Love Blooms

bouquet, every garland of beautifully draped smilax was beyond my dreams for the day. During our planning sessions Emily came prepared with visuals and mock-ups of what we discussed which, given my limited floral vocabulary, helped me articulate what we wanted. She has an amazing inventory of gorgeous items like lanterns and candles. One of my big asks for the day was to create a warm glow among the greenery for the tables and when I walked in I was speechless. The tables were even better than I had dreamed! She also was prepared for a rain plan, providing an arch for us if we had to bring everything inside. Emily and her team are incredibly talented, creative, thorough, and kind. We truly loved every single bit so much and are so thankful we got to work with them for our wedding. We cannot recommend them enough!

been hoping. I'm not all that sentimental about flowers (and didn't even really want flowers to begin with) and I found myself googling how to preserve my bouquet immediately after the wedding, because it was just that beautiful! I was especially impressed with the way she designed the florals and other decor for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. It was so much better than I could have ever imagined. She not only provided florals (or in our case primarily greenery) but also a whole array of options for candles and lanterns that made everything look just incredible. She identified areas I'd need decoration I never even considered, and her suggestions brought everything together just perfectly. Our wedding looked just beautiful and Emily and LoveBlooms was such a huge part of that! We are so thankful we used them and I would highly recommend to anyone!

looked at, her cost was completely reasonable for everything she put together. I would HIGHLY recommend her as your florist <3

as incredibly gracious about the shift and helped me reworked our entire floral design to better align with our new venue. We did all our consulting over the phone/email and Emily nailed my clean and classic vision to a tee! I was very specific about the sizing/style of my bridal bouquet - small, delicate, and rounder in shape -- and Emily delivered! I was also completely blown away walking down the aisle and seeing our archway for the first time. It came out stunning and photographed beautifully. Similarly, when we stepped into our reception my heart was so full and I still can’t get over how the centerpieces turned out. One of the things I really appreciated about Emily was how she provided a range of options at various price points for each element (bouquets, centerpieces, arches, etc.) This helped us develop a package with all our wishlist items and stay on track with our budget. All the floral was delivered on time, full, and fresh. Could not have been more thrilled with Emily’s work she truly went above and beyond!

n the final lead-up. Everyone commented on how beautiful the flowers were, and we couldn't have been happier with how everything came together! Excellent work and great value!!!

- even better than I could have imagined. Despite having provided Emily with pretty confusing feedback (changing my mind twice and struggling to verbalize my vision), she somehow nailed it and made my dream design a reality! She squeezed every penny out of our budget, making the flowers look super expensive without breaking the bank. In fact, one of our guests guessed the price of our overall florals, which was more than double what we actually paid. On a personal note, Emily was extremely professional, quick to respond to emails, and just an overall nice person to work with. I can't recommend Emily and her beautiful flowers enough!!

at I was asking for. She did a wonderful job taking my not-super-specific vision and turning it into the wedding bouquet of my dreams. She gave me something that was unique and so beautiful. She was wonderful to work with and provided a lot of great creative insight as we were selecting centerpiece arrangements. She was responsive and did a great job of working within the budget provided.

ng it. The entire wedding decor was fantastic due in large part to her. I'm so thankful to have found her!

my wedding flowers. We met a couple of times and sent pictures, and from there she was able to come up with some ideas of how to set up the table arrangements. I also looked into some other florists in the beginning and Emily is priced extremely competitively. She also will rent you all the vases, candles, votives, etc which cuts down on the amount of stuff you have to buy/store and is just so much easier. When I saw my flowers on my wedding day, I cried . They far surpassed even my wildest dreams and my flowers were absolutely my favorite (material) part of my wedding. When it came time to discard my wedding bouquet before leaving for my honeymoon I was so sad to part with it because it was so beautiful! When I went to the venue and saw the tables and the various flower set ups we discussed I was absolutely blown away. I am still getting comments from guests on how beautiful my flowers were. Emily and Love Blooms made my dream wedding come true and I couldn't be more thankful. I am SO happy that I chose Love Blooms for my special day and can't thank them enough for making my wedding so beautiful!

anning process. She was patient and helpful every time I emailed her with a question (which was many, many times over the last year). She sent photos of arrangements from my specific venue so that I could see what other couples had done with the space. She always had helpful and practical suggestions when I was stuck on a design decision. After we first met with Emily in person and discussed what type of florals we were looking for, she sent me an "inspiration board" with photos of different arrangements - having visuals was SO helpful when deciding on the style of our flowers! On the day of the wedding, Emily dropped off my bouquet to the hotel, and stayed after the ceremony to relocate/repurpose some flowers for the reception space. I also really appreciated that she picked up her vases at the end of the night - it was one less thing for us to worry about packing up. Our flowers themselves were gorgeous, and we were thrilled with how everything looked on the big day. We are so happy that we found Love Blooms, and highly recommend Emily's services to anyone else looking for a florist!!

d look - super helpful. She also replied to a zillion emails and shared pictures, pinterest boards, etc. to make us at ease and answer all of our questions. We started early on our wedding day as we went around DC to take pictures so we needed the bouquets, beautiful succulent boutonnieres, etc before noon that day despite the ceremony not being until 5pm. Emily was amazing and dropped everything off before 10am at two separate locations in DC the morning of our wedding - really above and beyond if you ask me. As for the bouquets - Emily nailed it, we got exactly what the bride was hoping for. She was even able to work in some succulents for us, definitely not something all vendors can do. At the ceremony we had Emily provide greenery for the aisles, candles and lanterns, as well as a few more floral arrangements. Everything looked perfect and really helped make our dream wedding a reality. For the reception, we didn't want massive overwhelming arrangements and we were trying to stick to a budget. Emily happily worked with us to make it all fit - not only on the table, but within our budget. She was able to make relatively simply bud vases beautiful and the entire venue looked amazing as a results. She also provided candles and votives for the tables which looked amazing as well. She was a total professional and had things set up early and was one of the first vendors to hit the ground running at the end of the night. We kept the bouquet in water and a week later it still looks amazing and is a nice reminder of our wedding and the exceptional quality of service we received from Emily. We will be recommending her to anyone who asks (and some who don't ask!) for their events in the future.

perfectly, which is difficult to do since, I’ll admit… I am very type-A and difficult to please :) On top of delivering the most beautiful flowers I’ve ever seen, Emily went above and beyond to make sure I didn’t have to lift a finger on my wedding day. Leading up to the big day, we went back and forth via email trying to nail down the vision, and then on the actually day, she ran around DC from my hotel room, to the church, and then the venue to set up. In the end, everything turned out perfect, all thanks to Emily! LOOK no further, Love Blooms is the florist for your wedding day! Best decision we made!

first meeting, she was incredibly helpful - she asked great questions and listened to my ideas. Within a few days, she followed up with several bouquet and centerpiece options with photos and a list of flowers included in each! So of course I wasn’t surprised when my bouquet was gorgeous as were my bridesmaids’ bouquets. So simple and stunning. My chuppah was easily the most beautiful I have ever seen! But the flowers are only the start of why I recommend Emily. In short, she was a key element in my planning and I could not have planned my wedding without her. When I couldn’t decide on a color for my table numbers, Emily provided thoughtful insight that reflected my wedding style. When I was torn between two tablecloth linens, she provided that same perspective. If you are looking for a florist who is sensitive to your thoughts, easy to work with, with a perceptive aesthetic vision for translating what flowers you like into a overall style for your event go with Emily. She is a delightful person who has a lovely combination of traits every bride needs-- she's a calming influence who can help you to articulate what you want--but also has the extreme professionalism of pulling off a perfectly flawless execution on your big day. Did I mention she was EARLY on my wedding day? Thank you, Emily, for everything.

ted my bouquets and centerpieces to look like and came up with the perfect designs. And unlike other florists I spoke with, Emily had no trouble being accommodating with my fairly tight flower budget, always letting me know what was possible at the price point I stated and what it would take to do exactly what I was describing, and helping us come up with budget-friendly solutions for everything. The bouquets were just so gorgeous, and I could not have been happier.

ith a somewhat limited budget. Work with Emily and you will not regret it!
