Something Blue Floral Events

I cannot thank Marion and her team enough for the amazing job they did on my wedding day! It was absolute perfection and exactly the way I envisioned. Everyone kept complimenting me on the florals and how beautiful they were! Everything was perfect from the flowers on the staircase to the candles they placed on the tables as a part of my centerpieces. They were a pleasure to work with and very accommodating to any changes I wanted even if it was last minute. Thank you so much for the beautiful work and making my wedding day florals dream come true!

Marion and the entire Something Blue team were an absolute dream to work with! Marion is beyond creative and talented, and brought all of our visions to life for our special day. The floral masterpieces she created for our elegant mansion wedding were out of this world beautiful! On top of that, Marion is the kindest person and just so easy to work with. I felt confident that she would know exactly how to make our day picture-perfect and she delivered without hesitation. If you are looking for a florist, I highly recommend Marion at Something Blue!

Dear Marion, I find myself struggling to capture the depth of my gratitude for the incredible work you did as our wedding florist. Your talent, dedication, and the beauty you brought to our special day are beyond words. From the moment we met you, it was clear that you were not just a florist but an artist, and your passion for your craft was palpable. Your expertise and creativity were evident in every bloom and arrangement you crafted. The floral designs you created for our wedding were nothing short of breathtaking, and they added an enchanting and ethereal atmosphere to our celebration. What truly sets you apart is not just your immense talent but also your ease to work with. Your warm and approachable nature put us at ease from our very first meeting. You listened attentively to our ideas, understood our vision, and then turned it into a reality that surpassed our wildest dreams. Your patience in guiding us through the selection process and your attention to every detail, no matter how small, made the entire experience a joy. On the day of our wedding, when I walked into the venue and saw the magnificent floral arrangements, I was truly moved to tears. Every bloom was an embodiment of your passion and skill, and it made our day even more special. You transformed our vision into a tangible, breathtaking reality. The compliments and praise we received from our guests were a testament to your extraordinary talent. You not only met our expectations but exceeded them in every way. Your artistry made our wedding day more magical than we could have ever imagined. So, from the depths of our hearts, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to you. You played an essential role in making our wedding day an unforgettable and beautiful experience. Your talent, professionalism, and the sheer loveliness of your work are truly praiseworthy. We feel blessed to have had the opportunity to work with you and will forever cherish the memories you helped create for us. You are more than just a florist; you are a true artist, and we will continue to sing your praises to everyone we know. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for sharing your gift with us and for making our wedding day so exceptionally beautiful. With the deepest gratitude and warmest wishes, The Von Barthelds

Marion was amazing- from start to finish she was professional, courteous, helpful and very creative. She went out of her way to make the flowers come to live and really tried to make sure she created unique and gorgeous arrangements that were also exactly what I wanted. She even helped me when I was overwhelmed with details and took the table cloth decision off my plate and did an amazing job coordinating it all. Walking into the venue was like walking into a dream! It was absolutely magical! Everyone at the wedding commented about how incredible the flowers were. Marion definitely went above and beyond to make my wedding incredibly special. We can not thank her enough!! 10 Stars!!

The Best!!! I wish I could give more stars. Marion is a pleasure to work with. The flowers were exactly what we envisioned.

We were married September 16th 2023, outside venue, the only weekend that was not awful weather. It was, in fact, a beautiful day. We were blessed. My vision for our wedding included a broad floral palette, but specific. It is important to say I LOVE flowers and color in general, so wedding flowers was a big, daunting deal for me. I wanted so many different light pinks but not a peach look. I wanted yellow. As my personal process came to light, I went ahead and added blue (delphinium) into the mix. I shared with Marion one or two inspiration photos. That said, I could not wrap my head around how Marion would be able to create what I envisioned in my head. I had no fear though, my great friend and wedding planner, Patrick, and my beloved cousin, Hilary, both sung Marion's praises. Ironically, the day I met Marion, which was a splendid meeting, Marion and I were talking flowers and we came to realize my cousin Hilary had her florals done by Marion!! It was uncanny. What a small world. I kept my cousins centerpiece until almost her second wedding, just a few months before meeting Marion! The centerpiece sat on my dining room table alone for months, as with Hilary's vision, she wanted some synthetic flowers for her winter wedding. Synthetic flowers, I know, odd, but it worked beautifully and it lasted! Marion.. worked it beautifully, just like our wedding. The florals for the two weddings were different, with different venues, but both perfect for the individual brides (whom people often say are very much alike;). Our guests were floored, to say the least. It was a wonderful day. I can not thank Marion enough and I can not say enough good things about Marion. She is so kind. She is so talented and versatile, and Marion did an exceptional job for us.

Our wedding was July 15, 2023 and Marion couldn't have been more amazing from day 1. We reached out pretty early after seeing her a wedding she had done at Bourne Mansion while we were venue shopping because it was absolutely gorgeous, as is everything she does. Marion was so helpful during the initial meetings and absolutely knew my vision immediately, she made sure to include my favorite flowers all throughout my wedding which was so special. She also came to do a flower reveal at the spot I was getting ready with my bridal party which was so wonderful and really got the day started. Everything was magical, from the ceremony flowers with a gorgeous screen as a backdrop decorated with all the flowers to our wedding cake which was decorated to match. It was all flawless and I couldn't have been happier with the results. I HIGHLY recommend Something Blue Floral Events for your wedding!

Working with Marion was such a pleasure! She is so incredibly skilled in her work and it shows in every piece she and her team creates. I don’t think I fully articulated what I wanted when I first met with her but somehow she pulled together the most elegant and elevated florals I’ve ever seen. She was able to take a very vague description of the aesthetic I wanted and create florals that went far beyond what I expected. We received compliments on our wedding flowers all night and I did not expect to be the bride that was so in love with my flowers. Her style is beyond sophisticated and she’s able to work with whatever venue/ environment you’re trying to create. I highly highly recommend using Something Blue Floral Events and my advice would be to tell her the vibe you’re going for and then give her the freedom to create it! She’s truly an expert in her work and we could not be happier we used Something Blue!! She also does a flower reveal the morning of the wedding with the girls if able which added such a fun memory for us!

Something Blue Words fail to describe the work Marion and her team did for us on our wedding day. I will dream about my flowers and seeing them for the first time for years to come. And people will be talking about them, too, that is for sure. From the moment we saw Marion’s work, it was a no brainer. At our consultation meeting and subsequent phone calls and emails thereafter, Marion truly got my vision and brought it all to life in a way I could have never imagined. It was beyond beautiful. What sets Marion apart is that she truly understood how important flowers are to the wedding day and how they, in and of itself, can make or break the entire event. They are probably the most important part of the wedding, besides the bride and groom. Because they bring life and character to the wedding. They simply define it. Marion knows this and knows it well. Each and every step she took to perfect our flowers was noticed by everyone who attended our wedding. When I was handed my bouquet, it simply took my breath away! The professionalism, the care, the QUALITY, and the masterfulness that is Marion and her entire team is noticeable from the smallest petal to the biggest centerpiece and we are so incredibly lucky to have had Marion as a part of our team. She made my dreams come true- and then some. I will never forget her attentiveness, her responsiveness, and her understanding about everything I asked for. I truly feel that there was love in each and every flower in the room that day. We love you Marion, and cannot thank you (or recommend Something Blue) enough!

Marion is beyond talented. I knew before I even saw each arrangement that she was going to go above and beyond what I expected. My bouquet was perfect and when we walked into our ballroom we were overcome by the beauty of each center pieces. From the bouquet, center pieces, staircase, and mantel. I am so grateful I got to work with her and her amazingly talented team. I would HIGHLY recommend. You will not be disappointed

Marion was absolutely amazing to work with, easy to communicate with and a lovely human in general. She took my whimsical winter wedding idea and turned it into a breathtaking sight. Our reception sparkled like fresh fallen snow and my ceremony arch was everything. Working with her was such a pleasure.

Our wedding was November 20, 2022 and my guests are still talking about how gorgeous the flowers were at our wedding. Marion saw my vision and created the perfect atmosphere. It was exactly what I wanted. The flowers were fresh and vibrant. They lasted for weeks after the wedding. Marion was an absolute pleasure to work with as well. If you want the best flowers and most gorgeous arrangements, you have to go with Marion at Something Blue.

Marion & Something Blue was everything we wanted and more! Her expertise and creativity is unmatched. We asked for winter glam and that is what she delivered. Our bouquets, the flower arch, the centerpieces and zillion other sprays, table designs and not to mention the venue decor, which was also done by Marion. We would 1,000,000 percent recommend Something Blue.

Marion was the absolute best florist and friend a bride could have asked for. She took my dream to life but also more importantly put my trust in her to come up with my vision. She was patient, hardworking and her entire team was truly just phenomenal. People today are still commenting about my centerpieces, girls flowers, table settings, table cloths, etc. When people walked into my ballroom they were completely blown away. She made such a statement which had my guests completely overwhelmed with such beauty. She and her team incorporated every aspect of my vision. Whimsical/ glamour. I cannot imagine her not being apart of my wedding day. Attentive and reassuring that I had nothing to worry about. She's truly an artist! We will never forget what she did for us!

Marion and her team were amazing! She was extremely easy to work with and responsive to all of my questions. My flowers were amazing and exactly what I wanted. She truly understood my vision. She is a focused florist for events which is a big part of the reason I chose her! I highly recommend working with Marion, you won’t regret it!

I have nothing but compliments for Marion at Something Blue. My bouquet was insanely beautiful – it fit my style and vision perfectly. She worked with us on different table centerpieces for our oval and round tables and everything was so beautiful! I loved the lanterns and the low laying wreaths. Our cake was gorgeous. She was also able to reuse large flower arrangements from our ceremony for the reception area in a seamless way. Honestly, florals were not the highest priority for me initially (I am no flower expert!). I knew I liked a lot of greenery and a bohemian vibe. I had some photos of bouquets I liked and pointed out a few flowers I really loved. As I got deeper into wedding planning, I realized that flowers become an integral part to the look and feel of your wedding. The end result really blew me away - I could not be happier. I’m surely a bit biased, but the flowers at our wedding were the most beautiful I’ve ever seen 🙂

Marion and her team were amazing. From my first meeting with her, it was clear she has our vision and our best interest at heart. I was a little intimidated with the process, and she made me feel so comfortable and helped me by asking me specific and clear questions regarding my vision. When I wasn’t sure about something, she took the time to explain the options, weigh the pros and cons, and help me make an informed decision. She was upfront about cost and different options, where I could save, and how to best work within my budget. Something that really made her and her work stand out was the comments and endorsements from other vendors. The venue, photographer, and planner I worked with all commented on how much they loved working with her and her team and how her product was outstanding. I was so impressed on the day of the wedding. The arrangements, bouquets, arch, and cake decor were absolutely stunning. So many guests commented on how beautiful the flowers were. I cannot recommend her and her team enough. She prioritizes her clients and delivered a personalized and beautiful result. Thank you, Marion!

Marion is a visionary, simply put. The quality of her work stands above the rest and is a mix between carefully curated and artistically whimsical. The care and attention to detail Marion put in to every aspect of our wedding far exceeded our expectations. I wanted to sit among her florals all evening. Guests raved about the lush, beautiful arrangements that filled our venue. Not only is Marion artistically gifted, but she is a dedicated businesswoman to her brides. She is responsive, flexible and timely. She worked with us through a postponement with professionalism and kindness, only to make our final wedding date an absolute dream come true. I cannot recommend Marion more to any bride looking to have stand-out florals a part of their wedding. You will be SO glad you booked with Marion.

Marion was the best ever. She is so talented and my flowers looked PERFECT. She truly made my vision and my dream wedding come to life. Even in such a big venue, her florals and candles made the space seem so intimate and so romantic. She has the magic touch and I would recommend her to anyone planning their wedding.

Blown away! She went so above and beyond. Everything was art, and my personal favorite was the flower arch. I saw it on her Instagram and it provided a magnificent backdrop for our ceremony and was later placed behind our sweetheart table. My wife’s bouquet popped in every shot (we had a very bright color palette and could not have been happier with that choice, as Marion really nailed the vivid colors). The centerpieces gave life to a large white ballroom. And when we told Marion that we were going to have two fewer centerpieces due to last minute dropouts, she repurposed the flowers and made gorgeous mantle pieces to place around the mansion. I have to say that while we did get some cheaper quotes, you cannot compare the quality of Something Blue with much lesser priced options; you truly get what you pay for. We met with three other florists and it was clear Marion was not only going to give us more personal attention than any other, but that she was legitimately excited to design arrangements with less traditional colors. Each time we reached out, she would call to go over any potential changes to make sure we were getting exactly what we wanted. And she is also the absolute sweetest person you will ever meet. You should have two takeaways from the pictures: 1) the arrangements are STUNNING; and 2) they are EXACTLY what we asked for. The second is more important because even if you don’t love what we chose, you should know that Marion will bring your vision to life precisely how you want it. For us, she showed us a beautiful sample, then asked which colors/flowers we wanted enhanced, which we wanted less of, etc. It was truly perfect. My only disappointment was I couldn’t take the arch home! Working with Marion and the final product were both better than anything I could have imagined.

My daughter's wedding was held at the Bourne Mansion , in Oakdale, NY, on 9/4/2021. Marion, from Something Blue , did an amazing job decorating the mansion, and we have received so many compliments on the floral decor in every room!! I wanted the WOW factor for the ceremony and the ballroom, and Marion certainly achieved it flawlessly. She was absolutely a pleasure with whom to work before and during the pandemic, and entertained every question and concern in such a timely fashion. Marion made our vision come to fruition! What gorgeous and magical floral displays! My daughter's bouquet was also exquisite, and just what she envisioned, walking down the aisle. The compliments keep coming and coming! I would give Marion 10 stars if I could!!!

Our husband & I had scheduled for Marion to do our flowers for our wedding but when Covid happened, we ended up doing a small backyard wedding. Fast forward a year, we wanted to celebrate our 1 year anniversary doing a photoshoot at the De Seversky Mansion and when we asked her to be apart of our special day, she did not hesitate at all. From the moment we met her until the day of the photoshoot, she has been so accommodating, gracious and willing to help in any way she could. The flowers were absolutely stunning and exactly what we wanted. She went above and beyond and we are very thankful that she was a part of our day. Anyone who is trying to find a florist, do not hesitate, CALL HER!! she is outstanding, so personable and friendly and its just a bonus that her flowers are breathtaking!! Thank you Marion :)

Flowers were breathtaking! With postponing, I had been dreaming of the flowers for over two years! My bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets and guys flowers were perfection. The ballroom and ceremony flowers were outstanding. I am so happy and everything came out stunning. Thank you!!

What can I say about Marion, we have been working with her for the past two years as my daughter’s wedding was postponed from two years ago until this past Saturday, July 25. Her flowers are the most luxurious and according to all my guests the fullest flowers they have ever seen. Throughout the whole process Marion made sure that we were happy with everything that we had chosen. Her compassion and kindness is what makes her stand out from the other floral vendors. She takes so much pride in her work and personalizes all her orders for each happy bride. My daughter and I were extremely happy with her throughout the whole process and she made us feel like we were the only ones that she was working with. Marion is truly professional, compassionate and makes all of her beautiful ideas come to life!

Marion made our dreams a reality!!! She is the best at what she does and was a pleasure to deal with throughout the planning process. My wife had prepared a few photos and ideas of what she was hoping for, and everything exceeded our expectations, and was spectacular! Marion also coordinated our table decor and left us with 0 responsibility for set up/clean up. I definitely recommend Something Blue for any couple who wants their wedding to be remembered forever by their guests.

From the first look at my flowers while getting ready, to the grand ballroom reveal, we were blown away! Marion's work was unparalleled. My grandmother keeps staring at photos of my bouquet. Marion was even able to tie my grandfather's (who passed away) wedding ring into my bouquet. We have been inside Flowerfield (our venue) often during the planning stages. Considering we have had to move our date a year because of COVID, we had many meetings there! The way Marion decorated Flowerfield made it look like a brand new place. My husband and I walked into the ballroom for the first time and were absolutely blown away. Between the table floral arrangements, uplighting, and the elaborate ceiling installation that Marion was able to pull off, it looked like an absolute fairytale. All of the little touches Marion added in were amazing! The flowers on the cake looked gorgeous, the sweetheart table display was adorable & the loose flowers around the ice sculpture made it pop! We had a banner from my shower that we wanted to display and Marion was able to hand it for us and provide stunning arrangements for around it! Honestly the pictures should speak for themselves. Marion was a delight to work with and we would want to work with her in the future for any event we might host!

Flowers came out beautiful. Slightly overpriced I believe. I wish we were able to see a sample of our centerpieces before the day. Also my bouquet was very similar to my bridesmaids and I wish she made it stand out just a little more.

Marion is the best! From the bouquets to the table pieces, everything was exactly what I wanted. I wanted peonies in the bouquets and even with the end of the season, she made it happen! I highly recommend Something Blue for their great communication, EXCELLENT work, and more!!!

We were told by many that Marion at Something Blue is THE best florist in the area, but didn’t believe it until we saw her arrangements for our wedding. Her centerpieces were unreal and absolutely breathtaking. The bouquets and additional flowers were all complimenting and gorgeous. We were concerned with the ballroom at Bourne Mansion looking empty with our 50 person covid wedding, but the beautiful candelabras and full gorgeous arrangements that Marion used completely transformed and filled the room. I found myself staring at the centerpieces throughout the night completely in awe. Marion far exceeded my vision for my wedding!

Marion and her team did an amazing job for our September 26th 2020 wedding. Due to COVID we had to make several changes throughout the planning process and she was flexible, understanding and wonderful to work with. I grew up in the plant industry with a vast knowledge on flowers and a very particular style preference with arrangements and Marion really outdid herself and took my ideas and executed them in the most magical way. I would highly recommend Something Blue Floral to anyone looking for exceptional arrangements for any special event.

We can't thank Marion and her team enough for creating such perfect flowers for my wedding. She designed our beautiful bouquets, chuppah, flowers for our wedding cake, and center pieces. They really elevated the event space and made our wedding feel extra special. Marion was so easy to work with and really has an eye for making our day as beautiful as can be. I really couldn't have made my day happen without her. She was fast at communicating with me and didn't give up on me despite the pandemic happening. Although there was doubt about having our wedding proceeding as planned, Marion supported me all the way as I didn't want to postpone. I highly recommend Something Blue Florals (Marion and her team) for anyone needing flowers for any occasion. I will definitely keep her in mind for any events in the future!

I can't recommend Marion enough! She went above and beyond her duties to ensure that my wedding was beautiful despite all the (MANY) changes that we faced given the pandemic. She was always available through email or phone call and was super flexible and patient with this frazzled bride. I most appreciate that I put my full trust in her and everything ended up PERFECT and GORGEOUS. Her attention to detail was apparent. She truly enhanced our small wedding with the beautiful chuppah and floral arrangements. THANK YOU, Marion!

Marion's work stood out to me from first glance. She has such an artistic eye, solid understanding of trends and color balance, and a keen interest in understanding her clients and representing them in the floral arrangements she puts together! Our flowers were stunning, and Marion worked with us to build something truly unique and memorable with a limited budget. Marion is also attentive to detail, reliable, and flexible. She runs a tight ship, and as a type-A bride, I thoroughly appreciated that. Above all, she is an artist. I've unfollowed most of my wedding vendors on Instagram because I don't care to keep seeing their content, but I keep following Something Blue because all their posts are so fabulous!

My wedding was yesterday 11/10/19 and Something Blue Floral Events absolutely made the day look and feel special. Hands down A+++. Worth every penny. Marion the owner, was easy to work with and saw my vision. I was looking for a rustic, whimsical feel, with hanging greenery that incorporates my colors, and she nailed it. My bouquets were perfect, centerpieces were a show stopper, and so many people commented on how beautiful everything was. I know people say flowers are a waste because they die, but this was definitely necessary. Would recommend her over and over again.

We were planning our wedding from out of town and Marion was fabulous to work with! From the moment we met her, we knew our floral vision was in the best hands. She was very hands-on. Over the 11 months of planning, she kept great communication with us. We wanted a Late Spade inspired color pallet and she blew it out of the park! I think the most compliments we got about our wedding was the floral arrangements. We were absolutely blown away when we arrived to our venue to see our dreams and ideas come to life EXACTLY how we invisioned... And that's pretty hard to come across these days! I would recommend Marion ten times over to anyone looking for a florist in Long Island. She is a visual genius.

Marion and her staff at Something Blue are fabulous! From the beginning she understood my vision fully and executed it beautifully. All my guests are raving about the flowers! They were really exquisite. The bouquets were so amazing, I cannot not even express the amount of gratitude I have for Marion and how she created a perfect backdrop to my dream Wedding! Thank you Marion from the bottom of my heart! I couldn’t have asked for more!

Marion and her team really brought my ideas to life for all the flowers. I went for an all peony bouquet and it was more amazing than I could imagine. All the guests loved the table arrangements and asked to take them home at the end of the night.

Marion is absolutely amazing. She is my wedding florist and I instantly connected with her at the expo at my venue. We hired her to do my bridal shower too and I cannot say enough good things. She was able to produce exactly what I was looking for based on my sketches and inspiration photos and worked with us to give me what I wanted. Her choice of florals together was absolutely perfect and just seeing the arrangements together bought tears to my eyes it was just so stunning. The favors were also beautiful. We purchased the vases but she made the arrangements and they were arranged so lovely. Designing comes naturally for her. She helped to add a little touch of greens on my lingerie display too to help tie it all together. I cannot sing Marion’s praises enough! She is one of the most genuine people you will ever meet! I cannot wait to work with her for my wedding.

The flowers for our wedding were great! I got exactly what I wanted in our arrangements. The blooms were very high quality and were clearly all arranged professionally. All of our guests were very impressed!

Five stars. Marion is without a doubt one of the most talented people I have ever come across. She is a pleasure to work with and she really goes above and beyond. Our flowers were incredible and we will never forget the breathtaking circle arch, our glorious centerpieces and all the little details Marion put into our day. I can not recommend her highly enough.

Marion & Something Blue Floral was such a relief in a sea of wedding planning stress! After only one meeting at her cute LI shop, she knew the exact look & feel I wanted for our wedding day. I never had to check in on Marion to ensure that she was on track for the big day. Any update or question I had while planning, she replied promptly and made me feel so assured that she had it all under control. She was also kind to my mom & worked with us to be able to have beautiful flowers while staying on budget!! Thank you endlessly Marion!!

WASTED OUR TIME. At first we thought they were nice, but they have NO experience. Nothing creatively to offer. Very Bland. They recommened them at Bourne Mansion but they were so expensive and had a lack of individualism for our wedding. Very Limited. The other flowerr companies just seem to copy each other and this place then beomes a dead end. Small flower place with little to no staff made us worry.

Marion and her team are just beyond words! My husband and I got married on November 17th, 2018 and hired Something Blue as our florist and we couldn’t have found a better florist if we had tried! Marion saw our vision and replicated it perfectly! Not to mention, she gave us bubble bowls over the dance floor with roses and candles that were to die for!! If you need a florist, do yourself a favor and go find Marion at Something Blue!! You will not be disappointed.
