I met with Debbie a few months before the wedding. I had the "feel" of the wedding that I wanted, but didn't know the exact flowers. It seemed like she "got it" - I left happy, but still a little anxious. I could not have been happier with how things turned out! It was my vision come to life! I wanted classic, elegant, and understated and she absolutely delivered! The colors were exactly what I had envisioned! The center pieces were unique - varying gold vases that were different at every table - exactly what we had discussed, but it turned out better than I imagined. You should absolutely trust Flowers for Special Occasions with your big day!I met with Debbie a few months before the wedding.

Loved, love, loved them! They were so fairly priced, they set up everything (including the furniture that they let us borrow), and took it all away the next day. We didn't have to worry about anything. They were so easy to work with, really made sure they stuck to our budget, and overall were just fantastic. I think the quality of their work speaks for itself and I recommend them to EVERYONE!Loved, love, loved them!

Beautiful flowers at a fair price. Jessica is so easy to work with and did all of the set up & tear down so I didn't have to lift a finger! I am not very creative so I showed her my wedding colors and left the rest to her. The arrangements and bouquets turned out better than I ever could have imagined. Just lovely!Beautiful flowers at a fair price. Jessica is so easy to work with and did all of the set up & tear down so I didn't have to lift a finger!

The Flowers were fantastic. Debbie did both the ceremony and the reception. Because of the flowers I am sure ,I was told this was the most elegant wedding they had attended. I told her I wanted the WOW factor, and she came through.The Flowers were fantastic. Debbie did both the ceremony and the reception.

We worked with Jessica Pitt who did an amazing job on our flowers. They were very flexible in working with our budget and getting the look that we wanted! We were very pleased and the flowers lasted over a week from the wedding ( including the bouquets). She went above and beyond in setting up the decorations, even the ones we didn't pay her to do. We felt very happy with our decision to use them, and would highly recommend them. The lowered value would have been on any florist since flowers are so stinking expensive no matter where you go. But I would totally use her again/recommend her.We worked with Jessica Pitt who did an amazing job on our flowers.

I worked with Jessica Pitt from Flowers for Special Occasions and she was fantastic! She was able to truly create my vision. I had so many compliments about my flowers throughout my whole wedding day (Especially the bouquets and tall center peices.
Another fantastic addition we had was having them make our head table backdrop. I have never seen a backdrop like this done before. It was truly breathtaking.
I highly recommend this company!I worked with Jessica Pitt from Flowers for Special Occasions and she was fantastic! She was able to truly create my vision. I had so many compliments about my flowers throughout my whole wedding day (Especially the bouquets and tall center peices.

The flowers were absolutely stunning, and I received several compliments at our wedding reception. The only downside with this vendor was communication. I did not receive responses within a timely manner, but other than that they were pleasant to work with and met my expectations in the end.The flowers were absolutely stunning, and I received several compliments at our wedding reception.

Overall a positive experience. We had several planning meetings ahead of time to determine the aesthetic and feel of the flowers. I was IN LOVE with my bouquet and my bridesmaids bouquets, which was probably my highest floral priority. But at the reception they included some items in the large table arrangements that I specifically asked them not to. It wasn't a huge deal but was disappointing as I had certainly made a point of it. They also didn't use as many dark purples as I had asked for. When you're spending big money, the little details count.
The owner, Jessica, that I worked with was somewhat slow to respond to emails. Communication was good but delayed. She seemed to know and understand what I wanted but then the reception had some issues so I'm not sure what happened there.
The candle sets we rented were great and exactly what we asked for.Overall a positive experience. We had several planning meetings ahead of time to determine the aesthetic and feel of the flowers.

I chose Flowers for Special Occasions for my wedding. I communicated with Jessica and Debbie over several months, in person, over phone/email and Pinterest. In a planning meeting they asked which flowers to omit from the designs. I noted roses and carnations, as I dislike them and had other flower suggestions that I preferred. We narrowed down a final proposal that I was excited to see come to life.
The day before the wedding they let us stop in for a preview, which shockingly included carnations and roses. Since it was the day before, I approved the roses to keep the fullness of the arrangements and asked for all carnations to be removed from the wedding completely. I called after we left to confirm once more.
The bouquets were lovely and were 1 thing that matched what we discussed. Unfortunately we received 2 arrangements with carnations and the corsages had FAKE flowers in them - which was also never communicated. These items brought me to tears and unfortunately it was hard to brush off on the day of the wedding because flowers were of utmost importance to us. The reception arrangements included rentals that I loved, but the flowers were not to the caliber of what we had discussed.
I contacted the team after the wedding to discuss my concerns and work it out, but they instead chose to defend why they used items that strayed from the proposal. Unfortunately they did not apologize or admit to the mistakes and oversights regarding carnations and fake flowers.
I wish I would have followed the red flags that popped up throughout the entire process: the team was very slow to respond to emails, their proposal process was unorganized and we were unclear of the amount due until 2 days before the wedding. Unfortunately as thorough as I was, it seems they are understaffed, unorganized and unable to keep notes in order for their clients.I chose Flowers for Special Occasions for my wedding.

My family has used this florist in the past and we were happy with their work. However, I wasn't as pleased for my wedding. My consultation went well and the shop looked great, however it did smell of cigarette smoke. My flowers were pretty on my wedding day, but looked nothing like the pictures I brought in or what was selected during the consultation. They also browned before the reception was over.
The bill was another issue. My husband and I sent the check by mail a week before the wedding. I was emailed the day of the rehearsal dinner saying they never received it. I wasn't called or emailed back as I was trying to resolve this issue. When I did get hold of someone over the phone, they said they have had this issue before. It was odd how no one was keeping us informed. We later discovered the check was cashed before the rehearsal so I feel they handled their business poorly and created unwarranted stress on our end.My family has used this florist in the past and we were happy with their work.
