Florals & Events by Design

ia

y). I was planning a Los Angeles wedding from Hawaii so I was never able to actually look at any arrangement examples before the wedding. I just trusted my wedding planner. I described to her exactly what I wanted and it was as if Lorelei read my mind. The decor was even more beautiful than I expected! Lorelei was so sweet and helpful! She was even able to add in my last minute requests. I received so many compliments on the decor. The centerpiece were just fabulous! My sweetheart table amazing! I just cannot express my gratitude enough for the amazing job Lorelei and her staff did. I would highly recommend them for your next wedding or event. Thank you so much Lorelei for all your hard work!

ut flowers but I am pretty picky about aesthetics. Despite what was probably pretty inarticulate direction on my part, Lorelei somehow knew exactly what I wanted!! She was on top of everything the day of the wedding. She is a perfectionist and really takes a lot of pride in her work and it definitely shows!!

even imagined. People are still raving about the flowers at the wedding! The centerpieces were full and on beautiful gold candelabras. They were surrounded by 5 small gold votive cups filled with flowers for people to take home! It was such a gorgeous touch and the guests loved them. I showed her a picture of clear cylindrical clear vases wrapped in a gold lace - and she managed to find the exact material and made them look amazing!!!! Besides her impeccable taste in design and in picking the right flowers/colors, Lorelei was so professional and ALWAYS available. I kept changing my budget and she met with me more than once to cater to my style and price point. I cannot recommend her enough! She was the first florist I met with, and I knew I right away that I would go with her. I tried meeting with one other florist after Lorelei, and I did not get the dedication and excitement about flowers as I did with Lorelei. She dedicates her time to the wedding for that weekend, and makes sure everything goes seamlessly perfect. I did not get this feeling from the other florist I met with, who I felt was more distracted and trying to juggle too many clients at once. Lorelei was so genuine and has a true love and dedication to flowers and her clients. Her work is pure perfection! I would consider myself type A and slightly picky when it came to my wedding design, but Lorelei fulfilled all of my hopes for that day. She deserves the highest recommendation!!

th deciding the best options for not only our budget, but the desired look and feel we wanted. (We are not the experts in flowers and she guided us through the various options.) It was a pleasure working with her, the flowers are what truly complimented the venue. Our guests were not shy to ask if they could take home the arrangements from the reception. We had so many compliments! She is truly an artist, as well as a pleasure to work with.

owers and helped me in selecting flowers that went best with my color scheme and venue. She was very caring and was the most dedicated in making my day perfect of all my vendors. She was in constant communication with me and quickly answered any questions that I had. I highly recommend Lorelei for any special occasion. She is a vendor that you will not have to stress about!! Thank you Lorelei for making our wedding absolutely beautiful!

g us that when she got back from her trip she will talk with us, she told us she got booked already. We wasted our time waiting for her to get back to us and making us fake promises. Really upsetting.

from the very beginning. I am not ashamed to say that I knew nothing about flowers when I met her (all I knew were roses). She very patiently, throughout my wedding journey, helped me and went out of her way for me. She helped us stick to our budget and never tried to push us to get anything more or less than we could. As we had two different days of floral arrangements to think about, she really helped us figure out what would look best and be most feasible in our budget. Since I knew nothing about flowers and she had made me feel so confident in her abilities, I pretty much left everything up to her. I trusted her judgement whenever something was to be decided upon. And boy, am i glad I did that!! On both the days of, she was all over the place helping around and making sure everything was set up perfectly. She was a reassuring and very comforting face on those hectic days. I didn't have to worry even once about the florals; everything was so organised and set up so wonderfully. Both my bouquets were gorgeous! She really made my visions come to life (I was very vocal about how beautiful they had to be!). The ceremony areas looked stunning, even more than I had expected them to. The reception floral arrangements were also beautiful! She had really captured the looks of both the weddings perfectly. The first wedding was all whites, creams and ivory. The second one was unabashedly colourful as most Indian weddings usually are. There were multiple shades of peach, oranges and reds. While the first one was classic and elegant, the second one was vibrant and glamorous; both weddings equally as stunning. Lorelei blew me away at every stage of the planning to the execution. She was an absolute delight and amazing to work with. I cannot recommend her enough! I promise all you brides out there that you will not be disappointed! - Sheena Murray xx

res, the wedding arch, sweet heart table were all exquisite. We could not have wish for anything more. Our wedding was a dream come true and you played a huge part in making it so special. God bless you for helping make our dream a reality. We wish you the very best in life.

pricing and I highly recommend her for any special event. She was amazing at providing the right guidance and executing our vision with the florals. It was spectacular to see the florals on the day of, and see that vision realized. It was truly the most wonderful day of our lives and I wanted to take the time to thank Lorelei and her team for being such a special part of that journey! We got endless complements on the florals!

kind person who truly cares about her clients. I met with her and communicated over phone and email with her on numerous occasions to adjust the floral proposal until it was perfect. She was always willing to offer suggestions and alternatives that she knew would look beautiful with our theme and that would also be more cost-effective for our overall budget. Additionally, Lorelei is very organized, and she communicated with our venues to ensure that set-up and transfer would go smoothly. All of the flowers were exactly as I had imagined, and she really brought my vision to life. We received so many compliments on the centerpieces, and we couldn't be happier with how stunning the flowers looked. Lorelei is a true artist and such a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend her to design the florals at any wedding or other important event!

were breathtaking. We couldn't be more proud. Thank you so much. I would definitely use her again for another big event. See you in ten years for our next event.

I was uneducated about the flowers in season at the time of my wedding, and Lorelei insured that the look I was going for would be achieved with what was available. She was constantly full of ideas, inspiration, and advice. We had an unconventional palette of peach, plum and gold and Lorelei created the most magical centerpieces of hydrangeas, peach carnations, peach juliet roses (my all-time favorite), purple succulents and purple cala lilies. They were modern, elegant and whimsical! I can't stop staring at my ranuculus and juliet rose bouquet! After meeting at our venue, I knew when I was indecisive I could tell Lorelei to go with her artistic vision. On the wedding day in the pouring rain, she hand-delivered and set-up every item, including tying the very last peach carnation pomander to the ceremony chair. My photographer commented that she has never seen a florist give so much on the wedding day, including pinning boutonnières on all the guys. Seeing Lorelei on my wedding day and looking around the room at her florals made me tear up with joy. I will recommend Lorelei to anyone looking to do something different and depend on a florist who will you her all!

I had a friend who was shipping flowers in from Hawaii but I was going for a more Hollywood modern look and she did a wonderful job tying the two themes together. She was very responsive and easy to get in contact with. On the day of the centerpieces looked exactly like what I had envisioned! They were beautiful and Lorelei really went above and beyond to make sure everything looked wonderful! She was also very good about working within my budget and being honest about what would work and what wouldn't. Thank you!

you to plan your big day. She even sat in traffic for over 3 hours to come see me when the freeway was at a standstill. The flowers came out beautifully and I received a lot of compliments. On the day of, she was also very helpful and is such a sweet person. My friend had recommended her to me and Lorelei certainly did not disappoint. I have referred her to several friends and will continue doing so as her prices also are very affordable. Thank you Lorelei!

bsessed, micro managed myself, and all in all drove myself absolutely insane with the whole wedding thing. The Only thing that was enjoyable and a total breeze.... Was the flowers. When I walked into the venue for the first time I was moved to tears. Lorelei did such an Amazing job on my flowers I would recommend her to anybody. She worked with my budget was personable and professional and I couldn't have been happier. She even stayed at the wedding proper and helped with my dress during photos. If that's not above and beyond, I don't know what is. She is a true savant with her arrangements and art. She will meticulously ask you many questions until she is satisfied that she understands your vision. And then she will Nail it Perfectly! I will say that I am a bit... detail oriented, meticulous or even over the top and she pleased me more than any of my other vendors. Thank you Lorelei. You are a true Artist.

flowers beautiful and as I had visioned, Lorelei herself stayed for hours setting them up and moving things to ensure they were at here quality too. Thank you so much Lorelei!

wanted and delivered beyond our expectations. The day of the wedding everything was perfect, meticulously set up to a tee. The service her and the staff provided was exceptional. We highly recommend Florals and Events by Design and we will be sure to refer all of our friends!

rally showed her one picture and she made everything exactly as we were hoping. Lorelei was very flexible, easy to work with, and responded quickly to all of our emails. She was definitely a pleasure to work with and I would recommend her to anyone needing flowers.

k we wanted. She kept in touch with us throughout our wedding planning and even did a walk through at our event site to make sure everything was perfect & exactly what we wanted. She was on time the day of the wedding (already setting up when I arrived to get ready) and her flowers were beautiful! They were beyond my expectations, my husband and I were so pleased. All the guests were very impressed with our beautiful arrangements. My bouquet was incredible! And Lorelei brought a little water holder for my bouquet and bridesmaids bouquets so they would stay fresh until the ceremony. All the flowers we had definitely looked twice or three times as much what we actually paid for it. I would recommend Lorelei for a wedding or any special event. We plan to use her again in the future for any events we have. She does really great work!!!

e in the field, and offered truly valuable advice for our event design. Even though she had to drive far to get to our venue, she was punctual and set up the location beautifully. We love her work!

ant centerpieces, they were just gorgeous. She has the most high quaility flowers and everything from the corsages to my bouquet were just put together absolutely beautifully. She made everything look even nicer than we could have imagined. She is also extremely professional and easy to work with, she went out of her way to help us plan all the details of our flowers. We will certainly use her again if the occaision arrises, and would recommend her to anyone looking for a spectacular florist!

ral services receive: 7 bridesmaid bouquets, 7 groomsmen boutonnieres, bridal bouquet, 20 family boutonnieres and corsages, pew decorations (re-used later at head table), rose petals on side of aisle, two ceremony altar centerpieces (glass vase, willow branches, and flowers), cascading orchids for ceremony gazebo. I cannot rave enough about Floral & Events by Design and their team, especially Lorelei. I was referred to her by a friend of mine who got married last year, and she could not say enough praises about Lorelei and her team. So I scheduled an appointment with Lorelei, and I was surprised that she was willing to meet me at the venue! I was put at ease immediately knowing that she was willing to go out her way to check out the venue herself, and was confident that she would be able to capture my vision, knowing she'd be familiar with the place. Lorelei is extremely knowledgeable and so passionate about what she does. She doesn't treat you like another customer, you can tell that she sincerely wants to give you everything you want and she does her best to give it! She was always prompt to respond to my emails and calls, and showed up many hours in advance to set up the ceremony flowers. The flowers were all extremely fresh, and my bridesmaid told me she was able to keep hers in a vase for almost a week after the wedding! It was absolutely breathtaking to see my vision come alive, and I am so grateful to Florals & Events by design.

uld afford. She made sure the arrangements for my wedding were beautiful. She is amazing! Thank you for all your help. I have over the years and will continue to recommend you to anyone who needs a great florist!

could imagine. I am so thankfull to her for making our wedding day even more memorable!

She did an amazing job decorating our atrium at the park and then transferring that gorgeous display to our reception location on the table. I have recommended them to all my friends who have gotten married.

reating a beautiful event within your budget and gave suggestions on alternatives when my vision exceeded my pocketbook. Plus, Lorelei really came through with me when my wedding plans completely changed within two weeks of the day. I highly, highly recommend Florals and Events by Design. Great job.

ly, answering all my questions over the phone, which is exactly what I needed as I was preparing a Los Angeles wedding while living in Chicago! She worked closely with us all the way. Improved our vision, and creatively worked within our budget! Perfect florist! My bouquet was beautiful, the centerpieces were elegant, among others. One should look to further. Thanks Lorelei for making our special day simply elegant and perfect! =)

n and provides excellent suggestions in terms of design and flower options. My bouquet was flawless! The table centerpieces looked like something you'd find in the White House--her work is just outstanding! Her work received so many complements at my wedding and I will always be grateful to her for the care and attention she put in making my day extra special. THANK YOU LORELEI! -AO

event!!!

nient) on our first meeting. From before we first met until our wedding day she was always prompt with replies and professional. We left a lot of our flower choices up to her because she's so experienced, and I'm so glad I did. One of my favorite and most memorable parts of my wedding were the gorgeous flowers. My mom was also ranting about the flowers and she is a flower lover. Dont miss out on lorelei and her team. You will NOT be disappointed.

I gave her ideas of what I liked and from there she came up with amazing suggestions. The day of the wedding everything was amazing! The service her and the staff provided was exceptional. We will be sure to refer all of our friends to Florals & Events by Design!

our concept to include our ideal flowers and absolute dislikes and she did not try to talk us into modifying our vision into anything else- a few vendors told us our colors were too dark. She was also extremely competitive on pricing as there were others asking 3-4 times the amount for the same arrangements. The flowers we used were orchids, lisianthus, lilac, callas, fern shoots, and these amazing Manzanita trees- small ones for our sign in and buffet tables, and tall ones decorated with candles and floating orchids for the ceremony landing which were later moved behind the sweetheart table. (Pictures on her website.) She used high quality blooms, was responsive to all our inquiries, and was punctual and professional the day of. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I should note I’m known by family and friends to be…umm… “particular” (smile), and by profession I’m a client care director, so I am happy to recognize and praise good service when I receive it. You’d do well to have Lorelei help create a beautiful wedding day for you.
