Martha is INCREDIBLE! Her floral arrangements and bouquets for my wedding were a work of art! The centerpieces added an element of magic to the room and everyone was just in awe. I cannot tell you how many people came up to me on my wedding day...
to tell me how amazing the flowers were. People are still taking about the flowers to me many weeks later. Martha is so nice and amazing at what she does and highly recommend her if you want absolutely stunning wedding flowers. When reaching out to multiple florists at the beginning of wedding plan she was the one who fully understood my "vision" and not only did she execute it perfectly, she blew my expectations out of the water and made it even better than I could have ever imagined! Thank you so much Martha, I am eternally grateful!
All I can say is choose Martha!!! You won't regret it, she is truly the best in the business. She is incredible, so talented and friendly. Our flowers were breath-taking and exactly how I imagined them!
Martha's flowers were truly magical. Flowers are a huge part of my life and were so important to my daughter for her wedding. We didn't have much by way of decorations other than the flowers so they set the entire tone. She listened attent...
ively to my daughter's vision of "enchanted, whimsical, magical vibe" and Martha absolutely "got it" and created arrangements that blew us all away. She asked for all of the details from the bride dress, jewelry, bridesmaid dress, venue pics, etc. so she knew how to tie it all together through flowers. Martha herself is a truly lovely human. She provided extra glass votives to complete the look. Her "pick up team", Tom and his son, were also lovely at the end of the night. Highly, highly, recommend!
Martha's work is absolutely stunning!! She made my vision come to life and then some. I could not believe my eyes when I saw our bouquets the morning of the wedding. She is also the kindest person and such a joy to work with. Highly recommend!!
We could not have been more impressed with Martha's Gardens for our wedding! Martha put together the most beautiful wedding canopy that we have ever seen (either in-person or online). Additionally, Martha was such a joy to work with and is the ...
best of the best when it comes to taking one's vision and putting it into reality. Thank you Martha for helping make our wedding so beautiful. 10/10!
Martha did the flowers for my November 2019 wedding, and I was thrilled with how everything turned out. We had a few complications, one being that another couple was getting married at our church immediately before us. Martha managed to get the...
church decorated right before our ceremony in a very short span of time, while also getting our reception venue across town prepared. The flowers looked great, and were perfectly in line with the photos I had shown her. She also quoted us at less than other florists we talked to. She's a very kind person, and exactly the kind of presence you want to be around during the stress of planning a wedding. Would highly recommend!
Stunning florals! Martha is a gem! She's creative, enthusiastic, gregarious, and a master at her craft. When asked to adorn our maple tree for the wedding ceremony, she created a masterpiece that exceeded all expectations. The bride's flora...
l crown and bouquet were perfection! All table florals were masterfully arranged creating a whimsical, organic, yet elegant feel to our backyard wedding. Martha's vision and artistry are unparalleled for creating a magical wedding day.
Martha is amazing. She is a true artist, brings visions to life - plus she is a truly delightful person. I had a pretty specific vision and she not only nailed it, she did it better than I could’ve imagined. I can’t express enough gratitude to ...
her and her team, but i can tell you that if you have a chance to work with them, I would 100% recommend them. Best vendor I worked with for my wedding.
Martha went above and beyond for our wedding! She understood my vision and executed it beautifully. We wanted to incorporate my great-grandmother's vintage glassware into the centerpieces and she designed gorgeous vignettes around them. We aske...
d for a floral arch on the arbor, and she created an arch way beyond our wildest dreams! On the day of the wedding, her team was on location adjusting and even helping put the floral touches in our bridesmaids' hair. She is well worth the money - both for her talent and overall loveliness.
Planning my wedding as an out-of-town bride proved most challenging when trying to locate good vendors - especially for flowers. I knew I wanted fresh and vibrant floral designs and learned of Martha's Gardens from a friend. My MIL met with Mar...
tha in-person and was immediately drawn to her warm and personable style. Upon speaking with Martha myself over the phone and later during a visit to the Twin Cities, I knew my wedding day flowers were in excellent hands.
Martha and her team created beautiful custom designs for my wedding ceremony, reception, and party members based on a color palette I had in mind and bloom types/textures that I like. Martha was also flexible about changes that were made months and weeks before the big day, and at no point tried to up-sell me or suggest pieces that I did not want or need. She really listened to what I requested and then created true pieces of art for all to enjoy.
Could not have been happier with the quality of the pieces when I arrived at my wedding venue. They were so beautiful and unique! My husband recognized that Martha used hops as part of our head table runner - something I would never have thought of. Our guests and family gave glowing comments about our floral arrangements. We decided to have the team drop off, setup and break down for our event and it made the entire day so much easier. They were professional and made every effort to make my venue look even more beautiful.
The work produced by Martha and her team is both affordable and stunning. Would HIGHLY recommend collaborating with her to any brides in search of a great florist in the Twin Cities!
Martha is such a creative spirit! Along with her team, she helped us bring to life our vision for wedding flowers. Even when we changed our minds multiple times, she rolled with the punches and the end result was beautiful! We had a friend pick...
up our flowers since our wedding was out of town; she gave us a call ahead of time to make sure she had our order right (which was a great idea since we did have a big misunderstanding) and packaged all the flowers so they were suitable for transportation. We are giving her four stars out of five because of some slight difficulties with communication and appointment times. Our flower arrangements turned out better than we could have ever imagined and we are so thankful!
Martha will give you the most amazing flowers ever! She COMPLETELY knocked all my dreams out of the park. I wanted sunflowers in March, and she was able to call her guy in NEW ZELAND (?!?) to get them flown in. She did an amazingly beautiful su...
nflower backdrop for our ceremony, all the centerpieces and votives, all bridal bouquets, a head table runner, and various other decorations. All of them were incredible and there is nobody else I would have trusted to bring my picky flower dreams come to life. If you hire Martha, you'll know that the whole day will be so easy for you. She and her team will come set up, and tear down, and you can rent a whole array of other decorations from her shop as well. She is the nicest, most supportive person I have ever worked with.
We are a husband and wife photography team that worked with Martha's Gardens at a client’s wedding in August. The florals were true works of art - absolutely gorgeous to photograph. We hope to work with Martha's Gardens again in 2019! Book them...
for your wedding day! - Cameron & Tia Photography
I met with a few florists before choosing Martha's gardens. My favorite part about Martha is she wasn't forcing me to make any decisions! If I felt unsure about a decision she assured me that her and her staff would choose something that was be...
autiful and it ALL WAS! Our bouquets, the reception tables, the arch she built at the church (WHICH WAS AMAZING) was all perfect and beyond what I could have ever tried to choose myself. She knew it was important to me to have peonies in my bouquet. Even though it was difficult to get them for a December wedding, she made it happen. If you work with Martha you are getting a vendor that is so unbelievably passionate about what she does. She will make sure everything is perfect!
Martha was so friendly and perfectly captured our winter wedding vision - she was the only florist we met with that creatively suggested unique ideas that we hadn't considered. She met with us several times throughout the planning process, and ...
was so flexible in creating samples for us before our wedding. We couldn't be more pleased with our experience!
Martha and team are INCREDIBLE. I was nervous because I had a big vision and a small budget and somehow Martha not only made it work, but made it better than I imagined. From my bridal bouquet to my reception garland, I was floored by the gorge...
ous work that went into each. Even though I had a winter wedding, I absolutely adore peonies (which were not in season) but Martha was able to sneak in some white peonies into my bouquet whereas no other vendor was able to do so. She's also the sweetest person to work with, I really enjoyed all my meetings and calls with her. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Martha and her team were very helpful and friendly. I loved my bouquet and and the garland she made for my main table! I had a tight budget but Martha made it easy to work with yet not let go of the vision I had in mind. Definitely recommend.
Martha is the most sweet and creative person you will meet in the flower business. I met with her at her shop and told her about the day and my dress and showed her pictures of what I was thinking and she immediately started doodling sketches o...
f what she was thinking. We did a pick up of the flowers (usually they deliver but our venue was far away) and she had everything ready in boxes labeled and ready to just set out. And I know I'm biased but my bouquet was the prettiest one I've ever seen! She knocked it out of the park. AND she worked with my budget. Martha is the best!
Martha and her team are absolutely AMAZING! The flowers at my wedding were more incredible than anything I ever could've imagined! She is so easy and fun to work with and so incredibly talented! She understood the vision I had for my wedding ri...
ght away and took the time to talk through all the details of my wedding to get a clear picture of the entire day. I trusted her to use her expertise to make the final decisions about all of the florals and she blew me away!! Our reception centerpieces were spectacular and we got so many complements from our guests all night! Our personal flowers were also incredibly stunning! My bridal bouquet was the most beautiful bouquet I have ever seen! I cannot recommend her enough!! Thank you Martha!!
We loved our experience working with Martha's Gardens for our 9/29 wedding. I gave Martha and team a few photos for inspiration and left the rest up to them. They hit it out of the park. I originally was just going to have personal floral (wedd...
ing party, parents, grandparents), but decided later on to include tall and low centerpieces. I'm so glad I did. The flowers were absolutely stunning and we received endless compliments from guests. The candlelight paired with the flowers made our reception beautiful and exactly what I had hoped for.
I had contacted quite a few florists before deciding on Martha's Gardens due to their customer service. I had such a positive experience during the consultation (they wrapped a flower for me to take home!) that I knew I had to book them. They handled any changes we requested with ease, Karin walked through everything with me when I simply stopped in to pay the rest of the balance (I so appreciated that), called me the day before the wedding to assure me everything was set and to wish us well, and included a lovely note upon delivery of everything to our hotel. My bouquet had the sweetest 'happily ever after' ribbon wrapped around it. Those little touches are what stand out to me and what I'll remember most.
Martha was a true joy to work with! I had very few floral needs, and changed my mind quite a few times, but she was understanding and helpful the whole way through! My bouquet ended up even more beautiful than I could have imagined!
I couldn't have asked for a better florist for my wedding! I absolutely loved all of the floral arrangements, and my bouquet was outstanding! Martha and her team went above and beyond to help create a beautiful wedding for my husband and I. For...
our wedding, we chose not to have anyone stand up, and we also didn't choose a particular color scheme. Martha and her team were able to create an outstanding display of flowers and greens despite my indecisiveness. I gave her little to work with and she really blew me away. We hired them to do flowers for everything for the wedding including arrangements, bouquet, the wedding arch, flowers for my hair, flowers for the cake, corsages, and boutonnieres. She also created the most beautiful wand for our flower girl. She is extremely talented and I felt like she read my mind. She was even able to recommend a linen company that was also excellent. In fact, the other vendors I worked with (wedding venue, cake company, musician) all had wonderful things to say about her and her staff and the beautiful work that they do. Not to mention she is just an extremely pleasant person! I joked that I wanted to quit my job as an RN to work with her. My guests were very impressed with how beautiful the flowers were. I very highly recommend this company, and am grateful we hired them for our special day!
We absolutely love everything about Martha and her gorgeous design sense. My daughter’s wedding was last weekend and could not have been more lovely. Despite not having an outdoor ceremony, Martha’s use of greens and herbs were simply stunning ...
and brought the outdoors inside to create something spectacular. She understood our vision, and without using any flowers (only herbs, greens and berries) she was able to create the most beautiful, natural space that enchanted all of our guests. And her sweet, gentle personality was calming and reassuring throughout the entire process. There is nothing this woman can’t do, she is a class act. Thank you Martha and staff from the bottom of our hearts, you truly made our daughter’s wedding very special❤️
Martha is a beautiful creator! She listened to my vision and brainstormed with me the most incredible designs that excited me for my big day. But best of all, she's one of the kindest and most easy going vendors you will encounter in your weddi...
ng preparation process. Highly recommend!!
Beautiful flowers and even more amazing vision. These guys made an already beautiful venue magical.
We had Martha’s Gardens as our florist for our November wedding and she did an absolutely gorgeous job! We live within blocks of her shop and loved having a local artist help with our special day. I sent pictures of ideal bouquets to help with ...
my vision and she did not disappoint. We also enjoyed meeting with her staff who helped us with our budget, which they were very respectful of staying under. We received several compliments on the flowers and centerpieces, all thanks to Martha and her team! A very fun experience, highly recommend!
Martha was so relaxed when I told her my vision. I didn't have any doubt that she would put together the most beautiful bouquets!
Martha and her team did a miraculous job for our wedding. The bridal bouquet and bridesmaids bouquets were so gorgeous. Martha is so incredibly kind and caring and makes you feel like family from the moment you meet her. We wanted simple cente...
r pieces and she made them so special. She was even able to incorporate paper flowers I had made out of book pages in order to incorporate the library theme. I highly recommend!
WOW. Martha went above and beyond for us! She caught my vision for my day and ran with it and made it better than I imagined!! She was so helpful and let us borrow some of the vases and cake stands that she had in the store. She is so generous,...
kind, and caring! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Martha took the beauty of our wedding vision to a new level. I could tell right from the first time I met her that this was a creative process for her and I put the floral and venue décor completely in her hands. I had very little idea of wha...
t I was going to see on our wedding day (we talked winter wedding with lots of candlelight and that was about as far as we went) but she nailed it! My husband and I were in love with what she did with our event space. I had so many compliments on my bouquet and flowers (she found peonies for a December wedding!). As an event planner professionally, it would normally have made me very nervous to have such little information on exactly what we would be getting on our wedding day but I just trusted Martha. Because she took care of all the décor, it made that portion of our day stress free. I would highly recommend her for a full service florist and décor option. Her prices are worth it. She and her team are amazing.
Martha did a wonderful job with my flowers. I thought they turned out perfect and I loved them. The communication piece leading up to the wedding was not great. While I received a quote for how much bouquets, centerpieces, and everything else w...
ould cost, I did not get any information what a centerpiece or bouquet of this price point would look like or how big they would be (i.e. examples). I had to send multiple emails and call multiple times over the course of a few months to get this information. For me communication when planning a wedding is key and it was stressful to not have that.
We love Martha and her team! Martha is so sweet and truly went above and beyond to make our day beautiful and special. Their team did a fantastic job of bringing our ideas to life in a unique way. In addition of beautiful flowers, Martha's also...
has an array of eclectic decor rentals that helped us stay within budget.
Martha's florals absolutely MADE our wedding day. I went in totally unsure of what I wanted - just had a few words (northwoods, greenery, etc) - and she immediately translated my ramblings into exactly what I didn't know I wanted. THAT is the m...
agic of Martha - she is an artist, and can get herself into the "mode" you're in and create something more beautiful than you'd imagine. We got endless compliments on our centerpieces; Martha's ingenius pairings of mercury glass candle holders was the perfect finishing touch. In short: Martha is a JOY to work with, and her florals are downright incredible.
Martha is a great creative force. I have a very creative daughter who I knew would not want the usual large bouquets of flowers and glitz you usually see at weddings.
Sure enough, she wanted a naturalist(she's a biologist) theme with a touch o...
f the fantastical.
She gave Martha some hints and let Martha run with it.
The result was magical.
I really hated to leave the space at the end of the evening. I seriously doubt you could find a more creative spirit in the Twin Cities than Martha.
And did I say she's the nicest!
Martha was an absolute dream to work with. Meeting with her for the first time, I knew she understood my vision and exactly what I wanted my wedding day to look like. She is kind, friendly, and an incredible floral artist. Each of her arrangeme...
nts were works of art and we had tons of compliments on our wedding day! She also really worked with us to get as many flowers as possible to fit within our budget and continued to keep our limit top of mind. (Definitely appreciated when weddings can add up fast!) We also heard from other vendors how highly regarded she is in the wedding industry and truly was wonderful to work with. My family, husband, and I would all highly recommend her for any big event and will continue to use her for future arrangements we need!
Martha's Gardens was not my first choice for my wedding, but the florist we had chosen just retired. We relied on the suggestion of the venue. We decided to go with Martha since she wasn't a typical storefront for everyday flowers. She seemed t...
o specialize in events. When we made an appointment to meet with her, we got a quick greeting and then she excused herself and sent us to meet with her assistant Alicia. Alicia gave stock-robotic answers like she had practiced for a call center. She never really heard what we wanted. She did take notes and then we were on our way out.
When we got the estimate, it seemed quite outrageous and none of the details in it were correct. We were having a winter wedding and just wanted a lot of pine branches and hardly any flowers - this is MN, pine is not in short supply. After trying to contact martha on multiple occassions (and only getting her assistant asking if we'd sent the downpayment), we finally got through to her when we said we were thinking of going elsewhere. That got her at least on the phone where I had to run through what we wanted AGAIN. She sent another quote but none of the original, wrong details had changed. So as a last resort and coming up on the wedding date we got my parents involved. She said she could meet with us in person. I thought that was it and everything would be resolved. She created an example for us in the store that was pretty spot on. Then the day of the wedding, everything was wrong, everything was skimpy and some stuff she said was going to be there just wasn't. She also said she'd be the one to set up in person to ensure everything was correct. She was not there, only the assistant and some other help. Everything looked like an incorrect, poor-man's version of what we had decided on in the 2nd meeting.
I would never recommend Martha's Gardens. If I could go back and choose a different florist, I ABSOLUTELY would. She may have a good eye for creativity, but her execution, service, business acumen, choice in assistant is completely lacking. Don't Use Her!
Martha and her team did an incredible job on our wedding flowers, they were simple, elegant and classic which was exactly what I wanted. They look stunning in our photos and made the whole atmosphere beautiful!
I chose Martha because I had seen her work before. She and her team love what they do and it's very apparent. Martha's love for flowers shows and her joy in what she does will brighten your day when you meet with her. I guarantee this. Her ener...
gy will inspire you to make your wedding dreams come alive.
Martha is the sweetest! I wanted a very natural and organic look to my wedding day and Martha and her ladies delivered. Martha wanted every and any little detail I had to offer about my decor. She wanted to know what flowers I liked and disli...
ked and what the over all feel of the wedding should be. We worked great together and she was always available for questions. I received so many compliments on my bouquet and the reception flowers. Picture perfect flowers for a picture perfect day!
Martha is FANTASTIC! She made our wedding look incredible. She is so artistic, she can take your vision and bring it to life. I cannot recommend her enough!
martha supplied all the flowers and centerpiece decor for our wedding. she is a true artist and the flowers at our wedding were beyond beautiful. martha is a joy to work with, as well, and brings a lot of fun to the wedding planning process.
Martha was an excellent listener and was able to capture my daughter's vision perfectly! The bouquets and flower arrangements were stunning!We received so many compliments from our guests! Martha is also very sweet and easy to work with.
She is AMAZING. I could not have dreamed up a better scene for our wedding ceremony. She made an arch of greens hanging with balls of red floral and purple ribbon hanging down. Simply gorgeous, everyone commented. She is a creative genius.
Martha is truly one of the most talented florists ever. But not only is she BEYOND talented, but she understood exactly what I wanted. She truly listened to what I envisioned for the flowers for my wedding. I would recommend Martha's Garden's F...
loral Studio again and again!!!
My budget for flowers was approximately $2500. Martha created a brides bouquet, three beautiful bridesmaid bouquets. We also ordered centerpieces for the reception. The bouquets were great but the centerpieces were just ok - very simple - on...
e stem of hydrangea with a leaf accent. I felt as if I may have been able to easily replicate the centerpiece myself. Overall I was very please but Martha is an artist and is not inexpensive by any stretch of the imagination! If you have a nice size budget for flowers - go for it!
