Working with Christine was one of my favorite aspects of planning our wedding. She made my floral dreams come true! Working with someone so passionate and knowledgeable about flowers was such a pleasure! The arrangements were stunning. I wanted each arrangement to be a structural design piece and she did exactly that! I can't thank Christine and her team enough for making the most beautiful pieces for our wedding!

Working with Christine for our wedding florals was amazing! She got our vision immediately and was super responsive and helpful with substitutions based on what was available for the season, and our budget. The florals came out stunning and better than we could’ve dreamed!

I genuinely cannot say enough good things about Christine & her team at Peony Designs Studio.
From our very first interaction via email, she responded extremely fast and was able to set up an in person meeting very quickly. At our first meeting, she made me feel SO much better about wedding planning. She pulled up my pinterest board and began pulling out samples that matched my vision to a T. From there on out, she was able to work with my budget and was extremely accommodating.
On my wedding day, the first time I cried that day was when I saw my flowers. They were better than my pinterest board or anything I could have dreamed up. They were truly perfection! I couldn't have asked for a better florist & now a friend! Christine is so so sweet and a kind, genuine person. Hiring Peony Designs Studio for my wedding was one of the best decisions I made. I will continue to use her to my future events!

When we started looking into wedding vendors, we visited a couple of wedding shows and every florist we talked to blew us off. Then we met with Christine from Peony Design Studio and at the show she pulled us aside and asked us to explain what we might want for our wedding. My wife is Samoan and we live in New York and were getting married in the fall so we wanted to combine some of those tropical flowers with the deep fall colors of New York. Christine listened to us and didn’t interrupt and when we were done she said that it sounded amazing and she thought she could do it.
We met with Christine a little while later and she broke down every part of the reception and ceremony, asking our opinions on color, flower, and décor. She showed us examples and explained anything we didn’t understand. After that meeting, we were sold. The care and level of detail she showed proved this to be a passion and the work she and her team did was impressive.
The ceremony and the reception were a dream. Peony Design took our vision and turned it into a reality and then expanded on it 10 times over. The level of detail was incredible, the colors were perfect, and the décor filled and complimented the space beautifully. Everyone at the wedding was blown away. They couldn’t believe how beautiful everything was. Even the Venue complimented the work and how it brought so much complimentary life to the amazing space. We could not be happier with the work Peony Design did and how kind and easy to work with everyone was throughout the entire process.

Christine was so nice to work with and the flowers she brought for my wedding were beyond gorgeous, she took my inspiration photos and brought them to life.
The energy that she had about making the pieces and the way they turned out I recommend anyone who is in need of flowers to go to her.

We were referred to Peony Design from a friend who also used them. Christine was so knowledgeable and the flowers were absolutely STUNNING!!! Our photographers were not from the area and they even made a point to tell us how beautiful the flowers were. None of the flowers had any wilted marks on them at all and you could tell they were taken care of. Peony Design were also very reasonable priced. Considering all of the arrangements and different placements for the flowers I felt the price was appropriate.
Also, when we initially met with Christine I was pregnant and every time I spoke with her after our initial meeting she always asked how our baby was doing. It was very warming that she remembered that about us. 10/10 for me!!

Let me start by saying I am not the creative type. I’m not good at designing things and knowing what should go where. If you’re like me, hire Peony Designs. Christine was an absolute delight through this whole process. From the first meeting of sharing my vision boards (which she nicely explained was all over the place) to finalizing all the details and helping me choose a correct ribbon color. All of our items were set up and beautifully done by the time we arrived at the venue. She even went out of the way to drop off bouquets at our hotel. I have no complaints about Christine and Peony Designs. Strongly recommend.

Christine at Peony Design was a delight to work with! We found Peony Design through our venue and we wanted all fall colors for our flowers including pumpkins. Christine came back with a beautiful and thoughtful plan for us making sure no detail was missed. The flowers, centerpieces, church décor, sweetheart table and all other details looked incredible and the fall colors with the pumpkins looked beyond gorgeous. I am so happy we used Peony Design, thank you so much!

Christine took my wedding vision and turned it into a reality! She was incredibly responsive, easy to work with and fit well within my budget. My bridal bouquet and all of the other flowers (centerpieces, bar pieces, altar flowers, etc.) all exceeded my expectations and made our wedding day that much more special. I cannot say enough good things about her and her team—they were on time, professional, and helped ensure our wedding day was incredibly memorable. I would 100% work with them again and recommend them to any other couples in the Hudson Valley!

Christina at Peony Design Studio was amazing! She understood our vision for the flowers and general tone of the wedding immediately, and the moment we started throwing colors and ideas at her, she already began building out perfect designs. Her floral arrangements were beautiful and she made sure that all the smallest details were taken care of. She was prompt, professional, and truly talented in her field.
Thank you Christina for helping make our wedding perfect!

I thought flowers were just the fluff to fill the space when it came to weddings. When we finally entered the wedding venue and saw all the flower arrangements, it felt like our wedding became a different reality. Suddenly we were the main characters in a fairy tale surrounded by bursts of colors and floral scents. I have a new appreciation of flowers as an art form and a foundation for setting the overall mood of an event. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect arrangement from the flowers in the background to my very own bouquet. Peony Designs Studio went above and beyond to create an enchanting display for our special day.

Christine was absolutely wonderful! She is so sweet and she listened to what ideas I had and helped me figure out what I needed. I loved my flowers and bouquets she made! And she even had no problem making some last minute flower crowns for my junior bridesmaids which also came out beautifully. Thank you Christine for the beautiful flowers for my wedding!

Loved working with Christine and Peony Design Studio. We had our plans change and Christine kept our original idea of incorporating books as our centerpieces. We went from having a large (400 guests) in May 2020 to a small wedding in Oct 2020 and Christine was able to design with beauty.

Christine and Peony Design Studio was such a pleasure to work with. She made my vision become a reality and it exceeded my expectations. Christine was flexible and so patient as we worked through a few different options to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. She was very understanding with changes that were made due to the pandemic. She is so passionate about what she does and you could really feel her excitement and happiness as she brought everything to life.

Working with Christine was effortless. She instantly saw my vision for a summer sunflower wedding. The flowers were beautiful! Her attention to detail was perfect. As a COVID bride I had to settle for a smaller ceremony but will have a large reception this March. I can’t wait to plan a winter floral design with her in the New Year.

Christine and her team were absolutely amazing! I met with more than 7 florists before making my decision and it was definitely an easy one after meeting with peony design. From the moment we first met to go over what I wanted my bridal bouquets to look like Christine was such a pleasure to work with! She made the process painless and a breeze. The day of my wedding she brought my flowers to the hotel we were getting ready at and I was absolutely blown away, the girls bouquets and mine were stunning and more perfect then I could have imagined. Thank you so sooo much for making my wedding flower dreams come true!!

Christine did my flowers for my wedding last month - simply stunning. She was able to combine my love of all sorts of greenery with a tropical vibe (a nod to my Floridian roots) across our centerpieces, bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, and altar decor. She was always prompt to answer any questions during the planning process, very up front with pricing, and found ways to stretch my flower budget further to make a big impact on our special day. In addition, it ended up raining on our outdoor wedding ceremony - Christine acted quickly and rearranged all the floral pieces inside the tent beautifully. My family and bridesmaids raved about her floral arranging skills too - I will definitely be recommending her to my engaged friends!

Peony Designs came highly recommended to me by an old friend who also used Christine and her team for her wedding a few years ago. From our initial one hour meeting, Christine and her husband totally understood my vision! She had forewarned me that due to her busy season of July/August, it would be about 1 month until I received her proposal and estimate. Once I did receive it (which was on time), I was amazed at the amount of work and detail Christine puts into just providing a quote and plan. No wonder she needed the time! I received a menu of options that both met my budget and slightly exceeded it, so I was able to understand and review every part of my wedding and what it cost. Christine was fleixible in revising certain aspects of the plan to edit some of my original ideas. Let’s just say, I had inquired with three other florists who did not meet my budget nor expectations, and did not provide the slightest attention to my wedding as much as Christine did.
On our wedding day (May 31, 2019), I was stunned! Our wedding flowers were beautiful, and I was so happy with the way everything turned out! The flower arch over the gondola for our ceremony far exceeded my expectations, and looked so beautiful and lush as we got married underneath it. My bouquet, and everything was simply gorgeous. Christine and her team worked so hard that day - throughout the day I remember seeing them on and off still working away at all the little details. Peony Designs truly understood our vision and budget, and I'm so thankful for that. We cannot thank you enough for making our dreams a reality on the best day of our lives!

Christine the owner of Peoney Design took our special ideas and brought them to life!
After meeting Christine at a bridal show, I realized her vendor table very much emulated my expectations of bridal floral arrangements. During our meeting with Christine, I came to her with lots of ideas for the types of flowers and greenery I had envisioned she welcomed every idea with enthusiasm and a warm smile. Christine discussed which flowers and greenery would be available to me during the season we got married in and made sure to bring to fruition everything we discussed without any exceptions! Christine was a dream to work with and made the process seamless!

My wedding has been over for just over a week and I’m still swooning over the bouquets scattered around my house. Christine was nothing short of amazing. From our initial planning meeting, to our back and forth emails, to the big day, she was so incredibly kind, helpful and thoughtful. She brought both mine and my husband’s vision to light by incorporating beer growlers and random vases to create truly unique and stunning centerpieces. Absolutely book Peony!

Christine and her team were fantastic! We brought our idea to several florists and received half-hearted reactions. Christine grabbed it by the horns and brought her own creative twist to both the design and execution!
She remained a fair and honest partner throughout the process, bringing us ideas and being honest when something would add cost without adding to the end product.
Her pricing was extremely competitive, and she brought a lot of value, thought, and insight into everything we did.
Critically, she was able to step in with a last minute solution to an unexpected problem day-of the wedding.
All of it was done with grace, poise, and humor. We cannot recommend her enough!

Christine is incredible and really knows how to take an a vision and make it a reality. I know absolutely nothing about flowers. She turned my inspiration photos into the most beautiful floral arrangements. The bouquets were GORGEOUS. The centerpieces were so perfect. They looked amazing on the tables! I'm just so sad that my bouquet won't stay perfect forever because it was seriously so beautiful. She accomodated my budget without sacrificing the vision I had in my head. I wish we could use her again!

I had the best experience working with Christine! She is an expert in her field and was so professional and warm when replying to my questions and giving her suggestions. We arrived to our meeting at my venue with a vision board and samples which I LOVED! Really brought everything together for me. Our 4/28/18 wedding was in the tent at the Grandview and our flowers, centerpieces, and arbor decorations were exactly as described and more beautiful than I could’ve ever imagined in person. She also arrived to our hotel early, with everything labeled and ready to go. I would recommend her to everyone all day long. Thanks again!!!

I absolutely love Christine and her work!!!!! She was amazing throughout the whole wedding process. Christine was understanding when I had to move the wedding date unexpectedly. She came with a vision board and discuss every last detail with my fiancé and I. Peony Design Studio provided all decor for my ceremony, centerpieces for my tables and head table, and all the bouquets and boutonnières. All were beautifully done. She exceeded all expectations I had envisioned for my wedding and truly helped me design my vision. Christine listened to what I wanted and delivered beyond what I had expected. She is also very well with responding to any questions and is very professional and one of the nicest people you will meet. I truly enjoyed working with her!!!

I highly recommend that couples reach out to Peony Design and learn more about what they can offer. I connected with Christine, who took her time to discuss the options and possibilities with me, and to understand and see what we were envisioning for our day. We ultimately went in another direction as we went with a family friend, however I can certainly recommend that Peony Design will not disappoint. Christine went above and beyond my expectations!
