Barb was wonderful from the very beginning. She took the colours and style i requested and brought everything to life. We couldnt have been more thrilled with our flowers and got so many compliments on the arrangements. We went a bit unconventual and it turned out perfect! Thank you Barb so much, it was such a joy to have you do our florals.

Tamara, it was also such a joy for me to do your florals! Unconventional can actually be like a 'breath of fresh air' for the designer to create arrangements that are unique to a couple's taste & vision. Your selections certainly did that.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with Blooms & Beyond through your kind words. I sincerely appreciated the opportunity to be a part of your magical day. And I wish you and your sweetheart more happiness than your hearts can hold as husband & wife!

Dear Sandra
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this kind review which has inspired me. It was my delightful pleasure to create your warm, vibrant bouquet & matching boutonniere for your groom. It was actually a treat to send them off to you on my birthday. I just wish I could have presented them to you in person that day. However, I'm grateful that I was able to capture your floral vision to help make your day special! Congratulations on tying the knot with your sweetheart, & the best of wishes to you both as you embark on the adventure of wedded bliss!

Barb was very professional, informative and kind I instantly felt comfortable and confident in her hands. She made sure she had my vision and budget as her top priority. I was so excited for the vision she helped me create for the floral arrangements for my wedding, I couldn't wait to see them! The bouquets and boutonnieres blew me away she did an incredible job. I highly recommend Barb to any future bride

Barb does beautiful work!
I first met Barb at her house to go over everything i wanted in more details, she had everything i needed to see at her house, she gave me ideas and recommendations. I had so mush trust in her with my flowers, i didn't get to see them till i showed up to the venue with just enough time to get out of the car and walk down the isle. I'm in love with them and i cant stop looking at them. perfect amount of colour for my pictures!
Thanks Barb!

Kassandra, how kind of you to take the time to write this review & share some of your beautiful memories. I'm so glad that you entrusted your pretty flowers to my creativity, and it was my pleasure to help you achieve your vision. My one regret is that I was not able to give you your bouquet myself on wedding day. But you all looked fabulous!
Congratulations on tying the knot, & best wishes to you and your adorable family for a wonderful future!

Wonderful experience
Barb was absolutely amazing, her extreme eye for detail coupled with her passion for what she does floods into her work. She was extremely attentive and responsive to me at all times. She took everything I said I wanted and was able to make my vision come to life. It was so great to work with her. I appreciated how much she kept me informed and thought it was so nice that she wanted to hand deliver the flowers and set them up, an amazing personal touch that really indicates how much she really does have a passion for what she does. I would highly recommend her to anyone, I had an amazing experience.
