Floriography

o many compliments and we are grateful to the Floriography team for going above and beyond for our wedding! *Photos by Anthony Ziccardi Studios*

de the entire booking process seamless and brought our vision to life with such care and creativity — all while staying within our budget. Every floral detail on the big day was stunning — from the centerpieces to the bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful the flowers were! If you’re looking for a florist who is not only incredibly talented but also a joy to work with, run — don’t walk — to book Angela and her team. They truly went above and beyond!

the first vendor I reached out to, I knew I had to have her create the most perfect wedding day and only she could bring my vision to life. Angela truly listens to everything you say, she is so understanding, patient, and kind. You can tell she has a true passion for what she does, every day at her work she is so happy to be there and be able to create. You have an initial consultation meeting together in her breathtaking barn where you go over your vision then you have another meeting about a month before your wedding. In this second meeting Angela will set a whole table with the centerpieces you discussed and you will go over any adjustments to floral colors and arrangements. She also provides so many rentals so it takes away the need to have to book a separate vendor for any special linens, glassware, chargers, etc. Angela is an all in one package! She's your personal stylist who comes the day of the wedding and sets everything up exactly as discussed. She's a real life fairy godmother. When you walk into your reception room you see this transformed space that is exactly how you envisioned and more and it takes your breath away. She not only made the room beautiful but also brought me the most beautiful bouquet and nailed the groomsmen pocket boutineers that stayed all night long. Angela also created pre made petal cones with whatever you want written on them, brought them to the church and displayed in an adorable basket for your guests to do a petal toss at the end of the ceremony. I have to say the best part of my entire wedding day was seeing the room come together exactly how I wanted it to. I couldn't stop staring at all the centerpieces and all the additional details she added throughout. Angela, her husband, and her whole amazing team flawlessly executed the set up and came later at the end of the night to break down and clean up. Angela is worth every cent and is very reasonably priced for the absolute high quality work she does. If you want a florist who listens to you and understands exactly what you want while having a genuine smile on her face, this is your girl. I told Angela I now understand why her parents named her that because she really is an angel. I will be using Angela for every special event I have - I may even make up a special event just so I can have her come make it magical. I am so so so happy with her work it really was the best part of my day I really can't thank Angela and her whole team enough. Love you so much! Alexis xoxo

arches! Angela, Chris and their staff was a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend them !!

loriography’s barn/meeting space was a wonderful place to meet to discuss our wedding vision and Angela was able to provide real-time examples of what her vision was for our table arrangements. Angela was extremely communicative and her day-of team impeccably delivered on all things floral! Thank you, Angela and Chris, for a truly awesome experience and for making our wedding day so special!

ed to the sweetheart table, was not what we ordered. They sent a square arch instead of a broken arch that was supposed to be two tall curved arches. When I confronted her of their error, she said she could fix it, even though the ceremony was starting in 30 minutes. She literally gave us a broken arch! She removed the top of the arch and left us with 2 straight towers that looked ridiculous. Literally had two poles that were scarcely decorated! She Never asked us if what she “fixed”was ok. We didn’t get to see the disaster until we entered in for the ceremony. I will gladly post pictures. Then the centerpieces were not what was on our order. We ordered high and low centerpieces and they were all high! Lastly, we went to the venue the next day to pick up the centerpieces and the florist took the flowers back with them when they picked up their candelabras. No one gave them permission to take the flowers that we paid a lot of money for! We called today, Presidents Day, since she did not respond to our emails over the weekend and her reply was that this is her holy day and we can’t pick up the flowers and yesterday was her family day. Poor customer service!!! I am adding a picture of what the broken arch should have looked like and was similar to one that she had made in her shop when we placed our order.

ela works magic she took my idea and made it elegant and eye catching but not overdone even though I love over done! I’m sure the first day I showed her my vision she thought I was maybe a little gaudy but she made everything drip in class and elegance. My guests are still talking about the centerpieces and how they wanted to take them home but thought they were too perfect to move! Customer service is impeccable I miscounted a whole bridesmaid and groomsman the ENTIRE time I was planning. I literally called her the night before the wedding in a panic and she simply said don’t worry I have enough it’s fine. I was shocked I thought for sure she would be frantic nope, pulled it off and it was amazing. I am so in love every time I see a picture of those flowers! I wish I was a better writer because what I feel about those flowers cannot be put into words! I literally have to take a deep breath and smile every time I think of them! Thank you for making them perfect!

ng was fair and delivery was prompt. I would definitely recommend to any bride in the area!

gnage at the glowing recommendation of our venue. Sadly, this is the ONLY wedding vendor we used that we would hesitate to recommend. I will say that Angela's work is beautiful, HOWEVER, that doesn't make up for the following issues we experienced: 1. LACK OF COMMUNICATION- We didn't realize that Angela prefers texts over emails, and had to get our venue involved when our multiple emails went unanswered for WEEKS (emails as simple as asking if our deposit was received and if our booking was confirmed). They should hire an assistant if they aren't able to answer client emails; a business which supports email as a form of communication should be comfortable and competent communicating via that channel. Texts are not really appropriate when you are attempting to ask multiple questions/seek clarification on multiple details. When you are wedding planning, you do NOT need the added stress that lack of communication brings. 2. MULTIPLE DETAILS COMPLETELY WRONG ON WEDDING DAY: We were supposed to get our seating chart printed on a large 10-foot gold mirror, however it was done on an acrylic see-through sign. We were supposed to get lilies (my favorite flower) in our table centerpieces per our contract (which I'm sure was built into our pricing and we paid for), but they were not included. When setting up our tables at the venue, they placed the wrong table #s on 2 tables, which wasn't caught until guests had already been seated and there was nothing we could do to rectify the situation. When speaking with Angela about these issues after our wedding, she was apologetic (of note, however, no refund amount was offered), although she basically blamed me that the example seating chart I sent her wouldn't work in the mirror design we had chosen (but she never reached out to discuss this with me), she told me the lilies weren't included because she didn't put them in the centerpiece mock-up which I had approved prior to the wedding (I had forgotten to check for the lilies when we were at our final appointment [hello, wedding stress!], but inquired about them TWICE afterwards once I realized I didn't see them and those inquiries were clearly never read), and blamed our venue for giving them the wrong seating chart for the table # mishap (which wasn't the case, as the venue caught the mistake, albeit too late). In summary, I would think twice before paying Floriography for their services (which were not inexpensive, by the way) when what they delivered was NOT 100% what was agreed upon in our written contract/invoice. You will go through enough stress with the wedding planning process itself, and do NOT need further frustration from a vendor who lacks communication skills and attention to detail!

mth and grandeur to the setting and the day. She picked the perfect linens to compliment the flowers and tie it all together- it was magical.

showroom to talk vision, then about a month before the wedding we went out to her farm to see a mock up of one of our centerpieces. The flowers on our wedding day were simply stunning. The centerpieces brought our ballroom to life! Our wedding wouldn't have been what it was without Floriography. THANK YOU!

r bringing my vision to life. I wanted fall colors with a bit of boho. They really came out to perfection. I also rented a hexagon alter, lanterns, centerpiece candles and it all came out fantastic! It was the easiest part of planning a wedding. Be sure to book Floriography for your big day, you will be so happy you did.

e loved my flowers I even sent them to be preserved! She did exactly what I wanted and every detail was so perfectly executed. She did my center pieces, my bouquet, my girls boquetes, and decorated my venue! Thank you Angela for making my day so beautiful! I can not wait to use you again in the future!!!

was going to be just as beautiful. We were in contact with Angela from day one through the wedding week. Communication was always very difficult. We had a very hard time getting in touch with Angela weather it was through email, text or phone calls. Angela droped the ball on my daughter's bouquet. It was a totally different bouquet that we received the day of the wedding. We did get reimbursed for the bouquet. But the flowers were a complete failure. All Angela said to us was look at the contract. And she asked the day of the wedding how everything was. And I said fine. But even if I told her wheat was wrong there was nothing she could of done at that point. The rose petals were brown, flowers on the corsages browned on everyone. Bridemaid bouquet turned brown also. When my daughter called Angela a couple of days after the wedding to let her know how unhappy she was. Angela said I knew you were going to be one of those brides. Really... I would not recommend this florist.....

. there is no words to describe the talent for this company. they will be part of us in every event in our life.

ve, and will bring any of your ideas to life. The flowers at our ceremony and reception were absolutely beautiful and exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much for creating such a beautiful day for us!

ecreation of my moms bouquet from when she got married and Angela pulled through despite the not great quality pictures I shared with her. The sweet heart table was also overflowing with flowers.

they do. It was an easy transaction and we changed delivery to pick up. Even though pickup at store didn’t start until 10am, they told us to meet them at 8am at their farm for easy pickup. I appreciate all their help and communication.

lt confident that she was the right florist for my wedding. Angela is a true artist and really takes the time to understand what you're looking for (even if you can't fully verbalize it) and transforms your vision beyond expectation. We were blown away by how beautiful the bouquets, boutonnières, sweetheart table, mantle and pedestals were with the vibrant array of flowers she used, and my husband and I cannot count how many positive comments we received from guests who were in love with the arrangements. A great experience from start to finish!

and was sat down instantly for my first consultation. Without hesitation, I was booked that evening and could not feel more relieved than I did walking out of the showroom knowing my flowers were going to be amazing! When I returned for my mock up, I was blown away. It wasn't a "half you know what" mock up. It was full size, correct flowers, and absolutely stunning. They took all of my table decor to allow a seamless set up and me no worries. The day of came and when I saw the room for the first time - my vision was EXACTLY portrayed. They went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I wanted, plus some! We received so many compliments! The winter romance vibe was on point. Having been married since Saturday, my centerpieces are still perfect and have fresh flowers as if it was the day of. I cannot recommend Floriography any more - they are amazing!

or our final appointment and we were asked to come back later. My bouquet did not have the flowers that were requested and agreed to. Additionally, it was the same size as my bridesmaid bouquets yet it was 3x the price. Every one of my bridesmaids even said the same thing, that my bouquet was the same as theirs. We could only tell them apart because mine had charms on them. Several of the boutonnieres were wilted by the time the reception began. We were also not provided with several items that we paid for. I reached out to the vendor before writing this review to see if she'd rectify anything but she was dismissive. I would be careful when booking this vendor especially if you have specific items that you need or really care about your flowers. I paid a lot of money for the things that I thought I was getting and I couldn't be any more disappointed or upset.

ell so you know how personalized her service will be. Each and every flower was stunning and smelled incredible. I have guests that are still in awe with how she transformed the space to fit my magical, fall forest vision! Also she was able to help with the table settings which was such a beautiful gesture and bonus. Angela is one of the most incredible florists I have ever met, any bride would be lucky to have her. I highly recommend floriography for any wedding or future event!

ng look AMAZING. There isn’t one thing I would change. From our first meeting with them- they knew exactly the style we wanted and made the day perfect and more beautiful than I could imagine!

professionalism and consideration. Having to reschedule our wedding 3 times due to the pandemic came with many challenges. Angela was so accommodating and thoughtful throughout our (3 year!) planning and re-planning process. We were never met with any hesitation with changes to color schemes, design, amount of flowers, etc. Since our date changed so many times, we had plans for different seasons with slight variations. With each change we threw her way, Angela maintained focus on my request for seasonally available flowers. Each time she was willing and able to support this and made recommendations accordingly. It was easy to get discouraged having to edit our plans each time, but with Angela's support she made this process as enjoyable as possible. Having regular correspondence with her kept my mind at ease that no matter how many challenges came our way, Angela would handle it! Angela took creative liberties that made our wedding more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. She stuck with our overall plan, but took extra thoughtful steps that blew us all away on the day of the event. I could not have been happier! It was a relief to have a team like Floriography as a vendor. I was so thankful to be able to put my complete trust in them and know everything was being handled with such a level of care. I highly, highly recommend Angela and her team and look forward to using them for other events in the future.

asterpiece on the arbor. I could not recommend her enough! Thank you for everything, Angela!

one day! Our beautiful color combinations were blues, purples, soft ivories which includes poppies, antique roses, and hydrangeas! I was stunned when I peaked in the ceremony room and her incredible team was decorating our beautiful arch with all the magic and beauty my husband and I planned for! She exceeded my expectations all around! Angela is a gorgeous person inside and out that makes the day feel so beautiful! Wait until you see your sweetheart table! Flowing beauties all around ... call her and make the magic come alive!

ouquet and my girls bouquets were exquisite. I still can't stop thinking about my bouquet, the gorgeous flowers she used. I had peonies and hot chocolate calla lilies (a flower I never even heard of until we started designing for our wedding) and I can't even explain the joy when I walked into the ballroom. Her love for what she does was in every floral element of that room! We were in love with our sweetheart table and got so many compliments on the flowers and all the candles. She is highly recommended by us and we hope we can work with her for something in the future!!

sit with us for almost two hours educating us on all the flowers and options we had to bring our vision to life! Angela took a sketch and ran with it! I not once had any reservations or worries about a single thing!! She listened to our budget needs and not once pushed us to go with something that was out of our reach. She listened to my many questions and not once looked annoyed or in a rush to leave. Once my husband and I decided to postpone our wedding and then revert to our original date, Angela worked with our planner with no questions asked. Once I arrived at our ceremony location, I was astonished by the beauty! I could not believe this came from a sketch! The flowers and details were absolutely breathtaking! Angela and her team made us feel so special! Would highly recommend working with Angela!!

hin our budget. They designed our tables, the reception centerpieces were great, and made all the bouquets, corsages, and everything was stunning, elegant, and exactly what we wanted. Thank you!

ferent options, talked about what would be complimentary to my colors, and knocked it out of the park on the execution. She was by far the easiest vendor I worked with and made the entire process (which felt daunting for me) so seamless. Thank you Angela! Everything was beyond beautiful and we had so many compliments on the flower arrangements.

f an arrangement from Angela and her team on facebook and inquired about a quote. I had a very productive meeting with Angela where we discussed my vision, what colors, what flowers were in my budget etc. She made the whole process very very EASY. The day of the wedding, she worked with my chaotic schedule to drop things off etc. The flowers (centerpieces, corsages, boutonnieres, bouquets) all were perfection! I received so many compliments! HIGHLY recommend!

olors and a few specifics flowers and she did the rest. She was extremely flexible with any changes that were needed and we got so many compliments on our centerpieces. I would recommend Floriography Designs in Rockaway/Denville to anyone!

centerpieces, bouquets, ceremony decorations... everything was exactly how I wanted it & more!

n every detail of the day, but she went above and beyond to make suggestions and add special touches on to EVERY piece she created to make it extra special. My table centerpieces were better than I could have ever imagined and I love mine and my bridesmaids bouquets so much that I am having them preserved to display in our home. Our wedding venue even asked to keep one of our centerpieces because they were "absolutely amazing." On top of her exceptional talents and artistic ability, Angela remembers your name every time you call or contact her which is so comforting and reassuring when you are working with someone to help plan your wedding day. Floriography is unparalleled and I could not have imagined our day without them.

ut into it.

ngela but she was extremely pleased! They were patient, professional, understanding, sweet and accommodating. Angela customized my bridal bouquet beyond my wildest dreams. We would use them again and again. Thank you for making our winter wonderland come to life!!

just say that Angela and her team are very, very busy people - all because of their commitment to delivering the best in their business. Angela was committed right from the start. Even during more hectic days, she made a point of getting on the phone with me within a few hours of receiving my emails and arranging multiple consultations due to my long distance situation. When I needed to change course and realized the flower plan was not completing my vision, she gave her extra time and creative energy into helping me form something from scratch based only on what I personally loved. She was also more than happy to help me cut a bit of cost without sacrificing my vision. And the results were PHENOMENAL! While we did craft our own centerpieces, I had the bouquets and archway done by Angela and her team. We even still hear from many of our guests about how "uniquely beautiful" all the floral work was (often one of the least memorable parts of a wedding!). Her enthusiasm for her job comes across as warm and encouraging to an overwhelmed bride-to-be. Worth every penny!!!

and she was able to point me in the right direction with various arrangements while still maintaining affordability. Angela made beautiful arrangements for the bridal party, down the aisle, and pieces for the alter and welcome signs, as well as table center pieces, garland for a staircase, and filling bird cages. From planning to the day of, Angela was a pleasure to work with and we are so happy with how everything turned out!

uppah were beyond what we expected. You can tell she truly loves what she does! She had creative suggestions, but also respected what we wanted. So happy we found her!

our centerpieces, wildflower bunches on the windows and decor tables, and a huge wood display in front of the head table which was covered with flowers, candles, moss, lanterns. All the bouquets and boutonnieres were followed the wildflower theme. All of the flowers were fresh, beautiful, and absolutely everywhere. I shed a few tears walking into the ballroom the first time. It was the wedding I dreamt of and I really cant thank Angela and her team enough for turning my dream into a reality. She really went above and beyond and did an amazing job. I would HIGHLY recommend her and her team.

everything was delivered on time and done exactly how we talked about. The flowers were amazing. The colors were so vibrate and everything looked so fresh. I would recommend Angela's work!

was so easy to work with, flexible, she understood my vision, and took it beyond anything I could dream of. The florals were exquisite, fresh, and beautifully designed. Angela isn’t just a florist, she’s a designer. I received so many compliments. I met numerous florists during my wedding planning - most of which wouldn’t work with my decor or budget. Floriography made everything so easy. Highly recommend

er your initial meeting, she'll come back next time with a presentation complete with hand-painted watercolor pictures of her vision for your bouquets and table arrangements. Not only did she arrange the flowers, but we also bought books to incorporate into our table arrangements and she took care of all of that. She also made our table numbers displays with painted silhouettes. I loved everything and got a lot of compliments on how beautiful everything was. I would highly recommend Angela and her team.
