For us a big priority was florals in making our DnD-theme wedding come to life, and wow...Viburnum delivered!!! I think "Feywild Fantasy" captures the overall vibe we wanted, and Viburnum executed it perfectly! Ashling and her team took our theme and ran several marathons with it! Flowers and foliage where everywhere, from the entryway to even the elevators! Every arrangement was so beautifully and perfectly put together with upmost care. Our bouquets were stunning and complimentary to our dresses. Our ceremony space was show-stoppingly gorgeous. Our reception space was even more magical! Words can't do the beauty justice, which is why there's many photos attached to this review. We also had Viburnum bring in new tables, couches, chairs, linens, countless candles; you name it, they brought it in. The team was so hard at work setting everything up from practically the crack of dawn. We're so grateful to everyone who helped make our perfect day come to life! You all made the perfect wedding happen! Thank you so much to everyone at Viburnum!!!
Rachel Pellichero at Viburnum is absolutely beyond incredible!! I really had no idea what I wanted for my floral aesthetic, ranging from color to design, and Rachel was extremely patient, caring, creative, and really a genius. She was able to help me decide what I truly wanted by working with me, answering my endless questions, mocking up endless examples, all with a smile on her face. I truly don’t know how she did it, but she made my wedding look absolutely magnificent, and it was at the same time exactly what I wanted, and better than what I ever could’ve hoped for! And similarly, though I knew exactly what I wanted my bouquet to look like, it was even more stunning and magical in real life than I could have ever dreamed.
Rachel is creative, artistic, and really has the magic touch. She is an absolute pleasure to work with, she is caring, understanding, and always goes the extra mile for her clients. She made something I was very stressed about so easy, fun and enjoyable. Both my sister and I used Rachel for our weddings that were 4 months apart, and both of us were truly floored at Rachel’s abilities and her personality. We are so sad to not be chatting with her often now that our weddings have passed!
I am telling all of my friends who are getting married soon that they MUST use Rachel!! It’s not even a recommendation - it’s a MUST!! And any floral needs in my future, I will be using Rachel, that is for sure!
I worked with Rachel at Viburnum and she completely brought my vision to life. She talked through everything with me and came up with the perfect vision board for our wedding. She worked within our budget and gave us gorgeous perfection. I loved our flowers so much and received so many compliments on them. I definitely recommend Viburnum.
Viburnum designs did such a beautiful job with the flowers at our wedding! They recreated exactly what we were looking for. They made the process so seamless throughout and the final result was incredible. I couldn't recommend them enough.
Viburnum was absolutely wonderful to work with for our wedding in July 2023. Our venue recommended them as their favorite florist, and we couldn't have been happier! From our very first planning meeting with Rachel, she totally understood our vision and had so many wonderful ideas. Vibrunum provided gorgeous florals for the ceremony and reception, and worked closely with our event designer to ensure we had everything we needed. We would highly highly recommend!
Viburnum Designs has absolutely beautiful florals!! I had a really hard time finding a florist for our wedding that didn't have a $10,000 minimum...which was a tad out of our budget for florals.
But then we found Viburnum Designs!!
From the first time I spoke with Rachel, I knew I was going to be pleased with the end result! She worked with us to bring our wedding vision to life while still maintaining our budget!! She truly was so realistic, but so helpful in brainstorming cost-friendly ways to make our dreams come true!!
We had gotten the most beautiful bouquets an boutonnières, a floral ceremony arch, elegant centerpieces, bar decor, and even a beautiful baby's breath cloud that hung above our dance floor for under that $10,000 minimum that so many other florists charge! The florals at our wedding truly brought our timelessly whimsical winter wedding vision come to life! My husband and I couldn't have been any happier!!
Thank you so much Rachel!! <3
Viburnum Designs provided the floral arrangements for our November wedding ceremony and reception, and they absolutely exceeded expectations. Rachel Pellichero led me through the process from start to finish - she is so knowledgeable, collaborative, and helpful. Rachel and team were great about making some last-minute pivots in the hours leading up to the wedding. No detail was left out of our design, and followed my "wedding mood board" to a T. Viburnum really brought our vision to life for our wedding day, and we couldn't have asked for a better team to trust with our day.
I worked with Rachel at Viburnum for my December wedding and she above and beyond all my expectations. We were so blown away when we saw our reception area. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend!
I worked with Rachel at Viburnum for our late October wedding, and she was great!!! From the first call we had I could tell she completely understood exactly what I was looking for and captured that perfectly on the wedding day. Viburnum was so easy to work with and i HIGHLY recommend them. They made the entire process so easy. Thank you Viburnum Designs!!!!
Rachel is the BEST! First, she was incredible to work with! Secondly, from from one inspiration picture, she executed my vision perfectly!!! Everything was absolutely stunning. As soon as friends & family walked in the room they said “Wow, this is so Amanda!” It takes extreme talent to bring something so specific to life! I can never thank Rachel enough for her beautiful work. I’ll forever remember the gorgeous flowers on the best day!
I highly recommend the Viburnum team for your wedding day. Not only is their work absolutely beautiful, but they are a great team to work with. With flowers especially, I wanted to trust the experts. I gave Rachel pictures of things I liked for every aspect of the wedding and she was really able to take my inspiration and run with it. Everything day of was better than I could have imagined. Her and the entire team were amazing to work with. Between changing dates due to covid, last minute detail changes and overall guidance and advice, Viburnum was incredible. They brought our vision to life and were amazing to work with while ding so
I was beyond happy with my experience with Rachel and Viburnum. They executed my vision exactly as I hoped and all of the flowers were stunning. It was the best feeling walking into my ballroom and seeing all of the centerpieces perfectly arranged. I would definitely recommend to other brides!
For what I paid, I was left really unhappy with what Viburnum delivered. The utmost disappointment was my Lily of the Valley bouquet which came out nothing like the inspiration images and was stuffed full of florists foam. I was so embarrassed by it, I actually skipped the bouquet toss entirely. Second worst were the bridesmaids' bouquets which ended up being my *third* choice of flower and looked like I made them myself (in a bad way). They also skimped on the greenery on the tables even though each table had about 6 whole flowers on it for that "fresh picked" vibe and they had plenty of my money to work with. Also, all of the boutennieres wilted before the reception had started and had to be thrown out. No partial refund was given even though it was requested. Hands down, the worst vendor at my wedding.
Rachel was wonderful to work with - she executed my vision perfectly! Due to the pandemic, we definitely overpaid for the flowers that we received, but Viburnum/Rachel was very accommodating with changes in delivery place and time. Definitely recommend Viburnum to all.
I can not say enough good things about my experience with Viburnum Designs and Rachel our day of coordinator! I was pretty specific with what I wanted for my wedding day and they pulled it off flawlessly. My ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception was all in the same location and they made sure everything looked beautiful. I truly walked into the exact scene that I had imagined for the decor. The one piece of feedback I would leave is that I didn't want tall candles on the tables (as I was nervous about people knocking them over) so we had decided on votive instead, and the day of the tall candles were actually on the table. Obviously it ended up being fine and they looked beautiful, but that was the only thing that was not absolutely what I expected and wanted! All of the bouquets were gorgeous and stayed that way the entire night, and we even took home some arrangement the next morning that were still beautiful! They are super responsive via email as well for busy brides! Love them!
Working with Rachel as our coordinator was a wonderful experience from start to finish. After showing her some of our inspiration images, creatively she knew exactly what we needed. The day of execution was perfect! She even went above and beyond to do last minute details when our ceremony location was changed. Thank you again for all your help!
I'll be honest, flowers were the one thing that as a bride, I was clueless about. But, when we booked our venue and photographer, both had worked with Viburnum Designs, so I knew I needed to add my name to the list.
When I first met with Rachel, my mom and I were impressed by her professionalism and helpfulness. Using photos from other weddings they had done at my venue (along with the photographer we had booked!), we were able to come up with ideas based on our color palette and taste. Rachel made suggestions that further personalized the experience (for example, we got married at brewery and beer was our theme, so she suggested adding hops to my husband's boutonniere, which he LOVED!)
Rachel and Steph worked within my budget by making suggestions that could save us some cash, while also using their expertise to ensure we didn't compromise the look and feel of our wedding.
As I write this, four weeks later to the day, people are still commenting on our flowers. The elegant and simple decor at the wedding and the personal flowers were ON POINT. The corsages, boutonnieres, and bouquets (especially MINE!) were INSANELY WELL-DONE. Everything was delivered on time and perfect. My bouquet is hanging just a few feet away from me, so I can keep it as long as possible!
I was blown away by our flowers, as were our wedding party, family, friends, and guests. I should also mention that since we are not local to Princeton, Rachel allowed us to work with her at their location in Mendham, closer to where my mom lives, which made my life ONE MILLION times easier!
Rachel and Stephanie went above and beyond to make our wedding so beautiful! The flowers were my favorite decor aspect of the entire day. From the very beginning, they were so flexible, organized and nice to work with. They helped make our vision a reality and went beyond what I imagined it would all look like. There were moments throughout the wedding planning process where I wasn’t sure of what I wanted but they were reassuring and accommodating to changes. Flowers hold such a special meaning to me and their team made it a dream come true. I am so happy we were able to work with Viburnum for our wedding day!
VIBURNUM DESIGNS MADE MY WEDDING DREAMS COME TRUE!! They took my vision and turned it into a dream for my wedding. It was truly the most amazing ballroom I've ever seen due to Rachel and her team. Working with Viburnum was so easy, fun, loving, special and more!!!
We had a situation where we were not planning on using a florist then had to a month or two out. Viburnum was wonderful at making sure that my flowers fit within my budget and talked me through ways to cut down on this unexpected cost.
The flowers were absolutely stunning. My bridal bouquet was exactly what I wanted and people commented on how beautiful they were.
I’m so happy I went with Viburnum!
Rachael was so easy to work with! As someone who worries about expressing a vision it was easy to get everything down. It was elegant and perfect. I am so happy we worked with them for our special day!
Rachel was such a pleasure to work with! From our first meeting to our wedding morning, she was cheerful, responsive, and beyond helpful - even going out of her way to make my life easier! She took my answers to her questions and brought my dream to life within a budget I was extremely pleased with. The flower displays she created really brought my entire venue together and I could not be more grateful for how perfectly she nailed it. I recommend her and this company without reservation!
My husband and I worked with Rachel for our wedding back in September of 2018. She listened to our ideas and focused-in quickly with suggestions that were PERFECT for us (both aesthetically and economically). Rachel was very attentive, easy to get a hold of, and made sure to make sure we were happy with everything the day of the wedding (which we were). No detail is left unnoticed. Highly recommend!
We worked with Rachel at Viburnum and she was absolutely outstanding. She was able to take my half formed ideas and turn them into a stunning event.
She was conscious of our budget and suggested ideas that were beautiful and cost effective. She ensured that regardless of all the opinions in the room my and my now husband's voices were heard.
She beautifully executed our flowers on the day of the event- our Chuppah was especially wonderful.
I would highly recommend Viburnum!
We worked Viburnam for flowers for the rehearsal dinner and wedding as well as Rachel as our day of coordinator. They were absolutely amazing from start to finish. Accommodating, flexible, organized and took all of the pressure off of myself (the bride) and the family to focus on the day! for anyone getting married i'd recommend a day of coordinator and Rachel and her team just nailed every detail. Couldn't recommend her and Viburnam highly enough.
Excellent. They were super helpful in the process and the flowers were great. Very willing to work in our budget and were timely on the day. 100% recommended.
I worked with Rachel for the bouquets and boutonnieres for my wedding in August 2018 and I cannot recommend her highly enough. I had a very clear vision of what I wanted my bouquet to look like, and Rachel really listened to what I wanted and double checked to make sure she understood—it was so easy to work with her. On my wedding day, the bouquet of my dreams arrived and I never wanted to put it down! Everything else was exquisite as well—my bridesmaids' bouquets, the boutonnieres, the flower crowns for the flower girls—it was all just as I had imagined it. The flowers held up beautifully in the summer heat, and I literally ended the night at a bar with my new husband and my bouquet still in my hand—that is how much I loved it.
I would 100% recommend Viburnum Designs. Rachel and her team were FLAWLESS. From the initial meeting, Rachel was able to understand our style/vision and make it come to life. Everything looked absolutely stunning, and Rachel was a pleasure to work with. You will NOT go wrong here!
I would highly recommend Viburnum! Rachel was a pleasure to work with; she helped me form my vision and was really flexible/accommodating with any suggestions I came up with throughout the process. I felt comfortable asking her questions and could trust she would give me an honest opinion. She also worked within my budget with zero judgements expressed and produced a spectacular result. The room looked beautiful!
Rachel and the Viburnum Designs team did a fantastic job on the flowers for our wedding! She took the notes I gave during our sample session really well and totally executed my vision on the big day. Everything was delivered on time and in great condition. We had no issues at all--love this florist! Plus their shop is adorable and a joy to explore during every visit.
WOW! Loved working with Rachel - from our first conversation I know she “got” our vision! Viburnum truly transformed our ballroom and it was magical! I cannot recommend them enough!
I loved working with Rachel for my wedding day! She took the time to understand my vision from start to finish and had so many great recommendations. She truly understood the winter black tie look that I imagined! Rachel was a pleasure to work with and I'm so happy I chose her for my wedding day.
Rachel at Viburnum was absolutely amazing to work with. She was open to all ideas and really took time to understand what vision I was picturing for my wedding day. We worked through all of the visions together and she was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about her products. Our wedding day was absolutely beautiful and everything Rachel described, she delivered! For a girl who doesn't love florals, she managed to create a beautiful tablescape, bouquets, and boutineers, all including the greenery, succulents and delicate colors I was visioning!
Thank you Rachel!
We worked with Rachel at Viburnum and we could not be happier with how all our flowers looked! Rachel is so easy to work with and so much fun! You can really tell she loves her work and it shows in her designs! She is so creative and came up with the greatest ideas - one of my favorites was how our escort cards were displayed on little gold pumpkins! It was such a cute touch for our fall wedding. My bridal bouquet was so elegant it was definitely a highlight and got a lot of compliments throughout the day! We also had a Chuppah for our ceremony that Rachel designed from white birch with beautiful flowing flowers that really created a lovely space for our ceremony. Our entire experience with Rachel was great and we had a blast!
We chose Viburnum as our florist for our October 1st 2017 wedding. We worked with Claire; she was absolutely wonderful! I do not have a lot of knowledge regarding flowers, seasonal or otherwise. Claire was upfront with us about what was possible within our budget and created the most beautiful arrangements imaginable. She suggested us lots of options and sent us pictures of the bouquets. (We live in a different state, so meeting in person was difficult.) Overall, a fantastic, honest business that I would love to work with again.
Perfection in an understatement! We used Viburnum for our wedding in September and Rachel and the entire staff was absolutely incredible! Not only are they extremely responsive, organized, and helpful which is important when planning a wedding but they took our vision and created it better than we could have ever imaged. Every detail from the flowers to decor pieces was BEAUTIFUL. Rachel is passionate and has a creative eye like no other! We will definitely be using them for future events.
Cannot say enough good things about my experience w/ Rachel & Viburnum. We were referred to them by a friend who loved their shop, and was impressed from the beginning. I had shopped around at a few other florists, and had a pretty specific aesthetic in mind. Once I met with Rachel it was an instant click and she totally understood what I wanted. It was a definite yes from there on out! We had a big vision with a floral hoop hanging from the ceiling of the event space; there was a slight hiccup a few days prior to the wedding where there were challenges on getting the hoop to hang securely; this was definitely not something I was happy about at the time as it was 2 days prior to the event & had lots of other things to worry about. I had a conversation w/ Rachel and she was professional and advised they'd figure it out - which they did & everything looked beautiful the day of. Couldn't have been happier with the bouquet, centerpieces, and the floral hoop!
Thank you to everyone at the viburnum team for making it all come together!
Viburnum was recommended to us by our venue, which worked perfectly because they had an understanding of the space and what was possible there so that they could advise us and lead us in our decision making.
The created the most beautiful flower arrangements for us and designed our table settings to perfectly fit with our romantic, whimsical theme.
I definitely recommend Viburnum if you're in the Princeton area!
Rachel was absolutely amazing. She took my vision and created a scene that was truly magical. Everything was perfect from the flowers, the center pieces, the lanterns for the ceremony, and the cake design!! I can't thank Viburnum enough. Truly made our wedding perfect!!!
I must say I was very disappointed with Viburnum. When I first met Rachel, we immediately gelled and I thought she had captured my vision for the wedding. However, after our first meeting, she was difficult to get in touch with and when we met in person thereafter she seemed very rushed. Her proposal also wasn't very detailed and had many errors, which I had to correct. When I went in to view a sample of my centerpiece (bride's bouquet wasn't included to my disappointment), it wasn't anything like I envisioned. Despite revisions, I felt I had to compromise in order to stay within budget. We ended up going over and had I known that my expectations and vision weren't conveyed earlier, I would have looked for a different florist. Although the pieces were ultimately very nice and I had no problems with delivery, they definitely weren't worth the price.
Working with Rachel was amazing. From the first day, walking into the studio space, I fell in love with what she showed me. Not only was I able to voice what I was looking for and able to change things as I went along, we were always in communication. I was able to add personal touches with ease and the prices are great to work with. I highly recommend this florist.
Beautiful, unusual, creative and surprising floral designs that can't be surpassed! Never disappointed.
I cannot say enough about Ashling and her team at Viburnum. From the moment that we started planning our wedding, Ashling had so many fantastic ideas and right away understood the look that we were going for. Throughout the entire process her and her team were incredibly professional, accommodating, and creative. I knew that they were going to make our wedding absolutely incredible.
Our wedding day was hands down the best day of our lives and Viburnum played a very large role in that and truly made it possible! From the chuppa in the ceremony, to the unique bouquets, to the gorgeous center pieces, Ashling and her team transformed our venue from just an estate to the most beautiful and magical place that we could have ever dreamed of.
The entire Viburnum team was a pleasure to work with and they surpassed our expectations in ever way imaginable (which says a lot because our expectations were very high)! I would highly recommend Viburnum to any couple or to anyone just looking for beautiful flowers!!!!
Perfection at its finest!! Rachel was professional, listened to our ideas, and created a setting that was not only beautiful, but elegant and warm. It was everything we wanted and more! The bouquets were beautiful, and the room was magnificent! I would not hesitate to use them again!! Thank you!!
We used Viburnum for our wedding at the end of May 2015. We first met with Viburnum in January and laid out our entire order. They knew what we were looking for immediately and it was a quick and easy meeting.
We had one small snafu with a corsage the day of the wedding but they were able to correct the issue quickly before the ceremony so we were very happy.
Everything was gorgeous and the price was reasonable!
Viburnum Designs did phenomenal work for my July 2015 wedding. We worked with Claire and she was always personable and helpful, and had a great vision for what we were looking for. I didn't expect to fall in love with my bouquet, but I regretted not planning ahead to preserve my flowers when I saw how beautiful they were. I couldn't bare to throw them out, so I dried them myself. Our floating candle centerpieces were simple, yet stunning. I definitely recommend using this company for your floral needs.
Everyone is still taking about the beautiful flowers from Viburnum. I can't even explain how excited we were to see the table arrangements. The bouquets were absolutely gorgeous! Most importantly Claire listened to what my daughter wanted and the flowers reflected my daughters wishes. My daughters bouquet was the most beautiful wedding bouquet I have ever seen!
Rachel did an amazing job with my flowers for my wedding from the bouquets to the center pieces. Everything was exactly what I wanted and absolutely beautiful. She understood my vision from the beginning and was a pleasure to work with.
I used Viburnum for both my wedding in May and my reception in October. It was the best planning decision I made! Rachel did an amazing job bringing my vision to life. At the end of the night my guests had taken all my centerpieces home because they were so beautiful! I would and will recommend Viburnum to all my friends and family!
Viburnum was an absolute pleasure to work with for my wedding at Ashford Estate. They had the whole place decorated in timely fashion and the attention to detail on the centerpieces was amazing. We met a few times to go over my vision of whimsical/romantic flowers and the team totally nailed the look. I wanted bright, airy flowers that were a deeper purple for my bouquet and lighter for my bridesmaids and they came out stunning. I would hire them again for any event that I do!
Working with Rachel at Viburnum was one of the easiest aspects of wedding planning! The flowers came out more perfect than I could have imagined. Rachel is very talented at taking an idea/feeling you want to convey and making it a reality. I wanted something soft and romantic, organic but not too rustic, and incorporated multiple pinks/pastels with varied greenery, but didn't wind up looking too busy. She managed to do all of this and more, could not have been happier! I was so happy with my bouquet that I never wanted to put it down. If I could give them more stars I would!
We worked with Rachel to prepare for our wedding in Hamilton, NJ, and from the start we were very happy with Rachel and Vibernum's level of service. Rachel put together a wonderful design that met all of our objectives. During the planning phases, Rachel was very attentive to our every need. She would always find time to speak with us about our project. Rachel's transparency and direct feedback was very useful, as this was the first time we had used a florist for an event. On the big day, the floral arrangements looked absolutely stunning - from the center pieces to the rose petals elegantly strewn down the aisle. Rachel even helped during the ceremony, showing her commitment to getting the big day just right. We are very grateful to Rachel and Vibernum for the excellent work, and highly recommend them.
I cannot say enough positive remarks about my experience with Viburnum. From the very first time I went for a consult with Rachel to the very last drink of champagne at the wedding, I felt like Viburnum and the staff (especially Rachel) worked to ensure that our vision was a reality- a perfectly executed reality.
I went with a specific dream in mind that I wanted brought to life (but I had no idea how it would be possible). I wanted all peonies, a champagne bar, cigar bar, a lounge and signage to be very personal to the day. I constantly emailed Rachel, and she was extremely responsive within 24 hours, kind, and never made me feel like I was a bother. I cannot believe how perfect it all was loved working with Rachel so much, and trusted her so much that she knew to rearrange my bouquet the day of to match a picture I had shown her earlier.. I kept staring at my bouquet and telling everyone "it is exactly what I wanted" because it was.
We enjoyed Rachel and Viburnum so much that we asked her to stay on site for the wedding to make sure that the atmosphere and design remained the same throughout the whole night. The cigar bar, the lounge...everything. I seriously still can't believe how beautiful the flowers were.
My husband and I have received many notes and calls to comment on how beautiful the affair was down the last detail, this is all because of Rachel and Viburnum.
I loved Viburnum! They did the floral arrangements for my wedding on 6/6/15 at Princeton University. I had a very tight budget, but Viburnum worked with me to produce arrangements I could both afford and love! Instead of adding extra cost to have flowers both at my ceremony and reception, Viburnum suggested that flowers from my ceremony be moved to the reception venue. They worked with me throughout the entire planning process and were incredibly responsive and professional. They were a little more expensive than some of the florists I looked into, but Viburnum absolutely makes up for it through their craft and quality of service. I knew I was in good hands. From one bride to another, I would recommend Viburnum! You won't regret it!
I never thought that Viburnum would be in our budget but Rachel and her team worked with us to create a warm, romantic wedding just like we wanted. They not only do flowers but really can transform entire spaces with uplighting, draping, candles, and other various rentals. I had complete trust in them and they delivered 100%. I cannot recommend them enough!
I must say that Claire was a excellent listener and everything was exactly as I dreamt it would be. We had a small venue of 48 guests The creations were put together beautifully. Also I got my table linens through them and they gave me beautiful choices. I'm a Interior Designer by trade and I must say they are excellent and Claire was wonderful to work with. Very creative along with a great staff. I would recommend them highly Our wedding was beautiful and the flowers and urns that they did for us tied everything together
Viburnum does high quality creative work and we were so pleased with the overall look of our centerpieces, bouquets, etc. Very helpful throughout the planning process and onsite. Thank you Viburnum!
The moment I viewed floral arrangements and ceremony and reception photos on their website I knew Viburnum Designs was the flower company I wanted to work with on my wedding day. Their ability to bring your wedding day vision to reality seems almost effortless. They are much more than just a flower shop. They are a full scale design center that works with you every step of the way to carefully orchestrate the look and feel of your wedding or event, keeping in mind whatever budget limitations you may have. I felt confident and trusted in them from day one to make our wedding day everything we hoped it would be..and turned out absolutely fabulous and one of a kind!
The team at Viburnum Designs did a wonderful job providing flowers for my wedding! The bouquets were gorgeous! They also did a great job with the centerpieces and ceremony decor. Viburnum worked closely with us throughout our year of planning. They were very flexible and were open to changes as my vision changed throughout the year of planning. We received numerous compliments on our flowers. I would highly recommend them!
I was beyond grateful and impressed with what Rachel and the Viburnum team accomplished with my wedding. The first time I stepped in the their shop to have my consult, I knew I was in the right place. Not just a normal florist but a world of creative design. When I sat down with Rachel, and after a short time of talking, she understood everything I wanted in my vintage/masculine wedding. I felt complete trust that she would not only get the job done but with impeccable taste. I gave them very limited time to pull off my vineyard wedding (2 1/2 months). Not only did she pull off my request of renting Victorian furniture, bringing in antique doors, creating a canopy, incorporating hundreds of little antiques I purchased; I never heard once a "maybe" or "we cant do that". Everything I wanted they provided. Some of the reactions I received from my guests were, "The most beautiful wedding I ever been to." "I feel like I'm in a fairytale movie." "This wedding is so different, I never been to a wedding like this before." Viburnum played a huge part in working with such a beautiful backdrop of the vineyard. My advice to anyone reading this review, is you would be cheating yourself if you didn't use Viburnum. As a bride, the best thing I could of done was let go of a little control and let them do what they do best, which is create and design. -Elisabeth R.
Claire did a great job! It was so easy to work with her and she was always super responsive via email. I had asked her to help with setting up the tables and gave her a picture of the look I was going for and when first walked into the reception hall, it was just beautiful-exactly what I had envisioned. The flowers were reasonably priced given how expensive flowers are and they didn't seem to wilt. Thanks for everything and I highly recommend them!
Ashling and Claire are true wedding artists. Each time they work with flowers for a wedding (or virtually any occasion), they create a masterpiece! Each and every flower is carefully chosen for its quality, color and appropriateness for the occasion. Ashling offers advice with all aspects of the wedding "styling" from the color of the linens to the placement of rose petals down the aisle. You will not find a more attentive, artistic and creative group to work with ANYWHERE. USE THEM...YOU WILL BE SO HAPPY YOU DID! A very happy mother of the bride!
The girls at Viburnum are fabulous and have great visions. Not only did they create my dream floral decor, they also are a one stop shop for the perfect linens and furniture rentals. Everything from the bouquets to the blooms on my cake to the iridescent linens for the cocktail hour were perfect. Rachel and Claire are more than just awesome florists - they become great friends who understand your vision. Don't go to anybody else in NJ!
It was so easy and wonderful to work with Viburnum Designs for my wedding flowers. They have a beautiful store front, professional and easy to work with staff - Claire was great!, and absolutely reliable service. The flowers were beautiful, arrived exactly when they needed to, and they were even able to get me the peonies even though it wasn't the right season. Can't thank them enough!
Viburnum was great. Rachel and Claire were really nice and personable. And they knew exactly what I was going for. I wanted romantic but not rustic and elegant but not too formal. I was able to trust them to give me the look I wanted with just minimal direction on color and feel. The result was absolutely beautiful and right on point. I highly recommend.
I gave Viburnum Designs the challenge of creating an elegant Hawaiian theme in a historic house for my wedding. They delivered beyond what I could imagine! We and our guests were delighted to see flower specimens that we have never seen before—the most beautiful, vibrant tropicals in the world! Gorgeous leis were created for all of the guests, and special ceremonial leis were designed as well as a luscious cascade bouquet and a comb of flowers for my hair. Stunning ceiling-height environmental pieces were staged in our space to give the feeling of being in the tropics in an artful way. A circular banister that surrounded our dance space was decked with garlands of tropical greenery and flowers—simply stunning! Thank you to a wonderful floral design team for your excellent work! Cyndy Jost
Viburnum was absolutely wonderful for our 15 June 2014 wedding. Working with Rachel and Claire was so easy...they were able to take my abstract ideas and bring our vision to life. Their enthusiasm for our color choices (Emerald green was a focus) was infectious, and they were an all-service business. They delivered all the flowers and even moved the ones from the Chapel to our cocktail/reception location. The flowers were simply gorgeous and actually lasted over a week after the ceremony and reception. It was so fun to be able to have them for longer than just the day. I would recommend anyone getting married in the Northern/Central New Jersey area go visit with them.
Virburnum did an incredible job designing the flowers for my wedding. We used them for both the rehearsal dinner and ceremony/reception. Claire and Rachel were both amazing to work with, were very knowledgeable about the flowers that would be available in October, and were able to incorporate all of my ideas into the floral decor. When searching for a florist for the wedding, I found that many florists were difficult to understand and had a hard time understanding and incorporating what I wanted into the design. Claire and Rachel always knew exactly what I was looking for and I absolutely loved the final product. Everything was so much more beautiful than I imagined it would be and they were able to incorporate the exact hues I wanted into the bouquets.
Viburnum was extremely professional to work with, was flexible, and worked with me to get pricing on special items. We had multiple locations throughout the weekend where flowers needed to be delivered for certain members of the wedding party and Claire made sure each floral arrangement was delivered to the correct location at the intended time. During the long break between my ceremony and reception, Viburnum took the two large ceremony arrangements back to their store for refrigeration and later delivered them to the reception venue. Additionally, Claire took a lot of time to make sure the reception venue floral and pumpkin decorations were meticulously arranged, both around the venue and on and around the wedding cake.
I would absolutely recommend using Viburnum and hope to have the opportunity to use them again in the future.
We had so much fun working with Rachel and everyone at Viburnum. We gave them a tough task--an outdoor wedding in November in Central New Jersey. They were willing to tackle any task we gave them. They understood our vision and made suggestions not only about the flowers, but also about how to improve the entire wedding and reception. We highly recommend them!
Working with professionals like Claire and Rachel just made the flowers so easy for me... one less thing to worry about. Their style and vision PERFECTLY matched my own, so when I walked into the shop I really thought it was too good to be true (and too expensive for my meager budget!) I was so surprised by their unbelievable flexibility and willingness to work with me on every aspect, that (once again) I knew I had found my vendor on first meeting. They were patient and rolled with all my last minute decisions and changes, which were important to me. I was extremely impressed the day of the wedding at the smooth set up and perfectly manifested vision... when I walked around after the ceremony I noticed all the little details we had discussed which they had pulled off perfectly. I would recommend them to anyone, but especially if you have that "rustic" "woodsy" and "moss and sticks" style, which I do. I would not dare limit them to that, because I think they would pull off classic flowers just as well, but it had to be mentioned because I do not believe your old-school run-of-the-mill florists would get it. Ultimately, just a great experience working with them.
As someone who doesn't know much about flowers, I trusted the aesthetic judgment of Ashling, Claire, & the Viburnum team for my wedding this past weekend (9/1/13). And they came through beautifully! They were able to intuit exactly what I wanted, even though I couldn't figure it our myself. They're also extremely flexible: I provided vases that I had borrowed from my recently married friend, and they worked with me to create a design with the vases I provided and within the budget I specified. And when we changed the color of the bridesmaids' dresses and needed to change their bouquets, they didn't blink an eye. When the number of tables changed at the last minute? Not a problem.
If you're checking out florists, definitely consider Viburnum. At the very least, meet with Ashling & Claire! They're extremely friendly, extremely flexible, and they seemed to know what I wanted even though I couldn't articulate it myself! Strongly recommend.
Wedding day is the most stressful day for bride and groom and it was for us too but if you have vendor like Viburnum then you are in a good hand. Ask me why? They are the best because....
1) They listen to you
2) They have the super power to see what you really want
3) They are very creative
4) They work with you on your budget
5) They do more than what they promise. Ex: They decorate bridal suite with petals and candles for free.
6) They did not treat you as a customer; they treat you as a friend
7) You don't have to worry a single thing on their decoration
8) They are always on time on wedding day to setup stage
9) They work with you for backup plan if the weather goes bad. Ex: We had rain on our wedding day but they executed the backup plan perfectly
10) They are simply the nicest people in earth who believe more than you that it is the most important day for you
I would strongly recommend setting an appointment with them to see what they can offer you. I am very much satisfied with their services and without any 2nd thought I will always refer viburnum. Look for Rachel; she made my wedding the most memorable day of my life.
I'm so glad I chose Vibernum Designs to create the floral design for our wedding day. I very much enjoyed working with Claire. She provided great insight into things I might want to consider and was able to convert my sometimes vague ideas into floral designs that I adored. The bouquets were beautiful as were the table pieces and assorted other elements of our day. Our ceremony was outside and the ivory aisle runner with purple petals was romantic and magical! Thank you Claire and Vibernum for your dedication, service and experience.
As you'll see from Viburnum's beautiful website, they offer a very unique variety of flowers. Since this was a second wedding for us, and we are in our late 40's, we wanted to keep things simple, elegant, and reasonably priced, but with a little extra style/touch/flare that I knew Viburnum could provide. Rachel and Claire at Viburnum were very good listeners, especially regarding what I wanted my bouquet to look like. Once we talked budget, they never pushed for me to try to go over that; they were as concerned about staying at my number as I was! As spring approached, they updated me on what types of flowers would be available in June. The flowers showed up at our celebration right on time--and there was Claire with a big smile to set it all up "just right."
Even if you aren't sure of what you want, go to Viburnum and talk to the team there. Claire will pull out her iPad and you'll start looking at photos of bouquets, arrangments and flowers--some flowers you might not have ever heard about! Some of the flowers are expensive, so be careful and honest. With the Viburnum team's help, you will find what you like and won't be disappointed with the experience or results.
Viburnum Designs handled the flowers for my wedding on July 20, 2013, and they did an absolutely incredible job. Ashling and Claire were a delight to work with. When Ashling and I met for our consultations, it was so clear that her goal was to accomplish my vision for the wedding, and she did that. Ashling and Claire made communication so easy, and from just two meetings and many pictures emailed, they NAILED the look I was going for. When Ashling dropped the flowers off at my house the morning of the wedding, I was blown away by how beautiful and perfect they were. All of the girls loved their bouquets. The church and the reception venue were breathtaking. Ashling and Claire made gorgeous arrangements, chose perfect vases and candles, and helped us arrange linen rentals. They took care of EVERYTHING, and the result was beyond what I could have imagined.
We used Viburnum Designs for our daughter's wedding in June (2013). They were fabulous. Their artistry is outstanding, and equally important, they are very responsive. They listened carefully to us and gave us exactly what we wanted. We couldn't have been happier with the flowers at the wedding; they were exquisite! Our guests gave us many, many compliments, and at the end of the day, they were asking if there were more centerpieces they could take home (none were left!). As far as a budget, they were clear and accurate up front, so there were no surprises. The staff was a pleasure to work with, and above all, they produced gorgeous results.
Viburnum did my flowers for my wedding this summer and they were gorgeous!
We loved, loved, loved everything! Our guests were gushing about our magnificent chuppah and gorgeous table arrangements. The bouquets and corsages were the prettiest I've ever seen.
It was a joy to work with Claire, Ashling, and the Viburnum team, they did an amazing job making sure that the wedding was beautiful and that everything was perfectly taken care of, we didn't have to worry about a thing.
Viburnum did my wedding flowers, which were absolutely beautiful. We received many compliments on the reception flowers, in particular. The service could be a little better in terms of responsiveness throughout the process, but everything turned out well.
Claire was absolutely wonderful. She took the time to listen to what I was looking for. She showed me some ideas and flowers that would work for what I wanted. The day of the wedding my bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages were all labeled and beautifully displayed in my bridal suite.
We LOVED our flowers. Everyone loved the flowers. Jessica was a beautiful bride and her bouquet added to her stunning look. The day was a complete success and ALL of our complements included the gorgeous flowers.
Ashling and Claire were wonderful to work with. Ashling promised she would create centerpieces that we would love, and in budget. And she did. From the time we walked in the door for information, Ashling and Claire were welcoming. Ashling knew the church, the venue, and what would work with the color theme. She helped Jessica determine what she wanted for her bouquet and it was perfect! She is creative, has expert knowledge, and a keen sense of “reading” the bride.
Claire handled the details expertly. A large bridal party had beautiful bouquets and boutonnieres and the pomander ball for the flower girl was a standout item.
The church flowers were lovely- and different- and the reception centerpieces gave the room a glow and finish without overwhelming the tables. Five months later, we still talk about how happy we are we chose Viburnum.
We would absolutely recommend Viburnum Designs to anyone and everyone. They will create and deliver as promised, and memorably so.
Viburnum Designs did an amazing job with the flowers for my wedding at Jasna Polana. Claire was very professional in dealing with the logistics of the entire process and Ashling worked her magic (and true talent!) to make my floral vision come true for our big day. I was very picky with the design of our branch centerpiece but Ashling and Claire were patient enough to listen to all my detailed requests and even sent me a second demo photo to get it "absolutely" right. That was a huge relief! On the day of, everything went smoothly (they were familiar with our venue) and most importantly, the flowers were so tastefully done, they look gorgeous in all of our photos and video. They helped us stay within our budget too. We would definitely recommend them!
