We knew we didn’t want to spend a ridiculous amount of money on florals for the day of the wedding without sacrificing quality and creating something that added a little extra beauty to the day. When we first met with Elyse, we showed her inspiration pictures with the general vision of what we were looking for for florals. She listened and gave suggestions of what she thought would work the best for us and our venue. MPS has table decorations for rent too so besides the flowers, they also provided all the hurricane candles for the table centerpieces. Elyse was also able to use a bouquet wrap and pieces of my mom’s veil/headpiece from her wedding in my bouquet in such a beautiful way. The flowers also didn’t die for a while after the wedding was over once they were put back in water. Elyse was so easy to work with, helpful with any questions we had and responded quickly to any emails we sent.

I cannot say enough good things about Metropolitan Plant and Flower Exchange and Elyse. In planning for my wedding, I had no idea what type of flowers I wanted. I found photos on Pinterest of faux flower arrangements for my vision board and was told by several florists it was not possible to create the arrangements I wanted, but Elyse did not hesitate and said it was absolutely possible. I really left it to Elyse because I didn't know which flowers would look good together, were in season, or which flowers came in certain colors, etc. Elyse guided me throughout the entire process with patience and a great attitude. Not only that, I had last minute changes to my wedding party just a few weeks before the wedding and she was so flexible and accommodating. My flowers were absolutely incredible; better than I could have imagined (and even more beautiful than the Pinterest photos I had found!) The colors were so rich and the flowers were so fresh. I will absolutely be recommending her to anyone looking for a florist!

Elyse from Metropolitan Plant & Flower Exchange went above and beyond as our wedding florist. She created the most beautiful chuppah and personal bouquets for our big day. She was always responsive and extremely professional - she guided us every step of the way to ensure our vision came to life. Highly recommend working with her - you will not regret it!
