Jocelyn came recommended from our day-of wedding coordinator, and out of all the decisions that I made during the wedding planning process, hiring her (and her team) was probably one of, if not the best, decision that I made! The floral decorations were really important to me, and Jocelyn brought all of my dreams to life! She did an amazing job of understanding what I was asking for (even when I sometimes wasn't quite sure), as well as providing clear planning documents and email explanations. I also had the pleasure of meeting Jocelyn in person (at a local Starbucks to review final details), and in addition to being an amazing florist, she is also a lovely person :) Fingers crossed that I won't ever need her wedding services again, but I intend on going back to 1703 Studios when an other need for flowers strikes!

I don't know the first thing about flowers and it was the thing I put off planning the longest, but Jocelyn made the whole process so easy. I described the colors, style, look & feel of what we were going for and she put together a style guide that identified a color palette, size/types of floral arrangements and the vases she recommended. From there it was easy to respond to and I felt comfortable that she understood my vision, even if I didn't have the floral vocabulary to describe it up front. Her detailed invoice line-itemed each and every arrangement, so we knew the exact cost and placement of each piece. No surprises. No sticker shock. (Very reasonable, too!) The results were gorgeous. Every detail was just as planned, from the elegant table centerpieces, to the floral design for the chuppah, to the creative use of greenery to camouflage the outdoor misting fans. Jocelyn's passion for what she does and her eye for style really shine through.

Jocelyn at 1703 Event Studios deserves all 5 stars (and then some) in every category. She was the most important vendor that we hired for our wedding. Her service and responsiveness was above and beyond expectations, day-of coordination was like a magic trick - she was in so many places at one time, and her ability to ease our nerves before the wedding is a truly unique trait. She is well organized, communicative, calming, experienced, and has a memory for details that is quite unbelievable.

We also hired Jocelyn to do our centerpieces and florals. The bouquets exceeded anything I ever imagined, and embodied the romantic and whimsical feel of our wedding. Jocelyn knew us so well that she took some liberties to add some more florals to our cake and other areas of the ceremony, and nailed it! Most importantly, Jocelyn worked within our budget and was able to create florals and centerpieces that were a topic of conversation among our wedding guests.

As I write this review a month after the wedding, our families are still raving about Jocelyn. They were so impressed with her work, as we are as well, and we all wish her the best as she continues to thrive and succeed in her wedding planning business.
