We couldn’t have been happier with Native Bloom! The arrangements and wedding arch were absolutely stunning and exceeded all our expectations. They perfectly captured our vision and brought so much beauty to our wedding day. Everything was fresh, vibrant, and thoughtfully designed. Highly recommend!

Florals were a very important part of our wedding. We marked it as one of the highest priority items and wanted to ensure that we found a florist who could replicate our shared vision. We approached the decor with the vibes of “a garden, but make it fall with a dash of whimsy and fantasy”. Jen at Native Bloom was very quick to pick up on these vibes and delivered a quote with inspiration pictures that matched what we were looking for.
Throughout the entire process, Jen was very easy to work with. We had a reasonable budget for the flowers and when there were aspects of her design that fell out of our price range, she quickly worked with us to find more cost-effective alternatives. We also collected a lot of vintage glassware for the table settings and were keen on having some of them used in the floral design. Jen was kind enough to meet us halfway between her shop and our home to pick up the vessels and incorporated them beautifully into the tablescapes. She provided fun suggestions to the floral design, including adding darker red tones to our dusty pink and sage green wedding colors and finding the perfect, fluffiest, most mystical moss to add to the tables. Jen helped to make our wedding day look and feel beautiful and we are so happy with the work she did!

Jen was great to work with-I sent her some inspiration pics, and she was easily able to work from that. When I made a mistake with the boutonniere count, there was no problem adding one in. Everything arrived and was set up on time and of course looked quite beautiful!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Jen from Native Bloom for our wedding, and she truly exceeded every expectation! From the start, Jen was not only incredibly affordable but also brought such a creative and personalized touch to every arrangement. Her attention to detail and the beauty she crafted in her florals was nothing short of breathtaking.
Jen was by far the easiest vendor we worked with. She was always responsive and quick to answer any questions we had, which made the entire process stress-free. What really stood out was how familiar she was with our venue. Before we even contacted her, we had chosen our location, and Jen had already worked there before. She showed us stunning options for arrangements and even provided photos of those setups at our specific venue. This made the decision-making process so smooth and easy for us!
Not only was she easy to work with, but Jen also made thoughtful recommendations that helped us get the most out of our budget. Instead of upselling us on additional arrangements, she found creative ways to repurpose florals we already selected for our sweetheart table, which saved us money without sacrificing beauty. Her honesty and expertise are unmatched.
If you’re looking for a florist who is both affordable and incredibly talented, look no further than Native Bloom. Jen will make sure your vision comes to life in the most beautiful way. We couldn’t be happier with our experience, and we highly recommend her to anyone planning their wedding! You won’t be disappointed!

Jen did an amazing job with our wedding! We asked for a wildflower theme and she knew exactly how to bring our vision to life. The day of set up was quick and smooth. Definitely recommend!

Our wedding day was visually elevated to a level of enchantment thanks to the extraordinary talents of Native Bloom. Their eye for design was apparent in every arrangement, from the delicate boutonnieres to the lush bridal bouquet. The flower combinations they curated were not only beautiful but also meaningful, with each bloom carefully selected to reflect our wedding theme.
Our consultation with Jen was wonderful and fun. Her eye for flowers made me feel confident that my bouquet was going to be timeless, graceful, and unique. She included ranunculus, tea roses, blue thistle, and other blooms to give my bouquet a level of beauty I couldn't describe.
The centerpieces were nothing short of gorgeous, as we selected to have long lush green table runners with hurricane candles throughout. Our guests loved this because they weren't just typical floral centerpieces and were a focal point of admiration . The fireplace designs were standout, transforming an ordinary space into a romantic haven that complemented the warmth and joy of our celebration.
Above all, the customer service provided by the florist was wonderful. Jen was attentive, responsive, and displayed a genuine passion for her craft. Her guidance through the selection process was invaluable, and her ability to bring my vision to life was truly impressive.
This florist is a master of their art, delivering not just flowers, but a full sensory experience that enhanced the beauty and sentiment of our special day.
Rating: 5/5 - A perfect blend of creativity, beauty, and service, highly recommended for any wedding or special event.

Jen was super responsive from the beginning and quick to draw up a proposal. She definitely understood our vision and created a detailed proposal with pictures of each flower she planned to use. She also accommodated our request for local flowers- everything in my bouquet except for one rose was grown locally! She delivered on time and set up the tables beautifully. She made our colorful wildflower vision truly come to life and we were so happy with how fresh and beautiful everything turned out.

Our flowers were absolutely stunning. I honestly did not know much about which flowers I wanted or much about flowers in general. Jen's proposal was very thorough with pictures of each flower used for each design and really detailed pricing, which I appreciated. It’s nerve racking not knowing how everything is going to turn out until your wedding day but Jen and her team OUTDID themselves. I could not have been more satisfied with the service and product. Everything was exactly how I imagined if not better. Super professional and they know exactly what they are doing. 10/10 recommend!

I used Native Bloom as the florist for my fall wedding at a haunted mansion. Jen absolutely knocked it out of the park. From our very first conversation, she knew exactly what I was looking for and helped bring my vision to life. We wanted a "spooky chic" kind of vibe for the wedding--lots of jewel tones and dark colors. She nailed it. I was honestly speechless when I walked into the venue and saw everything set up. Jen was also incredibly easy to work with and her prices were very fair. She was flexible as I requested some additions 2 weeks before the wedding. I highly recommend Native Bloom! Incredible work!

Native Bloom so so so easy to work with for my wedding! I had no idea what I was looking for besides a few colors and some descriptive words to explain the "vibe" I was hoping for. Jen put together a design quote within A DAY working from my Pinterest board. She included the breakdown of the cost for everything (you know exactly how much you are paying for every arrangement you decide to include in your big day). I felt so confident in her capabilities and trusted her indefinitely because of all of the resources she provided and the knowledge and passion she has for florals! Native Bloom is going to be my floral recommendation for anyone for so many years to come, I simply could not recommend them enough

Jen and the Native Bloom team were an absolute dream to work with for our wedding florals! Our original date was November 2020, but due to the pandemic, we postponed to November 2022. Jen was very flexible and understanding with moving the date. She created a gorgeous bouquet for me and the flowers on our hexagon arch were absolutely stunning! Our centerpieces were exactly what I was looking for. I couldn't have been happier with the way it all turned out! She really takes the time to understand your style, your budget, and she knows how to bring it all together.

I didn't know where to start with my wedding flowers and Jen was so helpful. She designed a package within my budget and worked with me on choosing the flowers that I liked. I sent Jen some inspiration photos and she delivered better than I could have ever expected. Everyone loved the flowers, she was perfectly on time for delivery, and was very responsive and on top of updating my order.

Jen is amazing! It has been over a year since my wedding, and I still receive compliments about my flowers. Jen did beautiful arrangements for the church, 13 gorgeous bridesmaid's bouquets and a stunning bridal bouquet. She was always quick to respond to my emails and gave me great suggestions. There were no issues with delivery and the flowers arrived on time and lasted all day. If I ever have another event that requires flowers, I will definitely be calling Native Bloom Florist.
