  The Flowers were Amazing and Above and Beyond

  Patti's work with the flowers at our wedding was incredible. We were so grateful to have such a beautiful arrangement of flowers that really fit our tastes and vibe. In addition, Patti went above and beyond what we expected with much more greenery and flowers than we were even thinking we would have. We really appreciate her generosity and attention to detail. Thank you Patti!

  Beautiful florals and decor

  I am so glad that I was referred to Patti for my wedding at the San Diego Botanic Garden. Before meeting with her I had some idea of my color palette but was not as clear on the details of my florals and decor. She guided me through selecting my florals and pieces of decor that would work with the venue, the season, and even down to the fabric on my dress. The final product was everything I wanted and more. Every floral arrangement and decor detail pulled together our aesthetic. I loved my bouquet so much, that I ended up preserving it in jewelry. I would highly recommend Patti as she was both a pleasure to work with and amazing at what she does!!

  Patti is such a pleasure to work with! She is a true professional who will make your wedding dreams come true without an unreasonable price tag! The process was enjoyable from the beginning, from friendly email communication to gauge what we had in mind, to meeting her at her awesome “she-shed” creative studio where we played with ideas for florals, center pieces, and other decorations. I am still so obsessed with the way my bouquet turned out! Its everything I imagined and more. THANK YOU PATTI!!

  Thistle Dew did an OUTSTANDING job from start to finish for my recent wedding in Pacific Beach. We are from Colorado, so our wedding was destination, and Patti was very helpful with all the planning and communication from afar. Patti was very quick to respond to emails and calls, which is huge! Patti really pulled everything together for my wedding from decor, signage, and flowers. She really took my vision, which was sort of all over the place, and created exactly what I imagined, probably even better then I could have imagined. Patti is very professional, kind, and easy to work with. I couldn't recommend a better florist/event designer. Thank you for making our dream wedding come true Patti and Thistle Dew!

  Patti totally exceeded my expectations! My first phone call with Patti was really positive, I was a little overwhelmed at the idea of planning a wedding, and she immediately put me at ease by giving me some guidance on some good places to start figuring out design ideas. After our initial phone call, Patti would send me emails of pictures of items in her inventory (chuppah, table numbers, charger plates, candle votives), to help me in selecting items for the wedding. I feel very lucky that Patti was part of the vendor team, she was so pleasant and easy to work with, and very talented. Ultimately, Patti created a real live fairy tale, from the gorgeous chuppah to the warmth of the candle light, the texture and color of the centerpieces (including the cute cocktail hour centerpieces with the white gourds!), and the natural rustic look of the table numbers, it all came together into such an elegant display. The guests were practically fighting each other at the end of the night over who would get to take the centerpieces home. Patti is a talented florist and designer, I can't recommend her highly enough!

  Patti with thistledew made all of my wedding floral dreams come true. I had the hardest time finding a florist that I liked and really felt understood my vision and she went above and beyond and came up with creative ways to make my budget work. She is so sweet and so willing to work with me and I just kept raving about her from the moment I met her. She is extremely experienced and worth EVERY penny.

  Patti at Thistle Dew is an unbelievably talented floral designer. As an event professional (& sister to the groom) I work with florists and designers all over the country and Patti was such a pleasure to work with (flexible and understanding) but so very talented. It was a very very hot and humid summer day in Southern California and the flowers not only held up that day, but we were able to enjoy the bouquets for days after the event. If you're looking for more than just "wedding flowers" I highly suggest Patti, she understands AND executes the design elements and idea's that we had dreamed up!

  I was referred to Patti by someone who worked at a local horticultural school in San Diego as I was looking for an independent designer or small business owner. My husband and I had a destination wedding on September 5th, 2014 and working with Patti was an absolute dream. She was by far the most professional of all of our wedding vendors and went above and beyond in every aspect. Patti was the only vendor that we did not experience a single issue with. She responded to my emails in a timely manner and was always available to offer suggestions.
  
  Patti really cares about her clients and it shows in her work. When I arrived at our ceremony and reception, I was completely and utterly blown away. Patti had single-handedly brought to life my vision in a way that made my mother say that our reception felt like us. For my husband who was less able to visualize beforehand, he thought that her work was impeccable. Patti's beautiful arrangements made our outdoor rustic venue look polished. It was stunning and she was able to work her magic on my budget. She didn't scoff at us for having a budget or complain. She just made it happen.
  
  I would 100% recommend Patti to anyone and working with her was the best decision that we made during the wedding planning process. She is a true professional and talented designer and I hope to use her services again :)

  Anyone looking for a wedding florist in San Diego, I highly recommend Patti! She was very easy to work with! We had a small destination wedding over on Coronado Island so, other than meeting Patti once about 6 months before the wedding. All the decisions had to be made from Arizona. Luckily Patti was able to email pictures and get the feel for what I was looking for. Everything turned out amazing! She was an absolute pleasure to work with!
