Skillins Greenhouses and Florist

the price point is just insane! A no brainer choice for your wedding or event.

in color, simply picture perfect (truly - they were exquisite in the wedding photos!!!)! During the consultation, I could tell Erin fully understood my daughter's vision for her bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres for the groom and his groomsmen, and the arbor arrangements. We had originally intended on doing the table flowers ourselves with flowers from Whole Foods or Trader Joe's, but then decided a few weeks before the wedding to purchase bundles of coordinating blooms from Skillins, and we were so glad we made that decision! Erin was a tremendous help in finding just the right flowers to work in our many table vases. On the day of the wedding, seeing all of the flowers in their artistically assembled beauty left us wide-eyed with delight! Erin had delivered exactly what the bride and groom had requested, perfectly completing their wedding decor. Our guests had so many kind words to say about the wedding flowers, and the bride and groom absolutely loved them! After the wedding, we gifted many of the flowers to friends and family who had gone above and beyond in wedding preparations, all of whom reported they enjoyed the bouquets for more than a week following our celebration. I absolutely recommend Skillins for your wedding flowers! Thank you Erin for your expertise and talent!

ryone that we spoke to that works there is so amazing and helpful. We had our wedding at Chebeague Island, so the flowers had to be shipped on the ferry over and they were so helpful with providing information about that. It made the day seamless, romantic, and perfect.

wrist corsages. The price was very reasonable! I will say the boutonnières did brown very fast and did not last the whole day.

vered on what we want. We received so many compliments on how gorgeous our centerpieces and bouquets were. Also, as locals, the fact that we can receive points for our Skillins account was just an added bonus!

d a whimsical bouquet and specific colors. I could not have pictured more perfect flowers. My arbor decoration was beautiful and they helped with simple directions for how to attach it to our arbor, even provided us with additional items to fasten it to the arbor. The price for what you get is honestly a deal. I got so many compliments on our flowers the day of my wedding, and continue to get compliments a month later. We kept the followers in our house after the wedding and they lasted 2 weeks, so you truly get fresh flowers for your wedding day. Book Skillins for your wedding and you will not regret it!!

ision board. I would 100% recommend using Skillins for your wedding.

just *one* conversation and made everything so easy and effortless. Because of COVID, my fiancé and I decided we wanted to do a mini wedding with our immediate family. I walked into Skillins one afternoon about a month away from our wedding date and spoke to Danielle about creating a bridal bouquet, two attendant bouquets, two corsages, and two boutonnières. She asked me what I was looking for and I described a bouquet with some faint pinks/blushes mixed with jewel tones and lots of draping greenery. Somehow we got on the topic of Harry Potter, joking about how she would create the perfect bridal bouquet for a Ravenclaw (my “house”). And let me tell you, she absolutely did! Her creations were unbelievably dreamy, romantic, and magical—I couldn’t have been happier. My bouquet was filled with dahlias, peonies, orchids, roses, succulents, berries, and gorgeous greens. The attendant bouquets matched perfectly, and the corsages and boutonnières had gorgeous greens and jewel-tones flowers. Absolutely stunning. I cannot recommend Skillins and Danielle enough!!

Prices were affordable.

while listening to what we wanted and needed. She was extremely pleasant to work with and we had a lot of fun. All of the flowers, including my hairpiece, were well made with fresh flowers. They turned out beautifully! We got so many wonderful compliments on the flowers from wedding-goers as well as people simply passing by!

was also very accommodating to my last minute adjustments. I highly recommend skillins.

pful and professional in helping us make our vision come to fruition! The bouquets were exquisite and exactly what my daughter wanted (and even exceeded our expectations!). The arrangements for the head table and other accents were amazing as well. My sister did the arrangements, in vintage bud vases, for the tables and Danielle was so helpful and easy to work with in ordering these flowers as well. I can't recommend Skillins, and Danielle in particular, enough. You won't be disappointed.

uld highly recommend them!

et with her she had a bunch of loose stems and formed small arrangements to see how we liked them. It was super helpful for someone visual like me and considering I don't know specific flower names! Our arrangements the day of came out beautifully! Couldn't be happier!

credible! From the bouquets to the arbor arrangement and bud vases for the centerpieces everything was perfect. I can't recommend them highly enough!

nt some ideas from Pinterest - Wendi was knowledge and flexible, and was able to really match the tone and feel of what I was looking for.

weet and very easy to work with.

stunning work that lasted long after the event! The crew also helped us load our vehicle to make sure everything arrived safely! I would highly recommend!

iamond Cove Island, and Skillins got all of the flowers on the ferry and over to us the morning of. We did our boutiques, center pieces, ceremony decor and cake decor all with Skillins, and everything was exactly what I hoped for! Highly recommend!

olors and additional props we gave her. Her work is excellent and we couldn't be happier. Everything she did photographed so well and we got many compliments from those that attended the wedding. I have had Danielle do many arrangements for me in the past and will continue to have her do more in the future. Her work is so good and I always refer Danielle to anyone needing a simple arrangement or something more elaborate. A+++, Thanks

est to only use plants and flowers that were seasonal in October. Super reasonable prices too!

e her again for another event!

e. She has a great eye for color and flower combinations and WOW the final products were absolutely beautiful. Lucky for me my bridesmaids forgot their bouquets at the venue the next morning and I got to take them all home and display them around my house for weeks after! I highly recommend Skillins Greenhouses!

many times I was hesitant with my decisions or changed my mind, Danielle was so calm and patient through it all. She was easy to communicate with and we trusted her decisions without hesitation. One of the things we really appreciated was the honesty when it came to finances. Since we were on a budget they were very open with prices and how changing certain flowers can make a difference in the financial department but look just as beautiful. I would use their services again without hesitation.

feel confident all will be well!

lk through what kind of look we were going for for our June wedding. Being two brides, it was really lovely to work with a vendor who just "got it." So easy to work with, such a lovely experience. We could not be happier.

I saw the final product! Thank you!

livery! I don't know flowers, but I had an idea of what my daughter wanted for her wedding. Danielle created the most unique and gorgeous succulent bouquets for the bridal party, all the girls were over the moon! If you're looking for the perfect wedding flowers, contact Danielle at Skillins in Falmouth. She's the best!

tail my ideas and visions, and she was very organized and professional and brought all my ideas to reality, even better than I could have imagined! My bouquet and bridesmaid bouquets were perfect, exactly what I wanted. Our centerpieces were beautiful and so healthy, they lived for 2 weeks after the wedding! I used a lot of succulents in my bouquet/bridesmaid bouquets and have since re-planted them and they are alive and well, such a nice piece to have to remember the special day! I would highly recommend Skillins as well as Danielle to anyone looking for beautiful flowers at an excellent price, and friendly professional service!

pinterest page. All Amazing!! I emailed after the Portland Wedding Expo to express interest and set up a consultation. I was planning my wedding from NYC, email and phone communication were key for me, and was amazing. Danielle kept in touch so well, and planned my visit to put together flowers for April (4 months before wedding in August 2016). When I went in April for my consultation, I had looked at flowers and had an idea but didn't know where to start. Danielle is so knowledgeable, and helped me get started on building a bouquet and from there we built the most amazing bridal bouquet. She helped me find cheaper options for a bridesmaid bouquet to make it similar but different and smaller than my bridal bouquet. In addition to being knowledgeable, creative, helpful, she also gives pricing options for centerpieces and boutonniere's to help with your wedding budget. After I kept in contact via email (again planning from NYC.) And my flowers showed up in the delivery window day of the wedding, and were absolutely stunning. All flower arrangements were perfect, and in pristine and fresh condition. I couldn't have worked with a better florist, Danielle, or a better company for my wedding day. I highly recommend Skillin's!

n after that (which was infrequent until the 3 weeks prior to the wedding) she recognized me by name. They were helpful when discussing flowers for my hair and when I finally saw my flowers, they were exactly what I was looking for and were perfect for me and my wedding. The best part was that I, and my family, had the bouquets from the tables and my bouquet for 2-3 weeks afterwards, keeping the joy of that day with us for a long time.

e bouquets, which were a gift from a guest). This involved creating the floral decor for the interior of the church, as well as the centerpieces, a few small arrangements, and the table assignment/favors (small individual cacti) for the dinner reception at The Portland Club. Danielle Arroyo, florist at Skillins, met with my daughter and me a number of times and was always readily available by phone when questions arose during the planning process. She did a terrific job of hearing what the bride envisioned in terms of color and style for the old church, as well as the centerpieces, a few small arrangements for the dessert table, etc., and the favors/table assignment pieces (small individual cacti). Danielle was creative, insightful, thorough, and timely in all facets of her interactions with us. We received many compliments about the beautiful flowers provided by Skillins; every detail exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend Skillins for wedding flowers created and offered with a wonderfully personal touch.

have what I wanted and stay within budget. The flowers were so much more amazing than I ever imagined.
