Shana Vaughn Designs

our flowers and I received so many compliments on them! I am literally obsessed with how pretty they were!!

rything covered. I just got my wedding photos back and they are so amazing. It was a perfect wedding and I am so thrilled to have her beautiful flowers and decorations in my wedding album for years to come. Her flowers and decorations will give you the confidence that your wedding will be perfect and your guests will feel like they are at a 5 star event and RAVE about it for years to come. I recommend to any bride to hire Shana as their florist. It will help you along the way in so many aspects because no one in Kansas City knows more about weddings than her. She is what you need to have a hassle free perfect wedding.

ibe I was going for and she ran with it. She gave us our initial quote and explained exactly what all we would receive for the quoted price - she explained we could easily cut back if we wanted the price to be lower which I thought was wonderful. We actually ended up keeping pretty much everything she suggested and it was so perfect. We used her for everything- all decorations and floral as well. Our flowers turned out absolutely stunning and everyone commented all night on how beautiful the space was and how pretty everything was. Shana was so kind; A genuinely great person and I truly believe that is not just because I’m a client - she was so helpful and I’m so glad we trusted her. You really do get what you pay for - highly recommend! Thanks Shana!!!

d ALL the decor for my reception as well. While I knew exactly what was going to at the reception, I did not see it set up in the space prior to our grand entrance. When I finally walked into the event space I was blown away. IT WAS GORGEOUS! She totally nailed the look I was going for and had the space looking like something out of a wedding magazine. I would recommend Shana for the couple who has an idea of what they want for decor and flowers but (1) doesn't know how or where to get decor (2) doesn't want to buy it all and have to keep it after (3) doesn't want to set up and take it down themselves the day of the wedding. Shana really is all-inclusive. She set everything up and took it all down. She was truly excellent! Thanks Shana, for helping our wedding day to be a dream come true!

2 meetings with Shana, 1 to go over ideas, and the next to get a quote. Both times she was attentive and asked lots of questions, but it was slightly apparent that she's a bit of a perfectionist and wants things HER way, even though it may not be her wedding. We brushed it off and waited until we got her quote...which was $7,000. Maybe some people are willing to pay that for wedding flowers, but that is WAY more than our floral budget, as well as almost every other one I've heard from people I know getting married recently. She did say that it was a very extravagant plan and could be reduced and cut back. So, we decided on things we could live without and told her what we would still like to get from her. After this, she stopped responding to all communication. One time she said she had a "big wedding" and would get back to us. After 2 check-in emails over the next 2 weeks went unanswered, we felt that she simply was ditching us in hopes to land a bigger wedding on our date. So be it, but it is woefully unprofessional to not even give us the courtesy of an email saying "I'm sorry but I don't think we are a match. Thank you for your time." In the end we are glad we did not go with her. We have started to hear bad things about her business after relating our experience to people around town, and apparently she can be very difficult to work with and cause drama in weddings when she doesn't get her way. If you can put up with that, you will probably get some beautiful flowers. But we found someone else who is letting us choose what we want and is giving us something beautiful that is within our budget :)

m the linens to the candelabras and centerpieces, and most importantly the most fabulous bouquets I have ever seen, Shana executed on every level! Shana was incredibly easy to work with as well and offered up suggestions to many items I hadn't thought of or had slipped my mind through all of the planning craziness. We are so grateful for Shana and her team who created a truly beautiful day for us!

. Our private room/event space personnel all stated that our decor was the best they had ever seen. She even had several fresh floral bouquets at the reception that family member or friends could take home as a favor. You will have zero worries about your flowers if you go with Shana!

nd table cloths for our venue. She went above and beyond. Thank you Shana!

aking decor and floral a true form of art.

ments, bouquets, etc, she is also amazing with design and ensured that my wedding was going to come together perfectly. She sits down with you and plans through every detail - she has samples in her shop of everything from ribbons, tablecloths, napkins, centerpiece options, and more so that we could actually visualize her plan. She is the one person we hired for the wedding that never once made me question a thing and I just knew she would make sure the design and flowers were flawless - and they were!!! I trusted all of her ideas and plans and was in awe at the beauty she came up with for our wedding. I also quickly want to mention that she has an in-house graphic designer - Mary-Catherine with Blissful Prints - whom we also used for our invitations, programs, menus, and all other paper needs who is creative and fantastic as well. They worked together to coordinate everything as far as the design went and I could not have been more pleased with the job that they did :)

she went above and beyond to ensure that it was everything plus MORE! Shana took every worry out of my day! Despite a venue change within 24 hours of the ceremony, she made sure that everything was PERFECT! Our ceremony was amazing and our reception was awe-inspiring! Shana is more than a florist! She is a designer...a coordinator...a person with attention to every detail...a reassuring presence...a life saver! There is no way that I could imagine our special wedding day without her! Shana has a talent that is beyond words!

angements, cake flowers, mantle pieces, boutonnieres, and Matron of Honor bouquet were true masterpieces. We had the opportunity to meet a number of florists and your vision and passion for making our day memorable stood head and shoulders above the rest. Our planning sessions were a breeze and we really enjoyed working with you throughout the process from start to finish. Thank you for making our special day unforgettable, you will always have a special place in our hearts.

rals were exceptional, the décor was top of the line and many of the other extras just made it a perfect evening. This vendor was great to work with and I never once had to stress her part in the wedding. Thank you to Shana and crew!!!!! Dawn Jochim Wedding date: 11/28/15

turn out any better than it did and am extremely happy with her services. Using Shana was one of the best decisions we made during the wedding process. She is extremely talented in the work she does and I can’t even count all the compliments we received on how gorgeous it turned out. I showed her a few pinterest pictures and she brought my dream wedding to life. She is very accommodating to your budget and willing to make suggestions on areas to cut costs if needed. She set up and took down all the ceremony and reception decorations and flowers – this alone was worth every penny to not worry about decorating the night before and/or day of the wedding! I would highly recommend using Shana for your wedding flowers and décor. She eliminated wedding stress by making the planning process so easy and I knew without a doubt it would turn out amazing, and it did!

ept digging herself into a deeper hole. The biggest issue here is how she was treating her client. Shes not a cheery person to do business with. Her floral arrangements ect are great if you can deal with the improper way that she runs her business. She was blowing out candles at the event before it was even over in an attempt to rush people out the door early. I'm embarrassed I represented her for the event. I was embarrassed for her because of the way she acted.

ys, candles, candle holders, etc. from her. She went above and beyond by volunteering to set up our dessert buffet, which took all that time/stress off our shoulders. The flowers and arrangements were amazing! When we found that we were over budget, she worked with us to make changes. She even spent extra time getting us a better price on all our table linens. Shana was a true professional throughout!! She took care of decorating the chapel and reception site, so we could just relax and enjoy getting ready for the wedding. It was especially nice to have her return at the end of the night to take care of taking the decorations and flowers "down". Thank you, Shana!!

d picked up everything the same night. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous. I am positive I will use her for other events. :)

ded her own expertise and design skills, and decorated the venue as well as provided the flowers for the wedding. At all three events, the brides and their families, as well as everyone in attendance raved on and on at how beautiful everything was. Shana is very personable, full of energy, extremely dependable, and is a delight to work with. I would highly recommend her for any event.

iries promptly, which set her apart from other florists we considered. We would be happy to recommend Shana to other engaged couples.
