We cannot ever thank Pedestals enough for how beautiful everything turned out for our wedding. Everyone could not stop complimenting the floral arrangements!! It was perfect from bouquets to each centerpiece and our arch. I came to Sandy without a true vision of florals and had no idea what I was doing. She turned my mismatched thoughts into perfection and a dream come true. I had the centerpieces repurposed into bouquets for guests to take home & everyone absolutely loved that they were able to take some of the gorgeous flowers home with them. It was beautiful and perfect but it would not have been that way without our florals from Pedestals!! 2 weeks later and people are STILL telling us they were the most beautiful florals at a wedding!!! You will not be disappointed!

Working with Jacie at Isabella Floral Studio was an absolute dream. From our very first conversation, Jacie was attentive, creative, and genuinely excited to bring our vision to life. She took the time to ask about our preferences and ideas, and when I changed my mind about our original color scheme, she happily adjusted and created new mood boards without hesitation. On the wedding day, the florals were breathtaking. Jacie personally hand-delivered the bouquets for me and my bridesmaids, which was such a special touch. She beautifully decorated the church, cocktail hour, and reception, and every arrangement was stunning. The colors, textures, and overall aesthetic tied everything together so seamlessly and elevated the entire day. Not only was her work gorgeous, but the entire process was completely stress-free.

A wedding will not be complete in the absence of having beautifully arranged flowers. They do not only add color to the event, but they also signal the blossoming of a new life ahead of the couple. In the same way, flowers are important; it is also critical to choose the best Long Island florist to take care of the selection and arrangements. The florist has knowledge on the best wedding flowers New York to use, which will ensure making the right choice. Nonetheless, not all florists are the same in terms of the capabilities. To avoid ruining your wedding with bad flowers,

Hello I’m Kat! The lead florist at Floral Touch. Creating whimsical and bohemian florals are my favorites. Thank you for stopping by to explore my floral business! Hope to be able to work with you to create your dream florals.

Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend Kat to everyone! After looking on her Instagram I immediately knew I wanted her to make my bridal bouquet. I was so surprised at how well priced she was and when it came time for pick up I got way more flowers than I expected. On the day before our arranged pick up my grandmother got sick and was in the hospital. I asked Kat if there was anyway I could pick up the flowers a little earlier so i could go see my grandma. I was amazed when she texted me at 5 AM and she had finished the flowers. Not only is she talented but she's also a very good person. I can't thank her enough for being so accommodating and so kind.

Aster & Fir 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Massapequa, NY

Our founder, Alexandra, left her corporate 9–5 job in search of something more fulfilling. When she ‘stopped & smelled the roses’, she fell in love with flowers. As the daughter of a carpenter, she has always appreciated creating something beautiful with her own hands. She loves capturing each client's unique ideas in her custom designs, bringing their special day to life with her arrangements. Alexandra lives in Astoria with her husband, John, and her cat, Piper, and she never met a rosé she didn’t like.

I knew that booking Alexandra and Aster & Fir was the right move from the moment I laid my eyes on centerpieces created for a friend's bridal shower! The unique floral choices and gorgeous color palette blew me away. I knew immediately that I HAD to have Alexandra and her team design my wedding florals. Working with Alexandra was so easy. She was very responsive and able to decipher my style and vision using the hodgepodge of images I kept adding to my Pinterest board. I knew I was going to love my florals, but nothing prepared me for the beautiful centerpieces, chuppah, and bouquets I recieved. I was blown away by the attention to detail and eye for such stunning flowers. My mother who is an avid gardener and flower snob was in awe of the floral arrangements. She was also moved by Alexandra’s thoughtfulness in adding touches of marigolds throughout centerpieces. I had forgotten to mention the cultural importance of marigolds for my family, but Alexandra had done her research and included them beautifully. It was such an amazing touch and just spoke volumes of how detail-oriented and thoughtful the team at Aster & Fir is. I also loved how flexible Alexandra was. I asked for some last-minute changes and wanted to reuse my florals for brunch the next morning and she was more than happy to accommodate my requests. Not only did I have stunning florals for my reception; but brunch was also transformed by Aster & fir’s stunning creations! Once I finally announced that guests could take home florals, people were scrambling to grab centerpieces and arrangements haha. I received so many compliments on Alexandra’s creations and can’t wait to request her for future parties and celebrations!!!

What they designed was beyond anything we could have imagined—elegant, heartfelt, and filled with the sense of holiness that a Jewish wedding deserves. Standing beneath the chuppah they created felt deeply spiritual, honoring tradition while reflecting our personal style. Every flower throughout the day carried that same care and intention, bringing warmth and beauty to our celebration. Their artistry, professionalism, and heart made our day unforgettable, and we will cherish their work forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
Something Borrowed Blooms provided the most lifelike and luxurious floral arrangements for our wedding day. The bouquets, ceremony pieces and boutonnieres were all incredibly realistic and high quality, with vibrant colors and lush textures that exceeded our expectations. In fact, as my husband and I were taking photos in a park, a bee even tried to pollinate my bouquet, drawn to its beauty and realism. Getting the boxes to the venue did require a bit of coordination, but with a little help from friends we were able to easily box them up the day after the wedding and ship them off via FedEx. We saved easily 2,000 thanks to Something Borrowed and you would never know the flowers were fake.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 
Rating: 4.9 (80 reviews)
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Massapequa, 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
We had a tropical themed wedding and used Flower Moxie for tropical flowers and greenery: bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, ceremony arch flowers. I wish there were more tropical related videos on their DIY Academy, but I did love working with my assigned florist and the help desk was quick in their response. For those who are getting married at the same location that the flowers are being delivered (my parents' home), I wish we would have done all of the floral arrangements the day before instead of 2 days before. And our spray roses came a day later and were a little sad looking. But overall, we were very happy with the service and highly recommend to others!

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!

Working with Jen was wonderful and seamless. She helps you every step of the way to figure out what you would like. The DIY class was so much fun, and we were able to build all of our centerpieces, boutonnières, and bouquets. Jen also built my cascade bouquet and beautiful garland for us!

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.

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.
