Rebecca Shepherd Floral Design

hrough lots of COVID-related changes of plans. We loved working with her and can't wait to use her for future events and parties!

my wedding. I can’t thank her or recommend her enough!

te our vision, and Rebecca Shepherd came through! She and her team immediately put my mind at ease, providing creative options and working with us on budget, timing, and delivery. My husband and I were blown away with what she and her team were able to produce, and we'd highly recommend her and her team to others!

sign! Rebecca showed up the day of the wedding and put everything together with her team. The flowers were magnificent...all our guests have been raving!! Thank you so much for creating the perfect night for our daughters wedding! Simply the BEST!!!!

y are Rebecca and her team supremely talented and artistic, they were also from start to finish a pleasure to work with, and incredibly organized, responsive, and helpful. In our first consultation Rebecca spent time to really get to know us as a couple and the vibe we wanted for the wedding. She suggested incredible florals and provided direction when we weren't sure what we wanted. She held a sample meeting for us where she spent time discussing every detail of our florals to make sure we were getting exactly what we wanted. She also went above and beyond when - about 2 weeks before our wedding - she realized the branches we had chosen for our centerpieces were starting to bloom differently. To make sure we were still happy with them she took the time to personally go to the floral market and create a new sample for us to come in to see at no charge. I think it is a testament to how dedicated and invested Rebecca is to her work that she personally showed up the day of the wedding to put everything together with her team. This was yet another example of how Rebecca attends to and invests in every detail. I cannot thank Rebecca and her team enough for making my wedding so beautiful and memorable. If you are an NYC bride, you absolutely have to work with them!

true artist and brought a lot of creativity to the process to ensure our flowers were unique and beautiful. All of the arrangements she created for us—from the mantle, to the tables and other display pieces-- were absolutely stunning. We received countless compliments on how incredible the flowers were. We couldn’t have been happier and would highly recommend working with Rebecca.

re and asked me how my wedding planning was coming along. I told her we had a new plan & that we were in need of a new venue. Rebecca mentioned that she did weddings at her flower shop. I sent the info over to my fiancée and we agreed that Rebecca Shepards Floral Design is where we were going to get married. Meghan & I got married on June 10th of 2018. We asked her to create our wedding flowers & with minimal guidance, she created beautiful arrangements that fit perfectly with our vision. Rebecca and her staff set up the space that in a way that was both beautiful & welcoming. We could not have been happier with everything that Rebecca did for us, venue & flowers included.

ided for my wedding were breathtaking. I asked her to buck trends and skip the classic florals in favor of more interesting and rare flowers, and she delivered and then some. My bridal bouquet was downright stunning, with flowers I'd never even heard of before. She really listened to what I wanted, and she offered her experienced advice when it was needed. I could not recommend her enough.

ons you can make for your wedding!

cculents and thistle--something I'd never seen anywhere else and was completely unique. Same with decor, my bridesmaids' bouquets, and the groom/groomsmen boutonnières. Rebecca and her team do gorgeous work and am sure they elevate any wedding they work on. Our only complaint, which unfortunately left a bad taste in our mouths, was that we had discussions with her team about collecting back their vases for the flowers after the event, but that our wish was for our guests take the flowers we paid for. Unfortunately, flowers were taken out of our guests hands, including my mother in law who paid for the flowers, saying that it was our wish that the flowers went to a nearby hospital. I'm guessing this was a miscommunication on the staff's side from another event, but was definitely never discussed about ours and never clarified on-site before removing them from my guests. We were really disappointed by this and never received an apology, so it did rub us wrong.

en we found Rebecca Shepherd Floral Design! Not only were the arrangements we saw online exactly what we were looking for, but they also provide a great value. The arrangements on our wedding day were stunning. Even my husband, who does not care much about flowers, commented on how beautiful they looked. We worked with Andree, who was able to create exactly what we had in mind, despite my rather vague description. She also responded to my emails within 24 hours, and was very helpful during the planning process. Highly recommend!

e was beyond patient with me as we worked through revisions to the proposal & design throughout that time. The flowers were absolutely stunning, beyond what I could have imagined (even having done a mock up for one of the arrangements!)! and we’ve continued to receive compliments from our guests on how beautiful the flowers were as well! I was obsessed with my bouquet and was admiring it even until the next morning. I couldn’t have been happier and would highly recommend, I know I will certainly be looking for excuses to stop by the shop in the future!

scheme very well. At the same time, she brought creativity and a great eye to every arrangement, big or small. The chuppah in particular was a showstopper that served as a centerpiece to our ceremony. It was by far the most stunning that I've ever seen (in life or online) without being too over the top. I highly recommend working with her and her great team.

ext level. It felt ethereal. Additionally, all the accessories she used like the vases, candle holders, etc. were beautiful! We cannot thank Rebecca enough for her absolutely breathtaking floral creations. She has a true talent for what she does. Thank you so much Rebecca for making our wedding feel truly magical!!!

to bring all my ideas to life. Flowers may not be as important to some but for me it was one of the most important aspects of our party. Everything was beautiful. Something that was a must for me was to do a suspension over the dance floor and what Rebecca created was perfect. She has a lot of experience and works closely with other venders. If you do not want your cookie cutter wedding, this florist is for you.

hile adding super fun flair I never would have even thought of. Can not recommend her highly enough!!!

not evaluate a lot of vendors (it's part of the reason I decided to use a planner), and I'm so happy we worked with Rebecca for our event. We held the wedding at a loft space in NYC so there was a lot of blank space and room for creativity. I gave Rebecca somewhat limited direction (lots of greenery, somewhat wild, but still sophisticated) and she KILLED it. Beyond the centerpieces, bouquets and boutonnieres Rebecca constructed a welcome wreath for us as well as an amazing hanging structure for our altar. Both absolutely wowed everyone there. In addition to the flowers Rebecca was great on-site, ensuring we had a plan for things like votives and other decor. I fully trusted her to do her thing and couldn't have been happier with the results. She's just a great person to work with and talk to - lots of fun, but knows her stuff and delivers beautiful work. I'd highly recommend. Thank you so much, Rebecca!!

ists out there to choose from, but if you want someone with the above qualities, pick Rebecca. She has a new eye that is clean, fresh, and beautiful when it comes to flowers. I would recommend using Rebecca for a wedding or any special event. She just designed my wedding a few weeks ago and it turned out to be more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Thank you to Rebecca and her team for making my wedding dream come true!

-working vendor out there. She crafted an online inspiration book for us, answered any and all questions I had within usually 24 hours, and she even spoke with me on the phone numerous times to flesh out my sometimes haphazard ideas with patience and care. At one point she even offered to go to the floral market the morning OF my wedding (IE at 6 AM) to change out the whole set of centerpiece flowers because I had second thoughts about the look of them against the table cloths. This all goes to say she is amazing. She is truly passionate about her work and she got me excited about it too. She went above and beyond for the cocktail centerpieces (and above and beyond what we paid her to do) because she was inspired by her creations. What other vendor does that??? I don't know many people like Rebecca. I know she had us in mind the entire time and she just planned our wedding flowers with precision, care, and focus. People raved about the cocktail and reception centerpieces (I mean RAVED). Walking into my reception was everything I could have imagined and more. My bouquets were stunning, everything was stunning. Seriously, Rebecca is amazing, and I wouldn't recommend any vendor more. If ever I get to throw another party, she's top on my list.

what we were looking for, from the bouquet and table arrangements to the huppah, and assembled a complete package that was related, coherent and on budget. Professional and prepared, Rebecca ensured that we had enough boutonnieres to outlast four active nephews. By working so seamlessly with our other vendors and the venue, Rebecca and her staff allowed us to thoroughly enjoy planning and celebrating our wedding without any drama or distractions. Thank you Rebecca, your work was outstanding!

t I was able to look through and then discuss with her, whittling down the ideas to my eventual floral plan for my wedding. She has an eye for beautiful arrangements, and can be as traditional or as creatively modern as you want. She also has amazing props (birdcages, suitcases, etc.) that can add some character to your event. But, most importantly, she listens to everything you tell her, and makes copious notes. For me, her attention to detail resulted in a lovely surprise at my bridal shower, where my late-grandmother’s favorite flower (a gardenia) was highlighted in a touching arrangement, thanks to a behind-the-scenes conversation between her and my maid-of-honor. And, sitting next to me at my seat at the reception was a beautiful, single gardenia – a touching surprise from Rebecca, letting my grandmother be there in spirit for my wedding day. Thank you Rebecca, for making my wedding beautiful, and for being such a thoughtful person – your touching gift to me was unforgettable.

-- she has a magical sense for texture and color that literally makes you want to gush. I was especially blown away by how Rebecca used her intuition to deal with two tricky situations: 1) I had no idea how to describe what I wanted. I don't think I really knew what I wanted, but I pointed to flowers that I liked and to ones that I didn't, and somehow Rebecca just got it. She compiled an extremely helpful online photo album, and we commented back and forth to get the colors, types of flowers, and composition just right. 2) My mom and I couldn't quite agree on the colors. Mom insisted on purple and orange together, and I was worried it would clash. Rebecca listened carefully to what each of us was looking for, and both my mom and I were blown away with the final result. She perfectly nailed it -- we had rich, lush oranges and purples that created a warm vibe, and it definitely did not clash. In fact, I was completely obsessed with my bouquet....it was so ME, even though Rebecca had only met me once or twice before! All of the flowers were so rich with both bold colors and soft yet crisp textures. 3 months later, I am still jealous of whoever got to take it home. The floral displays, the corsages, the girls' bouquets, the men's flowers -- it was all just exquisite. So beautifully done. Lovely little details like ribbon around the bouquets, held by pins; the tulip leaves hiding the "mechanics" of the gorgeous square-vased table decorations; she even made a gorgeous "tree" decor made from whimsical branches and orchids, which she attached individually by hand. Rebecca is honestly a flower genius, and her flowers were the most important part of the whole celebration. I could just gush forever.
