Cameron & Fairbanks Floral Design

Mary Ellen was absolutely amazing to work with. She was so communicative and flexible. She does beautiful work. The florals at my wedding exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Cameron and Fairbanks!

Wow! That is all I can say when I think about the florals from our June wedding. Mary Ellen truly went above and beyond. My bouquet truly is the most gorgeous arrangement of flowers I have ever seen. We cannot recommend Cameron and Fairbanks enough for floral design. They were thoughtful, thorough, and delivered amazing quality florals!

MaryEllen did an awesome job with my flowers. I got married on 11/19/22 at the Publick House and she was so easy to work with. She handled everything with the Publick House which made it so easy for me on the day of the wedding. The flowers were STUNNING and exactly what I wanted. I would definitely recommend using MaryEllen.

MaryEllen did a phenomenal job putting together all of the bouquets, bouts, and corsages for our wedding. We gave her a few color/type suggestions and she put together an amazing package that worked with our budget. When I saw the flowers on the day of, they blew my expectations out of the water. Cameron & Fairbanks came very highly recommended, and they did not disappoint!!

MaryEllen did a wonderful job with our flowers for our wedding. When we first went to talk to her we didn't have many ideas of how we wanted things to look, we just knew what type of flowers we wanted and she went with it. Everything she did turned out absolutely beautiful! from the ceremony piece on the gazebo, to all the bouquets and ceremony decorations. She also was able to answer all of our questions whenever they came up. I would highly recommend her to anyone that is getting married or needs flowers for an event.

Overall I’d rate my floral arrangements (bridal bouquet, 5 bridesmaid bouquets and multiple corsages) at 4.5 out of 5 stars. The bridal bouquet I ordered was supposed to be much larger, tear-shaped arrangement; it turned out to be much smaller and not the shape I wanted when it was picked up the day before the wedding. The bridesmaid bouquets were also smaller than expected. The corsages looked great and presented exactly as ordered. Overall I was still very satisfied because the colors were very nice and it still looked beautiful on the day of the wedding.

We got married at the Barn at Wight Farm on 4.23.22 and decided to go with Cameron & Fairbanks. Honestly best decision! Mary Ellen is the sweetest and made the whole process painless and stress free. Our original wedding date was set for April 2020, but due to covid we had to reschedule 3 times and despite the many date changes Mary Ellen was always super responsive and willing to update things as needed. From our very first meeting to our wedding day I knew we were in good hands. She took my ideas and improved them exponentially and our flowers were gorgeous. Actually beyond gorgeous. I told her I liked greenery and unique looking bouquets and she made it happen! I got so many compliments on how amazing the floral arrangements looked. Hands down the best choice for flowers and greenery.

Cameron & Fairbanks stole the show at our June 2021 wedding (that's right, I felt upstaged by my bouquet)! Mary Ellen was so wonderful to work with- she took my vision and ran with it. When she had the creative idea to use ferns instead of flowers for centerpieces, I knew she was the vendor for us. The flowers were bold in color and absolutely stunning- she even grew the peonies herself! She provided gorgeous greenery throughout our venue and let's just say our guests are still talking about their new ferns :) Would recommend Mary Ellen to anyone!

Cameron & Fairbanks is simply the best! Mary Ellen is the sweetest person, and was super communicative and responsive through out the entire planning process. Our wedding florals were SO stunning - she executed our vision flawlessly. Everyone was raving about them, and they exceeded our expectations. One of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process!

Mary Ellen created my centerpieces and garland for my recent wedding and she exceeded my expectations. When I first met her, she created a mock up of my centerpieces right in front of me, within 10 minutes- I was so impressed. The final product she made was SO much more. I swear they stood 8 feet tall on the tables. My venue even said they think they were the tallest centerpieces they may have ever had there. I was blown away. We unfortunately had to postpone due to COVID, but she was so accommodating for our new date and flexible to meet with me in person, a couple months before my event. She is through and respect as well. It was a pleasure to work with her.

Mary Ellen does a beautiful job! The flower arrangements for my wedding were absolutely gorgeous and just what I envisioned! She made the planning process really easy and she was super accommodating when we had to change a few things due to the pandemic. Thank you so much!

Although I did not get to have the full effect of having Mary Ellen so my wedding due to Covid and change of plans, I felt a review was in order. Mary Ellen was an absolute pleasure to work with and plan for our wedding day. She was so thoughtful, pleasant to work with, and incredibly punctual. She got our proposal to us so fast we couldn’t believe it, and I was so excited to see it come to life. Unfortunately, we had to change plans last minute and she was so understanding and did not make us feel bad for having to do what was best for us when we changed states for our wedding. Still wishing we could’ve seen her work come to life. Thank you for everything ❤️

100% stars! My husband & I got married at Lord Thompson Manor in Thompson Connecticut on 7/31/21. Mary Ellen was a delight to work with! She is all that you hope for in being a wonderful piece of your big day- from start to finish she was absolutely wonderful. Being in the event industry, working with patient, committed, passionate and lovely people throughout the planning process is all you hope for and I hit the jackpot with Cameron & Fairbanks Floral! She was so organized and kept me updated on revisions of quotes, emails and was so fast at responding. She took my ideas and ran with them, making the MOST BEAUTIFUL bridal bouquet for me. My theme was greenery, with a small dash of white throughout and Mary Ellen nailed it!!! Instead of having all my bridesmaids and grandma/nana, Mom/MIL carry a small bouquet, they all had corsages instead. I thought back to other weddings I had been in, and I have my bridesmaid bouquet for an hour and I unfortunately I didn’t see it again. With a corsage, the girls were able to have it on all night and act as another accessory! I am SO glad I did it this way, it was a lovely addition to their gowns, and it was easy for them to save and dry out after the wedding. When walking down the aisle, the girls held onto one of the groomsmen, so they didn’t miss out on holding anything going down the aisle. For photos, the girls all switched their corsage to the wrist that was sticking out and all held onto the person in front of them. She did an amazing job with adding the white florals onto the corsage ribbons to add the most perfect amount of color! The ribbon she used matched so amazingly to their gowns, as well. It was also great that my sister (MOH) and I, were the only ones with a bouquet. My MOH was walking down the aisle alone and I wanted her to be holding a smaller version of what my bridal bouquet was to make her feel special and to honor her moment. We also had complimentary boutonnieres for the minister who married us, my father, my husband, and his groomsmen. I am so glad greenery was our floral theme- no matter what greenery stems were involved, I knew it would look amazing and go so beautifully with all the colors of our wedding, the grounds of our venue and it was so elegant and simplistic. I had all trust that Mary Ellen was going to take her creativity in any direction she wanted and picking up our florals was such a moment with her. Everything was so reasonably priced, the pickup at her shop was so easy and my bouquet and boutonniere still look amazing- drying out for us to keep. I gave her my frame and height, so she knew what size to make my bouquet and needless to say it was PERFECT, and I was OBSESSED! I can’t say enough amazing things!! Mary Ellen works so hard, and you can totally see that in her work! The organization and effortless system throughout my time working with Mary Ellen was seamless and I recommend her to anyone! I have not one negative thing to say about her, she is truly amazing. RUN don’t walk to hire her for your wedding or any special occasion! Jayne & Jordan Cartlidge

Mary Ellen was absolutely wonderful to work with. We had to reschedule our wedding several times due to COVID and Mary Ellen was very flexible and accommodating every time. When my grandma could no longer attend my wedding due to COVID, Mary Ellen offered to send her a silk flower corsage via mail the week of my wedding. It was such a caring gesture and it meant the world to my grandma and family. The flowers for my wedding were gorgeous. Mary Ellen is a talented artist, she clearly has an amazing eye for colors and textures. I gave Mary Ellen my color ideas and she created a beautiful proposal and stunning floral arrangements for my wedding. She also had great advice for different floral options within various budgets and I found her to be incredibly reasonably priced compared to other florists. We also had some unique floral needs such as decorating a vintage bicycle and she did a great job with that. I highly recommend Cameron & Fairbanks!

I can not say enough good things about Maryellen! She was so easy to talk to and helped create my vision of my dream flowers. The bouquets and arrangements were so beautiful, above and beyond my expectations! Everyone commented how beautiful the colors and flower choices were. When planning, MaryEllen was amazing at communication and really helped me visualize how everything would be. I couldn’t have been happier with how beautiful everything was on our wedding day!

Thanks for the decoration! It was so pretty!

Working with Mary Ellen was one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding. From the beginning, her creativity really shined after she created the perfect proposal for our wedding after talking with us and looking through our Pinterest boards. Not only did the proposal fit our aesthetic and vision for the wedding, but also our budget. She was very easy to work with, and even with all the changes in date/venue we had to make due to the pandemic, she went above and beyond to accommodate all the changes. We knew her work would be amazing, but when we saw it in person on our wedding day, it was even more beautiful than we ever imagined. The ceremony arrangements and centerpieces and were absolutely perfect, and my favorite part was the beautiful bouquet she created for me. We received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful the flowers were.

Mary Ellen was an absolute pleasure to work with. She helped us create our vision for our special day and perfected it. We had to make a lot of last minute changes to our day with our wedding happening during COVID and she was so understanding and accommodating. My bridal bouquet was absolutely beautiful and it was exactly what I wanted! She took my ideas and photos I liked and turned it into something amazing. She is an incredible artist! We had a small ceremony and my husband made our wedding cake, she topped it with flowers and it came out beautiful! We would highly recommend using her for your wedding florist or any other occasions! We will continue to use her all of our flower needs.

Mary Ellen is just the absolute BEST, 100% hands down, no contest. She is so incredibly talented and runs her business like a well-oiled machine. When I first contacted her, she asked if I had a Pinterest page I could show her for inspiration. I sent it, and within a day she had sent me a proposal that was just utterly perfect - it's like she reached into my mind and pulled out exactly what I wanted without me even having to do a thing. When the pandemic hit and we needed to make some adjustments, she agreed to drive a three-hour round trip to a different venue in order to still be able to do our flowers that day. We had to make some adjustments to the order as well with the new venue, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating; she even mailed a complimentary faux corsage down to my grandmother in FL who was unable to attend in person! That last bit meant so much to my family, I cannot put to words how deeply that gesture was appreciated. The flowers and especially the bouquets on the day of the wedding were truly STUNNING, I have never seen such beautifully-arranged flowers before and I am obsessed with the pictures, they really made everything just so perfect. Truly, if you are looking for just a top-notch florist who will not only make your wedding experience utterly beautiful but will also make for a completely stress-free transaction, you have GOT to work with Cameron & Fairbanks, I cannot recommend them enough!!!

Mary Ellen was my favorite wedding vendor! Her style and eye is amazing, and she has such a warm personality. While I was busy worrying and chasing down other vendors, I never had to worry with Mary Ellen. She was also so incredibly prompt at replying to my messages – usually replying within a day. I requested multiple quotes to see the costs of different flower arrangements, and Mary Ellen very patiently and diligently gave me quotes for each one with suggestions on how to make them fit my budget. She took my inspiration board and really brought it to life with the flowers. Our flowers were gorgeous, and we received so many compliments on flowers from our guests. We couldn't have been happier to work with Mary Ellen – she really made it a breeze. Thank you so much!

We had a great time working with Cameron & Fairbanks for our wedding! Our flowers were beautiful. Mary Ellen could immediately tell our style and had some creative ideas for our bouquets and table settings (ribbons, candle style, vases) that we loved. She was very easy to contact and flexible with appointment times. We definitely recommend, for any occasion.

I really can't say enough good things about Mary Ellen from Cameron & Fairbanks. Mary Ellen agreed to work with me only several months before my wedding and provided phenomenal service. She was willing to work with my budget and totally understood my flower vision. She provided example pictures for each quote she gave and was very easy to reach with any questions (and there were many) that came up along the way. I was absolutely floored by how gorgeous her flower arrangements turned out the day of my wedding. My bridesmaids loved their bouquets and my bouquet was truly jaw dropping. It was the perfect extra something to go along with my dress and veil. Guests raved about the floral arrangements both at the ceremony and in the reception. You never quite know how everything will look the day of your wedding, and Cameron & Fairbanks truly exceeded my expectations. I highly highly recommend Cameron & Fairbanks for your wedding!

I loved working with Mary Ellen on the flowers for my wedding day. She has a beautiful garden and had perfect suggestions. She respected our budget but did not compromise on quality!

Mary Ellen was absolutely fabulous. She worked within our budget to create the most beautiful bouquets and centerpieces for our wedding. They turned out better than I had expected!! The dahlias that she grows herself are incredible. We highly highly recommend her!

Thank you Mary Ellen! Your magical flower arrangements, trellis, bouquets, bouts, center pieces and more... all of them were so special! You listened to what I envisioned for my wedding day and made it happen! Thank you so much for being a part of our special day, highly recommend Cameron & Fairbanks!

I was in a Facebook group with other brides looking for a florist when someone indicated Mary’s work. From the very beginning she was extremely professional. Replayed all of my emails quickly and was very patient with all of my changes and doubts. She understood exactly what I wanted and did not disappoint me. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone who wants to have the most beautiful and perfect wedding

If you are still looking for a florist... look no more! Maryellen is the BEST, you must hire her now. She takes your vision, and literally brings it to life, but better. The flowers she used for my wedding were breathtaking, and I could not thank her enough for doing such an amazing job. Like I said... hire her now!!

I was a picky bride. I knew what I wanted, what the colors were going to be, what flowers, and all on a very average budget. I knew it was going to be hard. I knew my vision and inspiration boards didn’t align with my budget. But then I met Mary Ellen. She was the best decision I made for my wedding (aside from choosing my husband). She worked with my inspiration boards and talked to me about ways we could adapt the designs to meet my budget. When I told her I couldn’t afford centerpieces, she told me how to DIY them. She went so above and beyond during the preparation phases, that I had no anxiety when it came to my wedding day. The wedding day was incredible. Mary Ellen showed up with her team and made magic happen. She created a stunning 8ft floral hoop backdrop for the ceremony that we reused for the photo op during the reception. She even stuck around during the ceremony to help move the location of the hoop afterwards! The bouquets were stunning. The installed hanging greenery received so many compliments, and our guests had the best time with the photo op. If you have a vision and a budget, I encourage you to share openly with Mary Ellen and let her guide you to a solution! Thank you so much!!

Mary Ellen came to the rescue shortly after my now husband and I had a rather unpleasant experience with another florist. Mary Ellen was very receptive to my ideas and vision as a bride. She was also very helpful providing tips and her own suggestions based on her expertise as a florist. I was able to communicate with Mary Ellen at any time via a website/messaging system she uses. She was very patient and flexible whenever my vision changed or I had a new idea. I was happy I finally got to meet her and thank her the day of the wedding as she was personally setting up all the floral arrangements at the venue. I would highly recommend her services to anyone that needs a florist no matter how big or small the occasion, her work is so beautiful, everything I envisioned and more! As soon as we get our professional pictures back I will share the floral pictures with you Mary Ellen! Thank you so much for everything you did for us!

As a professional event planner, I use Cameron & Fairbanks consistently. So, it should come as no surprise, that when it was time to begin planning for my own wedding, Mary Ellen was the first vendor I called. With her creativity, talent, and eye-for-detail, it was imperative she was responsible for one of the key parts of my decor. She certainly did not disappoint. She took my disorganized slew of Pinterest images and created the wedding of my dreams. From the stunning arbor decor to all the centerpieces, I couldn't have been more impressed. Of course, I would be remiss if I didn't mention the INCREDIBLE eucalyptus chandelier that hung above the sweetheart table- truly a work of art. Mary Ellen went way above and beyond and I will forever be grateful to her. I would highly recommend Cameron & Fairbanks to any bride looking for a flawless, picture perfect day. Thank you again for everything, Mary Ellen!

Mary Ellen made my wedding day look absolutely stunning with her floral arrangements! Really can't thank her enough for making my wedding day so beautiful and memorable! She and her team made beautiful, unique floral centerpieces. I wanted a more natural, asymmetric look for my centerpieces and bouquet. All I did was send her some pinterest photos of what I was looking and she was able to create a unique arrangement in the color I wanted beautifully! She was also kind enough to make a “trial” bouquet for me to look at prior to signing the contract. My guests took all the centerpieces home because they were so stunning. All the centerpieces lasted ~2wks after the wedding. Some of the aisle florals lasted even longer afterwards. I shopped extensively for florist for my wedding. Mary Ellen was by far the best priced and she made beautiful, large bouquets well worth the money. The cost/arrangement was extremely clear. There was absolutely no hidden costs at all. The online payment portal was also super easy to use. Mary Ellen was also extremely flexibility. I ended up adding a lot of additional floral needs (e.g., more centerpieces, dessert table décor, appetizer décor), just days before my wedding. Mary Ellen added these to my contract prompted and delivered them all on time on my wedding day.

My flowers were BREATHTAKING for my wedding day. Mary Ellen created beautiful flower arrangements for the bridesmaids, groomsmen, and tables. The flowers were better than I imagined and complimented everything so well. She is so flexible, creative, and understanding. She is THE BEST!!!!!!

Mary Ellen is amazing. She made my wedding day dreams, a reality. She took every picture I gave and used them to create what I was looking for. My flowers, centerpieces and ceremony flowers/greenery were so beautiful and even more than I could have asked for. I overloaded her with emails and she responded to every single one of them and in an extremely timely manner. She was amazing to work with and took so much stress off of me. The online payment website she uses was extremely helpful and made everything easy and seamless. I highly recommend using her!

Mary Ellen did a beautiful job with our wedding floral arrangements, bouquets and bouts. I do agree that she is an artist. Her design for us was romantic, elegant and whimsical. Completely nailed my vision. I only gave 4 stars, because of organization: 1) As the wedding neared, Mary Ellen admitted she forgot to send me a second mock up of the flower changes (I was so busy with final wedding plans I didn’t notice). She did produce a mock up 10 days before the wedding and was very prompt with the additional changes that I needed to make. 2) I had to review the contract several times because if changes were made, other details were missed/added: my favorite flower (the peony) was replaced with roses and an extra bouquet was added. Mary Ellen did make the changes before payment and I did have peonies in my bouquets. 3) I realized on my wedding day that neither of us had never discussed a drop off time for my flowers. Luckily she was there in 7 minutes! I want to reassure anyone thinking of working with Mary Ellen that I did get everything I wanted and she was a very pleasant person to work with. A bride who is on top of all the little details will have no problem:)

I do not have enough words to say how amazing working with Maryellen was. She has an incredible talent and the flowers she created for our wedding were beyond my wildest wedding dreams. She worked with us on every detail, was flexible and answered my 2000 questions I had leading up to the wedding. She delivered on everything she said she would and then somehow gave us more! She captured us as a couple and our guests could not stop raving about the arrangements. She was reasonably priced and we couldn’t have been happier with her work. Hiring Maryellen would be easily the best wedding decision you make!!

Mary Ellen went above and beyond to make our day so special. She pays such close attention to detail and brought our vision for flowers at our wedding to life. I could not recommend her enough!

Mary Ellen was INCREDIBLE! She grows most of the flowers in her own garden and took my husband and I on a tour to see what was in season for our wedding (in August). The flowers were more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! Mary Ellen was so flexible as my vision changed a bit over the course of a year. She always responded to my emails almost immediately and answered every question I had for her!

You're not getting a florist - you're getting an artist! Mary Ellen is simply phenomenal. After seeing her floral designs online my expectations were high and somehow she still managed to exceed them all. Our floral arrangements were simply the most beautiful I have ever seen! They smelled so fantastic that guests would stop as they walked by to ask what the smell was! The entire experience with Mary Ellen was fantastic. From our very first meeting at her studio, to every little exchange, to delivery. Mary Ellen was the best decision I made for my wedding and I cannot recommend her and thank her enough for it! If you'd like to see what my arrangement was like, my photographer posted some photos on his blog: http://www.ryandevoll.com/blog/barbaralovesbrian

Mary Ellen did an amazing job with the flowers for our wedding. We received so many compliments on the gorgeous floral arrangements and bouquets. After meeting with me in person, Mary Ellen created a Pinterest page where she added examples of arrangements that we might like based on our conversation. It was amazing to see everything that we discussed come to life. She is incredibly artistically talented! The best part is she even uses many of her own flowers grown in her own garden! Do not look elsewhere, Mary Ellen will create exactly what you imagined for your wedding day!

Mary Ellen is such a sweet heart! She did the flowers for our wedding and everything was stunning! I was so impressed with her from the start.. We communicated entirely over phone and email and met on the day of our wedding, and she was always quick to respond and very professional. What made me pick her was after our initial phone call, me waffling and sending the few photos I had, and very bluntly telling her i know nothing about flowers, she put together a whole pinterest board that was SPOT ON with my vision. I was SO impressed with how well she just 'got' what I wanted, and I ended up using some of the pinterest pictures she sent me as inspiration and showed them to my other vendors. During the planning she really worked with us to fit what we wanted into our budget and suggest ways we can stretch our money. She also uses this really cool online platform to send quote, update our contract, make payments, etc. I loved how fast and easy it was. On the day of our wedding she dropped off and set up most of our arrangements and centerpieces. Everything was beautiful, she totally nailed my color scheme and vision. Unfortunately I had to knock a star off because our archpiece and decoration really didn't match my vision/inspiration pictures. I'm not really sure what happened with the fabric, but i was pretty disappointed with it. If it was anything else it would be no big deal, but it was such a focal point of our ceremony and our photos. I didn't see that it wasn't right until I walked down the aisle, so no time to fix it. Such a bummer! It still looked nice, just not what I wanted. Otherwise, she's awesome. Besides that one issue, everything else was stellar!

Mary Ellen was a pleasure to work with! She is so responsive to emails and questions. When we first met to discuss the colors and vision, she saw the color of the bridesmaid dresses and understood the soft & romantic look I was looking for. She used this information to create such gorgeous centerpieces and bouquets. I was so happy with the f lowers!

My husband and I were on such a high from our wedding weekend. We couldn't believe that was OUR wedding because everything was so over the top, gorgeous! Cameron & Fairbanks did such a fantastic job, and we couldn’t have asked for anything better. Mary Ellen was nothing short of amazing during the entire planning process. She was able to turn all my crazy emails and Pinterest boards into an actual reality. Her and her team are incredibly talented and everything was elegant and beautiful. We cannot wait to refer them to all of our friends!

Mary Ellen is an artist! My flowers/greens were above and beyond perfect. I went to her garden a few weeks before the wedding to pick out flowers that I liked and came up with a truly unique, artsy, and whimsical collection. She produced everything even better than I could have dreamed of. She was also very responsive and great to work with.

We had THE most beautiful flowers for our August wedding thanks to Mary Ellen and her garden of perfection. She knew exactly what would be in season ahead of time which was so helpful when it came to choosing flowers. It poured on the day of our wedding and Mary Ellen pushed through and still set up our outdoor ceremony. We felt so lucky to have had Mary Ellen on our team for our big day! We cannot recommend her enough.

Mary Ellen has a true passion for what she does and it is exemplified in every interaction, bouquet and flower arrangement she makes. She went above and beyond in helping make my dream wedding come to life, and even added a few last minute additions without issue or complaint. Mary Ellen is truly a great person and anyone would be lucky to work with her!

The flowers the day of were beautiful and their wonderful smell just filled the ceremony hall. Maryellen was easy to work with and her flower arrangements were beautiful. Maryellen was easy to work with and helped flush out how we wanted our centerpieces to look.

I can't say enough good things about Cameron and Fairbanks! Mary Ellen was great to work with and was very open with communication every step of the way. She did a wonderful job listening to my wants and needs and then when there was an issue getting a flower that I wanted she was very open and honest and had multiple options and suggestions ready to make sure I didn't get worried or stressed. I would absolutely recommend Cameron and Fairbanks to anyone who wants gorgeous flowers and a stress free experience!

Working with Mary Ellen at Cameron & Fairbanks was the best decision we could have made! For our Fall wedding we wanted to go with sunflowers, babies breath and add a little pop of color with red berries. The bouquets, boutonnieres, and center pieces were more than we could have hoped for! We would highly recommend working with this florist for your next event. Very personable, quick to respond, affordable and very accommodating! All of our guests were complimenting her beautiful work.

Mary Ellen was fantastic to work with! I loved how all of my florals came out. Beautiful whimsical wildflower/forest looking bouquets, exactly how I wanted them. Lovely centerpieces with giant statement dahlias. Wonderful pergola decor, and the bouts and corsages were all interesting and unique and perfect! She was very responsive to all my planning emails, and I would 100% recommend.

I could have not imagined more stunning arrangements and flowers for our wedding on 10/14/17- we are still receiving comments on how beautiful everything was!Mary Ellen is amazing to work with and her vision is spot on! I would highlyyy recommend Cameron & Fairbanks for any floral design needs-thank you so very much! : )

Cameron and Fairbanks came highly recommended to us from our Event Stylist, Shannon Downey, who is from the area. We loved that Mary Ellen took the time to introduce herself to us, give us a bit of backstory on how she got started in the floral industry, and showed us her magnificent gardens at her home. As a bride that changed her mind 9 million times during our nearly 2-year engagement, Mary Ellen kept up with my centerpiece changes, cake decorations, and bouquet photos that I sent weekly. She created beautiful centerpieces that were exactly what we were looking for, the bouquets were gorgeous-- mine still looks great over a week later! And she delivered it all and helped to set it up on site. Mary Ellen was always willing to meet to review what we had decided on and she created beautiful pieces for our wedding. We are so pleased with how beautiful her creations were!

The flowers were beautiful! They were perfect for our fall wedding on 10/14/17.

Mary Ellen is amazing! Personally as well as professionally. She legitimately SAVED my wedding. My venue shut down and wasn't notified, all of my vendors were booked and she was the first to call! Worst nightmare ever. I found a new venue but it was now about 3 hours away from her but she decided she'd do it anyways given the circumstances! Again just amazing. I was absolutely blown away by the flowers at my wedding gorgeous doesn't even give them justice. She definitely goes above and beyond in every single way. Thanks again for saving the day

Mary Ellen is extremely talented and made our wedding vision come to life. She is so knowledgeable when it comes to flowers and plants and had many great recommendations and ideas that perfectly coordinated with our colors and rustic feel. Everyone kept complimenting my bouquet and bridesmaid bouquets - they were stunning. I just know she carefully handpicked every single flower that went into each bouquet. The tablescapes were everything I had hoped for. The best part was that Mary Ellen is very flexible when it comes to a budget and doesn't try to sell you on more when she knows what price range you need to stay within. She even had great ideas to cut costs when appropriate yet keep with our (rustic) theme. We loved everything related to our wedding day florals - Mary Ellen is such a creative, natural talent. She was such a pleasure to work with and helped make our special day absolutely perfect!

Absolutely outstanding job! Cameron & Fairbanks goes beyond expectations and enters into a fairytale! All the flowers for my wedding were exactly what I dreamed of, I would highly recommend this vendor :)

Mary Ellen Fairbanks is phenomenal! When I was initially searching, she went above and beyond by presenting us with Pinterest boards of possible floral arrangements. She created a stunning look that was perfect for our wedding. Then, there was a problem where she couldn't reach me but she kept trying and we got the flowers for our wedding!!!! This vendor is absolutely the best. I fully recommend Mary-Ellen Fairbanks for your wedding.

Absolutely loved my bridal flowers. Mary Ellen was so sweet and wonderful to work with. She has such great ideas and you can tell she genuinely loves working with flowers and creating beautiful arrangements. She was very good about listening/ understanding my own ideas and visions and bringing them to life. I am beyong pleased with how everything came out. Thank you Mary Ellen,

Mary Ellen is a floral genious! she not only makes time to talk to you but is also prompt at answering any questions or accommodating any changes you want to make. My bouquet was beyond beautiful and she did everything we asked. she is highly recommended!

There are simply not enough words to thank Mary Ellen of Cameron & Fairbanks Floral Design for the beautiful arrangements she made for our wedding day at the Salem Cross Inn. From the moment I saw her online portfolio, I KNEW Cameron & Fairbanks was the vendor for me. Her creations are organic, unique, and truly breathtaking,. The planning process couldn't have been more easy, as I gave Mary Ellen a few ideas and she RAN with them. Each time , I found an idea or unique flower vessel, such as mason jars, mugs, milk glass, or brass candlesticks, Mary Ellen found a way to incorporate them into our wedding without second guessing my vision. Her flowers truly turned our venue into a "wedding" and I can not even begin to tell you how many guests commented and inquired about our flowers ( Which by the way, our show stopping dahlias were grown in Mary Ellen's own garden!) The arrangements, bouquets, and flower adorned gazebo were an absolute dream. Not only is Mary Ellen professional, but she's the sweetest vendor to work with. If you want a unique and incredibly talented florist, look no further than Cameron & Fairbanks. I am trying to find more events to plan just to work with them again :)

I cannot say enough great things about Cameron & Fairbanks. Mary Ellen is the absolute best. A friend of mine knew her from a previous job and told me to check her out when I started my search for a florist. After looking at her website and our first contact via email, I knew I wanted to work with her. We visited her adorable home studio where we talked about what we were looking for, and she walked us through her gorgeous gardens where she grows many of her own flowers. FYI for fall brides - she has some of the most beautiful dahlias I have ever laid eyes on. She took me to the Boston flower market with her to check out what would be in season for my wedding a year in advance. Every time I met with her, she gave me a couple flowers from her garden to take home (aka, she is the sweetest). She totally understood my vision and was extremely thorough with describing what everything would look like. I am the girl who has dreamed about her wedding since she was little - flowers were SO important to me, but our budget was quite modest. Mel had absolutely zero problem working within our budget. She got us exactly what we wanted for exactly what we wanted to pay. I never had to worry about a thing with her through all the planning. I can't even find the words to describe her talent - I cried when I saw my bridal bouquet on my wedding day. Cried!! It was beyond words. Everyone gushed about how beautiful our flowers were. I can't wait to get our photos back so I can see them again! She is just the best.

I would highly recommended Mary Ellen to anyone and everyone. Besides that fact that her bouquets and arrangements were breathtaking, she was incredible to work with. I amended my order 3 times, the last time only a week before the event. She was extremely flexible even with all my changes. All I could hear after the wedding was how beautiful all the flowers were. My bouquet was everything I dreamed about and more. I couldn't have made a better decision than to choose her for our wedding.

Going into the wedding, flowers were not an important decision for us. Our wedding planner worked with the florist through some basic questions to design the flowers. Now looking back - we got lucky to have such a great florist. The white arrangements in the barn setting on the home page are ours and they were even more beautiful in person than in the pictures.

We had a backyard wedding in North Brookfield in August, and used C&F to handle our flowers. Mary Ellen was great to work with and she created beautiful bouquets, boutineers, hanging mason jar arrangements, as well as some table arrangements for a few tables and even in our restroom trailers! She gave us such a great deal and we got many comments on how lovely the flowers were! I would definitely recommend using Cameron and Fairbanks if you are planning a wedding!

From the moment I saw Cameron & Fairbanks at the LoveSick Expo I knew I wanted them to do the flowers for my wedding; I had never seen anything so unique. From the very beginning Mary Ellen was unbelievably helpful; she had me create a board for her to view on Pinterest of flowers I liked and then she created a board of ideas for the type of flowers she would arrange. I wanted to use assorted milk glass for all of my table arrangements and Mary Ellen did a beautiful job working with each individual piece and coordinating the pieces together on the tables. Finally, on the day of the wedding, I realized I didn't plan for one of the boutonnieres I needed and Mary Ellen had everything she needed to make one onsite. I could go on and on regarding how much I loved my flowers. I cannot recommend Cameron & Fairbanks enough!
