No need to search any further! Founder Atalanta of Camellia Wedding Flowers will make your floral dreams a reality for your wedding day!
I absolutely love her! She is beyond prof...
essional, creative, kind, upbeat, patient, reliable, consistently positive and optimistic. She offers a wealth of expertise about the most beautiful flowers! She listens to your wedding floral wishes and executes with great care to details.
She’s simply wonderful and exactly what an anxious bride like myself needed!
I made a few changes along the way due to my husband’s wedding party having a major change in their tux color six weeks out from the wedding! I was very discouraged because I had an idea set in my mind! Atalanta did not fret. She sent over new floral ideas promptly for the adjustments!
When I tell you that seeing my ceremony and reception floral arrangements gave me butterflies! It’s true! I could not believe my eyes because of what absolutely beautiful works of art Atalanta had created! It was a floral layout fit for royalty.
I am extremely blessed to have found Camellia Wedding Flowers! Atalanta will always hold a special place in my heart for her role in the most spectacular day of my life!
We LOVED our flowers!! Atalanta was so easy to work with and very affordable! She was also very flexible when we had some late changes in our final numbers. We went with a tropical...
vibe and she nailed it! I loved my bouquet so much, I decided the next day I had to get it preserved (not in the original plans!). We heard so many compliments about the floral arrangements and they were truly beautiful. She had some great recommendations and was very open to creative ideas, like we did pocket boutonnières instead of standard ones. We were recommended to Atalanta by a friend who recently got married, and I would recommend her to anyone! She can go as big or small as you're looking for.
Atalanta is an incredible florist! Not only are her floral designs and pieces beautiful, but she is so easy to work with. There are a lot of options when looking for wedding flower...
s, but Atalanta made the entire process so easy. She let us adjust our order multiple times when we changed our minds and gave us so many wonderful ideas along the way. She is very creative when it comes to her designs and has such a wide skill set with designs and colors! We loved every second of working with her and she made our wedding and reception look so beautiful! We received many compliments from her work. We could not recommend her enough!
I found Atalanta off of our venues preferred venue list and i’m sooooo glad I went with her!!!! She made our already beautiful venue even more beautiful with the florals she create...
d for me!! I was actually speechless! I showed her my inspo pics and she gave me exactly what I wanted and more! I can’t thank you enough!!!!!
I really love and I am a fan of Atalanta's work! She combines an exquisite artistic taste for every detail with all the practical skills and knowledge of how to handle intricate fl...
oral aspects, and so professional always! She is a gifted florist and deeply loves and enjoys what she does. I feel that must be what makes the big magic of her imagination with the ideas we provided. we asked for a tropical these for our wedding, she gave us that and much more!
I can't say enough wonderful things about Atalanta. Weddings are incredibly hectic and are therefore inevitably imperfect. The only vendor who completely nailed everything for me...
was Atalanta. She totally listened, understood our vision for the wedding and made great suggestions. She even went out of her way to find me an arch I saw on Pinterest that no one in San Diego had. She then found someone to BUILD US THE FREAKING ARCH. My bouquet was exactly what I had in mind as were the flowers on the welcome sign, the arch, the boutonnieres, and my cake. My cake is the sexiest cake I've ever seen and I have Atalanta to thank for making our day so, so beautiful.
We highly recommend Atalanta for wedding flowers. After sharing my thoughts, she developed a vision board which was extremely helpful. She had great suggestions on sizes and quanti...
ties which I didn't know much about. We were blown away by the flowers on the wedding day. They were fresh, beautiful and voluminous. Her prices are reasonable and we were happy to support a small local business. Atalanta and her team are very talented and we would work with them again on our floral needs.
If you are looking for the PERFECT florist to assist your every possible wedding floral need and to fulfill your every possible floral wedding dream, look no further!! I cannot say...
enough amazing things about Atalanta, the owner of Camellia's Wedding Flowers (named after her beautiful daughter--sigh!!) From wedding arches, to high top and welcome table arrangements to the dining tables to the cake table. She did it ALL!!! We are from the Bay Area and had read many reviews of the best wedding florists in the San Diego area. We were steered in Aty's direction by many and we reached out in early January to begin the planning process. Atalanta was so easy and FUN to work with!!! She immediately navigated us through a virtual program on line to determine what our style was and what we were looking for on our special day. She put together an AMAZING inspiration board for us to have and adapt as necessary. The communication over the year was smooth and timely. And let me tell you, the day of the wedding, she ABSOLUTELY BLEW OUR MINDS!!! The wedding bouquets were out of this world GORGEOUS!! Our wedding was at the Martin Johnson House, an outside and cliff side venue in La Jolla. Our vision was connected farm tables with tons of candles, votives, and bright bursting flowers and greenery down the middle. The end product was more than we can have ever imagined or dreamt of!!! Atalanta elevated our dreams to whole another level and I'm still reeling about how incredibly STUNNING every thing looked. She is soooo good at what she does and I HIGHLY recommend this fabulous woman to assist you in making your wedding day dreams come true!! We will be forever grateful to her for creating this lasting memory on our special day.
Atalanta at Camellia wedding flowers is just the BEST! I'm SO happy we chose her as our florist. She offers a more than fair price, great communication, and she's just the nicest p...
erson to work with, all aside of her PHENOMENAL work!
She sketched many concept works for us, offered price quotes until we were happy, and worked around us throwing a change of plans when we changed the altar just weeks prior to the wedding. She welcomed me to her shop while she was busy, showed me around variations of flowers, and detailed how she would incorporate my something old into my bouquet.
The arch was STUNNING. The bridesmaids almost squealed when they saw the bouquets because they were so beautiful!
I would choose Camellia flowers ten times over!
Dear Atalanta,
First and foremost we would like to thank you for doing an EXCELLENT job on our flowers for our Wedding Day! Everything turned out perfectly from ceremony to recept...
ion. Thank you also for meeting with us back in December as this wedding was part destination for us out here in San Diego. I absolutely loved the purples you used in the bouquets, the arch was decorated elegantly as well as the Sofreh table just WOW! You blew it out of the park-as we received multiple compliments from our guests. June 9th, 2018 at Paradise Point Resort in San Diego was a day my husband and I will never forget! It went by way too fast though. We will be using you in the future for sure! Anyone who needs a wedding florist-this is where to go!!!
Thank you so so much again!!

Atalanta was a delight to work with. She really listened and paid attention to what my husband and I were looking for in wedding flowers - we wanted all flowers and no greenery and...
that's exactly what she gave us. After our very first meeting, she sent us a quote of how much our floral needs would cost, AND she made us an inspiration board with floral ideas that would fit our wedding - talk about going above and beyond! She has mastered the balancing act of giving her clients her professional opinion while giving her clients what they're looking for. Camellia Wedding Flowers and team arrived on time to drop off bouquets and corsages to my hotel, they were also on top of moving our flowers from the ceremony to our reception venue. Hiring Atalanta was honestly the easiest vendor decision we made, we were so happy that we trusted her with our flowers! Thanks so much, Atalanta!!
Atalanta & Camellia Wedding Flowers blew me away and all of the wedding guests were amazed by her beautiful wedding flower creations. I anticipated the wedding flowers would be bea...
utiful, but her work is phenomenal. I was lost for words when I walked into the chapel to walk down the aisle, and my jaw almost hit the floor when I saw the reception ballroom for the first time. I had met with Atalanta several times to discuss the color theme and centerpieces for my wedding (ivory & greenery with pops of wine/burgundy). She went above and beyond to make sure the stands, decor, vases, and flower arrangements were what I was envisioning, within my budget, and repurposed at both the ceremony and reception. She really cares about her client's needs and the quality of her work is unmatched. Set up a meeting and hire her for your wedding or event! You won't regret it.
I can’t express how much I absolutely loved all my wedding flowers. I was overwhelmed with how magical the flowers looked. I wanted a combination of roses and orchids to match my w...
edding colors of teal and purple. Atalanta was so great to work with and she listened to exactly how I wanted my flowers to look. She made an inspiration board and even worked with me to do a mock centerpiece to ensure that we were both on the same page. She truly loves what she does and it definitely shows.
My arch and petal aisle were breath taking and my centerpieces were perfect. Our bouquets were amazing. All the flowers were fresh and beautifully arranged. Our sweetheart table was repurposed with our arch flowers and looked stunning. She decorated our tablets with lovely teal votives and candles which went perfectly with the flowers. Atalanta also added orchids to my wedding cake.
Everyone kept complimenting the flowers and were excited to take the centerpieces home. In fact, at the end of the night, one of the servers at our venue, told me that she works lots of weddings and hands down my flowers were the most beautiful she had ever seen. I can’t thank Atalanta enough for making my flowers such a memorable part of my wedding day.
Atalanta is amazing!! I had a vision in my mind of how everything would look & Atalanta just took it to another level! She knew I wanted lots of large flowers in shades of orange &...
that was exactly what I got! She did it in such an elegant & beautiful way, that I'm still in awe of how much I loved all the arrangements. Especially my bouquet! I wish I could've kept it forever! I truly recommend her for any floral arrangements, big or small, for an event or for a special someone! Thank you Atalanta.
Atalanta was amazing and did a beautiful job with our flowers!! She took exactly what I was envisioning and made it a reality. I knew I would love working with her the first time...
I met her when she gave my color theme a name (Peaches & Cream + Tangerine Dream)! I highly recommend!!!
Wow! I cannot say enough greats things about Atalanta and her work. I was planning my wedding from the Bay area, but from the beginning, she has been more than accommodating to m...
y schedule and helpful in creating a stunning vision for my wedding. I knew from our first conversation on the phone that she had to be my florist. What made her stand out from the rest was how she created an inspiration board after our first talk to ensure that we shared the same vision. She was always incredibly responsive to any questions and concerns and I knew I was in great hands. Sure enough, on my wedding day, I was absolutely blown away by my floral arrangements! I loved every single detail and my guests raved about the flowers all night. I highly recommend Camellia Wedding Flowers...you will be so happy with your decision!
Wow!! Atalanta is amazing! She did all floral arrangements for our wedding at the US Grant Hotel downtown. It was truly spectacular and exactly what my wife was looking for. Very p...
rofessional, positive, and creative throughout the whole process. Every time my wife met with Atalanta, she came back smiling with stories of her inspiration boards and floral examples. The wedding was beautiful. Her friends and even her father were helping late into the evening. They all worked great together! The reception included 13 or 14 tables and other areas with big and small arrangements. She can handle big events and you won't be disappointed. We loved working with her and visiting her shop in OB. Prices are great too. Thank you, Atalanta!!
Where do I begin?! Atalanta is a flower GOD. I met with her knowing nothing about flowers, but I had a general idea of the style I wanted. She was so great and showed me different ...
and unique ways to achieve the look I wanted! I also expressed my opinion on the type of vases I wanted for the reception, and while she didn't carry them in her shop, she searched around and rented from other florists and got EXACTLY what I wanted.
I basically told her to do her thing on the flowers since I didn't know much, and man she delivered! She showed up the day of the wedding and my jaw dropped... They were the most beautiful flowers I've ever seen!!! Once I get the wedding pictures back I will certainly upload them for you all to see.
Also, working with Atalanta was so much fun. She's friendly, and very responsive to your inquiries! She even met me on a Sunday before I flew back home (it was a destination wedding).
Pick Camellia Wedding Flowers for your wedding, I promise you won't forget it!
Atalanta was so great to work with. She was patience and interested in ensuring the flowers were just as I wanted them to be. The flowers were stunning.
My bouquet was beautiful. The roses were a little wilted/brown in some areas but for a beach wedding it was fine.
First I have to comment on the excellent customer service. I knew exactly what flowers I wanted and Atalanta (the owner) was incredibly patient with me and ended up realizing my vi...
sion into reality very well. Also, she and her assistants delivered flowers to my house, the ceremony site in Balboa Park and the reception site in La Jolla and did all of the tear down and clean up after the ceremony. I was really worried about the flower logistics but everything went without a glitch – they took care of everything! The prices were also very reasonable and Atalanta is incredibly friendly and a pleasure to work with.
In terms of the flowers themselves, the bridal bouquets were exactly what I wanted and absolutely stunning and fresh. They did an incredible job with the ceremony site, completely transforming it. The ceremony decorations completely exceded my expectations! I had only two small complaints. First, reception centerpieces weren’t very fresh, such that even at the beginning of the reception they were looking a little sad and wilted. Second, I made it very clear that I wanted “movie star” roses for the centerpieces, but got plain orange ones instead. Easy mistake to make, but all the other flower shops I considered seemed to know the difference (they were also more expensive though, so it's a fair trade off I guess). Overall, we were very happy with Camellia Wedding Flowers and recommend them to couples on a budget who want personal attention and beautiful flowers.
Atalanta is the owner and she is very talented and sweet. I had a great experience with her and all of the flowers looked amazing. I definitely recommend her!
