band had a medical emergency requiring us to push our date back with only about 24 hours’ notice and they didn’t hesitate to adjust and accommodate our situation. TRULY an amazing and generous response, particularly given that they already had all of the flowers in-house for our original date. Even with that drastic change in the plan, I never doubted we were in great hands, or that our flowers would be anything but beautiful. Cannot recommend Robben Florist enough.
We hired Robben Florist for our wedding in December of 2022, and we are so happy that we did! I worked with Kim who was so professional and helpful during the entire planning proce...
ss. I did not have much of a vision of what flowers I wanted to use but an overall idea. Kim took my ideas and elevated it to the next level with her expertise! She made choices for our reception centerpieces and head table that I didn't even know I wanted until I saw it. Our reception room looked STUNNING thanks to the hard work of Kim and Robben Florist. The bouquets were gorgeous and exactly the style and colors I envisioned. They photographed beautifully, and she really listened to what I wanted. They delivered the flowers without my involvement, and also took care of the cleanup of the centerpiece stands after the reception was over which is a big plus for all the brides out there! One less thing to worry about and clean up. I highly recommend Robben Florist for your wedding flower needs! You will be blown away by what they will come up with to bring your vision to life!

The flowers were better than I could have ever imagined, especially after having no clue where to begin! She was able to guide me through the whole process & checked in numerous times to make sure everything was going along with my vision :) Absolutely LOVED working with her & her team - wouldn't have it any other way!

As somebody who does not know much about floral arrange...
ments, Shonda was able to work with me to help determine the best flowers for a December wedding. I had multiple compliments from bridesmaids and guests telling me it was the most beautiful floral arrangement they had ever seen! (I may be biased, but I agreed!)
They worked with our timeline very efficiently and were even able to accommodate a last minute change on the time frame to drop off the flowers.
Can't recommend enough!

stly didn't need to do much decorating as the space is beautiful but when I saw all the flowers it brought tears to my eyes -the flowers gave the room life and made it feel like a wedding! 10/10 recommend scheduling them for your big day!

as what was provided exceeded all expectations. Even better - all of what was put together was reasonably priced, relative to other quotes we received for the same ideas. Thanks again to Shonda and the Robben team! Would recommend.

t become a reality. Because I didn't see the various flowers together before my wedding day, I was a bit nervous. I was planning on getting my flowers dried and wanted to love them. When the bouquets were delivered, instantly I loved them. They were exactly what I envisioned!
I am so grateful that I found Robben Florist. They are professional and can take your vision and make it a reality even if you don't know the various flowers well. I highly recommend them!

Thank you to Shonda and her team for putting together the flowers for our daughter's wedding on Saturday. They were beautiful. Shonda was easy-going and helped us through the proc...
ess, which took two years because of Covid. The only disappointment was the size of the bride's bouquet. It was much smaller than we thought it would be and only slightly larger than the bridesmaids'.
Robben Florist took my vision and made it a reality. Somehow, they were able to take my rambling ideas and turn it into a Pinterest masterpiece. They worked with me on a few last ...
minute changes to center pieces and were so easy to work with.
I highly recommend them as their prices are perfect and the product will not disappoint.
Shonda did so great helping us pick our flowers and really getting our vision down. She and her staff were able to set up the ballroom, and it was absolutely beautiful!
Shonda arranged our wedding floral arrangements and was sweet as can be. We had a lot of changes we had to make when our wedding was postponed due to COVID and she stayed on top of...
all of the changes! I’m not much of a flower gal, but she guided me every step of the way and helped us make some great choices! She’s so very creative and her and Kim did an amazing job. I rented the large “Circle of Love” & it was just STUNNING behind us at both our ceremony and our reception!

Robben Florist did a great job for our wedding. The price was the best around and Shonda was very knowledgable and easy to work with. Highly recommend!
Though the flowers we received were beautiful, they were not what I asked for. I sent pictures with the colours I was looking for, but that was not what we were given. Our primary ...
wedding colour was burgundy, but none of the flowers even had that included with them. Thankfully the colours used in my bouquet still coordinated decently well, but it was still quite disappointing.
For my bridesmaids, I asked for a single longstemmed rose with a dainty, thin neutral coloured ribbon trailing down (again I sent a picture). When we received the flowers, the roses were correct, but they had a bright pink, sparkly, wired ribbon tied in a large bow around them. It looked awful. We removed the ribbon, and thankfully they looked fine, and we were able to make do.
The other negative experience I had with them was how I was never contacted for a follow-up appointment before the wedding (even after having paid the deposit). Finally a couple of weeks before the wedding, I got in contact with them, and received an abrupt response, but was disappointed that they never once reached out to contact me through the whole process.
They were amazing!

Shonda did an amazing job on our flowers! I got a great deal on beautiful handtied bouquets that lasted all day. They were able to accommodate my two deliveries (one to the hotel a...
nd one to the venue). Both were prompt! The greenery was bright and fresh, the succulents added an amazing texture, and the flowers (dahlias and spring roses) smelled and looked vibrant. We also decided to add some flowers to our cake at the confirmation appointment and WOW did that add a lovely pop of color to an already beautiful cake! Everyone only had the nicest words to say about the flowers. Being able to look over the flowers the weekend of was a huge relief for me - it was one less thing that I had to worry about. I would highly recommend working with Shonda and her team - any bride or groom who does is in great hands!
They were able to deliver exactly what I wanted! Everything was very pretty and exactly as I had envisioned.
Shonda did an amazing job with the flowers for our ceremony and reception. We went in for our first appointment completely clueless and came out with a beautiful idea of what our w...

What a fantastic company!! Shonda helped me plan, design, and deliver the most beautiful floral arrangements for my wedding last Friday. Everyone was raving about my flowers throug...
hout the day! I had a very specific vision for my bouquet, the boutonnière, and my bridesmaids bouquets- something natural, cascading, filled with greenery with lots of dimension. They came out even more beautiful that I expected! They were delivered on time and it perfect condition, labeled- that was so helpful since I wasn’t the on distributing them all. The price point was so much more manageable than most other florists I researched. I am SO HAPPY with our choice to use Robben Florist for our wedding- I can’t say enough wonderful things about them! Thank you Shonda for the perfect wedding flowers!!
They listened and provided exactly what I needed for my wedding! Thank you!
I have planned to use silk flowers and make all the flower arrangements on my own. Well 2 months before our wedding day I decided that option was out of the question. It was going ...
to be time consuming and the cost was growing. I contacted Robben Florist and Garden Center on a whim with some hope they would have time to make our special day perfect. I met with Shonda face to face once and went over my budget and what I was looking for. She took the time to go over everything and all the associated cost. I was a little nervous since I wasn't sure what flowers they would use and how the arrangement would look since it was last minute. Shonda and I connected via phone one more time to confirm everything and final cost. I was over the moon thrilled when I walked into our venue the day off to see the flowers were all there and looked beyond PERFECT! Everything that I had pictured in my head was there for our wedding day. I am so pleased with how our flowers turned out and the cost. I would recommend Robben's to anyone in the area.
They did a fantastic job on my bouquet and my girls bouquets! I worked with Shonda and she was easy to work with! Definitely recommend her! My flowers lasted from the time I got th...

I needed an arrangement for my dear brother who had passed very unexpectedly. I have dealt with Robben Florist for years in the past & have ALWAYS been extremely pleased & proud of...
any arrangements they have provided for me. But this was for me. BUT, this was "OVER THE TOP". I had asked Kim if she could provide a coastal themed arrangement, as my brother's FAVORITE place in the world to be was his vacation home on Siesta Key. What she came up with was absolutely STUNNING !!! It stopped everyone - dead in their tracks ! The colors were those of the sea, the choice of flowers, like none I had ever seen before. And the blue vase with the nautical rope handle - it all fit like a glove.
She set the vase in a coastal style tray so that I could add some of the snow white sand & shells to the arrangement, from the beach my brother loved so much. It was, without a doubt, a one of a kind, exquisite, & yet, so VERY personal. That is the norm... at ROBBEN FLORIST !!!!!
She was so enthusiastic! She was constantly updating me on the status of the flowers. She even threw in some magnolia flowers that I dropped off a day before the wedding that I h...
ad picked from my yard. Such a wonderful surprise1
Pros:
- Shonda took a lot of time to meet with us and discuss our flowers. When I watned to make some last minute changes, she was on board. I felt like she really understood my vi...
sion. It was also much more reasonably priced than others I had seen.
- The centerpieces were very nice and the head table, ceremony flowers, and entrance table flowers were all Perfect! My bouquet was also georgous!
Cons:
- On the day of, the flowers were late, so that was pretty frustrating because we had to wait for pictures and it caused the dad's to miss helping my husband get dressed/ tie his tie because they had to help set up.
- The girls bouquets were supposed to be cream hydrangas with lots of greenery, but they were all green (not at maturity yet). They also died very quickly and where quite wilty for the ceremony.
- The centerpieces were not as big and flowy as I was hoping.
I used Robben Florist and my flowers came out better than I pictured!! I didn't really know exactly what kind of flowers I wanted but I told Kim what I was thinking and she came up...

product was more beautiful than I could have imagined! Such great quality and care is taken with your requests and with your flowers. The boutonnieres were perfect, the corsages were perfect, the bridesmaids bouquets were perfect, and my bridal bouquet was an absolute dream come true. I was beyond pleased with my choice to use Robben Florist for my wedding flowers -- I am sure you will be too!
Robben Florist did our wedding day flowers and they were beautiful! It was hard to imagine how they would look during our meetings because only a few were placed side by side, but ...
I was so happy when they arrived on the wedding day! They turned out better than I imagined them in my mind, and I loved my bouquet so much I am now having them frozen and preserved for me to keep forever!
Kim and the girls did an amazing job! I love my flowers. The flowers looked amazing against my bridesmaids dresses! They made the process simple. Everything was beautiful.
We were blown away with how beautiful our flowers were for our wedding - the staff was so great meeting with us and helping us create a beautiful vision for our big day! They truly...
went above and beyond - even making a second trip in a level 2 snow emergency just to deliver a missing piece - found out later it took them almost 5 hours to get back because of the roads! We couldn't have been happier with how beautiful everything was!
Overall the flowers were beautiful! I was kind of disappointed because my bouquet fell apart during the ceremony/ reception. Other than that they were wonderful to work with and ea...
