Sweet Talk was arguably the best part of our wedding. Lorinda and her team are the best of the best. Her flowers are art and brought our traditional wedding to the next level. On top of her incredible design abilities, Lorinda was with me every step of the way. She responded to every email, text, and instagram message answering my questions and helping me design our dream florals over the year leading up to our wedding. She worked within my budget (and even ended up under budget!!) and delivered the best flowers I have ever seen. She puts her heart into every event and I can't think of a better vendor to have on your team for your wedding day.
We used Sweet Talk Florals in our wedding this past weekend. We were absolutely blown away by the flowers they provided. We gave Lorinda a description and some inspiration pictures and she completely turned our ideas into a beautiful reality. We had a wildflower theme with many beautiful colors and a variety of flowers. Highly recommend!
Lorinda and the Sweet Talk team are incredible. We were thrilled to book them for our June 2024 wedding. Their work is STUNNING. Lorinda is talented, professional, and kind. She happily fielded my many emails throughout the planning process, updated our vision to fit our budget, and made our day all the more beautiful. Working with them was seamless and such a pleasure. 10/10 recommend booking Sweet Talk!
Lorinda and the whole Sweet Talk Floral team were absolutely amazing throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment I jumped on a call with Lorinda, she heard my vision and assured me that she would be able to bring it to life – Which is exactly what she did on our wedding day. Her creativity and knowledge of the industry is unmatched, and her work speaks for itself (like have you seen her social media pages?! The color?? Come on!!). Her ability to work with color really drew me in, but our initial call solidified my decision in her display of professionalism, sweet confidence, and kindness. I knew I did not have to worry for a second when it came to the florals on our special day, as Lorinda had everything handled from start to finish. Lorinda was always responsive and included us in the process from start to finish, which really connected me to the end result (even though I can take absolutely NO credit for it, LOL!). I received SO many compliments from our guests on how gorgeous and different our florals were, and even from staff and other vendors who LOVED how the colors were so unique to what they usually see at our venue. She took the blank canvas that Belle Mer is and completely transformed it into a colorful, whimsical paradise for our day. To this day, I can’t picture a more perfect embodiment of what I wanted for our day. I am so grateful to have had Lorinda as a vendor, and will forever cherish the gorgeous blooms (which my mom preserved herself as a gift to me following our special day) as a reminder of the best day of our lives – all thanks to vendors like Sweet Talk Floral. Couldn’t recommend her and her team enough!
We had an absolutely amazing experience working with Sweet Talk Floral for our late September wedding on Cape Cod. Lorinda and her team are incredible! Lorinda really helped us figure out our vision for the day — she brought tons of experience and suggestions to the table, but was also very receptive to our ideas during the planning process, and was open to tweaks and changes along the way as we figured out exactly what we wanted. Her team was impressively accommodating day-of, including when we needed to change from an outdoor to an indoor space last-minute; they adapted everything for a totally new environment expertly. And the beauty of the arrangements blew us away — we couldn’t stop smiling every time we looked at our florals. Highly, highly recommend!
My 08/19/23 wedding was stunning & it's all thanks to Lorinda & her team. The floral designs from Sweet Talk Floral were STUNNING! Beyond my wildest dreams beautiful. To the point where almost every attendee commented on how gorgeous they were. They really captured the spirit of what we wanted the theming to be for the wedding. If you like loose, florals that feel modern, playful, but still incredibly classy, Sweet Talk Floral is a no brainer. Lorinda was very easy to work with - we went over my vision early on in the planning process & from the first mood board she sent, I knew I was in good hands. She nailed it. And as my planning changed a bit over the course of the year & I made adjustments to my vision, Lorinda adapted to those changes. I didn't have any specific flower requirements & let Lorinda run with it and I'm glad I did. She is a true expert & insanely talented. I mean just look at the photos from the wedding attached! Mastermind!!!!!!!!!
We are so happy we worked with Sweet Talk Floral for our wedding florals. Working with Lorinda was a dream - she is a super clear communicator and it was so easy to talk through our vision and what we wanted for our wedding day. We didn't have any specific flowers we wanted for our colorful spring palette, and it was so nice to trust Lorinda to do her magic and we were absolutely blown away by how beautiful and unique the flowers were. Cannot recommend Lorinda and Sweet Talk enough if you're looking for artsy blooms that you will never forget!!
Lorinda and Sweet Talk Floral are a dream. When I first started planning my wedding, I was worried about being able to stay within budget for florals and I almost opted to do arrangements myself. That plan fell through rather quickly and THANK GOODNESS it did because not only can I not imagine the added stress of having to do it myself but I would have never been able to do anything remotely as beautiful as what Sweet Talk provided. Hiring professionals certainly costs more than DIY but I cannot stress how worthwhile it was. The florals were beautiful - truly unique. It added more to the day than I could have imagined. Lorinda is both an artist and a professional. She was responsive, flexible, and so creative.
Lorinda and her team at Sweet Talk Floral are TRUE VISIONARIES! As a creative myself it can be a challenge to allow others to take the reins on creating your vision. After our first call going over our mood board and vision, I knew Lorinda had a keen eye on attention to detail which made me feel so comforted to know I needed not to stress over our florals at all. She was such a pleasure to work with and always so accommodating to all my wild ideas. We wanted a whimsical wildflower theme and it was truly beyond our expectations. The work of the Sweet Talk Florals team is unmatched if you are looking for any type of wedding florals. I can't recommend her and her team enough!
I fell in love with Sweet Talk Floral's designs the moment I saw them, and knew they would be perfect for my romantic, colorful wedding. While flowers are quite an investment for a wedding, Lorinda helped me work through some different options to figure out where I wanted to spend my budget. The bouquets, greenery and centerpieces all turned out beautiful, and photographed very well.
We had a few small hiccups along the way, but Lorinda was always very communicative and did what she could to rectify each situation that arose.
I cannot say enough good things about Sweet Talk Floral. We used them for our wedding and had such an excellent experience! Even during a pandemic, when her supplies were more limited, Lorinda managed to deliver BEAUTIFUL flowers and I was so in love. Her use of blues (my favorite color) was perfect and I am still getting compliments on all the arrangements months later. Hire them! You will *not* be disappointed!
The compliments we receive most often about our June wedding are about the flowers. And then I scream ‘I KNOW OUR FLORIST WAS AMAZING!’.
Sweet Talk Floral is not only an incredibly talented studio that creates vibrant, considered, show-stopping arrangements, but Lorinda is a true partner and support. From the beginning we were completely taken with how easy it was to speak with her and how she immediately understood our references and goals.
She was able to offer suggestions, recommendations, and guide us through a process that we were unfamiliar with. Especially in a very uncertain time, navigating the stressors and unknowns of a global pandemic, she was infinitely patient, understanding and optimistic. We didn’t feel like just another client, we felt like friends and truly cared for.
Then, she delivered. Over-delivered, in fact. With awe-inspiring pieces that we couldn’t have been more thrilled with. We always felt we were in good hands, and I couldn’t have been happier walking down the aisle with an extraordinary bouquet to see the gorgeous array of flowers covering our chuppah. In addition, Sweet Talk created a mix of center pieces, table decor and vines that stretched up the poles of our reception tent. Their taste continued to prove to be impeccable. We can’t recommend Lorinda and her team enough, we’re so lucky we were able to work with them.
Sweet Talk Floral curated a beautiful floral arrangement for our wedding. Starting with the bouquets and boutonnieres, to the centerpieces and our ceremony arbor - Sweet Talk nailed our color scheme and provided BEAUTIFUL flowers for the day. Lordina was thoughtful and accommodating in her communication and both she and her team ensured that the coordination of delivery and collaboration with vendors went smoothly. We would HIGHLY recommend Sweet Talk Florals as your florist.
Lorinda and her team at Sweet Talk Floral are true artists and can make any vision come to life! She was such a pleasure to work with throughout the wedding decor process and she was always accommodating and open-minded to all my ideas. Lorinda also made my ideas feel real and possible, and she provided professional guidance, which to a bride who pays extra attention to details was super helpful. We wanted a Fall harvest/moody October vibe as the decor and being that the venue was a historical estate, Lorinda captured the mood of the day perfectly in all the florals. If you're looking for a floral designer who's experienced, talented, and great to work with, then look no further! I can't recommend her enough!
Sweet Talk Floral designed and delivered an experience for our wedding that I will never forget. Lorinda is a truly gifted artist, and the way she was able to translate my ideas and preferences into stunning floral artistry was beyond anything I could have imagined! Our small wedding venue felt like it was transformed into a magical, intimate dreamland through the incredibly unique arrangements and installations that were created just for us. Our guests were absolutely wow-ed by the beauty and almost a month later, are still commenting on our flowers! And all of this was achieved within my budget. Lorinda was fantastic to work with through every step, and I really can't recommend her business highly enough.
We knew when we saw Sweet Talk Floral featured on our venue’s social media page that we needed to have them as our wedding florist! We had a modest budget and only ordered a single bridal bouquet and it was stunning. Lorinda listened to what we wanted (autumn tones in medicinal plant varieties) and went above and beyond. She even made sure it was delivered to the venue the day before so we got a sneak peak! I cannot wait to preserve my bouquet and create a family heirloom that will decorate our home.
Lorinda and her team are floral GODDESSES. With a few photos of my bridesmaids dresses, groomsmen bowties and a simple request to add my grams favorite flower ... Lorinda pulled together the most elegant floral display for my entire venue. 9 bouquets, 3 corsages, 10 boutonnieres, an arbor, staircase, 18 tables, 30 lanterns, 10 cocktail tables ... all covered in greenery and blooms. It was PERFECTLY stunning. Our backyard wedding looked like an ethereal dream. Thank you!
Love,
R+J
I found Lorinda through Instagram while looking at tagged pictures of our venue and knew right away I had to have her for our wedding. I truly cannot say enough good things about her and her team. She is the most incredible and talented florist I have seen. She is so kind, personable, and easy to work with. My view for the wedding had completely changed when we first started planning up until the end and she just went with the flow and was able to make any changes needed. I ended up asking her to recreate a previous shoot she did and she put a little twist on it to fit all of the different ideas we had. When I was struggling to decide what to do for centerpieces she had us come in and play around with different flowers and vases so we could see it in person which was a HUGE help. I always knew I wanted to have hanging greenery from the beams at our venue and Lorinda was able to make the cost of each installation fit our budget. The venue had even asked Lorinda to come 3 hours earlier than the rest of the vendors to set up and she did so with no problem at all. On the day of the wedding we got to see everything while she was setting up and my sister started crying at how beautiful it was. During our first look Lorinda brought out my bouquet and myself and our photographer were speechless. Our jaws dropped, it was everything I dreamed of and more. We are still hearing from our guests how amazing the flowers were and we owe it all to Lorinda! I promise if you go choose Sweet Talk Florida you will not regret it. I’m looking forward to the next big event we plan just to work with her again!!
Lorinda is just overall incredible. She is so kind and easy to work with - as well as talented beyond my wildest dreams. Lorinda brought my dreams to reality and I can not recommend her highly enough!
Lorinda is the most talented florist I have ever worked with in my life. From our first conversation She totally understood my vision and my colors. I had seen a precious wedding they had done and her vibrancy and creativity is what really caught my eye. When we went to visit Lorinda in RI my mother had definitely a lot of her own “ideas” and I had my own “ideas” well she took them both and beyond exceeded our expectations! Every time something happened during the wedding planning process she was always easy to get ahold of and quick to make changes and adjustments! Flowers were 95% of our decor and it was all we needed. You walked into our wedding and the room smelled of fresh flowers. It was incredible. Our bouquets were sensational and I think people are going to remember our wedding because of those flowers for a very very long time! Thank you Sweet Talk!
Lorinda was a rockstar. Very personable and easy to craft a game plan for our big day. LOVED working with her and she executed flawlessly on our big day. Highly recommend newly engaged couples work with her. MVP performance!
Without a doubt, Lorinda is an incredible florist!!!! She made my vision come to life bigger and better than I ever could've imagined! Everyone couldn't stop talking about how beautiful my wedding arch was which was then able to move inside. She even created a doggie flower crown! She was so easy to work with and a really awesome person. I had my wedding last October during the pandemic and she was extremely flexible and always dependable. I would hire her over and over again, best decision!!!
Lorinda was WONDERFUL to work with!!! She completely understood my vision right from the beginning. On the day of our wedding, the flowers were absolutely STUNNING!! My bouquet, the table arrangements, our chuppah - everything was PERFECT! Coral charm peonies were at the very top of my wish list and even though they were out of season…Lorinda made it happen!!!
My husband and I decided on a small backyard wedding in August 2020. Our original wedding plans were cancelled like so many other couples this past year, but Lorinda was so flexible and understanding as we navigated all of the stress and craziness. Sweet Talk Floral’s work was insanely gorgeous and they were a total pleasure to work with. I will 100% be reaching out to them again for any future events!
Lorinda - thank you for helping to make our day so perfect and special! xoxo
Beyond gorgeous floral arrangements! Rinny took our inspiration pics and went above and beyond. I fully trusted her style, eye and expertise, and had no worries that she would enhance our venue with the most beautiful florals ever!
As a bride who was impacted by COVID in March 2020, I had to abruptly postpone my wedding a month beforehand. I knew I wanted to still elope and decided to treat myself to an amazing bouquet. While researching flower vendors in the New England area, I happened to find Sweet Talk on IG and knew Lorinda's gorgeous creations were my top choice. I really appreciated how fast she was in responding and I knew I could completely trust her to create an amazing, unique bouquet, even though we only exchanged a few emails back and forth on my "vision".
I wanted a really colorful bouquet filled with a variety of bright colors, textures, and something natural and wild looking and Lorinda delivered a bouquet far more gorgeous and stunning than I ever imagined. I appreciated how she drove from RI to Boston to deliver my bouquet, even in the snow and how much care was put in the flowers, from the way they were packaged and how fresh they were the morning of! Even my husband's boutonniere and our pup's floral wreath was so cute and well designed. Most of all, I loved all the flowers she chose- there were so many unique shapes and flowers I had never seen before and the colors were just so vivid. Even the peonies she chose in the bouquet- they're such a common flower used in weddings, but the shade of Peony she selected was so gorgeous and one I'd never seen before! I was so happy and on cloud nine the day of my elopement - the bouquet she made for me just totally made my pictures stand out; our elopement photographer couldn't stop taking photos of them. If you're looking for flowers that will stand out and make your pictures pop, hands down hire Lorinda. Her aesthetic is just stunning and I would hire her again in an instant for any event I need flowers for!
Lorinda is an incredible and exceptionally thoughtful florist! Like many other couples, my fiancé and I had to pivot from our original wedding plans in California (where I am from) and decided at the last minute to elope in Rhode Island where we met instead. With two weeks before the date, I contacted Lorinda and described the vibe of our elopement, sharing a few colors and a single photo for inspiration. She showed up on our big day with the bouquet of my dreams and managed to sneak in California jasmine flowers - a nod to where I am from and where we were supposed to get married! Thank you again, Lorinda!
I cannot recommend Lorinda highly enough! I am not exaggerating when I say that she is truly amazing. From my very first conversation with her, she was excellent and upbeat. She really is so easy to talk to. It was so much fun working with her to imagine what our flowers could look like, and she was so incredible about bringing that vision to life (and doing it in a way that was within our budget). With our follow-up calls, Lorinda was always a complete joy and made me feel so confident in choosing her.
My husband and I got married in March 2020 in Boston, just as COVID was starting to set in. Needless to say, the week leading up to our wedding involved a lot of last minute changes as we tried our best to adjust to the latest information. Along the way, Lorinda was incredible and flexible. We always felt like she was taking fantastic care of us and -- even more so -- felt her supportive presence. On the day of the wedding, she took care of dropping off all our personals to our hotel and then even setting up at our venue. We never had to worry about a single thing! Lorinda made sure that everything ran so incredibly smoothly and thought of every detail.
And then there were the flowers themselves. Lorinda's arrangements were BEAUTIFUL. I absolutely loved the bouquets, the boutonnieres were wonderful, and her decor for the venue was stunning. My jaw literally dropped when we first saw the venue and the magic that Lorinda had worked there. The pictures that included the florals were some of my favorite from the day. It was all so much better than I could have imagined -- elegant and yet a little whimsical! We got SO many compliments on the florals.
In short, choose Sweet Talk Floral. You won't regret it. Lorinda is a rare combination of good listener, talent, and professionalism that makes her special, and I am so thankful she was part of our special day.
Working with Lorinda was nothing short of amazing. From our first conversation I knew that I would be going with Sweet Talk Floral for my wedding flowers! She was easy to talk to and truly understood the look and feel that I wanted for my wedding day. It was not a surprise that she was also great to work with through COVID, especially when we had to move the date and location three weeks before. All of my flowers were stunning and exactly what I envisioned. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone who is looking for wedding florals. Thank you so much Lorinda for making my dream become a reality during such a crazy time!
Sweet talk floral went above and beyond from the very beginning of our wedding planning process! From the concept designs to the final gorgeous arrangements, ceremony arbor, and bouquets- Rinny made everything so effortless. Her expertise of pairing together different textures of flowers creates such a beautiful and complex arrangement that we received countless compliments on! She was extremely flexible with changing number of tables and changing from long tables to rounds in the last few weeks- we appreciate it so much! Thank you for making our day extra special and gorgeous with your blooms!
We had an amazing experience working with Lorinda at Sweet Talk Floral. Like so many others, our wedding was cancelled due to COVID. We decided to do a small elopement ceremony, and Lorinda kindly worked with us to create the most BEAUTIFUL arrangements I have ever seen. She stayed well within our price point, and delivered everything herself on the day. We couldn't have been happier, and look forward to working with her again soon.
Four weeks out from our wedding in June 2020, which we were replanning in a new state due to cancelations caused by the coronavirus pandemic, we had no florist. Via a recommendation from our original florist, in stepped Lorinda from Sweet Talk Floral who didn't bat an eyelash at pulling together bouquets and arbor arrangements at the last minute. And she made my flower crown dreams come true! Her work was absolutely beautiful, the bouquets were gorgeous and just the right size, and the arrangements for the arbor were exquisite. All of the flowers tied the whole space together and set the tone for the day. They were colorful, fun, and unique - nothing like anything I'd seen before, which is exactly what I had in mind :) I can't thank Sweet Talk Floral enough for being so easy to work with, friendly, timely, and creative. Highly recommend to anyone out there with floral needs!
You will honestly thank your lucky stars if you have the opportunity to work with Lorinda and the Sweet Talk team for your wedding. Lorinda is thoughtful, kind, inquisitive-- she knew the questions to ask to really understand what we were envisioning for our wedding. We didn't quite know what we wanted, which I think can be a bit more difficult, but Lorinda worked with us to create a romantic, whimsical feel including a floral wall, and arrangements for our small restaurant wedding. Lorinda's eye for unique, non-traditional florals, color palettes and textures is astounding -- not to mention, she is easy going, and a breeze to work with.
The staff at the restaurant were so impressed by the floral transformation, that they kept the installation up as long as they could post-wedding. Lorinda's florals set the tone for our intimate wedding, and we are so grateful that we found her and had the opportunity to work with her!
We worked with Lorinda from Sweet Talk for our summer wedding in Vermont and I couldn’t have dreamt up better florals for our big day! Upon first seeing her work, I was instantly obsessed with her whimsical, textural, and slightly untraditional arrangements as well as her eye for color. When we chatted to brainstorm ideas, it was immediately clear that Lorinda knows her stuff. While normally I'm a control freak, I completely trusted her to pull out all the stops for our big day. I sent her some inspiration photos detailing the vibe/colors I was interested in, let her know where we needed florals, and let her do the rest! Working with her was completely stress-free and we are still OBSESSED with the results. She killed it. While I knew from the beginning that florals were important for our big day, my now husband listed them low on the wedding priority list. After the fact, he agrees that her florals truly made our wedding beautiful and one of a kind, and we are so happy to have worked had the magic of Sweet Talk on our wedding day. Thank you Lorinda!!
The flower arrangements at my wedding were beyond what I was hoping for. I found Sweet Talk Floral on Instagram and wondered if the photos online would match the finished product. She delivered! What's funny is that I never met Lorinda in person! I spoke with her on the phone and via e-mail. The communication process was so easy. I told Lorinda I wanted wildflowers, gave her my budget and she worked with me. While I was getting ready for my wedding, she was setting up arrangements at the church and at the reception venue. My husband and I didn't even know some of the names of the flowers she had in our arrangements. We dried many of the flowers and have now planted a variety of our wedding flowers in our yard for an extra special piece of landscaping. You'd be making a mistake by not hiring Lorinda and the Sweet Talk Floral gang!
I feel like the luckiest bride ever for finding Sweet Talk Floral! Book Lorinda RIGHT NOW!Lorinda is an absolute dream to work with with. She took any requests or ideas that I had and figured out a way to do it! She is so calm and relaxed - just want every bride needs!Never for a second did I feel worried about my flowers. When Lorinda arrived to drop off the bouquets on the day of my wedding my bridesmaids and I were in AWE! Everything was absolutely stunning. She did a beautiful installation on the bar, set up the ceremony and decked out the reception. She stayed late into the evening to do a room flip. My guests are still talking to me about how gorgeous everything was. Lorinda was so incredibly generous with her time, so fantastic to work with and went above and beyond anything I imagined!!
I found Lorinda through Instagram and instantly knew she would be the right person to do our wedding flowers. I’m very indecisive and always like a million different ideas that shouldn’t make sense together, but she was able to see and piece it all together and create exactly what I wanted. She just gets it. Wedding planning was stressful, and knowing I could trust and not have to worry about her seriously took a huge load off my shoulders. She is also so sweet, professional and just awesome and I’ll forever be grateful to her! <3
Lorinda was amazing to work with. She worked within my budget, she assembled beautiful florals, and made a process that could have been very stressful, exceptionally easy. I can't tell you how many compliments the arrangements received from the uniqueness of the flowers to the simple yet classy execution. My biggest regret is I didn't get to meet Lorinda the day of my wedding to thank her for everything. I would recommend her a thousand times over.
Lorinda and her team were incredible! She completely read my mind and intuited the vision I had perfectly. She is professional, creative, attentive and above all, a true artist. A month later, and our guests are still raving at how beautiful the flowers were and how they completely transformed the warehouse venue into a magical, intimate, gorgeous environment. I couldn't recommend her more!
Lorinda's floral work is breathtaking - she's truly an artist, as you can see in her pictures! I received so many compliments on our gorgeous arrangements and how well they worked in our venue. Lorinda was also a true pleasure to work with - she is so kind and cheery. She was always quick to respond, and incredibly patient when I was trying to describe my vision, and was always happy to send me a new mood board and mock ups when I was going back and forth on ideas. Lorinda was such a wonderful person to have part of our big day, and I still am in awe at how beautifully she brought my vision to life!
Lorinda of Sweet Talk Floral was exactly what we needed for our wedding florist. She listened to our ideas and helped us put them together for amazing bouquets and centerpieces that were complimented all evening. Lorinda was professional, on time, and flexible even when the venue was not as flexible about when she could come in to set up the arrangements. I would highly recommend Sweet Talk Floral for any event.

Fun Perfection!
I don’t even know where to begin with how wonderful it was working with Lorinda. At the beginning of the wedding process we didn’t feel very strongly about florals and since the bar where we were getting married had a certain amount of personality in the first place, we wanted to try doing minimal florals ourselves. It didn’t take long for us to realize that was a bad idea. On top of that we decide to do our ceremony at the venue (instead of City Hall) so with very little notice, we asked Lorinda to totally transform the space that would be our ceremony location. Lorinda is an amazing collaborator, she is wonderful to work with, she took what we asked for and interpreted it in such a breathtaking way that we couldn’t have even dreamed of. The flowers were so beautiful and they were truly a topic of conversation at the wedding. The ceremony backdrop she created was so amazing that I had to try not to cry when I saw it for the first time. She played such an important role in making our day feel special and we can’t recommend her highly enough.
When it came time to search for vendors for our September wedding it seemed like such a daunting task. Enter Lorinda at Sweet Talk Floral! From the minute we chatted on the phone she put our worries at ease. Since flowers are definitely not my area of expertise, I relied on Lorinda’s guidance for flower choices, vases, etc. I handed over my Pinterest and some color ideas and she ran with it, and I’m so happy she did! We were over the moon when we got to our venue on the day of our wedding. Lorinda and her staff were so kind, and made sure everything was taken care of. My bridal bouquet was stunning, I mean STUNNING. And I can’t wait to see photos! Overall, our experience with Lorinda was top-notch. We recommend her to anyone that wants a truly beautiful day!
I could not have been more happier with the flowers. Sweet Talk manages my budget, my timeline and all the other details discussed with her. A real pro who has captured what we were looking for! I wish her all the best in the future and would recommend her to anyone who does not need the drama - just the flowers!
Lorinda knocked it out of the park, plain and simple. I gave her a view ideas about what I wanted, and she executed my vision better than I could have imagined. The bouquet was stunning, delivered on time, and reasonably priced. I would highly recommend her work!
I know that a full five-star rating in every category may raise eyebrows, but the sincerity of the situation is one where my wife and I can't express our appreciation enough for Sweet Talk and Rinny's care and energy with which she handled the flowers for our wedding.
While I'll admit, as a perhaps stereotypical groom - though having worked in the floral business before - not initially having the floral design of our wedding at the top of my list of concerns, after Rinny took the time to make a personal visit with us to the venue and started describing her vision based upon our input and early ideas, it became clear the floral design would be a powerful and nuanced part of the "character" of our wedding and the "vibe" with which we wanted to welcome our guests and family. I am now at place where the look, variety, and color combinations of the flowers, garland, and bouquets are a distinct and predominant memory of my wedding.
First and foremost, Rinny was genuinely interested and excited to be part of our event, clearly exhibiting an enjoyment and passion for her craft. While some vendors have a sort of boiler plate kindness, Rinny not only communicated with us in a personable way and listened carefully to our ideas, but she was clearly invested in the possibilities of what we could achieve with the visuals of our venue, offering multiple ideas of distinct vision and "eye." Importantly for me, it was all pressure free, as Rinny was flexible and motivated to get the details, composition, and tone right.
This was crucial considering both the venue and the size of our wedding. Having only 35 guests and a ceremony and reception in a highly intimate speakeasy-style space, with a small outdoor patio, the floral design was front-and-center for our family and guests. The pales, pastels, blues, violets, and whites still burst in my memory. Thank you Rinny; perhaps most importantly, our guests still comment about the flowers and have Sweet Talk at the top of their lists.
A friend of ours recommended Lorinda (Rinny) from Sweet Talk Florals for our wedding. We are over the moon that we found her and were lucky enough to have her artistry grace our wedding day personal florals and reception decor. From the very first meeting to the sample meeting and then final wedding day Rinny was wonderful. As a designer myself, the wedding flowers were super important to me because they set the aesthetic tone of the wedding.
Rinny completely understood my vision for the day, making beautiful mood boards for potential colors and floral inspiration, making recommendations along the way for the size of lanterns I should get etc. She was also great with working within our budget, and truly went above and beyond overall, flexing a few of the colors in the palette last minute to match the colors of the grooms/groomsmen ties, delivering our personal florals to multiple locations on the day, setting up and breaking down table decor etc.
All our guests talked about how beautiful the flowers were and our photographs are even more stunning because of them. I’m even drying my bridal bouquet to keep Rinny’s creation for years to come. We feel soooo lucky to have gotten a chance to work with her. Stop wasting your time looking through other profiles, Rinny from Sweet Talk Florals is the one to hire.
I worked with Lorinda for my bridal shower and will be working with her for my upcoming wedding next month.
WOW did she deliver! Not only did she completely understand my vision (to a T, literally), but she was so communicative, thoughtful and professional the whole time, while also managing to feel like an old friend! It was so easy to work with her, and it was especially nice that I didn't feel any stress about set up, or my vision being fully executed. Lorinda really took the time to understand what I was looking for, worked with me on my budget and was completely accommodating - going above and beyond when necessary.
I cannot wait to see how she SLAYS my wedding flowers!!!
