Merkels Floral Studio 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $10,000
  • Serves Avon Lake, OH

Founded in 1940, when we say we have decades of experience, we really mean it. Since then our love for flowers and our team has only grown. Day to day you can catch us designing floral arrangements and delivering them by the truck full. We source locally whenever possible (of course). We especially love weddings and just adore our brides. Aside from that, we are probably spending any other spare time cheering on fellow entrepreneurs and our favorite vendors of this industry. We love to pour back into our city by supporting local events, schools, and the animal shelter. And we could go on of course, but there is a word limit :)

When I first got engaged I knew immediately that I wanted Kristin and her team at Merkels to be our florist. Kristin's attention to detail, willingness to try anything, and overall easy-going personality made the entire planning process with her so smooth. When we sat down to discuss the vision I had for my wedding I told her I was thinking blues, purples, whites, and I wanted the entire place to give off a coastal Italian vibe - which I was positive made no sense, but Kristin was the biggest yes-woman. She immediately understood what I wanted and was so helpful when sitting down to discuss what I was thinking for the wedding. On top of this, she was incredibly conscious of our budget and worked with me to make sure I got everything I wanted within my price range! Another thing I never got to compliment on was her memory & attention to details; I had asked for Dahlias and Peonies in my bouquet if possible - knowing it was probably not going to happen as they weren't in season ... BUT SHE GOT THEM which I did not expect at all. From our altar and signage, to the centerpieces and bouquets, Kristin and her team exceeded my expectations by 1000%. I would not change a single thing. Kristin, we love you so much, and cannot thank you enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot even put in to words how thankful I am that we had Tyson as our DJ at our wedding!! Our day was absolutely perfect and a large part of that was due to Tyson’s organization, creativity and fun spirit. We have not stopped receiving messages asking who our DJ was and for his contact information because he was just THAT GOOD!!! The dance floor was so crowded and not a single guest left early because Tyson curated the most perfect party through music. He kindly listened to all of our silly requests for song choices and also was able to gauge the crowd for what music they enjoyed. There was not a single song played that the whole room wasn’t dancing to and I was afraid to leave the dance floor to get dessert or a drink for fear of missing out on whatever the next song was about to be. If you are even thinking about using Tyson to DJ your event, do not hesitate. It was the best decision we made!!

We saw Follow the Sun at a friend's wedding in Cleveland and had SO much fun on the dance floor that we hired FTS for our own out-of-state wedding! They easily navigating planning with us- even for an out of town wedding- and even provided valuable insights on the flow of the day. Their acoustic trio played beautifully for our ceremony and the band rocked it for the reception. They are extremely talented singers and musicians and play a variety of songs- EVERY SONG IS SO GOOD- they will keep you and your guests on the dance floor all night long! They have fun and are flexible to last minute changes. They are organized- sound and lighting were ideal- and know how to make your special day extra fun. Our guests (and vendors) are STILL raving about how amazing this band was and we can't wait to see them again! Highly recommend this band for your wedding or other special event! :)

Livia and the team at Orchard Hills were professional, dynamic, had amazing input planning wise and were a wealth of knowledge. The time between engagement and our wedding was 10 months and it would have been so much more stressful without Livia. She was my rock and I never felt the need to worry with her in my corner. She's extremely dedicated and organized. The team itself day of is efficient and so, so kind. I loved having my wedding here, due to the staff and how beautiful the grounds are. Plenty of room to get ready for both the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Having our reception hall in the same location as the ceremony made life so easy. And in my opinion, this was so most gorgeous location for an outdoor wedding. I felt like a fairytale princess all day. No regrets at all, I highly recommend at least touring the location and meeting with Livia!

Awarded Best of Zola
It took me months to come up with the words to describe our experience with the Gemini girls because perfection just didn't seem like enough. From day one these ladies were not only easy to communicate with, but even better, they were so much freaking fun. We never had an encounter that wasn't filled with laughter and genuine friendship. And while they got down to business when they arrived on the day of the wedding, they were still full of energy that every single one of us fed off of. When things started to veer off schedule, they always got things back to running smoothly. And when I panicked because I didn't have my vows for my first look, Nichole calmly reminded me that I was going to see my dad first and didn't need my vows yet (oops, lol). As if having them around on our perfect day wasn't enough itself, they are also incredibly talented, have an amazing eye and provided us with the most stunning pictures that we will cherish forever. If you want top tier photos of your wedding day while working with a team that is fun and down to earth but will work their butts off for you.. these are your girls. Sandra, Nicole and Amanda.. we love you and can't thank you enough.

Whitehall Columbia was the perfect venue for our wedding! The communication with their event coordinator, Julia, was always easy, fast, and professional which made the wedding planning and day everything we have always wanted. The venue itself is beautiful, clean, and classy - perfect for a wedding. The chapel has gorgeous chandeliers, massive windows, and great natural light. Their staff was attentive and made sure everything ran smoothly on our big day. I cannot thank Julia enough. Without her, the whole wedding wouldn’t have been exactly what we dreamed of. My husband and I have talked about the day over and over again. Nothing could’ve been better. For the quality of the venue and service, Whitehall Columbia offered insane value.

In brief, we cannot recommend Meadow Ridge highly enough--the venue is beautiful and unique, but more than that, working with Seneca and her team is a pure joy! They are organized, thoughtful, responsive, and caring. They make you feel like family from the first time you meet and the investment in the success of your wedding day is incredible. Lastly, I was nervous planning a multicultural event with integration of Indian and American wedding traditions in rural Ohio and all our requests and details pertaining to Indian cultural aspects were beautifully integrated into the wedding day! It is clear that hosting excellent and memorable weddings is a proud commitment for the Meadow Ridge team, not just a job they have. Venue: large, beautiful outdoor venue with a covered pavilion. To quote our friend, "I've been to a lot of barn weddings, yours was not a farm wedding, it was a fairytale." The flowers were stunning, the grass was lush, the pond lined with reeds and tall grassed, the sunset was out of a painting. There is a new patio in the larger pavilion which we used as our dance floor, so our guests danced the night away under the stars. The photography team Suzuran has stunning pictures of Meadow Ridge across several seasons! Communication/Planning: Seamless communication with the team, Seneca was always easy to reach and responsive, answering our infinity questions meticulously and graciously adjusting her plans when we had to change ours. Service: So thoughtful and caring, we and our guests were blown away! For instance, the bartenders kept track of what drinks we had as the bride and the groom and came to find us with refills. One of the servers brought over tissues when my parents and I started crying before walking down the aisle. As we mentioned, the integration of elements of Indian culture was phenomenal--Seneca was receptive from our first conversation and worked hard to make our hopes a reality. Having our wedding at Meadow Ridge was an absolute privilege and the success of the day is fully reflective of the incredible team we got to work with--we are just so grateful!

Hello! My name is Justine and I'm a professional makeup artist servicing Northeast Ohio. I specialize in bridal beauty but also work fashion shows, photography shoots, and provide 1:1 and group makeup lessons. Makeup artistry is a passion of mine that I've had since I was a child. Back then, makeup was just for fun. Now, it is my way of helping women find their inner and outer beauty. I believe that makeup doesn't have to hide your features. It should instead, be used to help you fall in love with the parts of yourself that you forgot existed. I'm here to make you feel your absolute best on your wedding day and each day forward!

I truly loved every moment working with Justine! She replied almost instantly to my inquiry, was very flexible in setting up our trial run, and we got along instantly! I had absolutely no idea what kind of look I wanted for my wedding, so I was very impressed that she picked up on "my vibe" immediately and created a gorgeous glam look right off the bat. We set up a second trial run to try a more demure, natural look to give me options and make sure I was 100% satisfied. Justine was EXTREMELY open to working with me to tweak this or that, and we essentially combined the two trail looks for the day-of and I am so glad we did! On the morning of the wedding, I was a tinsy bit frantic, but once I sat in the chair, she made me feel so calm and relaxed--it truly was the exact experience I hoped for. The final look made me feel both glamorous and ethereal at our winter elopement. Justine even gave me a small touch up kit just in case, but everything lasted so long, I didn't even need it. I look forward to working with her in the future when I have another event to go too.

Hey there! We're Colleen and Amanda of Wild Embers Photography (formerly Rustic Light Photography). We are committed to ensuring you have the best experience ever that reflects your raw, unique, and wild love. We want to capture the wholly and unique YOU. We're your gals if you're into candid moments, raw emotion, and embracing spontaneity.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Wild Embers for both our engagement and wedding photos. Colleen and Amanda are not only incredibly talented photographers, but also just genuinely cool, kind people who made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera — no small feat for two people who don’t love being the center of attention! Their artistic eye and attention to detail are phenomenal. The editing is gorgeous — a thoughtful blend of timeless black-and-whites and bold, vibrant color palettes. Our fall engagement session and colorful wedding each had very different vibes, and they nailed both. The photos pop in the best possible way, and honestly… we didn’t think we could look this good! We’re based in Columbus and paid a bit extra to bring them in (hotel and travel), but even with that, the cost was still better than many other vendors we talked to — and absolutely worth every penny. They also made sure to capture the specific shots we asked for, which we really appreciated. We can't recommend Wild Embers enough. We'll definitely be reaching out again for any future milestone moments — anniversaries, maybe even family shoots down the line. Just a fantastic experience all around.

My pieces are one of a kind, handmade porcelain and stoneware floral designs. I create Calla lilies, roses, billy buttons, poppies, and various other botanical forms. I always say that my favorite art mimics nature, and that is the reason why I create these unique nature inspired pieces.

Botanica Ceramics creates beautiful ceramic flowers and flower arrangements that are one of a kind works of art. Mine is an arrangement of Calla lillies and a gorgeous curved leaf. The detail is exquisite and the unique vase sets it off perfectly. I love it!!!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Faux Stems! Working with Lily was an absolute dream come true for my wedding. The floral arrangements were beyond stunning — she completely crushed my floral vision and turned it into something breathtaking. From the moment I started working with her, Lily was an absolute joy. Not only was she incredibly professional and timely, but she was also so sweet and a total cutie to work with! The quality of the faux flowers she provided was unbelievable. They looked so real and luxurious, and the best part? They didn’t break the bank! The arrangements were flawless and gave off that high-end, expensive vibe without the price tag. Honestly, her work speaks for itself, and I’m so thankful to have had Lily make my wedding floral dreams come true.
