Laura Clare, Floral Design & Event Decor

mmend Laura Clare for any event, you will not be disappointed!

s. Laura immediately understood my vision and was able to add her creative touches to make my wedding day more beautiful than I imagined it would be. I highly recommend her.

is so sweet, patient, and wonderful to work with!

unique and one of a kind. I loved working with Laura Clare and would use her again in a heartbeat!

ith and handles her business with grace and ease.

ade everything feel so special. Every single arrangement she created was absolutely stunning from the lantern and candle lined fire places to the garland runners on each of the tables. Laura and her team really delivered on everything they promised and it truly made the day stress free knowing we were in amazing hands !

cked up on exactly what I was looking. She was straightforward with the pricing and her work far exceeded my expectations while staying within my budget. I received many compliments from the wedding guests on how simple yet elegant the arrangements looked. Guests who had been to this venue before told me they had never seen it look so good. I highly recommend using Laura Clare for any floral arrangement needs.

ovative she and her team are, there was no one else I could have trusted to make my wedding dreams come true!!! Laura and her team decorated every inch of my wedding, from the amazing peony filled bouquets, to the garland at the church, to even making bride and groom floral flamingoes for the pool at our reception venue, and not a single piece was out of place. Thank you Laura for making my wedding so breathtakingly beautiful!

of her. She is a very warm and kind person, so that is a plus of working with her.

! My bouquet, 11 bridesmaids' bouquets, 10 boutonnieres and 2 wristlets were perfectly arranged and captured the holiday-wedding spirit. We had high and low centerpieces that guests were raving about (and taking!). Evergreens, reds, whites, maroons, with touches of silver and lanterns that were exactly what I had wanted. Laura even went above and beyond to create a wood structure with lights and organza that stood behind us during our ceremony and then later behind our sweetheart table. I gave her a brief idea of what I had been thinking, but she made it absolutely perfect. Laura was absolutely fantastic to work with and has such vision. I can not recommend her and her team highly enough!

rowns for my flowers girls to the sleek boutenneires for the groomsmen. I highly recommend Laura for your wedding.

nd orchids. I was 100% pleased with Laura Clare. I have not a single complaint. You can't go wrong with Laura Clare.

ing and our likes and dislikes. We spoke to several other florists and Laura was the most patient and reasonably priced. She cared about our budget and tried to find ways to help us save some money. We ordered bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, flowers for the cocktail hour tables, flowers down the aisle for the ceremony and a Chuppah. She was so understanding when we changed our minds a few times as it got closer to the wedding. We met with her again about a month before the wedding so that she could review with us everything we ordered and show us a mock up of the centerpieces. We had sent her a picture of something we liked and Laura made it so much more beautiful. Laura spent over two hours with us that day going through all of the details in preparation for the wedding. When we saw all of the flower arrangements and the Chuppah the day of the wedding, we were amazed. They were absolutely gorgeous, better than we ever imagined - she far surpassed our expectations and wishes. Our guests raved about the floral designs as well. We loved working with Laura and recommend her highly.

y and value. Laura exceeded all my expectations. Thank you for helping me have the most beautiful wedding ever!

Clare's flowers are fresh and smell amazing. She was a pleasure to work with and very easy going. I would recommend her for any event that needs to be beautified with fresh flowers. I would definitely work with her again on any special occasion. Thank you again Laura Clare for all your dedication and hard work. You are truly a blessing and living your passion! Hope to see you again in the future. Anthony and Tara

fabric and it was simply perfection!

aura is a true professional yet so kind and lovely to work with. She has great taste and helped make some beautiful suggestions to enhance the decor of our wedding. Thank you Laura for all your hard work - everything looked perfect!!!!!

lutely beautiful they were. I couldn’t stop staring at the flowers the whole night! Our guests were amazed and pointed out how they were absolutely perfect for our venue. Even the staff was amazed! We were so pleased with Laura Clare design from the moment we met with her. She is very knowledgeable, creative and accommodating. Even when we called her just a few weeks before our wedding with last minute changes she was very quick to respond and make the changes to our arrangements almost immediately. I would highly recommend Laura Clare!!!!

valley. The overall look was awesome!

my wedding that I found Laura Clare through one of my co-workers recommendation. I immediately reached out and set up a meeting in her Bernardsville shop. Laura was so warm and bubbly – she was such a breath of fresh air and truly such a pleasure to work with. She has such an enthusiasm and talent for floral design. I brought her many photos from Pinterest (probably too many!) for brainstorming floral ideas and every idea I had she topped with a better one! Her suggestions were great – she brought my vision to life. She even had great suggestions for décor elements like chairs and candles. She truly understood the vibe I was going for and made the entire planning process so seamless and most importantly, fun! Laura made our ceremony unforgettable. She delivered the most stunning flowers and decor I have ever seen – she truly succeeded above and beyond my expectations! She was even lovely at answering my many emails (often changing flowers or coming up with different ideas closer to our date) and made sure the flowers for the day were exactly what we had imagined. I highly recommend Laura Clare!

th away. I absolutely loved the centerpieces, classic winter bouquets, boutonnieres, and cake decorations that Laura created for our wedding. Laura understood my vision of creating an elegant and intimate wedding reception, and effectuated everything perfectly! I could not be happier that Laura was our florist, and highly recommend her!

ed beautiful work for me the day of the wedding. I changed my mind many times, and at times I did not think it would work; however, Laura took the time to sit down with me (for as long as it took) and figure out exactly how it COULD work. I had a very strict budget and was unable to budge. After switching my mind from baby's breath (she warned me they would smell in mass quantities) to flowering branches, it was extremely stressful because a new quote I was given was double my original price. A couple months before the wedding, I set up a meeting with her and she sat down with me and thought of a million different ways I could still get what I wanted. At that point, I let her expertise take over. When I tell you that my centerpieces were everything I wanted them to be, they were. They were MASSIVELY full white cherry blossoms with hanging candles. They were stunning and because it was the end of the cherry blossom season, she was able to get more than expected. She even sent me pictures of the shipments to keep me in the loop. Ultimately, I couldn't have been happier with Laura and the quality of her work. My husband, who was skeptical at the time due to the constant back and forth, was blown away, stating they were absolutely breathtaking.

ould look like. Laura came up with ideas & suggestions that complimented & enhanced my vision. She followed through flawlessly & "wowed" everyone in attendance. I found Laura to be very knowledgeable, professional, efficient, & lots of fun to work with. Her expertise shines through her creations. Can't wait for another event!!!

g her services again for our other 5 children!!

ion venue as well as create my bouquets. She was extremely flexible and patient throughout the entire process as my theme and ideas evolved. One last minute add that Laura knocked out of the park was our sweetheart table which she calls - table flambe! It's an installation of candles and flowers that go over your table. People are still raving about it. Laura and team were also great when it came to setting up decorations I already had - she also transferred decorations from the church to the venue. I also loved what she did with the bouquets - very pretty and complimented my overall bridal look. Laura has an incredible eye for making your wedding unique, memorable and elegant. Our big day wouldn't have been possible without her vision and the hardwork of her dedicated team.

and joining up Laura Clare floral design&event decor made me realize what a wonderful relationship will have throughout the years with all of my up-and-coming events. Laura and her group are professional and punctual with their work . I plan my wedding myself something small only 30 people running around with so many little details it was a true comfort to release some of the pressure to Laura and she turned around and made my wedding day or I should say our wedding day a beautiful event .

uggestions, preferences and willingness to make changes even on the day of the occasion. Her passion, her enthusiasm comes across in her work. Above all her sincere pleasant personality is fun to work with. Laura has an excellent team , they were available all through the journey to take questions and get answers even when Laura was away on other weddings. Laura delivered in our two weddings what she promised us. Thank you Laura !!!!

g that I had not made arrangements to pickup the bouquets before the ceremony so she awesomely had them delivered to my house the morning of the wedding for no additional charge. That was one less thing I had to coordinate on an already busy day. Gestures like that from a vendor mean so much to a bride who is already trying to balance a million things to happen on a single day.

tunned by the bouquet. It was gorgeous. My centerpieces were pullaway favors and everyone loved them. I would recommend Laura to any bride ! She is an absolute pleasure to work with, her prices are very fair and the and result is gorgeous!

venue, I most likely would have hired someone else just because I felt from a customer service standpoint, improvements are needed. While Laura was really great in willing to work with me that I was not the bride who was going to spend thousands of dollars on flowers & let me purchase my own containers, vases, etc. to save on cost, it took a while for me to get a proposal, which wasn't quite right and it took several times to get it right at which I still didn't feel quite satisfied but I had to trust it would work out. On the day of my wedding, I had an extra boutonniere (which i am not sure if I paid for that) and my flower girl flowers couldn't be found by my venue so I am not sure if they got delivered. While my bridal bouquet was beautiful, it was disappointing for the amount it cost. At the end of the day, my flowers were beautiful, I think the earthy feeling I was going for was captured, but it was expensive for what I actually received and as a customer, I just needed to "feel the love" more.

ngs, which we really appreciated! We also rented an adorable settee from her for our sweetheart table that was really beautiful! She was also very easy to work with!

r guests could not stop talking about how gorgeous the flowers were. Laura embraced our vision and was a joy to work with. We highly recommend Laura Clare and would definitely use her in the future!

ut also was willing to hear all of my ideas and answer every possible question I had. She was also willing to work with us to make our floral dreams a reality within our budget, and the finished product went beyond my expectations of what I thought we could have. She captured my vision so flawlessly. When I saw my bouquet it was as if she had gone into my brain to get the image I had of what I wanted - it was truly amazing. I cannot recommend Laura highly enough. Her designs are truly unique and special, and she's a dream to work with!

a black-tie wedding. Then we found Laura Clare who totally understood what we wanted and was able to bring our vision to life beautifully. And Laura is great to work with too.

nded and walked us through each component to make sure we weren't missing anything. The mock-ups we saw a few weeks before the wedding were stunning and the day-of execution was flawless. Their floral designs truly made our wedding come to life and I would recommend Laura Clare to any bride in the NJ area.

together on the proposal with changes so that it fit my budget. Laura does a mock-up for you a few weeks before your wedding which I really appreciate as I knew then I had even more confidence in her. She & her team delivered decor for our wedding. My now husband even raved about the flowers - which is something he cared nothing about! Absolutely work with Laura!

ofessional and was diligent into ensuring that she understood our vision. She went above and beyond on our wedding day. The floral arrangements were gorgeous. From the ceremony, the chuppah, the aisle, the cocktail hour and of course the centerpieces were incredible. She nailed it and I would use her again in a heartbeat! Thank you Laura!

arge wedding parties. You can see that she has a "spark" for what she does, not just the traditional arrangements, with the same old flowers. While being enthusiastic, creative and artistic, she is also well organized, budget conscious, and detail oriented. If you are interested in something different, she has a lot of suggestions that you can use or not... I appreciated hearing about all the options, within my budget! I was open to having some non traditional (?) touches, so Laura incorporated dried leaves in vibrant fall colors in the cocktail hour arrangements, purple kale and berries in the centerpieces, and white kale "roses" in the bouquet. I still can't believe how many pictures of the table arrangements were posted on facebook the next day! Everyone was raving about all of the flowers. If you are thinking of checking out Laura Clare for your wedding or event, I would encourage you to do so! You won't regret it, I know I didn't!

angements in ivory and pink shades to bring my plan to life. She did absolutely amazing job. My bouquet was just beautiful. Laura used a few kinds of roses, hydrangea, dahlias. My mom, who I always considered as a person with a great taste but at the same time very difficult to impress with anything, was thrilled when she saw the flowers Laura made for me. Laura is a very easy, friendly, calm ( I believe very important quality in this stressful time) person to work with. She is open to listen to your ideas and ready to make your dreams come true. She also stayed on budget which was very important for me. If you are looking for somebody to create something beautiful for reasonable money, you found the right person in Laura.

ngness to take the time to really listen and bounce ideas around, as well as her experienced creative input. It was a very nice feeling to not be worried about the flowers on the day of - I felt confident they would be beautiful, and they were! Thank you!

ng my husband and I were going for. We wanted "happy, bright, and colorful". The bouquets were all unique and complemented the bridesmaids dresses perfectly. When we saw the reception centerpieces they took my breath away - so lush, bright, and gorgeous. I felt that Laura was able to provide exactly what we wanted within our budget. She also made adorable moss covered table numbers which added a unique touch. I highly recommend her service.

saw Laura Clare's arrangements I couldn't be happier. Everything was lush, and full, and perfect! She understood the concept completely and brought it all to life. She was ALWAYS excited and friendly, which goes a long way when meeting with vendors while wedding planning. It kept me excited and when I saw it come together on the day of , I was astonished at what her and her team accomplished. I have been to weddings where the flowers don't make it through the night or the arrangements look sparse - not the case with Laura Clare. Everything was elegantly presented and looked bright and full throughout the event. Not enough can be said about Laura's "CAN DO" attitude and how KNOWLEDGEABLE she is, her eye is unequivocal and she really brings her style to every event. Her hardwork really paid off and we received a ton of compliments on everything!

and made adjustments and tweaks to the décor plan to ensure that everything was executed perfectly. She is a true professional and really cares about her clients.

d beyond to satisfy our wedding vision. She worked within our budget, and she produced the most beautiful centerpieces we had ever seen. Even though we had been planning our wedding for over two years, three months prior to our wedding date, our venue closed. We scrambled to find a new space, and once we did, we had to revision all of the floral work to match the new venue. Laura helped us every step of the way. She really went above and beyond to make our day special and create floral pieces to remember. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I definitely recommend her to anyone and everyone.

would look like multiple times. She even offered ideas that we were really excited about, for example: each bridesmaid would have a bouquet of unique flowers and my bouquet would be a mixture of all of theirs to represent that each one of them was a part of me. I thought that was really sweet. We also discussed the boutonnières for the boys being a starfish with a little bit of greenery behind it. We were feeling really comfortable and confident with Laura and thought she'd be the last vendor we'd have to worry about. A week before the wedding, I found out that Laura herself wouldn't be coming to set up, which I was surprised about because the entire time during the planning process, there was no discussion of this. Having someone help her, yes; her not being there at all, no. I was a little frustrated with this because I never spoke with anyone except Laura and I thought that there would be details lost in translation. As frustrated as I was though, I didn't worry because I was confident in the conversations that we had throughout the entire planning process. Because of this confidence, I didn't let her know that I was disappointed... maybe a mistake on my part, but again, plenty of planning and discussion had happened. I'm not sure what happened between our conversations and the creation of our order, but all the girls' bouquets except the maid of honor's were the same, none entirely a unique flower. And the boutonnières were green leaves with starfish clearly just hot glue gunned on them. Needless to say, when the flowers arrived at the location I was speechless. I asked the individual who was making the delivery for the petals for the flower girl basket and she said she left them at the reception venue for me.... I'm sorry, where does that make sense? She did pick them up and bring them to us as requested, but that was the cherry on top for me. The alter pieces at the ceremony were beautiful and more than we imagined, and those we were very pleased with. The floral arrangements on our reception tables were beautiful as well, not exactly what we discussed, but still beautiful. None of the flowers we received were dying or wilted, they were absolutely beautiful, but it just wasn't our vision. Our vision was clearly presented and discussed and we thought it was understood. I reminded myself that the flowers weren't the most important part of the day and the day of, it didn't bother me. After the fact, however, I may have chosen a different florist if I had read of an experience like mine though.

t to work on because you never know exactly how everything is going to come out until the day of the event. So, it's important to trust your floral designer and feel he/she understands your vision. When we met with Sam to review a sample arrangement, it was clear she understood us. The arrangement was almost perfect and needed so few tweaks. We also thought their prices were very fair and liked the idea that they had so much experience working with our venue (Maritime Parc). Everything turned out perfectly on the day of the wedding. I would definitely recommend them.

mmend them a million times over and looking forward to the next event I can utilize their work for!

ballroom- it was magical. My bouquet was a thing of beauty. The ceremony altar... just breathtaking. Absolutely positively use Laura Clare Floral!!

h arrangements of fringe tulips, hydrangea and pods in white birch containers. Not only did she win over my picky groom but she wowed all of our guests!! Amazing flowers and service, would highly recommend!

on an OLD proposal. This means that many of the flowers (groom's butioneere, father of the bride's butioneere, groom's mother's flowers, flowers at the reception table, etc) for my wedding were INCORRECT! I only found out that many flowers were wrong after she had already dropped them off at the venue. There was nothing I could do at that point. It was so disappointing as I truly felt Laura was a wonderful creative person who was organized. Not so! Also, the actual flowers she provided were not quality flowers (i.e. the flowers on the end of the aisles at our ceremony were small, wilted, and pathetic looking before the ceremony even started!). Keep in mind this ceremony was not in the heat...so I'm not sure why they were so wilted. I almost took them down and threw them away they looked so bad! Laura also takes her time in responding to you. I'd often have to send a second email before I got a response. Not great when you're trying to plan a wedding and are spending over $3000 in flowers. My advice: stay away!! You can get nicer floral arrangements at a better price elsewhere!

rrangements. She helped me make sense of my million pinterest pins for the wedding and at the end of our meeting, I could see my vision completely and knew Laura was the person to bring this all to life. From the simple beauty of the men’s corsages, to the exquisite bridal bouquet using my grandmother’s handkerchief and antique hat pins, to the beautiful table centerpieces, she did a fantastic job and really brought all our ideas for color and décor together cohesively.

very accommodating with our requests and listened to our ideas. Her knowledge in floral design was breath of fresh air, I didn’t need to stress or worry if the arrangements would be what we imagined. We had an early October wedding and Laura Clare set a romantic and sophisticated atmosphere to evoke the glamour of early 20th century “Gatsby Era” utilizing pink, creamy whites, champagne, and blush with a pops of plum and orange to bring in the fall season. Lush garden roses, hydrangeas, dahlias, orchids, Picasso calla lilies, and the sweetly scented gardenias were used to achieve the desired look. Candlelight was also added to the romance of the day. I actually hired Laura Clare for my Bridal shower as well. She created gorgeous summer inspired arrangements that were set in birdcages as the centerpieces. I actually had guests fighting over who would take one home! I thanked Laura Clare over and over for making our wedding day absolutely gorgeous. I couldn’t have been more pleased with the final results.

ave been more lovely, helpful and accommodating! In one meeting, she was able to take our limited knowledge of flowers, wedding decor and colors we liked and recommend an entire plan for both our ceremony and reception. Laura was always helpful and calm even as we tweaked the plan over the next couple weeks. Even though we knew how beautiful her work was beforehand, we were still amazed at how stunning everything was on that day; her elegant and chic yet organic creations perfectly set the tone for our wedding! We could not recommend a better partner to work with for such an integral part of any wedding!

ess so easy and her passion for floral design shows in her work. She did an absolutely amazing job with the flowers at my wedding. I HIGHLY recommend her!

or I used for my wedding.

early translate vision into reality. The proof is in the pudding and our wedding was PERFECT. From the entrance ways to the chuppah, every room was crafted to form a cohesive aesthetic. Laura managed to take every thought, sample photo, and magazine cutout that I threw her way and turn it into a masterfully crafted wedding day look-and-feel that exceeded expectations. Hire Laura, and have at least one thing you absolutely won't ever stress about.

ere amazing. They were willing to work within my budget which I appreciated.

d have imagined, her floral and decor design literally brought me to tears. Laura and her team were incredibly easy to work with, had wonderful suggestions, were focused on making sure they understood my vision and the quality of their flowers were amazing. Our guests commented on how beautifully the dining room was decorated and how gorgeous our bouquets and floral arrangements were. I can't thank Laura enough for making a joyous day even more beautiful.

quet was out of this world!!! I cannot say enough good things about them!!! Highly recommended!

of the absolutely amazing bridesmaids bouquet and my bouquet. I asked Laura Clare to make everything a surprise and she went above and beyond my expectations. I keep looking at the pictures of our flowers from our special day. Laura Clare was extremely easy to work with and communicate with on a frequent basis. If you want your flowers and event decor done right,Laura Clare is the right person for the job.
