Kind Words

I wanted to take a second to tell you how absolutely stunning every single detail was yesterday. I was blown off of my feet by every single thing you had your hand on. The lanterns, the head table with all the fruit, every single floral arrangement, the bar back, the bouquets, the ribbon on the bouquets. The list goes on! I cannot put in to words how grateful we were for you. Thank you and your team for everything. I know yesterday was not an easy day with the scattered rain, but you all executed everything fantastically.

Oh my goodness….we are still in awe of the magnificent floral magic at Hartley and Spencer’s wedding!  Seriously, Eatherley, you made all our dreams come true.  The floating arrangement over the head table was amazing and the flower bar was just so beautiful.   Not to mention the little touches: alpaca wreathes and lovely bouquets.   Thank you and your team from the bottom of our hearts.  It’s not a night we will ever forget and, since Hartley is our only daughter, won’t be repeated. So glad we had the wisdom to listen to Lindsay when she insisted that you were the floral team for us.

"Words cannot express the beautiful floral arrangements created for Kaitlyn’s and Brandon’s wedding, simply STUNNING!!! The arbor created for the ceremony was breathtaking and brought tears to my eyes. We loved how you used dogwood flowers in the arbor and all the flowers created such a romantic ceremony. I wanted the reception to glow, and it did! The eucalyptus used throughout the venue and the flowers were perfect, soft and romantic.

You were amazing to work with and you and your team are so talented. Again, thank you for making Kaitlyn’s wedding day so beautiful and special!"

We cannot thank you enough for your hard work to make everything perfect for us last weekend. You brought to life exactly what I had envisioned for the barn, chuppah, bramble, and every element of the day -- but made it a million times better than I could have ever imagined. Everything was just gorgeous, and you were so great to work with through the entire process.
Thank you SO much!

"Hiring Floressence was one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process! We had a mountain wedding at Claxton Farm, and the team at Floressence went above and beyond to make our wedding day a dream come true. Eatherley, the owner, is a wizard with flowers and can turn any vision/color scheme you have into a reality. Our tent didn’t allow for a long hanging floral installation, so instead she and her team installed multiple hanging floral chandeliers which turned out to be so beautiful!  The bouquets themselves were absolutely stunning! I have never seen flowers look so pretty!  The attention to detail and placement was beyond my wildest dreams.  We also had some last minute adjustments due to weather, and Floressence was able to make an necessary changes on the fly. I cannot recommend Eatherley and her team more!! I wish I could live in that tent forever!”

It was truly the best day EVER for us both — and the flowers were probably my favorite part. They made my vision for the big day come to life perfectly. Can’t thank your team enough for the hard work!

The flower arrangements were breathtakingly beautiful! The rehearsal dinner flowers were a lovely and different complement to the wedding. They perfectly reflected the mountain setting, the casual event, and the fall season, which amazingly took place during the weekend! The colors were amazing, and so many people loved the dahlias. Best of all, it was perfectly seamless. Once the order was done, I didn’t have to worry or think about it, but just have a fun evening. You are true professionals and artists! Thanks again!
