Had the pleasure of working with Anne for our May wedding this year, and find that she is extremely…read moreexperienced, versatile, and creative. My husband and I did not have a strong vision for florals and just asked that Anne help us come up with florals that are classic and clean. The reception hall for example has darker decor and ballroom style ceiling, so we were hoping for florals that would brighten up the space and create more dimension for the tall ceilings. Anne took these simple notes and ran with it (while keeping our budget in mind), and created such an elegant spread of florals for us, from stands that frame the aisle (large, dynamic pieces) to tall and low centerpieces in the dining area. They were exactly as we wanted (better, I'd say!) and I would love to work with Anne again for future events!

Anne provided flowers for our wedding in June and we could not have been happier with everything…read more Anne worked with us to design our dream floral arrangements around our color palette and personalities. She was honest and truthful, which is extremely helpful to someone (like me) who has never thrown a large event before and needed help visualizing the details. Anne's keen eye for detail made the day so much more special and we are so grateful to her!

Truly excellent. I've ordered flowers from Gorgeous and Green several times and they have always…read morebeen beautiful! Always a new arrangement and always super-fresh, in-season, and local. However, this last order really showed the difference between Gorgeous and Green and what you might get elsewhere. I had ordered flowers for my partner's birthday. Unfortunately, Pilar made a mistake and delivered the flowers several days early. Any person or business will eventually make a mistake, its much more telling how they handle these situations than whether or not they happen at all. Pilar immediately said "no problem, take these now and I will still deliver another arrangement on the correct date, no extra charge". No only did Pilar follow through on her commitment but the second arrangement was also unique and beautiful! I'm super appreciative of her dedication, craft, and thoughtful service. I will absolutely be getting more flowers from her in the future. Did I mention that every arrangement I've gotten always lasts well over a week? Surpassingly fabulous!

Gorgeous and Green is the BEST florist in the Bay Area (and quite possibly beyond). Their owner,…read morePilar, is not just a florist; she's a floral artist! First off, the arrangements: we're talking show-stoppers, conversation-starters, "Where did you get that?!" kind of arrangements. It's like each bouquet tells a story, with every flower playing its part. Every arrangement is an adventure because you're bound to discover something new and breathtaking. They're the most unique, eye-catching varieties you've ever seen. And the flowers are picked at the perfect time so they stay fragrant long after they've arrived (often by bicycle!) and always last a surprisingly long time. Even their vases aren't just containers; they're pieces of art. Each vase complements their floral masterpieces in a way that elevates the whole arrangement. We're talking about unique shapes, textures, and colors that turn an already beautiful bouquet into a standout piece of decor. If you're looking to give a memorable gift that your recipient will rave about, make a statement, or just treat yourself to some beauty, Gorgeous and Green is THE place. Trust me, once you go Gorgeous and Green, there's no going back.

We are incredibly grateful to have found Eunice through our planner Sushie (Ménage à Trois SJ). For…read moreour wedding, she created a stunning grounded arch for the ceremony, beautiful bud vase arrangements, bridal and bridesmaid bouquets, as well as boutonnieres and corsages. Her florals truly elevated our wedding at Allied Arts Guild, and it would not have been the same without her beautiful work. During our initial phone call, I shared some inspo photos, and Eunice took the time to understand my vision--discussing colors, flower preferences, and more. I made a few adjustments to our floral needs before the wedding, and Eunice was always kind and communicative. I even forgot about the flower girl petals until a couple of days before, and Eunice graciously provided them for us. On the wedding day, the florals turned out better than I could have ever imagined. Eunice considered details I hadn't even thought of, like matching my bridal bouquet ribbon to my husband's tie and coordinating the bridesmaid bouquet ribbons with their dresses. She also helped reposition the boutonnieres while we were taking pre-ceremony photos. We were able to repurpose the ceremony flowers for our reception, which helped us save on our budget. For future couples, one small thing I wish I had known is that I needed to drop off the bud vases at her studio in Danville the week before the wedding. Not a big deal but just something to plan for during the busy days leading up to the wedding, especially if you don't live nearby. Thank you Eunice for helping make our dream wedding come to life!

My husband and I have been getting arrangements from her for years, so when it came time for us to get married there was no question who we wanted to work with. She really is exceptional at what she does - a true artist. I gave a few notes on likes/dislikes but wanted to give Liz creative freedom and she really out did herself. She even met with us at Pleasanton rentals and helped us make some design choices so everything would be cohesive; such a nice touch. When I asked to make a couple adjustments and add ons in the final months, she was so accommodating. All of our friends and families were blown away by the florals, we are still getting compliments 6 weeks later. Thank you Liz for the best experience and best florals ever!!!!

We especially appreciated how mindful she was of our budget--she suggested several creative options that helped us achieve a beautiful look while keeping costs manageable, patiently going through all of the options for aisle floral layouts and how the ceremony florals would be arranged. You could tell that she has had a lot of experience! Initially, one of the floral colors wasn't quite what we had envisioned, but as soon as we asked to replace it, she made the adjustment quickly and without any issue. The final arrangements were beautiful, and we appreciated her flexibility and willingness to make sure we were happy. On the day of the wedding, when we arrived all the flowers were perfectly placed and it was nice not having to worry about at least one critical part of the wedding that day. For future couples, I'd recommend providing an exact color palette or reference photos ahead of time to avoid any last-minute confusion. Overall, we were very pleased with her service, communication, and commitment to bringing our vision to life!

My favorite part about working with Laura (aside from the gorgeous flowers) was her expertise. Throughout the planning process she provided professional input and advice. She created a mock-up for me which was so helpful and she helped me with some other details and decisions to make our guest's tables perfect. She worked with us and our budget as we tweaked our final quote a few times. She is extremely responsive, quick and organized with updates! The mock up was a beautiful sneak peek but NO COMPARISON to walking into our venue on our wedding day. It was better than I could have ever imagined! My husband to this day still says, "I've never been to a wedding whose flowers are better than ours. I've never seen anything like it." Laura and her flowers are a must have for not only your dream wedding day but for a comfortable, positive, reassuring planning process.
