We loved working with Mariah and the team at Gather Floral for our wedding. I knew I wanted fall colors with subtle nods to the season, and Mariah helped me narrow that idea into a...
cohesive, thoughtful vision that truly complemented our venue. She was so intentional about using the space and helped us creatively reuse and repurpose floral pieces throughout the event, which made everything feel seamless and elevated.
Mariah communicated clearly and consistently throughout the entire process, which made trusting her incredibly easy. On the wedding day, everything turned out beautifully. Our florals were stunning and felt perfectly “us.”
I would absolutely recommend working with Mariah and Gather Floral to anyone looking for a florist who is creative, thoughtful, and a joy to collaborate with!
Mariah and Gather Floral did such a beautiful job for our wedding. From the beginning, I decided to book Mariah as our florist because she just GOT it. I sent Mariah and Gather Flo...
ral one email, a couple of pins on Pinterest and she immediately understood the vision I was going for. Florals can add up fast so I really wanted to prioritize beautiful flowers and colors, without breaking the bank. She provided beautiful bud vase centerpieces for half our reception tables and candles and greenery for the other half, which was a gorgeous way to add something to the room without going overboard. She also had a beautiful floral design on the arch for our ceremony that was more beautiful than I could ever have imagined. Saving my favorite thing for last - my bouquet. The colors, the flowers, the shape of it all… truly it was the most gorgeous bouquet I’ve ever seen and I couldn’t have loved it more. Thank you so much for helping make our wedding day so beautiful!
Mariah and her team are AMAZING! I knew my wedding florals were going to be great once she sent me the initial proposal, but it exceeded my expectations day of. All the floral pi...

All of the flowers were absolutely stunning. Mariah was wonderful. She even managed to save the day when I accidentally gave the the wrong number of table arrangements for the rece...
ption. She managed to make two extras at the last minute and never made a fuss about it. She also brought to life an archway that I found on Pinterest and made it look just like the original.

my order on her a little over a month before the wedding! She did everything perfectly- even had vases set on our head table for the bridesmaid bouquets to be placed during the reception since I hadn’t chosen flower arrangements there. She was on site right before the ceremony to fix groomsmen boutennoires that had wilted or fallen off during photos. I can’t say enough of how impressed I was working with Mariah during my whole planning process. I’ve gotten so many raving reviews of the flowers during my event.
Mariah is amazing and her work was so much better than I had imagined. She made it easy to choose things that were what I wanted but also kept me within a budget. I did not see any...
of the arrangements until I came out the door for my ceremony. The ceremony arrangements, centerpieces, and the bouquets were so much better than I could have ever expected! Me and my husband both spent our entire honeymoon week raving about the flowers. Mariah will not disappoint!
I cannot adequately express how fantastic Mariah was to work with for our floral design. It's incredibly rare that something visually exceeds my expectations so completely. Her f...
inal designs were exactly what I wanted, but better than I ever imagined. She was responsive, cost conscious, and made my ideas into an elegant, vibrant reality. My guests could not stop talking about the flowers- we didn't do any giant constructs, but her gorgeous centerpieces had such a high-value impact. I have a photo of my wedding bouquet as my laptop background now, because it was just so stunning and brings back such happy, emotional memories of the day. Work with Gather Floral - Mariah is a true artisan and professional.
Mariah is so wonderful! She made my vision come to life and it created a magical ambiance for our wedding!!
I had the best experience working with Mariah for my wedding. She is so easy to work with through email and really made my ideas come to life with her beautiful flowers. Thank you ...

Gather Floral designed my bridal bouquet so perfectly! It was breathtaking and I got so many compliments.
Truly my best wedding decision. First of all, I loved Mariah’s natural, romantic floral style when I first saw pictures here on the knot. To be honest, my venue and photographer bo...
th said, “who?” When I told them Gather was my florist. But oh my gosh. The front the initial contact to service along the way to the final product—everythinf was amazing. Mariah was incredible from the start and provided a proposal that 1000% fit my style AND budget. I had some changes along the way and Mariah was so gracious and helpful with every question. She even texted me a sneak peek of the bouquet the day before the wedding. The final product was incredible and I could not have been happier with our centerpieces, bouquets, and other decor. I was so in love when I saw the final set up on my wedding day.
Mariah is a rock star. She took my crazy vision and modge podge of photos and ideas and made my floral dreams come true! The bouquets were amazing and every detail was perfect. She...

e, the construction of the bouquets was incredibly sloppy. My bridal bouquet almost fell apart every time I touched it. There was also an incorrect number or corsages and boutonnieres.
Mariah helped complete the exact atmosphere that we were hoping for with her floral arrangements for our wedding. She was so helpful in her suggestions for arrangements, as I do n...
ot know much about flowers or their characteristics. and the arrangements she delivered on our wedding day were far greater than what we expected. We would highly recommend working with Gather to anybody looking for a florist. Thank you!
Mariah was absolutely phenomenal to work with! She listened to what we wanted, and made it fit within our budget. We sent her photos of what we had in mind, and she added her own f...
lare to make it her own masterpiece. We had a different vision for our centerpieces, and asked to have growlers/liquor bottles filled with greenery and hydrangeas; Mariah knocked it out of the park completely! From our centerpieces, gorgeous ceremony vases, bridal bouquets & boutonnieres, to the bridal table flowers, and greenery garland, everything was above and beyond what we were looking for.
Mariah was a pleasure to work with. I was truly blown away by her creative ability to turn my idea into a dream come true. The flowers and greenery for my wedding were absolutely b...
reathtaking!
There are no words to describe how amazing Mariah is! She did all of the flowers for my wedding last month and I cannot rave about her enough. I don't know much about flowers, so I...
sent her some random pictures from Pinterest and she used them to put together the most beautiful arrangements and bouquets. She added beautiful touches to my decorations and the small details she added really made a huge difference. I also asked her, very last minute, to create extra table arrangements, flowers to decorate the buffet table, and flowers for the ceremony and she was able to accommodate my request without any hassle. I would HIGHLY recommend Mariah to anyone!
I had the best experience working with Gather Floral. I only provided color concepts to her, because I don't know very much about flowers, and it was as if she knew what was inside...
my head. Her vision and mine were perfectly intertwined. She even made a special delivery to where I was getting ready to drop off the bouquets. Every part of the process was easy and stressless because I trusted the quality and the integrity of this business. I was a very satisfied and happy bride!
I can't rate Mariah highly enough for the job she did. Mariah took care of my bridal bouquet for me and did it while working with me from states away. I was unable to meet with Mar...
iah in person until the day I picked up my bouquet due to living in Louisiana, but it was everything I envisioned and more. She worked within my budget and was extremely accommodating with quick responses and thorough answers. I highly recommend her for any floral needs.

A huge thank you to Mariah and Gather Floral for doing an amazing job! I had the pleasure of having her as the florist for my big day! I couldn't have been more pleased with how a...
mazing all of our arrangements looked. Everything from the bridal bouquets, to the littlest of details on a sign; she had everything I could have wanted covered. She made a stress free wedding day for me. On top of how everything looked Mariah was very easy to communicate with and professional. As we made changes through the process she was so accommodating and understanding. Thank you, Mariah!!!
Mariah is truly an artist! She did the arrangements for the cocktail hour at my wedding, and they were all beautiful and matched my aesthetic perfectly. It's obvious she loves what...
she does, because she is so easy to work with. Having vendors that are low stress the day of your wedding is crucial and Mariah is just that. She is dependable and will work with you to make sure your arrangements are within your budget and part of your vision for whatever your special occasion is. Can't say enough great things!
I can't say enough good things about Mariah! I felt so confident in her from the moment we met. I shared some ideas from Pinterest and tried to describe what I was thinking as far...
as the palette and the feel of the wedding, and when I received Mariah's proposal I knew she understood exactly what I was going for. We continued to share a Pinterest board during the wedding planning process, and Mariah stayed in touch with me and even texted me pictures of the bouquets as she was making them the day before the wedding. The value of Mariah's services is off the charts - we received compliments all evening on how gorgeous the flowers were, and I'm pretty sure I want to hang a photograph of my bouquet in my home. I sound a little ridiculously effusive - but that's how great Gather Floral Design was! I cannot recommend highly enough.
Mariah did an amazing job designing the bouquets and such for our wedding. She arranged and put together a breathtaking flower crown for my sweet flower girl and all of my bridesma...
