Colonial Florist was everything I could have wanted for our wedding florist. The process was quick and easy - she guided me through making all the right floral and arrangement choices. I gave a general idea and they delivered a gorgeous and lasting product that was highly complemented at the wedding. To top it off, it was affordable and they delivered everything promptly. I mean, the bouquets really speak for themselves. Highly recommend!Colonial Florist's reply:

Chelsea Sent on 01/12/2018Donna with Colonial Florist went above and beyond for my clients that got married last summer at James Monroe's Highland. Not only did she create beautiful designs for the personal wedding flowers, but she curated gorgeous, classic centerpieces that fit the style the clients wanted perfectly. She provided the rental decorations in addition to the blooms and greenery, and was so accommodating for retrieving the rentals after the event was over. Give Donna a call today to plan your wedding or event florals, you will be so glad you did!

Chelsea,
Thank you so much for the fantastic review! You were such a joy to work with! I wish you both all the happiness in the world! -

Wonderful Florist for a Wedding!
Working with Colonial Florist and Donna was a wonderful experience. We received exactly what we wanted including bouquets, boutonnieres, table greenery/flowers, small bud vases for the cocktail tables, extra flowers for the cake, and candles. Donna was responsive to my emails and phone calls. She spoke with us before we had picked a florist and described what she could do and would recommend. As we got closer to the wedding she was able to make adjustments to the number of table decorations and arrangements we needed and sent me an updated invoice each time. On the day of the wedding, they drove to Leesburg, VA (2 hours away!) to do all of the setup. They returned after the reception was over and cleaned/got their items. The long drive did not cost anything extra. Donna even put live flowers in my cake since my bakery was not able to. I was so happy with how all of the lovely flowers turned out and would recommend Colonial Florist to anyone in search of a wedding florist.Colonial Florist's reply:

Allison Sent on 09/10/2023Wonderful experience
We went with Colonial Florist for our wedding after reading all the reviews and were very pleased. Donna was very easy to work with and organized. We gave her our budget up front that I wanted to stay within and she had no problem making it work well - I was impressed with how much we were able to do for a very reasonable budget. She made discussing the goals easy and asked for reference photos for what we were thinking. The flowers turned out beautifully and everyone complimented them the whole night. Highly recommended!Colonial Florist's reply:

Narlyn M. Sent on 08/30/2023The fairy godmother everyone needs!!!
Donna took all my ideas and put together the most mesmerizing flowers and decor for our wedding day. She absolutely blew out all of my expectations and delivered what I can only described as the images of my dreams. There was a moment in the evening where my MOH pointed out certain table details and I am so happy she did that, for it caused me to really take in the masterpiece that Donna put together. The candles, flowers, centerpieces, variations of colors; it was all breathtaking. I truly have no words. Donna made everything seem so simple and effortless, seriously a true queen. If fairy godmothers were real, she would honestly be the closest thing to them.

Jamie W. Sent on 09/20/2023Absolutely incredible!
Donna at Colonial Florist was incredibly helpful, flexible, and accommodating. My husband built a custom beam on which we wanted a large garland of our wedding flowers. We sent the dimensions and a photo of the beam to Donna and the garland she made was a perfect fit and brought our vision to life. I made additions during the planning process and she was very accommodating. She even brought extra greenery and flowers and placed them perfectly to add extra warmth and color. Donna truly exceeded our expectations. I would not have entrusted my wedding flowers to any other florist and highly recommend Colonial Florist.Colonial Florist's reply:
Jamie, Thank you so much for this wonderful review! It was a pleasure working with you and I couldn't be happier that you were pleased with your flowers! Wishing you both many years of happiness together!! -

Absolutely beautiful
Donna and team did the flowers for my Charlottesville wedding in JUN 2023. The flowers turned out absolutely incredible. I had a smaller budget, but somehow the flowers looked exactly like the pictures I sent Donna from pintrest and other places. They were amazing to work with and I cant believe how beautiful they turned outColonial Florist's reply:

Colonial Florist & Antiques Brought my Vision to Life
Donna was amazing and helped my vision come to life for our wedding! She was affordable and extremely flexible by letting me change up the entire floral colors & selections last minute (not that I recommend you do that :) ). She communicated promptly and clearly and helped make the hectic process of planning go smoothly. I'd recommend Colonial Florist & Antiques a million times - the end result of our florals truly completed our wedding day vision!Colonial Florist's reply:
Nadia, Thank you so much for this wonderful review! It was a pleasure working with you and I am delighted you were happy! Wishing you both many years of happiness together!!

Donna and her team are amazing! Florals were not something I wanted to spend a ton of money on and Donna helped me create the perfect set-up/arrangement that was within my budget. She also was super kind, patient, and easy to communicate with! When the day came, I was in awe of how beautiful everything turned out. The bouquets were gorgeous and everything was decorated perfectly. Highly, highly recommend!Colonial Florist's reply:
Riley, Thank you so much for this wonderful review! I am delighted you were happy with your flowers!! Wishing you both the very best!

I can’t say enough good things about Donna and Colonial Florist! I absolutely loved working with her throughout the wedding planning process and highly recommend her for any floral needs! She is so kind, professional, accommodating and flexible. I made several changes while planning the wedding and Donna was amazing, she offered ideas and honest feedback and it was great to know she had our best interest at heart. I ended up getting my bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets, arbor arrangements, flowers for the cake, and vines on the indoor fireplace and everything was gorgeous. I received so many compliments on the flowers and I could not be happier with everything!Colonial Florist's reply:
Haley, Thank you for this wonderful review!! You were a pleasure to work with and I am delighted you loved your flowers and experience! Wishing you both many years of happiness together!! -

Aleena G. Sent on 09/25/2022My favorite vendor from my wedding!
Donna & team was AMAZING from the consultation all the way to wedding day. She was responsive, suggestive, and so easy to work with. Unfortunately I never got to meet her in person on the big day from all the craziness happening, but just from phone calls alone I knew I didn’t have to worry about choosing her as our florist. I am a bride that wasn’t too picky with my vision but had a general idea of what I wanted my flowers to look like and she hit it out of the park! I was so happy seeing the arrangements and got so many compliments. HIGHLY recommend. Thank you so much Donna!Colonial Florist's reply:
Oh Aleena, I am thrilled you were happy with everything!! Thank you so much for this wonderful review! It was a pleasure working with you and I wish you both many years of happiness!! -

Stunning flowers
GORGEOUS flowers and incredible vendor. We hired Donna for our wedding at the recommendation of our wedding planner. Donna was fabulous to work with and the results were amazing. She really listened to my vision of how I wanted the flowers to drape, the colors, the “vibe” (for me I wanted it to look like I had just picked the most beautiful bouquet of wildflowers and WOW she surpassed my vision) and even particular flowers I wanted in it. She also really worked with us to be respectful of our budget and had great suggestions like reusing bridesmaid bouquets and centerpieces to save money! Donna gave me a preview bouquet to look at and give feedback on months before the big day, which was great for envisioning and helping me pull everything together. As I said the results were incredible: from the boutonnières to the archway flowers to the bridesmaid and bridal bouquets, each detail was carefully done and I was so in love with the flowers day of. Donna is wonderful to work with and I highly recommend her!Colonial Florist's reply:
