Florals were such an importance for me when planning the wedding. It was the way I knew my venue and static decor was going to come alive. I knew that Sherry and her team would be able to make my vision a reality from the first meeting! Sherry is the absolute sweetest. From the first meeting we had, I could tell she paid attention to detail, listened to my input, answered my questions with such a patience, and proposed ideas that enhanced what I was looking for. She was on the same page with me the entire way to the wedding. Not only am I so so thankful I went with Willow & Stems for my wedding as a florist, but I am so thankful we ended up doing the flower bar!! My guests absolutely loved it and felt so honoured by getting a corsage, boutonniere or hair pin. It was such an interactive thing to do during the cocktail party as well. Honestly, my guests still talk about how the best part of the wedding was the cocktail hour. Willow & Stems exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend them to anyone!

Better than any of my Pinterest dreams.
I can't begin to express how grateful I am for Sherry and her team of absolute rockstars. I found them at the Wedding Co. show and the second I walked out the door (with a floral hairpiece pulling back my hair from their booth) I sent them an email. Sherry returned my email so swiftly and we met for coffee. She was so attentive to everything I said and politely told me her opinions with honesty but never made me feel like my Pinterest dreams were out of reach.
The florals alone were more magical than I could have ever thought possible (she made this magical backdrop of italian ruskis hanging from a birch pole, created gorgeous wreaths of greenery around each place setting, and don't get me started on the perfection of the bouquetttttts) , but I can't tell you enough how glad we are that we DID THE FLOWER BAR.
If you're thinking about it... DO THE FLOWER BAR.
Guests went NUTS over this and when I bump into people they still tell me what an incredible touch the flower bar was!!!! The incredible thing was that every age demographic and gender found something they loved at the bar. It warmed my heart to see people who had never met bond over the floral hairpieces they had, a great ice breaker for people who don't know many people at the wedding!!!!! Looking back on the photos and seeing everyone with their beautiful hairpieces, headbands, and boutonnieres makes me glow wildly, it made guests feel like they were A PART of the wedding as they matched the decor and bouquets seamlessly with these. It really included guests and made them feel involved in the wedding in such a beautiful way!
Basically I could go on here for hours gushing about what a perfect experience this was. Florals were something I was really stressed out about... UNTIL I met Sherry. She was so laid back, easy going, honest and I trusted her implicitly. She took every ounce of stress out of this realm and put my Pinterest dreams to SHAME by making everything BETTER than I could have imagined!!!!!

Fun Flower Stand is an incredible addition to wedding
Fun Flower Stand is an absolutely amazing service that adds so much value to weddings. I'm a wedding photographer myself and I've seen Fun Flower Stand in action before and it's absolutely magical to watch how happy and appreciative guests are in response to the service. Sherry is incredibly responsive, kind and easy to work with. I would recommend it in a heart beat!!
I'm Sherry, the owner of Willow & Stems. My style is organic, un-structured and romantic. I love creating magical ceremony spaces that feel whimsical, romantic, and all that you want to feel when reciting your vows with the person you love most. That's how I felt on my wedding day, and that's exactly how I want you to feel on yours.
I work with my clients on every detail, and there's never a time that they can't reach me. I have a modern approach to being a florist, can't meet in person for your initial consultation? No problem, let's set up a time to chat that works for you! Planning your wedding should be stress-free and we make sure it is.
I focus on creating a quote that is very visual and detailed, so there are no unknowns. Most importantly, you can contact me whenever you want, with any updates or ideas.
This will be the most joyous day of your life, and I can guarantee that our flowers will help create the feeling you want to feel.
