Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we met Jayelyn, we felt seen, understood, and inspired. She didn’t just design arrangements; she crafted an atmosphere. Every petal, every color tone, every scent felt intentional — soft, romantic, and luxurious without ever feeling overdone. The team built us a floral installation that smelled like a garden at sunrise — fragrant, ethereal, and full of life. Guests were literally taking photos with the arrangements because they couldn’t believe they were real! What impressed me most was the heart behind everything. Jayelyn checked in, asked about our story, and even customized the bouquet with blooms that symbolized my grandmother’s favorite flower. That kind of emotional care is rare. If you’re looking for more than just flowers — if you want your event to feel like an experience — Floral Eden is the one. Every bloom tells a story, and ours was unforgettable."

Woodland Floral Design Co. 

5.0

  • Serves Clarksboro, NJ

Proud Cat & Dog Mom // Your New Wedding Vendor BFF It’s never been just about pretty flowers to me. I started out in social work because I wanted to serve and connect with others. I first entered the floral design world as an intern in 2016 and noticed a lack of originality in designs and a need for more connection between the florist and the couple. When I started WFD in 2019, I decided to prioritize both artistic designs and building long-term relationships with each couple. Planning my own wedding in 2021 gave me an even deeper appreciation for the importance of receiving creative expertise and genuine support from wedding vendors.

Awarded Best of Zola
Woodland Floral Design Co. was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Misha and her team demonstrated a true gift for understanding exactly what we wanted, even when we weren't always sure ourselves. Her calming presence and mind-reader-like intuition put us at ease throughout the planning process. On the day of the wedding, the floral arrangements and decor they created were nothing short of once-in-a-lifetime magic - our wildest dreams come to life. Every single detail and more was perfectly executed, and Misha even went above and beyond to coordinate with our other vendors to ensure the day was seamless. If you're looking for a florist with God-given talent, look no further than Woodland Floral Design Co. Just go to my Google review, because 500 words will never be enough to describe Misha's incredible abilities. When all your guests just wanna take pics in front of your flowers- you know it’s perfect. I still can’t get over the hair accessories she made me…

Believe it or not, we often have people ask if our pictures throughout our website are showing a mix of fresh and faux and…no they aren’t! Although fresh florals are pretty, we are totally in love with poser-blooms all the way here and that’s what we design 100% of our orders with.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the absolute best experience with The Faux Bouquets. The flowers were absolutely stunning for my wedding. The owner, Brittany, was so kind and even called me to make sure my wedding wouldn't be affected by Hurricane Helene. Thankfully, my area was not affected, but I just really felt that was a special kindness that needs to be called out. But again, the quality of the bouquets, micro sprays and greenery was so great and photographed so well! And all at a fraction of the cost of real flowers that would have just been thrown away at the end of the night! The delivery and return process couldn't have been simpler! And I loved my husband and I got to customize and keep my bouquet and his boutonniere during a promotional add-on! Thank you again, Brittany and The Faux Bouquets, for helping make our wedding so beautiful!

Isabel truly exceeded expectations. I knew next to nothing about flowers going into this experience. When Isabel presented the initial inspiration design board for the wedding, I made a couple of comments of things I liked and did not like. Isabel took all that feedback, and some inspiration photos I emailed her, and truly made the most beautiful wedding flowers in the world! She was also very fun, professional, and low stress, which enabled me to feel comfortable providing the initial comments and getting the flowers of my dreams for the actual wedding day. Isabel also added fun fruit and candles to the the table, creating an experience my guests are still discussing to this day.

Blossom and Bee were one of the approved vendors on our venue's list. It was an easy process working with Penny and her team. I was able to pin inspo pictures on a Pinterest board as well as share pictures of my dress, my husband's tux, and our wedding invitation suite. As a bride of Indian origin, I wanted bright spring florals that also complimented the industrial/French look of our venue. I was overwhelmed by the number of color combinations I was interested in and the team helped me narrow down to the best color scheme. Something to note is that you will need to provide bud vases and rent floral stands from B&B if that is something you want in your decor. Luckily my venue provided a moon gate that could be used for the ceremony, and the venue staff repurposed the florals from the ceremony to the sweetheart table.
