Iris & Barry Blooms was truly a standout choice for our wedding florist. Booking our vendors well in advance, we experienced a few shifts in our floral preferences along the way. Michelle was incredibly accommodating and handled each change with grace. The final result was exactly what we envisioned and more. Our wedding day was beautifully adorned, brimming with happiness, vibrance, and charm. We couldn't have been happier with our decision to choose Iris & Barry Blooms for our special day.
Michelle is truly an artist and master of her craft that I cannot recommend enough. She is a total sweetheart and was a pleasure to work with throughout the planning process. Wedding planning can be extremely stressful, but having Michelle on our team made everything much easier. She is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about being a florist and it shows in her work. She was very professional, attentive, responsive and understanding through out the process. I sent her my Pinterest for inspiration. I was a little indecisive about exactly what I was looking for, but she was able to help me navigate the confusion and give us exactly what we were looking for. We discussed our vision for the day and she sent over a mood board. I asked for some adjustments which she made. She took our ideas and transformed them beyond what I could have imagined. I gave her creative liberties to make adjustments based on her professional judgement. I was trying to be mindful of costs so she made recommendations for alternative flowers we could use that were in season or things we could simplify. Everything was absolutely stunning on our special day and the flowers really elevated the natural beauty of the outdoor venue. Everybody was so impressed by her work which received many compliments. She really went above and beyond and I am so glad that we used Iris & Barry Blooms for our wedding.

Michelle did such an amazing job with my flowers! She definitely took her time to understand my vision and worked with me and my planner to make it come true. I had so many compliments on all of my flowers and my guests and I were very very impressed!! I am definitely thankful and cannot be any happier!!! Definitely recommend her and would not choose anyone else!!
Michelle!! You truly outdid yourself! We had the FLORALS OF OUR DREAMS! I literally gasped at every single piece! Thank you so much for pouring all your love and hard work into our wedding florals! They are the dreamiest and we are so honored that you and Thor were a part of our special day! THANK YOU!! đź–¤
Michelle was recommended by my wedding planner, and I am very happy with my experience! My wedding planner did most of the coordinating with her and her team, and everything went perfectly. She made the deconstructed flower arch of my dreams come true! She also did a last minute flower pocket square for my husband instead of the original plan for a boutonniere. It was so cute. I am very happy with how everything turned out, and I received many compliments on our flowers for the day.
Please please please do not use these people. They will just take your money. They disappeared / ghosted without email or phone my son and daughter in law. After several phone calls and emails they reached out sent a refund check only to bounce. After that they deposited the bounced check in Zelle in 2 transactions. 1 declined and put my new family in an emotional hardship when it should have been the happiest moment of there life. Stories not over to be continued. Stay tuned.
My flowers were PERFECT! Michelle is so easy to work with and great at what she does. I wholeheartedly recommend using Iris & Barry Blooms
Michelle and her team went above and beyond our expectations!! We had to reschedule our wedding due to Covid and during that time, we also changed our vision of florals. I gave inspiration photos to Michelle and told her what colors I loved, as well as a few I would like to stay away from. With just a few ideas, Michelle and her team constructed florals that I can only describe as art.
I was completely floored the day of our wedding when I finally got to see everything in person. From the very start, Michelle made sure that we loved every aspect of our florals, from bouquets to center pieces. Communication was prompt and thorough, Even on the day of, she made sure that the vision was exactly what we wanted. She and her team executed the ceremony set up and seamlessly transitioned florals to where they needed to be. I would recommend her a hundred times again and will continue following her on social media just to see her beautiful creations!
Words can’t even begin to express how grateful I am for all of the hard work Michelle at Iris & Barry Blooms has done for my wedding. My wedding was no easy feat as it was two days long, two ceremonies, a Hindu and Christian ceremony, that were both incredibly intricate and detailed. I am a very particular person and was probably pretty high maintenance about my vision for both my ceremonies. The patience that Michelle had for me did not go unnoticed at any point. I had changed my mind about certain florals probably too many times prior to the wedding, and she was so wonderful about setting up video calls to rethink anything, hear my “new” vision, bounce ideas off of each other etc. She has the kindest, most relaxed and approachable energy, while making you feel heard, understood, and not crazy, which I feel like all of us brides feel from time to time during this process. Let me tell you, the florals throughout the entire weekend were absolute perfection. There was not one thing at all that I would change. There were times where I didn’t even really know my own vision, and she was able to capture everything I could have ever wanted after just a couple video calls, and a pinterest board.  She was able to create the most beautiful Mantap design, centerpieces, garlands, and a beyond STUNNING deconstructed arch for my Christian ceremony that held up to the most aggressive Tahoe winds! My bridal bouquet was PERFECTION, probably the most beautiful thing I had ever seen, I was almost in tears when she had brought it up to my suite. Michelle, thank you so much again, for your thoughtfulness, kindness, and patience especially when I was being a coo coo bride. You are a dream who made my wedding day unforgettable!

Michelle is an incredibly talented florist! Her pairings and easy-going nature were a true gift for our wedding. She was very flexible, especially on the morning of the wedding when we realized we didn’t have the same arrival time! (45 minutes off) She handled my mistake with grace and couldn’t have created more perfect arrangements. It was important to me to be able to repurpose florals from the ceremony to the reception and it seems her and her team specialize in this because it only took 10 minutes for them to all be fully repurposed! She was also able to create extensive and detailed mood boards until we settled on the perfect look. I could not have been happier with her work, her professionalism, and her artistic vision!
Michelle and her team were a dream to work with. We had a last minute change in venue and numbers and even though she had every right to cancel, she was instead so gracious and understanding. She remained so supportive throughout the entire process, was easily reached via email and phone calls, and exceeded our expectations with her beautiful floral designs. On the day of our wedding, she and her team were incredibly helpful and patient with the chaos of the day, and went above and beyond with delivering our dream floral arrangements that included a gift for our memorial table as my mother had recently passed away. Michelle and her team do everything with grace and kindness and they were honestly the nicest. Thank you for making my vision come to fruition, it was a dream! ❤️
I could not recommend Iris and Barry Blooms enough for your wedding. Michelle is the most amazing florist and individual. We didn't have a huge flower budget, but Michelle was able to work with us to build the most beautiful flower displays and stay within budget. Michelle is so talented and has a high attention to detail. In addition, Michelle is super responsive and answered any questions we had leading up to the big day. Definitely hire Iris and Barry Blooms for your big day... you will not be disappointed.
Iris & Barry Blooms delivered the best wedding floral experience from start to finish. I originally booked with Michelle pre-pandemic for my wedding that was later postponed I don't even know how many times. She was able to stay flexible through it all and was there when we finalized for April of 2022.
Not only was she able to stick with us through COVID, but she was also able to pinpoint exactly what I wanted as far as florals through my very vague explanations. My floral recipe was divine and I was in absolute love seeing them for the first time. Michelle is a true artist and has such an eye for design and composition. I am so happy I dedicated most of my budget to the florals and greenery. The flowers really made it feel like a wedding.
I feel that it is rare, but not only is Michelle a wonderful florist and business owner, but she is a wonderful person. Genuinely kind, empowering, and loves what she does. A thank you is simply not enough.
I highly recommend Iris & Barry Blooms to any newly engaged couples.
Iris & Barry Blooms work is pure perfection!
Let me just begin by saying, hiring Michelle to be your florist will be one of the easiest decisions of your wedding planning process. Michelle is so sweet, kind, patient, understanding, reliable, professional, and gifted. It's very clear that she genuinely cares about her brides and her work. From our initial phone call, I knew we found our florist. Michelle attentively listened to my vision, provided her expert advice, was receptive and respectful of my opinions, and took my floral vision to a whole other level. I love how transparent she is and how she creates the personalized mood boards so you can see your vision come to life before the wedding day. I don’t know how many ways I can express how talented she is and how beautiful her floral arrangements are. Even with the potential changes that had to be made due to the pandemic floral shortage, I knew that all I had to do was trust Michelle and her work because I knew she would deliver. And let me say, when she delivered my flowers on the wedding day, all I could do was hug her because I was that blown away. Just do yourself a favor and book with Michelle today. Trust me, you need Michelle as your florist. I will recommend Michelle again and again. Thank you Michelle for making my floral dreams come to life, better yet, for exceeding all my floral expectations!
Michelle was absolutely amazing through the entire process! She was so accommodating with the multiple changes I made, I had no idea what I wanted or how to articulate what I was looking for and I was absolutely blown away with how Michelle was able to take the little info I gave her and deliver exactly what I was looking for! Everyone at our wedding was commenting on how great the flowers were! She was honestly a dream to work with and I'm still obsessed with how everything turned out!
I literally can not say enough about how amazing Michelle is! She is the only florist that we looked at! From the very first email to the day of, Michelle was an absolute joy to work with! I sent the inquiry email and her floral mood board had me hooked! I did not need to look at any other florists for our big day and we had made our minds up that she was the person who we would go with!
From the changes, to the day of execution, just from an email description Michelle made the vision come to life! She is the most talented florist I know and you need to make her a priority! I am so happy that we were able to book her and have her do our flowers for our wedding! She is a magician and literally made the whole day amazing with how gorgeous her flowers are! She got these beautiful roses, I had never even heard of and it made the day so amazing! She puts her clients thoughts first and makes their vision come to life! I can't say enough about how good she is except book her NOW!
Iris & Barry Blooms was the very first vendor we locked in for our big day. I found Iris & Barry Blooms on Instagram and knew I liked Michelle's style from photos of other events, but was still nervous as we made our initial deposit because there's this lingering worry...like "what if this person doesn't deliver the way they present their work online." Turns out I didn't need to worry. When I started working with Michelle, I sent her photos of her past work I liked and some color direction in mind, but I wasn't super clear on my overall vision at all. Luckily, that didn't matter for Michelle, she worked with me to come up with a plan and was amazing every step of the way. She heard what I wanted and built upon it and then nailed the flower recipe on her first try! As I locked in other vendors and got my dress etc. Michelle welcomed finding out that info as it came and adjusted her plans accordingly to ensure the final look was all cohesive. We had Iris & Barry Blooms create a floral arch using their homemade copper arch that was a breathtaking addition to the ceremony. I had the most elegant, but still fun and colorful bouquet. She filled my childhood flower basket with flowers, and quickly adjusted on the spot, day-off when the basket was smaller than expected. Her team broke down and repurposed arrangements seamlessly. Michelle has excellent taste and it shines through in all of her designs. My wedding flowers were perfect and Iris & Barry Blooms delivered on every front: as professional vendors, florists, and just overall pleasant humans to work with on something as special as getting married. You should work with them and have one less thing to worry about when planning, knowing that they'll deliver as promised and then some.
The flowers were beautiful, and the experience of working with Michelle of Iris & Barry Blooms was wonderful. Would highly recommend.
My outdoor COVID Zoom wedding was Feb 7, 2021 with art deco gold accents. In addition to providing my bouquet and decorating an arch, Michelle decorated my tortoise's wagon (he was the ring bearer).
What I appreciated most about Michelle was her professionalism and methodical, clear process and communication. When we discussed and agreed on flowers, she provided photos of actual flowers and color tones, so there was no fumbling what we were going to get as a result of my not knowing floral lingo. At no point did I feel rushed nor a need for her to "spit it out." Like her, I'm a one-woman business and was super busy. It was a huge win and comfort to feel I could trust her because there was clarity on what I was getting - from discussion ideas and styles to making actual floral decisions, to shuttling the contract back and forth and firming up day-of logistics and final product. She delivered at every point (not so for all my other vendors). And she was very affordable considering the size of the pieces she assembled. I got so many compliments on the flowers. I'm very very grateful we worked with Michelle.
Michelle and her team were absolutely lovely to coordinate with leading up to the event and were very helpful and accommodating when it came to last minute changes. The bouquet she created for my wedding was more unique and beautiful that i could have imagined. The centerpiceces, and flowers for my chuppah was gorgeous, and the wedding guests have continued to complement on the stunning and unique arrangements. I would recommend Michelle, her team, and the group they contract with 3 Little Birds for any occasion. Thank you for making my wedding so special.
Iris & Barry Blooms is incredible!!! Michelle is so patient, flexible, and easy to work with. She was so quick to respond and answer all of our questions. She sent us so many photos for inspiration, she completely understood our vision, and executed it perfectly. Our flowers were beautiful and exceeded all expectations! Our floral arch and table centerpiece took our breath away! Michelle also made a flower headband that was beautiful and amazing! We have recommended Iris & Barry Blooms to our friends, and they are going with Michelle for their upcoming May wedding. We had a microwedding due to the pandemic. We plan on having another wedding celebration in the future, and absolutely will be going with Iris & Barry Blooms again!
Michelle is a dream to work with. From the very beginning, she understood my vision for my florals and they turned out so incredibly beautiful!! After sending an inquiry to Michelle, I received a mood board and plan for what my florals would look like, allowing me to see how the vision would come to life. Throughout the year leading up to my wedding, my florals changed so much due to all of the changes with COVID and downsizing my wedding, and Michelle was always right there to support me. She is the most thorough vendor you will work with, and she’s so patient and communicative, even checking in with me before the wedding to make sure I didn’t need anything else! She is incredibly talented and I completely trusted her with my wedding. My jaw dropped when I saw my bouquet! Could not recommend Iris & Barry Blooms enough.
Absolutely incredible! I was so skeptical about finding a wedding florist that would work with us during COVID while still making our vision come true. Michelle was so pleasant, worked quickly and efficiently and brought my total image to life! Don’t look any further!
Michelle made floral planning so easy for us, especially since we were planning our SoCal wedding from the East Coast. She responded quickly when I reached out for a quote and was able to offer me a more cost-effective option than what I found on Pinterest (loose greenery instead of garland). My bridesmaids' and my bouquets were unbelievably gorgeous; I still stare at them in the photos. She also was able to achieve the elegant, romantic look we were going for both on the table decor and the archway decor. I was really so please with Michelle's skill and service. I highly recommend her!
I can’t say enough nice things about Michelle. Her work for our small Covid wedding was absolutely beautiful. With limited guidance she was able to execute our vision flawlessly, creatively, and within budget. In addition, I emailed her a few days before in a panic asking if she could please bring a few additional flowers to decorate our cake and she was able to accommodate us without batting an eyelash. More than anything, though, Michelle is the consummate professional - she is communicative, prompt, and a great listener. She made wedding flowers a total set-it-and-forget-it breeze. Thank you for everything, Michelle!
Working with Michelle was absolutely amazing. She is the sweetest human on this earth. All of the arrangements and bouquets were absolutely gorgeous! She was so easy to work with and knowledgeable. I wanted soft romantic colors and she made my dream a reality. All the flowers were so fresh and beautiful. I can’t recommend her enough! Flowers are a statement at a wedding, choose iris & barry blooms if you want the best!
Michelle was a joy and pleasure to have worked with for my wedding. She was very professional, accommodating and considerate of my numerous requests and changes. In addition to being flexible, she was kind and understanding of my budget and tried her best to stick to it as much as she can (though it was really tough! lol). Her floral artistry was superb -- I loved her color scheme as it complimented very well on my color motif for my wedding. Her customer service is above and beyond as reflected on our calls and numerous message exchanges. Iris and Bloom is highly recommended for a stress-free, professional florist for your wedding. I can vouch for that! :)
Michelle at Iris & Barry Blooms is wonderful! We decided to have a tiny Covid-safe wedding in the midst of this pandemic and reached out a bit late but Michelle and her team were able to design the perfect floral arrangements for our backyard wedding. She listened to exactly what we were looking for and created something so perfectly "us." On the actual day, her team was on time and considerate and great at making unexpected last minute adjustments. We would absolutely recommend Iris & Barry Blooms!
I cannot say enough about Michelle and her amazing work and attention to detail. I had my small wedding (due to COVID) on August 28th and I have been working with Michelle over the last year. My wedding was postponed twice due to covid, and Michelle never hesitated in supporting me and working with me on our date change. This has been a difficult time for everyone, and it was amazing to see my own wedding florist not only work with me on the date changes, but actually check and see how I was doing, and if there was anything she could do to help. (amazing!) I gave Michelle my ideas for a boho style wedding and colors, and she sent me a vision board with how it would actually look on the wedding day, even down to the boutineers, flower crowns, and color of bridal party clothes! This is what truly gave me the vision for the day. On the day of the wedding, she came early to set up. The entire day was filled with my guests coming to me and saying how much they loved the wedding arch and floral ideas that Michelle put together. I even asked that a touch of blue be added to my wedding arch (my favorite color) and she added BLUE PAMPAS GRASS! She dyed them herself. I was just astounded at the small details I gave her and she made everything and more happen for me! Super professional, personable, and just amazing to work with! Thank you!
Working with Michelle was amazing. She heard our ideas and easily put everything together for us. The arrangements all looked beautiful and it really tied the whole thing together. She easily understood what we were going for with our look and feel, and accomplished that and even more! Absolutely amazing work!
Michelle & her team were incredible to work with! She created a beautiful floral arch, centerpieces and personal florals for an intimate Malibu wedding that really brought the wedding design to life! She was very professional and fun to work with, set up everything quickly and finished early & went beyond what she needed to in order to make the couples day even more special. As a wedding planner, I have worked with many florists and she is one I would love to work with again!
Michelle was a dream to work with, so flexible when our wedding shrank form 170 people to 18. She managed to create the most gorgeous arrangements that gave our "little-big day" an elegant and festive feel.
I found Michelle through Instagram and she's an absolute Angel! I first contacted her to purchase some dried everlasting arrangements to jazz up my room. I'm obsessed with boho styles and pampas grass and Michelle did not disappoint. The second time I contacted her was for my elopement. After a whirlwind year (yep I'm a #coronabride) my husband and I decided to elope in Malibu. Michelle was so accommodating and worked around our tight timeline. It was important for me to incorporate my Indian culture, and Michelle made these BEAUTIFUL garland necklaces for us. I gave her minimal direction and just asked that they had blush tones and Michelle completely delivered. My bouquet was just as gorgeous and her work speaks for itself. Additionally, she has such a kind soul, and was an absolute pleasure with work with, especially given everything that was going on. She's thoughtful, kind, empathetic and extremely talented. If you're looking for an amazing, very reasonably priced florist, Michelle is your gal!
I am so glad that I found Michelle from Iris & Barry to design the floral arrangements for our wedding. She offered different suggestions based on our budget and worked with us to make sure everything was exactly the way we envisioned it. I had wanted a specific look for our ceremony, and she had pillars custom made to make that happen - talk about going above and beyond! The bouquets for the wedding were gorgeous and everyone raved about the table arrangements. We even kept some of them for our brunch the next day and they still looked great! Her vision for our wedding was even better than we could have imagined and we are so grateful to her for making our day even more beautiful.
