Here's what our brides and others are saying....

From the moment I met Christy, I knew that she would do an excellent job! She was a pleasure to work with and was extremely accommodating to my vision from the bouquets to the centerpieces. She made picking out my flowers “Fun”. From her detailed eye for perfection to her creative and artistic ideas.

On my wedding day, I was blown away with all of the flowers. The bouquets were absolutely stunning and more than I could have ever expected. The ceremony flowers and reception centerpieces were all so beautiful! Christy’s eye for detail and personal touch was definitely seen in every bouquet, ceremony piece and reception centerpiece. Her 18 years of experience and sense of pride made me confident that the flowers would be perfect.

I would recommend Christy to anyone who is looking for a floral designer that not only has the talent and creativity to think outside of the box but who can be trusted to deliver exceptional results on one of the most important day’s in a bride’s life.

Sincerely,

Allena Ball

Christy,

You work fast! That's great.

I do want to have you be the florist for my wedding :) There was a tremendous difference between my consultation with you and my consultation with the other florist. You were very prepared and took my ideas and interests into much consideration. And you were prompt in getting the quote to me.

I'm very excited about the flowers we picked out. I forwarded the pics to my parents so they can see them. The colors and flowers add so much to what I had envisioned! Zack was very pleased to see me so excited about working with you.

Once again, I truly appreciate your professionalism and the personal touch you add to your business. Now I can take one more thing off my "to do" list and know I can breathe easy because this important aspect of my wedding is in hands of one whom I trust.

Talk soon!

Having owned my own floral shop for 14 years, Christy worked with me for 7 of those. She's very talented and professional in ever way. I would recommend her for any of your floral needs. If you need someone to create that elegant wedding, party or showers, Christy's professionalism is all you need for that special day. Christy is one of the many talented designers I have met in my 25 years of floral designing.

Christy….

What can I say but what an excellent job you did on my flowers!!! I was a little nervous not really knowing what to expect or really even what I wanted for my wedding flowers, but after seeing what you had done for a friend of mine in her wedding and talking with you in detail over the phone and in person, I left you feeling very confident. When you brought my flowers to me they were exactly as I would have imagined, if not better. You did a BEAUTIFUL job. I will be more than happy to pass your name on to our other friends and you will forever be a part of our special day!

Thanks…

When my daughter got married, we were so fortunate to have Christy to handle her wedding. I would highly recommend Christy to handle any aspect of a wedding. She has experience and natural talent to handle any of your wedding floral needs.

Hi Christy,

How are you doing today? I hope you are getting to enjoy summer. It is gorgeous out! Thank you so much for your work on the flowers. They were absolutely beautiful!! Our wedding was perfect and I loved every minute of it. My mom said she enjoyed meeting you too. Thank you for agreeing to meet her. I had almost no free time because we did our rehersal that morning and then it was off for hair and makeup. It was really fun to get so dressed up and the best was marrying my wonderful Jeffrey. God has so truly blessed us.

Good morning,

Just wanted to thank you again for making Amy's wedding one of the most wonderful and beautiful days of her life. I could not have had anyone to have done such a great job and taken the time that you did. Most people would have just run thru and not give a lot of thought as to what she wanted and how she wanted it. I hope to see you again and talk to see how things are going with business and also if you ever need any help I will be glad to help in any way I can. I will get in touch with you when we get pictures to get you some to put on your web site. Again, thanks and God Bless you and Kevin in all of your life and keep up the good work.

Christy,

I just wanted to thank you so much for everything you have done to make Amanda and Nathan's wedding beautiful. I've had alot of people to tell me and Elaine how pretty the church was decorated. We couldn't have done it without you.

God Bless You,

Teresa Garrett

I attended my niece's wedding, Jessica Forby and Travis Trice and I can't tell you how impressed I was with your floral arrangements. The bouquets for the bridesmaids, but was most impressed with the two large arrangements and the tall arrangements for the tables. Beautifully done and color coordinated. Congratulations to all who put it together. I do not live in NC but if I did you would be high on my list of people I would deal with.
Thank you for your talents.
