She nailed our floral vision and was super easy to work with!
Michaleen was recommended to me by one of her former wedding customers. She spoke so highly of Michaleen and her work and I am so happy I took her up on the advice to use her for out special day. She was easy to work with, responsive, and professional. We had a brief meeting up front about my vision and she gave me an outline for what to expect as far as budget. As our special day approached we met again to go over details, I changed my mind quite a bit during our planning time and she was always willing to accommodate. When I saw my venue decorated with her floral work I was speechless. Every single piece, the bouquets, the arrangements, every single decor piece was just stunning. Her work is perfect and her attention to detail is bar none. I received multiple complements from guests and even the vendor/wedding coordinators! Her work is worth every single penny and I'd hire her and spend it all over again in a heart beat- Michaleen does not disappoint. 10 out of 10 - WOULD recommend!
Michaleen's brought our wedding vision to life, and the result was absolutely beautiful! I knew nothing about flowers or what all I needed for a wedding. Michaleen guided us through the planning and ordering process, asking about all of the potential needs for a wedding ceremony and reception so we wouldn't forget anything! She arrived promptly on our wedding day with PERFECT bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, and extras. Our guests have been raving about how gorgeous her work is, and several have reached out to us asking about this amazing florist! Beyond grateful that we found Michaleen's for our day. Fully recommend!!!
Michaleen was a joy to work with. She took the time to listen and talk through my vision, giving really great advice! The bouquets were absolutely gorgeous and the flower crowns for the flower girls were really such a special touch. Highly recommended!
Michaleen's did a wonderful job on my wedding bouquet. They were friendly and welcoming at the shop and had a great portfolio of past work. They worked with my budget to give me exactly what I wanted within my price range. They are also very attentive to details and mindful of current trends. The flowers were fresh and arranged perfectly. The bouquet was ready to be picked up exactly when they said it would be. The flowers were gorgeous and I received so many compliments. I would absolutely recommend Michaleen's.
Michaleen worked within my budget and was very reasonable. She was responsive to my emails and questions. I shared my vision with her with no specific flowers in mind and she still totally got it! I asked if we could include artichokes and peppers and she went out and got them just for the bouquet and boutonniere. Highly recommend!
Michaleen was amazing and so easy to work with! I simply showed her pictures and told her ideas and she made my vision come to life. She was so great with any last minute changes or add on's. She delivered quality arrangements that lasted through an entire, hot July day. Michaleen was also, by far, the most reasonable and affordable florist I found in the area without sacrificing any quality. We loved working with her and highly recommend!
We used Michaeleen's for our wedding ceremony and reception flowers and we are so happy we did! Mickey takes so much pride in all of her work and clearly wants every bride to feel special. We had our first planning meeting 18 months ahead of the wedding given we only had a few availabilities to visit the area before the big day. Mickey took amazing notes and clearly understood everything we are looking for. We didn’t speak again until 4 months before the wedding where Mickey remembered every detail I was looking for from the coral in the bridesmaids bouquets, to the highs on the table decor and everything in between. Micky and my planner (Terra Rosa) ended up spending two days setting up the greenery/florals for the big day! Everything looked amazing, brighter, fresher and more perfect than I could have imagined. Every single flower was clearly chosen to make an impact and look fresher than that last. Thank you Mickey for all your beautiful work!! You absolutely transformed my wedding reception site! Thank you!!!!
Michaleen was a pleasure to work with. We planned a destination wedding at the Ginny Lee and mainly corresponded through email. I didn’t know much about flowers but I showed Michaleen some pictures of what I liked. The day of the wedding I was blown away by the beautiful flower arrangements. It was as if she read my mind. I promise you will not be disappointed with Michaleen’s.
We worked directly with Stacey at Michaeleen’s and she was awesome. Very responsive and helped us understand what our options were for the season. Day of I was in complete shock at how beautiful the flowers were and I couldn’t have been happier.
Miachaleen's was wonderful to work with! They responded immediately to my initial inquiry, and were easy to contact throughout the wedding process. We had a destination wedding in Aurora, NY, and Stacey made the process easy and stress-free. She worked with our schedule for arranging an in person meeting and she was very personable. And the flowers...they were WONDERFUL! She literally made my wedding vision a reality! The bouquets, the tables, the favors (we did tea bud vases with flowers) were all STUNNING! If you are looking to have gorgeous flowers (at a reasonable price too), then book Michaleen's!!!
Working with Michaleen as our wedding florist was such a pleasure and a joy. I was not able to meet her in person until a few days before the wedding but she was always available, quick to respond, helpful, professional, personable and thoughtful through our months of planning by email and phone. She listened closely to all of my requests, elevated my ideas to the next level and produced the most stunning floral arrangements. Everything was absolutely perfect on the wedding day - from the bouquets to the chuppah decoration to the types of vases I asked for. She and her team worked so hard to bring together all of the varieties and colors of flowers I requested. The flowers made me smile ear to ear throughout the whole wedding day and now when I look at pictures. I appreciate greatly that on the day of the wedding her set-up timing was perfect and that I didn’t have to worry at all about anything; she was prepared and capable and needed no instructions/direction. I also am so grateful that she was able to work within my budget and still created the flower arrangements of my dreams! Thank you so much, Michaleen!
Our wedding was Oct 2017, and Michaleen and the whole team were absolutely wonderful! She was very patient and understanding when I made adjustments or changed my plans, making changes with me to make sure everything I asked for could be accomplished. We also had some ivy vines provided by my mom which she incorporated, and paper flowers made by me and my husband that she incorporated, AND she did flowers for our cake! The colors of the arrangements were so vibrant and lovely, the boutonnieres and corsages were equally as lovely as the bouquets, and she was lovely to work with. I'm so glad we went with Michaleen's!
Cannot say enough about Michaleen's! Not only are they wonderful people to work with, but the end product for our wedding was more beautiful than I could have imagined! I worked directly with Michaleen, who is absolutely lovely. They were willing to work with my budget and helped me figure out what direction to go in. If I had any questions, she was very quick to respond via email. I highly recommend them for all of your flower needs!
Michaleen went above and beyond to create the flowers of my dreams for my wedding and I could not be more happy with the results. Michaleen was actually the florist at my parents' wedding nearly 27 years ago and she so impressed them that they continued ordering flowers from her anytime they needed to send them to anyone in the area for years - so Michaleen was the natural choice for my wedding as well! She did an absolutely spectacular job. As my plan for the decor changed several times along the way she was able to make changes and handle everything so professionally and provide such unique and original ideas throughout the process. I also had some very specific ideas about a flower crown, which she was able to totally accommodate and I could not have been happier with how this important piece turned out (see picture below). Again, I could not be happier with my flowers and with the overall experience of working with her; she is the absolute best in the Finger Lakes region and will not disappoint!
We had our center pieces, aisle decorations, wedding arch decorations, bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages done by Michaleen's. We worked with Anna, who was lovely to work with. The flowers looked beautiful; they did a great job and the price was pretty good for the area. One complaint was that the men's boutonnieres were very fragile, and several of the guys' flowers broke off before the night had hardly even started. Luckily they were salvageable for the photos.
Michaleen is wonderful! She responded promptly to every email that I sent and she took the time to truly understand the vision I had for the flowers at my wedding. I was very pleasantly surprised by the number and quality of the flowers considering our budget.
As for the bouquets, she locally sourced some of the flowers, added some roses that perfectly matched my bridesmaids light pink/peach dresses, and wired in gorgeous succulents. Her centerpieces were also beautiful and the guests that took them home told us that they lasted for a really long time.
Perfect perfect perfect! ALL our flowers were literally perfect and exactly what we had wanted. The delivery, set up, and planning before the wedding was easy and Michaleen is sooooo wonderful to work with - she made everything happen wonderfully. The flowers were so amazing and they looked beautiful weeks after the wedding when kept in water!! HIGHLY recommend for any event. Our wedding was a dream.
Mickey was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond to ensure everything looked gorgeous for our rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception! She thought of everything and brought some really unique touches to the decor. From the ribbons on our napkins to the flowers on our cake, every detail was attended to. I was not sure what I wanted for flowers but gave her a couple different types that I liked and a loose color scheme and she worked her magic. All of the colors blended beautifully together and the arrangements were an exotic mix of different flowers, berries and greenery. Everything was so fresh and healthy that several guests and family members brought pieces home and some are still thriving, three weeks after the event! All of our guests loved the arrangements and Mickey has a unique and wide array of decor touches that really step up the appearance of the venue. Our venue actually kept most of her flowers on display throughout the resort for several days after our wedding.
She was very flexible and accommodated all of our requests, which was huge, since we planned our wedding from CA. She is a joy to work with and an absolutely talented professional.
Lauren at Michaleen's worked with me to plan the flowers for my wedding. I really wanted all ranunculus, which I was told by others wasn't possible, but Lauren made it happen. Everything looked beautiful and Lauren gave me great advice and was very flexible.
I had an amazing experience with Michaleen and her staff. My previous florist cancelled on me 3 months before my wedding and I was stressed about finding a replacement. Especially because I live in Las Vegas and was planning my wedding in Ithaca using only phone and internet with no chance to meet anyone beforehand. Michaleen was great from the moment I talked to her. She helped me find ways of saving money and was very patient going through my pictures and ideas and made appropriate suggestions. My flowers were ready on time, beautifully arranged, and very good quality. I also used the option of getting buckets of cut local flowers to make my centerpieces. These flowers are beautiful, very hardy, and an excellent option for a DIY bride on a budget.
The flowers were AMAZING!!! Absolutely gorgeous. All the bouquets and centerpieces were everything I pictured and had discussed with Michaleen. The blues and green were perfect. If I you are getting married in the Finger Lakes area, use Michaleen's!
My flowers were amazing with cymbidium orchids, roses, berries and more! They were incredible and michaleen's does an impeccable job with design and customer service
Being a gardening enthusiast, it’s no surprise that choosing the flowers and florist for my wedding would require careful consideration. Michaleen’s was definitely the right choice! First of all, Michaleen is wonderful to work with. She has a tremendous wealth of knowledge and experience and was able to answer every question I asked and make great suggestions. I had specific flowers that I wanted to use and she was always accommodating, making sure that they were complemented by the other flowers in the arrangements. Through our conversations, she was able to get a sense of my vision for the wedding and executed that vision with truly striking results.
While I grew up in the area, I had to plan the wedding from some distance and Michaleen was always quick to respond whenever I had a question or idea. She made the whole process so easy for me! Additionally, she has a great relationship with both the patisserie that worked on our cake and the venue where our ceremony and reception were held, making coordination a breeze. I simply can’t say enough nice things about Michaleen’s and would strongly advise anyone having a wedding in the area to meet with her and see for yourself!
The flowers that Michaleen and her team prepared were gorgeous! When I found out that my initial flower of choice would not be in season during my wedding, Michaleen came through with a ton of ideas that were better then what I had imagined. Everything was absolutely perfect!
Michaleens provided the bouquets and arbor flowers for my wedding this past summer. I was ultimately pleased with the flowers but the entire planning process was painful and unpleasant. The first meeting my fiance and I had was over a year before our wedding date. Admittedly, at that time there were so many details not finalized that it made some flower decisions difficult. So in the intervening months I looked through countless magazines and on the internet for ideas. I emailed photos of color schemes and flower combinations I liked and would get a sort of vague response saying they could do something like the picture but not quite. I never could get a straight answer from them about what exactly they could and couldnt do with regards to specific photos. Additionally, I had initially wanted them to do the centerpieces as well, but as I sent photos to give them an idea of what I wanted they kept changing the description to whatever was easiest for them to put together. When I asked for price estimates I was again met with a vague response...well it depends on this and that. I responded clarifying the specifics and still didnt get an accurate estimate. When the wedding was about 4 months away I emailed them again asking when I should come back to finalize the flowers. The response was that there was no need for another meeting and that they had what they needed. I found that mind boggling that they somehow knew what flowers I was having at my wedding when I didnt have any idea! I insisted on a second meeting and this time it was with Michaleen herself rather than one of her associates. Michaleen was completely unhelpful saying things like, “well we could have this flower for your wedding, but maybe not. Maybe it would be this one. Its mother nature you know, We’ll just have to wait and see whats available.” I understand that weather and seasons can dictate what flowers are available at a given time, but seeing as she is the flower professional here, I assumed that she would have a clue and could say with some confidence what I could expect. She was also unwilling to do ANY research into some of the flowers and colors I wanted leaving me to do what I felt was her job. I asked her to show me flowers currently in the case in the store to help me see color and texture patterns. She did it begrudgingly and didnt provide much insight. At that same meeting she showed me a specific flower that earlier we had decided was a possibility for my bridesmaids bouquets. I told her that seeing it now, I didnt like the color at all and did the flower come in a different shade? She said yes and that I should come back 2 weeks before the wedding to finalize the flower choices. Leaving this all to the very very last minute made me extremely uneasy (and frankly pissed off). People would ask me what bouquet I was having and I honestly couldnt tell them even though in my mind I had a clear image of what I wanted. When I went back 2 weeks before the date I met with one of Michaleen’s associates who was miraculously warm and helpful. She showed me the flowers Michaleen had set aside for me and there was the same flower I had seen a few months prior. In the same color I said I didnt like! When I pointed out that I had hoped that would be a richer color the woman said that maybe if I had let them know a month or so before they could have done something about it! I had done just that but Michaleen again didnt want to do any legwork to make this bouquet work for me
Michaleen exceeded our expecations! Our flowers were vibrant and beautiful - if you are looking for color, this is the place to go.
Our flowers were gorgeous! They were exactly what I had imagined and looked awesome against the girls bridesmaids dresses! The centerpieces on the tables and stands in the church were beautiful as well and really tied everything together!!
Michaleen's was an amazing pick for our wedding florist! I went in with an idea of what I wanted, got to sit and talk with the owner, and by the end of the day she was able to give me an estimated cost - which was very budget friendly!!! When the flowers arrived the day of my wedding I was pleasantly surprised with the size of all the bouquets!!! They were bigger than I expected and I was THRILLED! They were exactly what I had asked for and more beautiful than I could have imagined. Michaleen's worked with my ideas to create beautiful flowers for our wedding, and we couldn't have been happier. The girls there were always quick to respond to emails or phone questions and concerns.
