    Working with Sidnee was wonderful! She was previously working with "A Touch of Spring" and recently bought the wedding flower business from them to start her own company. So although there aren't many reviews yet, she has lots of experience. We planned our wedding from out of town and we were working on a tight budget. Sidnee made this process easy and was very responsive to emails. She was able to take the pictures I sent of the flowers I loved to re-create affordable alternatives for us. We loved the look of the wedding flowers; they were a great addition to the day! I would definitely recommend working with Thyme Hill Designs.

    Perfectly Captured My Vision!!

    After a long search for a florist that puts together beautiful quality arrangements, but wouldn't cost a fortune, I'm so glad we found Sidnee at Thyme Hill! We got married at Castle Farms this past summer and Sidnee took everything that I sent her and that we discussed and turned it into reality! Because the venue itself is so stunning, I wanted flowers that were simple and elegant to complement it (white, light pink and ivory color scheme). She delivered just that and I especially loved the geometric candle centerpieces and the decorative flowers for our cake. The one thing I was nervous about was the ceremony flower arch for the Knight's Courtyard because it was important to me but I couldn't find a picture of exactly what I wanted, but Sidnee nailed it just through our conversations. No joke, it made the backdrop of our ceremony and family pictures so beautiful!! Sidnee is extremely responsive, friendly and is a true artist. She also was able to accommodate several last minute requests with no issue, which I appreciated! She knows her way around Castle Farms so that gave me piece of mind as well. Overall, I cannot say enough great things about Sidnee and we highly recommend her!!

    Worth Every Penny

    Sidnee was absolutely amazing! I was blown away by her ability to recreate what I had shown her from Pinterest. Our flowers were absolutely stunning, and she helped turn our wedding into a fairytale. Guests couldn't stop talking about how breathtaking everything was. Sidnee was so awesome with responding to emails, and her set up was unbelievable. We seriously couldn't have asked for a better florist I highly recommend using her! Pricing, communication, and quality of work were all spectacular! I felt extremely confident having her set up our venue with little to no direction, and she did not disappoint.

    Sidnee makes the most beautiful arrangements I've ever seen. She is so knowledgeable, helpful and can make your vision a reality with her experience. She is extremely professional and her response time to questions is unrivaled! Wedding floral can be very intimidating, but Sidnee walked us through the entire process helping with suggestions and with what we needed. I would always return to her shop for any floral needs!!

    Thyme Hill Designs's reply:

    Thanks so much Leslie for your kind words! It was totally my pleasure to be a part of your day! I love seeing the professional pics too! Thanks for posting those!!

    Best wishes to you both!

    Thyme Hill Designs did an amazing job providing the flowers for our recent wedding! She asked questions during the process that helped me figure out what type of flowers and accessories I would need. Not only did she help me identify what look I wanted and the best way to get it, she was mindful of my budget. She was fantastic communicating by email (I didn't meet her until the wedding day). Best of all, her arrangements were far more amazing than I expected! The center pieces were so much more lush and full than I expected and I absolutely loved the bouquets!

    I would highly recommend Sidnee at Thyme Hill! She does a fantastic job and was so easy and friendly to work with!

    Wow! I don't have the right words to thank Thyme Designs enough for the most beautiful flowers ever! Having a destination wedding my husband and I did everything over the phone. They were absolutely stunning. I received nothing but compliments. Even my husband who wanted no flowers at all loved them. Couldn't have been more perfect.

    Sidnee at Thyme Hill was AMAZING! The first time we met with her, I felt like she really understood what I was going for. She was totally flexible and open to all of our ideas. The day of the wedding, she absolutely exceeded our expectations. My bouquets and centerpieces were gorgeous. I definitely recommend her!

    If a newly engaged couple asked me to recommend only one vendor from my wedding I would easily have chosen Sidnee! Thyme Hill is INCREDIBLE! Sidnee was so attentive and responsive and kind. And affordable! As a little girl the one thing I always dreamed about was my wedding flowers and Sidnee far exceeded my visions.

    I emailed SIdnee pretty frequently and she was responsive and totally understood my ideas!

    I would highly recommend Thyme Hill!

    Sidnee was absolutely wonderful! I had no idea where to even start with decisions on flowers and Sidnee was so patient and helpful in guiding me! I couldn't have asked for prettier arrangements! The whole time leading up to the wedding she was always available for calls and emails back and forth about different decisions and kept in mind any "idea" pictures I sent over. I had wanted an archway decoration and she was able to work with the vendor to make sure that the hooks were in place which was one less thing on my mind! The day of she was fabulous, the room took my breath away. Another ceremony had been taking place and was running late and she was still able to get everything set up for the archway just as we had discussed even though it was a total time crunch! After the ceremony she brought those arrangements into the reception hall and set them up so we could enjoy them for a bit longer. She was super mindful of my budget as well! We had two ceremonies and she even made me a smaller version of my bouquet for the first one, and dropped it off at the salon the day off! Working with Sidnee was such a wonderful experience! Couldn't have asked for anyone better!!

    Sidnee was just fantastic working with all our requests! She is very organized and I never worried for a second about the flowers. I knew they would look great--and they did! We received numerous complements on them and they lasted for many days after! I sent a few images of my ideas and she put everything together just as I envisioned. She was very helpful giving suggestions on things i was unsure about and listed everything out for me in detail so there were no issues and ensured we were on the same page with everything. She stood by everything we discussed a year prior and even threw in some things at no charge! She also allowed us to rent vases which was a huge savings! The day of, her staff delivered and then picked up everything right after so we had no worries. We were very happy with Thyme Hill Designs!

    Sidnee was such a good find for our wedding at Castle Farms!! I am not very well versed in flowers, but Sidnee made it so easy. We chatted briefly on the phone where I told her about my vision, and she came up with the most perfect floral proposal based on our conversation. Sidnee is SO talented, and she is extremely reasonably priced, if not a STEAL! She can be a little slow to reply to emails at times, but it’s just her running the company and she is really really busy, so be patient with her, it’s so worth it, I promise! Our ceremony and reception flowers, bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages were all SO beautiful and EXACTLY what I envisioned! They were simple, elegant, and tasteful. Sidnee was on time in delivering our flowers and had everything set up for us. I hope she is available for your event, because she really is the best!

    When looking for floral proposals and services, I was completely naive about the true cost of wedding flower services, and wasn't sure if we would be able to find anything that would fit within our budget and also cover everything we needed for our wedding. Upon the recommendation of Castle Farms, our wedding venue, we contacted Sidnee Barrett with Thyme Hill Designs. I was drawn to Sidnee's wonderful personality and friendliness, and connected with her again at the Castle Farm wedding expo where I was able to see her floral arrangement examples and book her for our wedding. Sidnee is personable, extremely flexible with your wishes and desires, and works hard to create a custom look for your wedding. I expressed an interest in having earthy florals, lots of greenery and moss for our reception tables, and deep rich colors for our October wedding this year. Sidnee put together a proposal for our ceremony chuppah decor, bouquets, boutineers, corsages, tabletop decor, and venue decor that was very professional and captured exactly what I had envisioned. She used beautiful natural elements like wheat, feathers, and dried flowers to compliment our florals and they were all complimentary of our overall style. After seeing our first proposal, Sidnee worked with me to bring the florals into our target budget and she has got to be one of the most affordable wedding florist in the Northern Michigan wedding industry. As noted on a previous review, response times vary with Sidnee because she is the sole owner/operator of her business, but she is more than willing to have phone calls and in person meetings with you. Be sure to note that florists often provide candlesticks as part of their tabletop decor, so be sure to finalize this with your florist! We appreciated Sidnee's genuine excitement for our wedding day and while the moments we had to enjoy our flowers was fleeting, we have loved looking through photos of them since our wedding! Highly recommend!

    Sidnee is amazing! So kind, patient and dependable. My flowers were beautiful!! I loved that she used a variety of flowers in our centerpieces. My bouquet & the bridesmaids bouquets were probably to most beautiful I have ever seen in my life. They were big and so timeless. My ONLY issue was the arch that we wanted for our Ceremony. It was supposed to be a large arrangement of flowers and greenery at the top of the arch that would later be moved to our backdrop behind my sweetheart table. The arrangement was really small & did not hold up for the ceremony, so it ended up on the floor of my stage. It looked beautiful there but it was really bare in the areas where it was meant to be and that really sucked! She did say that she would refund us for that arrangement & that is very kind! I would definitely hire Sidnee every time. She is very talented!

    Sidnee was fantastic to work with.She took the time to meet with me and ensure she understood my likes and dislikes.During this process Sidnee was friendly,enthusiastic,and knowledgeable.I lived three hours away,but she did a great job accommodating to my needs.She stayed within my budget and my flowers were beautiful!She showed up on time and decorated everything to perfection the day of the wedding, so I did not have to worry about a thing that morning.Sidnee ordered extra vases for me and allowed me to rent them at a very low price.The only complaint I have is that she did not inform me that she was unable to get red gerber daisies with a dark center for the wedding.Throughout our email exchange,I made sure Sidnee knew I wanted a dark center(not a light center).She told me that she had it documented in her notes.When I saw my flowers that morning,I noticed they were not right--they had light centers.Because flowers are an added touch to the wedding day, I did not make a big scene the day of my wedding.I called Sidnee a few days after my wedding to express my concern,and she told me that she was not able to get the same shade of red gerber daisies from her two suppliers.The one supplier who had dark centers didn’t have enough of the correct shade to complete all my wedding flowers. Therefore,she decided to go through the supplier of light centers because they had enough to complete all of my wedding needs.I wish she would have informed me of this so I knew prior to my wedding day and perhaps we could have discussed other options due to the limited supply.I also would have liked to have seen photos of my bouquets prior to the day of my wedding.My bouquet did not look as I had envisioned it(or like the photo I had shown her).However, most people never knew the difference,and everyone I mentioned it to thought the flowers looked beautiful.I definitely had lots of compliments on how beautiful my flowers and reception hall were,so it was a small detail that was missed.

    Poor experience

    The original flowers I wanted (planned 2 years ahead) she couldn’t get the week before my wedding. I had to change my vision with limited options. We came to an agreement on a second arrangement type with pink and white roses- somehow I got orange. Super disappointed and very, very sad. You don’t get a redo. Don’t make the same mistake as me. I attached a photo of my second choice flowers and what I got. NOT worth 2k+

    Thyme Hill Designs's reply:

    Your "original" flowers were some pictures of white flowers and greenery (bridal bouquet) and smaller varied bouquets with shades of dusty rose and taupe and ivory. I quoted those bouquets on June 2020 to you. You sent your deposit and contract back on July 31st, 2020. We did not speak again until July 8th 2021 (almost a year later) when you were requesting a meeting to go over the flowers. We were not able to connect and I asked in you in my email dated July 9th 2021 if you were going with the same florals as your original pictures, I asked if you had any new ideas to please send them to me. You did not send anything until July 28th with ALL NEW DESIGNS AND COLORS. Toffee and Ivory, no pink what so ever. I did not change anything Tori....YOU made the change! I emailed you immediately with questions and did not hear back from you for another 2 1/2 weeks. By this time we're only 5 weeks away from your wedding and we needed to nail down choices ASAP due to the flower shortages we have been experiencing this year. I found out on September 9th that we would not be able to secure toffee roses for you so we planned to use some natural elements in the same color and add more of the sahara roses in. I was able at the last minute to secure some roses that most definitely were NOT orange but a rust/brown shade and added a few where we could to bring in the original shade you were looking for. I am sorry that you were so disappointed in everything Tori. I truly did everything in my power along with my suppliers to try and get you what you wanted with less than a month to go before the wedding. I've also included pictures and I stand by the work that we did for you Tori.
