Maria is AMAZING! I cannot say enough great thing about Maria and her team at Mums the Word, in Marlton, NJ.
My now husband has been using Maria for flower arrangements for years and every holiday or special occasion she has produced just t...he most gorgeous arrangements. So when it came time for us to plan our wedding there was no doubt that we would be using her. The funny thing is, prior to meeting Maria people in my office and distant friends were giving me suggestions about florists in the area and almost everyone said that she had done their wedding. This included my Boss and other co-workers, some high school friends I haven’t spoken to in years. It was as if everyone in the South Jersey area knew her and would gush about their flowers at their weddings.
I would stress to any bride contemplating using Maria for her services that she is not the typical florist. She will learn about you and your style and help understand and create everything you envision for your special day (she works with you budget too!). If you put your trust in her you will not be disappointed. I love flowers, it was one of the most important aspects of my wedding and from the moment I met Maria I just loved her. We bounced ideas off of each other and she really was able to capture exactly what I envisioned in my mind. My flowers, ESPECIALLY my bouquet were UNBELIEVABLE! ( I received so may compliments and my bridesmaids were obsessed with theirs as well) What is also great about Maria’s services is she provides you with a “mock” bouquet to bring to your final fitting to make sure that you are happy. Once I saw that bouquet I knew I had made the right choice. Heck, my mock bouquet last almost two weeks.
Obviously the wedding process is extremely stressful. I had a long engagement about 18 months, and Maria would contact me from time to time to make sure I hadn’t changed my mind and check to see how things were going. Majority of my flowers were peonies, hydrangeas, tulips, and white O’Hara’s I followed her suggestions a few times regarding some of my center pieces and they turned out beautiful. At first I envisioned my low centerpieces to be a tight bundle of tulips, Maria came to me with the suggestion of keeping the tulips and going even further by having them outline the glass vase so the entire centerpiece from the vase to the arrangement was flowers. It was gorgeous and people were drooling over them.
On the day of my wedding, the delivery went off without a hitch! My wedding planner also complimented how great it is to work with her team and the product she produces. Overall I cannot say enough! Mums the Word is Amazing! You can’t go wrong with Maria..
