    Urban garden - so incredible

    I could go on and on and on about how sweet and amazing Emily is. When we met her for the consultation, I honestly wanted to sit and talk with her all day! It felt like I'd known her FOREVER.

    Emily 100% understood my vision and brought it to life, and brought the lush elegance I was looking for. LOOK AT THE HANGING ARCH. I mean, COME ON!!!! IT'S AMAZING.

    Book Emily if you want a kind soul with absolutely beautiful creative design and execution.

    Dream come true!

    Emily is a fabulous florist! I hadn’t really thought about flowers up until I was planning my wedding so I had no idea what I wanted but I also tend to be picky. I commend you, Emily, for handling me and all the changes in orders we made as my taste in flowers evolved over the last year. She listened carefully to what I wanted and made appropriate suggestions based on her experience. She made sure to outline any changes in the contract using very specific language so that I had no doubt in her understanding of my vision. Also, her prices were fantastic!

    So gorgoeous and unique

    Emily blew me away with how much she was able to beautify our wedding venue with minimal arrangements. We didn’t do centerpieces to save money and I really wish we had, they would have been prettier and probably more cost effective!! And she did so amazing on all of our bouquets. Mine was a little heavy, but she made it so beautiful I was super happy with it! I definitely recommend Urban Garden Floral!

    Amazing! The most beautiful flowers!


    I didn’t get the privilege of meeting Emily - as I planned my wedding from out of state- which makes her 5/5 review even more impressive!!! BOOK HER NOW!!!

    From day one, she was quick to respond via email (crucial for me planning from out of state), exceptionally helpful on the phone, and was a mind-reader when it came to helping me nail down my look. She was able to help me figure out the perfect arrangement of flowers we wanted on our big day- while staying within budget.

    She was so flexible with my tricky out-of-town schedule, and went above and beyond to make my sample center piece available to me on short notice— which turned out AMAZING by the way. She was truly able to create beautiful arrangements from only speaking with me a handful of times, and a couple of Pinterest photos.

    When it came to the day of the wedding- she was sooooo accommodating with our locations- and her assistant was professional and on time. Brides: on your special day you will likely be so out of your mind crazy that the last thing you need is to worry about small details. Her products are not something that you need to worry about all - what a relief!

    Working with Emily and her team was a joy- it can be a bit nerve wracking to show up to your wedding where you have not seen the entire layout prior to the start, but she will not disappointment! I was blown away by her gorgeous arrangements. From my bridesmaids bouquets, boutonnières, center pieces to alter-- everything was exceptional. I have received multiple compliments on her beautiful work!

    I am so thankful that I listened to my instincts and her reviews when selecting to work with Urban garden floral. Emily and her team were able to capture our vision perfectly- and truly provided a flawless service. I would highly recommend her service to anyone.

    EMILY- thank you for your behind the scene service on our special day. I look forward to working with you (and meeting you) when we move back to San Diego for future events! :)

    Wedding dreams came true!

    All I can say is WOW!! At our first meeting, Emily understood exactly what I wanted and quoted me under budget. I hired her immediately and I don’t regret that decision at all! I had a few add ons to my order and she handled it all perfectly. And on our wedding day, when my bouquet arrived my mouth dropped. Her work was all I had dreamed only and more! Stunning!! It was my favorite part of the wedding day “look”!!! She also added on some blooms to areas (welcome table, pew markers) that was a surprise and were so special. Thank you Emily and team for making my wedding flower dreams come true!!!

    Thank you for your sweet, review, Diana! It was such a pleasure working with you and I'm thrilled that you loved your flowers. Congrats!!

    Gorgeous flowers

    Emily is amazing! She is so easy to work with, goes above and beyond for her clients, and her work is absolutely stunning. I adored the flowers at my wedding and it is all thanks to Emily! Everything looked exactly how I wanted it and there were no issues!

    Thank you for your kind words, Paige! It was such a pleasure to work with you and I had so much fun with your beautiful, bright colors! Gorgeous Photos! Congrats!

    My flowers were gorgeous! My favorite thing was our arch! The prices seemed really reasonable, although I didn’t shop around too much. We needed bouquets, corsages, as well as centerpieces and boutonnières, and a flower crown. Emily was really easy to work with and understood exactly what I wanted. I’m so happy I went with this company for our flowers!

    Emily was great to work with! She was so informative in helping us decide what kind of flowers to get. We sent her our general ideas and she was able to envision the perfect arrangement! The bouquets were honestly the MOST BEAUTIFUL we had ever seen. The bridal bouquet was INCREDIBLE, and the flower girl crowns were the most adorable things you would ever see. Emily set up everything on the day of our wedding and was helpful in making sure that everyone in the bridal party had everything they needed. She also did everything we asked for within our budget and did not attempt to upsell us or raise the price. You will love contracting Urban Floral Garden for your wedding!

    Emily is the BEST! We chose her to create centerpieces and personal flowers for our wedding. She took inspiration from our invitations and favorite colors to create a beautiful rainbow hombre effect using succulents for centerpieces in dark wood boxes - very beautiful and modern! My bouquet used the same succulents and flowers as the centerpieces, but were mixed into gorgeous burst of color. Emily's work is one-of-a-kind and we definitely recommend her!

    Emily was great! I had struggled finding a florist who was understanding what exactly I wanted for flowers and that was also in my price range. I actually found Emily because I was visiting my venue with my fiance and our parents and she was setting up flowers for another wedding that day. The flowers she was setting up were pretty much exactly what I was envisioning. I got her business card and we got in contact that next week. Emily was super great to work with and totally knows what she is doing. Flowers are never cheap but Emily's prices were reasonable and totally works with you on price and different ideas to reuse flowers from the ceremony to the reception. She also brought these really pretty gold painted lanterns as well and her and her assistant did the entire set up for the flowers for both the reception and ceremony. I highly recommend using Emily, she completely captured the look I was going for and the flowers were beautiful and my bouquet lasted a long time.

    Emily is... just amazing. She went WAY above and beyond my expectations for our floral arrangements. I met with her many, many, many months before my wedding and brought lots of pictures of my ideas/thoughts. She also had a questionnaire that helped make sure we were both on the same page. Throughout the planning, I had a few changes here and there - her responsiveness to my emails were very quick and she updated the contract in the snap of a finger! I chose not to get mockups of my center pieces or bouquets, and I am SOOO happy I didn't. I will always remember the moment she arrived at the hotel the day of the wedding to drop off the bouquets. When she placed them all down on the table, I was the happiest bride you ever will see. :) I am still so in love with my bouquet and wish I could have kept it forever and ever. THANK you, Emily!!! :-)

    Emily from Urban Garden Floral was great to work with when planning our wedding. Our wedding planner provided us with multiple referrals and once we met with Emily, we knew we were in great hands. She is very easy to work with, incredibly flexible, and her arrangements were incredible. As the groom, meeting with the florist was one meeting that I felt I did not need to be at as I had little to no opinion in regard to the floral arrangements. After discussing various colors and flowers I felt even more lost but trusted Emily's vision and she exceeded our expectations. After seeing my beautiful bride for the first time, the next thing that stood out to me was her bouquet. Emily's work was absolutely incredible. She created exactly what we had hoped for and made things easy and worry-free in the process. If you are searching for a florist for your special day, take the time to meet with Emily and Urban Garden Floral, it will be time well spent.

    Emily from Urban Floral & Garden was a joy to work with, and so easy going. When we met, I told her my ideas for flowers, what our colors were, and the overall feel of the wedding would be "Old Hollywood." She was more than happy to offer suggestions and ideas that would create the look I had envisioned, but also stay within our budget. We communicated often during the months of planning, and every step of the process was completely stress free. A couple weeks before the wedding she put together a sample centerpiece, which was a great way to see the variety and colors of flowers, and gave us a chance to make any necessary changes. When the Big Day arrived, Emily came to the venue with all of our arrangements, and I can honestly say that our flowers were GORGEOUS. I was absolutely blown away. From the floral display on our arch, to the centerpieces, to the boutonnieres, to the corsages, and all of the bouquets... every piece that she put together was stunning. There were details added to the decor (like rhinestones inside the orchids of my bouquet) that I never would have even thought about, but added even more elegance and glamor to such a wonderful day. Thank you, Emily, for putting a huge smile on this bride's face, and for being a part of such a beautiful and memorable occasion.

    I wish I could give Emily 5 stars because she was great in so many ways. She was easy to talk to, available, seemed to get our vision, and reassuring. She created some beautiful pieces for our wedding that I have gotten lots of compliments on, like my bouquet.

    However, there were other main elements that she did not deliver on which were very important to me as I saw my wedding day. While meeting with Emily originally, we spent a lot of time talking about one of the centerpieces we chose and even brought down examples of the materials we were looking for since we saw lots of examples of what we did NOT want. I was very clear about my expectation for this piece, as well as the importance of it. I even went so far as to offer to buy all the needed supplies so we could be sure they would look like what I wanted. Emily did some research and assured us that she would be able to recreate the image using similar materials to what we showed her during our meeting. Because she seemed to understand the vision and had asked her sources about getting what was needed, I trusted her. BIG MISTAKE!

    When I shared my disappointment with her after the wedding (she was already gone from the venue by the time I had arrived), she responded by telling me she felt she did a good job and was surprised by my reaction. She never acknowledged the difference, though everyone I show pictures to of the inspiration and the actual product - they say things like "oh" and "sorry." Had this centerpiece not been what my wedding decor was built around I would be able to let it go, but it was which made what I got so disappointing and embarrassing.
