    Life saver!

    Westwood is AMAZING! Though they were not our original florist, the day-of our wedding my bouquet arrived and was nothing like I had wanted. My aunt quickly took it to Westwood, they made me an entire new bouquet within 15 minutes while they were already working on another wedding! They are great people, I am so greatful for their help and would definitely recommend them for any wedding!

    Beautiful flowers, great people to work with!

    We worked with Thompson's Westwood Florist for both our small, socially distanced "COVID wedding" and for our larger vow renewal and reception 1 year later. Tammy and her team were great to work with, and incredibly flexible when our plans had to change with our "first" wedding due to COVID. The flowers fit my vision perfectly, and I'll treasure the what they added to our events in the photos for years to come. I was a little overwhelmed budget-wise when having to choose flowers again for our second event, and Tammy was very understanding and made it easy to figure out what changes could to made to accommodate our budget. On the days themselves, delivery of the flowers was on time, and they had no problem making deliveries to multiple locations. Made it so I didn't have to worry about anything! Thanks so much Tammy and the Thompson's Westwood Florist team!

    Stress free!

    I walked in to Thompson's - Westwood Florist today stressed about price and where to get flowers for my June wedding. I was greeted immediately and they were so accommodating to my needs and put me at complete ease. The process was so quick and simple, I still can't believe it. They made me feel so relaxed and I know the end result will be beautiful! Thank you so much for helping me and making the entire process easy and affordable!

    Highly Recommend!

    Thompson’s Westwood went above and beyond for my wedding! I came by their shop 30 minutes prior to closing to see if they could help with my wedding that was less than two weeks away. Grace stayed late to help me figure out everything I needed. She was so awesome to work with. Everything they did was phenomenal and I could not have asked for anything more. I received so many compliments from my guests. I highly recommend them!

    Tammy is amazing at calming people who come in her shop! She makes amazing arrangements, delivered to the venue and truly helps keep stress to a minimum. One of the wonderful people we met on this journey!

    Amazing everything. Made the vision of our day come to life.

    I am late in writing this review but now, one year later, I want to share how amazing it was to work with Tammy. I came to Tammy with a Pinterest board of ideas on making my wedding a beautiful fall theme. She sat with me (and both my mother and MIL who can both be, a lot) and was immediately on board. I could tell she got what I was going for and could bring my vision to life without much guidance from me, since I really don't know much about flowers. And she really did that. But she also went WAY above and beyond. She didn't just do flowers. She incorporated decor we had brought, offered her own suggestions, was super communicative, and made my wedding absolutely gorgeous. In the end, the flowers and decor were definitely my favorite part of our wedding (besides my husband of course :) ). I don't think I'm even doing her justice in this review so please review the photos as I think they speak for themselves. All of this was Tammy. Please hire her. You won't regret it. If you'd like to talk to me personally or view more photos I'm more than happy to do so. Ask Tammy to message me on instagram (Samantha Burkhalter fka Henry) for my contact info.

    Beautiful!

    Thompson’s Westwood was so easy to work with. We came up with a budget together and I told Tammy my color pallet and she did the rest. The flowers were delivered day of and looked and smelled amazing.

    Fantastic and beautiful

    Tammy is phenomenal and if I were to do it over again I would use her in a heartbeat. She listened and did a beautiful job. I wish I could keep all of the arrangements forever.

    Amazing to work with Tammy. Despite planning my wedding in a different time zone she kept in touch to make sure all of my order was correct. I requested some very unique flowers not usually in season, and this shop delivered! The archway decor was better than I imagined, and my bouquet was perfect. Support this local business that does good work!

    Tammy and the team did a great job on the flowers for my wedding. I gave Tammy my budget and she made magic happen! My bouquet was BEAUTIFUL (as were the rest of the flowers). I would absolutely recommend Thompson's Westwood for your wedding day!

    Tammy and the entire team at Westwood were amazing to work with! They are all so sweet and helpful. I absolutely loved my flowers. They tied my wedding together so perfectly and I was truly shocked at how beautiful everything was. Tammy was so patient with me and so so easy to get my point across to, without me even knowing exactly what I wanted myself. I did spend a lot of money on my flowers and was nervous about that until I saw my flowers. They were 100% perfect and exactly what I envisioned.

    I had such a great experience working with Tammy on my wedding flowers! I went into the initial consultation so overwhelmed and I had no idea what I wanted (and honestly wasn't excited to spend money on flowers since it initially wasn't very important to me), but she helped organize it perfectly and didn't pressure me at all to commit to more than we could afford. She even helped us out with the price of the bridal bouquet by downsizing it a little. I saw some reviews saying there was no difference between bridesmaid and bridal bouquets, and I kind of saw that in my own flowers too, but I requested the smaller bridal bouquet in the first place and Tammy still made sure that it was full of more roses and more greens so that it stood out.

    Tammy also went above and beyond by delivering our flowers to our hotel for the bridal party AND to the venue right afterward. All the bouquets, centerpieces, and all the smaller flower pieces turned out SO beautifully and with no hiccups whatsoever, so obviously I'd recommend Thompson Westwood Florist to any couple looking for amazing and comparatively affordable flowers on their wedding day!

    Absolutely wonderful to work with these ladies. Flowers were not my biggest priority on the wedding day. I had no clue what I was doing, but Tammy took the time to get to know my wedding and used my favorite pins from Pinterest. She made my bouquet exactly what I never knew I was looking for. They let me use my own decorated mason jars for centerpieces and even created a dog collar for me to match my bouquet. I never inquired about the flowers before they were delivered, but I liked the surprise of seeing where she would take my ideas. They were SO responsive in comparison to other vendors I worked with.

    Super easy to work with. My flowers were beautiful. I saw another review that the bridal bouquet was small. That wasn't my experience. My bouquet was big and beautiful. Definitely recommend them

    Westwood Florist, and specifically Tara, were wonderful to work with. The beautiful fall flowers we had at our wedding were, as I said, beautiful and exactly what I wanted. My bouquet was gorgeous, and the fresh flowers for our cake made it absolutely stunning. Would definitely recommend for a wedding!

    I really enjoyed working with Tara. She always answered my questions if I just randomly had one and called her on the spot, and she never hesitated to make time for me. That being said, I am not a flower kind of girl. I am very, very girly but I am not into flowers so, if I could have had a wedding without them I would have. Also, what we paid for what we received was more than reasonable, Tara was significantly cheaper than many other florists. One thing in particular that I did want was a an aisle petal design. I sent Tara the picture of what I wanted and she did an AMAZING job!!!! I honestly don't think that I've ever seen anything so gorgeous, with flowers at that! I was also pleasantly surprised to find our that I was the bride to have a aisle petal design at my venue! I did expect my bouquet to be a bit larger than it was, but again I'm not really "in to" flowers so it wasn't a huge deal. Overall, great price and nice to work with.

    Westwood was very easy to work with. I set up an appointment to discuss flowers for our wedding and Tara listened to what I had in mind and suggested flowers where I didn't have a definitive plan. My husband expected to pay 2x the actual cost and the arrangements, boutonnieres, and corsages were very well done.

    Wedding flowers were an area that I wasn't too concerned about while planning my wedding. I figured flowers were just flowers and anyone could make it work. After getting some outrageous quotes and meeting with some very stubborn florists I finally came across Westwood and met with Tara. She got my vision immediately! And the pricing was reasonable! Tara was completely willing to work with me and even agreed to use all of the jars and vases I had been collecting for centerpieces. It is difficult to see a final product when certain flowers are only available at certain times, so I never saw anything really completed until the day of my wedding. I had confidence in Tara though and I just knew that she would create what I was picturing. She even agreed to make a flower collar for my dog last minute! I could not believe the beauty of the final products!!! Tara's attention to detail and creativity was just out of this world. Tara and her team accomplished getting all of my centerpieces and ceremony flowers set up with bouquets and boutonnieres delivered within hours before my big day began! They were practically in and out without a hello or goodbye, but that just shows how efficient they are! I can't thank Tara enough for her amazing work and dedication. Everyone raved about my flowers and I didn't even care about them in the beginning! I am so grateful!!!

    I used this florist for our wedding (april 26, 2014). They did the girls and guys flowers. They lasted all day and I still have my flowers looking perfect in my window seal at our house. I spray painted the babys breath black to match my colors and sprayed silver gliter on everything to make them pop! Everyone loved the flowers and most girls still have their flowers today (April 30, 2014)!

    Heaven Scent Florist was a perfect choice for our ceremony and wedding reception. The flowers were gorgeous, the colors all matched perfect and made for great photo ops. They had all the right answers to the numerous questions that we had and made us feel very confident in their ability to make this a seemless process. Thank you, Heaven Scent Florist!

    The flowers for the wedding were just perfect. All the floral arrangements we wanted were more Beautiful than we imagined and were exactly what we wanted. The floral staff was very good with working with the budget we had and giving us the best and most beautiful flowers for our wedding day. Westwood Heaven Scent Florist can be trusted from the very basic wrapped flowers to the most expensive array of flowers and the biggest event. I highly recommend Westwood Heaven for any reason someone needs flowers and especially any special event including weddings.
