Michael N. Sent on 07/12/2024Thank you Elegance & Simplicity!!!
Katie and Miguel from Elegance and Simplicity exceeded all our expectations with their floral arrangements and wedding design. The flowers were stunning, and Katie helped us capture the essence of our vision. On the day of the wedding, Miguel and Chrishaun were on-site to efficiently manage the setup and breakdown of all decorations. Chrishaun, our day-of coordinator, was an absolute gem. She was always available to assist us. Chrishaun helped to draft a detailed timeline, provided great ideas for our rehearsal, and executed everything flawlessly on our wedding day. Her dedication ensured that our day flowed seamlessly, and we couldn't be more grateful. Thank you, Elegance and Simplicity, for making our wedding day truly beautiful and everything we imagined it to be. -

Anne Sent on 07/13/2018Elegance and simplicity was recommended by our venue, Woodend Sanctuary, for their stunning bistro lighting service, which looked absolutely amazing and made so much of a difference in the photos and general ambiance. Pretty late in the game, we also contacted them to rent our wedding arch, and they were incredibly accommodating in getting the arch to us, even though they had other deliveries booked that day. Their rentals were beautiful and they were so professional. Highly recommended! -

Beautiful flowers and amazing experience!
Katie was amazing to work with. Right from the start, she understood our vision. We had a smaller budget to work with, and she was very helpful in determining what we could include while being mindful of the budget. The flowers themselves were stunning. I got so many compliments on the bouquet. The additional ceremony decor and centerpieces were also lovely. She was professional and easy to work with. Would highly recommend! -

6/23/23 Wedding at The Toolbox in Dupont Circle
Katie and her team at Elegance and Simplicity were absolutely fantastic. From the moment I zoomed with Katie about our wedding, I felt confident she would execute magically. I went into the call very unsure and indecisive, but she really helped me bring the vision together. I also appreciated how she wasn't pushy at all, but still showed me all sorts of options that would help elevate the space. Even with how busy she is, she never left me in the dark or went days without responding to my silly emails. Katie was willing to help wherever she could and did it with a smile on her face. The flowers AND décor (amazing vintage glassware and various misc items) were so pretty and I received so many compliments. I also love how you can see how much she enjoys her job and works effortlessly to make her clients happy. Katie is honest, friendly, and a breath of fresh air. I hope to have a reason to work with her and her team again! I highly recommend using her services for your next wedding or special event :)

Elegance & Simplicity were so great to work with! We hired them to help with string lighting at our venue and the lights were stunning, and made the backyard of the venue sparkle. We would happily work with them again. -

Amari H. Sent on 04/30/2023Exceptional Wedding Florist - Elegance & Simplicity
We had the pleasure of working with Katie from Elegance & Simplicity for our wedding, and we cannot recommend her highly enough! Katie did an incredible job with our chuppah and floral design, capturing the essence of our theme while also exceeding our expectations.
Not only was Katie punctual and always quick to respond to our inquiries, but she was also extremely amenable to our changes in the floral design later in the process.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Katie and Elegance & Simplicity to our friends, family, and anyone in need of a top-notch wedding florist!Elegance & Simplicity's reply:
Thank you so much Amari! Your review means everything to me! So happy for you!!! Thanks again for letting us be part of your day! -

Dipika M. Sent on 07/11/2022Our multi-element intercultural wedding...
... was perfectly handled by Katie and her team! Her experience with Hindu and Jewish weddings allowed her to provide support to our Hindu-Jewish ceremony without complication. She had the cultural vocabulary and knowledge needed to make us feel supported and respected, and she did a great job of balancing keeping our vendors on time with calling audibles when needed. She was also super thoughtful throughout the day, getting us food and water and other necessities without us having to ask for them. She also ensured we had a few minutes of private time as a couple immediate after the ceremony and before the reception! We really appreciated that she lent us some of her personal items to help round out our decor look, like frames for the signature cocktails. She also knew when to take artist liberty with certain decisions vs. coming to us to check, and I felt like she checked on us as the couple just the right amount on our wedding day. We're so grateful for Katie!Elegance & Simplicity's reply:
We loved being part of your day and both your families were so wonderful to work with! Thank you for choosing us! Congratulations !!! -

Vish Sent on 05/31/2022Beautiful florals at affordable prices
Katie and her husband did an amazing job in creating a mandap for our wedding and decorating it with florals. She was able to navigate the craziness around the flower supply chain and still able to deliver amazing decor elements and centerpieces. Her husband who is a craftsman was able to custom make a stage for the wedding. They were able to be very timely in construction and deconstruction, which often are key elements considering total venue time. Would recommend to anyone in the greater DC area!Elegance & Simplicity's reply:
Thank you for such a lovely review! I really appreciate it! My husband is truly the magic maker behind the scenes!☺️ Congratulations and thanks again for letting us be part of your day! -

Absolutely Magical!! Couldn't recommend enough!
Katie and her team created absolutely magical flower arrangements and decor for our Indian fusion wedding. She listened to our ideas and created something more gorgeous than we could have imagined. We have received so many complements from both sides of the family and our photos look incredible. Katie was very flexible and responsive to our budget and needs. We couldn't be happier!!Elegance & Simplicity's reply:
We just loved being part of your day! Thanks so much for choosing us! You two were definitely magical!🙌🏾 -

Nirali M. Sent on 08/05/2021Amazing Wedding Decor!
As we sat and planned our wedding, I knew I wanted one thing that was very important for me for our day: amazing florals! My sister came across Elegance & Simplicity and I reached out to Katie via email. She was very responsive and we set up a Zoom call in order to chat about the vision for the day.
We fell in to easy conversation, she was very straightforward and transparent with everything we discussed, and from there it was a no brainer for me. After agreeing to work together, everything else just fell in to place! I truly appreciated her professional opinion and complete transparency - she isn't in it to dupe you or trick you or even take advantage of you in any way; she simply would like to make your dreams come true in the best way possible and that's exactly what she did for us. We even had to change certain design elements as our guest list grew in light of successful COVID vaccinations and Katie was so helpful in recommending design elements to facilitate the changes while staying true to my wishes. I can't thank her enough for all of her efforts and for her honesty in saving us money and keeping us as close to our budget as possible while still delivering breathtaking florals. It was really the best!
If you are looking for honesty, quality, professionalism, and delivery you've come to the right place. I highly recommend Katie!Elegance & Simplicity's reply:
Thank you Nirali! We loved being part of your day and creating such a beautiful mandap! You really let us be creative and you were a joy to work with! Thanks again for choosing us!! -

Brant M. Sent on 05/12/2021Supportive and professional
We had such a great experience working with Elegance and Simplicity for our wedding. They provided us with exceptional service and an incredible final product that was not made any easier by the shifting needs caused by the public health emergency. Could not recommend them to others eagerly enough.Elegance & Simplicity's reply:
Thank you Brant! We loved being part of your day! I absolutely loved having the cake as the center of attention to boot! :-) -

Melanie G. Sent on 04/22/2021Amazing experience, lovely and unique florals
I absolutely loved the flowers we got from Elegance and Simplicity for our wedding. Katie was super responsive and worked with us to re-plan our flowers after we had to postpone our wedding. She delivered them to two locations the morning of our wedding and worked with me to push up the timeline when we realized we had to leave earlier than expected to avoid road closures. We got so many compliments on the flowers, and my bouquet looks stunning in every photo!Elegance & Simplicity's reply:
Thank you so much Melanie! This really means a lot to me!!! We loved being part of your day! I can't wait to see the photos!!! Congratulations!!!! Thanks again for letting us be part of your day! - Katie Martin -

Fantastic, personal and professional
Katie was professional, direct and extremely knowledgable from the get-go. She gave me confidence, support and a ton of confidence about staying true to my instincts for the design and floral arrangements. She listened to me and to my partner with sensitivity and care, even when we were less than articulate about what we envisioned. She created a beautiful design for flowers and the event that felt just like us - true to our personalities and style. She's also a lovely person. When our big wedding was cancelled due to COVID, she put together a much smaller but still gorgeous set of arrangements, and worked with me to create something that still felt special despite difficult circumstances. No matter what, Katie really cares about making your wedding a perfect day. Recommend highly and grateful for everything that she and her team did for us!Elegance & Simplicity's reply:
Awww - sorry I am just seeing this!!! We just loved being part of your day!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this! Means so much to me!!! We miss you!! Hopefully when this pandemic is over with we can finally have that party together! Many hugs to you and your beautiful family!!! - Katie -

Laura Sent on 12/31/2019Look no further!
We hired E&S to do all of our wedding florals. We went to her a bit last minute (less than 4 months out) and she was able to accommodate us and help us stay within our budget. I'm so glad we hired Katie. Her work is beautiful, but she is also a wonderful person. Whenever I talk to someone who was at my wedding, the first thing they say is how beautiful the flowers were. My bouquet was so unique, and she was able to perfectly capture the vibe we were looking for. She made recommendations for the centerpieces based on the fact that we were serving dinner family style. She is so creative and we were so happy we had the chance to work with her. I wish we could get married again just so I could have another reason to be surrounded by so many beautiful arrangements.Elegance & Simplicity's reply:
Thank you so much Laura!!! It was such an honor to work with you and your husband! Loved making all of your designs - it was such a beautiful day! What a sweet review and I appreciate it so much. Congratulations! Thanks again! xoxoxo -

Lucia Sent on 01/15/2020Best coordination and decor team out there!
We worked with Elegance & Simplicity for day-of coordination, florals, lighting, and decor. It was the best decision throughout our wedding process! Jazmin was our coordinator and went above and beyond leading up to the event and on the day of our wedding. We had issues with another vendor, but thanks to Jazmin, Chrishaun, and Katie, we weren’t aware and the day went smoothly. The flowers were beautiful and everything we dreamed of. Katie and her team are the very best!!Elegance & Simplicity's reply:
Thank you so much Lucia! We loved being a part of your day. Your two families were so lovely to work with as well. Congratulations and thank you again! xoxoxo - Katie
