We loved working with Charlotte! She has a great aesthetic and was very flexible with any changes we wanted to make as the wedding planning developed :)
Absolutely Incredible Wedding Florist!
We had the pleasure of working with Charlotte for our wedding, and she completely exceeded our expectations. From the very beginning, she listened to our vision and brought it to life with such creativity and elegance. She truly understood what I wanted and made sure every detail reflected that vision perfectly. The floral arrangements were nothing short of breathtaking—every bouquet, centerpiece, and accent piece was thoughtfully crafted and matched our style exactly. One unique and stunning touch was her use of fruit as part of the décor, which added a fresh, vibrant element that really made our decorations stand out!
It was Charlotte’s first time working at our venue, but you’d never know it! She even brought along freelancers who had experience with the venue to ensure everything went smoothly. Her level of preparation and attention to detail blew me away, and everything was executed perfectly. How lucky am I to have had her as my florist!
On top of that, when our coordinator didn’t set up the table runners in time, Charlotte saved the day. With her incredible talent, she made the tables look stunning using candles, flowers, and fruit, even without the runners. The result was beyond what we could have imagined!
Charlotte also decorated our wedding cake beautifully. I didn’t have time to search for inspiration photos, but she presented me with three gorgeous options and made it easy to choose. The final result was a cake that was even more stunning than I could have imagined!
Charlotte was not only talented but also incredibly professional and easy to work with. Her pricing was fully transparent from the start, with no hidden fees or surprises, which made budgeting stress-free. We always knew what to expect, and the value she delivered was more than worth it. Her attention to detail, creativity, and dedication made our day seamless. So many of our guests commented on how stunning the flowers, fruit décor, and cake were!
If you’re looking for a florist who will make your wedding day unforgettable with her beautiful designs, exceptional service, and honest pricing, I cannot recommend Charlotte enough!
Thank you for making our day so special!
Charlotte from Darling Dahlia is amazing! Highly, highly recommend! She was so responsive and had great ideas. I wanted something bright and fun, and she definitely delivered on it. By far, the most compliments I got about my wedding were on the flowers. My wedding coordinator kept commenting on how Charlotte's service went above and beyond what is generally expected.
Any questions?
We are so glad we chose Darling Dahlia for our wedding! Charlotte was wonderful to work with throughout the planning process—she communicated effectively, was personable, and went above and beyond to bring our vision to life on our wedding day. Her team did an outstanding job, and in our opinion, they are far superior to many other florists we considered during our initial planning stages. Charlotte's floral arrangements are not just standard or ordinary; they are true works of art and simply stunning. We highly recommend Darling Dahlia!

Transformed my vision and was so easy to work with ! Love my flowers so much!!
I hired Charlotte to be the florist for my wedding. She was EXCELLENT. She nailed the arrangements and color scheme! I was essentially clueless about all things wedding, and she provided guidance and support beyond what I had expected. She was very professional, and she always maintained a calming presence that left me feeling relieved and confident. I highly recommend her. I cannot say enough good things about Darling Dahlia!
Our flower arrangements were stunning and gorgeous. They reflected our wants, our location, and exceeded our vision. Charlotte was super communicative and open to changes as we had them. The hanging arrangement transformed our space and highlighted our natural space.
We had the most wonderful experience working with Charlotte to make our wedding floral dreams come true! She was quick to respond to any questions I had & went above & beyond to help make sure everything was placed where I wanted it for both the ceremony & reception. Our ceremony arrangements were absolutely STUNNING!! We received so many compliments. Thank you Charlotte!!
Working with Darling Dahlia was so easy going. She takes the stress from your shoulders just by having you fill out a simple questionnaire about your vision and perfectly executes it. She’ll take care of it all! Charlotte has a very creative mind and take your vision and perfect it
Charlotte is amazing!! We had a great experience working with her for our September 2023 wedding. She was easy to work with, creative, helped us stay in our budget, and was so professional. I never actually met Charlotte in person due to our personal needs, we only communicated via email/text/call, and she still absolutely rocked it and saw our vision completely. Charlotte offered many ideas and options for our flowers, and was easy to reach/responded fast throughout the entire process. I loved working with her and our flowers were so special and beautiful. We highly recommend Darling Dahlia!!

Thanks so much Daphne. I'm so happy everything came together exactly how you wanted it. The colors you picked were so much fun to work with! Such a pleasure working with you from the very beginning.
I decided fairly last minute that I’d like a professional to do the flowers for my wedding. I found and contacted Darling Dahlia Floral and from there things were effortless. I received a response in a timely manor, sent inspiration pictures, and before I knew it Charlotte not only provided what I wanted, she did even better!! I was shocked to see how stunning the arrangements were despite having an idea of what they would look like. The only sad part is that the flowers can’t last forever as they did at my wedding!! I dried a few arrangements and particularly the headpiece and boutonnieres dried beautifully. I would recommend Darling Dahlia Floral to anyone!!

Nia, I love to hear what I delivered was even better than you could have imagined. That's always the goal. Thanks so much for your feedback! It was so great working with you!
After an absolutely perfect weekend-long wedding celebration in one the most beautifully remote places in Oregon, one of the hardest things to part with were the floral arrangements from Darling Dahlia. They were seriously one the most visually stunning parts of our wedding. Darling Dahlia’s intimate knowledge and experience with flowers and horticulture goes far beyond floral design and it shows in the floral arrangements. Communications with the floral designer Charlotte were one of the most seamless parts of the whole wedding planning process. No detail was overlooked from the alter arrangements to the cake flowers and hair pieces. They were all incredibly well thought out and custom tailored according to the style we were going for and the windy conditions they were placed in. Even though the party is now over, I will be looking for an excuse to treat myself to more Darling Dahlia arrangements in the near future. If I could give 100 stars, I definitely would!

Christie!!! So much fun working with you on creating this vision. Such a pleasure to be a part of your day! I had a blast <3
I cannot thank Charlotte enough for the artwork that she created for my wedding! My family and friends were raving over the florals and I was so happy with how it all came together. Starting with my initial inquiry, she had awesome communication with me; her responses were prompt and she even provided a look book for inspo! My now husband and I had very different wishes for the florals (he wanted orange and I wanted neutrals, he wanted roses and I wanted calla lillies). Charlotte listened to us and was able to combine our ideas to make a vision- a desert garden vibe with pops of orange! It was unique to us and to our story. Leading up the wedding, I even added more florals and asked her even more questions. Charlotte was one email, call, text away. She was also very supportive and made sure that I was getting what I wanted, even if it wasn’t conventional or traditional. I’m just very grateful to her! I will be recommending her to all of my engaged friends and hope to work with her in the future.

Thanks so much Esmeralda! I had such a good time working with you. I definitely cried at your wedding. Such a dream vision brought together by two beautiful people! Wishing you both all the happiness in the world!
Charlotte is the best! We picked Charlotte as our wedding florist for her whimsical and colorful designs (her instagram is an awesome source for her previous work) and we had the most beautiful flowers at our wedding! She was so easy to work with - I'm not the most creative person so making a mood board was tough for me and I feel like she got my vibe and I trusted the expert and she totally delivered!! I had some late adds and changes that she was super accommodating around. I am so glad Charlotte was our wedding florist!!

Thanks so much Brittany! Such a pleasure working with you! You're wedding was such a dream .
Charlotte was amazing. She worked closely with us on our vision for our floral arrangement. She saw what we wanted and put in her unique touch to create a one of kind experience. Most weddings tend to be bland and the floral is in the background and easily ignored. She created a beautiful aura that felt like it was a part of the wedding for our guests rather than over or under whelming. We gave her some vague ideas and she was able to translate what we said into the exact experience we wanted and were expecting. I would highly recommend her if you have a slight idea of what you want and know you can trust the florist to deliver beauty and elegance.

Thanks so much Jordan! I had so much fun working with you on you decor. I'm really glad you enjoyed what I put together.
Working with Charlotte of Darling Dahlia was wonderful. After our first consult I knew this was going to be the least worrisome part of planning our wedding because she’s so on top of everything and her creative work is fantastic.
Charlotte kept us up to date in the lead up to our wedding and informed us of next steps. She helped us choose a final look and feel with a few mood board versions. She set everything up and tore down at the end of the reception.
I loved the final result and the venue looked wonderful because of it.

I'm so glad that I could put your worries at ease! Wedding planning can be so stressful and I try to do my best to take stress off of my clients plate. Loved working with you! Such an honor to help make your day special.
Charlotte did a better job than we ever could have imagined with flowers for our wedding. The corsages, boutonnieres, centerpieces, bouquet, and arch were absolutely stunning! The only guidance we gave Charlotte was that we wanted jewel tones, and the flowers were perfect. We received so many compliments from all of our guests and family (and even other vendors). Darling Dahlia made the process so easy and we can't recommend them enough!

It was an absolute pleasure working with you both! So happy to have been able to make your flower dreams come true! :)
Darling Dahlia Floral was amazing to work with. Charlotte made the most beautiful winter inspired bouquets and boutonnières for my wedding. I really appreciate all the effort she put into making sure her floral designs matched my vision. I sent her some inspo pictures and she sent back a mood board with what she could do. She gave me several options based on what I had sent to her and allowed me to choose my preferred design. When my flowers arrived on the day of my wedding, I was so impressed with how everything turned out. Throughout the whole process she had excellent communication, and she even coordinated with my baker for the florals for my cake. I highly recommend Darling Dahlia Floral. Thank you so much for helping make my wedding perfect!

Kristen, thank you so much! It was great working with you and Robbie. I had such a fun time designing in the color palette you chose. I'm so glad you liked everything, I think it turned out perfectly on brand for your theme. :)
Darling Dahlia made my wedding an absolute dream. We got married at a wine bar and Charlotte brought in her expertise and creative eye and created a magical scene to get married in front of and around. She was incredibly easy and professional to communicate with and I would highly recommend her if you're looking for flowers for your wedding.

Lynette! Thank you so much! It was lovely working with you and the crew at Enso Winery. I'm so glad I was able to create something unique and magical to enhance your day!
Charlotte with Darling Dahlia Floral did such an incredible job for our big day. We planned for several months which included a few zoom meetings and several email exchanges to ensure that our vision and budget aligned with our wedding day goals. Needless to say Charlotte knocked the floral design for our wedding out of the park. My wife and I couldn’t be happier with the results and are so incredibly happy with how everything turned out! I would recommend Charlotte to anyone that is looking for great friendly service with well executed beautiful floral designs. She exceeded all of our expectations! 10 out of 10 I’d hire her again tomorrow!

Ryan! Thank you so much for the kind words. It was a pleasure helping bring your vision to life. 10 out of 10 would do it again! Disco forever!
I cannot say enough good things about Charlotte/Darling Dahlia Floral! She took my very loose ideas and details about what I wanted floral wise for our wedding and turned them into something way better than I could have dreamed. Not only were her creations gorgeous day of, but now every time I share photos people comment on the spectacular florals and I get to relive the beauty Charlotte created over and over again. I couldn’t have picked a better florist. If you’re looking for a florist definitely look at Darling Dahlia Floral!

Kelsey! Thank you so much!! It was an absolute pleasure working with you! I’m so glad that I was able to make your floral dreams come true!
My wedding planner suggested Darling Dahlia to us and based on her experiences working with her it was a no brainer! Everything the day of was better than imagined. It fit our vision perfectly. Would highly recommend them to any other couple!

Thanks so much Sara! We’re so happy you loved everything!!
Charlotte did an amazing job with our flowers. We loved them! Thank you for your work. :)
Darling Dahlia was the perfect choice for our backyard wedding! Charlotte was a wonderful communicator from start to finish. My husband and I had to change our wedding plans multiple times due to COVID, and she was able to adjust easily. We finally settled on a backyard wedding at a private residence in Southern California. From the bouquet to the altarpiece, all the florals were perfect, even in the California heat! With Darling Dahlia, you'll be confident that your flowers will be beautiful AND the logistics will run smoothly. Highly recommend!!
