Michelle at Snowberry Studio was fantastic!!! She worked with me for my entire engagement, making sure every detail was covered and everything was exactly how I wanted it. The flowers were stunning and were so similar to the pictures I showed her. She is so friendly and so professional!! She is amazing at what she does!
I cannot speak more highly of Michelle and her team. Sometimes I felt like she was even more excited than I was about making our wedding day a reality! I actually met with a lot of florists in the beginning of my planning and Michelle was the only one who heard what I wanted and actually listened - all while inserting her creativity where it was needed most. She also was incredibly flexible, communicative and responsive during our need for postponements during COVID. The flowers were the biggest thing I was excited to see when my day came, and Michelle didn't disappoint. My bouquet + centerpieces + the chuppah were everything I could have asked for and more!
Snowberry Studio was absolutely wonderful to work with and I would 100% recommend to other brides! Michelle, understood our vision, was super knowledgeable, detail oriented, and was able to work within our budget. Guests at our wedding commented all night on how beautiful our flowers were. We were so happy with the whimsical look she was able to create for our wedding day.
Michelle went above and beyond to satisfy every request, even last minute ones. The floral arrangements were beautiful and I would highly recommend Michelle for your wedding or special event.
Michelle did an outstanding job with florals! I had a vision but did not have much time to get into the nitty gritty- instead Michelle listened to me ramble on about what I was picturing and then turned that rambling into totally stunning florals. She did our bouquets, boutineers, corsages, an amazing sweetheart table installation, gorgeous arch, table garlands and more! We could not stop talking about our florals!
Let me begin by saying I’ve never written a review. Michelle from snowberry was such a pleasure to work with and I can’t thank her enough for the wonderful arrangements she created for my cold November wedding. She was so professional, responsive and her warm personality gave me confidence that I knew that I was in good hands. She was able to work within my budget, gave me ideas, and always had the lines of communication open. Also, she was honest all through the process. Thank you for your work.
Michelle and Snowberry studio were wonderful! She was the first florist I talked to on the phone and got a great impression. Michelle was easy to work with and very accommodating with the changes up until the last minute. The bouquets, centerpieces and other decors turned out exactly the way I had imagined. Can not recommend snowberry studio enough.
My husband and I were both very pleased with the floral arrangements that Snowberry Studio created for our wedding. They turned out beautifully and really brought our vision to life. Our most loved piece was a 21 foot garland made of lots of eucalyptus with scattered white and dusty rose flowers that laid down the center of the head table at our reception. It was just stunning!!
Aside from the beautiful flowers, Michelle was a pleasure to work with. She was professional, personal, and very detail oriented. We would highly recommend her services!
Let me start off by saying that I know nothing about flowers and seeing my bouquet for the time was the first thing that made me tear up on my wedding day. IT WAS PERFECT! Michelle talked me through exactly what I was envisioning for the florals, started sharing inspiration photos to narrow the look down, always kept my budget in mind and helped me work through any problem that arose. I gave the creative reins to her and that was probably one of the best decisions I made during the planning process. My favorite photos are the ones with the flowers in full view!!! Tell Michelle what you want, the product will exceed your wildest dreams. Thank you oh so very much!!!
I don’t even know where to begin. To say this florist went above and beyond is an extreme understatement. Michelle made the wedding of my dreams. From our arch for the ceremony to the memorial display. Every little detail was so beautiful and beyond my expectations. She was so patient with my overbearing/creative mother, she even helped incorporate a few DIY elements my mom had created. Our wedding was so visually beautiful all because of Michelle. I will recommend her to every new bride I know and even those I don’t I don’t know. I promise you will not be disappointed with this florist. She is absolutely amazing and her skills are beyond anything I’ve ever seen...and I’ve been to my fair share of weddings. Michelle, thank you for everything. You made my wedding so beautiful, I can’t tell you how many compliments we received about how amazing our centerpieces, bouquets, memorial display, ceremony arch, corsages, etc. I would recommend this florist a million times above anyone else!!! Thank you so much Michelle!!!
Hands down the best vendor we used for our wedding! This review is so long overdue...but I want future brides to know how wonderful it was to work with Michelle. She was so on top of things leading up to the day & then gave me exactly what I asked for. People still compliment our flowers (especially our ceremony arch!) when they see our photos. Can't thank her enough!!
Michelle is just the best!! We are from Arizona and didn't know any vendors from San Diego. We took a chance on Snowberry based on all the awesome reviews and how close she was to our venue. We felt like we hit the lottery with our wedding florist!!! She made us feel at ease right away and we knew we were in good hands. Our flowers were exactly what we were expecting and so so so much more! We had the prettiest overflowing greenery on all our tables and the bouquets were simply STUNNING. Our guests could not stop raving about them. Thank you Michelle for such a wonderful experience!!!
Michelle is so knowledgable and experienced! She is very easy to talk to and listens to every detail you share with her. She met with us serval times and always emailed us back quickly. Other vendors took days or even weeks to return any of our communication. She was very flexible with our design choices when we had trouble figuring out what we wanted. We were able to make adjustments with ease every time. She even created us a beautiful mood board which really helped nail down our vision. We were blown away on our wedding day, our florals were even better than we imagined!! We highly recommend Snowberry Studio!!!
Michelle from Snowberry Studio is truly a godsend to work with! From the very beginning of us picking out designs to the final steps of seeing all of our bouquets, arch and centerpieces, she was friendly, helpful and reliable. We knew we were in good hands the whole time. Our flowers were beyond gorgeous and we were so lucky to have found her!
Very knowledgeable and fun to work with
Michelle was awesome to work with! I was a destination bride so I never got the pleasure of meeting with her in person to plan out the florals, however, that never was an issue and she was able to bring my vision to life. We had a rustic/tropical vibe and it was perfect for our venue and theme. She spent a long time speaking with me on the phone to understand my vision and put together a well-thought out proposal. She was never pushy, always quick to respond and provided great advice in helping me stay my budget, while still achieving the look I was going for. The day of our outdoor wedding was very windy and she was able to improvise some of the floral plan to prevent any issues with the wind. I am so happy we chose Michelle for our wedding and there was never a doubt in my mind that she wouldn't do an awesome job!
Michelle created the most beautiful arrangements for my wedding, and she was an absolute pleasure to communicate with. I felt like I could just relax and let her do her thing! My jaw literally dropped when she walked in on the wedding day with the flowers for our arch. They were even more gorgeous than I had pictured in my head! She captured our style and colors EXACTLY, and the flowers were so fresh! Seriously, look no further if you are searching for a job well done, and loads of compliments on your flowers! Thanks again Michelle—Matt and I were SO lucky to find you!! :)

Michelle was absolutely outstanding. She was so friendly and excited for us and our upcoming big day. We weren’t sure exactly what to expect and she was so knowledgeable on all of the different options we had. She was extremely supportive and would provide suggestions to help piece everything together. She listened intently to exactly what we wanted for florals. She also linked us up to our own private Pinterest page where we could put inspiration photos to help her understand exactly what our theme was. She really brought our vision to life for our wedding. We planned a destination wedding and her communication with us was so quick and consistent. We had the freshest, most vibrant flowers. She created beautiful pieces of art and they were exactly what we had hoped for. She comes highly, highly recommended.
Michelle did a great job bringing my vision to life. Our flowers were stunning. I started off all over the board with my style. Michelle helped me really nail down what I was looking for and was patient along the way. I asked for many many revisions to the flowers and quote and Michelle was wonderful at providing different options for my budget. Thank you for everything Michelle - the flowers and your creativity tied the whole look together so perfectly.
We loved Michelle! We did a destination wedding to San Diego and she was so easy to work with from afar. Her floral arrangements were gorgeous, and she even made special request items (like a dog wreath for our flower girl/dog hehe). All of the flowers were fresh and everyone complimented them! I'm pressing all of them to preserve because I can't bear to toss them haha!
Michelle did am amazing job with our flowers. She understood my vision from the first time we discussed and was open about what different combinations and flowers would look and feel like. She was also quick to respond and flexible as I edited my vision as we got closer to the day of . I couldn't be happier with our flowers for our wedding.
Michelle is so creative! So happy to have her as our florist. I recommend Snowberry Studio to any one looking for a fab florist!!

My husband and I decided to do a destination wedding in La Jolla California. We live in Northern Virginia so I relied on Google, Wedding Wire and the Knot for recommendations on vendors. When I first came across Michelle's website, I really loved her work. Then as I read her story about how Snowberry Studio came to be, I fell in love even more! Michelle was always so delightful to work with. She listened to my needs/wants and I can say with certainty that she delivered the day of my wedding! Michelle and I were in contact for about a year leading up to my wedding. I know I was difficult at times, reaching out to change my ideas but Michelle never showed signs of frustration when communicating with me. On the day of, Michelle came to the house where I was getting ready and when I finally met her in person, we gave each other a big, warm embrace!! I felt like I had a new friend. My bouquet was absolutely stunning and was even more beautiful than I had imagined it to be! When I arrived at the venue and saw all of the centerpieces set up, the flowers by the aisles, chuppah designed, etc, I honestly had tears in my eyes- everything was beyond beautiful and exceeded my expectations.... I would highly recommend Michelle and Snowberry Studio to anyone and everyone! Thank you Michelle, for being a part of my day and making it magical!!! You are amazing!
Snowberry Studio was a pleasure to work with. When the day came for my sister's wedding, all our expectations were beyond amazing! The flower arrangements were absolutely gorgeous! At every turn, the flower and greenery arrangements were so beautiful - just how my sister wanted. We were so happy to see how wonderful everything turned out. We would recommend Snowberry Studio to anyone planning a wedding/reception or any special occasion.
Michelle is so delightful and amazing at flower arrangements. I had so many complaints on the flower arrangements and bouquets at my wedding. I will definitely use her again in the future and definitely recommend!!
Snowberry Studio went beyond our expectations - everything was in place and absolutely perfect. My daughter and her, now, husband were in awe with all the flower arrangements, center pieces, long table arrangements, and flower pots on the belly bars. They were extremely pleased with their sweetheart table and cake table flowers. Again, Snowberry Studio did an exceptional job, were very professional, and did all this wonderful work with a smile. Thank you very much, Snowberry Studio. We will definitely recommend you to our family and friends. You were amazing!!!
I cannot even put into words how much I loved working with Michelle from Snowberry Studio. She made the entire process extremely easy and dealt with my indecisiveness like a champ! Michelle's ideas were perfect, exactly what I was envisioning. She was extremely communicative throughout the entire process and was always very helpful. I am awestruck every time I walk past my arrangements at home or when I see pictures. Tears fill my eyes over and over again because my flowers were the most beautiful things I could have ever imagined for my wedding day. Every single touch was beyond perfect. So perfect that I cannot even think of powerful enough adjectives! Michelle is a beautiful florist and her artwork is even more beautiful. Every time I turned around on my wedding day, I saw another stunning arrangement. I 110% recommend Snowberry Studio for ANY event. You will absolutely be overjoyed and all of your expectations will be exceeded.
Michelle at Snowberry Studio was absolutely amazing. She was incredibly responsive from day one. I was looking all around for florists for my wedding day, and once I met Michelle I knew she was who I wanted to help make my wedding day beautiful. I live in San Francisco and my wedding was in Escondido, which meant we communicated a ton through email. Michelle always responded and helped me with all of my questions. She executed the day exactly how I imagined and anything I didn't know I had her take the lead with her own vision. I highly recommend Snowberry Studio, she will make sure you are taken care of and instill full confidence that your special day will be perfect. Thank you Michelle from Blake and I!! We hope one day we can work together again!
Michelle was a God send! I truly appreciated how patient she was with me in the process of picking my flowers. As expected, I was overwhelmed at times but Michelle stayed consistent, well manned and reliable. Her ideas to make my vision come to life and meet our budget really stood out to me. On my wedding day, when I saw the final product I was blown away! I couldn't have been more happy. I think as a bride, I worried about someone understanding my vision and making it come to life but Michelle did and I really couldn't say enough good things about her. Very talented and professional!
I cannot say enough good things about Michelle from Snowberry Studio!!! I chose her after looking at the photos on her website and being impressed with how quickly she responded to my initial inquiry. I met with her over coffee and tried to explain the look I was going for. She had a nifty app on her phone that let me look at flowers by color and see if they were in season. I wanted a vintage look with blush flowers and gray-green succulents but I wasn't exactly sure it would work. I was worried that I didn't get across what I was envisioning and because I live out of state I couldn't meet with Michelle again before the wedding. I must have sent her dozens of emails with questions and ideas and she always responded right away. The day of the wedding I was really stressed that things weren't going to look how I wanted them to, but when I saw the ceremony and reception site I was blown away. It was like Michelle got into my head, saw my vision, and then improved it tenfold. To say it far exceeded my expectations would be an understatement. We got married on a grassy lawn at the Safari Park by the cheetahs, but Michelle turned it into a romantic, vintage, magical park. Between her kindness, professionalism, patience, and absolutely stunning work, I would absolutely recommend her for any event. I'm so happy we chose her!
Michelle went above and beyond for my wedding! All of the flowers were even better than I could have imagined. I never doubted that I was in good hands. From the moment we met I could see how talented, honest, hard working, and efficient she was. She truly cared about my event... A rare quality that I have found lacking in many other vendors. When I was shopping around for a florist I noticed many of them had short attention spans and seemed to stop listening to the details I was sharing with them. I could tell Michelle was different. She was perfect at reading what I envisioned and totally nailed it on my wedding day.
She was also quick with responses every step of the way even when I asked her for a million adjustments. The amount of times I changed my mind would have driven anyone nuts, not Michelle. She never made me feel bad about changing my mind and was always patient and kind.
Michelle is a couple's dream come true!!! Book her, you can't go wrong!
Michelle was very helpful at first - and seemed to have a good idea of what we wanted in terms of floral design for our wedding in 9 months. However, once we got a proposal we liked, she then asked us to make a deposit before she had written up a contract, which was a big red flag. I got an email from her about this on a Wednesday morning, but didn't get to open it until Thursday. When I opened my email on Thursday, I was going to reply to let her know that we'd still love to use her but that we wouldn't be comfortable paying through a paypal link without a contract - only to see an email from her that she'd booked with another couple! Less than 24 hours after letting her know that we wanted to book her and asking how to pay her, she'd booked with someone else. That seemed terribly unprofessional, especially since we spent the last three weeks NOT looking for a florist, believing Michelle was going to do it, only to have her book with someone else immediately after I told her I wanted to book her.
My husband and I got Married in March at the Rancho Bernardo Inn. She was the ONLY florist that we interviewed that actually met us at the resort. We wanted her to meet us there so we could show her what our venue looked like and what we had in mind for our special day. On our first meeting we loved her and her ideas. On the day of, she showed up early with the flowers and they were perfect! She even helped our wedding planner move the flowers from the ceremony to the reception. I had so many compliments on my flowers that day and even now when i show people our wedding pictures. Her flowers were amazing and the best decision we made for our wedding!
SOOOO AMAZING is an understatement. Michelle went above and beyond! The flowers turned out better than I imagined, our Chuppah was perfect, it was done so elegantly and natural, the bouquets are still sitting perfectly on my table and it's been over a week. When my wedding venue left her without Sheppard's hooks to hang the flowers on she improvised and made the isle look adorable. She meet with me and my mom several times and kept up with my ever changing mind. Thank you Michelle for everything! You helped make our day perfect!!!
I booked snowberry about 6 months in advance to design a gazebo flower and ivy arch and a matching bridal bouquet. Quick contact via email and phone, consistent pricing and quotes when compared to listings and email communications. She had other works in a gallery that gave me the impression she would be creative with the arch and she really was! It was beautiful.
She was reliable, arriving on time and I heard her and her husband were both thoughtful and personable at the venue while setting up.
I had flowers I didn't like inside my bridal bouquet that hadn't been on the list we had set up, so I cut and took them out only to see they were also inside the arch when I was in the ceremony, which I hadn't anticipated. BUT ladies/gents, I am picky and I kind of had an exact idea of what I wanted.
I think anyone booking a full wedding package would have really appreciated her style and arrangements and should give her a go if they were planning with less precision to detail, or knew they mostly wanted one or two types of flowers incorporated.
While booking, keep in mind the weather.. Part of my bouquet grew very wilted during my July day wedding. Lambs leaf? A green stock. We pulled these out between the wedding and reception for the next round of photos. Still gorgeous, even with a little improvisation.
Michelle was excellent to work with and because of her creativity, she transformed my wedding to an elegant one. I was truly impressed with ALL the flowers and the quality of the displays. Thank you, Michelle for making this a unforgettable event.
Michelle from Snowberry is a bride's come true especially when a bride has this broad random idea with no clear understanding of execution and a wary use of pinterest. Michelle had the same enthusiasm as I did about my idea and was very responsive in discussing different aspects of the floral arrangements and she was respectful of my budget.
The archway, table pieces, bouquets and boutonnieres exactly fit my personality and what I envisioned for the big day. I kind of stumbled on Snowberry studios on my search for florists, and it has been one of my luckiest finds!
Michelle Sousa of Snowberry Studio was an absolute pleasure to work with. She completely understood what I was looking for in the floral arrangements for my wedding, and delivered unique, beautiful and unforgettable designs. I chose to use Snowberry Studio for my floral arrangements because of Michelle's willingness to create unique designs that fit within my budget. From our first contact and through the day of my wedding, Michelle was on top of things, checking in with me frequently and offering suggestions when needed. While setting up at my venue, she went above and beyond by helping me set up my table numbers and decorating my card box with extra flowers and greenery. I was absolutely blown away by how gorgeous all of the arrangements were. I can't recommend Snowberry Studio enough for your wedding, as I am over the moon about the incredible job they did for me!
Cannot say enough good things about Michelle and Snowberry Studio! She took my vision and ran with it and executed everything perfectly! I was so pleased with how everything turned out. Michelle was quick to respond to all of my questions and changes and was so willing to do whatever would make me happy. Her advice and input was very much appreciated throughout the planning process. I love her attention to detail and had so many compliments from our guests about how amazing the centerpieces were. So incredibly happy with the floral decor and can't wait to see all the beautiful pictures of everything she created!!
I was at the consultation with Michelle & my grandson & his Bride-to-be.I have been in the flower business for 30 yrs. and I am amazed at Michelle's expertise in every way. Delivery & set-up 6 mos. later (at a bare Castle)she turned into a beautiful wedding & reception wonderland by her gifted design of centerpieces, garlands, bouquets, and many special touches. Michelle is the BEST!!!!!!
I have never written a review... ever... but Snowberry Studio truly deserves this one! I can't thank Michelle enough for making our wedding so BEAUTIFUL! Not only is her work amazing, but I was blown away by how honest, professional, responsive, and kind she is. It felt more like I was planning my wedding with a friend rather than a vendor. She is so open and enthusiastic and you can tell she loves what she does. Because of her, I had complete confidence while planning my big day. She truly cared about my fiance and I, our interests, our opinions, our budget, and our vision, and she far exceeded our expectations!
I am so very glad that I found Snowberry Studio, and would recommend them 100%! They made our wedding beautiful and they made the planning fun and exciting... In my opinion, that's what every bride hopes for!
THANK YOU SNOWBERRY STUDIO!!
When I began to plan my wedding, I was overwhelmed by all of the vendors that you need to choose. Flowers was of course one of them. I sent many generic emails asking for quotes, and I was referred to Michelle, owner of Snowberry Studios, by someone who used to work with her. Michelle is extremely prompt and professional, and you can feel her warmth in her emails and texts (I'm big on feeling a connection!, even through writing). She was able to meet with me and we took a few hours to go through ideas and flowers. She was so helpful, and not pushy at all. She's respectful and understanding of budgets, and doesn't make you feel bad about adding in or removing items to get your perfect order and quote. I also really loved the fact that she is willing to work with whatever flower you want to use. I had my heart set on a stargazer lily bouquet, and I had a few florists flat out dismiss my idea or tell me it isn't doable so they refuse. Michelle was enthusiastic and my bridal bouquet turned out amazing. My bridesmaids all loved their bouquets, and the groomsmen and my husband thought it was the best thing ever that their boutonnieres were magnets instead of pins. I felt so lucky to have such a good connection with my florist.
Thank you Michelle for the amazing job that you did, and for your sweet and wonderful energy!!
She did a fabulous job on my wedding flowers. The arch was gorgeous. She really carried through my vision.
Michelle was so helpful from the beginning!!! She had a great vision and ideas!! She was great with communication and I couldn't have been happier with how my wedding and bridesmaids bouquets came out, along with our gazebo and head table!! Everything was amazing! I would recommend her to anyone!
We LOVED everything about our experience with Snowberry Studio! We met with Michelle and shared what we'd like for our wedding and she added some of her ideas and we just knew we were in good hands. Michelle is incredibly talented and managed to successfully create what we had envisioned our floral arrangements, centerpieces, bouquets, etc. to look like. Everything looked beautiful and flawless, especially for such a large wedding. We couldn’t go wrong with such friendly and talented staff and it was also very affordable for us. We are so happy we chose Snowberry Studio, and we will continue to do so for all of our future floral needs.
My daughter's wedding was going very well recently. The flowers were one of the best part.
Michelle, the owner of Snowberry Studio is an excellent florist. As the mom of bride,I am not an easy one to be pleased. She was able to deal with the difficulty and to create the absolutely gorgeous flower arrangement for the wedding. She delivered the flower from San Diego to Los Angeles on time.
I believe the great creative,service and honesty will support her to have a thriving business.
You will be happy as we are to select Snowberry Studio as your vendor.
I got married last year and can't say enough good things about Snowberry Studio. Michelle, the owner, took the time to assist me through the entire process. She responded quickly to all my requests and I felt like I was planning my wedding with my best friend! Every design I had envisioned, she was able to create. The result was totally unique and custom to me. Thanks Michelle and Snowberry Studio!!
Michelles' vision is amazing. I loved her creativity in using a variety of different flowers. They complimented each other perfectly. She is extremely pleasant and patient and I am so happy I was referred to her. Thanks Snowberry Studio for making my Magical day beautiful!!!
