Ashley and Thelma are stellar at what they do! They set up a meeting to learn what my vision was for my bouquets, boutonnieres, and wedding reception atmosphere. They really honed in on the style, shape, and type of flowers that would be in season, and they gave great expertise to really make my bouquets and reception centerpieces absolute perfection on my wedding day. Both of these ladies brought creative and thoughtful ideas that made my reception look better than I ever imagined. Highly recommend Meraki for your floral/decor needs for all events!

Ashely and Thelma were wonderful to work with! They did a great job of creating flower arrangements that complimented our venue. On the day of the wedding they arrived early and made sure everything was ready ahead of time. Plus, they handled cleanup too! I would highly recommend you trust your wedding florals to their business.

My husband and I were so blessed by Ashley and Thelma for our December wedding! They stayed in consistent contact with me while I was planning from another state and were very responsive to my requests and vision. I absolutely loved my bouquet, and our reception site looked like an absolute dream thanks to Ashley and Thelma, their kindness and joy and professionalism.

WOW--We cannot recommend Ashley and Thelma enough. Flowers were really important to me and my bride and we were blown away by what Meraki delivered. They were friendly to work with, creative in their designs, and were able to put together gorgeous pieces.
We got married in a planetarium so it was important to really transform the place so it still felt like a wedding for my bride and I. During the months of planning we had several phone and video calls with them to discuss colors, designs, and how many pieces we wanted. A month before they walked the planetarium with us to help design the floral statement pieces. They were incredibly generous with their time, and so professional and responsive (and honestly, also so FUN) throughout the whole process. They also personalized the whole experience to exactly what we needed (which in our case, included some Star Wars flair!)
We ended up with several gorgeous pieces for our ceremony including a BEAUTIFUL 8 foot semi-arch that looked like a crescent moon. Thelma and Ashley were fun, creative, and the flowers were stunning. I snuck in while guests were getting seated and seeing the fairy lights, the flowers, and the arch was the second time I started to cry (the first was during the first look with my wife).

A florist vendor that you would never regret. My husband and I are from Canada and had to prepare the wedding overseas; Ashley and Thelma were very accommodating and flexible, making sure that our schedule/availability aligns, they are able to follow through what we envision our way would look like as well as our style and relationship as a couple. They created our dream a reality and we are grateful to have chosen them both as our florists! Affordable prices plus exceptional talent and service! 🧡 #clientsthatbecamefriends🧡💙

We worked with Thelma and Ashley on a commercial client event. We are not the most well versed in florals, but they listened to our needs and and interpreted that into a beautiful design that was the focal point for all of our guests. So many people wanted to take pictures at their stunning arch! They arrived early for set up and were very hands on in making sure everything was assembled to our needs and that the flowers would last as long as possible.

These ladies went above and beyond with executing my wedding floral needs.
As well as being extremely nice and well-rounded.
For my wedding I had two bouquets. One for myself, and a smaller one for my maid of honor. They included a variety of roses, greenery, and unique flowers. I am not a Pinterest Bride so during our initial consultation, I showed them a few ideas I liked, what my color profile is, and let them know that I want them to use their expertise.
I was blown away with how beautiful the flower arrangements looked.
My bouquet was a perfect size for me. Not too small and not too large. Super easy to hold. Everything smelled great and lasted throughout the day.
After the wedding, I dried my bouquet and put the maid of honor bouquet into a vase at my house.
We also had three small silk flower crowns made for the flower girls. This was a great keepsake gift for them, and they looked like cute little fairy children.
I was so happy when they told me that they were able to provide an arch to be used during the ceremony. They set up the arch with the flowers affixed before we even arrived and post ceremony it was moved to behind our sweetheart table. The flowers affixed to the arch were just stunning. A variety of colors just like we wanted. Red, yellow, pink, blush, green.
It definitely provided that pop of color that our venue needed.
We were an anti-white flower wedding, and they definitely stepped up to the plate with that.
They went above and beyond with helping us create are unique centerpieces. I did find an inspiration picture from Pinterest, but ours came out much better.
It had a wood round with some greenery, a yellow Chinese lantern on it with greenery and flowers affixed to the top. They were stunning and not your typical wedding centerpieces. We received so many compliments.
The ladies also went above and beyond with helping my mother, bustle my dress, as well as helped take the floral cages that were fixed to the arch back to the studio for the day, because my hands were so full at the end of the wedding.
I cannot recommend this company enough. They were extremely affordable, easy to communicate and work with.
But the best thing of all the flowers were absolutely stunning.

I am reviewing Meraki in every venue I can think of. If you are having an event, and you want everyone to rave about the flowers and the decorations, and how smoothly it went, you have got to get Thelma and Ashley to help you out. They MADE our wedding! If it weren’t for them, I would have been a wreck. Not to mention, everyone raved about the flowers. People took home centerpieces and said the flowers lasted for weeks. They smelled wonderful. They looked beautiful. My bridesmaids and I felt like princesses. They did not charge me an arm and a leg. They were so available and always ready with wonderful suggestions. I just cannot say enough about these two lovely, thoughtful, professional, helpful and patient ladies.

Ashley and Thelma are the BEST on your wedding day and throughout the whole wedding process. They worked with me on all my flower dreams to help me stay in budget but still have fun! They share so many creative ideas and keep in touch with you up until the big day! On the wedding day, getting to meet them was just as exciting as greeting my guests! Not only that, but they had such a sweet surprise for us of decorating the sweetheart with bonus flowers. They are personable, thoughtful, and very professional! Picking them will be the best decision on your big day!!

Ashley and Thelma were the BEST on my wedding day and throughout the wedding planning process. They started off with a very personal call to talk about vision and budgets. They went over my Pinterest page and helped me come up with a plan for what flowers would work for my color scheme and also stay in my budget! On the day of the wedding, they gave us a sweet surprise on the sweetheart table of extra flowers everywhere. It was so special! Getting to meet them in person that day was just as fun as meeting my guests as they became like friends to me!! I fully recommend them to everyone!!

Ashley and Thelma are amazingly talented florists and such fabulous people. We are so grateful for them and their patience with multiple reschedules due to covid, resulting in changing from supporting my wedding to doing my son’s wedding. The flower arrangements were beautiful, fresh and a perfect fit for the venue and wedding style. We hope to be able to have them help soon for another wedding coming up!
Dina, we LOVED creating for you. Your sweet family is precious and thank you for allowing...
us to be a part of your day.

Thelma and Ashley were wonderful to work with! They were able to recreate exactly what I had envisioned for my arch and bouquets while being mindful of my budget. I was especially blown away with how beautiful the floral arrangement and draping of fabric on the arch looked.

Ashley and Thelma made such beautiful florals for my wedding! I can not recommend them enough. They listened to my vision of a wedding with Fall colors, were accommodating, and flexible. They are kind and caring. We had to change our wedding date and venue 3 times but they were with me every step of the way. The arrangements and bouquets were colorful, fresh, and lively...just what I wanted and they turned out even better than I pictured in my mind. I am so glad I hired them.
