unfortunate
My now husband and I were very excited to work with Sue as she had amazing reviews online and our venue had worked very closely with her before. She was our first vendor we chose and were confident that everything would look spectacular.
A staff member dropped off our bouquet flowers the morning of the wedding. We paid almost $9k for flowers and decor and they looked a bit…dead. My bridesmaids then took a closer look and saw that almost all the bouquets had flowers that were very brown. I called my coordinator and she got the vendor to come back. She picked off all the dead petals when really, it should have been picked before it got to us. If WE could see they were dying, the girl dropping them off should have too.
We ended up with TONS of dead petals in our bathtub and throughout the day, flowers were falling off everywhere. Now, I 100% understand flowers will deteriorate and fall, etc but these were falling with little to no movement.
I’ve attached pictures for reference and contacted the vendor 3 times about this situation with ZERO response at all - no apology, explanation, nothing — which led me to this review.

Absolutely blown away!
Wow!!!! I cannot even express how blown away we were from Sue & her team. Our florals were absolutely perfect and exactly what I had envisioned. Sue ensured every single detail was beyond perfect.
Finding the right florist was one of our hardest issues when researching. We wanted to ensure we were still getting the vision we wanted but making sure we were within budget.
As soon as we met with Sue we knew that she was our florist! She made the entire process so seamless for us and helped with any and all of our questions. She knew exactly what I wanted and made sure my dream (Pinterest) wedding was exactly what we got.
Leading up the wedding she ensured everything was nice and easy for us! We even added a couple extra pieces and it turned out beautifully.
We were in complete awe of the beautiful centrepieces Sue created and our AHHHHMAZIN-G 32 ft head table garland!
If you go with Sue & her team your wedding florals will be absolutely perfect!
Thank you again!!

Sue and her team helped to make our special day so beautiful. They provided such beautiful florals and decor as well as they set up all of our decor as well. The flowers were stunning and provided such a wonderful back drop at our venue. She was so helpful from our original meeting right thru to the end of our perfect day. all the arrangements were stunning and the bouquets were so lush and beautiful! They do wonderful work! She was also able to bring in decor items such as wonderful linens, napkins and other accessories that just polished up our wedding design. She was so helpful in colour selection as well as floral selection. Thank you for an amazing day!

SGD Was one of the vendors I was very decided on booking from the beginning of my planning process and I was not disappointed! Sue was quick to respond even with last minute requests, and worked with my planner to bring my floral designs/ decor plans to life. I had many people comment on the wedding day with how beautiful the arrangements were, they were stunning. Sue has an ability to create modern arrangements with vintage feel and the florals went great with my decor.

Sue was amazing to work with from start to finish. The first time we met her, we felt so relaxed and at ease. She asked all the right questions to understand exactly what we were looking for and we were blown away by the final results. Our ceremony space at the AGH Design Annex was simple, gorgeous and perfectly complemented the room. The bouquets and boutonnières were fresh and clean, which was exactly what we wanted. The highlight for us was our reception room at the AGH, which was perfection.
Sue is a true talent and we thank her for bringing our vision to life.

I am not sure 5 stars is enough to describe the services of Sue Gallo Designs. We chose to work with Sue as she was one of the recommended vendors for our venue. During our first meeting with Sue, she listened carefully to us and came up with a lovely palette and design concept to match our ideas. During the stressful wedding planning process, it was a huge help knowing that we could rely on Sue for all the major flower and décor elements.
Then, a few weeks before our wedding, we found out that we needed to switch venues. This meant a complete overhaul of the theme and concept for our wedding. Sue was gracious and understanding from the start, and did an incredible job at adjusting to the change in circumstance. In terms of flexibility, she could not be surpassed.
Most importantly, the execution on the day of was absolutely terrific! Sue showed up promptly to deliver flowers to where we were getting ready, and set everything up at both the church and the venue. The flowers were truly splendid; I got a ton of compliments, even from those with the most discriminating tastes.
Sue's work made our wedding beautiful. We highly recommend her services!!

perfection, down to the last detail
Choosing Sue was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. After meeting Sue at our initial consultation we knew that she was the right choice. Sue was able to listen to what we envisioned for our day and make it a reality—just more beautiful than we expected. The flowers and our reception décor were gorgeous; everything was as we had discussed, down to the very last detail. Sue was so supportive during the planning as well, offering helpful suggestions and tips to help make the day as seamless as possible. Sue and her team were professional and easy to communicate with. Sue is one-of-a-kind, not only talented and creative in her vision but a lovely person who honestly cares about you and your day. Thank you Sue, you and your team helped make our wedding day exactly what we wanted, and we could not be happier.
