We absolutely loved working with Yvonne and YJ Decorating! She worked tirelessly to bring our wedding vision to life and went above and beyond in every way. From the start, she took the time to understand exactly what we wanted, spending many calls with us to make sure every detail was perfect. She sourced beautiful flowers and created stunning arrangements that matched our vision perfectly. The bridal bouquet looked exactly as we had imagined, and the bridesmaid flowers were gorgeous. She also made a lovely entryway display to welcome our guests, which set the tone for the entire celebration. When our outdoor plans changed because of rain, she was incredibly flexible and calm under pressure, allowing us to decide the morning of where to set up. She built our mandap beautifully for our first ceremony, and then completely transformed it into a breathtaking arch for our Western ceremony. The floral flip was seamless and so impressive! We’re so grateful for her creativity, professionalism, and kindness. Everything came together beautifully thanks to her and her team. Highly recommend Yvonne and YJDecorating to anyone looking for a talented and dedicated florist and decorator!

We used Yvonne for our wedding florals this past October and we couldn’t be happier! She was so friendly, responsive, and had a lot of great ideas. She looked at my Pinterest board to get an idea of what I was looking for and made suggestions to make everything look amazing and serve multiple functions from ceremony to reception. She also worked within our budget. She makes sure every detail is covered from candles, votives, ribbon color, etc. My bouquet turned out absolutely gorgeous! I would highly recommend YJ Decorating for florals and decor. Yvonne made me feel so at ease and I never had to stress over florals.

Yvonne at YJ Decorating was absolutely amazing to work with! She was very responsive and communication was fantastic! She helped me throughout the process of picking out florals and was very supportive when I changed my vision after our initial consultation. I appreciated the fact that she invited me in to her studio to go thru different design options and was very transparent on cost. What I appreciated most was her level of understanding and empathy and took time to learn more about me while I was going thru the planning process. Highly recommend!
HIGHLY recommend!

We worked with Yvonne for our wedding florals, and she was absolutely incredible from day one. She is extremely professional, communicative, and genuinely invested in bringing your vision to life. She constantly reminded me that if I had any concerns or wanted to change anything at all, I could reach out to her — she was always there and made me feel so supported throughout the planning process. From our very first consultation, she was incredibly thorough. She looked through my inspiration board with me and asked thoughtful questions to understand exactly what I envisioned. When I visited her studio, she already had a variety of budget-friendly floral displays prepared so we could review options efficiently and easily. Her knowledge of flowers, color combinations, and what pairs beautifully together is truly impressive. She was able to read me so well and made amazing suggestions based on my reactions and comments. Another major highlight was her consciousness of our budget. She went above and beyond to deliver gorgeous flowers — bridal bouquet, centerpieces, bridesmaids bouquets, chuppah florals, and sweetheart table decor — all within our price range, and the quality never suffered for a second. Everything was elegant, vibrant, held up throughout the day, and exactly what we hoped for. Yvonne also made our chuppah extra meaningful. She incorporated my grandfather’s prayer shawl, and even took measurements ahead of time to ensure it draped perfectly on the wedding day. When I saw it all set up, it was so beautiful and special that it brought me to tears. Our wedding was in August, and she was extremely thoughtful about the heat. She took extra steps to make sure the flowers would hold up, and even on the big day she continued to make small adjustments to ensure everything looked perfect from start to finish. On the wedding day, I didn’t feel a single ounce of stress about the florals because I knew Yvonne and her team had it all handled — and they absolutely did. My bridal bouquet was STUNNING and I still get so many compliments on it. The bridesmaids bouquets and table décor were exactly what we discussed — elegant, cohesive, and beyond beautiful. I cannot recommend Yvonne enough. She exceeded every expectation and truly made our floral dreams come to life. If you want someone who is talented, thoughtful, and completely dedicated to making your wedding vision a reality, Yvonne is the florist you want!
