could meet. She too...
k exactly what I had envisioned from the pictures and descriptions I sent and brought our shades of blue theme to life perfectly on the wedding day. From the candles to the greenery to the flowers everything was perfect. She was so helpful and communicative throughout the whole planning process. Even better, she was able to repurpose our flowers so there was little to no waste and donated the flowers at the end of the night – such a win in our book! What’s even more convenient is that she preserves flowers as well and we can’t wait to see how the bouquet turns out! We seriously could not recommend working with Bonita highly enough so just book her and we promise you’ll have no regrets – she’s the best!
We got married on 06/28/2024. Busy B's Floral went above and beyond to provide my bridesmaids and I with absolutely gorgeous bouquets, and my husband and his groomsmen with beautif...
ul boutonnieres. Bonita, the owner of Busy B's, is very nice, friendly, detail-oriented, and communicative. Bonita helped turn our dream pastel-colored wedding vision to life! She provided us with beautiful rose petals for our wedding aisles and flowers for our wedding arch. I HIGHLY recommend Busy B's Floral for your wedding!
Bonita is the most AMAZING florist to work with for your wedding. From the second we inquired with her & had a phone call about our vision we knew she was the one. We had wanted a ...
hanging installation at a venue that it has never been done at before & when we brought up this idea she was so excited about it, she even took the time to go to the venue to make sure it was able to be done. She is so detailed about everything, making sure nothing is forgotten. Even the corsages for the MOB & MOG were put together so beautifully with a pearl bracelet. Not only is Bonita so talented but she is the sweetest person. I can’t wait to have my bouquet preserved with her! I would recommend Busy B’s in a heartbeat!

I found Bonita simply by searching on Google. When I first saw her art with flowers, I thought she had a gift. Once I talked to her on the phone, I knew for sure she was the one. I...
talked to 5 or 6 different florists. Bonita was the only one who took the time to ask me where my venue was (she looked it up right on the spot), wanted to see my dress, the decor, the vision. She wanted to see it all! For me, that showed her dedication and effort that she took to build beautiful flowers. Bonita made all my personal flowers and she did better than my wildest dreams. She captured all my favorite flowers and colors. She made sure that they even matched the floral arrangements that my venue created for my ceremony/reception. I received SO many compliments over my flowers, and rightfully so. She made sure that they were magical and I felt all the love she put into her work.
Bonita, your name couldn't be more fitting for you. You are amazing and I am SO excited to work more with you in the future! Thank you for everything that you've done to make my day a dream come true.
PS! Not only does she do beautiful bouquets, but she also does floral preservation! She is a one stop shop.

rgeous florals and greenery that made our wedding feel like a dream! She was so willing to work with us within our budget and made our bouquets, boutonnieres, arch decor, table and venue decor look soooo stunning. We received so many compliments throughout our wedding day about how beautiful her arrangements were -- don't hesitate to book Busy B's for your wedding or event!
I cannot even begin to put into words how incredible Bonita is. She went above and beyond for us with our wedding florals and support throughout wedding planning. She took the visi...
on I gave her and made it come to life. Not only did Bonita make my dream floral arrangements but with the unexpected loss of my grandfather just a month before my wedding, Bonita was able to preserve the flowers that were at his bedside as a remembrance at my wedding. Bonita is such a talented florist but an even more incredible person. I would book with her again in a heartbeat. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU BONITA! We absolutely adore you.
I had the best experience working with Bonita! I had a friend recommend her to me and I am so thankful. She is incredibly talented and is probably one of the sweetest people I have...
ever met! I told her what my overall vision was for my floral and decor and she ran with it and let me tell you I was not disappointed! I actually cried when I saw my bouquet it was so beautiful. She is so easy to work with and was super helpful with helping us stay in budget. We got compliments on the decor all night. You would be silly not to book her she is the best of the best!!!
Working with Bonita on planning our wedding was such a joy. She is the most amazingly talented, kind, sweet person! I gave her our budget and she completely made my vision come to ...
life and BEYOND. Bonita has made planning a wedding so much easier and actually enjoyable. She also just started a journey doing flower preservation and I wish I had been able to do that through her as well. Thank you thank you x1000! Words can’t express my gratitude!!
Bonita is the sweetest person you will ever meet!! She was prompt in her responses, on time, and so easy to work with. I gave her inspiration pictures and she made our wedding flor...
als better than I could’ve imagined. Our ceremony was supposed to be outdoors but it ended up raining all day - she adjusted flawlessly and decorated a gorgeous arch for our indoor ceremony. The centerpieces, the bouquets, the boutonnières were all amazing. After the reception was over she came to take everything down and was even able to donate our flowers to a charity event and nursing home. I will recommend her to every single person I know. She helped make our wedding day beautiful! Thank you Bonita!!
Holy moly, where to start? Bonita supplied my flowers for my wedding and went above and beyond expectations! She was approachable, responded in a timely matter, and created literal...
pieces of art work out of flowers. I received so many compliments of my floral arrangements throughout the day. It was a stress-free process with Bonita and I HIGHLY recommend her services. She does an amazing job.
Bonita is fantastic! She was super helpful at designing a vision that looked gorgeous and fit within our budget. She was so quick to respond to communication throughout the plannin...
g process and she even came to our final venue walkthrough to develop the vision for the florals in our space. What truly shines about Bonita is her genuine excitement for her couples, she was so happy for us and so enthusiastic about designing our flowers. It made it a joy to work with her because she brought so much excitement to our wedding planning. The flowers she designed were stunning and brought the whole vision together, she absolutely nailed the vision. She is an amazing artist! Something extra special that she did was she offered to come back to our venue at the end of the night to collect the flowers in order to donate them to a nursing home, which is something that we had requested that was really important to us. I can’t recommend Bonita enough, and I tell all my friends who are engaged to choose her for their florist. Choosing Bonita for our florist was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning!
A friend recommended Bonita to me and I'm glad she did! I honestly had no idea what I was really looking for, but she put together the perfect bouquets based on my Pinterest boards...
. She is so kind, easy to work with, responsive... everything you would want in a wedding vendor! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a florist!

e or addition I made, she was unbelievably supportive and encouraging. Her arrangements were absolutely BEAUTIFUL and she brought my vision to life. Bonita has wonderful customer service, prices and execution. I received so many compliments on our flowers and I am so proud to tell them about Bonita and her business. She made this part of the wedding planning absolutely seamless. I CANNOT recommend Bonita enough and I will be forwarding her information to all of my friends and family having events in the future
Bonita was easily the best vendor decision we fell into for our wedding! After things didn’t work out with our original florist 5 months prior to the wedding, we scrambled to find ...
someone who could achieve my vision, fit our budget, and be available for our date!
I am SO glad we found Bonita and Busy B’s. She is the sweetest human, from the moment you meet her. She was so excited about my unique floral ideas and she was so open to every random idea or change/addition I came up with. When I first saw my bouquet the day of the wedding, I could not stop staring! And when we arrived to the venue and saw it all come to life - it was more than I could’ve imagined. The arch was so stunning, the tablescapes were divine, all the details were so perfect I’m only sad I didn’t have my phone on me or I would’ve walked around taking pictures of it all for myself! Afterwards I left on my honeymoon and was worried about how to preserve my bouquet. I messaged Bonita and she said she would help my sister-in-law (who had the bouquet!) find the best way to preserve it. Talk about above and beyond! She was simply the best and I am so glad we found her!
Bonita was the best vendor I had worked with for my wedding. She is so sweet, kind and truly cares about her clients. She never made me feel like I was bothering her any time I had...
to call or text her if I had a question or changed my mind on something (and let me tell you, I changed my mind often) I brought an idea to her that I had and it was something she had never done before and she NAILED it. She was so excited to work on our hanging halo of flowers and we received SO many compliments on her work. She truly brought my Pinterest vision board to life. Do not hesitate on booking Bonita, she was a joy to work with
Bonita is the sweetest and so awesome to work with. I made my own centerpieces for my wedding, but did not trust myself with the bouquets. Bonita went above and beyond to make my v...
ision come to life. She is so responsive and does her best to get every flower you want, even if it isn't in season. She made two sets of boutonnieres at no extra charge to give me the option because she remembered I wasn't sure about the roses. We ended up using the rose ones, but it was such a sweet gesture to have a backup and proves how thoughtful Bonita is. Bonita is professional, personable, and a hidden gem I found in a bride facebook group through my photographer. I'm so glad I asked for recommendations that day! Thank you so much for the beautiful bouquets Bonita!
A bride’s dream!!! Seriously go book her before another bride! She took my vision and enhanced it into a beautiful reality. Her bouquets were even better than I could have pictured...
and her flower arch was STUNNING! Everyone was complimenting how stunning our flowers were, plus they were affordable. Bonita was so kind, easygoing, and flexible!! We love you Bonita! I can’t wait to share the professional pictures once they arrive.
