City Iris

Dream into Reality- If you've dreamt of what you expect to see when you walk into your wedding day, I guarantee that Patrick from City Iris will make it seem like you're still dreaming when you walk in. I am a very visual person, so it was hard for me to verbalize what I imagined in my head. My theme was Winter in Old New York and the best I could offer were adjectives: Classic, elegant, shimmer/sparkle, clean, romantic and warm, which translated into effortless elegance. Patrick did more than deliver, he created a wedding that met and exceeded what I imagined- and then some. He was enthusiastic, creative, sweet, fun, and supportive. No question or detail was too small, nor did he let me overlook things I never would have considered. He listened, offered alternatives, guided but never pushed, and was sensitive to our budget. I could speak for hours about the magical feeling of his event design, his eye for detail and his ability to ensure grand but never gauche. The two best testaments I can give about his work is to say that 1) When I walked in, I got choked up by how beautifully stunning everything looked/felt, and 2) My mother walked in not realizing ours was the only wedding that day at the Boathouse and exclaimed "Wow, whose ever wedding this is, they really went all out on these amazing flowers and decorations!" She was more stunned when I clarified it was indeed our wedding. Patrick did such an amazing job all around, that hindsight being 20/20, I could have eliminated my coordinator. Patrick is more than a florist and/or event designer, he is an artist and a dream whisperer--and now a friend (-: p.s. Effortless Elegance superseded!

I met Patrick at an event I was working in NYC. He had done all the florals for the event and I had just begun my wedding planning process. It was fate when we met. I loved his energy and creativity. He absolutely NAILED my vision and exceeded my expectations. I wanted bright colors, but for the fall and he truly was the cherry on top for my wedding weekend. I left the creative process up to him with some inspo photos, but I fully trusted him. He is fun and so amazing to work with. I wish I had more events to plan just so I can work with him again!!

Patrick is an absolute dream to work with. We showed him some designs and ideas we had and with the very little I gave him, he created exactly what we dreamed of. We got compliments from everyone of the unique flowers that were included and the dreamy way they presented. I cannot recommend him more and would always go to him for floral arrangements and design.

Patrick is a rock star!!! He and his team created the most beautiful flower arrangements and ceremony arch for my wedding in June 2023. Their attention to detail and overall execution was flawless. Additionally, they have some of the best "bedside manner" in the biz. Patrick was patient and thoughtful as my vision and budget evolved over the course of the eighteen months we worked together. He answered every question I had meaningfully and was eager to bring my vision to life while also respecting my budget limitations. I cannot recommend him enough to any couple looking for a florist for their big day. P.S. In addition to doing my wedding flowers, Patrick also consistently provides the florals for my company's work events. He can do it all, truly!

Patrick is a complete genius. From the very first call, he was kind, attentive, and a delight to work with. We connected on my romantic vision immediately. We shared pictures leading up to the big day but even the preview did not prepare me for the gorgeous arrangements. My bouquet and the candy colored sprays with pinks, red, purples, and blues were STUNNING. He stayed until the ceremony to ensure every detail was perfect. My guests were in the awe of the florals and it was beyond my wildest dreams. I cannot recommend Patrick and his team enough for all they did to make my day completely perfect. Florals for Spring! Groundbreaking!

Patrick from City Iris is one of the sweetest people I have ever met. From the moment my wife and I first spoke with him on the phone, we knew we wanted to work with him for our wedding. He exudes kindness and generosity and has the most infectious personality. On top of that, he did a fantastic job of helping to execute our vision for our wedding flowers. He stayed flexible every step of the way, even when we thought we might change our entire color palette at one point. He created gorgeous candleholder centerpieces and an archway, which he effectively used in the ceremony and the reception, and his bouquets and corsages/boutonnieres looked stunning. We’d wanted a deep purple color palette and were concerned about getting the right shades in combination. Things could have skewed too pastel or too blue, but Patrick struck the perfect balance. Right before our preview, he added a flower he hadn’t originally planned to include (purple anemones). His instincts were spot on, and this flower (as well as the others he chose) ended up being exactly what we wanted in terms of color. He understood the vision and wasn’t afraid to toss new ideas our way. It was easy to put our trust in him and we are so grateful we did!

Patrick is an artist and we absolutely loved working with him. We got so many compliments on our beautiful fall flowers. Patrick provided flowers for both our church ceremony and our reception. More than anything, Patrick was extremely thoughtful and easy to work with. I'd recommend him to anyone. Patrick thank you for making our spaces so beautiful!

Patrick is incredible. We wouldn’t exactly call ourselves “flower people” and he went on the journey with us to figure out the perfect look and feel of our flowers for our special day. Not only is he incredibly talented and extremely professional, but he is also a genuine, kind and sincere person which only elevated our experience working with him. Patrick - thank you for sticking with us through our journey - EVERYTHING was perfect and stunning!

I never write reviews. Let’s face it, City Iris doesn’t need another glowing review. But the three areas where our wedding was held were simply magical. That’s all I have to say.

Incredible. Patrick totally understood what I was going for when I explained to him what I wanted and made my vision come to life. My wedding flowers were GORGEOUS and reasonably priced. My mother-in-law texted me later saying, "The bouquets and corsages and centerpieces were the nicest I've ever seen." Definitely choose CityIris.

We are so glad that we hired CityIris to do our wedding florals! Patrick has an incredible eye and taste. He instantly understood our slightly unusual vision: moss covered flowering plants as opposed to cut flowers. The reception area looked even better than we had imagined. Beyond that, Patrick went above and beyond the call of duty in so many ways, including helping us with some logistical issues. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, he was incredibly patient and generous as I ran many aesthetic decisions by him which had nothing to do with florals. Through these exchanges, I came to trust his taste so much that we ended up giving him very few directives and letting him decide the rest; he executed everything masterfully. For our chuppah decoration, we said only that we wanted green hanging amaranthus. We are so happy with how they turned out. He even repurposed our excess tablecloth fabric to make a chuppah covering. I left the design of my wedding bouquet completely to him, and he surprised me with an incredible bouquet that I loved more than anything I’d seen. I highly recommend CityIris to anyone, and will certainly be calling whenever I need flowers of any kind in the future!

We absolutely loved our wedding flowers! We chose lavender and eucalyptus for our bouquets and thanks to Patrick they were beautiful! The centerpieces, arch decor and all the other flowers were also perfection. We received so many compliments about the colors, style and overall look of the flowers . Will definitely use Patrick again!

Patrick understood what I wanted from our first conversation. He went above and beyond during the entire process through execution. The flowers came out better than I could have ever dreamed. He truly cares. It will be one of the best decisions you make for your wedding to hire him as your florist!

Patrick was so wonderful to work with. I sent him some examples of what I liked from Pinterest and he took all of them into consideration and created my dream florals for our wedding. The flowers were gorgeous, so fresh and lush. Patrick also created our seating chart/welcome sign and table numbers. Anything I threw at him, he knocked out of the park and went above and beyond with it. The setup for our ceremony wasn’t as pretty as the venue had initially promised us, but Patrick brought extra flowers and went to work to make it beautiful for us. I would highly recommend him over and over again. He was a dream!

Book Patrick with confidence! He is an amazing florist - super professional, responsive, and pays close attention to detail. Patrick goes above and beyond to make sure your vision comes to life. We had a smaller wedding with blush-themed florals and it was perfect. I recently lost my dad and wanted to incorporate a piece of his jeans in my bouquet so he could be with me as I walked down the aisle. Patrick made a beautiful ribbon from the fabric I gave him. He went above and beyond to make this special for me. I cannot thank him enough for all his hard work - everything was beautiful! Highly recommend - you can't go wrong here!!

I hate to play favorites, however, Patrick was absolutely my favorite vendor! He was prompt to reply on my emails, worked with me to come up with a plan for the flower design, and followed through wonderfully on the day. We wanted an earthy and minimal tone to the wedding. Patrick killed it! My wedding was so beautiful! I cannot thank him enough for the amazing job. He stuck around a little bit to make sure everything was good. My mother after a few glasses of wine loves to dance and Patrick even jumped in to dance a little with her! Huge added bonus to see my mom smile and having a good time. The flowers and décor was beautiful and everyone at the wedding and on my Facebook commented how classy it was and how stunning everything turned out. Thank you Patrick 100000x!!! My wedding could not have been the same without you!!

Not only is Patrick one of the most lovely, kind and joyful people I have ever met, he is also an incredibly thoughtful and dedicated floral ARTIST! I knew from our first communication via email that we would become fast friends and I fully trusted that he would execute our vision with care. He is a kindred spirit, a life-lover and FUN!! He took our non-traditional color scheme that all of our family and friends said was "quirky" (at best) when we had previously described to them what we imagined for our special day, and he made it extraordinary--bursting with vibrant color and arrangements that were so clearly crafted with love!! Every guest that greeted us told us that that we had the most beautiful wedding flowers they had ever seen. All thanks to Patrick!!! He made our day more magical than I could have ever imagined and I am so appreciative of all of his hard work, and I am especially so thrilled to count him as a new friend. If you are looking for a florist for your wedding who will listen, advise, share in your excitement and provide the most beautiful flowers you've ever seen for your wedding day, look no further than Patrick at City Iris!!!

Working with Patrick was an absolute dream! He is so passionate about his work and is a true professional. He really knows his florals and was able to create stunning centerpieces and bouquets for my wedding. After speaking with him he brought our vision of classy and romantic with a hint of holiday for our December wedding to life. He really does go above and beyond to ensure everything is exactly as you want all within budget. I cannot recommend him enough! With Patrick you are guaranteed to have stunning florals and a kind professional florist to work with.

We loved working Patrick!! He is very knowledgeable about flowers and have a real passion for what he does. He took our vision and brought it to life. My bridal bouquet was breathtaking, and the other floral arrangements were beautiful. Patrick is organized, professional, and was quick to answer any questions we had. He worked within our budget, and was able to transform the room into a romantic setting. Thank you Patrick. We definitely recommend his work.

Patrick is absolutely amazing!  From the first point of contact he was extremely professional and helpful with every step of our wedding even going beyond the scope of just flowers.  He had an amazing vision and eye to capture exactly what we wanted to make our wedding day truly a fairytale.  Patrick truly guided us in the right direction and helped us realize our vision.  I simply still cannot stop staring at my wedding bouquet in photos as it was just so beautiful!  Thank you so much Patrick for your incredible work!!!! -Lauren & Michael Pepin

Patrick is beyond amazing and a dream to work with! He and his team did a beautiful job transforming our venue for both the ceremony and reception. Patrick is professional and always brings good energy. I truly feel that my journey to him was orchestrated by divine intervention. He also worked with me to complete my wedding day look by providing several options for hair pieces and earrings--all of which were beautiful. He made my wedding day so magical. My guests were fighting over the centerpieces at the end of the night!! You will not regret hiring him. I promise. Although CityIris is based in New York, Patrick traveled to Philadelphia for my wedding :)

Patrick is such a pleasure to interact with and his flowers were perfection. Patrick is responsive, understood instantly the "fall/autumn tone" vision, and is such a lovely person! Patrick arrived early, and made the most beautiful flower arch, bouquet, button holes, table centerpieces, and adorable collars for our pups to wear! I would highly recommend Patrick - 5 out of 5 stars without question!

It was pure joy working with Patrick. From the first time we communicated, he immediately knew what we wanted—the look, the mood, the aesthetics, the exact flowers, colors and shades—and since we first met, he exuded so much warmth, positive energy and professionalism we quickly came to rely on him for his opinion and creative ideas. He was a friend to us, always quick in responding to our every concern and query, always caring, always making us feel special. In the end he gifted us with the floral arrangement of our dream—so exquisite, so happy-making, so completely ‘us’—which our guests couldn’t stop raving about for days.

Can’t recommend Patrick enough! I never met with him before the event, I had only spoken to him over email. And just from that, he completely understood everything we needed--he was super responsive and he was so easy to work with. I felt comfortable and knew that we were in good hands. On the day of the event he arrived early for his set up, made sure everything was to our liking, and was genuinely such a blast to be around. I would absolutely hire him again for any future events!

I cannot sing Patrick’s praises enough. He truly went more than above and beyond to ensure that our wedding day was just as we imagined it to be. Patrick was kind, professional, attentive, and just an absolutely lovely human being all around. He was patient, understanding, and accommodating throughout the entire process, as planning a wedding 3000 miles away in a pandemic is not the easiest thing to do! Our wedding day would not have been the same without him and we would recommended him to anyone who wants their vision to truly come to life!

Patrick was completely amazing. I had no idea where to start and he asked the right questions and made my dreams come true! My bouquet was better than I could have imagined and the flowers in the reception area were jaw dropping. All the guest were in awe with his work. You can't go wrong with City Iris.

Two of my very close friends worked with Patrick for their NYC and Long Island weddings and both recommended I reach out when I began planning. I am so glad that I did! After a quick initial phone call, Patrick immediately understood the look I was going for, and he sent reference images that were spot on before I even shared my inspiration boards. Due to covid19 restrictions, we changed our April 2021 plans by postponing our large catering hall reception to 2022 and planning a small ceremony in my parents' backyard. With this change, Patrick immediately got to brainstorming ways to make this day still feel extra special. He created a stunning bouquet for me, vibrant centerpieces, and an incredible arch covered in cherry blossoms. In addition, he used rose petals and tons of candles to set the tone. I cannot thank Patrick enough for making our backyard ceremony so much more beautiful than I could have imagined, and we are so excited to work with him next year for our large reception. If you are looking for a highly creative, professional, thoughtful and caring florist, then Patrick is your guy!

Our original wedding was supposed to be in Atlanta, GA, but due to the pandemic we had to postpone. We still wanted to get married on our original date, so we decided on a intimate 12 guest backyard wedding. My wedding planner connected me with Patrick and from day one he never skipped a beat! He created the perfect bridal bouquet and boutonniere. It was all shades of pink with a rustic flare. He was very personable as well flexible. I would highly recommend his services!

Patrick is the greatest, his knowledge and taste level are unparalleled. We obviously had to make so many changes for our ceremony considering we were originally scheduled for May 2020. Patrick was highly flexible, adaptable, and was a reassuring light in the midst of a ton of confusion and concern. He worked tirelessly, took on extra responsibility to make the day run smoothly, and our flowers were stunning! Everyone at the wedding commented how exceptional the flowers and decor was- all thanks to Patrick. Can not recommend him enough. Our wedding was originally meant to be in Brooklyn, we moved to CT, and he had no problem being there and delivering perfectly.

Patrick is so amazing - you have to hire him! I found him through a chain of coworkers who had all worked with him for their wedding and raved about him -- they insisted I work with him and they were totally right, best decision ever! From the very first conversation, he completely understood exactly what I wanted - even though I know nothing about flowers so could not articulate that vision very well -- and he delivered above and beyond expectations. We initially hired him to do a 175 person NYC wedding, but with Covid we ended up doing a really small party (5 total) in the Hamptons. He was super flexible and creative and made the event so beautiful. All of our other vendors commented on how uniquely amazing the flowers were. And the best part is his attitude - you will have a blast working with him!

June 2021- After postponing our wedding reception for 15 months, we were finally able to have the best party with the best florist in New York in June 2021. We knew it was going to be a special day, and Patrick and City Iris were one of the main reasons for it. Six months later, our wedding guests are still talking about the amazing floral arrangements. Our guests complimented the wedding, in part because of the flowers, as one of the “classiest” events they had ever attended. Patrick understood the wedding vision from our very first phone call, and respected our budget throughout the challenges of the pandemic. He also created beautiful flowers for our initial elopement in the summer of 2020. My husband and I have nothing but positive things to say about Patrick and City Iris, and I've got my fingers crossed for an excuse to book him again sometime soon! July 2020- Patrick has been wonderful to work with since our very first consultation call. He immediately understood my vision, unlike other florists. I was thrilled to see his centerpiece mockups before our wedding. Unfortunately, we had to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic. But we did recently have a small ceremony. Patrick was wonderful to work with then. He provided a bouquet and boutonniere. He also sourced a whole new chuppah for our ceremony as well as providing complementary flowers for the reception. He was very generous as our budget was very very small for this unforeseen additional ceremony. My husband and I cannot wait to use Patrick for our upcoming reception.

Patrick was absolutely AMAZING!! We had very little experience with flowers and we were confused which ones to choose, so Patrick came up with a perfect arrangements suggestions and colors for our fall wedding! Everything turned out to be absolutely gorgeous. He gave us a lot of suggestions and advice not only for flowers decorations but also for the ceremony schedule, table arrangements and seating charts

We had originally planned a ceremony at a summer camp in Upstate New York, but due to the statewide shutdown, we had to push everything back until next year. We still wanted to get married on the same date this year, so we decided to have a backyard wedding with no in-person guests. Patrick and his team did an AMAZING job transforming our backyard into a beautiful wedding space for our Virtual Quarantine Wedding! We had a colorful aesthetic and sent Patrick some pictures and suggestions. Immediately, he provided us with his magnificently creative vision. From the gorgeous archway to the cute table display to the bouquet and beyond, everything was PERFECT! We cannot thank Patrick enough for his patience, understanding, flexibility, and artistry!

Patrick was wonderful to work with. He was responsive, professional, and personable. Although my husband and I live in Florida, we got married in NYC in August. All of my communication with Patrick was via email and I did not meet him in person until he delivered my bouquet the morning of my wedding; And he was just as great in person as he had been over email! I sent him photos of what I had in mind and the end result exceeded my expectations. Choose CityIris, you will not be disappointed!!

I am so glad that I chose Patrick for my big day!!! He really did amazing job! I did not have detailed vision of my wedding, but he knew exactly what I wanted and made my wedding really stunning and beautiful. He gave me a lot of suggestions not only for flower decor, but also for ceremony schedule, location of sweet heart tables and etc. Therefore, it was really easy for me to prepare this big day! Thank you Patrick :) !!

Patrick is a superstar and he and his team were amazing for our wedding. We hit it off from the first day we met and I knew he would be our florist when he and my husband separately pointed out the same boutonniere from my Pinterest board. Patrick was very easy to work with, he always took our input into account and offered suggestions based on what we wanted and was receptive to our feedback. He clearly has a passion and vision for floral arrangements, he was able to immediately suggest flowers and a color palette that complemented our theme perfectly. We had a tight budget and Patrick worked with us to make sure our arrangements would be beautiful regardless. He did not hesitate to help us to bring everything within budget. He also went the extra mile for us. The flowers for our wedding were the wrong shade when they arrived the day before so he went to flower market at 4AM on the day of the wedding to get the flowers in the correct shade. On the wedding day, Patrick and his team arrived early to set up and everything was gorgeous. The wedding altar and centerpieces were beautiful, the bouquets and boutonnieres were full, and the colors all tied in together so well. He also decorated the escort card table, wedding cake table, and the tables at cocktail hour. Some of our guests weren't mindful and broke a few of the cylinder vases along the aisle after the ceremony but Patrick had spare cylinders just in case. He salvaged the flowers and replaced them without a hitch. Patrick checked in with us throughout the day to make sure that everything was exactly as we dreamed and let us know when he was leaving for the night. I would definitely recommend him and know where to go if we need flowers for another event.

I can't say enough good things about working with Patrick at City Iris for my wedding florals! From little more than a color scheme and a request for flowers that would augment but not overpower the natural beauty of our venue, he made literal magic happen! The centerpieces, bouquets, and floral archway he designed were gorgeous, simple, and sophisticated, and I've gotten dozens of compliments on them since our wedding day. He was also able to do all this within my budget, and best of all was a complete delight to work with. Highly, highly, highly recommend!!

We cannot say enough good things about Patrick Martinez! The man is a visual genius, and he was absolutely essential to our wedding day. When we first hired CityIris, our agreement was strictly for floral arrangements. Little did we know that we would be getting so much more. Patrick advised us for every step of the process—what frames for the table numbers would work best, the type of flowers that would complement the bridesmaids dresses, menu layouts, seating chart, etc. He also ended up finding my wedding dress for me—and let me tell you, the man has an eye for what works!! The dress was not only stunning, but it perfectly matched the tone and theme of the wedding. Patrick, in putting work into every detail, had our theme running through his head, and the result was an extremely elegant, stunning, and memorable ceremony and reception. The flowers were the freshest, most beautiful I could have ever imagined, and every single detail was attended to from start to finish. Hire this man: he’ll give you the wedding of your dreams.

Omg !!! When I say Patrick and City Iris were amazing I definitely mean it !! I planned my wedding from a distance and Patrick was still able to capture my exact vision for the special day. He even helped me with my bridal jewelry which was an absolute plus. Everything was beautiful and everyone loved the floral details. If I had to choose again I would definitely choose CityIris!

What’s better than the best??? City Iris is!! I met Patrick through a recommendation and I’ll forever be grateful!! I came to him for his skills as a florist and ended up with a mini wedding planner and therapist!! Patrick asked my color theme and then sent me on my way to get the rest of my life together. He styled me from head to toe. He handled my invites, place cards and menus. Then there were the flowers and general ambiance of the wedding. My guests are still in awe!! Patrick I’ll forever be grateful

Patrick was absolutely amazing!! We had very little vision for our wedding and Patrick came up with perfect suggestions for our personalities and venue! The flowers and arrangements were absolutely gorgeous, in addition to being very affordable. Patrick had our bouquets, boutonnières, ceremony, and reception flowers all perfect - we could not have asked for more!!

Patrick is an absolute God Send!! He went above and beyond providing stunning bouquets and flower arrangements. Not only did he do a phenomenal job with the floral decor, he also set up lanterns for an impactful and luxurious setting. Thank you Patrick for giving us more than we could imagine, including a therapist during the most exciting and stressful time of our lives. : )

We hired Patrick from City Iris for our wedding on 4/28/19. Patrick is super easy to work with and very responsive. He captured our vision flawlessly and everything was to die for! I would definitely recommend City Iris for any event if you want someone who listens to your ideas and is able to execute :)

This review is clearly waaaaaaaayyyyy overdue seeing that its my one year anniversary already! Patrick was truly heaven sent and is such a beautiful person. He worked within our budget and made our room look magical with his beautiful cherry blossoms. He was very responsive to calls and emails and was there to help me brainstorm smaller decorations I needed for the cake and welcome table. My bouquet was to die for and the bridesmaids bouquets were simply perfect. Patrick also helped with my personal styling as well. I bought an amazing hairpin from him as well as my wedding earrings. He's also an amazing seamstress and helped me redesign the back of my dress and hemmed it as well. I cannot thank him enough for all of his help. I wanted a simple aisle to walk down and he covered it with rose petals and lined it with beautiful gold candle lit lanterns. I really wish I had the ability to attach pictures to my review. If I ever have any floral needs in the future there is no question that I will go to him. If anyone ever asks me for recommendations for their wedding I am immediately sending them to City Iris! I will Patrick nothing but the best and hope that his business continues to blossom [pun intended :) ].

Patrick did an amazing job with our florals and visuals for our fall wedding. His suggestions of colors and shape were perfect and he was so supportive throughout the whole process. We can't thank him enough for making our day extra special!

Patrick is extremely personable, thoughtful, and he's wonderful to work with! I wish I could give him a hug again right now. (So sorry this review is long overdue!) He understood our low-key rustic style and his expertise elevated the ambiance of our wedding. I met with a few florists and he was realistic in terms of working with our style and budget. It was important to us that we were able to work with someone who not only takes pride in their art but also understood our needs. It was refreshing that he listened, was realistic while also enthusiastic during this happy and stressful time. Please meet him. If I ever need another event, I will contact him again!

Patrick was above all the best vendor that I worked with throughout my entire event! He was very personable, flexible and accommodated any changes that I had up until the day of the event. I was on a budget and even with my price range Patrick went above and beyond to make my floral arrangements be out of this world amazing!! Patrick’s suggestions for any question that I had resulted in something more sophisticated, unique and something seen in a movie or a postcard. He made my event be over the top and I received compliments from all who attended. Patrick was always available by phone and e-mail and when he was not, he promptly returned my messages. Patrick’s personality and the way he conducts his business is superb and he sets the bar high. He made my experience be as memorable as could be. Patrick also added extras which I did not think of, but of course that made my event even more fabulous. I can not thank Patrick enough for all of the effort, time and kindness that he has dedicated to making my event one of a kind, but THANK YOU Patrick!!

Time flies but our memory stays with our beautiful wedding and all the efforts behind it! One sentence to summarize it if you don't want to read it through: Patrick is really accommodating and did everything way beyond our expectation. Back in April 2018, we were really stressed at that time, and we had no idea on how to do our wedding. We searched through internet crazily, browse through reviews and images. We nailed it down to three florists before we started to schedule appointments. On the first appointment, Patrick was really patient on getting to know what style, color, texture we wants, basically very detail-oriented. He also worked with our budget without a frown. He sent back a proposal next day, and we went though several rounds of revising since we added new request each time. Here comes the time for samples. Patrick did the centerpiece sample as illustrated in the proposal but we don't like how this style shows on pictures. Therefore, we made a radical change to the proposal, and what's really awesome about Patrick was that he patiently rewrote the proposal from bottom, and took time to do another full sample session for us, given that he had so many weddings in summer. He also helped us on our wedding design including invitations, menus etc. very inspirational! He is really driving for satisfaction and perfection. On the wedding day, Patrick arrived on time to do arrangement for flowers, candles, aisle-runner. They turned out to be more beautiful that we saw in sample session, and our guests love those flowers!

Patrick from City Iris did the most amazing job with the flowers for our November wedding. It was super affordable and absolutely gorgeous. Patrick was so accommodating and he nailed the look I was going for with very little guidance from me! He was a dream to work with and I was so happy with how the flowers came out. Highly recommend if you are looking for an affordable, high-quality option in NYC.

Working with Patrick and CityIris was an absolute dream. The flower arrangements were stunning yet affordable, and Patrick genuinely listened to what we wanted and delivered bigtime. The chuppah was breathtaking and like stepping into a dream. Patrick also provided succulents and place cards for all of our guests, which came out beautifully. Patrick went above and beyond and met me at the hotel the morning of my wedding to drop off my bouquet; he even cut part of my mother's lace veil from her wedding on site to wrap it around my bouquet. He was a delight to work with and I have been recommending him to everyone I know!

Patrick is 👏🏼 AH 👏🏼 MAZ 👏🏼 ING! Incredibly personable, passionate about his work, and an exceptional eye for style. Don’t bother shopping around elsewhere, go with City Iris / Patrick - he’s a star, you will not be disappointed.

Patrick was absolutely incredible. I had a very specific, unique aesthetic and Patrick jumped right on board and ran with it. Throughout the process he checked in with me to provide pricing options and made some great suggestions. Patrick provided insights on which flowers were in season and gave me several quotes for things like seating charts and table numbers so that I was making the best decision based off the market options. My favorite thing about working with Patrick was how excited he was in bringing my vision to life. On the day of, he brought me aside between the ceremony and reception and double checked that I was happy with everything. He really delivered on my ask and took the extra steps to ensure he exceeded my expectations. My ceremony, cocktail hour and reception looked even better than I hoped. Thanks to Patrick, my wedding was so beautiful and truly a reflection of my husband and I.

Patrick is amaze!! We absolutely love him. We reached out to several florists and he got back to us immediately with some ideas for our wedding. He is very creative and totally was fantastic through this process. He is quick to respond, great at suggesting which flowers is best for the month etc and super helpful (even with stuff that isn't do to with flowers!). On the day, our tables looked beautiful and so did our bouquets. He even added some flowers on our cake to make it even more special. The chuppah he built and designed for us was just beautiful - also props to Patrick for moving it around last minute as our rain forecast changed to somewhat sunny. We totally recommend hiring him! Our experience with him was so stress free :).

You will not regret hiring Patrick! Right from the very beginning, I felt so comfortable with him. He really understood what I was looking for and brought it to life. When I saw the reception space for the first time, I was completely overwhelmed by how his beautiful work transformed the space. More than that, Patrick is sweet and funny and wonderful to work with. He was super responsive and happy to work with me to get every detail just right. I can't say enough good things, you should just hire him!
