Working with Colie and her team on our wedding was a wonderful experience! She not only utilizes sustainable and locally-focused practices, she also has excellent taste. I felt I c...
ould trust her with many decisions, making preparations for the wedding much simpler. She was communicative, transparent, and very kind. I highly recommend working with her!
Colie and team were fantastic! We provided a little bit of guidance but wanted to be pretty hands off and let Colie do her thing. The end result was better than we could have imagi...
ned! She incorporated the colors we envisioned with the best local and seasonal flowers available. Would highly recommend!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Colie and Flower Scout! From the very first conversation, Colie was warm, thoughtful, and truly passionate about bringing our floral visi...
on to life. She took the time to ask thoughtful questions to help us understand our style, colors, and overall aesthetic, and somehow managed to create arrangements that were even more breathtaking than we had imagined.
Beyond her incredible talent, Colie is such a kind and genuine person. She made the entire process stress-free, offering expert advice while also making sure that every detail reflected us. On our wedding day, when we saw the bouquets, centerpieces, and ceremony florals for the first time, we were absolutely blown away. They were lush, elegant, and felt so perfectly us—as if she had somehow taken the feeling of the day and translated it into flowers.
So many of our guests commented on how stunning the flowers were, and looking back at our photos, they truly brought everything to life in the most magical way. If you’re looking for a florist who not only creates breathtaking arrangements but also brings kindness, heart, and artistry into everything she does, look no further than Flower Scout. She helped make our day even more perfect, and we are forever grateful!
Flower Scout created a breathtaking array of bouquets and boutonnières for our wedding party! The colors were a beautiful complement to everyone’s attire and to the environment of ...
our outdoor garden venue, and the individual blooms were stunning.
Flower Scout is deeply rooted in their community, growing a large portion of their flowers in their own gardens in Troy and treating everyone who walks into their studio like an old friend. I loved that our bouquets contained such a variety of local and native flowers, including delicate blooms (that a larger florist might not be able to work with) that they harvested straight from their garden specifically for our wedding. When I picked up our bouquets the night before our wedding, everything was neatly packaged and they even took the time to tell me about the different varieties of flowers they’d included and to point out the subtle differences between my bridal bouquet and the ones for my bridesmaids.
Simply put, Colie and her team are an absolute pleasure to work with, and their passion for flowers is unmatched!
We loved working with Flower Scout for our wedding! Everything was so natural and flawless and fit perfectly with our woodsy venue. Colie is so lovely and her work is stunning. We ...
would plan our wedding with her all over again!
As someone planning a wedding from out of town AND during Covid, Colie was a dream to work with. After a quick but thorough consultation on the phone, I felt completely relaxed kno...
wing the flowers at our wedding were going to be gorgeous with Flower Scout as our wedding florist. Even when we had to reschedule our wedding, Colie worked with us to make sure she could handle the our new date during peak wedding season and for that we are so grateful. The flowers were all so beautiful and romantic and the perfect compliment to the laid-back vibe we were going for with our wedding.
Colie created the most beautiful florals for our wedding this summer in the Hudson Valley. She was awesome to work with. From the first time we chatted on the phone I could tell sh...
e 100% understood the look I was hoping for—romantic, loose, with a bit of a wildflower feel. We gave a color palette, some inspiration photos, and otherwise trusted her completely. The best part was probably the magical crown she made for me that legit made me feel like a goddess. I would highly recommend Flower Scout for your wedding! Thank you Colie!
Colie was amazing to work with. Communicated via email and over the phone. I had known I wanted to work with her years back as she's known to incorporate beautifully unique, somet...
imes wild flowers in her work. Please check out her instagram - her work speaks for itself. While I didn't know exactly what I wanted, based on the information I gave her, she created beautiful bouquets and centerpieces that matched our looks, the weather, and the ceremony and reception venues perfectly. Would highly recommend anyone looking for a florist in the (greater) capital region!! -Grace R (the bride)
Working with Colie was a highlight of the wedding planning process for me. Not only does she design incredibly gorgeous florals, but she's a pure delight to work with and handled e...
very one of my questions with professionalism, patience, and kindness. I'm not especially well-versed in the world of plants and flowers, but I was able to give Colie a very vague description of a feeling I was going for and she delivered the exact vision that was inside my head. From my wild and dangly bouquet, to our massive ceremonial plinths, to the assorted living plants we used as centerpieces, every detail was exquisitely executed. But hands down, my absolute favorite decorative element of the entire wedding was the enormous hanging cloud of florals that Colie masterfully installed above our tent dance floor. Dancing beneath it was such a dream! I'm so grateful that Colie was so wonderful in helping me understand the options, logistics, and costs so that we could make that installation a reality.
Colie is undoubtedly a tremendously talented florist, but she's also thoughtful and kind human. I could not recommend her and her business more enthusiastically.
Colie is a gem of a human and a true artist. Working with her on our wedding flowers was a joy. She took on the task of creating florals for our 200 person wedding which included b...
ouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, flower girl crowns, large arrangements for the ceremony, and decorating 12 long reception tables, as well as several other extraneous arrangements. It was a BIG job, and she executed it flawlessly.
Colie was straightforward and transparent about pricing. I never felt pressured, but rather felt that she really cared about helping us to create visual impact for our large, outdoor wedding in a cost-effective manner.
In our phone conversations Colie took the time to really understand, not only what we were looking for in flowers, but also who we are as people. It was apparent that it’s meaningful to her to have her creations be a part of such a significant moment in her clients’ lives, and I think that spirit comes through in her gorgeous work.
I wholeheartedly recommend Flower Scout, especially if you are looking for a more wild and romantic look for your wedding flowers that draws from local and seasonal abundance.
There aren't enough words to describe how amazing my experience was with Flower Scout. First off, Colie is simply the best and I am so glad that we had the opportunity to work with...
her. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous and the experience was so easy- I didn't have to worry about a single thing.
Very late in the wedding process I realized that I was not a DIY queen. About a month before the wedding I called Colie to see if she had any availability to work with me. At this point I was willing even to go above my budget because I felt like I had messed up by trying not to have flowers int he first place. Calling Colie was one of the best decisions I made in the wedding process. Colie was SO easy to work with and so flexible especially taking into consideration that she had less than a month to prepare and the fact that she also had a huge wedding the same weekend as mine. I found her prices to be very fair and she worked with me and my budget- she didn't try to oversell me on anything and instead really took into consideration what I wanted to spend (which in the wedding industry is super rare).
Colie also went above and beyond. On the day of the wedding, about 45 min before the ceremony, I realized that I had somehow forgotten to include boutonnieres in our contract- which was something that I really wanted. We called Colie and she made all of the boutonnieres and had them to us before the ceremony. I was so incredibly grateful and touched that she would do this for us, it meant a lot.
Lastly, the work she did was beautiful. The centerpieces matched the venue so well and were a really important component of bringing all the visual elements of the wedding together. I LOVED the boutonnieres and the bouquets, everything was gorgeous!
I LOVED working with Colie! Because we had a smaller budget for our wedding, Colie offers couples like us the option to order a la carte, so just the few pieces we need that work s...
o cohesively together. We only communicated via email, but that felt sufficient to me as we exchanged photos, style ideas, event locations, and my vision for the day. All of our pieces held up well throughout the day, and fit the feel of our wedding perfectly. We even used the bouquets as centrepieces during the reception, and everyone was asking where we had them made!
I highly recommend reaching out to Colie for your special day, she has an incredible talent and a very unique flair that will make your wedding stand out from the rest.
We thoroughly enjoyed working with Colie for our wedding. In talking with her, it was clear that she understood the look we were going for. Without me specifying many exact types o...
f flowers, Colie still put together the most beautiful bouquets, boutonnieres, and centerpieces. I was so incredibly thrilled when I saw them all!
Colie's also a calming force. It's easy to get stressed about the details when planning a wedding, hoping that all your visions come through in the end. When planning with Colie, though, I just knew that I didn't need to worry, and that she'd make everything just right. I'm so happy we left the details of the flowers in her extraordinarily capable hands.
Colie is absolutely amazing! I didn't leave a lot of room in my budget for flowers because I was expecting to do something else for centerpieces and bouquets. She was willing to wo...
rk with me to keep me within, and we still came out with amazing pieces that we fell so in love with. The bouquets were nothing short of perfect and created with so much care, I handled them like glass when I picked them up (not that they needed to be, they held up through strong breezes and warm sunshine). My bouquet lasted at least the 5 days before we left for our honeymoon, and was exactly what I pictured when she and I had discussed my vision so many months ago. The flowers that she chose for my centerpieces were eclectic, but they meshed in an incredible organic way with beautiful pops of color among the greenery. Such an easy and painless experience with amazing results. I'd recommend her to anyone and look forward to seeing what the future has in store. Thank you for everything!
Working with Colie for our September wedding was so amazing! We met with one florist first who asked me so many questions that I didn't have answers for, I felt so unprepared. Wh...
en we met with Colie, her questions were more about us as a couple and what we wanted the overall look to be like. After looking at so much of her work I was pretty confident that I would love anything that she did for us, but it really went beyond what we even imagined. As another reviewer said, she suggested bud vases and candles for the long tables, and they were so perfect! Just pretty and whimsical and made the natural beauty of the outdoor venue stand out. The next day at our brunch, after collecting the vases to return to Colie, we put out the cut flowers with little clear vases and had a flower bar - everyone had so much fun creating their own bouquets to bring home and the flowers lasted forever! She created this really cool floral thing for the arbor we got married under to soften its geometric lines, and it looked awesome! The next day it was super windy and poured all day and it was still perfectly intact. The bouquets were beautiful. A bit late in the game I decided I wanted a colorful flower crown, and I wanted all of my closest girlfriends (whether in the wedding party or not) to wear greenery crowns. I am SO happy I made that choice! I'm very picky about flower crowns and often think they look a little silly, but Colie's were absolutely perfect. My friends all looked gorgeous and festive, and mine was almost unbelievable - honestly the best flower crown I've ever seen. We didn't even need to pin them or anything, even through dancing and everything they stayed perfectly on! I've never heard so many compliments on the flowers at a wedding. The pricing is incredibly reasonable for the quality and care that Colie puts into what she does!
I worked with Colie for my South-Asian/Western hybrid wedding in July. She went above and beyond through research and creativity, from the flower garlands we wore on our necks, the...
hanging garlands in the entry, the flower hairpieces ,and table arrangements. Every piece was a unique work of art and designed with great care. My wedding photos are breathing with life and beatury thanks much in part to the exquisite floral design. The color combinations and textures were like nothing I have ever seen. Colie has my highest recommendation for the quality of her work, and she was an absolute pleasure to work with.
I loved worked with Colie at Flower Scout! Flowers were the one part of my wedding where I really had no idea what I wanted: I don’t know the name of specific flowers, and even whe...
n pinning examples, I felt like I was all over the map in what I wanted. But in my first call with Colie, she was really good at drawing out how I wanted my wedding to feel, and then making suggestions that would match that. I also appreciated how willing she was to work with my budget. We had a large-ish wedding (145 people), so I was really struggling with how to make the tables feel decorated and festive without totally blowing my budget. We were doing super long tables, and Colie suggested a mix of bud vases and candles as a good way to make the tables feel full and festive. It turned out AMAZING. Literally the tables were exactly what I wanted when I didn’t even know how to describe what I wanted. Our bouquets were lovely as well - they felt perfectly unstructured in an elegant, lovely way (which is what I requested). Finally, I really liked the men’s boutonnieres - they added a lovely accent without being overly large or overly floral. Ooh, and finally: Colie created these wrist corsages for my mom and mother-in-law that were stunning; the moms wore them all night. I would hire Colie again in a heartbeat for any occasion - I only wish I lived closer so that I could join her Flower Scout CSA!
