Willow Floral was great in the end, though an ownership change mid-planning, being handed off to multiple people throughout the process, and increases in contracted prices with the previous owners proved to be challenging. However, once we got in touch with Andreya, she was great. She worked with us to decrease the price increases, me feel calm and confident in Willow Floral again and although there were some last-minute tweaks needed, she was so passionate about our event and the florals were absolutely stunning. If you can, definitely work with Andreya from the start.
The flowers for my wedding looked absolutely amazing. It was such a breeze to work with Jessica and her team. My bouquet and my bridesmaids bouquets were exactly what I pictured when I sent inspiration. The boutonnières looked so good on all the guys. The arrangement for the guest book table was gorgeous, so much so my girlfriend asked if she could take it home.
Willow Floral Design did the most beautiful flowers and floral arrangements for our wedding. They were exactly what I had envisioned and Jessica helped me throughout the whole process by asking the right questions and sending over pictures for inspiration for me to choose from and the result was 100% what I had imagined and hoped for! Centerpieces, ceremony arch, bouquets, everything was so pretty. I would hire them again in an instant and definitely recommend!
My point of contact for my wedding bouquets and boutonnières was Jessica. She was an absolute gem to work with!
We started with an inquiry, which led to a phone call that created a quote/contract, and then even after then she was always available for changes and questions. I ordered a bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, a groom's boutonniere, groomsmen boutonnières, and garland centerpieces for my tables.
Everything I ordered was absolute perfection! Jessica arrived on time, set everything up, and I was just surprised to walk out and see it all exactly as I had envisioned. The floral and greenery were fresh, beautifully blended, and textured. Jessica is an artist. I could not have been any happier with her services.
We had a wonderful experience with Willow Floral design! They were great about starting the process early, checking in when needed, and creating a beautiful array of florals for our wedding! The set up was so flawless I didn’t even have to worry about a thing the whole day. The only reason it’s not a full 5 stars is somehow my hair piece got forgotten and the dads and officiant didn’t get their boutonnières. However they did a great job improvising a hair piece for me with the help of the hair stylist. And I do believe it was partly my husbands fault for not noticing that the boutonnières were in their getting ready room ( he denies this of course 😂 ) overall everything was so wonderful!
Elyse did a fantastic job with the flowers for our wedding! We started out not really knowing what we wanted, and Elyse patiently walked us through the process and made several mock up centerpieces in the months leading up to the wedding so that I could really envision and make sure we loved the flowers the day of. We ended up going with all white flowers and greenery with pops of blue thistle. She even pulled some strings to get some white peonies brought in in September which made me sooooo happy. On the day itself, our flowers were absolutely GORGEOUS. I was especially in love with my bouquet and wanted to take it on our honeymoon. We got tons of compliments on our flowers from guests and were so happy with them overall. Would definitely recommend Elyse - her skills are amazing. Only thing to note is that she has a lot of weddings so be patient with turnaround time on responding to emails, especially on weekends.
We could not have been happier with Willow Floral Design! Elyse was delightful to work with — so easy-going and kind — and the end result was gorgeous! We did eucalyptus garlands that were stunning and got rave reviews from our guests (as did the bouquets and flower crowns for the flower girls). Elyse worked with us to keep everything within budget and made it super easy on us. We can't recommend Willow enough!
We got married at Evergreen Lodge in Yosemite. Willow Floral Designs was on their vendor list, so we gave Elyse a call, and we were SO happy that we did! I had a phone conversation with Elyse before my (now) husband and I met her in person in Modesto. Through the phone conversations and meeting Elyse in person, we had a lot of confidence that our flowers were going to be amazing….and they were!! I didn’t realize how well she got my “vision” until the flowers arrived at Evergreen on my wedding day. They were beyond perfect. The colorfulness, the tastefulness, just everything. She had done a number of weddings at Evergreen, so she was able to make a lot of great suggestions as well. She decorated the arch that would be the centerpiece of the ceremony…and to say that it was amazing would be an understatement. Everything was AMAZING and we thank you so much Elyse!!!!
Elyse is not only lovely, wonderful and easy to work with, she is dedicated to what she does and talk about someone who knows their stuff! I enjoyed every correspondence I had with Elyse, not to mention the amazing work she did for our special day. I really liked that she immediately asked to see my Pinterest page! She did her research and made my vision a reality. Even with some flowers that were harder to find for the season we were in, she still made it happen and everything was absolutely gorgeous. The day of our wedding I didn't even see her or her crew. It was just as if everything magically appeared. She is great and I would highly recommend her for any potential event you have coming up.
I first met with Elyse over a year before our wedding date. I didn't really know where to start, other than bringing pictures of my ideas. I wanted to use whites, ivory and greens. Elyse was very great at explaining flowers and giving ideas. She was prompt on getting a quote back to me the next week. She is very reasonable in price for the services provided. They were excellent. I decided to book her and was so happy I did. About 6 months later I decided that I wanted to have colors in my flowers and Elyse was so flexible. She met with me again and we went for a whole new look. Up until the day of the wedding Elyse was so patient and flexible with me about any changes I wanted to make. The wedding was everything I could imagine and more. My guests made so many comments on how beautiful the flowers were. The best thing was on the day of the wedding, Willow Floral Design set up everything on time and exactly how we planned. One less thing to worry about on the big day :)
Where do I begin?! From the first meeting to our wedding day...Elyse and her team did a spectacular job! She was kind, easy to work with and listened to my vision (even when I changed it multiple times!) Willow floral design is so amazing and when I walked in to my wedding it took my breath away! It was so gorgeous and well put together...it was exactly as I imagined it to be and more! It surpassed my expectations. The flowers meant a lot to me and they were more than beautiful than I ever could've imagined. I received so many compliments on our wedding florals and overall design and I have Willow Floral Design to thank for that :)
I was absolutely over the moon about the flowers at my wedding last weekend! I am very indecisive and Elyse worked with me patiently to put together a color scheme and the right flowers for my woodsy Yosemite wedding. Even after telling me that ranunculus (one of my favorite flowers) were no longer in season, Elyse still managed to sneak a few into my bouquets. What a wonderful surprise! Everything was just absolutely gorgeous, which was such a relief to me since I had a really tough time picturing the flowers ahead of time. I am sure that once the professional photos are ready, my flowers will be floating around Pinterest--they were just that beautiful.
I also want to give Elyse kudos for her flexibility. We had quite an unusual time frame because of the nature of our destination wedding. She gladly assembled a second bouquet and boutonierre for us to use the Thursday before the wedding to take photos, as well as loose daisies for the rehearsal dinner. She drove over an hour to meet my stepfather halfway between Modesto and Yosemite to deliver these flowers. This was an incredible help to us. I cannot say enough good things. Elyse is top notch and her arrangements absolutely beautiful.
I dealt with Elyse over the phone and via email during the planning process because my weding was being held 4 hours north of my hometown. It wasn't the easiest way to get a hold of her as I sometimes waited over a week to hear back from her.
I'll admit I was a little biased because I work at a florist, but never let her know that. I had decided to use a florist near the venue, thinking it would be easier on the flowers. I did have a couple concerns during the planning and she seemed a little annoyed by them rather than willing to help find a resolution. I ended up just having to deal with price changes because of the requests I wanted.
I actually never even met Elyse. I also never saw any of my flowers until the day of the wedding, which drove me nuts! I wanted to see a sample of my ceterpiece, but didn't feel comfortable paying full price for it. So with hestitation, I decided to just trust her design skills. Thankfully, I was not disappointed!
My bouquet was bigger and more beautiful than I had imagined. I loved it so much I held it in almost every picture so that I couldn't forget it. My bridesmaids bouquets were pretty as well, but wilted pretty wuickly because of the delicate flowers I chose. The men's boutenniers didn't hold up too well either, and my groom's was dead by our first dance. Aside from that the centerpieces were gorgeous and complimented on throughout the night.
Overall I was satisfied with the flowers, and I wouldn't change them. The service, however, could have been better so I don't think I would neccesarily reccomend her.
Talk about A++ customer service... I met with quite a few florists before choosing Elyse and Willow Floral Design. She was over the top accommodating. She came to meet me near work for our first consultation. I immediately loved her. She was warm and kind and had many suggestions for me as I was not 100% sure on what I wanted. She told me about her history in the business and she was just so easy to talk to. Later in the process she met me at the place we were renting our linens from, so that she could help with the appropriate color scheme for our flowers. She not only had great customer service, but great prices as well. Some florists quoted me at almost twice her cost. We worked through email and a few meetings to coordinate the final contract and the day of details. She was always timely with her responses. The day of the wedding, Elyse and her team arrived at the venue as planned and proceeded to set up the flowers as we had discussed. The bouquets and boutonnieres were beautiful...exactly what I was hoping for. She also did my cake flowers, my ceremony arrangements and all the flowers for the cocktail and dinner tables. They were gorgeous! I received so many compliments on how beautiful the flowers were and absolutely loved them myself. I highly recommend Elyse and Willow Floral Design. They are outstanding.
For our October wedding all my husband and I were looking for was a florist to design the bouquets & boutonnieres along with a few other fresh flower arrangements like: flowers for hair, cake decorations and flower leis. We knew it would be difficult for us to find and coordinate with a florist near our venue in Northern California when we lived in Southern California, but we couldn't have asked for a more perfect florist than Elyse. She was so accommodating to us by working with my mother/wedding planner in person and responding to my emails so promptly. She was also so helpful in truly listening to what I was looking for in our arrangements and answering my many questions as well as recommending flowers that I knew nothing about to really make our tropical flowers theme really WOW and pop on our special day! She was also sensitive to and respectful of sticking to our budget and more than willing to make any changes we needed to help us stay within that budget as well as make our wedding arrangements everything we wanted them to be. Elyse and the Willow Floral Design team were everything we could have hoped for and more in a wedding florist and I would highly recommend their services to everyone getting married in the Central Valley/Modesto area!!
It was such a pleasure to work with Elyse at Williow Floral. From the moment we spoke on the phone, i knew i wanted her to do my flowers. She was extremely easy to work with, very responsive, honest, had great ideas and went above and beyond to make my wedding beautiful.
I wasn't sure of what type of flowers i wanted but Elyse was able to translate my vision and bring it to life - making it perfect.
Elyse also traveled a great distance for my wedding which was such a lifesaver for me. I was so appreciative that she was willing to do it! And, the travel fee was very very reasonable.
I highly recommend Willow Floral.
Elyse, the owner of Willow, is a pleasure to work with and helped make my vision for our wedding a reality. I'm not normally an emotional person, but I have to admit my eyes watered a bit when I saw how beautiful the tables looked-they were everything I imagined and more. Not only did the tables look beautiful, but the bouquets, boutineers, ceremony flowers and arch were perfect. if you're looking for a florist in the Bay Area, Willow Floral Design is hands down the best!
Working with Elyse was great! She was able to do everything I wanted within my budget and everything looked fantastic. She was very responsive to emails which was crucial since I was planning my Northern California wedding from my home in Dallas. She was very patient with me as I sometimes changed my mind on different flowers and wanted to add different elements. I would definitely recommend Willow Flower Design.
After interviewing 6 florists, I was thrilled to connect with Elyse, the owner of Willow Floral. She got my vision right away, and to top it off was willing to work within our budget to bring it to life. That being said, nothing could have prepared us for just how thrilled we were at the level of service and the arrangements Elyse created for our wedding. We were blown away, I wish there were words to her justice here. Our guests were blown away too. Even my husband's guy friends were complimenting us on our flowers!!! The bouquets were out of this world gorgeous... and they looked twice as expensive as they actual were. I can't say enough good things about Elyse and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dream Martha Stewart wedding (even those of you doing it on a moderate budget!). If I could give 6 stars here I would!
Out of all my top-notch wedding vendors, Elyse was the best. From our first phone call, I noticed her professionalism, organization and attention to detail. When I told her my relatively small budget, she didn't flinch and actually made all my requests a reality despite the budget limitation.
We exchanged many emails to discuss everything, and she took note of each little detail and minor change we made. I was truly impressed with her organization. She even made sure we had the right color for the ribbon on our bride and groom chairs during the wedding ceremony!
I live in NY but came to visit our wedding venue in St. Helena a couple months before the wedding. Elyse made it a point to drive 4 hours round-trip just to meet us for 1 hour so that she could familiarize herself with the venue and meet our coordinator. At that point, she even proactively suggested that one of the centerpiece arrangements we had chosen initially may not fit the setting; she suggested a different one that was perfect.
On the day of the wedding, I came out for pictures around 1:30 pm to find that she had set up everything without so much as a minor question for me. I loved that she was able to make the executive decisions on the day of and work with the venue to get everything done without needing to check with me. That is how professional and on top of things she is!
I am positive that you will not find a better florist in the Bay Area!
Elyse was wonderful to work with. She was very professional, organized, and helpful. The flowers were gorgeous!! I was blown away by my first look of the bouquets in the ladies lounge. She even offered to stay to help move our flowers from ceremony to reception and make sure everything was perfect. Elyse was able to create my vision for my special day. It was perfect and more than I could have asked for. I enjoyed working with her and would highly recommend Willow Floral Design!
Hands down Elyse Litt and Willow Floral are amazing to work with. The flowers for the my wedding were so beautiful and perfect. Elyse beautifully put my vision for my special day into reality. She is exceptional to work with and I will definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a florist.
Elyse and her team are tremendous. From start to finish working with her, I was blown away by her creativity, organization and professionalism. She is willing to go the extra mile and make sure the client is completely satisfied.
I recently got married in the Bay Area and used Willow Floral Design. EVERYTHING was perfect and the flowers were unbelievable. Everyone commented on how beautiful they were and made everything that much more uplifting. She was willing to travel, pick up the pots and flowers at midnight and worked flawlessly with the club and other vendors to achieve our dream wedding.
I would highly recommend using WFD on any small or large scale event again, knowing that it would end up being stunning.
