Poppy Design Co.

tainted the day. However Poppy Design Co florals will forever be my biggest regret of our wedding. Let me first say that I absolutely loved the floral arch they did for us. It was exactly like we discussed and gorgeous. However that was sadly the only aspect that turned out as-discussed. I don’t feel that they captured what I wanted/we discussed for my dinner arrangements (I said I hate roses, and there were several roses front and center) and the “small arrangements” for my cocktail tables were simply a couple short stemmed flowers and twigs in a mason jar. The cocktail tables probably would have looked better with no flowers at all. And mason jars were the last thing I envisioned for my elegant Malibu wedding. Also we discussed cascading florals down my 3-tiered wedding cake, but there were only a couple small flowers sparingly on each layer (one layer had a dark purple/black spider-looking flower/plant — I know it was a fall wedding, but we never discussed ANYTHING like that…) It’s been almost 2 months since our wedding and in that time I’ve tried to reflect on my feelings and ensure there’s no abrupt emotions when writing a review. With my reflections, I’ve realized that Jenny (I never met her daughter, I only ever worked with Jenny) seems very kind but I don’t think we ever connected when going over my vision board. I said several times that I wanted a large bridal bouquet with dimensions, textures and different levels of height. I said I don’t want something too round, but prefer a more oblong. Our contract even said “lusciously adorned bridal bouquet”, however the moment it was handed to me on my wedding day (moments before walking down the aisle), I felt my heart sink because it looked tinier than a basketball and very spherical/round with little dimension or varying heights. There had been specific flowers/plants we discussed being in there that weren’t. But it’s the happiest day of my life (and it really was!) so of course I just had to push my silly disappointment about the flowers aside. But now that I’m looking back, it really was the biggest (and only) regret of my wedding day. I’m sure Poppy Design Co does amazing work for other brides, but it really didn’t work out for me.

uquet that not only matched the mood of the shoot but my dress as well. The blooms were better than I could have imagined. For our wedding, the ladies went about a million (seriously, though) extra miles by not only planning my linens, blooms, candles, place settings, etc. But they also had amazing creative vision and suggested many elements we ended up choosing for our wedding. They even helped us by buying the cigars, pillows, napkin rings, etc. on our behalf for the wedding as we live in another country. They also are really great about checking in with your budget and making sure you're happy with how everything is turning out. Poppy Design Co. was key in creating the wedding of my dreams!
