Tatiana and the Thrive Team were truly amazing to work with. They communicated with us the entire process, made last minute changes, and were extremely supportive throughout the da...
y. The florals were absolutely stunning. The bouquets, the centerpieces, the boutonnieres, and corsages were all thoughtfully designed and matched the vibe and atmosphere of our wedding.
We also appreciated that Tatiana did not try to pressure or upsell us into additional florals and spending more money. She was transparent on the cost and worked within our budget.
Highly recommend!
Thrive Floral has a special place in my heart! They helped us achieve our dream wedding and we are still not over it! When we started this wedding journey, I couldn’t stress enough...
the importance of the flower design to my fiance. I helped him understand the vision as the creative director/bride and he was just so excited to see this come to life! So when we met Tatiana, she immediately worked with us to ensure we were getting the absolute most out of our budget. Everything came out so incredibly beautiful on the actual day, we left our guests speechless! They could not stop talking about the colorful flowers and the table decorations. You can tell that Tatiana puts so much love and care into her work and I don’t think the pictures do the day justice. So glad we went with Thrive and we are so grateful to have had them on our big day!
Our wedding flowers were absolutely beautiful and truly matched my vision perfectly. From start to finish, they were so easy to work with. Highly recommend!
Are you looking for a florist? Seriously, look no further. I cannot say enough amazing things about Thrive!!! I was absolutely blown away by the florals at the ceremony and how bea...
utifully they set things up in the reception area. They quite literally brought my Pinterest board to life. I was on a very tight budget and did not think I would be able to have such gorgeous florals (I was actually considering renting fake flowers - so glad I didn't!). Thrive worked with my budget while still giving me the colorful, beautiful florals of my dreams. The flowers were the number one thing I received compliments about after the wedding. Tatiana's team added in little touches on the day-of that really elevated the look of the tablescapes, and as someone who is not very artistic/creative, I really really appreciated that attention to detail and initiative!
Thrive Floral did an amazing job for our wedding. Tatiana was incredibly collaborative, working closely with us to bring our vision to life while staying within our budget. Her com...
munication was excellent—she was always responsive, helpful, and thoughtful throughout the entire process.
What really stood out was how she went above and beyond, even recommending flower preservation companies after the wedding. It truly felt like full-service care from start to finish.
We couldn’t have been happier and would highly recommend Thrive Floral to anyone planning their wedding!

ss. Everything from her professionalism, pricing, and vision were exactly what I was looking for. Just a month out from the wedding, I had a change of heart on what our ceremony altar florals should look like and not only did Tati welcome the change, she was THRILLED to do it and made me even more excited. When all was said and done, that ended up being my favorite part of the whole wedding aesthetic. Do yourself a favor and hire Thrive Floral Designs!!

e does and cares about her clients. When I decided to mix up my vision with some color, Tati chose the most beautiful hues to mix into my white, green and natural palette. My guests said they were some of the prettiest floral arrangements they've ever seen. Her and her team were timely, professional and efficient on wedding day.

lso used her expertise to help bring my imagination into reality. Tatiana is incredibly accommodating, and her communication was great throughout any changes I threw at her.
A few guests came up to me during the wedding to comment on how much they loved the florals, and one of my bridesmaids loved the florals and saw how easy it was to work with her team on the wedding day that she has also booked with Thrive for her wedding next year.
Tatiana and her team provided exceptional service and delivered the most beautiful floral arrangements for my event. The flowers were fresh, vibrant, and perfectly arranged—far bey...

I have nothing but amazing things to say and a deep amount of gratitude for working with Thrive and Tatiana (the owner). They were easy to communicate with, gave updates if they ex...
pected delayed responses for busy season, and were so efficient on both calls/emails and in their proposal process. They heard my vision and made it even better with their expertise and suggestions. I love that they respected my budget and were only ever trying to work within that instead of trying to upsell. With a simple Pinterest board as inspiration, they were able to make a proposal that was spot on and the execution on the day of was PHENOMENAL. Before the ceremony even started I was hearing compliments. It added to our venue in the best way and they were able to bring so much color in the most elegant way. The setup and cleanup was seamless and everyone that was there was so kind and polite. The epitome of professionalism. I would suggest them to any couple getting married and for any and all floral needs outside of weddings as well. I hope I get to work with them in the future!
Tatiana is INCREDIBLE!!! The amount of people who have commented on how beautiful my flowers were at my wedding was insane!! Even the guys at the wedding were commenting on how bea...
utiful the flowers were. I had people telling me they were the most beautiful flowers they have ever seen at a wedding. I truly cannot thank Tatiana and her team enough for being SO easy to work with and just so amazing overall. My experience working with them was a 10/10 and I will recommend Thrive Floral to everyone I know.
Hey Tatiana!
I wanted to express our heartfelt gratitude for the stunning floral arrangements you provided for our wedding. The flowers were absolutely beautiful and came together...

Tatiana was so professional, responsive and so lovely to work with even after we had to change our contract/proposal a few times. She really is an expert in her field and was so understanding when we had to make changes to ensure we were staying within budget. We truly felt like we were in good hands and we got so many compliments on all the floral! 100000% recommend booking Thrive Floral!

From the moment I reached out to Tatiana at Thrive she was extremely helpful in the planning process and explained every single detail over the phone and in person. She responded very quickly to all my questions and worked closely with me to make sure we had everything we needed for our big day.

rything we wanted into our budget. She was responsive and helpful. I shared my ideas and she turned them into a beautiful, creative masterpiece. All everyone could talk about were our flowers and I don’t blame them- the most beautiful arrangements I’ve ever seen. Can’t recommend enough!
Shortly after our initial consult, I already knew I wanted to hire Tatiana and her team. She's honest and accommodating. I was telling what my visions for our wedding florals were ...
and she gave tips and advice on how to save a buck or two versus other vendors who try to upsell you. Throughout the entire planning process, Tatiana was very responsive, whether it was a text or emails. Tatiana and her team arrived to the drop off location on time and even explained everything to the person in charge there and even texted me, in case. All my floral arrangements were so breathtaking. I loved my bouquet so much! The BMs bouquets were gorgeous as well. I cannot recommend Tatiana and her team enough. I've told her numerous times that she was one of my favorite vendors and I cannot wait to hire her for my next floral needs. You won't be disappointed, I promise.
Don’t hesitate, book with this team!! They were magical for my wedding on 5/6/23. Tatiana was very responsive and thorough. She’s also very considerate of budget, which I was so th...
ankful for. She provided me with additional options I was considering when every other florist I spoke to didn’t even try to. Tatiana sent me a very detailed breakdown of the flower types, colors, pricing, rentals, etc. I was blown away by the details and even more impressed with her willingness to alter items in this list. For example, I wanted to add more purple flowers to the tables and she immediately changed it! It was breathtaking seeing her vision and the way that she brought my dream florals to life. I cannot thank her and her team enough! Thrive Florals was certainly one of my top 2 vendors for my wedding day, I cannot recommend them enough!!!
Tatiana is truly an artist! She made me floral vision come to life. I wanted a beautiful fall wedding & she made it happen. My bridal bouquet was flawless. The bridesmaid bouquets,...
the boutonnières, & corsages were so gorgeous. Tatiana designed our table centerpieces, aisle decor, & ceremony arch. Every single floral arrangement was flawless & my dream come true. Highly recommend hiring Thrive Floral Designs for any event. They are so talented!!
Tatiana made us the most beautiful flowers for our wedding. The floral proposal was so easy and convenient---we received a link with an inspiration pic for each item along with a b...
reakdown of each individual flower in every piece. She took my vague suggestions and made something so much more gorgeous than we hoped for! They were delivered the morning of the wedding, which I wasn't sure we needed but was so convenient during the craziness of day-of prep. They looked amazing both in person and in photographs, and we got so many compliments. I am so glad I found her company!!

Tatiana absolutely made my bridal floral dreams COME TRUE!!! After first meeting with her a year before my wedding, we just clicked instantly. She knew exactly what vision I had, a...
nd also offered the best recommendations from flower types, centerpiece types, heights, bouquet design, EVERYTHING. I've recommended her to friends and family getting married already. Seeing my bouquet the morning of my big day actually brought tears to my eyes. It was so breathtakingly beautiful. Tatiana is not only a talented professional, she really has a passion for the art of florals and that does not go unnoticed. All of the guests to this day are still talking about how gorgeous all the floral arrangements were! Besides the florals, Tatiana also recommended some other amazing decor items I should include, and some tips to not break the bank, which was greatly appreciated. Everything went off without a hitch. She was on time, communicative, friendly, and just a true class act. I hope I have another excuse in the future to use her services again. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend!
Looking for a florist was very stressful, I didn’t have any luck finding anyone with the aesthetic I was looking for. I was starting to get worried, because all of the wedding time...
lines, said I should have had a florist booked already. One night while driving my husband spotted a truck that read Thrive Floral designs. I looked up her instagram & It was a match! I reached out & Tatiana was fast to respond, very professional and easy to talk to about my vision. Tatiana was very patient with me in my decision making process. I could not be more happy with the execution day of wedding. Tatiana made magic happen. We had a last minute emergency with our cake & she added flowers last minute to it & saved the day. Tatiana stayed until after our ceremony to repurpose some of our floral arrangements. I could not have picked a more amazing florist. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making my venue look like something out of a magazine. It was absolutely gorgeous. We got so many compliments all night. Thank you, thank you, thank you ❤️

he made us feel at ease at each stage of planning. Her proposals broke down each floral design and allowed us to really feel involved in the decision making process. Tatiana met us at our venue to help us get a feel for the layout and our design as well as the scale of the florals. She is flexible and patient and works with you even with some last minute changes and fixes :) Tatiana has a natural gift for making unique pieces and won’t shy away from doing something creative!! We had her team build us a chuppah from scratch and it was great. We also had floral dog collars which were so cute and easy for them to wear. Thrive Florals will make arrangements with unique flowers and your wedding won’t look like anyone else’s. ALL AT A VERY VERY REASONABLE PRICE POINT.
Picking florals were one of the least stressful parts of wedding planning and I owe that all to Tatiana and her team. Thank you so much again!

ons. She was reponsive to all my questions, only thing I sometimes had to nudge a bit to get her feedback. But also know that this was a very busy wedding season. I loved how everything turned out on our wedding day, was so in love with my and my bridesmaid's bouquets and how Tatiana set up the decorations for our several venues. I couldn't have imagined it more beautiful. Very glad to have followed the recommendation from our venue to hire Tatiana.

d to do everything I could to work with them! Working with Tatiana was so seamless and comfortable. We had an intro call with via FaceTime (I live in Denver and our wedding was in Chicago) and she just understood my vision perfectly. Throughout the planning process she was so responsive and gave her opinions on things I was truly confused about and I literally always told her "I trust you with my life". I am a type A / OCD bride so my mind was changing a lot and she just rolled with me. Fast forward to the day of.. I don't even know where to being - she is a creative GENIUS and she brought my vision to life with all of her suggestions. She did our floral for the rehearsal dinner, ceremony, cocktail hour, cake, and reception. She puts so much thought and passion into her work and it shows. I just cannot recommend Tatiana and her team enough!! If I could scream it on top of a mountain I would <3
Tatiana went above and beyond for our wedding day! I mean truly, she made our floral dreams come to life. And not only were the florals absolutely breathtaking (I lost count of how...

Picking a florist is not easy. However, if you're looking for a great one -- choose Thrive! Tatiana was SO easy to work with and willing to accommodate our ever-changing preference...
s. We didn't realize how many details were involved in picking out flowers for our wedding. We sent Tatiana a few photos and discussed what we were looking for... she took it and ran with it. Meaning she NAILED our inspiration board. It was *literally* exactly what we were looking for. Day of, the flowers were incredible. You would think they had just been picked from the garden out back. We received countless comments on how beautiful the flowers were from our guests. Seriously, hands down, go with Tatiana and her team. You won't regret it!

Tatiana and her team from Thrive Floral Designs were absolutely incredible, before, during and after our wedding. My partner and I had a last-minute, intimate ceremony that ended u...
p looking like it fell out of a Vogue magazine. We wanted clean, elegant, and classic finishes to our venue and TFD made that happen with all the fine floral details. Tatiana was so receptive to our interests and had so many choices to offer. She worked with our time line and made sure to reduce our stress levels at every point. She provided an entire vision board, a price break down and other suggestions in a packet that made floral shopping incredibly simple and efficient. On the day of, she and her team were early for set-up, beyond prepared with extra florals, greenery, and candles, and went far beyond what we had initially requested. Our ceremony venue looked better than we had envisioned and we truly could not be happier. She and her team also pitched in to help set up chairs, wipe tables, and make sure everything was perfect -- even if it was not related to florals. Tatiana, Jeffrey and I could not be happier. We are beyond grateful and cannot wait to work with you again. We have been recommending you to all our friends and wish you great success with your business. TFD has set the bar VERY high. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
