    The florals are the best, Anne is even better!

    Anne is a superstar. Our wedding day was flawless, and all of our florals were otherworldly. The entire process was easy and painless, Anne did a wonderful job of setting up a gameplan, helped us pick appropriate flowers, and make sure we were stress free on our day. As the groom I had a special request of a pocket boutonniere for my tuxedo and Anne did AMAZING!! Overall I could not recommend Gardens and Roads enough, 11/10 Stars, all the praise in the world!!!

    Absolutely Stunning Florals!!!

    We used Garden and Roads for our December wedding of about 200 people. Anne made whole process from the start to finish really easy with her professionalism and transparency. As someone who knew nothing about florals, going in to the whole process, Anne made sure to tailor the experience to my level of understanding (with visuals!!). Her florals for our wedding were absolutely beautiful! Anne makes sure to really listen to your vision and tie her expertise in to create beautiful arrangements, bouquets, and boutonnieres! She and her team didn’t incredible job setting up their florals for our ceremony and reception.

    Since finding Garden and Roads for our wedding, I’ve also bought some arrangements from her. Her arrangements are absolutely stunning, and Anne is such a lovely person to work with! I highly recommend you check our Garden and Roads for any of your floral needs!

    Beautiful flowers!

    I was really struggling with finding the right florist for our November wedding, until Garden and Roads was recommended to me from a coworker. When I initially reached out to Anne, I was so lost with what exactly I wanted. Anne was so helpful, kind, and more than professional, giving me suggestions and recommendations during our calls. We even went over how budgets and making sure that I was completely comfortable with everything that I was going to spend, which I really appericiated. And the end was result was FLAWLESS. The flower arrangements and colors were everything I could have dream of and more for our wedding day. I was really blown away and I am still obsessing over how gorgeous my flowers were. Garden and Roads tries to only use seasonal flowers, and holy cow did they deliver. If you are thinking of a florist for your wedding, look no further. Anne made all my floral dreams come true and I cannot thank her enough.

    Garden and Roads's reply:

    Thank you! Your wedding florals were so fun and what a great location at LaBelle Winery. Congratulations!

    Anne was wonderful to work with!

    My wedding flowers were absolutely perfect! I wanted bright florals that reflected our non-traditional, fun vibe at Night Shift Brewery. Even though it was October, I didn’t want Fall themed florals and Anne got it right. I loved my bouquet and the simplicity of the loose flowers in the growlers. And I love that the flowers are locally grown by people who clearly love what they do. Anne was wonderful throughout this process— attentive, thoughtful and very calming during a stressful time. I highly recommend Garden and Roads.

    Highly recommend Garden and Roads!

    Working with Garden and Roads for our wedding was a delight. From the beginning, we knew we wanted something a little different - and Anne helped us determine what would work best. She listened to our thoughts without judgement which mattered a lot to us. From early planning stages she was responsive and transparent, and communication was clear. We especially loved how organized she was, sharing slides and spreadsheets laying out expectations and pricing ahead of time. She found beautifully colored and playfully textured blooms and greens, and put together some awesome flower crowns that we wore for the full day. We also dedicated part of our ceremony to honoring our parents, and she created the perfect little floral arrangements for them. On the day of, Garden and Roads delivered our personal flowers ahead of time so that we could have them in our pre-ceremony photos, and helped set up all the centerpieces and candles at the venue for us. Finally, we were very pleased that she prioritizes locally grown flowers and eschews floral foam. We are glad that we now have a local florist we can go to for any of our floral needs, and would absolutely recommend Garden and Roads to anyone planning a wedding (or otherwise!)

    Beautiful flowers - lovely owner

    Garden and Roads provided beautiful wedding flowers for my daughter's wedding on 10/14/23.
    Anne was lovely to work with and though I did not meet her in person until the wedding day, she took time to find me and introduce herself prior to the ceremony. She takes her work very personally, and noted that some of the flowers in my mother-of-the-bride bouquet came from her garden, which I found so touching! She is deeply passionate about her work and it shows. The wedding cake flowers were my personal favorite!! Simple and elegant! I would absolutely recommend Garden & Roads if you have a wedding or any special event in your future. Thank you, Anne.

    Gorgeous florals!!

    Anne did an incredible job on the flowers for our wedding on 10/14/23! I went into the process not exactly knowing a clear vision for the day and Anne helped me refine and decide on florals that were perfect for our wedding. From our ceremony florals on the gazebo to the beautiful bouquets she put together, every floral arrangement was gorgeous and just what I wanted. Anne also arranged for my bridal bouquet to be wrapped in leftover lace from my dress, which just added a beautiful extra touch!

    Garden and Roads's reply:

    Thank you, Abigail! I particularly loved decorating your cake in the mirror room at Endicott Estate!

    Garden and Roads is THE BEST

    Anne is amazing. If you are looking for an incredibly talented, organized, kind florist look no further. She made our wedding floral dreams come true. From our first meeting, she was transparent, easy to talk to and worked with us and our budget to make sure we were able to achieve what we had envisioned.She nailed the soft fall colors for our 10/8 wedding at the Fruitlands museum. Throughout the wedding planning process, she made it such a stress-free experience and I couldn't be happier with our choice to use Garden and Roads and with the quality of work she produces. We highly recommend Garden and Roads!!

    Amazing Experience with Garden and Roads

    Of all of the vendors we worked with, Garden and Roads was easily one of our best experiences. If you're a data nerd like I am, the way Anne presents high and low price points was an absolute delight, and made it so easy to see how changes in price points for certain items would impact our total and allowed us to stay within budget. The PowerPoints she makes are a great visual reference, especially for my husband who's not great at visualization (and neither of us know a lot of flower names). Anne really understood the vision we had for lots of bold, bright colors and when we brought her some non-traditional ideas (incorporating feathers into my bouquet, using fans with flowers for the bridesmaids, etc.) she leaned in and figured out a way to make it all work and come together. On the day she was a great help with last minute fixes and adjustments, and was someone I trusted completely to give free reign to make it fit the vision. I had absolutely no stress with Garden and Roads, and I would not hesitate to recommend them wholeheartedly for anyone needing a florist in the Boston area.

    Dream flowers for our wedding!

    We were so impressed by Gardens and Roads and feel so lucky to have found them! Our flowers turned out absolutely gorgeous and exactly as I had pictured. Anne was super easy and pleasant to work with. I went in not having much of a vision and Anne was patient and helpful in guiding me through the process and helping me make decisions, all while being knowledgable and transparent about pricing. She made the planning process seamless, as she is organized with detailed spreadsheets that made planning stress-free and easy. She was prompt with her responses and willing to hop on a call to discuss plans. I highly recommend Gardens and Roses for your wedding flowers, you will not be disappointed!

    Garden and Roads's reply:

    Thank you, Annie - I loved all the sweet & summery pink shades in your florals and Willowdale is such a lovely setting!

    Wonderful Experience

    I highly recommend Garden and Roads for anyone planning a wedding! Anne was amazing- she walked us through the process of choosing wedding florals with a helpful slideshow and was very transparent in pricing with her spreadsheets. I appreciated all the time she took to work with me bring my vision to life; I learned so much about flowers in the process. On the big day, Anne and her assistant did a beautiful job setting up for our ceremony and reception. I teared up when I saw my bouquet and other florals for the first time, they were so beautiful and everything I dreamed of and more. I received compliments all night from guests on how beautiful everything was. I cannot recommend Garden and Roads enough!

    Stunning flowers & excellent service

    We had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Anne at Garden and Roads for our fall 2022 wedding. Her arrangements were really gorgeous. I highly recommend browsing her Instagram account @gardenandroads for visual examples of her wedding arrangements - it was very helpful for me to get inspiration. She really cared about helping me bring the vision we had for our wedding to life and was easy to contact & communicate with. She's also very respectful of budgets and transparent about pricing - she has detailed pricing information available upfront on her website, which was super helpful and saved me a lot of time determining if she was in our price range (whereas it was difficult for me to find similar info for other floral vendors without taking the time to set up an initial consultation). Her process for helping select flower options (iterative process with example pictures in a slideshow) as well as how she kept track of information (working spreadsheet that we both could update live - again, very transparent about pricing etc) both were easy and efficient. I highly recommend working with her!

    Great experience, beautiful designs!

    Garden and Roads made our wedding day so beautiful. We are still in awe of the bouquets and the decorated trellis Anne and her team created for us. I loved working with Anne to plan out the florals for our wedding. I am a community organizer who works on climate change, so I really appreciated Anne's insights into seasonal and sustainable options. She was collaborative, communicative, organized, and overall extremely easy to work with. And of course, she's extremely talented. I have recommended Garden and Roads to all of my friends, and I will continue to do so!

    Garden and Roads's reply:

    Thanks, Evan! We were so excited to work at Elm Bank, home of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society on your wedding florals and are so glad that you were pleased with the result!

    Dream wedding flowers

    Anne was amazing to work with. From the start of planning, she had everything organized in a spreadsheet and slideshow for us to look at. My now husband and I had no knowledge of flowers and what would be in season for our wedding, and Anne helped guide us to something that fit our vision while working with local flowers. Fast forward to our wedding day, when I saw the flowers and it felt like Anne had somehow reached into my head, figured out my dream bouquet, and made it reality. I would recommend Anne in a heartbeat.

    Love that my gorgeous wedding flowers were local!

    Working with Anne was such a wonderful experience! We had an intimate wedding—just 33 guests—and Anne was able to work within our budget to make everything beautiful. We really appreciated her focus on sustainable practices and local/in season florals. I loved all of our wedding flowers—but was completely obsessed with both my bouquet and the fresh floral decorations that she did for the cake. I highly recommend working with Anne for wedding flowers!

    Beautiful Flowers and a Wonderful Experience!

    Anne is a joy to work with and her designs are simply wonderful. Even on a budget, she provided us with a truly professional service that was all we could hope for and more. She incorporated all of our reference images and feedback beautifully into the boutonnieres and long stem roses we requested for our ceremony. On top of that, the bouquet was, needless to say, stunning, and a striking addition to a wonderful day. We would absolutely work with her again and recommend her for any flower arrangement services.

    Could not have been happier with our florals!

    Anne was our florist for our July 2022 wedding, and we could not have been happier with our florals and working with Anne. She was super responsive, detail oriented, very friendly, and she had the best vision for our floral arrangements. She put together a PowerPoint presentation to create a vision for the wedding day, and that was incredibly helpful to see everything in that way. Additionally, she also sent us an excel spreadsheet with all the pricing, and we really appreciated her transparency throughout the whole process. We definitely felt that we got our money's worth with our flowers, and she did a really great job creating beautiful combinations of flowers within both our budget and color scheme. We loved that she utilized flowers in season to the extent possible, and she was very flexible in executing our ideas. Our floral arrangements came out better than we ever expected, and we've received countless compliments on how beautiful they turned out. We highly recommend using Garden & Roads as a wedding florist and are so thankful we chose to work with Anne for our big day.

    Garden and Roads's reply:

    After so many COVID delays - what a wonderful day your wedding was! Thank you for your kind words - working with such a great couple makes my job easy and I was so happy to be part of your beautiful day!

    Beautiful florals from a local and sustainable florist

    It was a pleasure to work with Anne for the florals for my wedding. She was so helpful in helping me to refine my vision for the florals, and the outcome was so beautiful. One of the highlights was how she figured out how to decorate a birdcage that I had for cards - it turned out better that I could have imagined! She was easy to work with and very transparent about the pricing for different options. I love that she focuses on sustainable practices and local/in season florals. I highly recommend working with Anne for wedding flowers!

    Professional, kind, and completely impressed with the quality.

    Anne was AMAZING! I use to live and Medford and order her bouquets and arrangements that use locally grown flowers (some that even come from their own gardens). I was always blown away by her work. It was a no brainer to have her create all the florals for our wedding. Anne took the time to speak to me on the phone (even while on vacation!) to figure out my vision. She also asked me to send some photos of flowers I liked. From there she created a slide show of colors, bouquet and arrangement ideas, and included price points. She was upfront, honest, and made everything so easy. I HIGHLY recommend Garden and Roads for their professionalism, quality, and kindness!

    Garden and Roads's reply:

    Thank you! I appreciate your kind words and loved the soft pastel colors in your wedding bouquet! Best, - Anne

    We hired Anne for our ceremony florals and she did a beautiful job! She was willing to work within our budget and was very thorough in discussing the options and style choices to help us make decisions that would look beautiful.

    Look no further brides!

    I had the best experience creating the wedding florals of my dreams with Anne from Garden and Roads! We communicated via phone/email the entire time and she was always transparent with me regarding pricing, seasonal flowers, etc. There were many times Anne would ask me questions that made me go “oh, I didn’t think of that,” which goes to show how detail oriented she is! She executed everything so beautifully and I truly can’t get over what a pleasure it was working with Anne. I would 100% recommend Garden and Roads to my family and friends looking for floral arrangements for any occasion (especially for weddings!) and I hope to work with Anne again for future events!

    Garden and Roads's reply:

    Thanks for sharing your experience with Garden and Roads! I loved the setting for your wedding - you can't get much more Boston than the head of the Charles on the day of the Head of the Charles Regatta and your photos are just beautiful!

    Anne Brought All of my Wedding Dreams of Life

    Anne was, without a doubt, one of the most special vendors we could have ever found. Her warmth, her artistic talent, her professionalism - her FLOWERS! Anne and I had numerous meetings before the big day as we postponed and rescheduled over the course of 2020. Anne was a calming, friendly presence in what could've been an incredibly stressful time. She *completely* understood the look I was hoping for in our florals, and went above and beyond. As I tried to describe romantic woodland in autumn jewel tones, she found MUSHROOMS to add to our displays! Mushrooms! And fern fronds! And mosses galore! Everyone was raving about the beautiful decorations and honestly I could look at our wedding photos all day just to enjoy that room full of beautiful greens and reds and oranges again. I loved my bouquet so much I'm having an artist preserve it in resin. EVERYONE should consider Garden and Roads for their event floral needs!

    Erika, Thanks so much for your review. Your wedding was so much fun and quite the fun challenge to go up and down Loon Mountain in the gondola multiple times to get everything set-up. Can't wait to see more photos from the day! -Anne

    Absolutely flawless experience

    Garden and Roads did an absolutely flawless job for our October wedding. Anne was amazing to work with, and with only limited direction (basically- color pallet and the goal of a wild, rustic vibe) she brought my vision to life. Every detail was exquisite, and everyone was commenting on how beautiful the flowers were. Thank you, Anne, for an easy, stress-free, and generally fantastic experience. Brides and grooms-to-be— hire her!!
