Tessfresh and Tessilk Flowers

Tess and her team are truly heaven sent! They are amazing and truly went above and beyond to make sure I had the most beautiful flowers for my wedding all while staying within my tight budget. I had some last minute changes and they handled everything smoothly, with patience, and to perfection! I cannot recommend them enough! 10/10!

I had a very hard time communicating with the florist and would often wait several weeks an would need to reach out again. Day of the wedding my florals were late which delayed photos and resulted in the bride missing cocktail hour which was on the priority list to spend time with guests. Clients were assured the florals would be ivory and not white due to the Brides dress color. Day of event the silk florals on the arbor were bright white and not as discussed in the meetings.

WOW! Just, WOW! I ran into Rose from Tessfresh while walking through our venue months before our big day. She was setting up for another wedding, and the flowers were so eye-catching I had to get her business card! A few weeks later, we had booked them for our wedding. I'm not well-versed in flowers, but I knew I wanted a bright, summery, tropical feel. I worked with both Marcy and Tess herself, and both offered wonderful suggestions that totally surpassed anything I had imagined. Tess was honest and kind and offered cost-cutting tips to help me make my vision come to life while staying within a reasonable budget. The staff set up the reception and ceremony space on the day of and returned that night to pick up the rentals, allowing me and my bridal party to relax knowing everything was taken care of. They delivered the bouquets and boutonnières to our hotel across the street so we would have them for pictures prior to the ceremony, and I even received pictures of my bouquet a day in advance so I could see and approve the final product. I've been researching how to preserve wedding flowers because I just can't bear to let them go! Their work is absolutely stunning. You will not be disappointed if you go with Tessfresh.

Tessfresh flowers did an amazing job taking my ideas and inspiration and turning it into something better than I hd even imagined for our summer wedding! I am so amazed with the details that were put into the bouquets and arch florals. Super friendly and easy to work with and I would recommend to anyone!

TessFresh flowers was exceptional to work with! They took my vision and creating something even more beautiful than what I could dream of. Easy to communicate with, timely, professional, but still affordable.

TessFresh was great to work with and we loved everything about the flowers - from my bold tropical bouquet to the beautiful corsages and boutonnieres to the elegant centerpieces. Their team is so accommodating and welcoming. I corresponded with them over email and phone while I was in the planning phase and then finally got to meet them in person when we got into town for the wedding. Rose, Marcie, and Tess took such great care to create the perfect florals for our wedding! I provided vases for all our centerpieces and they did the arrangements with the specific flowers I chose. We didn't have flowers on the arch, but did have drapery with some gold palm tree fronds, which they helped arrange with our day-of coordinator. Everything was gorgeous! I was especially relieved that they were so up front, had reasonable pricing, and didn't pressure me into doing more than I wanted. We wanted a minimal, elegant, and bold tropical look, and they made it happen! Thank you for making our special day so very beautiful! We absolutely loved the flowers and so did our guests!

Our tropical flowers were perfect for our glam tiki wedding. Highly recommend.

Tess and her team gave us exactly what we wanted for our wedding day! From start to finish they were so easy to work with and stay in touch with. We had one date change and several bridal party changes and it was no problem for Tess and her ladies. I appreciated that they were one of the few vendors during covid who still allowed me to meet in person. I’m not a very creative person, so seeing our florals in person was so helpful. Tess even provided our deconstructed arch for the ceremony, and it turned our perfect. All of the bouquets and flowers turned our just how I wanted them to. Everything went smoothly from start to finish thanks to Tess and her team. She even provided us a military discount! Tess’s vision was perfect for the vibe we were going for.

If you want a great, professional and easy business to be in charge of your flower arrangements, this is the place to hire. I used Tess Fresh Flowers for my wedding and I have no regrets.The process was so easy and everything I wanted and pictured followed through. Tess is so sweet and professional and makes sure that your vision is carried out. She makes sure that what the bride wants the bride gets. I had no worries on my wedding day about the flowers because I knew that they would take care of everything. And everything turned out beautiful. Don’t have any reservations about this flower shop, it’s the one to hire.

Tess and her team were amazing! Their flowers and arrangements are gorgeous and the price for everything was affordable! My bouquet was beautiful and everything I wanted! They were even able to get peonies in my bouquet which I didn't think we would be able to do (out of season). I'm so glad my wedding planner recommended them they do so a great job!

Tess and her team were wonderful to work with for our wedding flowers! From our first conversation, when I didn't really know what I needed and what to ask, she guided us through everything, asking questions and making suggestions. She listened to what I had in mind and captured it wonderfully while suggesting additions and tweaks based on seasonality and what would look good together. When we met again before the wedding, she had suggestions on how we could reduce the cost (returning the centerpiece lanterns ourselves after the wedding instead of paying for them to come pick them up). Everything came out beautifully and they were so great to work with! Highly recommend!!

A great wedding vendor to work with! Tess' consultant made very helpful suggestions that we liked. Some flowers were repurposed seamlessly between ceremony and reception. They used very fresh and beautiful flowers. Great price as well.

Tess and her team go above and beyond to ensure that the flowers for your special day are exactly what you want. They have super clear communication and are absolutely so lovely. I cannot express how happy I was with our flowers.

Tessfresh did the florals for my wedding and far surpassed any expectation I had!!!! Tessfresh was a recommended vendor through my venue and worked seamlessly with my coordinator and other vendors. Unlike most brides, I did not have an exact vision for my wedding and just sent inspirational pictures of styles and colors I liked and left the rest up to the experts. I dropped off my grandmothers jewelry the week of my wedding and they affixed it to my bridal bouquet. They also texted me a photo AND video of my finished bridal bouquet the day before my wedding-that text was the most exciting and relieving message to receive amongst all of the pre-wedding chaos, it calmed me and made me so excited to see the rest of the florals on the big day. Day of the wedding they were on time, delivered personal flowers to our hotel and then the ceremony and reception florals to the venue! They provided gorgeous fresh petals for my flower girls. My bouquet was the most gorgeous arrangement of florals I've ever seen! It has now been a week and the arch florals are still at my house in near perfect condition and I am still enjoying my bridal bouquet too ;) I have complete confidence Tessfresh can do whatever your floral vision and dream is! I will definitely come back to Tessfresh for professional florals in the future. Thank you!

Tess and her team did an amazing job with my wedding!! It was at the L'Auberge Del Mar, so I wanted a high quality florist job to match the event space and she did just that! Also, the ceremony spaced had to be flipped to dinner. So many florists made me feel uncomfortable about how hands on they would be for the flip, but Tess made me feel comfortable and on the day of everything looked perfect and I never even saw anyone working on it because they were so on top of it. Her prices were very reasonable for flowers and rentals. If you want beautiful florals at an affordable price, this is the team for you!

Tessfresh was so easy to work with for my destination wedding in San Diego. They were responsive, helpful, and made wedding planning a breeze— even from afar! Highly recommend!

Tess and her team were professional, respectful and kind. The initial recommendation, quote and mock up appointment went well and the team really listened to the requested adjustments to the floral arrangements. Truthfully, during our preview appointment via Zoom I became a little concerned because of a miscommunication over one particular color. But the day of I was BLOWN away! Everything from the bouquets and boutonnieres to the welcome sign, arch decor and table arrangements were just beautiful. Thank you Tess and team for making our wedding flower dreams come true!

I was overall disappointed with the Tessfresh team. Wedding Date: 10/16/21. There was a total lack of communication between team members and what was on the proposal was not fully reflected in mock ups or final day of delivery. Request: neutral blooms with a hint of orange + succulents for ceremony flowers and BRIGHT colorful flowers (orange, pink, purple, red, & yellow) + succulents for a Mexican Wedding Fiesta Reception. Initial appointment on Tuesday 6/8/21 (drove from 2 hours away): they had a mock-up for a reception centerpiece with neutral blooms with a hint of orange; it was absolutely beautiful, but not at all what I had asked for. Still, Tess put me at ease and stated they would correct the mix up without problem by my final mock up appointment. Trusting the other Yelp reviews and the recommendation I received to hire Tessfresh from my wonderful photography team (True Photography) I carried on with Tessfresh and placed a deposit. I was scheduled for my final appointment prior to the wedding for 9/4/21 by Rose. Madel then e-mailed me attempting to schedule the appointment that had already been scheduled... On 9/4/21 I arrive excitedly with my mom and sister (again drove in from out of town) to an ALL ORANGE center piece arrangement. I was SO disappointed... Tess was VERY apologetic and then offered to comp one of the garlands arrangements and assured me we could have a mock-up over ZOOM. The blame was placed on one of the staff members not adding enough details/pictures to the proposal. I then went back to the e-mails once I got home (unfortunately I had no cell signal at the shop) and nowhere on the proposal did it say the color should be orange only; the WORDS said the correct description, but I had sent an inspo pic w/ an orange arrangement in a wooden box asking for something similar to that wooden box and THAT's the picture Tess chose to use as the overall design completely ignoring the whole proposal her staff member had worked on for weeks with me. Tess also then found her notes from 6/8/21... from our initial meeting. About a week later, I received a picture and video for another mock-up, this time with the right colors but the flowers chosen/style just did not match the overall theme/inspo pictures I had originally sent in 06/2021... sent back many notes and didn't hear back until a couple days later stating they would do another mock-up WEEK OF wedding... there were SO MANY back and forth emails after this... mainly because I was at that point inspecting each and every word and picture on that proposal due to the two prior disappointments and huge oversights. I didn't switch vendors because at this point it was weeks before the wedding. DAY-OF: The center pieces and ceremony flowers ended up looking BEAUTIFUL/as requested BUT after the SUPER ROUGH JOURNEY above. ALSO: - They brought a FOUR-tier cake stand (it was confirmed multiple times I had requested a THREE-tier stand and that's what was on the proposal. My cakes had to be modified and it just did not end up as visibly beautiful as it was intended to look. Thankfully my day-of wedding coordinator made it work! - The staff left WITHOUT setting up the "Find Your Seat" and "Welcome" sign garland flowers. They just left containers with fresh flowers behind and left. My day-of coordinator did what she could and it looked OK but really? :(

I had a great experience with Tess and her assistant Rose. She was recommended by my venue and I saw a sample bouquet in her portfolio that I really liked that I wanted her to emulate. I will admit that when I did my consult, I was a little nervous that what she presented was not exactly what I had pictured. Due to the time of year, she had to make some different flower choices, etc. What was delivered on my wedding day was absolutely gorgeous and I was so happy. It was exactly what I wanted and also very unique.

Tessfresh is the best! They brought my vision to life and the flowers couldn't have been more beautiful and perfect!! And at a very affordable price! Book them!

Tess is one the most talented florist, She created a magical wedding for us. Her flowers smelled so good and fresh! They were beautiful, She gave us good suggestions and helped guide us in a good direction to create our vision. She is friendly and fun to work with. She went out of her way to make our day special!

Tess and her team were just amazing! We chose TessFresh because my sister and some other friends had their wedding flowers by them, and they recommended Tess and her team. Our first meeting with Tess was great! Tess was knowledgable, friendly, and so personable. She really made you feel like family, and her prices are reasonable. Throughout our planning process, Tess was so flexible with our budget! We were going back and forth with different ideas and ultimately, she and her team definitely delivered! On the actual wedding day, Tess's team were on time and delivered everything as promised. I was a little apprehensive at first because the week prior to our wedding, we made some more changes, so we couldn't see a full mock-up of how the florals would look, but they turned out beautifully! They definitely grasped the Disney/bright/colorful theme I was going for, and everyone loved the flowers! Thank you TessFresh!!!!

Tess and her team are amazing, you can see why she has won so many awards as her work speaks for itself. Check out her work online. I remember meeting her at her office and I was sooo excited to find out what my wedding flowers would look like. I had already a theme in mind and had several variations in my head. When my fiancé and I met with Tess to go over what I envisioned she explained a lot of the type of flowers depending on the season maybe or may not be available. Apparently, the flowers I wanted were not going to be in season but with her magic and resources, was able to still create the most beautiful bridal bouquet and centerpieces I wanted. You see the flowers and the bouquet sets the motif of the wedding and she nailed it on the wedding day. And my bouquet was going to be in every photo so you can image how important it was to me. She even provided me smart options on how to stay in budget so I can do more with my flowers during the ceremony and wedding reception. She was not all about upselling me but making sure my flowers were beautiful and inline with my goals as things quickly add up when planning a wedding. My guest loved the centerpieces so much as they all wanted to take them home. There is just the different special natural feeling when you have fresh flowers all throughout your wedding. If anyone is looking for a wedding florist, hands down Tess is your go to. She has an amazing artistic eye to create masterpieces the day of your wedding. I am so blessed to have her do my wedding flowers. I would recommend her in a heartbeat for anyone who needs a florist!

Absolutely amazing!! Tess and her team went above and beyond for me. She was absolutely wonderful to work with and I would recommend her to anyone. I gave her a general idea of what I needed for my centerpieces and she executed it so much better than I could have imagined. Great communication and just absolutely wonderful. Will have to update my review with a picture once I have them back! 10/10!

HIRE HER! I'm still in owe of our wedding flowers, and we got so many compliments on our flowers. Going into wedding planning, we knew little about wedding flowers, however Tess was patient and helped us throughout the process. You can tell she genuinely cares about you and wants your wedding to be special. She went above and beyond, and her work surpassed our vision. She is very sweet, easy to work with, respects your budget, gives great advice on your flower arrangements, and is dependable. When wedding day came along, everything ran smoothly and all flowers were dropped off when they were promised. We highly recommend using them for your wedding or any special occasion! We're so happy we went with them as our florist!

They did an amazing job with bringing our wedding to life. The flowers looked great and the guests loved them too.

Tess and her team exceeded our expectations. They were very easy to work with from the first meeting, design to setup and delivery. Our wedding was even better than what my wife had envisioned and we continue to receive compliments on the flowers when people see our photos. I plan to use Tessfresh Flowers again for future events. I'm confident you will be happy with them as well.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Marci and her team. From communication to execution, everything was FLAWLESS. They made everything easy, even with an unexpected pandemic and wedding date change. The flowers were beautiful, the communication and timeliness were top notch, and I truly appreciate the valuable service they delivered over the last two years. Thanks Marci and team!! Absolutely recommend this florist!

Tess gave us flexibility in the themes we were wanting, and delivered more than we had asked. She knew exactly how the logistics should be setup, and was a genuine pleasure to work with. Her expertise in flower species, eagerness to please, and contagious energy makes her a highly recommended vendor.

I got so many compliments on our centerpieces and bouquets! I was nervous I would have dead or dying flowers or that it would be a total hassle, but TessFresh made it super easy. I shopped around quite a bit when it came to all of my vendors, and I am so happy I went with TessFresh. They were easy to work with, they gave me exactly what I wanted, and they were super flexible with our last minute changes. They provided the arch, draping, and flowers for the ceremony as well as the flowers to line the aisle. They moved all the aisle flowers to the dining tables and moved the arch flowers to the head table, they utilized every flower to make sure I got the most out of my money for the flowers. I didn't even notice them day of during the set up or moving the flowers. I don't remember any of the centerpieces at other weddings, but we got so many compliments on our flowers as ours absolutely stood out. I didn't know a lot about flowers or when things are in bloom, and TessFresh made recommendations based on quality and better pricing after I gave a general description, they were like mind readers in giving me the perfect floral arrangements. All of the flowers also lasted and looked beautiful a week after the wedding. So perfect! Would highly recommend!

We got married on Leap Day 2020, exactly one year ago. Tessfresh was recommended from our venue and we are so happy we went with them. We went and looked at a sample centerpiece a few months before our wedding and Tess had some great recommendations to make the centerpieces even better. We got married at the Japanese Friendship Garden and the pink cherry blossoms happened to be in early bloom. Tess’s recommendation to put some blush into the center pieces and bridge arrangement turned out to match with the pink from the cherry blossoms really well. The bridal bouquet turned out beautifully too. We were planning the wedding from the East Coast but with great communication, they made it really easy to communicate over e-mail. We are huge fans and enthusiastically recommend Tess and her team for your big day.

When my husband and I met Tess, we knew we had to hire her immediately! She was so warm, kind and welcoming, just like family. After listening to our visions of a tropical getaway, she quickly came up with some beautiful and wonderful ideas for our big day. As the world changed in March of 2020, Tess and her team were always there to lend a helping hand in our planning process. They were so flexible and accommodating to the changes needed for our dinner reception to proceed in a safe manner. We are so glad that we listened to our instincts and went with TessFresh Florals for our wedding. She brought our tropical paradise by the sea to life and we are so thankful for her and her team. This is a day we will remember for the rest of our lives. Thank you Tess!

Tess made my wedding beautiful!!! First, I need to say how wonderfully accommodating Tess and her crew are with regard to my ever changing wedding! Due to covid-19, our May wedding was postponed, they easily transitioned to our new August date. Then our wedding venue burned down, the provided centerpieces along with it. Tess, my wedding planner, and I had spent many hours designing our centerpieces around the original venues pieces. Three weeks before my wedding, I found another venue. We had to redesign the centerpieces in a huge rush. I showed her some pictures and voila, she not only created an even better design, but did so within my new budget. My guests were stunned with the beauty of the centerpieces!!! (pictures to follow soon!) My bouquet and my bridesmaids bouquets were absolutely stunning!!! She found the perfect shade of pink! My father passed away about 2 1/2 years ago, she was able to secure his locket to the bouquet for my walk down the aisle. I'm still so impressed by the professionalism, design, and overall quality that I received with Tessfresh flowers. I cannot recommend her enough. If you want your wedding to be as beautiful as you've always dreamed, do yourself a favor and hire Tess!!! You won't regret it!

Tess and her team are the BEST!!! Seriously from our first meeting we trusted her 100%. When we told her our vision was tropical and our colors she ran with it and we couldn't have been more pleased. She seems to know every venue in San Diego and gave us great advice on how to use our budget wisely and accent the natural beauty of our space. Our larger wedding got postponed due to COVID so we had a smaller ceremony with just family. Tess was incredibly flexible with the multiple changes that came along with the new date. Her team was very responsive and kept detailed notes so nothing fell through the cracks. The flowers for the arches were stunning and the bouquet was absolutely breathtaking. We can't wait to use Tess for our reception post COVID and highly recommend her and her team!

Tess and her team are simply amazing! I described what my vision was and she was able to bring it to life. They are very flexible and easy to work with! I had some last minute additions/ changes and she was able to accommodate with no issues. I highly recommend her and her team for any event, they truly made our wedding day special!

Tessfresh is amazing! My floral arrangements and bouquets for my wedding were stunning! Tess was able to give me everything I was envisioned for my wedding and still keep it within my budget, which was so important to me. She was professional and went the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect and set up beautifully for the reception. Professional, talented, experienced and well priced. If you’re looking for the best hire Tessfresh, you won’t be disappointed!

Tessfresh Flowers is amazing! They created flower arrangements that exceeded our expectations! I gave them my vision and some photos and they created exactly what I wanted. When we visited their shop for our initial meeting, they were extremely welcoming (and even had us join in on a company potluck). In addition to the flowers we also rented a cake stand, centerpieces, and an arch. We are from the east coast so we weren’t able to do an in-person meeting to view the mock-ups but that was no problem because they sent videos and photos. I can’t say enough good things about Tessfresh Flowers.

My wedding coordinator recommend Tess to me. We were on the fence about having real flowers at our wedding, but ultimately decided to go for it after realizing how much real flowers meant to my mom and grandma, re-budgeting, and seeing the work the Tess had done in the past. I'm so glad we decided to go with Tess! During our first meeting, she was easy to talk to and had so many ideas to bring my wedding. She was budget conscious and discussed re-purposing pieces on the day of. Between our first meet up and the wedding, she communicated well. On the day of (late october at humphrey's half moon inn), Tess and her team showed up early, delivered everything on time, and set-up the areas beautifully! I had ordered flowers for the ceremony arch, centerpieces, groomsmen boutonnieres, bridemaids bouquets, my bouquet, and a open style lei for my husband. Everything was as discussed! The flowers were beautiful, fresh, smelled great, and lasted the whole day. She made the process seamless from beginning to end. I would work with Tess again in a heartbeat and have already recommended her to friends! (originally posted as a google review)

Such a great experience working with Tessfresh Flowers! They were patient and very flexible, and brought our thoughts for decorations to life! Thank you team for the exceptional work and follow through. Also, not to mention the great price they offer their excellent services. I completely recommend them!

Tess and her team did a phenomenal job on my wedding in La Jolla. We got married at Cuvier park and then had the reception at the La Jolla Woman's Club, and Tess' team was able to transfer our flowers between venues without me even noticing! I am in love with sunflowers and Tess and I instantly connected. She was able to completely capture my vision and make it a reality. She was so sweet and went above and beyond to make sure our flowers were perfect. Her team never made me feel bad about changing my mind on things, and were able to work with my busy schedule. They are so professional and easy to work with, I would highly recommend them! Tess also helped me stay within budget and had great ideas of how to cut costs without taking away from the look of the day. Thank you for making our wedding so gorgeous!!! XXX Hannah & Jarett La Jolla Woman's Club & Cuvier Park 9-6-2019

My venue recommended Tessfresh flowers as her #1 option, so I went with them instead of doing tons of research. I was definitely not disappointed. The flower arrangements, bouquets, etc. were all STUNNING. The only small request we had was to incorporate white lilies into the arch arrangement, which was not done, unfortunately. I contacted the vendor and she informed me that they did not come in, therefore, they were unable to use them. I just wish I had been notified sooner, rather than me figuring it out after the wedding was already over. Other than that small hiccup, I would highly recommend Tessfresh!

Tess is the best!! Gorgeous florals, great ideas and suggestions, so easy to work with, and mindful of fulfilling the bride's vision with a sensitive eye to containing costs. A completely positive experience, we recommend Tessfresh enthusiastically!

Tessfresh! Wow!! We used them for our wedding in May 2019. What else can I say except that, if you want beautiful flower arrangements, with even better customer service, visit Tess. This team makes every effort to give you everything you could ask for and more, at an incredible price. I felt confident from the first day I met Tess that she would exceed my expectations. And it was all SO easy because they really know what they are doing. Can’t say enough good things about this vendor! Highly HIGHLY recommend!

Our flowers were so on point. I gave them such limited direction and they just totally ran with it. Our centerpieces were gorgeous, our flowers to wear were so beautiful. Tess was extremely accommodating with the rental return policy. I literally have no complaints and I highly recommend them!!

I found Tess after getting dropped by my previous florist, and I'm glad it happened that way, because Tess and team certainly over-delivered. Tess has a good eye for beauty, so trust her to design your look. She took one glance at my inspiration photos and went, "I know what you're going for!" Tess treated my fiance and I as if we were her own children, and her care extended into her flowers. She subtly took note of my favorite flowers and colors as we spoke. Her experience is evident in the specificity of the questions she asked- anyone who books her is in good hands. You will not be overcharged for her services because the quality of her flowers and the detail in her work is well worth it. Her passion is supported by her team's talent. Setup and cleanup was smooth and well-coordinated. Our wedding was absolutely stunning. I highly recommend her for any event.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about the team at Tessfresh! Working with Tess was so fun and stress-free, she knows her stuff! She took my example pictures and fairly vague descriptions of what I was hoping for (I don't know flowers or what is in what season!), and created the PERFECT bouquets + decor for our special day.

TessFresh helped create the wedding we wanted, while staying within our budget! Their service from the start was very helpful, professional, and fun. Tess definitely loves what she does, and goes above and beyond to make sure your flowers look presentable. Love how you can rent items as well for an affordable price.

I love flowers as much as the next bride, but have very little knowledge about what works best together, what lasts throughout the day, and what looks best in pictures (next to a floral pattern dress, nonetheless!). The florists at TessFresh worked with me to incorporate what I like into my bouquet, the boutonnieres, the centerpieces, and everything else. They even worked with me to make centerpieces for the rehearsal dinner that we could re-use the following day as decorations for the aisle. The flowers were delivered on time and just as we had expected, fresh and beautiful!

I hired TessFressh after seeing the stunning floral work they did for my best friends wedding. Everyone that I worked with on the TessFresh team was so wonderful to work with. They were all so patient, excellent communicators, and absolutely wonderful florists! I am so happy with the floral work for our reception at the Ultimate Skybox. Look no further, hire them as your florist!

Working with the ladies at Tessfresh was so much fun and so easy. They were all so sweet and so talented. The final product ended up looking so beautiful! Our arch, the manzanita tree, the bouquets... all perfect.

TessFresh Flowers is just incredible! I just got married and I had a very specific vision and style I wanted, but I also had a budget. I worked with the designer and we did a lot of back and forth via email, phone and face time. They were so patient with me as I tailored my vision and hey were so committed to getting my flowers to look exactly how I wanted. I didn’t have a huge budget and they were experts at finding tasteful and affordable flowers to achieve the look I wanted. Tess is so personable and has such great energy. She wants to get to know her brides and is not at all about the sale. They will give you lots of ideas and advice if you need it but are not pushy. Stella was my designer and she was incredible! We texted often and face timed and somehow she new exactly what I wanted. Everything- the bouquets, centerpieces, boutonnières, the arch swag, flower crowns and bracelets- they were PERFECT. Thank you TessFresh for making my day everything I had envisioned!! Xoxo.

Tess and her team did everything we wanted and more. She was very open to discussing different ideas we had for our wedding florals. She was very easy to talk to and was quick to respond to emails. We gave her some ideas and she created masterpieces!

Tess was amazing! I really had no idea what I wanted as far as flowers for my wedding, so i was very nervous. At my first meeting with Tess she put my mind at ease. Somehow she knew exactly what I wanted. The flowers at my wedding were beautiful and I really felt like Tess and her team took care of me.

TessFresh came as a recommendations from one of our other vendors. We gave them some images and photos of our vision and they exceeded our expectations. Our centerpieces were absolutely stunning and our aisle was gorgeous. Very happy and satisfied with hiring them for our floral arrangements.

We looked around at several different florists and TessFresh was by far the most reasonable for the quality of product that we received. Tess and her team were great to work with. She had a fun and positive vibe that made working with her very easy. She listened to my ideas, but also offered her expertise. Tess helped enhance the natural beauty of the ceremony site. The flowers were nicely done without being too overwhelming. She also created centerpieces that were exactly what we wanted. Thank you for helping to create our perfect wedding!

Unbelievable flowers! Everything turned out exactly like I imagined. Tess was so easy to work with and she listened to my ideas and turned them into reality. She helped us with all of our flowers needs, she also had a lot of great rental options. Set up of everything was so extermely smooth and turned out so beautiful. We cannot recommend TessFresh enough!

OH MY GOODNESS, where do I start?! I guess that I could start off by saying how much I loved working with Tess and her team! From my very first meeting with Tess, I knew she was someone I wanted to work with. Not only is she so sweet to talk to, but she's very passionate about her work. Honestly, I don't have the most expansive knowledge about flowers, so I wasn't 100% sure what kind of flowers I wanted to use. But after showing Tess a few pictures of arrangements I'd saved on Pinterest, she immediately began overflowing with suggestions. Now, here's the thing. I'm a very visual person, so when Tess sketched out really rough ideas for the bouquet and center pieces, I was a little apprehensive because I couldn't see what she saw. But I'm glad that I trusted her because all of my arrangements came out so beautifully! From the altar arrangements, to mine and my bridesmaids bouquets, to all the table centerpieces! I was so in love with my flowers, I took home as many as I could at the end of the evening!! If you're on a tight budget, it could be a little pricey, but 1) Tess will make sure to ask what kind of budget you're on, and help you select flowers to fit your budgetary needs, and 2) working with Tess is worth the extra $$ !!

Amazing!!! That is all I can say! Eleanor and Tessfresh were a dream to work with. I’m not going to lie I was the most nervous about picking flowers for the wedding. I didn’t really know what I wanted, wasn’t sure what flower was what, and didn’t want to spend a lot of money for flowers that would be gone after the day. From the initial contact they were responsive and so easy to work with. I sent over some photos of general ideas that I thought were nice and gave them free reign from there! At my final appointment with mockups they were so sweet as I really didn’t have a clue what most of the stuff was. “I’m not really sure, just make it pretty” was all I told them. They knocked it out of the park! Guests were gasping at how beautiful the arch was when they walked into the ceremony space. To my surprise all the centerpieces were scooped up by guests at the end of the night because they loved them so much. Do not hesitate to reach to them to discuss for your event. They are very accommodating and easy to work with. Thank you Tessfresh!

Amazing! Gave her two very odd flowers to combine and everything came by spectacular! On time and the flowers stayed vibrant over a week after in my kitchen!

Incredible and amazing prices! Best in town!

My friend highly recommended TessFresh for my wedding and I'm so glad I followed her advice! I worked closely with Eleanor and she was wonderful to work with. She was so sweet, professional, and creative. I had no vision floral wise on what I wanted. I just had my wedding colors and theme. However, Eleanor did a great job suggesting flowers that fits within my colors and style. I knew I was in good hands! The team was also really flexible and accommodating when I had to completely alter the original order a few months before the wedding. We ended up adding lanterns as centerpieces and they decorated them all beautifully! And I absolutely LOVED my bouquet and received many compliments on it. Thank you Eleanor, Tess, and team for making my wedding look flawless and beautiful! You guys are the best!

Tess was great to work with and gave us exactly what we wanted for our wedding. Our venue was beautiful so we didn't need much as far as flowers but she didn't try to up-sell (or oversell) us on anything. On our first meeting we brought her a few thoughts/ideas and she really brought that to life better than we could have imagined. She has a wonderful creative touch and brought the perfect detail to our wedding.

I love TessFresh Flowers! They did our wedding flowers, absolutely beautiful and very affordable. I also enjoyed chatting with Eleanor who is friendly, helpful, and a flower pro. Highly recommend using TessFresh. You can 100% trust them to make amaizng a stunning bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, boutienerres, and centerpieces.

Tessfresh provided bouquets and other wearable flowers for our wedding in December 2017. When we first reached out to Tessfresh we didn't know anything about selecting flowers and weren't sure what we wanted, but they guided us through the decisions we had to make. The results were beautiful. All of the flowers still looked fresh at the end of the evening. We would definitely recommend Tessfresh to friends!

I had no idea what I wanted with the exception of succulents. We met with Tess for an initial appointment and I don’t know that she fully understood my beach wedding. When I came for the mock I gave feedback and they implemented it immediately. My centerpieces, bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, etc were perfect for my ceremony and reception - fresh, clean and beach. Also the price was great compared to some other florists I met with.

Tessfresh provided beautiful flowers for our wedding. She met with us and designed the flowers perfectly according to the theme we discussed. The brides bouquet and bridesmaids bouquets were beautiful. The Lanterns looked perfect on the tables. Thank you so much

Tess was a pleasure to work with! Her excitement and love for what she does really shows in her work. We had to make multiple changes to our quote last minute and she accommodated each one without hassle. She also gives honest opinions and does not try to sell you more than what you are looking for. Great and easy vendor to work with!

Tessfresh was by far my favorite vendor to work with for my wedding. Not only is their work incredible, but they are also so easy to work with. I live two hours from San Diego so virtually all our communication was done via email and phone and everything still was so seamless and exactly how I envisioned it. Their creativity brought forth so many awesome details for my wedding and I just can't thank them enough. They deserve your business and you will thank yourself later for choosing them for your floral needs! Thanks Tessfresh!

I can't say enough great things about Tess, Eleanor and the team at TessFresh. They perfectly recreated the vision we had for the florals at our wedding and were so professional and easy to work with. I went back and forth with them asking for countless different arrangement options in order to get the perfect mix of beauty and price and they were so gracious and helpful throughout. Not to mention, they are the absolute sweetest people. We can't thank them enough!!!

Tess!!!!! Oh My, You did it!!! Words cannot described how much I was and still am in love with my bouquet & the 3 Maid of honors bouquets on our wedding day. The ceremony flowers and all the beautiful centerpieces were so amazing. They were beautifully made and put together. You have made our wedding looked beautiful with your detailed, skill and talent . Ladies, if you are planning a wedding, you should go to Tess or atleast go see her. Tess will cater to everything that you want & desire and more. Before going to Tess, I had gone to 3-4 different small floral venue and surprisingly they all cost much more , and were out of my budget. and if you were to ask them to add little things here and there, it comes with extra charges. In addition, smaller floral venue comes with a minimum requirement in order for them to take you on, and service you . Gosh, it was a breath of fresh air when I went to Tess. Tess' floral is one of the largest venue in SD and will and can accommodate your every needs. Her pricing is very fair and flexible. Tess has been in the business for over 20+ years, and her works show it. For mine & 3 maid of honors bouquets, Tess made sure that she met every single details that I asked of her . Tess went of out her way to make me feel comfortable and not stress on our wedding flowers. Thank you so so much once again for making our wedding so beautiful, and making my dream vision came true. I will definitely recommend you to my families & friends .

I had my wedding flowers done here with Tess. I was so nervous I planned my wedding in 2.5 months and I didn't even get a chance to think about flowers until about 1 month to go. I was incredibly stressed and had a small budget for 19 tables! I wanted the rustic look since I had half regular round tables and half long farm tables. Tess listened to me and was so patient. She was able to give me the flowers of my dreams that were within my budget. I think I was a super difficult client because of the time of year, budget and I am not very good at explaining my vision. Tess had me come in multiple times to look at mock ups and talk about flower colors. If I give any advice is just trust her she knows what she's doing. I can say enough how wonderful her and her team was. My flowers were amazing. PS I used Tess because she had done flowers for my sister's wedding three years later and she did a wonderful job then too. I just can't say enough how much I loved my flowers.

Tess exceeded all of my expectations! She recently provided the flowers for my wedding on July 17th, 2015 for both the church and my reception at the Prado. Tess was more than willing to work within my budget and even gave me some tips on how to save money. I was blown away by the amount of flowers and the beauty of the arrangements and the bouquets for the price I paid. Tess also carefully listened to the color scheme and textures I envisioned for the centerpieces and the bouquets. She even did a mock up for me, which we actually made several changes to. I couldn't have been happier with the way Tess took my feedback and gave me the most beautiful flowers for my wedding. Tess was so professional and her experience allowed her to know and recommend what would like best in both my ceremony and reception venues. I would recommend her to anyone!

Tess was recommended to me by Kim at Cordiano Winery. I was so fortunate to meet Tess for my wedding. She did an amazing job and gave me ideas that were even better than I could have imagined. I trusted her experience as she was very familiar with my venue and knew what would work best. Tess and her staff are friendly and make you feel like family the moment you meet. I wanted romantic flowers, like peonies, but they were out of season. Tess and her staff gave me recommendations of other flowers that have the same appearance and were less cost since they were in season. Tess gave me a suggestion on florals for the open venue to make the ceremony local stand apart and I absoluately loved all of her ideas. Both ceremony and reception were elegant, intimate, and magical and the florals really helped give that classy, magical feel. I was so pleased with my florals and highly recommend Tess for your big day!

We got our flowers from TessFresh and they were fantastic. The service can be improved as a couple of times we ran into the situation where they questioned whether we had ordered from them or not after we had paid in full and contract was signed. Other than that, their flowers are beautiful. They gave us additional petals for our wedding that we ended up using them for our ceremony. They made a huge difference and were a huge hit with the guests. The flowers for our table bud vases were equally beautiful.

Being a lover of flowers, I knew that I needed to ensure that they were beautiful for my one year vow renewal. I worked with Thomas of Tessfresh, and I knew him previously when he worked on my brother's wedding. Throughout the entire process he was very helpful in achieving the look that I was going for and still staying within our budget. We were always warmly greeted upon entering the store and left with a smile on our face. On the day of our vow renewal I was blown away by how beautiful my bouquet was as well as those for my bridesmaids. The boutonnieres were exactly how we had envisioned. My husband and I did a first look and I got to quickly glance at the ceremony site. I was so amazed at how perfect it was; it exceeded anything I had envisioned for our wedding. We recently got to see our pictures from that special day and the flowers throughout the entire event were breathtaking. Thomas was there to help out when he could and the flowers for my cake were lovely. I can't say enough great things about Thomas and Tessfresh Flowers. I'm so glad that we worked with them for our special event! Thank you, Thomas!

I am writing this review very disappointedly. I had Tess do my wedding flowers and based on the reviews on her work, I expected to receive great service. Unfortunately, she missed several details with our order. Once I explained these to her the day after our wedding, she said she was very apologetic, but an apology will not correct the errors made to your wedding set up! I am writing this to give heads up to future brides on their communication with Tessfresh flowers. I suggest you make sure the final invoice you receive from Tess includes all details you have gone through with her, and not to trust her acknowledgements to your requests through email. Also, I would pay her only after picking up the flowers and making sure every thing is prepared according to your order. In the case of my wedding, this was not an option as my friends who picked up the flowers were not aware of all details. Below are the errors made on our order: - She charged me extra to place calla lilies in my bouquet, and despite my emphasis on using only white calla lilies, she used pink ones. - My bouquet was supposed to be 75% ivory and 25% coral, but it came out more than 60% pink and less than 40% ivory. As a florist, Tess should know that the colors used in a bride's bouquet have a major role in the looks of the bouquet, and should be well paid attention to. - My husband's boutonniere was supposed to consist of a calla lily and a rose, but it came out with no rose. - My centerpieces were expected to have roses, lilies, Germinis, and snapdragons but they came out having roses, snapdragons and filler flowers only. As a florist, Tess should know that she should use the same flower types as promised to a customer. If she was to decide on the flowers to use in our centerpieces, what is the whole point of doing mock ups and going through rounds of emails on the details?! - She did not hang the promised crystals from our manzanita trees. - She used curly willows in our ceremony arrangements while I had asked her not to.

Tessfresh is amazing! We have only great things to say about them. Tessfresh did the flowers for my bridal shower as well as my wedding. I provided Thomas, one of their florists, with some images on how I imagined my wedding day photos would be. The morning of my wedding, I saw the bouquets and they took my breath away. The arrangements were even more beautiful than I had imagined. TessFresh was willing to work with us to meet our budget and the employees were always very friendly and helpful. We recommend them for any occasion! Great people, awesome service and beautiful flowers!

I was so nervous doing my wedding from out of town but I got in touch with Tess Fresh and with a couple emails and phone calls they had be all set up and got me what I wanted! The price was great and we had no issues dealing with them!

Tess was great. She was so organized and helped use visualize what were were going to get. She had these great flower panel samples (similar to paint panel samples) with flower types and colors. Not to mentioned she had TONs of pictures on her iPad of all the arrangements she's done even ones at our exact venue. This made it so easy to see how it would all turn out. She was great on helping us try to incorporate some of our ideas. We have lots of champange and wine bottles we wanted to incorporate in our wedding. She worked with using the bottles and even suggested cutting the necks of the champange bottles to add variety. They turned out amazing! We loved how everything turned out and the flowers were even more beautiful than we imagined. Tess was also a great value. She totally worked with our budget and suggested ways to cut costs, i.e. the in season flowers that were less expensives, fake flower for the flower girl ball, etc. We were really happy with her and her work.

Tess did a beautiful job arranging my flowers for the wedding day. She also gave me a free upgrade for my wedding centerpieces and was able to make some really good suggestions that fit my vision very well. When I walked down the aisle and into the reception room, the flowers looked better than expected. She was also very kind and easy to work with. You can definatley tell she has a talent for flower arrangements. One thing that was a little bit difficult was getting answers to my questions via email. At times it took a little bit for them to get back. Sometimes calling them was better. I would definately recommend this vendor for your wedding day. They are a great value, provide great service and beautiful flowers!

Tess Fresh is amazing! They provided beautiful flowers that EXACTLY matched the designs I had created in my wedding collage. The flower arch was gorgeous and the bouquets were stunning. My bridesmaids and I fretted about what to do with our bouquets afterward because they were so gorgeous. Tess and team have really high standards. They work hard to make sure that your flowers fulfill your desired look.

Tess and her team are visionaries! I knew exactly what I wanted and they made it come true! The flowers were so beautiful and they were priced very afforable.Tess has been doing our families' events for years and there is no greater place in San Diego.

As a very simple bride, I have been in a lot of weddings where I leave my little $100 bouquet behind for the grandmas to pick up. As a bride I went into the wedding planning process with this knowledge and a very simple idea for flowers and frills. After speaking with Tess Fresh over the phone (desintation wedding) it was a match made in heaven. They respected my simple style, suggested types of flowers that could be used at the time of year we got married and made suggestions for the most simple arrangements. I met with them one time prior to the wedding and they knew exactly what looked great and made further suggestions that were extremely cost effective! Best of all, THEY DELIVER and RENT vases, bowls, mirrors etc! LOVE LOVE LOVE this vendor!

Gorgeous flowers, great price! Ready on time. I will use them for all my events.

One of the things that we really liked about Tess was that we went in with no idea of what we wanted in terms of floral arrangements for our wedding. All we knew was that we wanted a bird of paradise somehow involved in our centerpieces. Just with that little bit of information, she worked with us to create a very unique and beautiful arrangement. Throughout the process, she was always suggesting unique and creative ideas to make our arrangements special, yet classy and elegant. While we didn’t know exactly what we wanted, we were highly selective and knew we didn’t want traditional, boring flowers. Tess’s wide knowledge of different flowers, which flowers compliment each other, and familiarity with our wedding site all contributed to her making the best suggestions for our ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and accessory flowers. Additionally, a couple of weeks prior to the wedding, she had a meeting with us and went over every little detail of our flower choices. We really appreciated her attention to detail and commitment to making sure everything was perfect. She is also very, very reasonably priced and worked with us to stay within our budget. Everyone loved our floral arrangements and complimented us on how unique and beautiful they were.
