Connie was absolutely out of this world. She knocked it out of the park. Our centerpieces were more than we could ask for. My bridal bouquet was breath taking along with the bridesmaids and groomsmen flowers. She decorated the pews and altar of our church son beautifully. She made our visions come to life [and even better]. Throughout the wedding planning she was very communicative and responsive. She is very old school and we have now adopted her as our Aunt. Connie is a pleasure to work with and we are so thankful we went with her services. Don't second hesitate and book Connie today! We LOVE her.
Connie did a beautiful job with our wedding flowers! We got bouquets, boutonnières, corsages, ceremony decor, centerpieces, sweetheart table decor, and flowers for our cake and everything was gorgeous! Connie was great to work with through this whole process and so nice!
Connie was so sweet and kind to work with. We were slightly disappointed with the way things turned out the day of our wedding. We had provided detailed photos of our vision and what we were looking for but the day of were surprised with how different everything was. There were also many items missing, but by the time we realized it, it was too late. For example, we had agreed there would be flowers set up on the tables throughout our cocktail hour room - yet, there were no flowers to be found. There were also supposed to be flower arrangements on the bars but there were not. My bridal bouquet was not as expected and neither were the bridesmaid bouquets. The mens boutonnieres were the wrong types of flowers. Our floral arch for our ceremony was not as expected. The centerpieces were smaller than expected as well and they were all different shapes and sizes. Some were very round and full while others were abnormally shaped and small. The flowers also seemed like they were dying and not fresh. Connie was so incredibly sweet to work with but overall, we were saddened by the quality we received.
Connie was an amazing florist to work with. My husband and I did not have a clear floral vision, but we met with Connie and discussed color schemes and budget, and she was able to come up with beautiful bouquets, corsages, hair pieces, and centerpieces that matched our style and vision. She showed us many options in person, and offered us to pay in full and lock in the previous year's pricing now. She also offered us flowers for our cake for free. Connie checked in multiple times leading up to the wedding to ensure that our timing, numbers, and vision was still the same. The day of the wedding, Connie arrived while we were getting ready and took care of all of our flower decorations and set up with our venue. We didn't get to see her to say goodbye but the bouquets turned out better than I ever expected. We even saved our bouquet after and it lasted for an additional 4 days in water! I hope my family has the opportunity to work with Connie again. I will never forget how her flowers looked in our wedding photos
We met and booked with Connie back in February 2022. I had many ideas and changes and Connie always went with the flow. She was always available by text or call when I had a question or new idea and provided a mock up of the centerpieces about two months before our wedding. The only “down side” is that she didn’t have the specific kinds of tall centerpieces holders/candles that I wanted, so I purchased them myself. Not a big deal! She set everything up beautifully and our guests were able to take home centerpieces.
I cannot begin to explain how easy Connie made the process of working together! I was NOT a pinterest bride, and was able to very broadly explain my vision - Connie took it and ran with it... Everything was STUNNING and simple without looking like we missed anything.
Connie was an absolute pleasure to work with it, and her work is STUNNING. I sent her some inspiration pictures, and she really just took my vague ideas and ran with it. She put together a beautiful tablescape with eucalyptus and a wildflower bouquet with some pops of color, just like I asked. She even made me a sample bouquet to see before the wedding. The whole process was enjoyable and exciting, and I could not believe how beautiful she made everything look on the day of. Thank you, Connie, for your beautiful work!!!
I used Connie for my wedding in October, she is AMAZING and so easy to work with. If there was a higher rating then 5 stars she deserves it.
Connie was a referral from two of my friends' weddings and we are so happy that we booked with her. Our initial meeting was fantastic, and Connie had so many photos of her work so that we could see everything that we were requesting. She was always available to take our phone calls if we had a question and she was very good at getting in contact with our venue and church for her to get in and set up. The bouquets, centerpieces, boutonnieres were absolutely perfect and just what we had envisioned. We are so happy with how everything turned out with Connie!
LOVED working with Connie! She was a dream and her gift with flowers shows! She did an incredible job with the flowers for our day! HIGHLY recommend!
Connie was great to work with. Originally, I didn’t even want flowers for my wedding but she completely changed my mind. She was so knowledgeable about flowers and had an iPad full of pictures of her past work. She put together 3 bouquets, 9 boutonnieres, 1 beautiful chuppah, 18 centerpieces, and 1 sweetheart table. I will say that before I booked her she called me excessively, and after I booked her she never put together a sample centerpiece as discussed. Regardless, her work made my wedding day even more beautiful.
From the beginning, Connie was amazing. She listened to exactly what I wanted and showed examples of previous work to get an idea of what I wanted. About 10 days before the wedding I found out my venue didn’t have an alter, I called Connie in a panic! She calmed me down and offered suggestions to help, she really went above and beyond. The day of the wedding when the flowers arrived, I was speechless. Her flowers were perfect and exactly what I wanted. I would definitely recommend Connie! Thank you! x
I looked into a few florists, but after meeting with Connie and seeing her samples I went with her. She is such a nice person, extremely welcoming, and flexible with your budget. I paid upfront about 9 months ahead of our wedding which many people would warn you not to do, but she is trustworthy and all was fine. She’s very easy to reach through email or by phone which is great. I wanted to do something different for the bridesmaids and do a floral hoop for them to carry and they turned out beautiful. My cascading bouquet was beautiful as well and the garland runners/flower boxes for table decorations looked great. My only complaint is that the flowers for our chuppah did not look anything like what was drawn up in our contract. For $400 there were minimal flowers on it and not in the correct placement. The chuppah, which my venue provided, already came with a lot of “filler” like decorative twigs, branches, and leaves and I was disappointed to only see a few flowers on either side for the price we paid. I emailed Connie a few days after the wedding with pictures of it and almost 2 weeks later have not received a response.
Connie was amazing! So easy to work with. She made sample center pieces about 2 months before our wedding. She contacted me for updates as the day got closer and closer. The flowers were fresh and beautiful. She decorated our cake and sweetheart table. We were all blown away by the work she did.
The flowers we had by Connie were gorgeous. Everything was so fresh and it would be hard pressed to miss if they were not, given all of the light simple colors. In fact my bouquet which was stunning and full, lasted days after the wedding. I had many compliments on the table center pieces. She did towers and tall vases for us which looked fabulous. I didn't even have to spend much time with her for her to envision exactly what I wanted. The flowers for the bouquets and family members were perfect. My personal favorite was the very sweet baby's breathe arrangement with bows on our dogs collars who partook in the wedding day. I highly recommend Connie and loved working with her. She did not disappoint whatsoever!
I want to start off by saying we chose Florals by Connie Reimer because of the reviews and because upon meeting w her we felt comfortable and confident. She is really nice and called to check on us every few months. She worked with us and after paying six THOUSAND dollars up front, we were expecting the most beautiful floral arrangements for our June wedding. About two months before the wedding, I called to add a small bouquet for the gifting to the Virgin Mary. She added this, at no extra cost which was really nice. But it wasn’t until we actually saw the bouquet that we understood why. That’s when the first thing went wrong- we went to the church and we saw that it was about two flowers and one leaf. It was actually quite embarrassing. We have been to weddings where the gift is much bigger. But because she added this at no extra cost, we decided to not bring it up. Then, we get to the reception... the roses in the bridesmaids bouquets and my own, were all turning brown. Not to mention that because of the flowers used, they all looked like different sizes. Fast forward to the first look at our reception once everything was set up— complete disappointment. The centerpieces were NOT what I paid for nor what I had asked for. On the phone she reassured me that it would be all white roses with a little bit of dusty miller. Let’s just say, it was green leaves With about two or three pieces of dusty miller and some roses. When we called, she said she used about 30 roses for each. I don’t think there was one centerpiece that had more than 20 roses. I wish I could post a picture. These were $250 centerpieces. And it was mostly green leaves, not even the green leaves I HAD ASKED AND PAID FOR.
Overall, it was the most disappointing part of the wedding day. I called her that day w my cellphone, no answer. We called from my husbands phone, who she didn’t have saved, and she picked up right away. Was she apologetic? Sure. Did she ruin our florals? 100%. I would not recommend her and I am never using her again for any of my events. If you do, make sure she at least makes you a sample.
Connie is AMAZING! What a great person and great florist. She totally just understood what I was looking for, wasn’t pushy and literally did everything I wanted with my flowers and more! The centerpieces were BEAUTIFUL! Her work was tremendous and she is just a lovely person!
Thanks again Connie!

Connie went above and beyond for our wedding!! She was able to take our ideas and transform them into something absolutely breathtaking! Not to mention, Connie is very responsive, flexible, and punctual- all qualities which are extremely important for a vendor to have! Choosing to work with Connie was, hands down, one of the best decisions we made for our big day! Connie's passion for what she does and compassion for her clients shines through her work, and I would not hesitate working with her again!!
Connie did a wonderful job with all our bouquets, corsages, boutonnières, centerpieces, and floral arrangements for the church. They delivered everything nice and early and everything was set up perfectly. The flowers held up super well through the day too. I highly recommend her!
The flowers that Connie put together for our wedding turned out to be so lovely. She really worked with us on the budget to put together arrangements that went perfectly with the rest of the decor in the room without blowing up our budget. She even accommodated a change a few weeks before the wedding to have no throwing bouquet and instead added those flowers to the cake, which just made the cake even prettier. I'd recommend Connie a million times over!
Connie came highly recommended by a friend and she did not disappoint! I didn't want to spend a ton of money on flowers. Connie worked within my budget - she never tried to convince me to spend more or skimp on the quality/quantity of the flowers. She checked-in three times before the wedding to confirm all of the details were the same. She made this process easy and (surprisingly) fun! I would recommend Connie to any bride looking for quality flowers at an adorable price! She was excellent!
Connie did an amazing job on our flowers! The centerpiece's were exactly what we wanted and more! The bouquets I couldn't be any happier with! Connie went above and beyond to make our day so special!
Connie did an incredible job with our flowers. We met with her about six months before our wedding, and described what we were looking for. It's definitely a leap of faith when you can't see exactly what you're getting, but we were beyond thrilled with what Connie put together. My bouquet and our centerpieces were gorgeous, and our chuppah was stunning. People commented on our flowers all night. We couldn't have been happier with the the flowers turned out.
Let's just start off with the fact that I was very last minute with choosing my florist. Just a little over a month before my wedding, I contacted Connie for flowers, and she said no problem. I had some things in mind, but didn't really know how to express it. Let me tell you, she made my vision come to life. She delivered my flowers at the exact time she said she would on the day of the wedding, which made things so much les stressful. She was a joy to work with.. and she doesn't break the bank! You won't be disappointed if you choose Connie.
Connie put her heart and soul into all the bouquets and centerpieces for my January wedding. She did a beautiful job and we received so many compliments. She is great to work with too, so accommodating. Worth every penny!
Personality-wise, Connie was great. She also arrived as planned and provided us with very pleasing centerpieces. However, she did not follow-through with a few of the items on our contract. For example, she did not decorate the card table as we had discussed. Also, she charged us $200 more than what she charged my friend and we had two fewer centerpieces, one less bridesmaid bouquet, a less decorated chuppah and everything else was comparable. I would have liked to have a more detailed breakdown of what exactly we were paying for and what the reason was for the price difference. It seemed as if Connie came up with a number for the final contract that was not reflective of what we received on our wedding day.
After meeting with Connie to discuss flowers for my Valentines Day Wedding I felt confident that Connie would give me beautiful flowers.
What I was unable to imagine at the time exactly how perfect and gorgeous the flowers would be.
My bouquet of red roses had crystal andvariegated leave accents.
My centerpieces (15) took my breath away.
Everyone was complimenting me on the flowers and she even put flowers on the head table and cake table.
Connie was so easy to work with and fair in her pricing...I would recommend her for any event requiring beautiful flower arrangements.
Thank you Connie!!
My wedding flowers were the part of the wedding I was least excited to plan. I had a bad experience with another vendor not being willing to put my vision into reality and so I went with Connie, a recommended vendor by our venue. Instantly, Connie and I clicked! She understood my vision and WANTED to make it happen. When she delivered the flowers to my house on my wedding day, I cried. They were even more beautiful than I could've dreamed and were the biggest surprise on my wedding day. Connie was a gem to work with and her prices were fair. She did alot for a little compared to other vendors who'd do a little for a lot.
Connie came recommended to me through a family friend and I couldn’t be happier with how my flowers turned out on my wedding day. My husband and I received a lot of compliments on how beautiful our Chuppah was decorated, how beautiful our centerpieces were and how my bouquet was one of a kind. In my first appointment with Connie, I surprised her with my bold choice in color for flowers and for wanting a cascading bouquet. Once we started talking more throughout our appointment, Connie knew exactly what flowers to bring together to make my bouquet a gorgeous piece. One thing I insisted on was a lot of roses, and Connie delivered at a reasonable price with all fresh, lasting flowers.

wow, our wedding day flowers were gorgeous! I had a very specific vision in mind and connie delivered! not only is she a joy to work with, she's extremely talented and can work wonders within a budget. absolutely love her and work and would recommend to anyone!
Connie was our florist and she provided our centerpieces, bouquets, boutinere, and flowers for the entire wedding party. The centerpieces were beautiful, although she forgot to put in a single rose in the vase. No one noticed except for my husband and I. She delivered our bouquets an hour earlier than she needed to so they were quite wilted by the time we got to the ceremony. I have no idea why she delivered them earlier than she needed to. She told us that she would decorate our cake and cake table with flowers, which she did not do as well. Luckily the venue was able to get some flowers and decorate it for us, but I was very disappointed that Connie did not do so. She told us that it was part of her package, but there were no flowers on or near the cake. The flowers she did provide were beautiful, but I was a little disappointed in the wilted bouquets and the lack of cake flowers.
We were refereed to Connie Riemer through neighbors who also used her and couldn't have been happier!
Connie has a very creative eye and a very patient personality. I came in knowing what I wanted but unable to express it. I was unfamiliar with the names of flowers or what would be in-season.
Connnie put together arrangements that were exactly what I pictured at a price that couldn't be beat! We paid a fraction of what other vendors wanted for 1 giant bridal bouquet, 4 medium sized bridesmaids bouquets, 2 mothers smaller bouquets, 12 HUGE centerpieces, entrance pillars with stones and candles, the sweetheart table, flowers and candles at the bar, and pew flowers.
The flowers lasted for DAYS after the wedding, my bridal bouquet still looking fresh when I arrived home from my honeymoon a week later.
Thanks Connie!
She was so willing to work with me on budget and made the flowers so beautiful. You won't regret it if you book her!!
There are not enough good things I could possibly say about Connie!! I barely had to give her any direction for her to totally understand the vision I wanted on my special day! The ideas she came up with were totally unique and original all staying within my budget!!! She is soo amazing- I got tonnnnnsss of compliments on my flowers and HIGHLY RECCOMEND her!! She flawlessly made the vision of my dream wedding a reality!!! Not to mention she's a pleasure to work with :)
Connie makes the most gorgeous and unique bouquets of flowers. My husband and I received numerous compliments on our chuppah and table arrangements. Connie is so personable and easy to work with. She is accommodates any budget and works with you to fit your needs. She is the best!
Connie was the best!!! Her flowers were gorgeous and she gave us such a great deal for our centerpieces, Chuppah and bouquets. My centerpieces came out exactly how I described them to her, and exactly what I had pictured they would look like. She was so patient and easy to work with, and I would definitely use her again for another event. She was very accessible, and returned my calls immediately. Any bride knows what a big part of your day your flowers are, and Connie made this whole process effortless. The flowers lasted until we returned from our honeymoon, and we were able to keep the vases and uses them in our home and give them out to our guests as a memento of our wedding.
She really used the freshest, most vibrant flowers and I can't even begin to describe how gorgeous my bouquet and centerpieces were. If you're looking for a florist for your wedding, HIRE CONNIE NOW!!!
I cannot say enough nice things about Connie Riemer. I visited with 3 other florists before I met with Connie. Thank goodness I met with her before making a decision. She was at least $1000 cheaper than any of the other florists and offered me the most for my money! She will work with any budget and she is the sweetest person!
She also gave me exactly what I wanted. The flowers were fresh and beautiful and stayed that way the whole night. I was very picky about the flowers (no green, very round looking, and nothing spiky/not a lot of texture) and she took note of everything I wanted and made it perfect. She does a mockup for free as well. I also had a huge a wedding and had last minute additional tables and she added centerpieces with no problem!
PLEASE PLEASE check out Connie Riemer if you are looking for flowers for your wedding. I cannot say enough good things about her! She was so wonderful to work with and I would absolutely recommend her to everyone!
I had a great experience with Connie Riemer. She listens very sensitively to her brides and the vision they have for their wedding flowers -- from their bouquets to centerpieces. All the flowers she provided for me exceeded my expectations in terms of beauty and were perfectly fresh. Also, Connie can work with any budget large, small and anything in between.
Connie did an amazing job with all my flower needs; the wedding party bouquets, flowers for the church and the centerpieces for the reception. She only does weddings, which is her expertise. The centerpieces were absolutely beautiful. They were just what I asked for. Connie guided my through color schemes and was a pleasure to work with.
Connie was heaven sent! I was frustrated after being quoted a ridiculous price from another florist. I went to Connie based on recommendations from the knot and I was not disappointed at all. She was creative and honest and was willing to give me everything that I wanted at a price that I could afford. On my wedding day, everything was beautiful. The flowers were amazing. I was hesitant about using hydrangeas in my centerpieces but Connie assured me that they would be beautiful. She was right, my hydrangeas were in full bloom and beautiful. She kept in touch with me over the months to make sure that there weren't any changes and when I did have last minute changes, she was able to get exactly what we needed. She's very professional! I would highly recommend Connie!
I was looking for a florist that was willing to work with a small budget but with a quality product. Connie Riemer stayed within my budget and found great ways to cut costs in order to provide beautiful bouquets and centerpieces.
