Colonial Florist & Antiques

. My bouquet was even more beautiful than I could have imagined and I still receive compliments on all of our floral arrangements to this day. She has a keen eye for detail and made sure that everything was set-up exactly as we intended. We would highly recommend her services!

a florist near her venue and worked out all the logistics to ensure my daughter would get her dream flowers. She is responsive, empathetic, patient, professional, and passionate about her role in your special event. I was a Wedding Planner for 6 years and I have worked 50 + florists, Donna is by far in my top 5! Look no further you found your florist!

adually needed more and more arrangements near the big day!

n time and so efficient! Thank you for making our wedding day and space beautiful!

rs. Definitely the center piece of our whole wedding!!

ceremony site, neither of which we felt comfortable handling ourselves. We chatted with a bunch of florists in the area, getting quotes for just those items and for everything. One of the major reasons we ended up deciding on Colonial Florist was actually Donna’s attitude—she was willing to work with us to make our plans a success, even as we were still entertaining options like doing the setup ourselves to try to cut costs, while some other florists were dismissive or unwilling to even consider such options. Ironically, ultimately, the costs at Colonial Florist were reasonable enough that we ended up just having them do everything anyway! Working with Donna was easy. She proposed a variety of flowers that she thought would fit with our general desires, so we could look them up and make sure they matched our vision. We also went into the store once and discussed everything, and we flipped through some catalogs to look at pictures and see if there were any additional flower types we might want. After that, it was hands off (other than confirming numbers) until the week before, when we delivered the wine bottles we planned to use as centerpiece vases. The flowers turned out stunning, and the bride’s bouquet and the arch florals were perfect. Donna delivered everything early enough that we didn’t have to stress and could use the bouquets for first look and early bridal party photos. She even left a few complimentary extras for our baker to use on the cake. A lot of our flowers were brought home by guests and lasted for weeks! Definitely a pleasant experience.

ly what you’re looking for but she is affordable and exceeds every expectation. If you want the perfect wedding flowers with absolutely zero stress and anxiety you need to call Donna. She is the most amazing florist in Virginia and I would recommend her over and over.

d how fresh and lush it was. Thank you so much! It was a pleasure working with you!

d the flowers of my dreams, for a super reasonable price. Thank you, Donna!!!

to life. I got compliments all night on the bouquets and other decor. We also rented our centerpieces from her and they were beautiful.

our wedding, I was blown away by what she and her team had put together! She truly brought our vision to life...but made it even better than my Pinterest board!

uality or the service but the design. The brides bouquet was tight and round, we requested deconstructed ( even notes it on the order contract) and flowing. The centerpieces were also very tight and they were supposed to cascade. What are you supposed to do the day off? Not the perfect experience.😞

ony tree with a sash of flowers and she brought it into reality. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

r “vision” will be misinterpreted. In this case, it turned out to be more than I could’ve ever imagined!! From my stunning bouquet to a heart-stopping mantle (truly!), I will be reliving the images of her hard work for years to come.

o help decorate our event space. Additionally, the flowers themselves were perfect and exactly as she described to us. All my friends agreed the bouquets were some of the most beautiful they had ever see. I highly recommend Colonial Florists!

nna had Plum calla lily in the brides bouquet that matched the groom’s boutonnière. We asked Donna to create all the pieces given that she is the professional, and could not of been happier with the results. It was a perfect experience.

nd went unnoticed. Even though it was unclear whose mistake it was, they refunded us the money for the boutonnières and were very apologetic. Highly recommend!!

overall vision. My now husband and I love craft beer and Donna made boutonnieres out of hops for our groomsmen which was such a fun personal touch! She was super responsive and met with me and my parents in person a few times throughout the planning process. We couldn't have been happier with how all the flowers turned out!
