Colonial Florist & Antiques

Donna did an amazing job with the florals for our wedding day! She came highly recommended by our planner and venue and it's clear from all the reviews she is highly regarded by many! I was that bride that had a moment of worry set in about the florals the week before the wedding. She was very reassuring and did her best to include all of my favorite flowers (even some that are out of season). I felt very at ease that she knew our team of vendors and executed day of with no trouble. She was also very willing to work with me on my vision and fit within our budget!

We had a fantastic experience working with Donna! She accommodated several substantial changes in our plans when we changed venue locations for the ceremony and helped us repurpose flowers from the ceremony to the reception. The arrangements were beautiful, full, and larger than I anticipated. It was such a fun surprise to see the ballroom so full! Would highly recommend Donna’s services!

Donna at Colonial Florists was great to work with, even with changes along the way! The final product was everything I wanted and more! Absolutely GORGEOUS. I mean, they speak for themselves. Delivery and drop off was so easy, I didn't even know it happened until I saw the lineup in the bride and groom suites.

Our wedding day flowers were one of our favorite details of the day, and we received so many compliments from our guests. Donna was incredible to work with in bringing our vision to life - the bouquets, centerpieces, and alter arrangements were gorgeous and the color palette was PERFECT! We can not recommend Colonial Florist enough!

Donna and the team at Colonial Florist were wonderful! My mom had some strong feelings about flowers :) and Donna was able to exceed expectations! Everything was gorgeous, and we got so many compliments. Highly recommend!

Colonial Florist was so easy to work with and a joy. They made my floral dreams come true from the bouquets to the table centerpieces and candles!

Working with Colonial Florist and Donna was a wonderful experience. We received exactly what we wanted including bouquets, boutonnieres, table greenery/flowers, small bud vases for the cocktail tables, extra flowers for the cake, and candles. Donna was responsive to my emails and phone calls. She spoke with us before we had picked a florist and described what she could do and would recommend. As we got closer to the wedding she was able to make adjustments to the number of table decorations and arrangements we needed and sent me an updated invoice each time. On the day of the wedding, they drove to Leesburg, VA (2 hours away!) to do all of the setup. They returned after the reception was over and cleaned/got their items. The long drive did not cost anything extra. Donna even put live flowers in my cake since my bakery was not able to. I was so happy with how all of the lovely flowers turned out and would recommend Colonial Florist to anyone in search of a wedding florist.

Donna and her team at Colonial Florist were wonderful! Our flowers, from the bouquets, to the arbor, to table arrangements, were exactly what we wanted. They were so easy to work with and communicative. We were planning the wedding from another state, and Donna was super helpful with everything. Would definitely recommend to other engaged couples!

Colonial Florist does amazing work! They provided us with all our florals for our wedding in October 2023 and we could not have been happier. It was challenging for me to pick and communicate what I wanted, but Donna was so helpful throughout the process! You can tell that she is very knowledgeable and compassionate when it comes to working with brides like me! I would definitely recommend booking them for your next event!!

The most beautiful flowers I have ever seen! I sent them my colors and pictures of my vision for my florals and they matched everything perfectly! They communicate so well and are very professional. They are very reasonably priced too! If you are looking for a florist for your wedding then I would highly recommend colonial florist!

We loved Colonial Florist!! Donna was amazing to work with through the entire process! I sent some inspiration photos to her and we chatted on the phone and she took care of the rest! She made it so stress free leading up to the wedding! She was so personable and made the experience a great one. Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone!

Th flowers at my wedding on October 7 2023 could not have been more perfect. I appreciated Colonial Florists’ fair price point and especially their customer service. Donna was always available to me via email or phone. My flowers arrived on time for our wedding and were MORE than perfect. I was so pleased and seeing all the beautiful flowers was a highlight to our special day! Thank you!! I highly recommend colonial florist!

Donna and her team are exceptional and far exceeded our expectations with everything for our daughter's wedding. Her creativity and professionalism are unmatched. The arrangements were coordinated and provided a wow factor at first glance. She completely captured our vision and displayed a level of professional grace with every interaction.

Donna was amazing and helped my vision come to life for our wedding! She was affordable and extremely flexible by letting me change up the entire floral colors & selections last minute (not that I recommend you doing that :) ). She communicated promptly and clearly, and helped make the hectic process of planning go smoothly. I'd recommend Colonial Florist & Antiques a million times - the end result of our florals truly completed our wedding day vision!

We loved Donna & her team! She was extremely accommodating, thorough, & kind! The arch & bouquets turned out exactly as we had hoped! The greens lining the stairs and fireplaces were beautiful! Overall, we can’t recommend Colonial Florist enough!

Donna was a pleasure to work with. She was timely, professional, and affordable. She worked with my budget and vision to make our wedding perfect. We received so many compliments about our arrangements.

Donna at Colonial Florist was incredibly helpful, flexible, and accommodating. My husband built a custom beam on which we wanted a large garland of our wedding flowers. We sent the dimensions and a photo of the beam to Donna and the garland she made was a perfect fit and brought our vision to life. I made additions during the planning process and she was very accommodating. She even brought extra greenery and flowers and placed them perfectly to add extra warmth and color. Donna truly exceeded our expectations. I would not have entrusted my wedding flowers to any other florist and highly recommend Colonial Florist.

Donna was so helpful and incredible to work with for our flowers for this summer. We wanted to be careful about budget and she helped us figure out exactly what we needed, with honestly very little guidance. The flowers for the ceremony and reception were beautiful and we got so many compliments from guests. We are so grateful!

I highly recommend Donna at Colonial Florist!! She was super easy to work with, her pricing is reasonable, and she instantly understood my vision for my wedding. I wanted something a little different for my reception table flowers and she came up with a creative solution and it turned out gorgeous! Donna was also great at repurposing some florals from my welcome dinner into the wedding the following day. My wedding flowers were styled beautifully, great quality, and just absolutely stunning!!

We definitely would recommend working with Colonial Florist! Donna was very helpful and responsive in our phone consultation and email communication. The delivery on the wedding day was prompt and the flowers turned out even better than I had imagined! The arrangements were beautiful and everyone commented on how lovely they were. Colonial Florist did a wonderful job!

Colonial Florist came highly recommended from a coworker who recently got married in the area and did not disappoint. I thought prices were reasonable and the process was smooth even with booking/planning from a different state. Donna was an absolute joy to work with and we received several compliments on the florals the day of!

Beautiful flowers and arrangements!! Couldn't have asked for a better consult and product!

Donna at colonial florist is amazing. I was out of state when planning my wedding and I ended up sending her a couple ideas and she took control and made beautiful bouquets! Will definitely be recommending her to anyone I know who is getting married in central VA. She was professional and easy to work with at all stages of the process.

Beautiful flowers and wonderful service. They made our day all the more amazing 💕

Donna far exceeded expectations- we were going with a relatively small floral order (as it was combined with another vendor's botanicals) and she was super willing to work with us. Very professional and responsive. She immediately understood what we were looking for and also was creatively aware of the need to complement the other centerpieces. My bouquet was also epic, lots of great spring colors and movement and she brought the garden indoors with our chuppah. Her shop is comes off as unassuming but she accomplished so much in bringing our venue to life with greenery and flowers.

We could not have had a better experience!!! I wasn’t super particular about the specific flowers and Donna knocked it out of the park!!! I told her a general vision and ideas for our florals and she exceeded every single expectation!!!! They were always super responsive and prompt with any questions or changes that occurred through the planning process!

Colonial made the process of decorating very easy! I didn't have a planner until day-of, but she made great recommendations based on what I thought I wanted and was able to bring our vision to life. Everything was perfect the day of the wedding and what I imagined. High quality flowers and extremely reasonable pricing. Highly recommend!

I cannot recommend Donna and Colonial Florist & Antiques enough. I knew I wanted floral to be the main component of the decor at our wedding, so I wanted to find the right florist who could understand and execute what I had in mind, while also not costing half my wedding budget. No small feat, but Donna delivered! From our first call, I could tell she just "got it". She sent me over what she envisioned based on our conversations and it was spot on, and even better her pricing is so fair. She told me she doesn't believe in taking advantage of people and I really appreciate that as it is a hard quality to find nowadays. On the day of, everything arrived on time and was absolutely STUNNING. I had multiple guests ask just how much I had spent on the floral because it was so gorgeous. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Colonial Florist!

Donna was absolutely wonderful to work with and made my floral vision come to life so beautifully! As someone with little knowledge of florals, Donna helped me immensely by listening to my vision and looking at inspiration photos to help me come up with an incredible array of colors and textures for the big day. We are so grateful for her!

The Colonial Florist team were great to work with! They executed my vision for my wedding bouquet so well, and it turned out better than I could've ever imagined. They did a great job keeping all of the bouquets simple and beautiful like we wanted! I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs floral arrangements in any setting.

Donna and the team from Colonial Florist were amazing! They were very responsive in the planning process and then on wedding day everything was exactly as we dreamt it - and even better! The floral arrangements - from the bridal bouquet to the fireplace mantle greenery and candles, to the archway greenery and the reception tables - everything was absolutely beautiful and dreamy. Thank you!

Donna was great to work with, and the flower arrangements she put together looked amazing. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a florist!

If I could give ten stars for Colonial Florist, I would. Donna saw my daughter's vision for her wedding day and exceeded all our expectations. From the bride, bridesmaid's, corsages and the flowers at the venue, Donna knocked it out of the park. Her attention to detail is phenomenal! We received so many compliments on how classy and elegant our flowers were at the wedding. Absolutely contact Donna for your floral needs..she will NOT disappoint you.

Colonial Florist provided the most beautiful flowers for our big day. My bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets, and corsages were perfect and exactly what I envisioned. Even when I needed to make some last minute adjustments, they were done without issue! Donna was easy to work with, and extremely communicative. Thank you so much for being a part of our big day!

Donna was fabulous to work with! She understood every little detail I had in mind and executed beautifully!! I was blown away by how large and detailed some of our arrangements were. They were ever more beautiful than I had hoped! Thank you for everything.

I am still in awe of how perfect the florals turned out for our wedding day! Donna was so wonderful to work with during the planning process and the Colonial Florist team did the perfect job setting up the day. From the bouquets, to the center pieces and the little accents around the venue, the florals were stunning.

Donna was very easy to work with, and we were so happy with our floral arrangements and greenery!

Donna was an absolute joy to work with. We were very specific with what we wanted as well as our budget! Our flowers were exactly what we wanted and she brought our vision to life. Her prices are great and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a florist in the area.

My flowers were quite literally exactly what I wanted!! Donna is so wonderful, and really took her time to make sure she understood my vision, and truly executed it to perfection. You will not go wrong hiring this team for your day!!

GORGEOUS flowers and incredible vendor. We hired Donna for our wedding at the recommendation of our wedding planner. Donna was fabulous to work with and the results were amazing. She really listened to my vision of how I wanted the flowers to drape, the colors, the “vibe” (for me I wanted it to look like I had just picked the most beautiful bouquet of wildflowers and WOW she surpassed my vision) and even particular flowers I wanted in it. Donna gave me a preview bouquet to look at and give feedback on months before the big day, which was great for envisioning and helping me pull everything together. As I said the results were incredible: from the boutonnières to the archway flowers to the bridesmaid and bridal bouquets, each detail was carefully done and I was so in love with the flowers day of. Donna is wonderful to work with and I highly recommend her!

My flowers were everything I wanted and more. She made my dreams come true. I sent the pictures and they turned out even better. Don’t walk, run! You won’t regret it!

Our experience with Donna at Colonial Florist and Antiques was nothing short of amazing. She was extremely kind, and had many great ideas to help bring our vision for our wedding to life. She was also very easy to reach whenever I had a question during the planning process, or needed to make any adjustments. The floral arrangements were spectacular and we had many compliments from guests and our venue owner. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a florist in the area!!!

After speaking with at least a dozen local florists, I decided to go with Colonial Florists for several reasons, and I am SO happy that I did!! From the very beginning, Donna responded in a very timely manner, and was incredibly sweet. She met with me, my mom, and my mother-in-law in person at her adorable shop to go over my vision for the flowers. I also met with her to do a trial bouquet. Each time we met, she was so kind, patient, and incredibly talented at putting together flowers that matched my vision! She puts off warm, kind energy, and you can tell she loves her job! On my wedding day, she showed up with the most beautiful flowers of my dreams, and they make every photo pop! Throughout the process, I made several changes as my vision evolved, and she truly listened to every one to make the final product! I give her my highest recommendation.

Donna was an absolute pleasure to work with. With just a few photos she was able to pull my whole wedding ascetic together. She was very kind and made time to take phone calls no matter the changes I had in mind. I would highly recommend!

Donna is a masterful florist who's arrangements really brightened up our wedding! She was so flexible and easy to collaborate with for my changing vision for floral design. I appreciated her taking the time to meet with me in person so I could see flower options. That definitely made planning from out of state easier! We picked up our wine barrel and mantle arrangements the day after the wedding and reused them for events the rest of the weekend. They even survived the 4 hour drive home and looked beautiful in our home the week after the wedding. It was a nice takeaway and reminder of the perfect wedding weekend.

Donna is the absolute best!! She made my vision come to life, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the arrangements on my wedding day. She responds quickly to communication and is very professional with reasonable pricing. Highly recommend Colonial Florist and Antiques!!

Donna is amazing! I had many changes and requests over a long engagement made longer because of COVID and Donna was so sweet, supportive and responsive throughout the entire process. She is so incredibly talented and her work turned out even more beautiful than I'd imagined. She is one of the easiest vendors to work with, you will not regret hiring her! You'll be in awe of her work.

Donna at Colonial Florists is amazing!! I made multiple changes from the I started planning to the end. She was one of the most accommodating vendors I had through my whole wedding:) My floral bouquet was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. I would 100% recommend her for your wedding

Donna was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding! She has such a friendly, approachable, down to earth personality and is very knowledge about flowers and greenery. I know very little about flowers and greenery and can be indecisive at times, but she quickly put our vision to life based on the venue, decor, color scheme, budget, etc. We even made adjustments in the color scheme and added on corsages for grandparents closer to the wedding, but she was so flexible and understanding with these changes. She also introduced us to one of her wonderful colleagues, who became our wedding day of coordinator. Donna went above and beyond to add extra greenery/flowers to empty spots in the reception space without affecting the budget. She was a big help in more ways than one and played a major role in creating our dream wedding! The fall flowers and greenery were absolutely stunning and matched our vision perfectly. We received so many compliments from family and friends regarding the floral arrangements and greenery. In fact, we loved our flowers so much, we dried bouquets and placed one in a display case/frame on the wall and another in a glass dome as decor for our home. Donna is an expert florist and has such a kind wonderful soul! 100% recommend Donna and Colonial Florist for your wedding day!! :)

Donna was absolutely wonderful to work with for our wedding! She did our bouquets, boutonnieres, arrangement on our arbor, centerpieces, and mantle pieces - as well as some extra pizazz on some wine barrels. The flowers were fresh, arrangements beautiful, and we couldn't have been happier. We had to postpone due to Covid and she was flexible, positive, and easy to get in touch with any time we had questions all along the way! Can't recommend her enough.

Donna was an absolute sweetheart. She was so kind and helpful when all I had was a vague idea of what I wanted to do. she recommended adjustments to keep me in my budget and she was so flexible with my emails of adding and taking things away and all of my venue detail changes about where I wanted things hung or draped. Her eye is keen and she was incredibly patient with me as I sorted through my ideas, which she made real. She did an amazing job!

We worked with Donna for our wedding florals, including bouquets and centerpieces. I had a tight budget and Donna worked with me to create a beautiful and classic look. She was responsive and helpful whenever I reached out. I'd definitely recommend Colonial Florist.

Donna with Colonial Florist is so talented! She was very accommodating and worked with us to put together our vision for our wedding day. Bouquets, boutonnières, corsages, arbor, table decor and so much more turned out incredible! If you’re looking for a florist for your wedding, look no further! Colonial Florist is the absolute best!

I would highly recommend Colonial Florist for your wedding! Donna was highly communicative, responding faster than any of my other vendors and working with me to make my budget work. She was flexible throughout the whole process, including when I changed my mind 5 times about the floral plan. The women who set up our florals on wedding day were so friendly and did an amazing job. Thanks Donna and team!

Donna and the Colonial Florist team delivered an absolutely stunning embodiment of my vision. They took an amorphous idea of mine and brought it to life better than I could have hoped!

Donna was a great vendor to work with. She was responsive to emails, and gave great suggestions on flowers that complimented my example pictures well. She was on time, kind, and the flowers were beautiful! She made sure to make our arch flowers moveable to then be used on our head table which was a huge help. I would strongly recommend using Donna for your wedding day!

It was such a pleasure working with Colonial Florist for our wedding! We could not have asked for more beautiful arrangements! The flowers were everything we dreamed of and more.

I cannot recommend Colonial Florist enough! Donna was an absolute pleasure to work with and made my vision come to life! She is so knowledgable and made everything from the consultation to the day-of installment a breeze. Everything was delivered on time and looked flawless. We received so many compliments from guests on our flowers. Thank you, Donna!!!

Working with Donna at Colonial Florist was wonderful! The flowers for our wedding were absolutely beautiful and exactly what we wanted. I highly recommend!!

Donna does amazing work and captured what my daughter wanted for her flowers. And she did all this through a few conversations and some inspirational pictures. They were perfect and the colors for a fall wedding were amazing.

I met with Donna prior the wedding and she was very helpful. I had given photos of the flowers for the bride and bridesmaid. She had done a spectacular job with the floral arrangements! We were very pleased. Also the flowers for both the church and venue were outstanding. Donna and her assistants are very talented. I would highly recommend them!

Donna was so helpful and kind. I loved my wedding florals! She stayed within my budget and created a beautiful floral display for my bridesmaids/groomsmen and for the ceremony cross. It was great working with her and I highly recommend her business for your wedding!!

Colonial Flowers truly brought our wedding flower vision to life! The most beautiful flowers. Colonial Florist did an amazing job of understanding what what were envisioning, and making that happen. They couldn't have been more tasteful, or more beautiful. All our guest were raving about how beautiful the flowers were and how well they went so perfectly with the vineyard!

Working with Donna was an absolute pleasure. I am one of the most indecisive people I know, and I changed my mind a lot throughout our wedding planning process. Donna was so patient and receptive with every change, and I truly felt that she wanted to make sure everything was perfect. For me, envisioning what my bridal bouquets and floral arrangements would look like on my wedding day was challenging, as I don't know much about flowers and there's not really a trial run you can do like you can with dress fittings, hair and make up and even rentals. I knew I just had to trust Donna to bring my vision to life, simply by just giving her the colors I wanted, and she definitely did not disappoint. Our guests were raving about the floral arrangements days after our wedding was over. We were surprised our flowers lasted over two weeks! We look forward to working with Donna & Colonial Florist in the future and will undoubtedly refer all of our friends and family to her!

Donna was so great to work with! We had a very small wedding with very little color coordination, and she was still able to help bring our floral vision to life (and within our budget!). She was very responsive and each piece we had turned out so beautiful!

Donna was wonderful to work with and made sure that everything was perfect for our special day! She was very thorough and even took care of two deliveries on the day of our wedding. The flowers were so beautiful. Thank you for making our vision come to life!

Absolutely loved Donna and the work she did with my wedding bouquets. The attention to detail was spot on and my flowers were beautiful!

Colonial Florist did an amazing job with the flowers at my daughter's wedding which was at the Trump Grand Cru Ballroom in Charlottesville, VA. We told Donna what we had envisioned and when we walked in-the room was magical, absolutely perfect. The bouquets for the bridesmaids were beautiful as well and my daughter's bouquet was exquisite. Nice to work with and again appreciative of the wonderful work that helped make my daughter's wedding a perfect memory!

The flower arrangements for my daughters wedding were absolutely beautiful, colorful, and elegant. We had an outdoor wedding and an indoor reception and the floral team was able to move the largest arrangements from one location to the next perfectly! We received so many compliments on the flowers! Donna with Colonial Florist was also flexible with us because we had to reschedule the wedding twice due to COVID and we really appreciated that! I highly recommend this florist!

Amazing in every way! Donna was such a pleasure to work with and our wedding flowers were simply breathtaking!

Donna was a fantastic vendor to work with during our wedding planning process. She is responsive, patient and really listens to what you are looking for. I don't know very much about flowers but I did know the type of theme that I was looking for. Donna listened and definitely delivered! I made multiple changes throughout the wedding planning process and she made adjustments along the way as requested. She is organized and her experience in the business truly shines through in her work and how she handles the constant changes that can occur with planning a wedding during a pandemic. I couldn't have been happier with my wedding flowers and I would highly recommend you book her for your wedding as well!

We loved working with Donna for our wedding. With little guidance, Donna created the most PERFECT bouquets. I got teary-eyed when she delivered the beautiful flowers on wedding day. I could not have asked for anything better. Even with all of the changes with Covid restrictions, Donna was extremely flexible and helpful. She was so kind and understanding of the changes we needed to make. I would highly highly recommend Colonial Florist!!

I highly recommend Donna and the team at Colonial. My daughters Charlottesville wedding had to be cancelled in October 2020 due to Covid issues and then her fiancé made it to the US in November. New date and new location... Oregon! Donna found 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!

We loved working with Donna at Colonial Florist and our flowers were beautiful!! She was very flexible with last minute changes with covid -- we ended up cancelling centerpieces, bouquets, and boutonnieres. She arrived on time day of to set everything up and make it look gorgeous!!

Colonial Florist helped with our wedding in October and everything was stunning. The arrangements were everything we wanted and more, and we received endless compliments! Donna was such a pleasure to work with and was so patient with me as I gradually needed more and more arrangements near the big day!

Donna was truly fantastic to work with. She rolled with all of our changes (even a date change) and set up the most stunning ceremony space. Her prices were fantastic and she was one less person we had to stress about on the day of. Donna was on time and so efficient! Thank you for making our wedding day and space beautiful!

After some unforeseen re-planning due to COVID, we reached out to Donna at Colonial Florist & Antiques on short notice and could not be more pleased with her work! After sending a brief inspiration board, she was able to bring my vision to life. 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!

We had the best experience with Colonial Florists!! Donna is so patient and really took the time to tailor my flowers to my exact vision and was much more affordable than other florists I quoted in the area. My guests were raving over our flowers. Definitely the center piece of our whole wedding!!

Early on in our planning, we had considered doing our flowers ourselves. How hard can making a bouquet or vase arrangement be, right? But then the bride decided she wanted a cascading bouquet and we decided we wanted flowers on the arch at our 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 ma
