Party Blooms

pricing in the area. She is competitive on price because she runs the business out of her lovely home office. From our first meeting there, throughout the entire planning process, Lorie offered her expert advice and kept detailed notes of my vision. I was aiming to recreate my mother's Floridian, tropical, bridal bouquet and use that as inspiration for the rest of the reception decor, bridesmaid bouquets, etc. Upon showing Lorie sketches of what I was envisioning - she warned me it wouldn't look like anything she had done before / wasn't the typical Charlotte bride. She created a test run reception center piece and it was perfect. Months passed between that initial meeting and the wedding itself. I was worried that perhaps my sketches and unique vision would get lost in the wedding season chaos, but have no fear Lorie's day of set up was EXACTLY AS PLANNED! Everything was there with plenty of time for photos before hand and my bridal bouquet was to die for. Thank you so much Lorie for everything!

azing bouquets for such a great price. I am not very well versed in flowers, and I didn't have a great grasps on what I wanted. Lorie helped me with my colors, designs, and final choices! She even met with us twice because I changed the wedding theme! The hit of the wedding was my dog's flower collar! There is no need to keep shopping! Booked Lorie ASAP!

r. She did a fantastic job in designing the arbor flowers and they matched perfectly with all of the other decorations. Communication was a little spotty in terms of details about flower delivery and pick up.

was just beautiful.

day!

deas and she ran with it. I felt confident from our meeting that she understood what look I was going for and had everything under control. And she did. The flowers were GORGEOUS, they were exactly as requested, and she was so easy and professional to work with! From my perspective - the perfect vendor!

and pleasant to work with. Would recommend again and again!

an we had expected. The Party Blooms team was wonderful to work with from start to finish and we are so grateful for their help! We would absolutely recommend them to others. Thanks!

dreams! Absolutely incredible, gorgeous flowers, corsages and boutonnières. Communication from Lorie was superb. Flowers delivered on time and labeled perfectly. Thank you so much!!

2018 wedding in Cornelius, NC. We met well over a year before the big day and after some conversation and pictures, Lorie executed my floral vision perfectly! She was easy to work with, low key and flexible. Also, excellent value! I would use her again for future floral arrangements.

of her previous work, and was so helpful in making suggestions and giving advice. Our bouquets and centerpieces were absolutely stunning and lasted for days!!! She took a lot of stress off of me in selecting the flowers for the arrangements. She is the best!!

lowers! Lori was able to see my vision for the day, teach me about my floral options with regard to the time of year of my wedding, and flawlessly executed everything I had ever imagined for the day. I would 100% recommend Lori.

s before the wedding, I was blown away! I didn't know how much I cared about the flowers until that very moment. It's a feeling I'll never forget!

rs soley on budget and availability. I found Party Blooms on Weddingwire and met with Lorie a a few months before my Sept wedding. She's a local entreprenuer and is no frills which means no overhead and reasonable pricing. I asked for simple flowers (sent her a few Pinterest pics) in all white - and deferred to Lorie on what was in season and in my price range. She provided a few different options, and that was that. Ya know what I really appreciated? I had seen a photo of my venue with an aisle runner and rose petals, she really discouraged me from the aisle runner chance it wouldn't lay flat in the wind. It would have been easy for her to take my money but she didn't, that's a good vendor! On day of, she showed up prompt to deliver bouquets/corsages/bouts to hotel (all labeled) and then delivered centerpieces to the venue. I was very happy with the final product and her overall service, recommend!

to spend. I had my initial call with Lori and she sent me a quote for everything I wanted and it was extremely affordable and in the range of what I wanted to spend. On the day of the wedding, everything came out beautifully! She created all bouquets, boutonnieres, ceremony arrangements and table centerpieces and they were all exactly how I had envisioned. She really provided an exceptional service for a great value! Highly recommend!

In fact, I only did bouquets, boutineers, wristlets, greenery on the gazebo we got married in, and rose petals down either side of the aisle. I believe I paid over $600 in total. I did babies breath and mother of pearl blush roses. I thought everything looked beautiful.

, but my bridesmaids bouquet were far from acceptable. I didn't them to be perfect but when they came in and everyone (including my coordinator) said they looked horrible, my MOH called her and asked her to fix them. She argued and blamed them not looking good on me, the bride. Now I will give her the benefit of the doubt and guess she was stressed out but I find it unacceptable for her to blame the bride for her choice of flowers. I am not a flower expert but when I requested these flowers to make my bridesmaid bouquets, she did not tell me it would look bad or suggest an alternative option SO for them to come in terrible looking is unacceptable. The flowers were not only partially dead, but the 'yellow" flower was orange....it could not even be argued to be a shade of yellow. I do feel it is important to add that I consulted multiple florist before selecting my flowers and finalizing them with Party Blooms, so a "poor selection' of flowers, can't be argued either. She did come back to fix them but was clearly not happy about it and it was after she said she couldn't and my brothers were sent to go buy over $200 worth of flowers at Harris Teeter so we could fix them ourselves. Again, my bridal bouquet was great but overall, the bridesmaid bouquets were one thing I wish I did not have to deal with on my wedding day and were the only negative experience I had that day.

of the better priced florists as well. I met with her to go over my vision and without pictures that she had: I showed her a few pics of what I was thinking and it came out EXACTLY HOW I WANTED IT!! I trusted her and I am glad that I did. If in doubt or unsure of a hint she will help and she is not trying to buckle and dime you. Anyways, an amanzing lady and company. Very helpful and prompt.

recommend!

was professional, always answering emails or phone calls. On the day of the wedding she arrived on time and was able to do her thing. When my husband and I saw all the flowers we were truly amazed. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Lori!

I got so many compliments on them. I am so thrilled! Thanks Lori.

experienced and available to answer questions we had along the way. We chose her based on reviews and an introductory phone call where we discussed our vision and budget for the day. She knew exactly what we were looking for - classic and understated. Even if I wasn't sure of a floral combination, she would provide suggestions via phone and pictures via e-mail to help bring our vision to life. And believe me, it was not easy settling on florals but she made the process enjoyable. She was very patient with our last-minute (I'm talking 2-3 weeks before the wedding!) requests to help us save money with more affordable arrangements. Lorie runs a successful business from her house and I was thankful for not having to deal with the politics and back-and-forth of working with a larger company. She was even able to deliver the flowers herself and pick up the vases the next day. What a pro! Lorie, thank you so much for all of your help!

uets! Her pricing is very affordable and her creativity will make your day gorgeous. Don't try to do this on your own, go with Party Blooms, you won't regret it!

ed them to pop and be beautiful! Lorie did exactly that! The bridesmaid held beautiful rose bouquets, along with my beautiful red roses and white cali lilies and our bridesmen had red rose boutonnieres. But we had a twist! And we wanted to add adorable lego mini figure heroes to the boutonnieres. Lorie was so accommodating and volunteered to put those together for us and they were perfect! We also had rose petals on our tables for the reception and Lorie arrived early to help setup those flowers. She did an amazing job and had such an affordable price. We were very lucky to find her and would recommend her to everyone!!

e. The bouts were the perfect color and my bridesmaids bouquets were bright and the perfect shades of the colors I wanted for an August wedding (my mom was concerned that I wanted colors that were too dark for a late summer wedding). The reception flowers were great. I thought I wanted white flowers on my cake, but the bridesmaid colors were used instead. Which just popped against our white-on-white cake and made beautiful pictures. I would have never thought about doing it. But she definitely has an eye for things. Great to work with and give me lots of options of different flowers that I hadn't thought of.

ty! Even after I changed my mind on details two weeks before the event, she was able to rearrange things and really come to my rescue with bouquets and centerpieces even better than I imagined. We received several compliments on the centerpieces and decor at the reception; everything was truly lovely! I highly recommend Lorie for any of your florist needs!

er to any bride.

ers did just that and Party Blooms captured exactly what was I looking for.

ieces I was blown away by! I expected a few bunches of flowers but once I walked in our reception room I noticed each table had a large arrangements that many guests gave us lots of compliments about. Party Blooms was a great to work with and a great value for the quality of flowers you recieve.

on. We set out by telling Lori the budget we had to stick to, and what we were looking for. She was familiar with the venue and knew what she was working with. Lori offered numerous alternatives for us to choose from, and thought of many creative ideas to decorate the dinner tables while staying under budget. We gave Lori swatches of our wedding colors, and she did a great job matching floral arrangements to them. We wanted to a variety of arrangments on the tables, rather than 12 identical ones. Lori did a great job making three different types and spreading them throughout the room. It all looked great and was done at a price that was very affordable. I would also recommend paying the pickup charge so that you don’t have to return the vases yourself. The day after the wedding was chaotic, and having Lori come get the vases from hotel was very convenient. We were very happy with Party Blooms and would recommend them to our friends.

ould recommend them to anyone who needs a florist!

s that were dynamic but stayed within my budget. The day of the wedding, Lorie and her teamed dropped off the bouquets and boutineers to my hotel room. Now that's service. The church was nicely decorated. Lorie created signature centerpieces for my wedding which were gorgeous and accented my reception venue perfectly. I highly recommend her for brides with any budget.

heat and looked nice in all my photos. The pricing was also affordable.

rovided the table decorations for the reception - using unique glasses and crystal stones that reflected the candle light beautifully.

ding it was exactly what I had asked for.

e and through e-mail to get quotes together and she was much more reasonable than the other florists I met with so we decided to go with her. I changed my idea about 3 weeks before the wedding and she was totally cool with it. I never actually *met* Lori at the wedding, as I was in hair/make-up when she dropped flowers off at the venue, but everything looked beautiful from personal flowers to the centerpieces and I could not have asked for anything more. She did exactly what I had asked for. A little bit difficult to get an appointment with, but I was always last minute in trying to do so!

r pricing was a great value compared to many other florists in the Charlotte area!
