    I had been a fan of Michelle's work via Instagram for a while and she was the first person I thought of when it came time to pick a florist. To say she didn't disappoint would be the understatement of the century; I don't think I have words to describe how beautiful our florals were!

    The first thing you should know about Michelle is that she is genuinely one of the most lovely people I've ever worked with. Her warmth radiates through everything she does -- every email exchange, every piece of the proposal and contract, and ultimately every arrangement, bouquet and bout. Everyone I met on her team during the install was equally as gracious and kind, and my family still comments about how fabulous and nice the floral team was.

    But down to the nitty gritty -- the flowers. They were out of this world. We had a last minute venue change due to the fires in Wine Country and Michelle made sure that the arrangements we'd originally planned for a private vineyard translated to our new location, a funky ballroom in San Francisco. My bouquet was a work of art. The table arrangements were romantic, lush, and striking. The bouts and corsages were perfect and she struck a balance for different people -- my husband's bout was a gorgeous small rose but the 2 year old twin ring bearers had smaller scale bouts with seasonal berries that didn't drive them nuts all night. There was so much thought and care that obviously went into every small detail and it really showed.

    I will probably gush about how amazing Michelle is for years to come. She is so talented and a true artist. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

    Michelle did an amazing job with our flowers. Not only is she a truly lovely person to work with, but her work is breathtaking. We absolutely loved our bouquets and bouts and received so many compliments on them. We are so happy we got to work with Michelle for our wedding and would do it again in a heartbeat.

    Words to describe the floral wonderland Michelle and her amazing team created for our wedding: BREATHTAKING. AWE-INSPIRING. UNREAL. STUNNING.

    Michelle made our wedding dreams come true, and we are forever grateful to her for helping to make our big day the best day of our lives.

    From the very beginning, Michelle was incredibly attentive to our needs and concerns, including budget, timelines, and venue restrictions. Her professionalism is beyond incredible: she was prompt with answering all of my emails, phone calls, and coordinating with our other vendors. She was SO patient with us with our ever-changing ideas and ridiculously-expanding guest list.

    My husband and I knew that we wanted our wedding aesthetic to be anything but ordinary, but had no clue how to approach the design. After doing a walk-through with us at our venue (which, btw, she traveled hundreds of miles without hesitation during her busy schedule to accommodate us... seriously, who does that?!), she delivered a gorgeous schematic a few days later with a proposed budget. This is so helpful during the whole planning process, as you get to see the entire breakdown of expenses. She had so many amazing ideas that I would have NEVER thought about, and I have the pictures to prove it.

    Beyond everything, Michelle during this incredibly stressful journey of wedding planning was more than just our florist... she was a source of comfort and reason. There are so many little things you don't think about when you are planning a wedding. She worked so well with our day-of coordinator, photographer, videographer, and venue coordinators to make sure things went smoothly. To this day, I still have people coming up to me (friends, wedding guests, and complete strangers) to tell me our floral design was the most beautiful they had ever seen.

    My advice to all brides and grooms: don't even think twice about booking anyone else. Michelle is the GODDESS OF ALL THAT BLOOMS!

    Michelle is an absolutely talented floral designer and a joy to work with! She was one of my favorite vendors to work with for our wedding. I initially had many comments and a way I envisioned how my florals would look like. Then I realized I know nothing about designs when it came to coordinating them with our venue and decided to let Michelle, the professional florist, come up with the designs and gave her free reign since we trusted her professional opinions. I told her the color scheme that I wanted and she came all the way up from San Jose to our venue in San Francisco to scope out our venue. I am among one of her many first-year brides; however, her flower designs looked like she's been doing them for years. Her designs looked better than most I've seen on my list of 20 florists I researched prior to finding Michelle. My wedding planner also agreed that her floral designs looked very high-end.

    Michelle has a super bubbly and sweet personality, and her floral designs are fieerrccee! And by fierce, they were drop-dead gorgeous, very dreamy, and lush!!! The stuff that Pinterest is made of! For our wedding, I loved my lush bouquet. I originally wanted something generic and safe and with ordinary flowers. Michelle gave me a lot of flowers that made it very unique and special for our day. My husband's boutonniere was to die for too. There were so many intricate details to it, and it wasn't one of those large rose buds that many florists try to pass off as boutonnieres. His had a very small rose bud, with a tiny little succulent with twisty things in it and other very cute details. My husband wanted to keep it, so now it's drying so we can save it as a memento.

    Michelle found the most beautiful blooms for our floral decor. I also loved the "single-bloom" flowers she did for the flower girls because there was still a lot of details going on with them. They looked so incredibly adorable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

    Michelle Lywood of Love Blooms was my wedding florist and she was an absolute dream to work with and her floral designs were incredible.

    Having Michelle as our florist was one of the best choices I made throughout the wedding process. She was incredibly responsive and available for questions, walked through my wedding site with me and was sweet throughout the whole process, to boot. She actually helped to calm me throughout the process with her kindness and stress-free attitude.

    But let’s move on to flowers themselves. We had a bridal bouquet, centerpieces, a fully decorated Chuppa and a big floral crown (for our rustic, farm wedding). She sent me a photo of my floral crown the day of my wedding and I started crying in the make-up chair because it was exactly what I had wanted. The centerpieces were nuanced, vibrant and stunning. The Chuppa basically made me cry from the sheer beauty (I am actually not that emotional or dramatic).

    I’m not prone to hyperbole, but I think she might have designed the most beautiful floral designs I have ever seen. Everyone I spoke to mentioned how beautiful the floral decorations were, and even a few months after the wedding people still mention how beautiful I looked with the gorgeous wedding crown from Michelle. She is the absolute best, and I would give her the highest recommendation.

    Amazing, breath taking, magical... Just a few words to sum up how the amazingly Talented Michelle made me feel on my wedding day. Through out the whole process she was so on top of everything. I love Her enthusiasm and passion and engery when you talk flowers with her! She truly is an artist and knows what she's doing. She makes you feel comfortable she gets to know you and then the end results will blow your mind. You can tell she loves what she does because she pays attention to every detail. She took my vision and all my crazy random thoughts and made it all a reality! I totally put all my trust in her and it was worth it! Please, if you haven't found a floral designer I promise you Michelle will not disappoint! She is the best there is!!! You will not only fall in love with her work but her bubbly, fun personality as well!! Thank you Michelle for making my wedding a dream come true you are a true angel Xo jewls

    Michelle is the total package when it comes to flower vendors! I honestly cannot say enough good things about her. She is enthusiastic and passionate about what she does on top of being incredibly talented. She created the most gorgeous and perfect bouquets and flower crowns for my wedding - I got compliments all day long and even to this day people are still talking about what a fantastic job Michelle did! She was always available to respond quickly to my texts and emails and she created exactly what I wanted within the budget we set. On top of being a flower genius, she is one of the kindest and most genuine people I have ever met. She was so much fun to work with and truly went above and beyond what we expected from her!!

    Michelle did an amazing job on our flowers for our wedding!! Michelle was delightful to work with and paid attention to the details I mentioned in our initial meeting. I was so happy when I saw all of the flowers for the first time and I felt like an elegant, beautiful bride when I held my lovely bouquet! Thank you so much Michelle!
