Simplicity Floral nailed my wedding day vision. Nikki and her team are great to work with and reliable, which was the biggest thing for me. Sticking within my budget and adjusting my florals accordingly, I would recommend her to anyone for a wedding or event.
She did florals all year round at a country club I worked at, which is where I made the initial connection; her work is versatile and worth every penny. I have gained a friend for life!
Nikki and her team are nothing less than the BEST in the business. From the planning process to the day-of, they listened to my questions, were extremely responsive and took my vision and ran with it! Wouldn’t have been the wedding of my dreams without them.
Nikki and her team are hands down amazing! Simplicity Floral exceeded mine and my husbands expectations for our wedding floral. EVERYONE commented on how beautiful the flowers were. We can't thank Simplicity Floral enough for everything.
Any questions?
Nikki has a beautiful eye for flowers. I sent her pictures and design ideas and she made my vision come to life.
Nikki came through at the last minute for our wedding, she listened to my ideas for our outdoor 'rustic' South Indian wedding and turned them into reality and the effect was lovely. What I appreciated most was her prompt professional feedback, quick turn-around of a detailed invoice with images and a price breakdown, this really helped me pick and choose what to let go and what to keep so I could stay in budget.
Calling all brides that want to absolutely LOVE their florals on their wedding day -- please look no further than the incredible Simplicity Floral team. I truly don't think I can put into words how incredible Nikki and Grace were throughout the entire wedding planning process. From ensuring that my floral vision came to life to sending me sneak peeks of the florals as they came in, I feel so grateful to have worked with such truly caring and wonderful people (not to mention, the florals on our wedding day were breathtaking). I could not recommend the Simplicity Floral team enough - they provide top level customer service and their floral vision is one-of-a-kind. Booking Simplicity Floral will be the best vendor decision you make, guaranteed. THANK YOU to this incredible team!
Definitely have Simplicity do your wedding! Nikki is wonderful to work with and delivers exactly what you want. The flowers and greenery were stunning.
Nikki was so sweet and so easy to work with! She went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations- especially for the day of the wedding! The small details of greenery in the corners of the room, on the bar, or on the head table for extra decor was such a nice touch & did not go unnoticed! Would definitely recommend working with Nikki at Simplicity Floral & Event Design!
Nikki and her team were AMAZING. We never got to meet in person before the wedding but my mom and I talked with her on the phone and hit it off right away. She is fun, laid-back, mindful, and I really felt like we got a long. She heard my thoughts and helped me navigate what I wanted because I didn't know much about flowers. The day of the wedding, the flowers were the most gorgeous surprise. I knew her work would be good - but I had no idea how stunning they actually would. The ceremony had a romantic, draping arc of flowers - even my brother-in-law said "damn those are good." The bouquets were perfect for the women, and the men's boutonnieres were autumn with a leaf and small flower. EVERYONE was happy. She captured my autumn romantic look perfectly with blushes, oranges, rust. The table arrangements and tapered candles. To top it off, we had hoop chandeliers with greenery and lights hanging. It was truly all amazing.
Fantastic...good communication....beautiful flowers and flexible
Simplicity floral did a fantastic job with my bouquets! When Nikki and I had our consultant meeting and I described to her the colors I wanted she knew exactly what florals and greenery to use to make the bouquets as beautiful as can be! She also provided us greenery for centerpieces and they turned out amazing. Docking one star just because I had mentioned I wanted my bouquet and my bridesmaids bouquets to be very large m; however, my bridesmaids bouquets were on the small end of the scale. Still beautiful, just a little smaller than I had envisioned. For the price, I just had expected them to be a tad bushier. Honestly, my experience with simplicity floral was overall extremely positive and I cherish the photos I have of my florals.
Extremely great to work with! Nikki captured my day perfectly with the flowers. She kept them simple yet elegant just like I wanted. In fact, it was BETTER than I could have imagined. The arrival and clean up was so effortless it was one thing I didn't have to worry about at all the day of.
Nikki did such an amazing job! I did not know anything about flowers before my wedding, but she went above and beyond and brought my vision to life! Everyone was talking about how much they loved my flowers, even the photographers couldn't get over how beautiful they were! I am getting a painting of my bouquet, because I loved it so much! I absolutely LOVED everything about the flowers and the centerpiece designs! I would definitely recommend Simplicity to everyone.
NIKKI IS AMAZING. We hired Nikki and her team for our wedding on 10/22 and I could not possibly recommend her more. She took all of my inspo and brought my vision to life. I’m in the process of drying and preserving my bouquet so I can stare at it forever.
Nikki was AMAZING! Not only was her work absolutely stunning, but she was so helpful with my day. She offered advice and perspective when I was unsure about things. She was also incredibly friendly and kind. Absolutely wonderful.
Nikki is phenomenal and you can tell she loves what she does! We spoke over the phone for planning during all this fun COVID timing, and she absolutely nailed the bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, and the arbor centerpiece! She even got some flowers that we didn't think would be in season, and I was so delighted to see them in my bouquet when she dropped everything off. One of my honorary bridesmaids couldn't make it to the wedding from out of state, so Nikki worked with me to ship her a dried flower corsage to make her feel part of the day. She went above and beyond to make our day look and feel even more beautiful!

Thank you for the sweet words Erika, and for trusting us on your wedding day! You were a pleasure to work with and I loved doing something a little different for your bridesmaid that was unable to attend, you're so sweet!
Nikki is the best! With the coronavirus, I had to change my venue and postpone 3x. Nikki was flexible, responsive, and always helped bring my vision to life. My flowers were stunning and my decor was perfect! Nikki, thank you so much for everything and for helping us have the best wedding :)

You were so great to work with Allison, thank you for trusting us on your wedding day. Even with all the changes, I was so excited that it took us to a brand new venue and gave us a little extra challenge!
I am so happy with my decision to use Nikki and Simplicity Floral for my wedding bouquets! We had a great phone conversation while planning where she really got a feel for what I was looking for and then she delivered on my wedding day! The bouquets, corsages and boutonniere's were absolutely gorgeous and I received so many compliments on them. She really made my vision come true! I highly recommend booking her for your wedding floral needs!
Response from the Vendor on 07/13/2021
Thank you for the sweet review Korinne! I absolutely loved working with you and the vibrant color palette.
Booking Nikkii as our florist for our wedding was the best decision we could have made. She was so accommodating with the fluctuations in centerpieces due to guests who couldn't come due to COVID and was so sweet and friendly. Everyone raved at our flowers, she did such an amazing job! My bouquet was stunning and I could not have been happier with all the florals for our wedding. I would recommend her to anyone!!
Response from the Vendor on 06/16/2021
Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your wedding day Allison! It was a pleasure getting to know you.
I wish I could give Nikki 10 stars! When our plans changed due to covid and I wanted to go a different route with florals, Nikki was on board and happy to help. I was blown away when I saw the flowers on our wedding day! Everything that I explained to her she brought to life and I cannot say enough good things about her. From our first phone call to wedding day, Nikki was friendly, knowledgeable and responsive. I put all the trust in her and she did not disappoint. Book Nikki and have your floral dreams come true!

Millie, you are the sweetest and I loved working with you the entire time! Everything turned out so beautiful and couldn't have been more perfect (even with all the imperfect situations that came our way). Thank you for trusting us and having...
us a part of your wedding day.
Nikki was the absolute best to work with and I would highly recommend her to any couple! She was so flexible and willing to work with us when our original plans were upended by the pandemic. She was always quick with communication. I am not well versed with flowers but Nikki instantly picked up what I was looking for and produced a truly exquisite bouquet, more beautiful than I could have envisioned! My flowers were absolutely stunning on our big day and also highly impressed others when they saw our pictures. If you are looking for a florist, look no further!
Response from the Vendor on 06/16/2021
Thank you so much for the sweet compliment Emily. I absolutely adored working with you and will always remember how gorgeous your wedding day was!
Loved working with Nikki! She was so flexible and understanding which made planning a wedding during COVID that much easier. We loved how our bouquets turned out and can’t wait to have her do our flowers for the reception next year.
Nikki surpassed my expectations! Having a design background, I'm very particular when it comes to details. I knew exactly what I wanted and Nikki executed it flawlessly. I had SO many people tell me throughout the night how much they loved the flowers! If you're very picky like I am, I highly recommend working with Nikki!

Sam, you were absolutely lovely to work with and I'm so happy to have met you. Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate it!
I wish you all the best!
Nikki was phenomenal to work with. She helped curate a beautiful vision for my wedding ceremony and reception. The color scheme and floral arrangements came together magically, and truly cultivated my fairy-tale wedding. She was prompt, professional, friendly, and very kind. I am grateful we got to work together!

I am so thankful for have met you and the opportunity to work with you. You shine so bright, it is no wonder that you have so many meaningful relationships. Thank you for trusting our team with your wedding day, it will always remain as one o...
f my absolute favorites!
Simplicity and working with Nikki is a breath of fresh air! Her attention to detail in every petal or stem that goes into a bouquet makes what you have pictured in your head as the "perfect" arrangement even better! She goes above and beyond to find the BEST quality flowers and plants for her arrangements, is prompt in responding to questions and makes any "big" day a bit less stressful :) I recommend her for all events, not just weddings! Birthdays, baby showers, graduations, business luncheons, you name it! I also look forward to her holiday centerpiece arrangements each year as they are always the talk of the table! You are making a good choice when you choose Nikki and Simplicity to make your event, party and life....SIMPLE!
Response from the Vendor on 01/06/2020
You're too kind, thank you! Love having you as a client and friend.
Nikki and her team were awesome! I came to her with very general ideas of what I wanted for flowers/centerpieces and she put it together in a way that was better than I had imagined. She even worked a very special pin into my husband's boutonniere and added an extra table and corsage at the last minute. My bridal bouquet was stunning, and I got several compliments the flowers and the centerpieces. They were fast and professional in both the setup and removal at the end of the night. Nikki is very responsive to questions and was so kind when we met in person. I would definitely recommend working with Nikki and her team!

Thank you Shannon. It was a pleasure working with you and we LOVED the surprise bout for your husband!
You guys!!
I cannot tell you enough how amazing Simplicity Floral & Event Design was to work with. I would honestly give them 10 stars if I could.
Nikki and her Assistant Grace went above and beyond to make our wedding day so special.
I’m a bride on a budget! When I told my (now husband) what I was thinking we were going to have to spend on flowers he was a bit beside himself and encouraged me to do some more digging. I am so glad he did because I found Simplicity Floral.
Nikki didn’t shy away from giving me everything I wanted at a price point that was within our budget. After we chatted she sent an email with visuals and notes about what my day would look like which was so well put together.
Day of- I received SO many compliments on our flowers!!! When the bouquets were brought to the hotel room I was just so happy, they were absolutely stunning. They did such an amazing job with placement on the various tables and signs, it was exactly how I had wished it would be.
Thank you to Nikki and Grace for making our day so beautiful. I will recommend you to anyone I possibly can!!
Response from the Vendor on 10/30/2019
Amanda, thank you! Thank you for ALL of your kind words. Thank you for trusting our team. It was a pleasure working with you and appreciate your recognition of what an asset Grace is to our team. We are so fortunate to have clients like you...

Nikki is amazing! Not only did she create a gorgeous moon gate for our ceremony, she made the entire venue look stunning! She asked all the right questions to bring to light what I was looking for when I was having trouble deciding what I wanted. She helped coordinate things -which greatly relieved stress! She is such a talented florist and works very hard to make your vision a reality - even hard to get flowers - yeah she can do that!
Thank you Nikki! You are slaying it lady!
Response from the Vendor on 10/30/2019
Gah! The moongate! Thank you for giving me diamonds to work with and trusting me in the process. It was a privilege to work with you on your wedding day.
Nikki and her team were amazing, very helpful and professional on a stressful day. The flowers were something we did not need to worry about and looked better than expected. We really got that WOW factor. Highly recommend

Thank you Ryan. We are so fortunate to have fabulous clients such as yourself.
Nikki was the florist for our wedding. She surpassed our expectations and provided the most beautiful arrangements. She truly made our vision come to life. Nikki started setting up our arbor decor at the outside ceremony site. Less than one hour before our ceremony we moved the location to under the barn due to bad weather. Nikki kicked it into high gear and made the impossible possible. Not only is Nikki highly skilled as a florist, but she’s also a sweetheart. if you’re in the market for a florist, you need her.
Response from the Vendor on 10/02/2019
Kayla, you are so sweet and I appreciate the kind words. I will never forget you and your wedding day, you know I always love a good challenge.... so, thank you!
Nikki was absolutely great. I won't write a long review here, but just say that you can not go wrong with Nikki. She was fantastic through all phases. If you choose Nikki, you can check "Flowers" off you're list to worry about, she will take care of everything and it will be beautiful. She handled our wedding on July 13, 2019 at The Blue Dress Barn and formed our ideas into reality. Highly recommend her. Budget was fair and easily communicated. She is super easy to work with and doesn't try to control ALL aspects of the decor etc. You should definitely book with Nikki!
Response from the Vendor on 10/02/2019
Rob, you & Nora were such a pleasure to work with. Thank you for trusting us with your wedding day, it was truly a pleasure.
Nikki and her team did a FABULOUS job with the floral for our wedding. I showed her my vision and she killed it! We also gave her a budget and she helped us stay within that (which meant a lot since I talked to 3 other florists and they weren't willing to work with my budget). I loved that Nikki also gave suggestions on different types of flowers that was without our price range instead of making us pay more. They were on time to the venue to set up and had plenty of time to spare which meant a lot. would defiantly recommend!

It was so nice to meet you and be a part of your wedding day. Thank you so much for taking the time to write us a review, I appreciate it.
After being disappointed with other floral companies in Grand Rapids, Nikki was the PERFECT FIT for our wedding! There are simply not enough words to praise the beautiful work that Nikki did for our ceremony and reception. My husband and I are outdoor enthusiast, however an outdoor wedding in December is not exactly a crowd-pleaser. Nikki took the time to get to know us and understand our vision of “bring the outdoors in”. This was further complicated by some pretty strict rules from our venue. However, Nikki did not shy away and embraced the challenge head on. The result was a breathtaking winter wonderland. It’s been a week, and everyone is STILL talking about how beautiful the venue was decorated. We are so grateful to have found Nikki and highly recommend her work.
Nikki was amazing to work with. We did a consultation over the phone, shared a pintrest board and she delivered the most beautiful decorations with just that! I would highly recommend working with Nikki!

Thank you, Zoe. You had a beautiful vision and were a gorgeous bride. It was a pleasure to work with you.
Nikki was wonderful during the planning process, she knew exactly what I wanted. She brought my vision to life on the wedding day. Our flowers and arrangements were so beautiful. I couldn't have been more happy with how every thing turned out. Thank you so much.
Response from the Vendor on 12/04/2018
Thank you so much for the kind words. You're ceremony location was a favorite this past year, give me a fountain as a backdrop any day!
Beautiful work! The flowers from Simplicity Floral were stunning, and no details were missed.

Thank you, Lisa.
Simplicity Floral was absolutely amazing!!!! Nikki was amazing to work with. She helped me to decide on which flowers would look the best with my theme, and even threw in some ideas that I would have never thought of. She really goes above and beyond in every way! The flowers and center pieces were beyond gorgeous!!
The set up of the venue was lovely and made the whole evening magical.
Simplicity really goes above and beyond.
Thank you again so much for making my wedding gorgeous.

Oh man, I have so many good things to say about Nikki! I planned my wedding long distance, so we initially got in contact via the phone. We did an hour long consultation where I really felt like she completely understood the vision I wanted for my wedding. Even though we had just met, i felt like I was talking to an old friend during our consultation. Not only is she incredibly talented, but so personable and easy to work with!
She also made some amazing suggestions and sent me so many awesome ideas. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and I would choose Simplicity a thousand times over!
Response from the Vendor on 10/04/2018
Thank you so much for the kind words, Ally! You were an absolute dream to work with. Cheers to a life of joy to you and Nathan!
Nikki was the most amazing florist to work with. She knew exactly what I wanted to and was able to take my vision and make it a reality. The flowers were totally stole the show as they were so bright and beautiful. Nikki went above and beyond to make my dream a reality and worked so hard to customize my vision. I cannot say enough good things about Simplicity Floral and Nikki's work ethic. There is no other florist I would consider trusting my wedding to than Nikki.
Response from the Vendor on 07/23/2018
You are such a doll, thank you for the kindest words. I LOVED every minute of working with you and YOU definitely stole the show! Beautiful bride!
Nikki did a spectacular job at our reception. Her work honestly gave our reception the look and feel of the night. I had an idea of what I wanted but she ran with my ideas and made it even better than I could have imagined. Just about everyone was raving about the centerpieces/arrangements. I could not have asked for a better job. Her creativity, personal touch, and hard work truly shows. We were blessed to have worked with her and would recommend her a million times!
