They know all the florists and know which are top notch, with arrangements arriving beautiful, bright and long lasting. Brattle Square Florist came through, providing a bouquet for the casket and a matching vase arrangement for each side of the casket. With my husband's beloved guitars nearby on stands, the whole scene presented a loving tribute to a wonderful, kind and talented man. Their kindness and professionalism in a difficult time will be long remembered, and they will be my florist of choice forever. Thank you so much.

So, when it came time to find a florist for my wedding, then, I definitely wanted to have this amazing shop do the job if they felt able to take it on! We had a medium-sized wedding down at Arlington Street Church about a week ago, and Joyce and her team at Nellie's came through in the most fabulous ways!! My wife and I couldn't have been happier with the big altar arrangements, our gorgeous bouquets, the little boutonnieres and wristlet corsages for our wedding party, and the lovely smaller arrangements for the tables at our reception. Absolutely everything was just as we'd discussed with Joyce in the planning stage, delivered promptly the morning of our service, fresh, lovely, and just 100% top-quality gorgeousness. Couldn't be happier!!! Do yourselves a favor and think about Nellie's for any floral needs you might have, and if you can't think of any right now maybe even make one up :)
