We are thrilled that we chose Flowers by David Anthony. David was so easy to work with - we weren’t 100% sure about some of the florals we wanted, and we had a modest florals budge...
t - and he took the time to show us different options and develop our vision. He was so patient when we kept asking to see different things and receptive to our making changes until everything was perfect. The day of our wedding everything went seamlessly. All of our bouquets/florals were arranged and delivered on time and looked exactly how we wanted them. We are not really flower people but David far exceeded any expectations we had. We only wish flowers lasted forever so we could keep the beautifully stunning arrangements.
Flowers by David Anthony gave us the most incredible florals for our wedding! Thank you for making our day so beautiful! We absolutely loved the amazing and elaborate centerpieces ...
that elevated our ballroom!
Flowers by David Anthony was the exact right choice for our wedding and I can’t imagine having used any one else to help make our wedding day perfect.
When we first began planning ...
our wedding I was sure we could handle all of the florals on our own with the help of my sister. I quickly realized that was not the case and I absolutely needed to secure a florist. I did always know that I wanted my sister to create our bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages, so that quickly turned off a lot of florists I spoke with. Not David! David was completely understanding of that sentimental element and was completely fine with it. Not only that, he has a great amount of experience with Bear Mountain weddings. He listened to what I wanted, he gave me tips on what to do and what not to do and he was extremely reasonable in price.
The bouquet he crafted for me was exquisite and he included beautiful elements to remember my late step dad including wrapping one of his ties around the stems.
David and his team were a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a florist whether your event is big or small, no matter the vision!
We had the pleasure of working with David Anthony for our wedding and we cannot say enough good things about him. From the start he tackled our wedding head on making sure he had ...
every detail of what we were asking for ironed out. In good bridal fashion I completely flipped the entire floor plan for dinner and location of the cocktail hour 1 week before our wedding going from round tables to long and from outside to inside. David didn't blink an eye. He came up with creative ways for our new floor plan to shine even more than our original which was all executed beautifully...Now to the flowers 😍😍😍😍. The colors were exactly what we wanted and the variety and selection of flowers were perfect. David listened to every single detail and left no stone unturned. I am in the process of preserving my bouquet because I couldn't bear to part with it. Our centerpieces were the big show stopper, perfect for what we were looking for. We had people fighting over them at the end. David we are so grateful for all of your hard work and cant thank you enough for how beautiful you made our wedding. The compliments were endless. Hire David Anthony ..it will be the best decision you make
David Anthony was beyond incredible. He was so attentive on the day of, everything was handled with care. The centerpiece that he made as a sample was exactly the same beautiful on...
es that we got at the reception. He did incredible work, everyone was floored by the flowers. The centerpieces stayed on our tab les at home for at least a week afterwards, I couldn't part with them. Thank you guys so much!
David did such a wonderful job with the flowers for my wedding! He was a pleasure to work with, from the initial conversation about what I was looking for, all the way up until my ...
wedding day. He made all the decisions easy by giving recommendations and letting me know about different options. He was very accommodating when it came to making changes to my original order. When I saw my wedding venue all set up with the flowers, I was so happy with the turnout. I would highly recommend booking David as your wedding florist. He does amazing work and everything turned out beautiful.
David is the absolute best! He is so knowledgeable, will answer any questions or concerns you have, and he is honest about any visions you may already have in mind and will work wi...

beautifully! The entire experience was seamless and we had a lovely, interactive engagement at his store and he made sure he knew what we were looking for before we left. We'd gladly recommend him again and again and often joke that it was way too easy working with David!
Absolutely nailed my wedding vision!
We are so grateful to have worked with David for florals on our wedding day. He did an absolutely beautiful job capturing a summery, light and bright color palette for our July wed...
ding. He captured our vision and executed it flawlessly. The day of our wedding we had agreed to start setting up the arrangements at 12:30PM and he was at our venue by 11AM making sure everything was delivered and was being set up. It was a great experience, we can't recommend Flowers by David Anthony enough!
I was recommended to use Flowers by David Anthony from our venue, The Thayer hotel in west Point Ny. I can not be happier with this decision we made, his personality , his flowers...
, his communication! This man truly loves his job- and he shows in his work . I told Dave - I was a simple bride - and that I trusted him and let him go with his vision. I am so happy we did. I could never have picked what he put together for us. This is their job! Trust them ! In the end it will be better than what you ever imagined!!

I was recommended to use Flowers by David Anthony from our venue, Brotherhood Winery. So glad we did! David is great. So easy to work with and so knowledgeable. He created amazing ...
floral arrangements for our wedding. We barely knew where to start with the floral arrangements and David easily guided the way. What he created exceeded our expectations by far! I was especially in love with my bridal bouquet. It was better than I even dreamed it would be. He truly captured our inspiration and then made it even better. Trust me, you will be glad you chose him for our flowers!
I got married at Brotherhood Winery on 10.07.23 and was recommended to use Flowers by David Anthony--thank goodness! I am not a big design or flower person in general so I struggle...
d to know what I actually wanted besides a few pictures of Pinterest inspiration. David went above and beyond and made the whole process seamless. We met at the shop in August to look at our mockup centerpieces and were absolutely blown away. He is truly an expert and artist in his craft. He even advised us down to the linen colors on the table to ensure the flowers were the most important 'pop' of color on the table. Again, something I never would have even thought about. When we finalized the seating chart (only about a week and a half before the wedding) and had 19 tables instead of 20, he happily adjusted the final count and even added 3 more corsages at the last minute bc my fiance forgot about a few people we wanted to honor (lol). David made sure to call for approval for some beautiful fall flowers that he recommended as they were not in the original mockup as well as for ribbon colors for the bouquets. I was beyond happy to just say 'let David use his expertise, I trust him' which honestly was the best decision as it took an unwanted decision off my plate and he TRULY knows best!! The flowers were delivered early to the church by his lovely wife while he set up the reception flowers at the venue, again making the experience truly seamless. I didn't once have to worry about the setup even though I would not be able to be there until the reception began. David also provided loose flowers to decorate the cake which came out absolutely stunning. My bouquet was the most beautiful floral arrangement I have ever seen and the other bouquets and boutonnières were so naturally gorgeous but also allowed mine to be the 'shop stopper.' 10/10 would recommend using Flowers by David Anthony for your wedding or next big event! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
David made our wedding more beautiful than we could have ever imagined!! Even with huge last minute changes due to ever-changing weather, David created the most amazing ceremony ar...
rangements for our outdoor ceremony and beautiful centerpieces to bring our indoor reception to life! Throughout our wedding planning process we felt excited and at ease when working with David! He welcomed us into his shop and sat down with us to discuss exactly what we wanted; David is beyond personable and easy to work with! We can’t wait to visit Flowers By David Anthony soon for all of our floral bouquets and future celebrations!

redibly nice. He took our ideas and turned them into the most beautiful floral pieces. He created a gorgeous floral arch for our ceremony, perfect centerpieces, and the most beautiful bouquets that all of my guests commented on how much they loved them! I was even able to drop off a piece of my mother's wedding dress that he incorporated into my bouquet which was so meaningful and special to me and my family! David's experience and knowledge about flowers makes him priceless. Seriously... hire him ASAP!!
Our florist was the last vendor that we booked. I don't know a lot about flowers so I was looking for someone who would be able to lead us in the right direction. We met with a f...
ew florists before David because we were trying to find quality for our budget. When we met with David he sold us because of his experience in the industry, reputation, and the quality that he promised. I also liked that he knew our venue and that he would give us a centerpiece sample prior to the big day that was included in his price. He was always available for questions and never took longer than a day to respond. On the day of our wedding, I was completely blown away by our flowers. My bouget and the bridesmaids' bougets were the most beautiful flowers I had ever seen. Such a good quality! Not to mention the ceremony flowers and welcome sign. David exceeded our expectations, and it was worth every penny. You can't go wrong if you hire him!

ned to my requests, shared his ideas and always tried to meet my expectations. He knew how important flowers and colors were to me. I will never forget the moment when I was getting ready for the ceremony. My makeup artist just finished my makeup as David walked to the room to give me my bouquet. I have never seen anything more beautiful!! It was exactly what I imagined it would be! Thank goodness the makeup artist was still there to fix my makeup since I was crying like a little girl!!
THANK YOU, DAVID! All flowers for my wedding were perfect!

We met David at our original venue as he was setting up for another wedding. I asked if he did a lot of weddings at that venue and he said he did. As he was setting up for the wedd...
ing, he allowed us to watch and walked us through other ways he can decorate and certain center pieces. He was also very accommodating with our multiple rescheduled dates and then our final cancellation and move to the new venue. He kept me up to date with phone calls and emails. When the flowers were delivered the morning of the wedding, his wife, Julie, set up all the tables. Because I was getting ready, she took pictures on her phone and then would come in to the suite and show me to make sure it was what I wanted. Everyone complimented the simplicity but elegance of all the flower arrangements.

He even had floral collars made for our two dogs who were in the wedding! On top of it all, he made the process so easy and straightforward and it was like working with a friend. We can’t thank him enough for everything!
I can't say enough about David and his team at Flowers by David Anthony. They are the nicest people to work with, aren't afraid to give their honest opinion and also help steer you...
in the right direction as far as flower choices that are in season and more affordable as opposed to flowers that are not in season. David and his team were always very responsive, very professional, always helpful when I asked for their professional advice and made my vision truly come to life. The flower arrangements were simply stunning and when our ceremony was moved last minute indoors due to the weather, David gave us a truly romantic vibe and gorgeous arrangements for a smaller scale pergola. From the bouquets to the centerpieces to babies breath on the aisle chairs, everything was absolutely gorgeous. At the end of the night guests were just about competing for a centerpiece to take home because they were so beautiful. I highly recommend David and his team, you will not be disappointed and they truly go above and beyond to make your vision come to life!

We started working with David for our original wedding, which was supposed to be a large spring wedding. With COVID we had to change course and ended up having a micro fall weddin...
g at a new location with a totally different style. David was so easy to work with to change the original wedding vision into a whole new vision to match the new venue and season. He helped to tie what were originally spring bridesmaids dresses into a fall theme with the bouquets seamlessly. All of the floral arrangements were elegant and more than I could have ever imagined. I am also amazed because the flowers in the centerpieces lasted and looked incredible for so long after! We were even able to use them for our Thanksgiving table the week after. I am just blown away by David's work and working with him was a pleasure as well.
Absolutely incredible. I booked David Anthony on the spot when we first met. I loved the work he showed me and his personality. He was great in working with me when I changed my mi...

*Update* My husband and I finally got to have our wedding reception in October 2021 and oh my goodness David and his team created the most beautiful flower arrangements for us! David was so helpful during this whole process and had the best insight and creative ideas for our flowers. Come the day of our wedding, I started crying at the sight of my bouquet, it was absolutely stunning. Our flower arch and centerpieces for our wedding ceremony were everything I dreamed of and more. We cannot thank David enough for his amazing work!

The guests were blown away and the end product was truly a sight to behold. David Anthony knew exactly the vibe we were going for and made our wedding day quite the spectacle. I would highly recommend him for any and everything you need. He also went out of his way to offer us advice on planning and other wedding aesthetics that we hadn't even thought of. Such a great experience from start to finish and can't wait to use him again and again and again.

Everyone still talks about our centerpieces and my bouquet. He captured all the colors of fall in my flowers! We did our day of coordination through David as well and Julia was amazing. She handled everything for me and always offered to do more. She was extremely organized and super timely with responses/answers. She made sure every vendor was on the same page. She went above and beyond for us during our reception and made sure I was okay throughout the night. I can’t recommend David and Julia enough. They really worked hard to make sure everything was perfect and it truly was!
