“Erin is an expert florist. She has a deep love of all growing things, and that manifests itself in her beautiful works of art – her bouquets and arrangements. She has an eye for elegance and beauty, and she pairs that perfectly with the look you are going for. She easily reads the “feel” of the event or environment, and she knows how to maximize the materials she is using to perfectly execute that look. This is her passion. She belongs in the sun and the open air with her flowers. There is no one else I would work with. She went the extra mile to make the aesthetic of my day perfect.”

“Erin’s eye for deep and dynamic beauty is made manifest in her approach to creating stunning floral arrangements.  Erin surprised and blessed my husband and I with the gorgeous arrangements she crafted for our autumn wedding. From growing the flowers in her garden to innovating arrangements to complement our vision – and our budget – Erin was thoughtful, resourceful, and a true artist. My husband and I considered ourselves blessed that Erin shared her gift with us and, in doing so, helped make our first day of marriage unforgettable. I cannot recommend Erin – and her artistry – highly enough. Her heart, work ethic, knowledge, and creativity are unparalleled.”

“My husband and I reached out to Erin to assist with floral design and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. We were so grateful for Erin's creativity and expertise. Working with Erin on the florals was one of the highlights of the planning process. I attribute this to Erin's passion for her craft, her ability to communicate, her kindness, and her expertise. On the day of the wedding, I was simply blown away by the boutonnieres, the bouquets, the floral crown, and the table décor. It all came together perfectly and was exactly in line with our vision. Erin’s floral work is truly remarkable, and I would encourage every bride and groom to consider Erin for floral design.”

Erin was a complete joy to work with from beginning to end! I started planning my wedding with absolutely no experience planning such an event. Erin made it all come together! She taught me about all of the flowers I was interested in and made my dreams a reality. I was able to work with her on setting up my tables in a perfect, simple way and she made the most beautiful garland. I appreciated her willingness to show me some DIY options to save money. She went above and beyond and truly helped me combine all of my interests and tastes into a cohesive look. I would recommend Erin for any flower need you may have! She’s my go-to gal to make my dreams come to life!

“I decided to surprise my wife with a vow renewal ceremony. Over a 2-year period, I figured out all the particulars down to the minutest detail with one exception - the floral arrangements. Not being an overly creative person, what I really wanted was someone who I trusted enough that I could just turn the floral arrangement portion of the event over to and have confidence it would be nice. I was telling a friend about this one roadblock to completing the surprise. My friend immediately told me that Erin was someone who could remove my floral roadblock.

I called Erin, and it was quickly clear that she passionately wanted my event to be special. After getting some basic event details that allowed her to “create” we mutually decided that I would establish a budget and she would operate within it. She went above and beyond anything I had thought about, using flowers from her own garden mixed with cut flowers that she purchased. She designed unique and blended personal pieces, as well as arrangements for the ceremony, reception room, and guest tables at the restaurant.

I realized during the event that the floral arrangements were what I would call the crowning touch to a perfectly planned and executed surprise. What originally was going to be me setting up a few vases of red roses in a couple places in the church turned into a display of elegance and beauty. I highly recommend Erin for her creativity and her obvious passion, and because she creates every piece with you in mind. Be prepared for many compliments from your guests.”

“Once again, thank you Erin, for making our daughters’ weddings perfect.  You made exactly what they wanted. The bouquets were gorgeous with beautiful fall colors. Many compliments were received that day on the beautiful table arrangements, flowers and bouquets.  We really appreciated how you would share your ideas and your frequent updates were so helpful.  Thank you for making both of their wedding days so special.”

“Erin came alongside my daughter and suggested ideas for her wedding that were beautiful and personal. She offered seasonal and mostly local choices that honored my daughter’s ideas and helped her develop a unique vision for her wedding. She still talks about her flowers and how much she loved them! Erin also sketched out the layout of the reception, using different table shapes to define the space. She decorated the tables with foraged greenery and seasonal fruits and cones, keeping the costs in mind.  The results were beautiful and working with Erin was a pleasure!”
