Simply put: Ilonka and her team exceeded all of my expectations.
Ilonka was the very first wedding vendor I met with. I thought I had a clear idea of what I wanted in terms of flowers so when she warned me that I would change my mind a bunch... of times in the 10 months until my wedding, I thought she would be wrong. She wasn't. Over 3 in-person meetings and countless emails, I second guessed every selection I made. Throughout the entire process, Ilonka could not have been more kind, patient and accommodating. She was willing to work with me so I could get exactly what I wanted, offering ideas at a price I was comfortable with.
In the days leading up to my wedding, Ilonka was in constant contact with me. Given that my wedding was in March, we weren't sure we would be able to get all of the flowers I had requested. She notified me of any change, made sure all flowers met her expectations for high-quality, and even drove out of state to get the cherry blossoms I wanted. The day before my wedding, she had to let me know that the lily of the valley she had ordered for my bouquet had died. She scrambled to get my second choice flower, and even made two versions of my bouquet to be sure I was happy with it.
To me, flowers make the look and feel of an event. The day of the wedding, when I saw all of the arrangements that Ilonka had created, particularly the centerpieces, I was absolutely blown away. She made my day more beautiful than I ever could have imagined, and I cannot thank her enough!
