I am so extremely grateful for all the work that Mandy did for my wedding. To say she is talented is the understatement of the year! My florals were absolutely stunning and all my ...
guests loved them.
I reached out to Mandy and said I wanted a funky, fun, colorful, retro kinda vibe and when I say she understood the assignment….SHE UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT!!! She also did the extra credit and gets an A++!
We had so many fun colors and she found the most unique and interesting plants to use in my bouquet. We also let her know how important it is for Zoe, my husky, to be part of our day and she made her a matching collar.
Not only did we get an amazing bunch of flowers, but The Nature of Things was also so wonderful in delivering our flowers, and their pricing was AMAZING! I had reached out to another florist who wanted five times the amount for what we received!
There was so much color and it really brought the fun vibe to our wedding! I am so grateful I found The Nature of Things for my florals as they really added so much to my day! Thank you again Mandy, your talent knows no bounds!!!

on, and they absolutely took it and ran with it — and on the day of, blew me away. I still get choked up thinking about seeing the arrangements for the first time... they took so much care and were so creative, detailed, and thoughtful. Months after my wedding I'm still getting compliments from friends, family, and friends of friends who have seen photos. Absolutely delightful.
I cannot get over how stunning my wedding florals were!!! They were able to work with my tight budget and still deliver my major asks. The pictures turned out stunning and I have n...

eing the wrong color however I don’t recall if we ever discussed the color that I wanted for the ribbon. Thankfully I had some ribbon with me and my wedding coordinator fixed it for me. Our wedding flowers lasted for a very long time after the wedding so I can say she truly does use a great quality of flowers. Overall we had a wonderful experience with them.
They were amazing! The talent, responsivness, and quality of work was perfection. Our flowers were the topic of conversation
at our wedding!
I talked to Dawn at least 6 months before my bridal shower where I shared my vision and color inspiration. She worked with me to figure out how many arrangements I needed for my la...
yout. She was so easy to talk to, discuss my ideas with, and she gave her professional feedback which I really valued. When the day of my bridal shower came, I saw the floral arrangements and I was speechless! They were SO gorgeous, bright, radiating spring - which is exactly how I wanted. I will share some pictures so you can see how amazing the florals looked and how well they matched the rest of my decor. I highly recommend the nature of things for your floral needs!
