My husband and I got married Dec 2021 at FEAST at Round Hill. Flowers by Jo-Ann is one of their recommended vendors, but I also did a bunch of research prior to choosing them. I am beyond happy I chose to work with Debbie. Debbie was a pleasure... to work with. We met over zoom for our initial consultation, which was ideal during Covid. She spent a lot of time with me working through the things I was interested in. I let her know I have very limited knowledge of flowers and she was so kind to show me things, tell me what they were, and ask me what I liked. It was so encouraging, because some other vendors expected me to know exactly what I wanted and that seemed impossible!
Ahead of our consultation, she asked me to send pictures of what the bridal party was wearing as well as an inspirational Pinterest board of the types of bouquets and decor I liked. I had created the centerpieces myself as well, so she asked for pictures of those too.
I cannot stress enough how accommodating and respectful Debbie was about making sure I felt good about every little detail of floral decor. Since I was adamant on creating the centerpieces myself, she really helped me make sure I thought through how things would look with the addition of flowers and greenery. I really appreciated that.
I also let Debbie know I was tight on our budget and she did an excellent job making it work. I even considered some fake greenery and she gave me some ideas (but I ended up choosing against it in the end, mostly because I didn’t want to store more decor post-wedding). The transparency she provided was so helpful.
Anyways, Debbie made the process simple. Day of the wedding, Debbie and her family crew came in way ahead of time to set up. I was busy getting hair and makeup done with the ladies so I didn’t get to interact much with everyone, but I wasn’t worried at all considering how smooth things we already going since day 1 of working with her. I had my bridal party set up the centerpieces I created and her crew worked around them to add the floral arrangements. Her crew set up all the ceremony decor, and they were done so fast! It looked so amazing. Honestly, I felt like everything looked better than I could have ever imagined. Most of the stuff I ordered was greenery with some white flower accents. It wasn’t anything super extravagant due to our budget of 2000, but the way it all looked in the end made me feel like it was (in a very special kind of way).
Based on discussions with staff at FEAST, Debbie has been in business for a very long time. She is so skilled at what she does and I will certainly recommend her to family and friends in the future. My friend is getting married at FEAST in April 2022. They chose her too!
Thanks so much for making our wedding even more spectacular, Debbie, Ivy, and Flowers by Jo-Ann Staff!
