Leaf + Petal NOLA

Margaret, Olivia, and the L+P team are a DREAM. Their florals were absolutely stunning on the day of our wedding, and everything was so perfectly coordinated and well done. They brought our rentals vision to life as well with candles, vases, and votives, and it was impeccable. Thank you thank you thank you to this team -- it made all the difference!! x

Margaret and Olivia were really great to work with and the best communicators out of any flower vendor I connected with. I was on a time crunch to find a vendor after my initial vendor fell through, and I feel so lucky that we landed with Margaret! She was incredibly punctual and professional, going back and forth with me to ensure that we made the most of our budget but also ensuring to execute the vision. She was always flexible/adaptable and even though I asked a million questions, she never hesitated to respond on time or follow up. I loved that she sent me a sample of what the flowers looked like the day before my wedding, it got me so excited to see them the day of! If you have the budget for it, you won't be disappointed in Leaf & Petal's delivery. I loved my flowers so much that I got my bouquet preserved so I never forget them!!

Ever since finding Margarets work on instagram I was instantly obsessed. She went above and beyond and made my venue look like a fairytale. It was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. When ever I show people pictures they gasp. She has the most impressive techniques and she is extremely fast and efficient. Communication during planning was amazing, she was one of the nicest people to work with! I wouldn’t change a thing.

Flowers were one of the most important details to me. I had followed Leaf+Petal for a while on Instagram and really admired Margaret's work so she was on the top of my list for wedding vendors. She was luckily available as she books up well in advance! While Leaf+Petal is on the higher price end, I had a certain vision and knew I could trust Margaret and her team to deliver exactly what I wanted because she's just so dang talented. She did not disappoint! The floral style and color was spot on with what I had envisioned. We received so many compliments on the floral columns from our ceremony as well as the floral "swag" on our welcome sign and both made for great backgrounds in photos at the reception for guests. On top of her floral work being absolutely beautiful and creative, Margaret and her assistant were always quick to answer any of my questions via email and were clear communicators. Highly recommend Leaf+Petal!

Leaf + Petal did an amazing job on our personals. My bouquet and bridesmaids' bouquets were stunning and exactly what I had hoped for, and the bouts and other personals were lovely. She also made me a simple, small flower crown that was delicate and perfect. I didn't want to take it off! Margaret was also incredibly helpful and understanding with all the date changes and other tweaks, and was great to work with. I highly recommend L+P!

Leaf + Petal was both amazing to work with but also delivered the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen. I have received so many compliments on their work. Margaret completely got my vision and new exactly what I was looking for- she did perfectly unfolding what I was looking for without truly knowing what it would look like. I am so impressed with the communication and hard work that was put into making our day absolutely beautiful. Thank you for everything Margaret, you are a true gem! Please don't hesitate to hire Leaf + Petal for all of your floral needs!

The most beautiful flowers I’ve ever seen! Margaret did a beautiful job, and I couldn’t have been happier with my bouquets and all of the flowers at our wedding. Truly gorgeous. I was looking forward to seeing our flowers for months, and they did not disappoint. I am even getting my bridal bouquet preserved I loved it so much! Highly recommend Leaf + Petal!

Margaret was amazing to work with. Her floral artwork went with the exact aesthetic we wanted for our rustic glam wedding. She went above and beyond to deliver florals and greenery for our wedding. I still remember showing her a picture of a cross with flowers as the vision for my wedding. She said, “Oh I can do that better”. And Margaret really did execute everything so perfectly! I was blown away with the wedding aesthetic and it was largely because of her. Leaf + Petal is the perfect floral company to execute your wedding or event, taking into account your personal preferences.

I just had a large New Orleans wedding this past weekend. As a Bride that LOVES flowers, I did a lot of research before choosing a florist. One of the selling points for Leaf and Petal was their awesome communication. With each one of my questions (and there were a lot) Margaret answered quickly and made me feel very comfortable. Upon first meeting her, I felt so comfortable with my decision. She gives so many options to brides and is very informative through the selection process. She creates masterpieces for a wide variety of styles and works great with other vendors. She exceeded all of my expectations!

Margaret is a great person to work with. From the beginning, she was replying to my email inquiries and making sure responses were being given in a timely manner. We did most of our decision making via email since this was a destination wedding for us. And when we finally got a chance to meet in person, I had to re-schedule my meeting time last minute, and she was so understanding and accommodating. She new the vision that I wanted, made her suggestions, made sure any other vendors that she had took work with were communicated exactly what we had discussed. And above anything else, all my flowers both for the wedding ceremony and reception were beautiful. I would highly recommend using this vendor, especially if your from out of town and need a florist who knows how to run their business and design at the same time.

I hired Leaf + Petal for my wedding and they were absolutely amazing!! I got so many compliments on the floral displays. I would recommend them to anyone!!

My daughter found Leaf+Petal for her wedding in New Orleans after reading reviews and pouring over photos. Margaret designs the most extraordinary bouquets and floral arrangements, and I was beyond thrilled with her work. She is professional, very friendly, and worked with our budget. Her arrangements are gorgeous! The bridal bouquet was made with peonies, ranunculus, roses, and other floral buds. She made a large floral arch for the ceremony as well as arrangements for the guests' chairs at The Cabildo, and it literally transformed the place into an outdoor garden. The table arrangements at Marché were stunning and styled similarly to the bouquets for a seamless look from ceremony to reception! Margaret at Leaf+Petal was a perfect choice for us!

The flowers for the wedding were beyond PERFECT! Margaret did such a great job. I had seen her work and fell in love with everything she had on Instagram, so I gave her few details and she hit the nail on the head! She even made the most precious little collar of greenery for our cocker spaniel (he was in the wedding). Cannot rave enough about how beautiful the bouquets and boutonnieres were

Margaret and the rest of the Leaf and Petal team were so wonderful to work with throughout the process of planning florals for our wedding. Margaret met with us on several different occasions to help us plan and she was so thoughtful and understanding of my vision. She sent me "sneak peak" pictures of my bouquet the day before the wedding and I was floored at how perfectly it matched what I had imagined in my mind. The reception florals were stunning and we have received so many compliments from wedding guests about the florals. Thank you so much Margaret!!!!!! We loved everything about working with Leaf and Petal.

Margaret was a joy to work with! Looking through her work on Instagram, I instantly knew I wanted her to do the florals for my wedding day. She understood my vision and made it come to life. She was so easy to work with, making last minute changes and even working with my mother in law for rehearsal dinner flowers that were used again at the wedding! She had wonderful suggestions that I never would have thought of, but made perfect sense for our venue and set up. I highly recommend Margaret at Leaf and Petal for your wedding or ANY event that you may need florals!

Margaret has a unique way of understanding a vision and can easily transform it into reality. She transformed The Chicory into exactly what I had in mind with a combination of flowers, vines, cafe lights, and a variety of decorative candles. She and her team were easy to work with, easily accommodated our changes, and made time to do a final walk-through the week of the wedding to ensure that we had exactly what we wanted, and again, accommodated our change requests. Leaf + Petal did an amazing job and I highly recommend them.

I wish there were ten stars so I could double it!! Leaf and Petal was beyond amazing from the start! I had a Pinterest board and absolutely no idea where to start ... I basically know the names of three flowers total and they knew exactly how to guide me to what I didn’t even know I wanted! This was honestly the least stressful part of my wedding and I can’t recommend her enough!

Margaret’s work is amazing. I must admit that flowers were not one of my priorities while I was planning my wedding but my flowers ending up being one of my favorite things about my wedding. They were absolutely stunning. She did an amazing job taking my generic explanations of what I wanted (I have a severe lack of knowledge when it comes to all things floral) and turned it into something better than I ever could have imagined. She does amazing work and I highly suggest working with Leaf+Petal if you get the chance.

Margaret was the best! The flowers were exactly what I was hoping they'd be, which was amazing since I think I explained what I wanted in the vaguest terms possible. We got married the Saturday after Mardi Gras and even with the whole city shut down, she sent a shot of the bouquet on Ash Wednesday to make sure I didn't have any changes. Every bouquet and boutonniere was perfect, I cannot recommend her enough!

Margaret at Leaf + Petal is absolutely amazing!! I am so happy that I decided to book Leaf + Petal for our wedding venue. Margaret was very thorough with her questionnaire of our vision for wedding, and I am so grateful for that. She was able to execute everything that we had envisioned and more! She was even able to add touches of succulents to all arrangements to fill my succulent obsession without causing them to be out of place. We decided on a blush tone color pallet, and Margaret chose the prettiest flowers to complement our dream. I received so many compliments on how beautiful our flower arrangements were at our wedding. We even saved all of our flowers and greenery after the wedding, and they dried so nicely that we have them as decorations around our house. Margaret creates the most beautiful flower arrangements, and I highly suggest that you book Leaf + Petal for your wedding!

I cannot recommend Margaret highly enough. Of course the flowers were beautiful, but she was also just a dream to work with. We didn't have a huge floral budget but she never made us feel any less important than larger clients. And she was so patient with me as I went back and forth on a couple details! Due to our own last-minute scheduling changes, we had a friend set up our flowers at the church, but when she ran into trouble, Margaret immediately sent someone over to help. She clearly values both quality and customer service.

I can't say enough about Leaf + Petal, I wish I could give them 100 stars! I was probably the most unorganized bride in history but every single time I added a new item, they were so sweet and accommodating. And my bouquet!!! My GOODNESS, it completely captured my vision. I couldn't have imagined anything more beautiful. And can I just say, my wedding was 4 days ago and it STILL looks stunning! There is absolutely no one else I would recommend. THANK YOU!

Everything about L+P is wedding goals! Margaret is a dream to work with and if you've seen any of her photos, you know that everything she does is STUNNING! I remember telling her on the day of the wedding just to go with whatever she wanted to do because I knew I could trust her and literally the woman could never do anything that wouldn't look amazing. We had to make some modifications to the decor due to rain and tents, and Margaret stepped in and put greenery all throughout our tents to keep it looking cohesive and romantic. Super responsive and easy to get in touch with!

It was so great to work with Margaret and she really brought my floral visions to life! She helped transform our ceremony/reception space beautifully and even added greenery to our altar area (which was such a great surprise as I walked the down aisle). Everything was just how I had imagined it and my gorgeous bouquet is still going strong!

Oh Margaret and her gifts! Living 5 hours away from the city in which we were getting married required vendors that we could communicate with via email/social media. Margaret was responsive, understanding, and heard our ideas and ran with them! She did my bouquet for my bridal portraits and all of our flowers for our wedding day. Having to tweak and change things along the way, she was more than reasonable and worked with us the entire way. We couldn't have been more in love with how everything turned out!

Margaret and her team were AMAZING! Each time I emailed her she responded quickly and was always willing to speak on the phone. Each time I had a concern Margaret addressed it and came up with a solution that stayed us within our budget. Further, I really let Margaret take control of what the flowers would look like aside from the colors I wanted. My MOH thought I was crazy for not showing her exact pictures, but she brought us flowers that were beyond anything I could imagine. EVERYONE complimented them, even the photographer said they were her favorite flowers in a long time! 100% would recommend!!

My husband and I got married at the Audubon Clubhouse and it is no exaggeration when I say that the best decision I made during wedding planning was choosing Leaf + Petal as our florist. Margaret is exceedingly easy to communicate with (very fast email responses), passionate about her work, and turned our venue and outdoor ceremony into magic. She's also very accommodating and delivered my hair florals and bouquet/wedding party florals to my hotel the day of the ceremony. Clear communication can be difficult to find, but Margaret has it in spades and also works very well under pressure, as I've come to understand. For our wedding ceremony outside beneath the oak trees at the venue, I had requested a floral arch. It was cast iron and had been carefully weighted with stones, but the weather was so awful, a very strong wind blew it over, effectively crushing the flowers affixed to it. My husband was outside and witnessed the whole thing. He said Margaret quickly sprang into action and within minutes, had flowers replaced and the arch staked into the ground so securely that it wouldn't budge even when she gave it a hefty shove to test it. Everything was arranged so beautifully, I didn't know about any of this until my husband told me the next day. The arch was flawless and if we hadn't decided to get married in the middle of a rainstorm, I'm sure there wouldn't have been any setbacks at all, but Margaret responded beautifully to the challenge and exceeded our expectations in her masterpieces outside and inside the venue. My primary tip concerning Leaf + Petal is to book early to make sure you don't have to pick a different vendor (these guys are amazing) and order the candle package. The extra glow is phenomenal.

Amazing! The flowers were consistently beautiful. The first wedding was early summer with vibrant colors. The second an autumn wedding with more subtle colorsnm Margaret did BOTH weddings because her work is excellent and she is a delight to work with. i did hire her twice.....and absolutely would do it again for my third daughter.

Margaret is such a joy to work with! I found Leaf + Petal through the knot and started following her social media (warning: all of her arrangements/flower walls/decor are so gorgeous it will make you WANT to blow your flower budget) and I could not have been more impressed with her level of care and service. She stuck to my budget and helped me make decisions along the way that would keep costs down without sacrificing any details. We loved her so much my mother-in-law asked her to help with the rehearsal dinner too - which was a perfect teaser for the big day!

Margaret put together such beautiful arrangements for our natural-toned wedding. I didn't know exactly what I wanted, just something simple and classic. She got me talking to try to get to understand what I liked and what I was trying to achieve. Her team even spray-painted buckets copper to fill over-the-brim with baby's breath, a simple touch for our outdoor patio ceremony aisle. I didn't have much, but what she did made me wish we would've done more. Thank you Margaret for everything. It was all better than I could've imagined.

Flowers were just gorgeous. Margaret really helped us out when the bouquet for the bridal portraits froze in the hotel fridge! She is straightforward and everyone is on the same page. She is practical about what flowers are available. I guess the best thing I can say...is we hired her to the next daughter’s wedding

We got married in the French Quarter in NOLA 3 weeks ago, and hiring Leaf + Petal was one of the best decisions that we made in the entire wedding planning process. As other reviews have said, Margaret is a total artist and professional - she knew our venues (Hermann-Grima and Broussard's) well and covered every detail in our first meeting, showing me lots of references to make sure she clearly understood my vision (and budget!) and even suggested ways to make it even better (as I'm not a big "flower person"). In the days before our wedding, she sent me photos of my bouquet and patiently addressed my (multiple rounds) of feedback based on my vision, what was in season and what she knew would look good. When the bouquets arrived on the day of, they looked SPECTACULAR. My bridesmaids couldn't get over how breathtaking the flowers were and how much they looked like all of the "inspo" photos that I had showed them over the prior months. I also had Margaret create a flower comb for my hair, which I absolutely adored (and matched my groom's boutonniere so well). I think it was my favorite part of my whole outfit! Margaret also put together an absolutely breathtaking chuppah for our ceremony, incorporating my late grandfather's tallis and more gorgeous flowers and greens. She also did an amazing job working with our budget to repurpose ceremony flowers around the reception venue and use candles/greens/terrariums to make the space feel warm, romantic and just a bit ethereal. Just perfect - we couldn't have asked for anything better!!

It is no exaggeration to say the gorgeous florals arranged by Leaf + Petal NOLA made the wedding. Margaret is an artist and a professional, and she transformed our intimate garden wedding into an elegant, exclusive affair I hadn't imagined possible! She worked with me for months on my (changing...!) vision, exploring options within my budget and meeting my big requests wherever possible. When our bouquets were delivered (prompt and without hassle) I actually cried--she had somehow read my mind! Do not hesitate to book Leaf + Petal NOLA, it was absolutely the best decision we made!

We couldn't have been happier to work with Margaret! After just one meeting with her we felt totally confident that she understood our vision. She had great suggestions for efficiently using our budget and working with our other vendors. When I received photos of the bouquets the day before the wedding I was so happy that I cried. All of the florals were beautiful and beyond what I had imagined! Thank you Margaret and the Leaf + Petal team for all of your hard work!

I strongly feel that Leaf + Petal Nola's photographs speak for themselves! Margaret was amazing with assisting me in planning the bouquets for my destination wedding. They came out beautifully and I was truly honored to be able to work with her! Additionally, I was able to rent lanterns from their sister company House of Modern Vintage, which looked amazing during our evening outdoor ceremony and reception! I very highly recommend Leaf + Petal NOLA to all future brides!!!!

I love my wedding bouquet! The colour and flower choices were spot on and I couldn't have pick them better myself. Margret was super easy to work with! She coordinated with all my vendors to have the ceremony site and the restaurant beautifully setup. The greens around the chandelier was so whimsical! All the flower arrangement were so beautiful, the design were out of magazine! I wish we could've take them home to New York with us!!

I could not stop staring at how beautiful the florals were for my wedding. Margaret is so gifted at what she does and so great to work with. After she arranged my bouquet, she sent me a message with a picture of it and asked if there was anything I wanted to be changed on it, which I thought was just so thoughtful. Again, so, so beautiful. Thank you so much!

Our flowers and decor were absolute perfection. They delivered exactly what I wanted and more!!! Their flowers were impeccable and really set the mood for the whole wedding. With little direction given they nailed the whole arrangement. I would HIGHLY recommend them for any event. And their flowers lasted for a really long time. Absolutely gorgeous and perfection

Margaret is fab-u-lous! My flowers were GORGEOUS, and she perfectly executed my vision! I was so happy to work with an energetic and creative person. If you want some amazing romance and not-your-grandmother's florals, go with L+P! I was nervous about getting flowers organized because one vendor made me feel silly for not knowing every type of flower or exactly what I needed from a year out of the event, and like I was just a small pawn in a mess of all of their other jobs. BUT then I found Leaf + Petal and she was super responsive, met with me and patiently listened to some ideas and talked about what would work or not. She took a few conversations and my pinterest boards and really turned out beautiful, natural, full arrangements that I daydream about. It's wonderful to walk up to your wedding and see what her team has done! THANK YOU!!!!

Leaf + Petal went above and beyond my floral dreams. I wanted all white flowers with lots of greenery for my non traditional church venue, and they executed it beautifully! Margaret was fantastic to work with, and her team was so sweet the day of. Thank you so much for helping make that day so special!

I had such a particular look in mind when thinking about my bouquet, and it was like Margaret plucked it out of my head and put it right in my hands. I only got my bridal bouquet here (I did the rest of the flowers myself), and I was worried I would be overlooked a little since I wasn't a big customer - but those worries were totally unfounded. Margaret is incredibly sweet and delivered by bouquet to me on my wedding day right on time and more beautiful than I could have imagined. It matched our venue (Felicity Church) and my dress perfectly. So glad I went with Leaf + Petal! Thank you again!!

Book Leaf and Petal yesterday!! Margaret is the sweetest and she is so organized and helpful. I knew nothing about flowers, and they were actually kind of a “ok I know I need to get this done” thing, but she made me care about them, and I was so blown away by how beautiful her creations for my wedding were. She even accommodated a mother in law request a week before the wedding, adding 5 additional arrangements! I booked Margaret 18 months in advance, but not a single detail was looked over or forgotten. I am so, so happy I found her!

There are no words to describe how much joy my bridal bouquet brought me on the day of our wedding. It was the most gorgeous bouquet I have ever laid eyes on. Margaret did the most incredible job of infusing my personality into the bouquet right down to the choice of greenery and the magical touch of jasmine, rosemary and bay leaves. My husband even said that of the entire blur that was our wedding weekend the beauty of my bouquet stands out so vividly to him while we were saying our vows. On top of all that Margaret was a genuine pleasure to work with. I can not recommend Leaf and Petal strongly enough!!!

I can't say enough positive remarks about Margaret and her business. We are so glad we went with her unique, natural style of florals. She is so kind, down to earth, and fun to be around! She met with us and listened to our ideas, and then channeled those into her work. And, we had a really cool honeycomb structure that we used as a backdrop on our "altar" that she decorated for us, and it was PERFECTION!!! She has true vision and excellent taste. I'm so happy with how everything turned out!

I loved my flowers so much!!! They made my wedding so gorgeous. She did an excellent job, I highly recommend her to anyone.

Our wedding was at City Park in April and Margaret did an amazing job creating the most beautiful atmosphere with her floral designs and artistic eye. She did a wonderful job with our budget to design and decorate The Arbor Room and Popp Fountain. We are very impressed with her work and cannot thank her enough for the time, hard work, and help in the decision making process, she made it easy! We highly recommend you consider Leaf + Petal to help you design a perfect wedding.

I would recommend Leaf + Petal NOLA over and over again! Margaret created all of the flowers for our ceremony -- bouquet, boutonnieres, and corsages for our mothers. I met with her once to go over our vision for the flowers. She created absolutely perfect arrangements that incorporated all of the things I loved about the photos I had shown her while adding her own personal twist. The flowers felt unique and personalized! I received a TON of compliments on my bouquet -- and the beautiful pops of color that added to our color scheme. The flowers were delivered directly to my hotel room on the day of the wedding with plenty of time before the ceremony started. Margaret sent me a picture of the bouquet the night before the wedding, so I knew exactly what I would receive on the day of the event. I really appreciated the outreach on the day before and the flowers were even more beautiful in person! Margaret is really great to work with! She is quick to respond to emails and very adaptable. I actually added additional boutonnieres and corsages about a month before the wedding and Margaret was able to accommodate that need. When I told her that we'd be having a vintage wedding at the Federal Ballroom, she offered a variety of suggestions to help us plan out the rest of our non-floral decorations. She is a wealth of knowledge and very clearly passionate about what she does! On top of all that, I found the company to be reasonable priced. Margaret worked with us to make sure we stayed within our budget. We were incredibly happy with outcome. I would recommend Leaf + Petal to anyone!

Margaret was so wonderful to work with! Flowers were something I cared a lot about it for the wedding, but wasn't very knowledgable about. After meeting with Margaret, I just felt so comfortable that she *got* what I was going for. It was so wonderful, as a bride, to feel so confident in a vendor! My flowers were so incredibly beautiful and just what I had imagined. She & her staff even went way above and beyond to help fix a weather-related issue for our reception that definitely was not their responsibility. I'd recommend Margaret over and over!

Margaret is great and so easy to work with. I sent her a few pictures and she knew exactly what I was looking for. She creates very natural looking arrangements and bouquets, which I love! She was very responsive whenever I had questions.

Margaret is amazing! My flowers could not have turned out more beautiful, and she executed what I imagined for my flowers with perfection. She also was willing to work with my budget. I would seriously recommend her flowers for anyone looking for some beautiful florals!

Margaret is a gem! I was a bit nervous about flowers. I couldn’t really explain what I wanted but I didn’t want anything traditional. Margaret knew exactly what I meant. She was so easy to work with and she was very helpful in explaining all the options. She comes highly recommended and knows the New Orleans venues well. She could tell me what I needed and didn’t need for our venue. Our guests loved the natural and romantic look of our centerpieces and my bouquet was exactly how I imagined. She is so talented and I am happy I can continue seeing her beautiful work on Instagram!

Words cannot describe the beauty and genius of Leaf & Petal. Margaret met with us to help plan our destination wedding to New Orleans on 2/11/17 and brought so many ideas for my natural and architecturally designed wedding. I knew nothing about florals but had very specific dreams on the ambiance and look of the wedding. She was able to take my ideas and bring them to a reality, going above and beyond to research things I might like. She was organized, professional, detailed, and extremely kind. Our wedding was a “flip” where the ceremony room was flipped to the reception during our cocktail hour with seating for 150 people. She worked so hard and the room was transformed in one hour on the dot. The guests were blown away that the room had been transformed into this romantic, candlelit reception with greenery trailing down each table and beautiful florals throughout. I completely trusted her from the first time I met her because she is so knowledgeable and talented. Looking at her work, she is able to design for many different types of styles, but the common factor is that it always looks natural and beautiful. LOVE Leaf & Petal and consider having Margaret one of the best decisions of my entire planning process!

I can't say enough great things about Margaret and her work! The #1 most commented on item from my wedding was the flowers. They were absolutely stunning. Margaret went above and beyond to make my wedding amazing. I will be recommending to everyone! Thanks, again Margaret.

LOVED our experience with Leaf + Petal! Margaret is instinctually amazing with florals! I found her initially on The Knot and loved the natural look of her arrangements. We met and I just gave her colors...The flowers were STUNNING! Got so many compliments! Thank you, Margaret! Highly Recommend!

Leaf + Petal is 100% the way to go! As an out of town bride choosing vendors was difficult but I definitely made the right choice! Margaret's style is unique and beautiful and she works with you within your budget to come up with your vision! She was easily accessible throughout the whole process, even texting me pictures along the way. The flowers were more beautiful than I could have imagined and I can't stop looking at pictures! She is very talented and passionate at what she does and she was a joy to work with! I hope to have the chance to work with her again in the future!! Thanks again Margaret!!
