My mom sends me a picture each time and I know that they have been just as described each time. I request a "handmade" card because my likes the "personal touch" and told me the arrangements are the nicest she has ever gotten and to please continue using this Florist! Tip: call direct, I found this place by using an online Florist who sent the order here. Just remember that those online places give the florist $15 dollars less than you pay for the flowers. That's my guess why folks aren't happy. I've learned over the years to call the florist direct. I haven't used any of the other florists in Carson City because when my mom got the first arrangement (through an online "ad") mom said they were the best and she didn't want me to try another one, she liked this one! And I've sent her flowers for 40 years. I live in California and this is a great way to send LOVE to my mom!

Hired The Floral Apothecary as my florist for my wedding in Mammoth Lakes this weekend - Deb was…read moreincredible! Honestly, I don't know a lot about flowers. I didn't know what to expect and initially was hesitant about spending so much money on flowers. Deb was wonderful to work with. She spent maybe 3-4 hours talking to me on the phone about my vision, pulled together sketches, shared photos with one another.. ahead of deciding to move forward. I thought that everything was reasonably priced from a wedding standpoint... but it was the day-of that blew me away. I felt like I was getting more than I was paying for by how gorgeous everything turned out. She made me GORGEROUS floral arches that grew upwards from the ground. I had so many compliments on my unique bouquet. Someone even told me they touched the flowers on their centerpiece because they thought it was fake by how good it all looked. This was a good learning for me to trust the process. Deb is wonderful and knows what she's doing. Plus, a great person and very friendly to work with overall.

It was a fabulous bouquet that still has beautiful "legs" several days later. We were both impressed with the variety of colors and flowers contained within the vase, and of course the kindness behind it. But! There was one key downside from this most excellent floral experience - Cats! When the vase arrived, we placed it front and center on the fireplace mantle. A few minutes later, we let the cats in from the garage, and our Boychik cat made a bee line for it and jumped up to have a sniff and a nibble. We then put it on a lower surface, which allowed both cats to enjoy (when we weren't looking), and later knock it all over. On that note, it's been hard to fully enjoy the experience with the vase either in the sink, or hidden behind closed doors at night or when we're gone. And despite of all this feline drama, are we looking forward to the next bouquet (for any reason)? Absolutely!

The florals for our wedding were beautiful and brought a lot of charm to the day, which we're truly…read moregrateful for. However, a few key details didn't match what we had discussed, which left us feeling somewhat disappointed. We had clearly communicated (with inspiration photos) that we wanted a full floral arch but what was delivered was two standing pillars without the connecting top. This wasn't mentioned to us beforehand, so we were surprised to see it as I walked down the aisle. We were also very specific in asking that there be no bright yellow in any of the arrangements (I have a strange aversion to yellow), and unfortunately, there was more yellow than expected in the bouquet. After the wedding, we expressed our concerns respectfully, but her response focused heavily on the logistical challenges Kelly faced that day, none of which were communicated to us at the time and also respectfully were not our responsibility on our wedding day. One of the concerns being that no one assisted her in carrying the flowers but in my opinion, it's not my job to make sure she has a helper or employee with her. We understand that weddings can be unpredictable and things don't always go perfectly. This was our first time planning a wedding so we were the inexperienced ones in the situation! Clearer communication from Kelly in the moment would have helped manage expectations, especially since we didn't have a coordinator and were relying on vendors to guide us. Our wedding was 25 people so the venue, other vendors, and my husband and I all agreed that a coordinator was unnecessary. That said, the arrangements were still lovely, and the florist did put in time and effort on the day, which we do appreciate of course. We just feel that based on our prior conversations, certain expectations were not met and unfortunately, our request for a partial refund on the altered arch structure was declined. All in all, the flowers were one of the more beautiful elements of the day, but the experience would have been much smoother with better communication! I would still recommend Kelly based on her florals alone but I would encourage couples to really communicate clearly with her and talk about expectations prior. There were many times that I had to email her 3x before getting a response.
