Daniel Vaughn Designs

liked Fall colors and wanted a rustic theme. He went above and beyond to create bridal party bouquets, center pieces, and archway arrangements. I could not be happier with the results as they were better than the pictures I showed him! Our wedding guests were in awe of how perfect the arrangements were. My husband (who worked on a flower farm for many years and knows his flowers) was even raving about how beautiful the flowers were. Daniel is super friendly and responds quickly to any questions. I can’t recommend him enough for any floral needs. You will not be disappointed!!

and Dan was able to perfectly articulate our vision. The flowers were the focal point of our decor and created the perfect look and ambiance. They tied together the whole event! The bridal bouquet and wedding party bouquets fit beautifully with the ceremony setting and looked like they perfectly belonged. We brought 100 tea cups to Dan and he filled them with a gorgeous assortment of flowers for our centerpieces that really stole the show! All of the flowers were fresh, fragrent, and in beautiful condition.. Not only was the work with the flowers top notch, Dan was so flexible when we had to move our ceremony inside and never tried to up sell us for the sake of charging us more. This is a business with true integrity and style and I can't recommend them enough.

t and we had to shift our date from May to October, Daniel stuck with us and reinvented what we had already created to adapt to a new venue. No detail was left undone. Every corner of space had a hidden surprise. The linens were perfect. He coordinated boutonieres for my girls to wear on their jean jackets that each matched their unique bouquets. Michael on his team created a beautiful tree draped with origami cranes that was a fan favorite with guests and the outdoor tent dripped with candlelight which made for a beautiful and romantic aesthetic - exactly what I had wanted. Daniel and his team listened to me, and in turn I trusted them to do what they do best. I would recommend Daniel Vaughn Designs to any bride!

y understood what I wanted. He was very descriptive and helpful every step of the way. I would gladly recommend him to anyone!

ly met Daniel in person since I live quite far from my venue. He was able to create my vision by sending him inspiration pictures and a few phone conversations. Daniel coordinated with my rental company to include foliage on the lounge areas and even matched the flowers for my cake to the exact picture I sent him. He included foliage everywhere - cocktail tables, cookie tables, lounge area, guestbook table & even the stairwell leading up to our ballroom!! I had to provide basically no direction & somehow he was able to understand exactly what I wanted. I HIGHLY recommend Daniel Vaughn Designs for your wedding!

h great attention to detail. He executed our vision for our wedding perfectly and all of the floral arrangements were so incredibly stunningly beautiful. All of the guests at our wedding couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful the floral arrangements were and they look just as amazing in our wedding photos. I highly recommend working with Daniel Vaughn Designs. Thank you so much, Daniel Vaughn Designs!!!

ts, boutonnieres, a ceremony/reception flower display, and candle centerpieces! Definitely hire him, you won't regret it!

ich made it so special! Each centerpiece was exactly how we wanted them, with all the flowers we requested. The bridal table was magnificent, every guest was amazed by it! Dan and his team were professional, on time and always a phone call away! I can not recommend them enough, they brought our vision to life!!

with Dan, from the day of the first consultation to the day of the wedding. He is a wonderful person and is truly talented! He knew exactly what I envisioned and my florals were BEAUTIFUL. He exceeded my expectations, which I never doubted he wouldn’t. I would highly recommend Daniel Vaughn Designs and I thank them so incredibly much for their work.

on and my likes and dislikes perfectly. I was worried about how to pull together the whole look, but, even thought I couldn't describe it very well, Daniel was able to pull my dream right out of my head and bring it to life. When I walked into my reception once everything was set, I was truly moved to tears. He was willing to hear about every little detail, plan, or concern I had. Daniel was conscious of budget when I asked him to be, but his services were worth every penny. Absolutely without a doubt the best money I spent on my wedding. Guests were raving and complimenting the flowers and design all night. I cannot say enough good things about Daniel Vaughn Designs! The man is a true artist and I'm so happy I let him work his magic on my wedding!

was so easy to work with, and I loved that I didn't need to worry about what was happening with the flowers. He was well worth the money!

but also because he just has the best personality and is so nice to work with! He's such a cool guy! Daniel and I spoke over the course of a year + about planning the flowers for my wedding. Within that time, I sent him tons of different images and ideas of florals that I liked. When I walked into my venue on my wedding day and saw his team setting up, I almost cried because they executed my vision so perfectly. I could tell that Daniel really listened to me and methodically decided which florals to bring in and which to leave out. I really needed someone with that skill who was able to tie it together in a cohesive way, while also maintaining the vibe I wanted. I told Daniel after my wedding that I wish my bouquet could stay alive forever because it was just so beautiful. In the future I will need to throw a lavish party as an excuse to have Daniel do more florals!! :)

and so much more! So many people at our wedding came up to my family and I and commented on how beautiful the flowers were. If you are getting married near State College, you cannot go with another florist. Daniel is the absolute best!!!

nce shone through his recommendations. He provided an estimate, and we did not get the impression that he was charging too much. He was the first florist we visited, and we later discovered that other florists charged significantly more. He was respectful of our budget and gave us ideas of how we could decorate an arbor ourselves by ordering voile online. He later helped us with the measurements for ordering. When we left the initial meeting, he gave me a long-stemmed rose, which was such a nice gesture. Daniel Vaughn Designs followed through with everything they said they were going to do. The flowers were gorgeous, and we received so many compliments at the wedding. I could not be happier with Daniel Vaugn Designs and recommend them highly! Being able to work with them was a great blessing to us because everything went so smoothly at our wedding.

uets and supplemental flowers. His design complimented the wedding style and the pictures were amazing! Everyone commented on how beautiful the flowers were! Thank you, Dan!

that I could relax knowing the flowers would be taken care of! When they were delivered, I was not disappointed! They looked exactly like I’d pictured!! His bouquet design BEAUTIFULLY tied everything together in such an elegant way!! We could not have been happier. There are other florist who provide cutesy bouquests, and then there’s Daniel, who creates art. Daniel Vaughn is the only way to go if artistry, elegance and professionalism are important to you. I highly recommend!! :)

king for by a handful of pictures that we sent to him. He was extremely flexible when we added additional arrangements later on, and he also respected the budget we set out. Daniel was very pleasant to work with and we are so glad we chose him to provide the floral arrangements for our wedding!

rea was pretty much a blank slate with lots of space to fill, so the task at hand was a difficult one. He turned our vision into a reality! To say it took our breath away would be an understatement. We can’t thank him and his team enough for everything they did. Daniel truly loves what he does, and it absolutely shows.

meeting, revising the proposal, and fulfilling any special requests we had. All of the flowers were beautiful and complimented the decor and dresses perfectly. I highly recommend Daniel Vaughn Designs!

llaborating with him for my wedding weekend was a major highlight of an otherwise fairly stressful wedding planning process. Daniel was so excited with our space/galaxy theme, and was full of fun, fascinating ideas to help us realize our vision. For both our rehearsal dinner and reception, we had parts of the centerpieces already made or acquired, and Daniel couldn't have been better at bringing all of the elements together into something beautiful, tasteful, and spectacularly different. He also designed an arch for our ceremony that was by far one of the most interesting pieces I'd ever seen. I can't overstate what a great job he and his staff did. Everyone loved the unique look and beauty of his handiwork. If you want a truly one-of-a-kind celebration, Daniel Vaughn is the designer you want. The man is a visionary, a true artist, and it was a joy to work with him.

ive staff there for a wedding that is custom designed just the way you want!! The brides family was from an island in the South Pacific and they wanted some of the ambiance to reflect that culture. Daniel accomplished that and more!! He did an amazing job with suggesting certain flowers to showcase the bride's wishes! He used gold washed manzanita branches designed in gold revere bowls with gorgeous orchids suspended from the branches surrounded by white hydrangeas and gold votives on the guest tables at the reception! The brides personal flowers were just perfect....white phalaenopsis orchids for her and her 8 bridesmaids each carried a stunning monochromatic bouquet of one variety of flowers that matched the wedding colors....with the honor attendant having a mixture of all those flowers and the groomsmen had matching boutonnières to each of their respective bridesmaid!!! Such a creative idea that was perfect! Daniel provided many opportunities for our input, suggestions and even revisions! We didn't discuss a budget limit with him (our fault) and when we received his proposal it was higher than we had anticipated.... NO WORRIES.....he did some refiguring and 'voila'....it was just right where we needed it to be....and no less beautiful! We felt Dan understood what we wanted and he achieved that and more just PERFECTLY!!!

rrangement. I had one Bridal bouquet and 3 bridesmaid's bouquets and all of them were cohesive and just what I was looking for. I would definitely recommend!

a blast to work with and was able to decipher what I wanted, even when I wasn't certain myself. I would highly recommend them to everyone.

box ideas, and he loved them all. He created a ceremony back drop that I never imagined would actually be possible to have. He went above and beyond the expected. Everything from the ceremony back drop to the center pieces and the details throughout. He was probably the best decision I made for our wedding day. I could not have been any happier with what he did for us.

as bouquets and boutineers for the wedding party, using pinks, whites, and a hint of silver greenery. He also provided two absolutely stunning flower arrangements to place on the front of our wedding canopy. He knew our venue and decorated the reception with beautiful arrangements of roses and hydrangeas, as well as votive candles. And the pièce de résistance was the cake topper. A few weeks before the wedding I sent Daniel a picture of a cake decorated with fresh flowers. Daniel recreated this for our two-tier wedding cake. It was truly beautiful! I highly recommend Daniel and his floral arrangements; they are works of art.

on a recommendation and couldn't be happier with our wedding flowers. I showed Daniel some pictures of arrangements I liked but quickly learned that my tastes far exceeded my budget! Given all the other issues going on in my life, I left it in his hands to create a design that was within budget, and he didn't disappoint! The flowers were absolutely stunning!! When I saw my bouquet, I was speechless! We also had flowers for our cake, and he worked with our baker (Heather Luse in Center Hall) to create just the right design....the cake looked fabulous. We went to speak with Daniel after the wedding to thank him, and when I told him how gorgeous I thought my bouquet was and that I hadn't expected something quite so spectacular, his reply was that it had to fit the bride. It was a long trailing bouquet to fit my height while incorporating the flowers I liked and our wedding colors. Not only were all the bouquets and arrangements exquisite, but the arrangements lasted for nearly 2 weeks! They were as beautiful, if not more so, than the pictures I had shown Daniel, and they were within budget. You won't be disappointed if you choose Daniel to do your flowers. I will never order flowers for ANY occasion from any other florist!

ok at any others. Daniel Vaughn is incredibly easy to work with while still being thorough. While sitting down during our planning session he went so far as to pull all of the greenery he typically uses to make sure the stems and vines were the exact shade of green that I was envisioning. His creativity truly shows in all aspects of the flowers from bouquets to cocktail hour to the centerpieces. He considers all of the details you already have planned for your wedding and makes sure the flowers add to the overall look. A quick example of this attention to detail, he provided hand towels with every bridesmaid bouquet so they could dry off their flowers and not get any water on their dresses. He and his wife were truly delightful to work with.

. Daniel was great to work with, and has wonderful input due to his extensive experience in the floral industry and with weddings. He provided great input as to what flowers would look great with our vision. We can't thank Daniel enough for his amazing work!

th understated elegance. Daniel got our vision immediately and had many wonderful and unique ideas for transforming the ballroom into a beautiful, classic space -full of flowers and twinkling with candlelight. The bouquets and personal flowers were perfect as well. The price to be honest was much more than we anticipated but I can truly say that, at least to us, it was worth every penny. I wholeheartedly recommend him and my only advice would be-save yourself some stress and just trust him- he knows what he's doing!

imeless wedding, and Daniel really brought my vision to life. All of the bouquets, boutonnieres, and cocktail table arrangements were beautiful, and the ceremony arrangements, rose petals for the aisle, and reception arrangements/décor were absolutely spectacular! The outdoor ceremony arrangements were so grande, beautiful, and elegant, and the reception ballroom looked absolutely stunning with all of our arrangements, candles, and linens, etc. Daniel and Cindy did an incredible job, and I cannot say enough good things about them. I was planning a wedding from out-of-state and Daniel worked with me and my crazy work schedule (as my husband and I are business owners), and made my vision come to life. The flowers at our wedding were perfect, and I cannot honestly articulate how amazed/happy I was with all of the flowers for our wedding. Daniel and Cindy helped make my dream wedding become a reality, and I would not hesitate to recommend them. They were very professional on the day of our wedding, easy and fun to work with, and have excellent taste, talent, and artistry. Our guests are still talking about our flowers, months later, and I will never forget how unbelievably stunning they were. Daniel and Cindy exceeded all of my expectations, and truly helped make our wedding the best day of our lives. You will not regret hiring Daniel for your wedding/event - he is a must hire!!

know who you are in order to create the wedding of your dreams.

g via phone and email. H took my vision and put it into reality-was so more beautiful than I ever imagined! Everyone was easy to work with, quality was amazing, and everything was on-time. My guests marveled at all my flowers, cake, and centerpieces! He has over 25 years experience and it showed! Daniel and team created a beautiful atmosphere and I'm truly thankful! My bridal bouquet was so gorgeous I had to have it preserved! Daniel Vaughn Designs is a MUST hire for your wedding!

lassic, Grace Kelly/Black Tie wedding at the fabulous Omni Bedford Springs Resort, with it's outdoor Wedding Grotto and in the midst of peak fall foliage. Daniel Vaughn Designs was recommended to us by Bryan Stiffler, the Director of Catering at Omni Bedford Springs as "the" floral design company to use. As always, Bryan hit the target dead center. Daniel is a very good listener and extremely flexible as the plans were coming together. We put him through his paces as the vision was solidified and he happily revised his proposals as things evolved and was always frank about some of our suggestions/ideas. On some matters regarding the size of certain arrangements, where we were conflicted, we asked Daniel's advice and he was spot on with his recommendations. Likewise, we were able to be candid with him and the result was PHENOMENAL!!! Once we were alligned on the vision for the all parts of the day - from bouquets to boutineers to accents at The Wedding Grotto and finally the reception in the Omni's stately Collonade Ballroom - we left it to Daniel and his team. THERE IS NO OTHER FLORAL DESIGN COMPANY THAT YOU SHOULD CONSIDER IF YOU ARE IN CENTRAL PA!!! And Daniel's home base was an hour from the Omni, so reach out to him wherever you are planning your wedding venue - he is a delightful, talented designer with a team that executed everything perfectly!! Wedding: 10/18/2014 Services Used: Flowers

asking Daniel Vaughn to be our florist. I can not even put into words how beautiful the flowers were. They were absolutely stunning. Just exquisite! Daniel Vaughn was a such pleasure to work with. His warmth and enthusiasm made us feel like we had known him all our lives. He listened to our ideas, looked at bridal fabric swatches, and shared his valuable advice and love of color. The result was sheer perfection. Every step of the way, our experience with Daniel Vaughn Designs was top notch.

rangements before giving Daniel my approval. I trusted him to handle this very important aspect of the wedding, mostly because I was too busy to worry about each and every detail. I made the right decision! I did not have to stress myself with the decisions, and the end result was perfection! The ceremony space and reception hall were glowing from the candlelight & soft romantic flowers. He used my wedding gown as inspiration, and did it beautifully! Daniel and Cindy know what they're doing, they are true experts and artists. I will only ever use Daniel Vaughn designs from now on and Strongly suggest you chose them for any of your floral needs.

what feeling we wanted to give off with the arrangements. I really wanted sliced limes in the large center piece vases, and he was happy to put it together. When I walked through the reception area before the ceremony, I was blown away by how perfect everything was! It was better than I ever imagined. Michael was wonderful too. He delivered the bouquets and set up the ceremony area, reception area, cake, bar, grand piano, and cocktail area in a professional and timely manner. I was so very happy that we went with Daniel Vaughn!

e reception the flowers and all the candles used in the room especially the head table was incredible. It was his idea to do an imperial table as the head table with all of the bridal party and their dates at the table and it was perfect. He took my vision of blue and purple flowers and took it even farther then my ideas. He also provided the linens for the event and they really helped lay a backdrop for the flowers. Everything was beautiful!!!

n. My requests were a bit unusual (I focused much more in greenery and foliage than on flowers), and we also had a less than huge budget. Daniel made it work, an he totally, totally got my vision. He was also completely honest, telling me when we really could not cut the budget further and still achieve the look I wanted. Because I trusted him both as an artist and as a professional, I took his word for it. Daniel also was able to provide last-minute decorations for our ceremony site when we had to move inside due to bad weather. The bridesmaids' foliage bouquets, and the grooms men's boutenieres, were just what I'd pictured. And the decor? Better than I planned. I'd been thinking single blooms on the tables, but Daniel put slightly larger flowers, and greenery, a few on each table. It looked perfect and fit the scale of the space. This was probably the best part of working with Daniel: he absolutely understood what I wanted, and also had perfect judgement about what would look amazing. I could trust him to make it look incredible- and he did. I absolutely loved every detail of my flowers and decor, and my own bouquet was the most beautiful I've ever seen. The flowers stayed fresh and smelled wonderful all through the reception and even into the next day. I'd definitely recommend Daniel to any bride or groom.

all our flowers beautiful and unique. I was so pleased to walk into our reception and see the overall look of the room. Although he was aware of our floral budget, the proposed plan for the flowers for the event was over $1500 more than what was discussed. I was able to bring this down by $500 by asking him to cut back in several areas. Make sure you are clear about how much you are willing to spend, or your bill might come in higher than expected; however, you will not be disappointed with the quality and beauty of the flowers!! I would use this florist again in a heartbeat!

all we were very happy with the wonderful flowers and remained in budget!

e week before the wedding and he was so graciously accommodating! Daniel is a wonderful man to work with!
