I was absolutely blown away by my weddings flowers Careth and her team did for my October wedding! The florals and greenery was breathtakingly beautiful - I got SO many compliments on my wedding flowers and rehearsal night. Careth completely brought my vision to life! I couldn't recommend Stems more :)
LOVED the way my flowers turned out! Lauryn at Stems + Co captured my vision perfectly and absolutely exceeded my expectations
Careth and the rest of her team at Stems Flower Design are amazing! As someone with pretty limited knowledge about florals and not much time to plan, we placed a lot of trust in Careth in helping us bring our vague vision to life. Not only did she do an incredible job of helping guide us in what we needed, but she far exceeded our expectations in what we ever could have hoped for on our wedding day. Ever since our wedding, so many people have reached out to us asking who provided the florals. We still cannot believe how beautiful they turned out, and how special they made our day. We are so appreciative of Careth and her team, and we would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat.
Lauryn and the Stems + Co team bought my east coast garden party theme to life! Lauryn was communicative, super flexible last minute when rehearsal dinner florals fell through as well as pivoting the days before due to rain plans. She offered advice when I wasn't 100% sure on where to start and was always positive and upbeat. On top of that her florals were a work of art and brought so much joy to my wedding day! The arrangements she built and bud vases she created truly warmed the church and tent, they were so unique and special. I loved my bouquet and my bridesmaids stems so much. I can't wait to get all my details photos back to look at them again and again! Thank you Lauryn!
Stems + Co did such a beautiful job for our September wedding! From the very beginning, Lauryn helped bring my vision to life. I was not always sure how to articulate exactly what I wanted but she was able to build something beautiful all stemming from one inspiration flower. She made collaboration really fun and easy, and dealt with the changes I threw her way with grace and kindness. Again, I do not know how she created the exact dream I pictured in my head since I was not even sure how to describe it, but somehow she did it! I also cannot begin to count the amount of compliments we received on our florals. From the color combinations to the uniqueness of the flowers themselves, everything was absolutely stunning!
The ladies at Stems + Co did an incredible job of our wedding flowers on 4/6/19. We didn’t really have much of an idea of what we wanted flower- wise but Lauryn & Zoe were helpful and suggestive in the right ways and put together beautiful arrangements that were exactly as we wished. Thank you so much!
Stems + Co created beautiful floral arrangements for my wedding. Lauryn and Zoe were so wonderful to work with along the way, and their designs are stunning.
I can't say I knew about florals when I embarked on planning my summer, rustic barn wedding in Vermont, but I knew that I wanted them to play a central role in the decor. Obviously this was a tall order! With little direction, Lauryn and Zoe were able to bring style and beauty to our day in a way that was better than I could have imagined! They were professional, timely and helped us stay on budget while taking care of all of the details. I highly recommend them for all of your floral needs!
We couldn't have picked anyone better to help make our day so beautiful. I knew the look we were going for and was very specific with what I had in mind, and Lauryn and Zoe completely brought my vision to life, but also exceeded my every expectation. After meeting and explaining what I was looking for, I felt incredibly comfortable and confident in entrusting them with such a big part of our day. Then the day of, they truly did not disappoint- Every detail was put together so beautifully and I couldn't be happier with how every floral piece looked that day. They are so easy to work with and put me at ease at even the most stressful of wedding planning times, but they also deliver the most gorgeous flowers - I could not recommend working with Lauryn and Zoe enough.
I love Stem & Co so much that I booked my wedding date around their availability.
For me the flowers were one of the most important parts of my wedding and I knew that Lauryn & Zoe would make my floral dreams come true. The process was minimal and easy, the trust was there. I just knew everything would be gorgeous!
I can’t say enough about how talented and creative they are and they are a delight to work with. The flowers were exquisite.
Can't say enough good things about Zoe and Lauryn. They did a phenomenal job with our May 2018 wedding in CT and were a pleasure to work with throughout the process. They took the things we were looking for and crafted a beautiful proposal that was far and above what we expected, and they offered helpful guidance along the way to tie together all of the elements of our wedding into a cohesive style. They were also really great at working with us to stay within our budget, and when the weather took a turn for the worse, they changed our arrangements for an indoor ceremony that looked amazing. By the time we arrived at the venue mid-day, all of the flowers were already in place, we didn't have to think about a thing! Highly recommend!
Yes yes and yes!! We used stems and co for our 6/2/18 wedding and can’t say enough good things. I am not in LOVE with flowers but I know they’re important to make the feel of a wedding. I went into the first meeting (at their adorable shop) feeling somewhat decided on my vibe which was bright colors and Palm Springs inspired and they were able to completely fill it in. They had the fabulous idea to use mini pineapples for the boutonnières which I loved and they had amazing flower ideas to make the bouquets pop. They’re so personable and pay attention to budget, advising me when it was more cost effective to order my own candles and such. The flowers for our wedding really made the whole thing and everyone was raving about how much fun they were. I can’t forget to mention the arbor which was incredible! I was so excited to give our business to a local place with lady bosses and they didn’t disappoint! Communicating was easy and the job was so well done :)
Fantastic. The flowers were perfect, better than I imagined. Communication was a little slow via e-mail, but they always got back to me and answered my questions. They even accommodated some last minute requests. Love them.
I can't say enough amazing things about working with Zoe & Lauryn at Stems & Co for our summer outdoor wedding. We were on a tight budget but wanted to find a florist that could create an environment that was beautiful, relaxed, a bit boho, and a bit unique. Maybe more importantly, we also wanted someone easy to work that we could trust so this whole planning process could be easier. I found them on The Knot after coming across florist after florist that was a bit too traditional and done-up for our vibe, and after seeing their instagram, having a quick initial convo, and seeing their initial proposal, we knew they were perfect. They were super responsive, collaborative, and worked entirely within our budget to create something that was effortlessly beautiful and more stunning than we could have ever imagined. Months after our wedding we still had guests commenting on our flowers and how uniquely done and stunning they were, and I love that we had little to nothing to do with it! Lauryn and Zoe were a total pleasure to work with (bonus that they have an adorable shop to browse as well) - and I'm grateful we found them to make our day what it was. Would hugely recommend them to anyone!
Lauryn and Zoe we're great to work with. They were receptive to feedback and helped make an incredibly specific vision come to life at Jonathan Edwards winery. We continue to receive compliments on the flowers weeks after the wedding.
Thank you for making my wife's vision come to life. From the second we got married she made it very clear that the flowers were "very important." She stayed up countless nights, stalking Pinterest to find the perfect images that she would be able to share with her florists to make her day perfect. I will be honest, I thought she was nuts with all of the details she wanted. I was corrected when I got to the venue for the first look and saw your work. The second I walked outside I knew you nailed it! And I have to say...it was amazing! You ladies did a phenomenal job! My wife, her parents, my parents, our guests, and admittedly myself, man who never thought he would notice an outstanding display of flowers at a wedding, have ranted and raved about your work since we got married. Thank you for making my wife's dream a reality!
Stems & Co. did the flowers for my wedding in July. I was nervous in the beginning because they have not been around as long as some other local florists. Lauryn and Zoe far exceeded my expectations! We received so many compliments on our flowers. Even the venue (The Inn at Longshore) reached out to request contact information. After seeing what Stems & Co. pulled off I am so grateful I went with my gut and trusted these two women! I provided the ladies with images from Pinterest to portray "my image." Lauryn was amazing and worked with me along the way (as I changed my mind 10 times) and her recommendations were fantastic. I would highly recommend Stems & Co. They will "blow your socks off"; as my dad said when he saw their work!
Stems & Co did all of the flowers for our wedding on Rocky Point in Bell Island, CT. Zoe and I worked together to develop the look and she was great about helping me to express my vision. The end result exceeded expectations - the flowers were absolutely lovely and added so much to the overall event. I also felt that the pricing was reasonable and Zoe and team did a wonderful job making it all happen on time and on budget. I highly recommend Stems & Co.
From start to finish, I so enjoyed working with Stems + Co, and they created my dream florals - within my budget - for my wedding! Not only were Lauryn and Zoe responsive, professional, and friendly, but they always brought in their personal touch and creativity whenever possible. I started with a very rough idea of what I wanted, and they ran with it - I trusted them every step of the way because they demonstrated that they understood what I wanted - even more so than I did! I can't recommend Stems + Co highly enough - they did a truly fantastic job, and were a pleasure to work with.
Stems + Co were amazing for our August 13, 2016 wedding. I explained to Lauryn what I wanted and the result was flawless! The bouquets, arrangements, and archway surpassed any and all expectations I had. They were a pleasure to work with, really going above and beyond. It was the hottest day of the year and the crew was there with a smile! And all of the flowers held up not only for the event, but for days after. I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat. Best. Flowers. Around. It brought our whole theme together and we were so appreciative. Thank you for the wonderful experience! Planning a wedding can be stressful and to work with people you trust, who deliver flawless results is a must.
Lauryn & Zoe were an absolute dream to work with for our 9/30/2017 wedding. I can't wait to see what amazing things they continue to do with their business - book them while you can!!! I spent time working with Lauryn on our vision and overall vibe for our wedding day - while it was at a yacht club we didn't want anything too stuffy or traditional. When she sent us our proposal, I gasped out loud - she took my somewhat all over the place Pinterest board & turned it into a stunning, cohesive vision that she and her team executed flawlessly. She was honest and upfront about which aspects of her vision would pack great bang for our buck, always keeping in mind budget. She even worked with my fiance and I on how to best accentuate the arbor my fiance handmade, complimenting and highlighting his beautiful handiwork with her blooms. One of my favorite flowers was towards the end of the season and Lauryn was able to somehow track down some of the last blooms in a complimentary shade - she went above and beyond to make it happen for us. We were so lucky to work with Stems & Co and truly cannot recommend them enough!!!!!!!
Lauryn and Zoe knocked it out of the park for my October 2017 wedding! From the elegant wreaths, arrangements and aisle markers at church, to our amazing bouquets, to spending the time to perfect every single table at our reeption, Stems + Co blew me away, along with my husband, family and friends in attendance. These ladies were amazing to work with from day one, providing me with examples and working through various logistics that needed to be worked out at our church and reception venue. The time, care, and attention that went into every single arrangement was so evident and appreciated! I cannot thank Lauryn and Zoe enough for providing so many beautiful aspects of what was a perfect fall wedding for my husband and I!!
Stems & Co. did all the floral arrangements for my 200 person wedding on Elihu Island in Stonington, CT. Because the wedding was on an Island, albeit in CT, we wanted the flowers to relate back to the islands so there was a focus on palm leaves and lots of rich island greenery.
Zoe and Lauryn did an AMAZING job!!!! The flowers were the star of the show and they completely understood my vision and executed it better than I could have ever imagined. Everything from the beautiful alter to my husbands awesome pineapple boutonnière was perfect. The attention to detail and perfectionist attitudes was exactly on par with what I was looking for and I am SO grateful that they made my dream wedding come true.
I would highly recommend Stems+Co. I don't typically write reviews but they were by far my favorite vendors and really wonderful to work with!!
Lauryn from Stems & Co. did the florals for my October 2016 wedding. She was such a pleasure to work with!! She completely got the minimalistic, industrial chic vibe I envisioned. She has amazing taste and great ideas which made the whole process very fun and easy for us. I am still getting compliments on the custom wall installation she did for our ceremony!
