Tara L Folker
Owner
Tara is a long time flower lover and plant geek.. She was a rambunctious toddler, and decided she would get a head start in the horticulture industry by eating her mothers house plants. This mostly resulted in the poison control center being called repeatedly, but perhaps also instilled in her the love of all things green and growing. Tara has had her hands in the dirt and been playing with flowers, creatures, and plants her whole life. However, she has had no formal training, as she feels this would ruin her.

After following Splints & Daisies on Instagram for years and being obsessed with her work, I was finally able to hire her for my own wedding, and I'm SO glad we did! We were SO obsessed with the turn out, as were all of our guests. I asked her for dark purple & burgundy flowers with lots of greenery & moss (enchanted forest/moody vibes) and she delivered beyond our expectations! The overhead installation, vines creeping down the aisle, and moss details... everything was so perfect and so much more beautiful than we could've envisioned. She was also extremely responsive and a pleasure to work with! If you're picky about the types of flowers you like, and want that certain style that not your average florists can accomplish... I promise you, Tara can! Thank you SO MUCH, Tara! <3

I highly recommend Splint and Daisies. The flowers at my wedding were absolutely breathtaking. I sent her my inspiration photos, and she wasI able to make them a reality. Everything was easy, and she communicated with me, making sure I didn't want to change anything.

From start to finish, Tara was great to work with. She truly listened to our vision and brought it to life. The flowers were stunning—every arrangement was thoughtfully crafted and more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Tara is super professional, organized, great communicator, and so easy to work with. She made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable! We received so many compliments on our florals and it made our venue looks so airy and whimsical. Thank you for being a huge part of our day!

I met with several florists in the area and nothing came even close to Tara and her florals! I had a vision and Tara not only made it reality, she exceeded everything I was looking for. Our guest have not stopped talking about how gorgeous our wedding florals were - I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to stop talking about them or staring at the photos 😍
On top of the jaw dropping florals, Tara is one of the sweetest and most thoughtful people. She is willing to go the extra mile to make your day extra special.
I could not recommend Splints and Daisies enough for your event, I promise you will not regret it!

My husband and I highly recommend Splints & Daisies! Tara was a pleasure to work with. She is professional, an excellent communicator, and flexible. We had some ideas when we first connected with Tara but had no clear floral vision. But after a brief meeting, she filled in the design gaps and over-delivered the day of.
We decided to move our outdoor ceremony indoors the night before our wedding. With short notice, Splints & Daisies was able to modify the ceremony backdrop to fit within the new space, and we couldn’t have been more impressed by the final product. Our backdrop was one of my favorite wedding day details. All of the floral arrangements were heavily complimented by our guests.
We were amazed by everything Splints & Daisies did. Tara and her team are gifted. If we were to do it all again, we’d still choose Splints & Daisies as our florist.

Splints and daisies created the most beautifully dark and moody floral arrangements for our wedding on Nov 3 2023 and we could not be happier! They were exactly as we envisioned and so much more. I asked Tara to create a greenery heavy, dark and moody vibe and believe she delivered exactly that. I will recommend her to all my friends for their future events.

AMAZING humans to work with. When looking at florist sites, S&D was the only one that stood out. Their beautiful story, creative and bold design was what pulled me in. Our wedding was very fall, very October, very bold with all of the colors. Tara was so communicative throughout the 2 year planning process. I apologized so many times for all of my questions and changes made but she assured my feelings and questions were totally valid. I cherish that quality in a professional. I am still obsessed with how she made my vision come to life. The pricing was more than reasonable and absolutely worth it.

i met tara a few years ago and knew immediately she would be the florist for my wedding. i just got married 2 weeks ago and, while i knew she would perfect the vision i had for our florals, she still managed to blow me away. i barely had any direction to give her (because she doesn't need it) and it was so emotional getting to see what she came up with as i stepped into the space for our private vows. i cried about the flowers almost as much as i did about my husband.

Tara is an amazing florist and words cannot fully describe how incredible I think her work is. I deeply admire her committment to sustainability -- that was one of the first things that set her apart from other florists. Second, I love how easy it was to communicate with Tara. My only requests were the colors, the inclusion of red roses, and having a more loose bouquet. But other than that, I didn't have any specific ideas that I wanted to be recreated. The florals were all her original work! She had amazing suggestions that elevated the look of the wedding ceremony& reception, PLUS by going with her suggestions I was able to make the most of my floral budget. People wouldn't stop commenting on how uniquely stunning the flowers were. I would 100% recommend Tara to other brides!

The flowers at our wedding were above and beyond anything I could possibly have dreamed. Tara and her team transformed the Tudor Style Manor we had our wedding in into an overgrown fairytale scene. She had the absolutely brilliant idea to have my bridesmaids carry lanterns with flowers cascading off. It was a literal stroke of genius. Wish I could get married again just so I could hire Splints and Daisies. Transformative.

Tara was absolutely fantastic to work with. Incredibly responsive and respectful of my time. Knew exactly when to let me think things through on my own vs when to help provide a gentle bit of guidance to better achieve the vision. And then absolutely nailed the final product. I would 100% recommend Splints & Daisies to anyone and I will absolutely be keeping them on my list for any future event needs.

Our wedding planner recommended Tara to us based upon the vibes that we were going for for our wedding (dark, moody, fall) and Tara took everything we talked about and went for it. Our flowers were absolutely stunning. From the personal bouquets my bridal party and I had, to the flowers on our chuppah, and our centerpieces it was all absolutely beautiful and breathtaking and everything that we could have dreamed of. She was also so accommodating when I forgot about corsages for my MIL and GMIL and about petals for the flower girl. She was truly a gem and I also really appreciate her sustainable practices in how she does floral arrangements. My husband and I didn't have a "green" wedding wedding but we wanted to be as environmentally friendly as possible without compromising the aesthetic choices that we wanted to make and Tara was perfect for that since she tries to only use local in season blooms. Thank you for making our special day so absolutely beautiful!

We cannot express our gratitude enough for the absolutely unreal work Tara created for our wedding day. The florals were the most important element of the day for me what Tara gave us was beyond my wildest dreams. There are truly no words to describe how grateful I am that she was a part of our day. I am in absolute awe of the talent of Tara and her team.
I am going to be dreaming about the sweetheart installation and the bouquets for the rest of my life. The tables were literal perfection. I have seen hundreds of weddings in my career and literally nothing will compare to what she did. Every single person was in amazement over what was created and I will literally be shouting from the rooftops that there is truly only one floral designer any couple should consider.
Tara seriously made my wedding vision come true and I am forever grateful. She is truly one of a kind and we are so lucky to have worked with her.

I cannot recommend Tara enough for your wedding florals!!! She was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the entire planning process. When I had my initial call with her, I didn't know how to put into words my vision for our wedding florals but it felt like Tara just knew exactly what I wanted and I trusted her ideas from the beginning! I followed Tara on Instagram before booking with her, so I knew what great work she did and I was SO excited to see what she was going to do for our wedding. Tara left me speechless (I was actually like freaking out in excitement) when I got to the venue on our wedding day and saw her arrangements. I knew her work was exceptional but OMG she exceeded our expectations times a million. I still cannot believe the beautiful work she put together and we received SO many compliments from our guests!!! I truly don't know how she does it, but it's amazing and you should stop searching now and book Tara for your wedding. You will not regret it! Thanks for everything Tara!!!

My florals from Splints & Daisies were just beautiful 🌸🌼 Tara was lovely from our first conversation through wedding day. She entertained all our ideas and gave professional guidance where needed. And she really understood our late summer vibes. My bouquet was the most beautiful, but all the flowers were so fresh. They have the most fun, whimsical designs too!

The florals Tara designed for my wedding on 8/20/2022 at Terrain were absolutely breathtaking. My experience working with Tara could not have been better from our first intake call to the day of the wedding. I gave Tara some information about our wedding and trusted her to handle the design from there, and I am so incredibly glad I did, because I could never have even imagined anything as beautiful as what I received.
Tara worked with me to stay within my budget which was SO appreciated, but the end result certainly did not look like florals "on a budget". All the guests were blown away by them and jumped at the chance to take home table arrangements. I would work with splints & daisies again in a heartbeat and would encourage anyone who is thinking about it to go for it because you won't be sorry! Thank you Tara!!!

Run do not use this vendor! Tara this review is in response to your response to my husband, Shawn M. You stated the flowers purchased for my daughters wedding were donated to a nursing home but would not provide the name of the nursing home to us and then kept it as a tax write off after you kept our $5500. I will be reporting that to the IRS. You stated offering to supply flowers for another venue within reason location wise. We live in NJ not Lancaster and we were in the midst of the Omnicron virus and you were notified that myself, my husband and several guests contracted which is why the wedding was cancelled. The wedding venue, The Cork Factory offered a Monday or a Thursday afternoon to rescheduled her wedding and this also was not acceptable so we could not reschedule the event. You stated that everything was purchased and being delivered on Jan 10th (conversations of Jan 7th) when my daughter's wedding was planned for Jan 15th. You're very quick to quote your contract when it comes to an act of god, so i will also - we were promised fresh flowers for the wedding not week old flowers. I do not believe you donated these flowers to a nursing home unless they were the stage for the Rose Bowl. I was willing to meet you half way to cover your expenses and be reimbursed the balance but greed got the best of you and you should be ashamed of yourself. Your profile reads you have no professional training..... maybe you need to get some. I will continue to inform every consumer I can to not work with you. This was the 3rd time my daughter's wedding was cancelled she was left heartbroken yet again and I am out $5500 not to include what we lost from the venue. I will not go away , i will continue to tell everyone what you did. you took advantage of the bride's mother and father getting COVID a week before her wedding and then robbed us. I can only happen this never happens to you. Luckily, the pandemic may be coming to an end and if i have anything to do with it, you will never rob another family again.

I do not have enough words to express how much I love Tara's work. Her talent and creativity are unmatched. My jaw dropped when I saw the way the room looked after Tara worked her magic. It was breathtaking. She hung greenery from the ceiling throughout the entire room, which was no easy task. She spent nearly all day on a ladder to do so. And the actual floral arrangements were stunning. To this day people still mention how beautiful our florals were. Tara will not waste your time, she provided me with a quote within hours of chatting with her. She answered my emails in a timely fashion. She is straight to the point and as a bride I truly appreciated that. I have nothing, but great things to say about my experience with her.

This is not a business I would have anything to do with. The owner is condescending to her customers. In this time of pandemic and uncertainty, she puts all the risk on to the consumer. After reading so many reviews all over the web. I have absolutely no idea has she stays in business. I could not tell you about her product as we have never seen it. My daughter's wedding was postponed once with the COVID -19 outbreak. It was eventually canceled due to the mother and father (both fully vaccinated and boosted) of the bride contracting COVID for the second time. In the end, this person has no clue how to treat customers.

Thank you for expressing your concern, Shawn.
It was unfortunate that your daughter decide...
d to cancel her wedding just a few days before the event due to her parents having contracting Covid the week prior.
However, we had all supplies, products, and flowers in hand, paid for, and accounted for. Our signed contract was very clear as to how that would need to be handled.
We did the best to accommodate by offering to deliver the flowers to another local location, and our offer was not responded to. We could not deliver and install at the contracted venue, as you had also canceled the venue.
Bailey was an absolute joy to work with for 2 years, through a postponement too! She was a trooper.
I am happy to have been able to donate your flowers to a nursing home so they did not go to waste.
Best wishes to Bailey & Corey.

We had the most wonderful experience working with Tara at Splints and Daisies for our wedding at Terrain. Tara has such a talent for working with florals and provided the absolute most beautiful set up I could have imagined. The process with working her was so seamless. I provided a budget and my likes/dislikes and Tara did an exceptional job! I could not have imagined anything better. Her services are top notch and prices very reasonable for her talent.

All I had to do was look at a few photos of Tara’s work online to know that she was the florist for me. Her work was unlike anything I had ever seen. As an artist myself, I knew I wanted to work with a florist who was also a true artist that approaches all of the work for her clients, with a fresh take on their ideas. After we met her, the decision to book her as our florist had only solidified further. She was incredibly friendly and down to earth and completely receptive and enthusiastic about all of my husband and i’s ideas. Which, only made us all the more excited to see what she would come up with for us. Let me just tell you that she blew us and all of our guests out of the water. I wanted to keep all of her work a secret as she was working on setting it all up so I could take it all in after it had all come together. It was the hardest thing I had to do all day, to not to spoil it for myself. The only time I cried all day was when she brought my bouquet in to the bridal suite for me to see.
My husband and I were one of the first couples to get married after the pandemic shut everything down back in early 2020. We wound up having to postpone our big day 3 separate times. And with each postponement, I worried most about losing Tara as a vendor if other couples had already booked her on our new dates. She was the one vendor I could not picture my day without. Luckily it all worked out and she brought all of our visions to life even better than we had envisioned them ourselves.
Overall, I could not recommend Splints and Daisies more than I do. If you want a truly unique take on your ideas and for you guests to still be talking about your florals weeks later, look no farther than Tara. I would give her more stars if it were possible.

Tara is a true floral artist, and I can't recommend Splints & Daisies more! From our first conversation to the end of our wedding night, Tara had everything organized, under control, and executed beautifully. She was super communicative and incredibly helpful during the planning phases, and created stunning custom designs with minimal input from me (she asks all the right questions). I mean, just look at the real-time reaction photos of me seeing my bouquet for the first time! The floral designs were some of the biggest WOW factors of our wedding - every single guest commented on it - and yet, it was one of the simplest aspects of the day to plan and prepare for. Trust Tara's suggestions and expertise. Her work is PURE MAGIC.

I’m a wedding photographer so I have a review from the vendor’s perspective - Tara is the best at what she does. She really is. The fact that she uses all locally grown material is amazing and she’s so supportive of other small businesses and vendors. I have her at the top of my preferred vendor list for my own clients and I get so excited when they hire her. Her craftsmanship is unique and you can tell it was her work without having to be told. She makes fine art floral pieces rather than just standard bouquets or centerpieces. I can’t recommend her enough.

Splints and Daisies helped me with my wedding flowers and that was the best decision of my whole planning process! Tara was so kind, knowledgeable, helpful and with floral skills, so talented. She helped me maneuver through the process of rescheduling with the utmost professionalism and fairness. She worked with transparency and respect, being careful to explain everything, as we were all pivoting and figuring out how to handle the pandemic. I highly recommend Tara and her team, the level of talent is sky high and they are just such a joy to work. The wedding flowers were beyond gorgeous and the most memorable part of my day aside from getting married!

Not worth the money that was spent. Did not follow the contract . When we mentioned this, she didn’t handle it professionally. While some flowers were perfect, others were a complete joke. Truly just not worth the thousands of dollars spent on flowers. Customer service / experience was terrible, and it just truly was not what we expected and were promised. My husbands boutonniere fell off even before dinner was served. And the best mans boutonniere was falling off DURING our ceremony. The flowers were wrong for the maid of honor, and mother of the bride. There also was not a boutonniere made for my brother, it was a corsage instead, that WE had to make into a boutonniere, less than hour from the ceremony start time. Overall, it’s just not worth it. Wouldn’t recommend.

As most Brides know, this year has been a journey figuring out next steps due to COVID-19. Although we had to ultimately post-pone our wedding, Tara has been really responsive, accommodating, and helpful in a time when not all vendors have been. Even before the discussions to postpone, she was very attentive in listening to my vision and I have every confidence she will execute on the plans flawlessly next June when *hopefully* we'll be able to have our wedding. Looking forward to working with Tara over the next few months.

Tara and her team work absolute magic with florals. I mean serious magic. From only communicating over the phone, email, and looking at my Pinterest board she went above and beyond my expectations. She does not skimp on what she provides and everything is amazing quality. The fireplace was the main focal point of both the ceremony and reception and she did not disappoint on dressing it up and making it look absolutely gorgeous. And ugh, the hanging greenery😍 You are getting the best of the best when you book with Tara!

I didn’t have a particularly detailed vision of our wedding flowers, so the best thing I did was hire Tara. You can rest assured that no matter what she does, it will be magical. I put the most impactful décor of my wedding into her capable hands and she more than delivered. She was honest about what flowers (and greens!) cost, and helped me figure out how to get the most bang for my buck. When our table situation changed a few weeks before the wedding, she was flexible and solution-oriented. I’d hire her again tomorrow.

I have been working with Tara for about a year now - first for our initial wedding date of August 2020, and now as a pandemic bride with a August 2021 date. Tara's work first captured my attention on Instagram - it's incredibly beautiful, vivid, and lively. She was willing to work within our budget to accommodate all of our requests. I fully appreciate her transparency and recommendations based on our vision for the wedding. As we don't have a planner or designer, Tara's floral work would truly be the spotlight (and a beautiful one at that). In the past week, we moved our wedding to 2021 due to the pandemic. Tara was incredibly responsive and adaptive to our new date - we are thrilled to be working with her in 2021 and appreciate her open lines of communication & artistic vision.
August 2021 Update: If you are getting married in Pennsylvania, book Splints & Daisies! You will not regret it! Tara was absolutely amazing to work with - she's a florist who is passionate about her product, helping your vision come to life, and she knows her stuff. We were originally supposed to have our wedding in August 2020 and had to reschedule due to the pandemic. Nearing the decision date last year, Tara was incredibly responsive, understanding, and made our postponement very easy to navigate. When we arrived at our venue this year, my jaw dropped when I saw the florals she had prepared. Every piece from table arrangements to bouquets was absolutely stunning. The biggest comment we got all night was "these flowers are amazing!" I can't say enough great things about Tara - she truly brought our entire day to life. Thank you, Splints & Daisies!

Unfortunately, I am a pandemic bride that has had many sleepless nights over if it would be safe to have my fall 2020 wedding. Ultimately, my fiance and I decided it was in the best interest of the health and safety of our loved ones to proactively postpone our wedding to 2021. I was so upset at the idea of possibly losing Tara and her beautiful work on our big day (especially since florals are so important to me) but we were lucky enough that she was available for our new date! Tara made the postponement process so easy and seamless for us. Not once did she question or contest our decision to proactively postpone and that kind of understanding and humility meant the world to us, especially now. The wedding industry has been hit hard by this crisis and it can be easy for the stress of it to take over anyone, but Tara has navigated our situation with grace and professionalism. For that, we are so grateful and can't wait for our beautiful florals next year! Though we didn't actually have our wedding yet, I'd recommend Tara to anyone just going off our experience with her during these tough times.

I can not recommend Tara enough. She was beyond professional, helpful and patient. I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted from the beginning but ended up making some changes a couple months before the wedding. She always replied promptly to all my emails and was very flexible. Tara took my vision and made it more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. She really is an artist. I still cannot get over the details of my bouquet. Choosing her will be one of the best decisions you make.

Although we didn’t have a full service wedding our flowers were still beautiful. Tara does mostly fill service but accommodated me willingly. We had her do my bouquet, the bridesmaids bouquets, boutonnières, and two flower crowns. Communication with Tara was super easy and she was there every step. My dad picked up the flowers day of our wedding and had nothing but nice things to say about her. There was a spot of some dead flowers in my bouquet but we just cut them out. But other than that Tara did an absolutely amazing job.

I am still speechless over my wedding flowers. Tara took my vision and made it more beautiful than I could have ever possibly imagined. She truly is an artist and a florist combined and my day wouldn't have been as perfect as it was if it wasn't for her. So many guests came up to my husband and I and told us the flowers were the most beautiful they have ever seen and we agree! Tara completely transformed our venue into a magical, enchanting, bohemian dream. I can't recommend her enough and several of our guests who are getting married in 2020 wanted her contact info and reached out to her before our wedding was even over. Stop thinking about it and hire Splints & Daisies. It'll be the best decision you make, besides marrying your soulmate. :)

Tara was so enjoyable to work with! She took all of our changes in stride and ended up producing flowers more beautiful than we could have imagined! Last-minute changes would normally freak anyone out (they did for me) but Tara had no problem showing her creativity and designing a set up on the sweetheart table instead of a swing that was never made. The altar/arbor setup, sweetheart table, bride's bouquet, flower girl bouquet, and flower girl crown were all absolutely gorgeous. Everyone could not stop talking about them! I recommend Tara to anyone who even mentions florals, for weddings or otherwise!

The flowers are such an important part of the wedding day and create the - wow ! -moment as guests walk into the reception. Tara was so easy to work with and shared many creative ideas with us in the planning process. Her experience speaks for itself - the flowers and arrangements were unique and just perfect for the space and other things we incorporated into the celebration. Tara and the Splints & Daisies team - perfect!

Splints & Daisies makes some of the most lovely flower arrangements.I found Tara's website on google and then I saw her Instagram and I instantly knew she was the perfect choice for me. I discussed colors, flowers, and shared my Pinterest with her and she made it come alive the day of my wedding. She is also very flexible if you have any additional request after the initial conversation. I definitely recommend Splints & Daisies if you're having a wedding or any other event.

Being a creative professional myself, I was recommend Tara by the venue for her creativity and ability to set herself apart. After our initial meeting I had zero doubts or hesitations and booked her the same day. Tara knows her stuff and is beyond talented which made this part of the wedding planning process truly worry-free. We discussed the general theme and colors for the wedding, she made helpful suggestions based on our budget, and with absolute confidence I let her have creative freedom over the floral design.. Yes, I had no idea what the flowers were going to look like until the day of our wedding.. And honestly I was overwhelmed with emotion when I first walked into the reception area, it was better than I could have ever imagined.. Everything from the boutonnieres to the centerpieces was perfect, and I wouldn't have changed a single thing!

I saw Tara’s work on Instagram and knew I wanted her as my florist. I gave her a general idea of what I was looking for but she completely blew me away. The florals are one of the most memorable pieces of our wedding and we received so many compliments on them. I highly recommend Tara for your wedding flowers - you will not be disappointed!

Working with Tara as our wedding florist was one of the best planning decisions we made. Describing the type of flowers we liked (without knowing the specific names) and explaining our vision wasn’t easy, but Tara nailed it and exceeded our expectations! The final product was nothing short of amazing and we couldn’t have been happier with the outcome of everything!

Can I give her 6 stars? Tara was fantastic. Considering my main wedding color does not come in a flower and that I didn’t have a specific picture of what I wanted, I gave Tara a general idea of what we wanted. What she came up with was just perfect! The bouquets that she came up with looked amazing and I couldn’t have asked for better. Her style is unique and she was just a wonderful person to work with.

Tara did such an amazing job for our wedding. She brought my vision to life perfectly and I could not have been happier with the floral arrangements at the reception, not to mention my bouquet was a dream. She worked within our budget and was responsive and thoughtful throughout the process. Thank you thank you thank you!

Tara Folker is hands-down the best at what she does! She did the flowers for my sister's May 2016 wedding, and we reached out to her as soon as we were engaged for our November 2018 wedding. Her stunning flowers were definitely the highlight and focal point of our wedding decor, and they couldn't have been more perfect! Highly recommend.

Creative, Flexible, Confident, Accommodating, Talented, CANNOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT TARA! As a bride who honestly knows nothing about flowers, Tara took the lead and helped me bring my "classic winter white" vision to life. As a type A bride, I was very involved with my other vendors, but had full confidence after meeting with Tara and seeing her work, that the flowers would be just perfect. And guess what? They were! If you're debating working with Splints & Daisies... don't.. Just say "I do!"

Tara was a truly incredible vendor to work with! We found her via Instagram in very early stages of our wedding planning process and reached out immediately! She replied to email communication so quickly, which as a very Type A bride, was so important to put me at ease. We had a 24-month engagement, so we wanted to get our preferred vendors booked right away so that we could save some stress later in the process. Tara from Splints&Daisies was the second vendor we locked down. I went to meet her while in the Lancaster area to talk through details and felt that she understood my vision immediately. Florals were one of the only things that I was able to put fully out of sight, out of mind. I knew that whatever color scheme, design or installation that she put together would be perfect. I had 100% trust and confidence in her to deliver without any direction. What I didn’t expect was that her floral installation would actually EXCEED my expectations. When I showed up at our venue, The Booking House, my bouquet was already in the bridal suite and it was absolutely perfect. As I walked upstairs to the second floor and saw her hanging tree branches from the ceiling, I was speechless. I wanted the room to feel like the Secret Garden, bringing the outdoors inside for a moody fall evening, and that is exactly what we received. Words don’t appropriately describe the way her work made me feel. It was truly breathtaking, and made the entire vision of my wedding day come to life. Truly magical. She was such a dream to work with - professional, kind, organized and one of the most creative people I have ever met. Five stars is not enough to articulate the level of service that you are getting by hiring Tara and her team. The Splints&Daisies execution is unmatched, and we are so grateful that they were able to make our day so special.

We were going for an enchanted forest theme and HOLY CANNOLI did Tara deliver. My mom casually mentioned she wanted the place to be "dripping" in flowers and Tara delivered in the most spectacular way. She made us a gorgeous greenery archway of our dreams, hung greenery from the rafters, did a ridiculous fireplace piece, and made the most gorgeous nests of greenery and flowers for the tables. The bouquets and boutonnieres were divine. I don't have words for how gorgeous she made our venue. It was plain and open before she arrived and she blew the roof off the place with floral decor. The best part is that I barely had to give her direction, she has amazing style and knows exactly what flowers will look best. Put your wedding in her hands and you will not regret it for a second. She is the absolute best.

Tara is a true artist. She took exactly what I had envisioned for our wedding and made it a reality. The bouquets were each different and unique and the floral arrangements were divine. I can't stop hearing about how beautiful and creative they were. Tara really listened and made my boho/ country style a reality. She is easy to work with and communication was seamless. The day went without a hitch and her team set up and were done quickly.
If you are looking for a very unique boho style- GO WITH TARA.

Tara is seriously incredibly talented. In my opinion, her quality of work for the price she charges is unbelievable. She installed a giant floral arrangement for my wedding and provided huge gorgeous centerpieces. They were jW dropping. She had great ideas for me to save money on my flowers and she was so kind even when I changed my mind approximately 4,000 time :) I couldn’t recommend her enough.

Choosing Splints and Daisies as our florist for our wedding day was one of the best decisions we made! Tara was the sweetest to work with and SO talented! She knew exactly what I was going for and brought my vision to life! She thought of every detail and went above and beyond for every arrangement. My bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets, apple cider bar garland, bar garland, centerpieces - everything was so magical! You can tell she loves what she does, it shows in all of her work! I'd work with Tara again in a heartbeat!

Tara of Splints & Daisies is a true floral artist! Give her an idea of what you like and she brings it to life beyond what you could have imagined. From our first meeting, my husband and I felt totally comfortable with her. She is super friendly and down-to-earth. We talked about flowers we liked and brought a Pinterest board of the vibe we were interested in, but we put full trust in Tara to do her thing. Going into our wedding day, we loved that we would get to be surprised by all the florals and it was more beautiful than we could have imagined! My bouquet was a gorgeous floral statement, free flowing with wildflowers and a large protea as the wow factor. We had discussed doing something special and different for my husband being in the plant science industry, and she created the most epic floral bowtie with real flowers and in our wedding colors. From the bouquets to the centerpiece garlands with flowers to the boutonnieres and pomanders, everything was stunning! She even had some beautiful flowers that were able to be used in my hair and really completed my bridal look. And flowers for our cake that were the perfect compliment. Tara's style accentuates nature's beauty and we loved that she also focuses on bringing you the best local flowers and using green methods that reduce waste. Our guests still to this day over a year later bring up how beautiful all of our flowers were, especially how cool the floral bow tie was! Tara was SO awesome to work with and we ecstatically recommend her!!!

My flowers were GORGEOUS! We picked up the flowers from the shop the morning of the wedding and everything was ready to go <3. I had ordered a bouquet for myself , sisters , a flower crown for my niece and boutonnieres (4 all together.) I still have a week to go until I get the pictures back but I cannot wait to share them. My wedding day was so wonderful. Thank you Tara!
