Planning perspective
What to consider before reaching out
A strong first conversation is about fit, not just availability. Share your date, approximate guest count, location, and the feeling you want the day to have. Ask what is included, what typically changes the final quote, and what decisions need to be made earliest.
For a florals partner, confirm how communication works, who will be present on the day, and how the team handles changes. Pricing was not included in the supplied research, so request a current, itemized proposal directly from the business.

Kathie and her team at Jardiniere did such an amazing job. We hired her for our wedding in October 2025 and they did so amazing. They perfectly captured the colors I was looking for, and recommended beautiful additions that really brought everything together. Wherever you are getting married, we highly recommend you splurge for the arch. Our ceremony photos looked amazing with that in the background. Kathie was very helpful and very descriptive in the floral planning process. She put together beautiful centerpieces that made the room pop. My flowers lasted all day and I took them home to be pressed. You leave with so many. She was very fun and delivered our flowers on the day of the wedding...

Kathie at Jardiniere did an amazing job with our wedding flowers! I'm not a huge flower person so I don't know much about flowers and really didn't have much of a vision, but Kathie was so helpful in explaining everything to me and helping me decide. Our flowers were beautiful and she did a great job with setting up the ceremony space as well as table centerpieces. She also made these awesome floral collars for our dogs that we loved! The flowers lasted after the wedding as well and were gorgeous for the following weeks! She truly made our winter wedding dream come true with her special touches!

Our wedding flowers were truly the flowers of my dreams. Kathy really listens and will execute your vision flawlessly!!! I still have dreams about my wedding arch, it was just perfect. Also, her warm, inviting, and bubbly personality makes her a pleasure to work with.

From the moment I met Kathie, I knew my wedding was in good hands. She really took the time to understand my vision for the wedding flowers, and then used her eye for florals and previous experience working with my venue (Wentworth by the Sea) and baker (Jacques Pastry Shop) to make the dream totally come to life! From the bouquets, to the flower arch, to the aisle flowers, to the table arrangements, every single piece was thoughtfully designed in exactly the colors and flower types we had hoped for. They even worked with my baker to ensure that the flowers on my cake exactly matched my bouquet. The team worked tirelessly behind the scenes to move flowers from the ceremony in to the receptio...

We had our wedding at Wentworth by the Sea and had included in our package (for some of the reception centerpieces ) this florist. Once we met with Kathy, we knew she had the knowledge and vision to execute what we wanted for my daughter’s wedding. She was excellent about helping you balance your vision with cost, time of year, venue space, etc… we were extremely pleased with her attention to detail. Do not hesitate to hire them for your wedding!
