I cannot say enough good things about Nicole and her team! She was the only vendor we met with that was completely transparent with her pricing, and for my first zoom call with her she put together a slide deck with some sample flower arrangements based on a conversation we had over the phone. I was absolutely blown away by the service ad execution and really can't recommend her enough!

Maple Field Floral came through in the worst of times! In the middle of the pandemic lockdown, they made floral arrangements, bouquets, boutonnieres and a beautiful floral arch for our family to celebrate our parents' 50th anniversary with their grandkids. They based the design of off my parents' original wedding flowers. We were able to make memories because of them. I will forever be grateful!

Dean Street Daisies

Hi there! I’m Karina, an architect turned floral designer dabbling in all things daisies and more! My enthusiasm for floristry began in Brooklyn as a way to express my love for nature and design, but mostly so I could bring color, life, and beauty into my apartment on, you guessed it, Dean Street! Now, Dean Street Daisies has blossomed into a full-service floral and event design studio on the Hudson River in Irvington, NY where I live and create in a converted chapel with my husband and two cats!

Dean Street Daisies was a dream to work with for our wedding florals. From the start, Karina was straightforward and considerate in their communication, ensuring we were on the same page every step of the way. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - the beautiful, creative arrangements they put together for our wedding ceremony and reception looked like something out of a magazine. The chuppah and all the fall-inspired florals they set up were simply stunning, exceeding our expectations and leaving our guests in awe. We found Karina through a Reddit recommendation and her pricing was very reasonable compared to other florists we had looked into. We're so grateful to the Dean Street Daisies team for helping make our special day look and feel exactly as we had envisioned. Highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding!

We hired Michelle to design our wedding flowers this past Fall. She did an amazing job! From her first email to the second I saw my bouquet, she was kind, full of creative ideas, and right on our budget. She designed the most beautiful flowers for us that I've ever seen! Everything was perfect. I still get teary eyed thinking about my bouquet and the amazing chuppah. My favorite thing about her is that her studio only books one wedding a weekend. Some florists I was talking to said they do up to 5 in one day! That's crazy. I felt secure knowing that my wedding was the only one that her and her amazing staff were working on. Her attention to detail definitely showed! Hire her, you won't be disappointed.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 
Rating: 4.9 (78 reviews)
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Hawthorne, NY

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
I ordered the "peaches and cream" small package. We decided to skip on ceremony florals, and only have handhelds and bud vases at the reception. We did buy a few more flowers from the grocery to add more peach once the flowers arrived. We made and medium sized bridal bouquet, 4 bridesmaids bouquets, 3 corsages, and 7 bouts. (With lots of flowers left over). My bridesmaids and I did the arranging the morning before the wedding; it was fun, and a great start to the weekend. None of us had experience, but it all turned out great! If you or your bridal party are mildly crafty, I'd highly recommend it!

The granddaughter of two gardeners, I have always felt a connection to the earth through the soil. When someone brings flowers into a room, something changes...an energy, an excitement! I love being able to bring that kind of beauty into peoples lives. I'm a small-town girl who enjoys anything that involves working with my hands from cooking to knitting. I'm a total animal lover (partial to dogs), a die-hard Grey's Anatomy fan, and I take my martinis extra dirty. When I'm not flowering in our studio in Milford, Connecticut, I'm mommin' to three amazing little boys (our dog Pippa and cat, Galaxy).

When I first saw my wedding bouquet I was speechless! It was nothing like any other bouquet I had seen in the absolute best way! The flowers were gorgeous, vibrant, and truly unique, just like I wanted! Kate has such a keen ability to take inspiration photos, run with them, and create something incredibly gorgeous and in line with my vision. The florals she designed brought a lovely pop of color to our reception and pulled the natural look from the landscape into the space exactly like I envisioned. From little details like "snap-bracelet" corsages for the moms to a color-coordinating ribbon on the boutonnieres, Kate totally knocked it out of the park!

From the very first email exchange to the final moments of our wedding day, Lorrie at Style & Vine exceeded every expectation we had. As a bride who values organization and attention to detail, I can confidently say that Lorrie is the essence of professionalism and artistry. Lorrie's communication throughout our 8-month planning process was exceptional. She was incredibly responsive, patient with our questions, and proactive in addressing potential challenges. When we needed to adjust our timeline from noon to 11:00 AM just weeks before the wedding, she graciously accommodated our request without hesitation. Working with our "white classic" theme, Lorrie created beautiful arrangements that perfectly captured our vision. Her centerpieces featuring white hydrangeas, roses, baby's breath, and stock were wonderful. The mix of large arrangements and bud vase clusters created beautiful dimension on our tables. The six chuppah arrangements on varying height pedestals were gorgeous and precisely what we had envisioned. Lorrie demonstrated remarkable flexibility when we made last-minute requests, including providing fresh flowers for our faux cake decoration at no additional cost. She suggested repurposing our chuppah arrangements for the sweetheart table, helping us stay within budget while maintaining the elegant aesthetic we wanted. Her ability to incorporate the bud vases and flameless votives we provided showed her collaborative spirit and creativity. On our wedding day, Lorrie arrived promptly and worked seamlessly with our wedding assistant. Her setup was flawless, and every arrangement was perfectly positioned. The personal flowers - including my bridal bouquet with white garden roses and dahlias, the matron of honor bouquet, boutonnieres, and corsages - were absolutely perfect and photo-ready for our morning family session. Lorrie provided detailed quotes, clear contracts, and transparent pricing throughout the process. She included complimentary votive candles and was upfront about all costs, with no surprise fees. Her pricing was fair for the exceptional quality and service provided. If you're looking for a florist who combines artistic talent with exceptional service, look no further than Lorrie and Style & Vine. She made our dream wedding décor a reality and was an absolute pleasure to work with. We cannot recommend her highly enough! Johanny & David The Juniper at Vanderbilt, Westbury, NY August 16, 2025

First of all - the end product was just beautiful. Everything from the bridal bouquet to the ceremony flowers to the table styling was exquisite and super unique. Shannon did a great job incorporating my favorite color (yellow) and a whimsical, organic wildness into the design exactly as I had hoped. From our first meeting to the written proposal, Shannon interpreted my thoughts and ideas exactly. I was so impressed that she took my ramblings and half ideas and pulled them together into what I was seeing in my head. Shannon’s GORGEOUS color palette informed the entire wedding design and gave me a jumping off point for invitations, bridesmaid dresses, other decor, etc. Unfortunately, the process of working with Shannon was a bit challenging. She struggled with nailing down details: incorrect number of tables, inconsistent accounting of candles/bud vases, etc. It took a number of incorrect proposal drafts until we got it right - just weeks before the wedding. We were honestly quite disappointed by Shannon’s flexibility and communication. She self-describes as being highly collaborative, but that was not our experience. First, as beer nerds, having hops in the design was super important to us, and while she flagged early on it could be an issue to source real ones, we discussed using fake. While we all agreed that she shouldn’t use fake hops if they looked bad, we were sad to see on the day of that they didn’t make it into the design. It would have been nice to have heard a heads up from her that she didn’t plan to use them - even if it was just a brief mention on the day-of. Second, when our cake plans fell through at the last minute, we asked Shannon if she could possibly supply a few flowers for our small 6” cutting cake. She told us she would try, but later we heard from the bakery that she had given them a flat no. She never communicated her decision to us. Thankfully, the bakery pulled something together for us (shout out to Zest Pastry!). Third, the Monday before the wedding, Shannon sent an alarming email with the subject line “Head Advisory, Oh No!”, asking us what our plan was. Getting any email titled “Oh No” isn’t fun to receive less than a week before your wedding. Further, as a trusted wedding vendor, we would hope that she would have plans for weather or unexpected events rather than looking to us during a very stressful period. Lastly, (and most disappointingly) despite having a run of day schedule, Shannon was nowhere to be found when it was time to put on boutonnieres and corsages. Our photographers and party thankfully jumped in to help to avoid major delays to portraits (shout out to Katie Slater!). Fundamentally, the product Shannon provided was beyond compare - everything was beautiful. That said, the communication, coordination, and organization were lacking from our experience.
