Holly and her team are truly experts in their field. The flowers were everything I could have dreamed of and more. Sydney was the main contact for my wedding and she was the best. She was so sweet and so professional. I highly recommend using them for your wedding.
As someone who works in the wedding industry (I'm a photographer), I've admired many florists' work over the years. Holly was on my short list based on work of hers I'd seen, and after speaking with her and a few other florists by phone/Zoom, my planner and I were blown away by Holly's professionalism—head and shoulders over anyone else we talked to.
We had a general vision and mood, but from there, let Holly and her team have control on overall flower choices and other elements, and she used her expertise and flexibility to KNOCK OUR FLOWERS OUT OF THE PARK, without relying on a plethora of expensive stems, but instead what was seasonal and/or available from her own flower farm(!)
Late in the process, we weighed a few additions and changes to things like ribbon color, and Holly handled it with grace and ease. She was also so accommodating of me wanting a trial floral crown for my hair trial a month before the wedding, and even arranged for me to send the wire crown from the trial back to her for use on my wedding day.
On our wedding day, not only were the floral arrangements and my personal bouquet and flower crown BREATHTAKING, but Holly and her team were SO professional, and worked beautifully, efficiently, and confidently in our somewhat-restrictive, challenging historic venue—even as, I would learn after the fact, she actively navigated a family emergency the weekend of our wedding. She even personally delivered my bouquet and floral crown to my bridal suite to check in on me.
We heard from our guests over and over again about how spectacular the flowers were. Holly blew us, our planner, and our guests away. People are STILL talking about the flowers, over a month after our wedding.
Words can't even begin to express how amazing Holly and her team are. From the very first day I met Holly at her farm for a design meeting, I knew I made the right decision. Holly is one of the warmest and kindest people I've ever met, and that love and warmth truly comes out in her work. A true visionary, I knew I wanted to give Holly license to just create and dream up something extraordinary with little direction other than general flowers I like. Having my wedding be impacted by COVID and restrictions in place 2 months out, Holly offered for my husband and I to get married at her farm. At the time I declined, because I was so upset and still cautiously optimistic that we'd be able to press forward with our original plans. Little did I know, that wouldn't happen, so two weeks before our original wedding date (May 2020) I agreed and Holly welcomed us with open arms. To make the day more special, she surprised us with take home arrangements for the women in my family who were in attendance and setup a lovely tablescape. The generosity she showed continued to amaze me. Holly and her team hung in with us for another year, as we still were committed to having a larger celebration with even more family and friends, which we were able to do in June 2021. Yet again, Holly dreamed up perfection and I've now gained a friend and floral designer for life. You can't go wrong deciding to work with Holly.
Holly went above and beyond and created a gorgeous wedding tableau. We truly appreciated all of her special touches and our guests were so impressed!
Holly truly is amazing. I had a vision for what I wanted my floral designs to look like for my wedding day and my reception but I wasn't sure how to bring them to life. Holly put my dreams into reality for my wedding day! The flowers were breathtaking. She is such a creative and talented person I was so glad I got the privilege to work with her.
Holly is not only perhaps the most talented artist I have ever had the honor of working with, but she is genuinely a thoughtful, passionate and generous person. I had the honor of working with Holly, Sydney and the team on TWO wedding days; my husband left for a deployment overseas, and she surprised us with the most stunning bridal bouquet I have ever seen. Not to be outdone, our large wedding a few months later turned out better than I could have ever dreamed of. With little direction from me, I offered some ideas of colors and my "vision", but she created floral masterpieces with beautiful gems from her farm. Before meeting Holly, admittedly, I didn't think flowers could really make a big impact on a wedding...but boy, was I wrong! We were so lucky to have worked with Holly, and I don't feel like I just worked with a florist, but with a friend.
Holly and team did a beautiful job on our floral. We chose a "From The Garden" offering, that allowed us to share local Virginia floral with our friends and families. It couldn't have been more delightful! As a bride, I only had to provide Holly with a few details of my dress and personal style, and she absolutely nailed it!
Flowers were not the most important thing on my wedding "want" list UNTIL I met Holly!
I had been following Holly Chapple Flowers on social media for years, as she had worked with several friends and colleagues of mine on weddings that I had attended or seen.
I had always thought her work was stunning, so reaching out to Holly about our own wedding after we got engaged was an easy choice, but I wasn't really sure I wanted to make the flowers the most important part of our big day, or of what "look" I was really even going for in our decor...
Holly and her team did the most AMAZING job in both helping bring our design to life and in executing it to its full potential.
Working with what seemed like a pretty broad color scheme (neutrals, blush, and metallics with pops of burgundy, merlot and pink), Holly used her local, seasonal blooms to design a gorgeous palate that fit our venue and style to a T.
Her experience and knowledge of her craft is obvious just in looking at her work, but her talents and abilities go beyond the aesthetic to make each of her designs unique and personal.
From thinking to include hops in the boutonnieres for my Chef fiancé and his food-industry groomsmen, to matching the ribbons on the bridesmaids bouquets to each of their six different dresses (a look I wasn't even sure was going to come together), every floral design was flawless, and we cannot thank Holly and her team enough for helping make our wedding day so beautiful.
Holly is incredible! She did the design and flowers for my wedding and I can't begin to describe how incredibly beautiful everything was. I left much of the details up to Holly and was blown away by how beautiful and well-planned the entire wedding weekend was. I can't recommend Holly enough. She is a genius and also so fun to work with!
Holly Chapple is incredibly knowledgeable about flowers and setting the right tone for the wedding. While we didn't use flowers for our overall decor (we had non-traditional centerpieces), we worked with Holly for our attendants flowers and my bridal bouquet. I sent along pictures of flowers I like and had two lengthy discussions with Holly about options -- she clearly wanted the flowers to be just right for the big day.
She outdid herself. The bouquets and boutonnieres were gorgeous and just right.
Holly is an artist through and through. If you're looking for high-impact florals, you must talk to her!
Holly is a phenomenal person and expert florist/designer. She really does know how to create a "brand" in floral design, and her brand is a very desired one! Her flowers are absolutely gorgeous and she also has a large selection of vases, votives, and other accents (that you "rent" from her for a small fee) to help create your entire center pieces in a one stop shop. I came to her with a Pinterest board full of flowers I couldn't name and she transformed it into beautiful bouquets and center pieces for my wedding day with a nearly perfect match to my wedding flower dreams. The downside is how expensive she is and how little you are able to buy for such a high price. Holly's business is growing substantially now (and for good reason) and it's also difficult to have additional talks with her. When you get her time, she is completely about you; but you only get one or two talks with her or you must pay an addittional fee. If you go with Holly, there is no way you will be disappointed with her flowers--not possible--but just be prepared to pay the price and make use of your time with her!
Meeting with Holly was inspiring - we told her about our color scheme and the sort of feel we wanted from our wedding and she showed us some photos to figure out what sort of arrangements we liked. Then, she took it from there! The finished bouquets, boutonnieres, and arrangements were absolutely perfect - they fit in exactly with the rest of our celebration and made our day even more special.
Holly is an amazingly kind woman who has a gift for making weddings beautiful. I found out about Holly through my venue, and immediately felt comfortable working with her from my first meeting. She was very flexible with me in regards to my budget, and was able to capture the vision I had for my ceremony and reception with such ease. I also had Holly "style" my reception, and when my fiance and I first saw our reception space, we were completely blown away. It looked like a picture in a magazine. She went above and beyond, and made our day so special. She and her staff are so accommodating and dependable; knowing that she was taking care of making my reception beautiful made my day so much more enjoyable. Holly and her team truly gave me my fairy tale wedding.
Holly created beautiful flowers! I cannot say enough of how beautiful they were. She listened to all of the colors I wanted and found ways to incorporte my favorite color (orange) and flowers. The flowers were so bright and full of life!! They even smelled lovely and lasted for a few days. :)
We absolutely LOVE Holly. Her eye for detail and her passion for flowers is unmatched. She really gets to know you and matches your personality for your wedding day. Our reception was stunning - flowers, candles, votives! Every time I see a photo of my bouquet, I smile!! BEAUTIFUL!
Absolutely gorgeous! I could not have found more perfect flowers if I tried!!!!! She feels like family now!
My wedding was two weeks ago and I'm still so, so happy thinking about the flower arrangements and bouquets designed and provided by Holly Chapple. Everything at the wedding was gorgeous. I received so many compliments on the chuppah, the bouquets, the flower arrangements, and even the boutonnieres! Check out her blog - http://thefullbouquetblog.com/ - to see some examples of her work.
Holly was a delight to work with. She asked a lot of good questions and spent a long time with me and my mom going through pictures of flowers to help her figure out what kind of flowers I wanted at the wedding. She's friendly, nice and takes a lot of interest in getting to know her brides. She even called me a few days before the wedding to say hello and just make sure everything was going well! She was also very attentive to sticking to our budget.
I can’t even describe how happy I am that Holly was able to do the flowers for my wedding. She was the florist for both of my sisters’ weddings, almost ten years ago now and I immediately reached out to her as soon as I got engaged – she was the only vendor I knew I had to have! Both of my sisters raved about the work she did and since then, she has become a legend around these parts. My fiancé (now husband) and I had so much fun meeting with her and discussing the vision for the flowers –looking back, we were pretty vague about what we wanted-- rustic elegant, soft pinks and purples , greens and some whites. Holly somehow got it exactly right – above and beyond what I could have imagined myself. The bouquets brought tears to my eyes when I saw them on my wedding day…. Every detail was stunningly beautiful, and completely authentic. She has this ability to create arrangements that cater specifically to you and really reflect the bride’s vision and personality. She was also great in working to fit our budget, with ideas like using the bridesmaid and bridal bouquets for the centerpieces at the reception. The flowers were simply amazing and Holly is so much fun to work with. I feel so honored that I was able to have her design our wedding flowers and she herself is so wonderful! So, so, so thrilled with how everything turned out.
I tried describing to Holly as best I could what I thought I wanted for the wedding flowers, and the day of the wedding when they all arrived they were even more incredible than I ever could have imagined!!! I couldn't believe it. I didn't realize how much I cared about the flowers for our wedding until they showed up and they completely took my breath away. Thank you, Holly!
Words don't do justice to Holly Chapple's incredible talent. From the moment I arrived at our venue I was SPEECHLESS (that never happens). The entire place was transformed into the most incredibly romantic, picturesque, elegant setting I have ever seen in my life and Holly did that with the hundreds of arrangements she created, each one unique, each one more beautiful than the next, and all of them working together to create the most spectacular setting that my mom, my husband and I (and all of our guests) have ever seen. I wish we could've captured all of the compliments our guests made throughout the evening -- everyone was so taken with Holly's designs that people were literally stroking the centerpieces! I really hope someone got that on camera. We knew Holly was great when we saw the pictures of her work on her website and it was evident from the beginning that she has an incredible gift but holy cow -- what she created for our wedding exceeded our wildest expectations! Everything was beyond perfect. I'm still trying to pick my jaw up off the ground. Holly is the best of the best!
Holly was more than I could ask for. I found her through Cara Berger our wedding planner, and I couldn't have asked for a better florist. Not only does she do amazing work, but she is caring and loving, and she makes you feel like you have been a friend of the family for years. I didn't want to spend a lot on flowers, or go overboard with them, and Holly met those requirements with stunning artistry. The flowers were breath taking (IMHO) and actually made me tear up when she brought them up to the dressing room.
You can just see in Holly how much she loves her work, and cares about her projects. In my opinion one of the greatest things a vendor can have is love for their work.
So long story short, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Holly's work and would recommend her to anyone!
I saw a creation of Holly's on her blog that made me fall in love with wedding flowers (and I never paid that much attention to flowers before). Based on that I knew I HAD to have her as my florist. She was already overbooked on my wedding weekend, but I begged and begged her to do my flowers until she gave in. I was lucky that she is such a softie! Despite having to do flowers for 7 weddings that weekend, she delivered. My flowers were truly beautiful - lush, wispy, and airy - just as I asked.
I should note that you should give Holly time to get back to you - she is perhaps the busiest floral designer in the area (and with seven children, this is a true superwoman). Once she is able to focus on you, the wait will be worthwhile. She listened to my ideas, complemented them with her own exciting ideas and wealth of knowledge about flowers, and gave spot-on advice (not just about flowers but about weddings in general, too). I find her passion for flowers and design very inspiring.
Holly is very highly demanded for good reason - she is AMAZING at what she does, and she combines that enormous talent with a generous heart. A friend of mine made a comment that summed up Holly's work very well: "Everything in your wedding was absolutely gorgeous but I think you stole your bouquet right out of my dreams! So lovely!"
After all the positive reviews I'd heard for my wedding planner about her work I knew Holly wouldn't disappoint. She was by far the most talent wedding vendor I worked with. She really goes above and beyond and knows how to give every bride exactly what that bride needs. Even though my wedding flowers were on the smaller side in terms of the caliber of weddings Holly does she still blew me away. I am still getting compliments about how gorgeous, unique and creative the flower were. If you chose Holly for your florist you will not unhappy, she works with all budgets, but will be realistic with you about what you can get for your money. Her flowers are fresh and she will not put out a bad product. I cannot say thank you enough for the beautiful bouquets she made for me and my girls. Thanks Holly!
Holly is everything I could have asked for in a florist and MORE! She has incredible style and is so artistic. After viewing her work on her blog I knew before even meeting her I wanted her as my florist. Holly knew exactly what I was going for and truly went ABOVE AND BEYOND for me. She found incredible props ie: a cast iron chalk board for a vintage country chic look and created the most charming and stunning feeling for my wedding. I trusted her taste 100% and she never let me down. Holly loves what she does more than anyone I know and you can tell the minute you meet her. She's so enthusiastic and excited about her work and it really shows. Holly is absolutely the most talented florist in the DC area and I would recommend her to anyone.
Where do I start with Holly. I began my love affair with her designs years ago while working at a local event in the Leesburg area. She had done wedding flowers for 2 of my best friends and finally it was my turn. Our first offical meeting was just to get some ideas together and give her the swatch colors of the girls dresses. She had compelte control of my flower design. I believed in her abilities as an artist to come up with something I knew I would love. My gut instinct was right. Holly Heider Chapple Flowers was by far the best investment in my wedding.
Holly Chapple and her staff are true artists! I LOVED all of the flowers for my wedding! My bouquet was sexy and elegant, just as I imagined! I really didn't know what type of flowers I wanted, but I knew the colors and Holly did a great job making my vision (or lack thereof) a reality! She is so talented and very sweet! She makes you feel like part of her family!
Holly does an amazing job and I would highly recommend her a floral designer and artist!
