Marlene and the rest of the team at Verbena Designs were so amazing to work with. From the first meeting I knew this was going to be the florist we would use for our wedding. They brought our vision to life and we are still getting endless compliments on our flowers!
Response from the Vendor on 10/05/2024
Thank you for the kind words. We had such a great time bringing your vision to life and are so happy for you. Congratulations!
WOW. Verbena was a preferred vendor for our venue, and we are SO HAPPY we went with them. They were super knowledgeable and helpful, working with us and our budget. The day of the wedding, the decorator who arrived was so sweet and supportive and just kept telling me how beautiful I looked. She went above and beyond and I’m really happy I was able to meet her. We are so happy we went with them and would recommend them to anyone looking for flowers for their event. Flowers were just absolutely stunning.
When my bouquet arrived, the entire bridal party was speechless, it was the most unique, gorgeous bouquet we'd ever seen! The same goes for the alter and aisle runner flowers and the bridesmaids flowers. I had a lot of leaves in everything and the colors they were able to preserve were incredible, especially for my leaf boys (instead of flower girls, we had two little boys throwing leaves) the colors were vibrant and stunning! Everything was perfection!
Any questions?
Verbena far exceeded our expectations for our wedding and made our day so special! We were BLOWN away when we saw our ceremony & reception rooms. It was everything we’ve dreamed of and more. I knew I wanted to book Verbena as soon as I saw their floral arrangements at our venue and then again at a showcase. Jen & Marlene were great to work with and very communicative. They listened to everything we asked for and the attention to detail was immaculate. Truly such a wonderful experience and we’re so happy to have gotten to work with Jen & her team. Thank you!!!!!
We are absolutely in love with the beautiful work Verbena Designs did for our wedding. From our first phone call, we felt like they really understood what we wanted. Our contract included all the inspiration photos we had sent in. Marlene was our point of contact and was very responsive. About 3-4 weeks before the wedding, we had several things we wanted to add on for our big day (small bud vases + candles, flower box, etc) and they gladly took this all on and executed it beautifully. When we walked into our reception room and saw all the centerpieces and arch, we were truly amazed. 100% recommend using Verbena Designs!
I cannot recommend Verbena Designs highly enough for their exceptional work in creating the most stunning floral arrangements for our fall wedding. From the very beginning, they truly understood our vision and brought it to life in a way that exceeded our wildest expectations. Marlene, our wonderful point of contact at Verbena Designs, was an absolute gem throughout the entire process. She listened attentively to our ideas and preferences, ensuring that our vision was executed flawlessly. On our wedding day, when we first saw the floral arrangements, we were utterly speechless. The stunning bouquets, centerpieces, and decor were a true work of art. The choice of colors and the combination of flowers created a magical atmosphere that had our guests talking and admiring throughout the entire day. If you're looking for a florist that not only meets but surpasses your expectations, Verbena Designs is the way to go. They are true artists, and we couldn't be happier with the magic they brought to our special day.
They are they preferred florist for SCM. I truly loved our flowers and they ended up decorating our sweet heart table as a gift to us. They were responsive via email and and I also loved on our contract they provided visuals of similar flower inspo of work that had done before so it was easy to keep track of what we had. Also all the flowers from the ceremony for repurposed in the reception space and it looked so great in there.
Where to begin?! From our first meeting to our wedding day, I knew we were in good hands and trusted that our flowers would be gorgeous. Somehow, even knowing that, Verbena truly exceeded my wildest dreams. I burst into happy tears when I saw our bouquets, and was absolutely blown away by our ceremony arch, the arrangement for our sweetheart table, our centerpieces, and all the little touches of leaves, greenery, and florals that they sprinkled throughout our reception space. Our flowers honestly made my entire day; our ceremony was supposed to be outdoors but it poured the day of my wedding, so we had to move everything under our reception tent. I was very upset about this right up until I saw our flowers; they were showstopping and transformed our ceremony and reception spaces into something absolutely dreamy and magical. Jen and her team are exceptional and very easy to work with, and the value you get for your money is fantastic. They were super respectful of our budget and never pressured us into spending more, and our flowers looked like we had spent thousands more on them than we actually did. We had the absolute best experience with Verbena, I cannot recommend them enough!!!
What talented florists!!!!
I knew when I went for my centerpiece mock up I hired the right people! I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted I just had a concept in my head. I explained this to Jen and kind of hoped for the best because what was in my head seemed impossibly in cohesive so I wasn’t sure how it was going to work. My god did she make it happen! It was like she opened my head dug around my brain and recreated what was in there!
The same went for when I walked into my venue and saw what was created!!!
Absolutely stunning! My bouquet was more beautiful than I can ever imagine! I am still getting compliments on how gorgeous my decor and flowers were
Verbena was amazing!! My flowers for my wedding were so perfect and looked so beautiful. I was beyond happy with them. They were so easy to work with and great with communication. Couldn’t have asked for a better florist. 10/10!
I don’t have enough great things to say about the team at verbena designs! Jen, Marlene, Jaime and everyone there brought my floral dreams to life! They were extremely easy to communicate with and we’re always so accommodating to our requests. They did a beautiful job with our bouquets, ceiling greenery, centerpieces, sweetheart table, pergola, and staircase greenery. They also did a fantastic job decorating our memory table and memory chair at our ceremony to honor our loved ones. I would highly recommend verbena designs inc. if you are looking for a florist for your big event!
We first saw Verbena Designs' floral decorations as we were touring wedding venues, and we were blown away by how beautiful their floral designs were. From that moment, we knew we wanted them for our wedding!
Marlene was a pleasure to work with. She was extremely accommodating throughout the planning process, and she always gave great attention to detail.
Our wedding day turned out stunning -- our flowers were absolutely gorgeous. They fulfilled our vision to perfection!
I had Verbena Designs as my florist for my wedding on 8/24/23 at Sea Cliff Manor. As someone who did not care about having a lot of flowers and thinking no one would remember them, I was surprised that it was one of my favorite parts of our wedding.
We decided to reach out to Verbena Design since they were one of Sea Cliff Manor’s preferred vendors. We met with Marlene who was very informative and kind. I showed her what kind of style and colors I liked. I’ve been seeing a lot of colorful flower ideas on Instagram/pintrest and I just loved the way it looked.
When I walked into the venue on our wedding day, I saw Jen setting up the centerpieces. I had bud vases and dusty blue taped candles on each long table. I really was in awe of how stunning the flowers looked. I’ve never seen flowers so beautiful and vibrant. The bouquets were just as beautiful I wanted to hold mine all night. I have friends and family messaging me about how beautiful the centerpieces were and how nicely decorated the tables were. I’m so happy and thankful we decided to book a florist and that we chose Verbena. They really did such an incredible job and the flowers looked more stunning than I could ever imagined! You will not regret booking Verbena Design as your wedding florist I could not recommend them enough!
My wedding was literally breathtaking because of the floral decor. My bouquet was dreamy, huge, and colorful. My bridal party was similar, but I was distinct. My arbor was flowing with blooms and our small reception centerpieces were the perfect touch to our wildflower, waterfront, venue. My dream of flowing with wildflowers and natural blooms came alive. Jen and her team took a vision and made it real. They made my wedding day beautiful in every way. The small touches on the memorial table, place card, and bar added the extra touch of elegance and formality. I had NO IDEA it would be this gorgeous. I am so grateful Verbena decorated my wedding. It was absolutely perfect and Jen was easy to work with, accommodating, and kind throughout the whole process. You'll regret not choosing Verbena for your wedding.
Verbena Designs was amazing to work with! My wedding flowers were absolutely gorgeous, and everything looked exactly as I had requested. All of the staff members were very professional, responsive, and open to changes that we wanted to make throughout the planning process. Would very highly recommend Verbena Designs!!
My wedding flowers were everything I had hoped they would be. My bridesmaids all wore different colors, so I sent the swatches to Jen and her team and told them to do their thing. Our bouquets were beautiful and our centerpieces were to die for. I received an unbelievable amount of compliments on our flowers. I could not recommend Verbena enough.
Highly recommend!!! I worked with Verbena for my April 2023 wedding at Sea Cliff Manor. The flowers were absolutely stunning and we got so many compliments on them. The decor on each table, the chuppah, corsages, bouquets, etc. were all stunning. I changed my flowers after my initial consult, and Verbena was so flexible in helping me make changes.
Verbena designs was 100% the right decision to make for floral arrangements. The staff is extremely friendly, quick to respond, and highly professional. We got married in December and were aiming to do a winter themed wedding with a lot of greenery and candles used as decor. When I walked in during the day of the wedding the venue was even more beautiful then I could have even imagined. Every inch of the venue fit our winter/woodsy theme and Sara from Verbena did an absolutely amazing job with the arrangements and setup of the chuppah. Everything they did was perfectly executed and I am beyond happy with the service we received. Thank you to Jamie, Kim, Sara, and the entire Verbena team for making my wedding more beautiful then I could have dreamed.
From the first consult with Jen we knew our wedding would be in the best hands by booking verbena. Verbena & co was extremely detailed to ensure my vision was exactly executed (which it totally was). My bouquet was insane, 100% spot on to my photo inspo. Everything was absolutely stunning from the bridesmaids bouquets, entrance piece, and those center pieces!!!! Everyone was raving. Couldn’t say enough nice things about them. Beautiful work and even nicer people to work with.
We worked with Verbena for our November wedding and had an excellent experience. Jaime was a joy to talk to and she brought our vision to life in her initial proposal. The flowers at the event arrived right on time and were even more gorgeous than I had imagined. The pricing is very fair and the work is top-notch. We will recommend Verbena to all our friends and family members holding events in the area!
Jen and the entire Verbena team were fabulous to work with. I had a Zoom call with Jen early in our planning process and just from meeting with us and viewing my Pinterest board, she absolutely nailed my aesthetic and the romantic/boho feel I was going for. Jen helped us execute our vision while staying in budget and gave very great feedback on things she didn’t think were necessary for us to stay in budget. We were able to view a sample centerpiece prior to the wedding (it was perfect!), but you never know based on one centerpiece how the rest of the florals will look the day of and I was SO pleasantly surprised with everything! The attention to detail and quality of the flowers as well as their knowledge of the venue made working with them a dream and I would highly recommend using them!
I can't even begin to explain how much I loved working with Verbena for my wedding in July. From the moment I booked them, I knew I was in good hands. Their communication and organization is top notch and I was never left waiting for a response to any email. When I saw the mockup of my centerpieces I couldn't even believe how beautiful it was. Jenn and Jamie were so great to work with through the entire process. On my wedding day, my bouquet and bridesmaids bouquets were beyond words, I literally cried when I saw them when Jenn dropped them off to my house. The church flowers, the reception centerpieces, every single thing was beyond what I could have imagined for my wedding day. I will recommend Verbena to everyone I know, they truly love what they do and are SO great at it.
Jen and Jaime are amazing at what they do. My centerpieces were incredible! They were able to nail the vision I wanted with my flowers. My bouquet was gorgeous and exactly what I asked for. They were very accommodating to anything we asked and so kind throughout the whole process. I highly recommend Verbena designs!
JEN IS THE BEST. The florals were gorgeous and she enhanced all our homemade centerpieces to look so beautiful. She also was such a kind, creative person any time we communicated. So happy I was able to utilize her talents for such an important day.
Overdue review!!! I had Verbena Designs do flowers for our sons 1st birthday party at our home. The theme was under the sea. Verbena took my theme to a whole other level with their perfectly designed flower arrangements in the prettiest oranges and blues arranged into hand painted sea blue ombre pots and lots sea shells! A true work of art!!!
The team at Verbena took the budget i gave them and nailed every single aspect of our day. From the bouquets to the centerpieces to the decorative flowers on the cake and in the venue we could not have been more thrilled. They were prompt, friendly, met with us multiple times, made mock ups for us to see and they exceed every vision i had. Would highly recommend!
Beyond! that's the word that comes to mind when trying to write a review about Jen and Verbena Designs. She and the team went so above and beyond for my daughter's recent wedding, i'm still in AWE. The designs were absolutely spectacular. The selection, colors, placement, variety of shapes and sizes were so impeccably coordinated they blew everyone away the moment they walked into the ballroom. I knew they were going to be fabulous since we had a sample centerpiece made a month before the wedding, but seeing all of them together throughout the venue completely WOWED me. Jen was able to capture exactly what we wanted and more.... Aside from her artistry, she is a pleasure to deal with. Throughout the planning process, Jen patiently educated us on flowers and their seasons and what we could expect then guided us expertly to make our decisions. Each and every communication we had with anyone at Verbena Designs either virtual, in person, email or text was timely, detailed and professional. I cannot say enough positive things about Verbena Designs. THEY WERE SIMPLY BEYOND!
The Verbena team is absolutely amazing!! Jaime is a dream to work with. She was clear, quick to respond, worked with our budget and completely took my vision and brought it to life while exceeding all of my expectations. Everyone couldn’t stop complimenting how gorgeous my flowers were!
The Verbena team was absolutely incredible.
Due to postponements, I worked with them for almost three years and every time I wanted to make a change to my florals, they were so helpful and quick to respond.
The flowers on my wedding day turned out amazing and the guests gave me so many compliments on the floral design of the ceremony and the reception.
The Verbena team really made my design vision come to life and I couldn't recommend them enough!
They made my vision come to life beautifully! I would recommend them to everyone.
I am SO beyond thrilled we chose Verbena to do our flowers for our wedding! Flowers were not on my top priority list but knew I needed to have them to brighten up our room and pictures. I am SO glad we went with a florist instead of me trying to DIY my centerpieces! When meeting with Jen, the owner, she was absolutely amazing from the start. We instantly clicked with her and she was so easy to work with. Jen was thorough, kind, understanding, and honest. Honesty was an important feature we looked for in our vendors. She worked with us and helped us decided on the best option for our wedding and theme/color scheme while staying within our budget. Jen and her team truly have an eye for flower design! I was obsessed with my flowers on my wedding that I actually had them preserved to display in years to come. Jen was so patient with my 5 million changes as I could not make up my mind of what I wanted. She was able to guide and help me make the right decisions. We had all low centerpieces for our wedding. We had flowers within a pumpkin on half of the tables and a ring of flowers with a lantern on the other half. Her flowers were vibrant and beautiful the day of! All of my guests took home centerpieces (I really should say took and ran!!!) and I was upset because I wanted to go home with one of each and only got the pumpkin!! LOL She hand delivered the flowers the day of the wedding herself to my house as well as my fiancé's house (at the time) and all the bouquets came beautifully wrapped. Run don't walk to book Jen and her team! We will definitely be using her in the future!
They did a good job with our center pieces and replicating the picture of my bouquet I wanted that I sent pictures of. They also were able to use a piece of my wedding dress (cut during alterations) as the ribbon on my bouquet. It looked gorgeous on it! I was bummed though seeing brown spots on the white roses and on some of the boutonnières.
**After our bridal party entered the reception the Vineyards put all of the bouquets lined up on our sweetheart table! Multipurpose!!
I don't think there are words to describe the amazingness that the Verbena team created for us! They turned an empty castle into the most gorgeous garden of our dreams! I worked with Jen to design our first wedding (which was postponed due to Covid) and again on our rehearsal dinner and wedding that took place 14 months later. We changed venues, and the one we ended up with was nothing like the first (at a vineyard), but we really had our hearts set on a specific look. Jen, Jaime and their team turned this castle into the most magnificent garden and truly truly exceeded my wildest dreams! On top of that they are wonderfully kind, patient, and just such a pleasure to work with! I can't thank them enough and would recommend them to anyone looking for a florist for any occasion!
Jen and Jaime are amazing at what they do! We used them for our wedding on 2/26/22 at the vineyards at aquebogue. I wanted a very whimsical/natural look with a lot of greenery and they made it a reality. When I went to meet with them, I hadn't realized that most of my inspo pictures had actually come from their instagram (lol!). And the day of was more perfect than I couldve imagined. From my bouquet, to the greenery on the stair railings, to the entrance table, to the flowers on the cake, it was all my vision come to life. I wouls 100000% recommend them to make your dream a reality!
Jen and Jaime are an expert duo! At my first meeting with them, I knew that Jen immediately understood the look I was going for to fit our wedding aesthetic. They were able to work around our budget, and when we put together our small COVID wedding they were flexible with creating some last minute table scapes as well as the most gorgeous bouquets for me and my bridesmaids. Finally seeing their work in our wedding venue this year blew me away. They created another bridal bouquet for me that was similar to my 2020 one but had it's own flavor, as well as a matching wreath for my dog that seriously stole the show. The reception room was romantic, classic and everything I wanted. I cannot thank them enough for the work that they did, and know that we will use them again in the future!
Verbena Designs more than exceeded my expectations. They matched my wedding style exactly, were prompt, easy to work with, and I could not have been happier. All of the arrangements were stunning and I received endless compliments!! 10/10 would reccomend
I worked with Verbena Designs for a recent wedding and as a wedding coordinator, let me tell you...they are amazing!! Jen and her team are so nice and easy to work with. The floral design for the couple's ceremony was gorgeous and matched the couple's theme perfectly. Their reception design was also absolutely beautiful, and they moved things seamlessly from ceremony to reception. The couple was extremely happy and they made working with them on wedding day a breeze. I 100% recommend them - you will not be disappointed!
I had booked Jen with Verbena designs for my 10/16 elopement and 10/23 wedding. She blew us all away for both events with her floral designs.
I have no concept of color theory but I knew I wanted “fall” themes. All I had to do was give Jen my color swatch for my bridesmaids dresses and she did the rest. She was so kind and amazing to work with. Jen is quick with responses and will work with your budget. In addition, Jen will be flexible when it comes to changes with centerpiece numbers and anything else that may come up. I had originally wanted lanterns but 1 week before the wedding changed my mind and it was no problem at all for Jen.
She provided us with such beautiful centerpieces and bouquets. They were so complimentary of the dresses we had. She is a wizard with florals and you will not regret working with her. If you give Jen creative freedom, she will blow you away with her ability to create amazing arrangements that will definitely enhance your day.
When you are looking for flowers for your wedding, Bar/Bat Mitzvah or any other special occasion, look no further than Verbena Designs. Jen and her staff are absolutely wonderful. Jen listens to what you want, offers suggestions and the result is exactly what you had in mind. She had such patience, called back whenever we had questions and never made us feel we were bothering her. Jen is so sweet and accommodating! We chose Verbena designs for our daughter's wedding and everything was beautiful. The flowers in the synagogue, the chuppah and the gorgeous flowers on each table did not disappoint! Planning a wedding can be very stressful and Jen made the flower decorating process easy! BRAVO to Jen and her crew!!
Verbena blew me away with their arrangements. From the second I came into Jen's studio 3 years ago, I knew I wanted to work with her. She was extremely understanding of my vision and worked within my budget. I got so many compliments on the flowers at my wedding that I can't even count. Jen was so sweet and accommodating. I wish Verbena only success in the future.
Jen, Jamie and the Verbena team are just a dream to work with. We shared our vision with them and they truly brought it to life. I'm so truly appreciative of their work -- they are really exception and I'm so grateful we got the opportunity to work with them. They are the absolute best.
From the moment we left our first consultation with Jen, we knew we were going to use Verbena. We met with several other florists and Verbena was by far the most impressive and easy to work with. To top it off, Jen sent us a proposal with our exact vision and we were sold. Jen and her team are beyond incredible and talented. I cannot say it enough. Everything from our chuppah, to the bouquets, to the centerpieces were beyond our wildest dreams. Verbena is also great with communication and very flexible!! I recommend them to absolutely anyone!
Our bouquets, arbor and centerpieces were so full and beautiful!
We used Verbena for our wedding ceremony and reception on May 21.
Jen and her team are just exceptional. Even before we booked with Verbena and were having meetings with different florists trying to find our match, Jen was extremely thorough and sent a very detailed proposal, complete with pictures, descriptions, and quotes for every single item on our list. She was also outstanding to work with during the pandemic and put a “soft hold” on a new date for our reception if needed, no questions asked. Jen and her staff are true visionaries, and absolutely captured my vision for the centerpieces and the bouquets. I don’t know much about flowers at all. I let Jen know a color scheme I wanted to stick with, and she ran away with the rest. On the wedding day, the flowers were delivered and were well packaged and just gorgeous. They truly nailed it! We got so many compliments about our arrangements the day of the wedding. We would absolutely work with Verbena again!
Run to book Verbena. We had met with a few florists and none truly understood what we were going for... until we met with Jaime and Jennifer from Verbena. They made my bridal bouquet dreams come true and made our vision of a rustic, nature, and garden theme come to life with simple greenery at our reception. They even incorporated accents of my favorite flower (and uncommon wedding flower) orange lilies on the cake to match my bouquet. They were extremely understanding and flexible through two covid postponements, our final table count decreasing (due to covid) and were easy to work with and fully understood our vision and saw it with us. They were also the lowest price estimate we got! Highly recommended!!
Our flowers were better than I ever could have imagined! The team at verbena is unlike any other. They brought my vision to life and then made it even better! Like many other 2020 couples, our plans changed multiple times right up until the day before. They were so flexible and easy to work with through all the changes. The bouquets, centerpieces and boutonnières were stunning. The flowers were fresh and plentiful. They perfectly executed the winter white look that I wanted. I feel so lucky to have been able to work with verbena!
Honestly, Jen and Verbena Designs gave us the bouquet/flowers of my dreams! They completely brought my color-scheme vision to life while using their own creative license to put together truly stunning arrangements. Definitely work with Jen and her team - you won't be disappointed!
Verbena Designs did an outstanding job for our wedding on November 1st, 2020. The bouquets and centerpieces were absolutely exquisite. Ours was supposed to be a June wedding but was postponed to Nov 2020 due to Covid. Verbena went above and beyond and was able to get the summer flowers we wanted that were totally out of season for November.
Verbena designs has been amazing to work with. They assisted me in adjusting my plans for my 10/16/2020 elopement and were extremely understanding about the stress of wedding planning at this time. They will also be working with me for my postponed wedding in 2021 and now that I saw my original bouquet, I am so excited to see what they come up with next! Everyone who works there is so kind and thoughtful, and people would not stop raving about my bouquet all night!!
We chose Verbena Designs to be our florist at our wedding and we couldn’t be happier! The flowers were absolutely amazing! They made the entire process extremely pleasant and simple. Our centerpieces, bouquets, boutonnières, and everything else were absolutely stunning. Verbena paid very close attention to detail and you can tell how fresh the flowers were. We highly recommend!
The Verbena Team was absolutely AMAZING to work with. We went to Jen with an initial vision of what we were looking for and they put together the most amazing final product. We were blown away!! They are so creative and a joy to work with. I can't say enough about how great it was to work with them and how amazing everything turned out. We are so grateful we found Verbena and so highly recommend them.
Verbena Designs was incredible to work with and brought my flower visions for my wedding to life, I would highly recommend them! There were certain add-ons I wanted but also didn't want to spend too much so they priced out everything up front and then let me cut out certain things to meet my budget. Jennifer has an evident passion for her job that makes working with her so enjoyable. I loved that Verbena provides you with a detailed contract including pictures so you know what to expect. They were punctual the day of and made everything stress free. From my bridal bouquet, sweetheart table, welcome table and outside ceremony, I loved how everything turned out thanks to Verbena.
Verbena Designs is truly a grade A business. We used them for our wedding this past weekend, as well as my bridal shower a few weeks ago. They have been so accommodating through the ups and downs of the pandemic and have supported us with our last minute requests/updates. Our wedding went from 300 people to 50 people, so obviously our floral needs decreased. Verbena was flexible and did not take advantage of our contract with them. They were super fair and worked with us every step of the way. Their flowers and set up were GORGEOUS. They were on time, professional, and just an all around pleasure to work with. How a business responds during these times means A LOT! My husband and I could not recommend them more!
Choosing Verbana Designs as our Floral Designer/Vendor was absolutely hands down one the best decisions we made!!! They made all our floral dreams truly a reality & gave us all the heart-eyed emoji feelings. Jamie and her team followed through on everything discussed & planned, and still floored us when seeing how everything came to life on our wedding day. It was all we could have imagined and more!!! We worked with Jamie from start to finish & she was equal parts an artist and a professional through it all. She was extraordinary easy-going, patient, collaborative, & honest when pulling aspects of “Pinterest/Instragram” inspiration and matching them with our own thoughts, needs, and budget. One of my FAVORITE aspects about Verbena and Jamie’s process where how organized they were from the very beginning!! They complimented my personality and spoke to my heart when after our first meeting, I received a several-page PDF document detailing & listing in the clearest way possible all the information that we discussed with images included. It was not only a type A’s dream, but matched the high quality of work and operation they have. They really get it and you!
Along the way in the planning process, my fiancé (now husband) and I updated & made revisions to this document several times, either via email or after an in-person meeting. The carry-over from conversations was impeccable highlighting how exceptional of a listener Jamie was & how conscious she was in her work. She also was amazing at educating us and employing her creativity to bring everything together. We really felt her partnership in our wedding and loved the check-points Verbena set out as well in terms of dates in place for payments & when we had to confirm our floral designs and then our quantities later on. They have built-in the option to also come in to see a “sample of a centerpiece” as well and this was a great opportunity & time to get all the important aspects of our vision confirmed and locked down. In the weeks and days leading up to our big day, Jamie was terrific at reaching out & verifying logistics. It was sincerely a wonderful experience, honor, and privilege to work alongside Jamie and her team leading up to our wedding day. Everyone in the workshop was always so friendly, would say hello, & offer us water when we walked in for a meeting. We met Jen, the owner, on two occasions as well, and she did the weddings of two of my husband’s cousins, she couldn’t be any sweeter! Verbena truly is consistent with their experience- never making you feel like a ‘number’ or ‘just another wedding.’ Jamie always gave us the attention, warmth, dedication, and involvement, all couples would want and deserve, and you felt confident they were a well-oiled operation that they would follow-through and deliver completely. When it came to our actual wedding day though, it really was just magical thanks to them! While I never got to personally see Jamie in-person the day of our wedding to give her a hug and thank her, everything was ninja status and timely, efficient, & labeled for the bride/groom, parents, bridal party and photographer. Also- simply BEAUTIFUL. Their florals are works of art and seriously thoughtfully crafted. I hope this review is the biggest form of a thank you that is deserved. If we ever need floral arrangements for any event in our future, we know Verbena is our only choice! Thank you, thank you, thank you, for everything- Jamie, Jen, & the entire Verbena team!
Verbena has been so accommodating and supportive during wedding postponements due to COVID. Jennifer was able to offer 50% refund toward the postponement date, even though the flower order was already placed/couldn’t be cancelled. Additionally, she personally called and offered to deliver a flower arrangement, given that they still had the flowers. On top of that, I mentioned that I was still having a small ceremony and she also provided a bridal bouquet and boutonnière. The flowers were gorgeous and we received so many compliments!!
Amazing job helping my husband and I figure out what would fit within our budget for our wedding in October while still making our vision come to life. The flowers were absolutely beautiful the day of and we were very happy with the service all throughout the process.
Verbena -- a staple in our household. After my brothers beautiful floral arrangements in 2017, we knew we needed to use Verbena's talent for our special day. They took an idea for a Christmas tree arch and made this spectacular, dreamy backdrop for our ceremony and reception. Jaime and Jen were super responsive via email and phone as well, which was a great perk as we were planning from out of state. They also were accommodating to our budget, helping us feel comfortable and excited about what was to come. We could not recommend their services more!
Verbena was incredible! We have been telling all of our friends that if they use any vendor we used from our wedding, it should be Verbena Designs. Jenn was our florist and did an incredible job--taking our vision and making it a reality. Of all our vendors, we enjoyed working with Verbena perhaps the most.
After shopping around for florists, and having remembered being very impressed by Verbena Designs' work at the Inn at New Hyde Park's showcase, I booked a consultation with Jaime. The bouquet she had shown me at showcase was the style and feel I was looking for for my own wedding. I wanted something natural, flowing, less greens, and evoking deep red hues of autumn.
I showed a few pictures and inspiration to Jaime, and she told me she immediately knew what flowers would look great in that type of theme. I ordered a bridal bouquet, boutonnieres, corsages, and a table garland with her.
A month from our wedding date was actually the only time I heard from Verbena, as I figured I'm not needed in the floral arrangement department! I trusted Verbena Designs Inc. to come up with florals which fit my theme, and let me tell you- I was blown away when I saw them for the very first time in my bridal suite and on my wedding day!
When I walked into the bridal suite, I thought the bouquet and boxed corsages/boutonnieres were gifts from my venue. Nope. This was the work of professional floral designers. Everyone complimented on how beautiful the bouquet was, and how lovely the garland complimented by sweetheart table; which gave it an "oompf."
I trust the floral designers with everything I could have imagined, and more. I would highly recommend Verbena Designs Inc.!
THE BEST EVER! We can’t thank you enough. Amazing, just absolutely stunning, from mine, and the bridesmaids bouquets, to the church pews, to our STUNNING center pieces. I cant get over how successful you were in bringing our vision to life. Just beautiful. Thank you isn’t enough!
Wow! I do not know where to start about how perfect this florist is! My flower arrangements were absolutely breathtaking on my wedding day, thanks to Verbena. Each piece was truly a work of art, and they even made my wedding cake look gorgeous! I could not have been happier with the results on my special day.
Our wedding was two weeks ago at Sea Cliff Manor! Verbena Designs was their preferred vendor and we booked Jamie the second we met with her! She truly brought our vision to life!! I changed my mind quite a few times and Jamie was right there to give recommendations and put into place exactly what we wanted. Our reception was truly breathtaking and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Jamie and her team to anyone who is currently looking for a fabulous design team!!!!
Over the course of planning my wedding I learned that not a lot of people had heard of Verbena Florists in the wedding circuit, and I was absolutely SHOCKED. Do not sleep on them, they are hands-down the BEST florist I’ve ever encountered and I whole-heartedly recommend them.
The people who work at Verbena are some of the kindest, nicest, and talented people I’ve ever worked with. When you have your consultation they give you all of their attention and time, and you can look through samples of their amazing work. They also have lots of nice flowers and sample pieces (like bouquets and such) in their store, so it’s incredibly easy to find inspiration and ideas. During the consultation they give you great feedback on what is possible, which flowers are in bloom during which season, which flowers to use to make your centerpieces look more full if you’re on a budget, and which would look best with your color palette. They truly are professionals and know their flowers inside-and-out.
I also over-estimated how many centerpieces I would need. I figured I’d have to pay for it, because it was in the contract, but they very kindly told me that it was OK and they lowered the number! How amazing is that! I feel like everything about wedding planning is trying to avoid getting price-gouged and taken advantage of, and here is this amazing company that actually wants to work with you and help you.
The flowers were delivered exactly on time, in nice boxes with plenty of water, and guests were raving about how beautiful they looked! ALL of the centerpieces were gone by the end of the wedding by guests who took them home (which is what we intended, so they don’t go to waste) and my mom took two of them and told me that they only started wilting two weeks later. I think that’s amazing and speaks to the quality of their stock and how well they work.
I know that Verbena is the preferred vendor to a few catering halls, but honestly they deserve to be the preferred vendor for all of Long Island! They’re a wonderful group of people to work with, who produce beautiful results. 10/10, highly, highly recommended!
Jenn and her team were awesome! I went to a couple of florists when we first started the planning process and they were all way too overpriced and lacked customer service. When we met Jenn, she made us feel welcomed and at home. She was extremely helpful and worked with our budget to give us the flowers of our dreams. You could really tell that she’s passionate about what she does because she understands and listens to you when you meet with her, especially since we had no idea what we wanted. Jenn was able to create our vision on hand during the initial visit and her genuine excitement and creativity is really what made us choose to work with her. The day of, Jenn and her team made our already beautiful venue pop and look like a real life fairytale garden. My bouquet was absolutely beautiful and so were the rest of the wedding party’s bouquets and flowers. I would recommend her in a heartbeat!
Verbena was one of my favorite wedding vendors, along with our photographer. We found them through our venue– they did all the flowers and decor at the showcase and I absolutely loved everything. We got their contact info that day and I reached out to them the next day. We scheduled a meeting with Jenn, where we went over their questionnaire, shared with her a pinterest board of what I liked, and basically told her I loved everything from the showcase. From there, we sat down and hashed through all the rough details we had at that point and she drew up a proposal. They do 2 weddings a day and were available on our date, so we booked right away, without hesitation. Once I got home, I had a full proposal with all the details laid out and pictures of all the flowers that would be included (what normal person knows the names of all these flowers?). As the wedding got closer, our budget got tighter. We talked to Jenn about tweaking it to get the price down to a part where we were comfortable, without compromising too much and she helped discuss our options. When I walked into my venue that day, I was blown away. Everything was even more beautiful than I ever could've envisioned myself. Jenn and her team took what was already an amazingly beautiful venue and brought it to an unworldly level. Even guests who pay little attention to those kinds of things asked us who did our flowers and decor. I tell everyone who asks (and maybe even some that don't ask) to choose Verbena. You will not be disappointed. My wedding would not have been what it was without Jenn and Jamie and the team.
I found Verbena on the Knot and after speaking with multiple floral vendors I decided that they were the one for me. They took care of my wedding at the Watermill this past weekend and did an absolutely stunning job! I can not wait to get the professional pictures back to share the botanical wonderland. It was perfect, something out of a pinterest post, me and my guests were absolutely blown away. The greenery and candles, on the tables, at the sweet heart table, down the aisle were breathtaking, but most important my bouquet... I have never seen anything so beautiful in my entire life. The different types of greenery with the white roses and pops of burgundy ( I dont even know what kind of flower it was but oh my wow!). I gave them pinterest pictures and asked them to do their best and they most certainly did. My guests were absolutely blown away. I highly recommend Verbena for your next event, their work is top notch and they have competitive pricing!
My wife and I went into planning with a vague idea of what we wanted the decor at our wedding to look like. Jenn took our ideas and turned them into something better than either of us ever expected. The highlight of the decor was the breathtaking arbor her and her team created. It was all so stunning. Her and her team made the image in our heads come to life and she made the process effortless. From the start we were confident in her ability to create what we wanted. After we went to see a sample of the centerpieces I couldn't wait to see how she would transform our venue. Verbena did not disappoint!
Recommended by a friend, and came through 100%. Friendly service that really listened to what I wanted. I had them do both the ceremony and reception and they were perfect for both.
Verbena made all my floral wedding dreams come true! They embraced my ideas and help guide me during the process. The entire team was an absolute pleasure to work with! I still have guests complimenting the floral arrangements, bouquets, and boutonnières!
I met with Jen at my first appointment and she was so helpful from day one. She knew what my budget was from the start and came up with beautiful ideas for the bouquets, center pieces etc., making sure it would all look perfect. She’s so creative and I got so many compliments since our wedding day. She is so passionate about what she does and helped me so much, as I don’t know much about flowers. We highly recommend Verbena – the flowers were gorgeous!
Trying to plan a wedding out of state has its challenges but Jaime from Verbena made my whole floral experience easy. They were able to bring my vision to life just through phone and email conversation. My flowers were BEAUTIFUL... completely exceeded my expectations. Can’t even begin to explain how happy I felt Seeing my flowers for the very first time on my wedding day. They were so easy to get in contact with and communicate with the entire time. Their pricing is very reasonable as well. Thank you!!!!
I cannot says enough amazing things about Verbena! From our initial meeting with Jenn I felt an immediate connection! I came in with a general idea of flowers and colors but from there, Jenn was able to really complete my whole vision. What I loved most about Verbena was that we were able to see a sample of our center pieces in the actual actual season of our wedding!
On our wedding day, Jenn, Jaimie and the rest of the team created the most beautiful bouquets, boutonnières and centerpieces! We can’t thank you enough and highly recommend verbena designs!
I started following Verbena on social media. I could not help notice how consistent their work was and always so stunning. A friend of mine used them for her wedding and the next day I booked an appointment to meet with Jamie. Their work was so beautiful. I showed Jamie some pictures and the vibe I wanted and she did the rest. They were so accommodating with my budget and able to create the look I wanted with everything in season. They flowers lasted so long after the wedding and I had the most stunning pergola to get married in front of. Truly so happy I have recommended to everyone I know because I loved working with them. Jamie personally delivered our flowers and was even 15 minutes early. Truly awesome!
Verbena Designs made my wedding floral dreams come true. From walking into their shabby chic gorgeous shop, I knew they were the ones to book with. I was so excited working with Jen and knew she and her team would create the most perfect whimsical, yet elegant and classic bouquets/arrangements ever. She listened to exactly what florals I was hoping for and made it all work in our budget. I was truly blown away. When those bouquets arrived to my hotel on my wedding day, I nearly cried. Everything was beyond beautiful! I couldn't wait to see the centerpieces and cake decorations. Those were beautiful too. I can't say enough great things about Verbena! So honored they created the florals for our wedding day.
I chose Verbena based on them being a preferred vendor for Sea Cliff Manor. I was an out of state bride, but they were extremely helpful from afar to the point that I put a deposit down with them before even really talking flowers. We had a pretty strict budget, but also wanted some different things and Jen made it work with only a small increase. The flowers the day of the wedding were beyond my expectations! The sunflowers and roses were spectacular in our
bouquets, centerpieces larger than I ever though, the pergola spectacular and all of the arrangements absolutely beautiful! They were also very timely the day of the wedding, and they responded to my emails promptly whenever I had questions. I would definitely recommend Verbena Designs to any bride looking for gorgeous flowers at an affordable price!
We used Verbena designs for a few Wedding related events. My sister and mother used them for my bridal shower. Jaime is BEYOND talented! She, along with the vision of my sister and mother, created the most beautiful Bridal shower I think anyone had ever been to. Jaime also created centerpieces for my mom’s house for the day of the Wedding that were absolutely breathtaking. Finally, Jaime created the most beautiful and perfect centerpieces for the venue at Sea Cliff Manor. She also created bouquets that would take your breathe away, as well as boutonnieres that were just perfect! My husband and I loved the flower, anemone, but since it was out of season, Jaime put together two other types of flowers to mimic them. No one knew and they were some of the favorite flowers amongst them all! The church was also decorated perfectly. Jaime was SO easy to communicate with and so flexible for all our meetings. She was perfectly on time for all the events. Verbena designs, Jaime in particular, was AMAZING. We would recommend this florist for ANY event you may have. Do not look anywhere else, just choose them!!
Verbena Designs was a recommended vendor with our Venue, The Inn at New Hyde Park and we got to see their work 1st hand at our bridal showcase - WOW.
I was blown away with their aesthetic & immediately knew they were the one! Jen and Jaime understood exactly the vibe and look I was trying to convey and were able to provide knowledge and insight. They were absolutely my favorite vendor to work with and made the stress of Wedding Planning a little less stressful
