Lana absolutely exceeded my expectations! I was talking to our photographer and decided last minute to try and order a bridal bouquet + boutonniere from anywhere that would take us. About 24 hours before we needed them, I called Dream Flowers because the other flower shops I called didn’t pick up. Lana asked what I was looking for and said she’d do her best to put it all together for us, but would have to see what she could get at the flower market in the morning. She asked me to send her inspiration pictures and I did just that. I also provided my partner’s outfit for the day and let her know which flowers I would prefer more of and which I didn’t really care for. She took all of that feedback and assembled the most beautiful bridal bouquet and boutonniere, she added an ivory ribbon to match my dress, a charm to add additional bling, a ribbon to match my partner’s suit and tie (with pearl/bridal pins I might add!!!!), and even sent us on the road with a vase with a little water, a safety box for the car ride, and a paper towel to dry the stems when we arrived to our destination! These photos definitely don’t do this piece of art justice, but I’m so so happy we had the opportunity to work with Lana to make this happen, we are forever grateful and the flowers turned up in our photos so so nicely, thank you Lana!!! We couldn’t imagine going with a better florist!!

Lana was definitely one of my FAVORITE vendors for my wedding! I booked Lana more than a year out from my wedding because I heard she had a better price than a lot of other florists through multiple wedding venues. Over the course of the year we had several phone calls discussing the vision I had and what I had wanted for my wedding. Me being so indecisive, I kept changing what I wanted everytime I saw a new wedding. Lana was so kind and understanding with me regarding all these changes and I really appreciated her patience with me! I think I had changed a lot of the things I had wanted up until maybe the last month before the wedding. The day of, me and my partner were BLOWN AWAY by all the florals. The vision we had discussed had come to life and she executed it PERFECTLY! Multiple guests at my wedding complimented the floral decor and her and her teams work was stunning! I could not be more happy with how everything turned out. She even came up to me and my bridal party to snip away any wilting flowers (it was a very hot day) throughout the day. I could not recommend her enough to everyone and am glad I went with her. Lana and her team are the best!!

This review is long overdue. Our wedding took place August 2022, and it was a dream! Lana and her team made my vision blossom into life! The several meetings we had to discuss the details were always so pleasant. My wedding was postponed from 2021 to 2022 and Lana was sympathetic and understanding. I’m so grateful for all the beautiful work the DreamFlowers team did for our wedding. The flowers were so fresh and beautiful, and the arrangements were so grand and full! I can’t pick just one favorite thing – we loved the arbor florals, centerpieces and sweetheart table florals. I highly recommend selecting DreamFlowers as your event vendor. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed.

Lana was an absolute joy to work with! She’s incredibly professional, organized, and easy to work with! I first shared a pinterest board with her and she turned that into a clear google doc where we talked though what I envisioned for each thing (centerpieces, bouquets, other decor) and together came up with something that perfectly captured the vibe I was going for. She was also super flexible, allowing me to make minor changes/additions up until a week or two before my wedding. Flowers were one of the things I cared the most about for the wedding, and Lana did such an incredible job! All the flowers were bright, colorful, and in perfect condition! I’m not sure how she got such plump peonies, peony tulips, and ranunculas in April but she did, and I couldn’t be happier. We got so many compliments on the flowers, and it really helped add to the fun, playful, cheerful vibe we wanted for the wedding. Thank you so much!

I had my wedding Nov 2022 at Ruby Hill – started planning Dec2021. Lana was amazingly helpful through the whole process. She helped me plan what flowers would go well with my theme and my dream for my wedding. She is so knowledgeable and easy to work with. Her planning was so organized and thorough and she designed a beautiful backdrop of the ceremony and reception. The day of was flawless, she made sure the welcome sign, guest table, aisles, chairs, reception tables and cake stand were perfectly adorned with flowers and flower accents. Her and her team worked extremely efficiently and on time! I have no complaints what so ever! Working with her was an amazing experience from beginning to end!

We have nothing but amazing things to say about Lana. She started with a phone call to learn about what we were looking for. Next, she made a google doc and started finding stock photos of others to make sure we were all on the same page. “this kind of shape, but that kind of color…” this made it really clear, it was an easy way for us to communicate visually about what we were trying to achieve. She offered many of her own great ideas, but also listened carefully and took all the changes we asked. She agreed to make individual place cards for each guest, each mounted on a potted succulent. They were a big hit and all the guests took their plant home. On the day of the wedding she and her team executed beautifully. They followed the Google doc to the letter. They set up a chuppah with amazing floral and succulent arrangements on it. Table centerpieces were on point exactly as discussed. We love you Lana! If we were getting married again we’d hire you.

Lana was the florist for our wedding at the Asian Art Museum last year. To say she made my vision come to life would be an understatement. Lana and her team went above and beyond to give me exactly what I envisioned. I am a perfectionist and extremely picky so 5+ stars from me is difficult to come by. She is the best florist in the Bay Area and I will only work with her for any flower needs moving forward. Her work is truly magical and she made the look of our special day absolutely perfect. She is easy to work with and made the decor process fun. I had big dreams for transforming the space and she executed them perfectly.

Lana provided the flowers for my small engagement. I provided her with a couple of pictures for guidance, and she created a few beautiful arrangements that I loved. Her delivery was on time and she was very kind! I didn’t know that my fiancé had contacted her separately to surprise me with anemones in the arrangements. She wasn’t able to include them because they were out of season in January but that was okay, as I never originally expected them.

Lana was truly amazing. She was so helpful from the very beginning and kept my budget in mind during the planning process. She took my photos for inspiration I sent her and made my vision come to life. She was SO attentive the day of as well. Trust me and go with Lana with all the craziness that happens during weddings you need someone that is independent, hardworking, deactivate, and works to get things done!! Thank you Lana!

I’d like to start with the punchline – the flowers for our wedding were more lovely and fitting for my venue than I had even envisioned. Lana and her assistant did an amazing job not only creating stunning arrangements at the statement areas of our wedding – mantlepieces, centerpieces, and welcome table, but also exercised discretion to add greenery to some of our lighting fixtures to great visual effect. I could not be happier with how everything turned out. Lana was very flexible and understanding throughout the planning process. She really worked hard to create solutions that would enable us to achieve our wedding dreams while balancing our need to keep a reasonable budget. I highly recommend Dream Flowers!

Lana was amazing! We planned our wedding from out of town and Lana was super easy to work with and was accommodating of our schedules. It is clear she is passionate about her work. She listened to and understood what we had in mind right away. Many wedding guests complimented Lana’s beautiful arrangements. She exceeded our expectations and we definitely recommend working with her!

Lana is absolutely amazing. She prepared beautiful flowers and gorgeous decorations for our wedding. She was also quite reasonably priced, compared to many other florists we spoke with. We did not know much about flower arrangements, decorations, or what we wanted exactly , so she started by asking about our desired color scheme and provided several examples. She was very open to suggestions and always responsive to any additional questions after our first consultation meeting. Lana was very kind and easy to work with, and on the day of the wedding, she was very prompt and organized. She also prepared the ceremony decoration and chuppah for the wedding, which was gorgeous. Many of our guests came up to us afterwards to compliment our arrangements and decorations. Thank you so much to Lana and the team at Dream Flowers, we certainly appreciate you being part of our special day.

I ordered some flowers online for Mother’s Day and not only did they have free delivery but it was a fair price for a beautiful bouquet. My mom said it was the most beautiful arrangement she has ever received. Great online ordering process as well!

We’re grateful for having Lana be our florist for our wedding. All the floral work was beyond our expectations. Having Lana as our florist made the process very easy for us. We discussed our vision by filling a form and providing pictures we liked. She helped us fill in all little details when we spoke with her. The result was even more beautiful than what we had imagined! (Our only regret during our wedding was not having more time to enjoy the floral arrangements that we loved so much.) Lana picked out the perfect colors to match our wedding palette and incorporated succulents that we like. We received many compliments from our guests. One of the guests even mentioned that it was the most beautiful floral work she had seen. We wish we could have another big party so that we can hire Lana again. ; ) Thank you for everything, Lana!

Wow! I ordered flowers from Lana at Dream Flowers this afternoon. Even though she was busy working on a wedding (which I see has many excellent reviews), she got mine beautifully arranged in a very impressive impressive vase and delivered today. The arrangement exceeded my expectations by far!!!! I feel so lucky to find Lana. I will definitely do business with them again.

I contacted Lana about a month before my wedding for a bridal bouquet. She was very quick at responding. I had a certain color theme (a mix of white and jewel tones (dark reds and purples)) in mind, and she was able to make suggestions on the types of flowers (aka seasonal flowers) to help me keep the cost down. The final product was beautiful and exceeded our expectations! We got quite a few compliments on it 🙂 I would definitely recommend Lana to anyone getting married.

Working with Lana at Dream Flowers was truly an amazing experience—from her first class customer service–always responding to emails, texts and phone calls….she also took the time to meet before the event and go over every single detail…. I remember saying before the wedding took place to the mother of the groom how wonderful it had been working with Lana and how I trusted she would do a good job and she absolutely did not disappoint…. and when I walked into the Palm Event Center and saw what she did to make our vision come to life was truly enchanting whimsical and magical–it looked better than I could have imagined—there was nothing that was not absolutely perfect….she is truly the sweetest and kindest florist and it was such a pleasure working with her. I would also like to mention that she is very reasonable with her prices which is truly appreciated and we brought a ton of the florals home and they lasted at least a week which was such an added bonus to have so many beautiful florals in our home for so long after the wedding! From the bottom of our hearts—thank you Lana/-you are the best at what you do! 🙂

Lana made my experience so easy! We had to send a ‘thank you’ arrangement to a friend and it was a great experience. I looked at her website & immediately trusted her judgement because her arrangements are absolutely gorgeous – all I said was I would prefer a country garden look. 

It was free delivery & she texted me to confirm that she delivered + provided a picture! Thanks Lana for a great experience.

Coming out of Yelp retirement just for this review. So, so, so impressed by Lana and Dream Flowers. I am out of state, but called at 4:30 pm on Friday to have a sympathy arrangement sent by 9 am Saturday morning (the next day!) Lana not only put up with my terrible phone reception, but also texted with follow ups, and was so friendly, professional, and efficient. I went with the Designer’s Choice arrangement, because I’ve seen her work on her site, and everything is so chic, tasteful, and elegant. She certainly did not disappoint. Even with the designer’s choice, she asked me for color and aesthetic preferences, and incorporated them! This last minute order was delivered early, and was simply beautiful.  I checked out all the reviews of the area florists, and her work is just beyond, with excellent pricing. Plus…free shipping?! 1000% highly recommend. Thank you again!

Lana is a true flower fairy. I had the pleasure of working with her for my wedding this past weekend. Not only is she very easy to brainstorm and plan with, but she is also extremely knowledgeable about all different types of florals and types of arrangements. With just a few inspirational photos, she was able to make the bouquets, boutonnieres, circle Arch, and chandelier pieces of my dreams. Everything was done efficiently and beautifully. Would definitely recommend.

Lana is amazing! 

She did all the florals for my wedding day and truly made my vision come to life. The pricing is really reasonable for the amount of florals and design.

Throughout the process, I reviewed with Lana over the phone twice; first time was the initial consultation/vision, and one more time right before the wedding. She really makes sure she knows what you want and she is aware of your budget.

Honestly – everything went perfectly and if you choose Lana, you are in good hands! She is also the absolute sweetest and just a joy to be around.

Lana was wonderful!  She made our floral wedding vision come to life.  At our first meeting, she sat with us for hours, helping us design each floral element for our wedding.  She has tons of experience and is an award winner.  We had gone to multiple florists who were not as kind and didn’t listen to us like she did.  She is very reasonably priced.  She also creates an online document with photos and descriptions that you can view and edit in real time.  Her arrangements were beautiful.  You can tell that she really cares about her job and her work.  Definitely recommend!

Lana is simply incredible at what she does. She turns your vision into an reality that far exceeds expectations. Her care and attention to detail was much appreciated. Her arrangements show her experience and passion for her work. Not only did she personally make sure every corsage was placed and boutonnière was pinned herself, she saw when I was incredibly busy and helped me get ready. She made a special boutonnière for my 3 year old with magnets so as not to be dangerous for him. She was seen all around my venue before the ceremony helping with various things. Above and beyond!! Lana gets all the stars I can give. I am so grateful for her presence and the upstanding work she did to create such a gorgeous setting for my wedding day. Thank you Lana!

3 words: Lana is awesome! There is nothing I can think of that could have made my experience with her better. From start to finish, she has been open and communicative, helpful, and a gem at helping me pick the right flowers for my wedding. She thinks of everything, from the best flowers for the temperature of the venue, which ones photograph the best, and even which bouquet shape would work best for you. She even tries to save you money by using the flowers from the ceremony for decor for the reception. Our guest table and dessert table looked like beautifully decorated, tastefully done floral masterpieces. I will recommend Lana to anyone. Really a pleasure to work with.

Lana made of my wedding a wonderful dream with all the floral arrangements she created. She is a very talented artist, so kind and smart. I had a few meetings with her and she was able to capture exactly what I wanted. I was most impressed by the variety of flowers, some which I had never seen before. The palette of colors was even more beautiful than I had in mind. Even now, nearly two weeks after the wedding, the guests cannot stop talking about the stunning centerpieces with the little white pumpkins, so unique!, the garlands for the king tables, and the amazing bouquets for my 9 bridesmaids. My bouquet was even more astonishing, and I cried with happiness when I saw it. I’m not sure where Lana gets her flowers, but I have never seen the beautiful pale peach colors anywhere. On the wedding day, Lana was the first of the vendors arriving at the Palm Event Center. When I arrived everything was ready and just perfectly beautiful. She worked many hours and gave us the gift of decorating the wedding cakes; everybody was in awe of the flowers on the cakes – spectacular!!! I am not a person to write reviews, but I want other brides to see and feel what I experienced the day of my wedding. Thanks to other yelpers I found Dream Flowers. Lana definitely is my Florist Fairy!

Lana did an exceptional job on my wedding flowers! I have actually already referred her to a few people needing a florist for their wedding and 18th birthday. Lana exceeded my expectations with the quality of flowers she used, the orchids were huge, the submerged orchids and tall centerpieces did not disappoint. Lana is very professional, she captured every detail I wanted for my wedding and even went beyond. I would recommend her to anyone needing a florist for their special day.

I am writing this review about my wedding florist Lana. I wanted to start by saying looking for florists in San Francisco was not an easy task nor a cheap one I stumbled upon a lot of websites which offered either boring designs or ridiculously expensive and overrated arrangements. When I got to Lana “Dream flowers” on my search I was immediately impressed with the quality of the pictures posted on Lana’s website emphasizing her gorgeous work. Lana had sorted her website in a very easy way to browse through wedding arrangements and bridal bouquets by date and season. This by itself made me feel that she is very professional. When I contacted Lana she was quick to respond and very nice to work with. We met twice once for initial discussion and the second time to discuss the venue and color schemes. From discussing my boards on Pinterest, color palettes and my wedding gown, I felt straight away that I am in good hands. she understood what I was aiming for just by showing her a few samples pictures. My bouquet and my bridesmaids’ bouquets were STUNNING. Lana also helped set up the reception flowers and sweetheart table and stayed the whole night to make sure everything is in place. She made beautiful boutonnieres and corsages for my family members but also a very unique hair piece from fresh flowers which my hair and makeup person called “the most beautiful hair clip I have EVER seen “. Also important is that she is very reasonably priced and offers only the best! I would definitely recommend Lana to every bride and I am hoping I will get a chance to work with her in the future. CLASSY, KIND and professional are the words to describe Dream flowers! Thank you!

Lana did an amazing job at our wedding this past July, 2018. She was flexible with the first meeting, listened to what we wanted the decorations to look like, made recommendations and provided us with an understandable contract and budget. She arrived early the day of our wedding and worked her magic with her assistants. The chandelier was beautiful and turned the venue into this whimsical space. I loved it! The flowers were fresh, pretty and within the color scheme we agreed on. Thank you, Lana!

She was very helpful in being able to design amazing arrangements for everything from flowers for my hair that stayed fresh all day, organic looking centerpieces, chuppah decorations, and jaimalas (garlands) as well. She was also a helpful partner in our discussions about how to make flowers during our weddings as sustainable, reusable, and affordable as possible.

This place is absolutely phenomenal! Lana is an absolute genius. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a pretty flower arrangement. In fact, the photos do not even do them justice. They look pretty on the website but once you receive them they just blow you away gorgeous! And the quality of the flowers is just amazing. I wish we had a place like this where I live. My mom loves the flowers, thank you so much Lana!

Lana made all of my flower dreams come true for my wedding on 4/14/18 and I could t be happier. Lana is truly the most professional and organized florist I have ever worked with! Not only does she make beautiful floral arrangements, but she goes above and beyond to make your vision a reality. After an initial meeting, she uses google docs and shares it with you so you can add and edit the plan for flowers, centerpieces, etc. You can easily access this and add comments and pictures. Her prices are affordable for the Bay Area. She even takes pictures of her work and sends them to you after the events.  I can not recommend another florist any higher then Lana. Thank you again so much Lana!

Working with Lana on my wedding 3.10.18 was an absolute dream! She was very attentive, patient, and honest with me as I was going through my process of choosing and changing the floral arrangements throughout the planning process. It’s evident she carefully plans her arrangements and loves the work she does. Our entire wedding was elevated by the flowers, and all her suggestions for centerpieces, votives, chuppah flowers, etc. were spot on!Any time we had to meet, she was very flexible and easy to work with, and honored my budget while still making everything look so beautiful. I thought my budget was too low for any of the premium flowers I normally see in weddings, but she found a way to include the flowers I wanted while also staying within what we felt comfortable paying. Her creativity is definitely worth every penny!I absolutely recommend Lana, and look forward to working with her for future events and floral arrangements!

Lana did an amazing job for my wedding! She was so easy to work with and was so organized at everything she did! She took my pinterest board and made it come to life! Everything turned out exactly how I wanted it. I had no complaints whatsoever about Lana and everyone was so amazed at how she went above and beyond to bring out my vision and color palette to life! We had the Beauty and the Beast theme for our wedding and Lana was able to incorporate as much roses as she can into all the floral arrangements and it all turned out so beautiful and breathtaking!

It’s been a month since our wedding and we still have people talking about how amazing the florist was! I was so happy to have found a local florist that literally lived only 3 minutes away from me and was able to make my wedding day so much more special with her work! I’ve did a lot of research on finding the perfect florist who was close by and would do an amazing job and as well as within our budget. I was really lucky to stumble upon her page and saw all her work and immediately fell in love. Lana was extremely helpful and I could tell from her work, how passionate she is about it. Everything she did was very punctual and exactly how I wanted it. She made sure that everything we had discussed was going to be done according to my vision. From delivering our flowers to putting the pews up at the church and taking them down and repurposing them at our reception, has shown how well she works and has exceeded my expectations. She always checked on us to make sure our flowers looked okay and to help break down everything when our reception was over.

Lana was truly amazing and I would HIGHLY recommend her for any events you may have!

Lana did the flowers at my wedding. She did a great job and I loved the flowers and was very sad to leave lost of them behind. She was also very detail oriented. During our appointment, she explained everything she could, from colors of ribbons/flowers, styles, etc. and gave me a very good idea of how my flowers would look like on our wedding. I also liked the fact that she created a document which included pictures and detailed descriptions of the arrangements, and to which I could make edits or add pictures or comments. To add, she also lends the flower girl basket and the ring boy pillow which was nice because I didn’t have to worry about where to find those. And I got to pick from a few options as well. Finally, her prices were very reasonable. I highly recommend her!

I did not even know where to start looking for an affordable, pleasant, and talented florist in Bay Area when I got engaged. Thankfully we came across Lana! She is so professional and so willing to try to help you reach your dream without breaking the bank. I gave her my vision, and she turned the reality into a beautiful scenery! She also didn’t charge for every little thing like others might. If she had it already, she let us use it. In addition to the stunning bouquets, what I personally will always hold dear to my heart is her willingness to go above and beyond. Our ceremony was planned to be outside at 12 noon but the forecast was showing it would only stop raining around 10 AM. Two hours is nowhere near enough to set up the ceremony site before guests start to arrive. So Lana and her team didn’t let the rain pouring on them stop them and were doing whatever they could to make sure everything was ready for noon. There are many businesses out there, but Lana actually cares about the couple and has as much interest vested into your special day as some of your closest relatives do! We had several out of town guests at our wedding who are in the floral business as well and they were very impressed with her work. If you are on a florist search like I once was, look no further. Or at least set up one appointment with Lana and see for yourself!

Lana did all of the arrangements for our wedding on June 18 at the San Francisco Film Centre; I would give her 10 stars if I could. She went above and beyond from the beginning, meeting with us in person us to discuss vision and palettes and then quickly putting together a document that we could collaborate on to make sure every detail was covered.

Lana was able to work within our budget and with our color palette and everything turned out so, so beautifully. It was huge for me to have vibrant, seasonal flowers but Lana was so great i was able to trust her creative expertise and not worry about the small details. Not only did Lana deliver the flowers, provide instructions for the carried bouquets and arrange the larger arrangements, she stayed through the ceremony and re-purposed the bridesmaid and ceremony bouquets for the reception.

Highly, highly recommend Lana and will use her again for other events!
Thank you, Lana, for your service! I so appreciate it! Have a good day and thanks again! Maria 🙂

What a magician! She was able to take my (very unclear) guidance about colors and so on and put together a fantastic proposal exactly within budget, and then three months later when the caterer made us change the ENTIRE floor plan, she was able to adapt flawlessly and the table centerpieces were drop dead gorgeous. My bouquet was perfect and I loved her use of tiny cute succulents on everyone’s butonniers along with peacock feathers and lilies. Such a great designer!

Jennifer and Joshua:

Lana was a dream to work with. She was so kind and considerate of my crazy wedding brain. I changed my flower design and choices 3 times and she remained calm and supportive the entire time. Lana also made sure that I didn’t have anything to worry about on the day of the wedding. She did all setup and cleanup and made sure everything was exactly how I envisioned it would be. She was the most wonderful vendor. I would highly recommend her to everyone. Oh, and of course the final product was so beautiful and everything I dreamed it would be.

We at the Orinda Garden Club can’t thank you enough for your wonderful suggestion of Lana as a floral design presenter. Our group was wowed by her designs and I know we only saw the tip of the iceberg of her work. She appealed to those of us who lean more toward horticulture and to members who have received national awards in floral design. In addition, she gave wonderful tips about designing, described the flowers she was using and the rationale for her choices and how our members could create designs themselves. Additionally, she demonstrated how her structures could be reused at home by adding new organic materials, which certainly appealed to our conservation minded club.

Lana put a tremendous amount of effort into her presentation, building structures ahead of the show so that she could demonstrate more designs during the allotted time and spending time previewing and sketching designs for us so that the designs could be tailored to our members’ interests.

Additionally, our members were charmed by Lana’s warmth and enthusiasm. Her sense of humor and her unique story, She was an inspiration to all of us and we wish her all of the success she deserves.

Thanks again for taking the time to refer Lana to us.

Sincerely,

Linda Thompson, Program Co-chair at Orinda Garden Club

Lana completely exceeded my expectations! The flowers were absolutely perfect, every single detail- from the the selection of flowers, to the colors, to the fullness of them in the bouquets, chuppah and the centerpieces. She understood my vision and delivered great work. Even my husband kept saying how beautiful it was and how much he loved his boutonniere. She was able to produce gorgeous, quality work for us in a short amount of time.  Thank you Lana for helping contribute to our perfect day!

Rachel and Nick:
Working with Lana from Dream Flowers was a pleasure. Her passion for flowers comes through in everything she does. It was inspiring to work with someone who cares so much. Lana did all of my flowers for the wedding, making the ceremony and the reception beautiful. Even my wedding coordinator and caterer both remarked on how wonderful my flower lady was. 😉 She is also very organized — we met 2x to discuss the vision for the flowers and talk through the specific arrangements. She let me know the day she had purchased the flowers, so I knew that there was nothing to worry about. Lana is very creative and provided a lot of  wonderful recommendations, crafting beautiful and unique decor for the welcome table, escort card table, in addition to the bouquets and the table centerpieces. Thank you, Lana, for making our day so memorable.

Natalia and George:

I completely relied on the design she offered. There were no even sample design! The only request that I had was to include mimosa flower, red and white flowers. Also the center-peaces had to be not tall. The result: she delivered the absolute magic to the table! There was a little problem that I only found out about later: one of the two vases that were at the bar table broke and it was a very unique piece. Svetlana was able to find another vase that fitted so well and no one recognized anything. The flowers design, timing and value were perfect!

Natalia:
Svetlana, the founder of Dream Flowers, is not only a very talented professional but also a very linear and easygoing person. She rearranged the desired look several times without any doubt. Every time it was as good as it could be. She is the one you could rely on and fully trust, understanding she is the best in what she does.

Lana created the bouquets for me and the bridesmaids. They were absolutely stunning and far exceeded my expectations. My order was small ($500) so I was afraid that no florist would even take my business. Lana came through not only to meet my budget, she also created these GIANT bouquets which looked 10 times the price I paid. Thank you Lana! I am so grateful for you making my wedding a memorable day!
