Contracted with this business August 2023 for my son's wedding on August 2024. Spoke with the owner Lisa Green at least 3 times to ensure that she would be able to deliver on my vision for the wedding. I sent pictures of flowers and ideas about what I wanted the arrangements and venue to look like and she said it would not be a problem. Again, just before the wedding date, I reached out to her to remind her of what I wanted and send in the last payment. Wedding day 2024 finally arrived. Unfortunately the flowers were a big disappointment. Let's start with the isle and arbor. She FORGOT the decorations. I had ordered 10 cones filled with baby breath and two large ferns to be placed on the chairs and the ferns at the entrance to the isle. Arbor: I requested the arbor flowers be set up left upper corner and right lower portion. What I got was 3 bunch of flowers just affixed without any direction. The flowers were dead, leaves some were dead. It looked like a child put it together. The wreaths I requested were placed on the wrong doors and no tulle was placed on them. The venue: ordered lanterns and balloons with lights in them. The lanterns were placed above the dance floor but the balloons were not placed on the floor In cluster of 3 near columns. Instead she put them in the ceiling. The the table arrangement were the right size but flowers looked old. In many cases the guard petals were still on. Overall dissatisfied, based on the time and information I provided Lisa the results should have been better. The flowers were cheap, filler flowers cheap and implementation and execution jus terrible. She was at the venue approached me and started to apologize to me during family time. We agreed that it was not the right time. On 8/5 I contacted her and again she apologized. The end result, she freely offered a small refund that we both agreed upon. No amount of money will recreate the vision I had and after holding her hand it should never have happened. She was juggling another event and dropped the ball. I will not use her again, not even for memorial bouquet!!! If you are wondering what she charged me... it was over 6000.00 thousand dollars and I am certain that the flowers were not worth more than 1500.00 dollars. I got 1500.00 back. She ruined the day. I made 10 arrangements for the rehearsal dinner and my guests thought they were done by a florist and I am not a florist. Go elsewhere for your special day needs. read more

This used to be my go to place for sending arrangements or for shopping for plants, flowers, accessories when I needed a hostess gift or other gift or when I wanted something pretty for my home. But something seems to have changed. The last time I was in, the selection of products in the store wasn't what it used to be, and some of the hardgoods (pots, etc) were dusty. Some of the things were nice, and the prices were okay, plus the pandemic induced supply chain issues could still be causing issues, so I don't fault store owners for limiting their offerings; hence the 3 stars. But ... the people working seemed like they were put out when dealing with customers - being asked questions about what was available, how much it cost, or asked to wrap flowers up the way florists, garden centers usually do (simply, with fresh paper and plastic wrap - so that the item wouldn't be harmed by the winter cold outside and would look nice if you handed it to someone as a gift) Maybe I just caught them on a bad day, but they weren't very pleasant to deal with. I may pop in the next time I'm at the Tannery, just to see if things are better. I'm wondering if they are focusing more these days on phone, online orders for delivery, occasions and less on their storefront and walk in customers? read more

In MA, gift certificates legally don't expire. Went in with an older $50. gift certificate. I don't live in the area and had saved for a visit. SAME business name, address and telephone number as on the certificate. The owner would not honor it for face value. Would only honor for 50%. Absolutely ridiculous. You "bought" the good name, and reputation but stopped there. Lousy business practice hiding behind your "new" LLC. And note that the gift certificate doesn't have any exclusions etc. read more

I had an absolutely perfect experience with Beach Plum -- the best florist around! I am a total novice when it comes to flowers, floral arrangements, the like... and I came into the shop with just a handful of Pinterest photos, no real idea of what I wanted. But Pat and Lisa were amazing, they knew exactly what would work and really kept things in line with the simple but lovely look I was hoping for. And they were incredibly flexible, understanding of my budget and always kind and polite to work with. The flowers and greenery at our wedding looked so beautiful. Thank you Beach Plum! read more

I Live in Las Vegas, but wanted to send my Nana on the east coast a little holiday cheer. Having lost my grandfather at the beginning of last year I knew that she wouldn't be putting up a tree this Christmas. I found an adorable decorated evergreen tree to send to her through Beach Plum florists. Needless to say she loved it! She said it was the most beautiful tree she had ever seen, and it was the centerpiece for all of her visitors through out the holidays. I love that I was able to add on local chocolates, and a hand written note. I I think that personalized touch really makes your gift extra special. Thank you for making my Nana's Christmas read more

I contacted LIsa at Beach Plum for a special arrangement for my mom who is in a memory care center in Newburyport. She wasn't able to join us for her grandson's wedding, so I sent a picture of the flowers that were being used and Lisa created a beautiful arrangement so my mom would feel a part of the day. Two weeks later I stopped in the shop to order flowers for my brother's funeral, and Lisa again could not have been more helpful. The arrangements she created were beautiful and she also helped coordinate several other arrangements with other members of our extended family. I would highly recommend this florist- and I would also encourage you to stop in the shop because they have beautiful items for sale that are seasonal as well as timeless in nature read more
