Monica Chimes Floral - Centerpiece - Florists Near Me - West Harrison, New York

I was introduced to this long-standing business in my community through a gift I received recently. Through no fault of their own, the large floral arrangement contained some flowers that did not age well. This business could not have handled the situation more graciously nor more professionally, and with great speed and understanding. This kind of response from a business is what makes customers remember the company & happily refer others to this business due to their generosity, their value for money, and their desire to always please their customer. I am so glad I was introduced to Monica's Chimes. read more

Monica and her team just recently did the flowers for our whole wedding weekend and they did a phenomenal job. From the rehearsal dinner, chuppah, table centerpieces, and the bouquet - everything was above and beyond our expectations. As if they didn't provide enough, Monica also mailed us a small jar filled with flower pedals from our special day. We are so grateful for the amazing job they did and I would recommend them to anyone and everyone! read more

Monica Chimes Floral went above and beyond at our event!! Our flowers were exactly what I had asked for and the flower arrangements were absolutely beautiful. I had asked Monica for very unique centerpieces. Her answer was always that she can do anything I wanted. Any floral arrangement she put together was so pretty. Monica also went above and beyond at our event when the staff did not do their jobs. She stepped in and did whatever was needed in order to make me happy and have a successful event. Monica knows the floral business and arranges flowers to perfection. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her. read more

My husband and I decided to go with Monica Chimes and her team, and we are so happy we did. They are professional, punctual and of course, the most beautiful and freshest flowers. Monica was so great to work with. She understood what I wanted, and turned it into beautiful art. I had a vision of what I wanted my flowers to be , and she delivered my vision and so much more! My wedding pictures came out beautiful, because my photographer did an amazing job, and Monica Chimes made such a beautiful canvas for him to shoot with. From center pieces to bouquets to boutonnière's. read more

Monica did the flowers for my backyard micro wedding and I can not recommend her highly enough. She was the first vendor I spoke with before I had enlisted a planner, and I barely knew what I wanted, but she was understanding, creative, patient, and kind. She totally captured what was in my head and took it to another level to create gorgeous arrangements that were each a little unique but came together in a beautifully cohesive look - from the arbor, centerpieces, bouquets, and cake flowers. I wasn't sure if our modest budget would constrain us but what she helped create was better than I could have imagined. Simple yet stunning and totally elevated our intimate celebration. I cannot wait for another occasion to work with Monica, Melissa, and team again! read more

All I can say is WOW! I cannot thank Monica enough for putting together such beautiful and creative arrangements for my bridal shower. I am amazed by her attention to detail and color--from the little bud vases and creamers, to the flowers beautifully pouring out of decorative lanterns, to the big beautiful bouquet with which my fiance surprised me at the end of the event! Monica and her team truly helped make this day all the more special for me, and I am incredibly grateful that my mother and I have found her for not just my bridal shower, but also my wedding day. We are excited to continue working with her! read more

Decided to order a last minute flower delivery for a birthday today in W Harrison. I placed my order at 9 AM online with Monica Chimes Floral after being deterred by other mainstream floral delivery add-on prices. I selected the Sun glow Blooms standard sized arrangement from the selection on the website and during lunch, the beautiful flowers were delivered. I couldn't be happier with how colorful and fresh the presentation was, as well as the quick processing and delivery time. My significant other loved them! So much better than some flower-mill website with lots of tacked on fees. read more

Monica Chimes did the flowers for my fathers wake this past Wednesday. They we absolutely beautiful. I will recommend her to all.

Monica did the flowers for my wedding and they were AMAZING!! Flowers were the most important thing for me, I cared more about the flowers than my dress. And I'm so glad I chose to with them. She totally got my vision for the table arrangements and my bouquet was beautiful. Also I got back from my honeymoon and the flowers still looked beautiful, they lasted a while. read more

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND - NIGHTMARE! We had an absolutely horrible experience using Monica Chimes as our (almost) wedding florist. Our original wedding was planned to be at Glen Island, who makes you choose a florist from a list of four vendors. You're not allowed to choose your own florist. Of the list of florists Monica was the only one not astronomically priced, so we went with her. (My advice to future brides would be to negotiate with your venue to allow you to choose your own florist!) We had one initial phone conversation with Monica when we secured our contract with her where we went over a draft very basic vision of what we were planning. She had seemed nice enough at the time. Fast forward several months, we had to cancel our wedding at Glen Island due to NYS Covid restrictions. We had told Monica our change of venue. We also updated her on a new vision for centerpieces to fit a more intimate small-scale wedding. I had noticed in the contract that contract was "final" 30 days prior to the event. Monica nor her assistant had ever reached out to me. I had to reach out to her prior to the 30 days to schedule a meeting to see some mock centerpieces. She wouldn't allow me an in-person meeting due to Covid 60 days out, so her assistant Melissa insisted I wait until 32 days out to have a facetime (in which it would really be too late to find a new vendor if you were unhappy). When it was time for our facetime the flowers that Monica presented to me were TRULY PITTIFUL. There were barely any florals, they didn't match my updated vision I had sent her, and she stated that the table setting was exactly what Glen Island would be having ....but that wasn't my venue anymore. We ended up deciding to not go with Monica as we felt that she wouldn't be able to execute our vision properly. When we let her know she was rude and unprofessional towards us. I'm so appalled that a small business owner, let alone someone you hire to make sure your wedding day is your dream day, would be such a horrible human. I would not recommend Monica to any future brides and I'm appalled at the excuse of a vendor she states to be. read more

I called this florist in a desperate need for a last minute delivery and needless to say they were extremely accommodating and willing to get the arrangement where it needed to be in a hurry for me. Not only did they get the flowers to their desired location, they were unique and absolutely magnificent! Their arrangements are stunning, the staff is super friendly and the flowers ended up lasting a whole lot longer than a week! Thank you for a quick turn around and fabulous quality! I can't say enough about Monica Chimes Floral read more

I couldn't have been more in love with the centerpieces provided by Monica Chimes for a party I threw last year. Yes, I forgot to review. I had called a few of the highly recommended places and I was being quoted prices about $30-$50 more per centerpiece and I was not a happy camper. I tried Monica Chimes and besides the fact that she's absolutely delightful, she actually helped me pick the centerpieces. I only listed one or two flowers that were an absolute no-no and then a few flowers I would love to see plus one or two other things. I gave her the venue information and she was already familiar with it and knew exactly what to do. Fast, painless and super helpful. Everything was set up when I got there and looked absolutely amazing. Oh and did I mention this was less than two weeks before the event? Definite five star florist. read more

Monica and her team made my floral visions for our wedding a reality. I simply gave Monica photos of my ideas and told her my budget and she worked her magic. I visited other florists and did not feel the warm connection I did with Monica. She was kind and enthusiastic from the very beginning. The day of our wedding, our table centerpieces were simple, yet elegant. I received so many compliments about them. I cannot say enough how much I absolutely LOVED my bouquet. It was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. I will be sure to recommend Monica and her entire team to anyone looking for a talented and professional florist! read more

Monica Chimes did the flowers for my wedding, and they were just exquisite - my bouquet was exactly what I had envisioned and asked for - and more! She was also responsive and accommodating with last minute additions. So many people asked me who did the flowers and remarked on their beauty. I couldn't be happier or recommend her (and her team) more highly! read more

First I have to say that I never write reviews but felt compelled to write this one after having experienced the worst business and customer service I have had in my entire life. Monica Chimes Floral, Inc. in West Harrison, New York was not only the worst wedding vendor experience I had while planning my wedding in June but Monica personally is one of the worst people I have ever met and dealt with. Wedding planning was extremely enjoyable for me and I fell in love with the process. I planned my wedding entirely on my own with the help of my wonderful mother. I really did my research and took my time finding what I thought were the perfect vendors for me. I practically became a botanist, learning about and planning the flowers for the wedding and for the bouquets for me and my bridesmaids. I am a very caring, personable person so finding vendors that were pleasant and I connected with was important to me as well. I was completely shocked about my error in judgment about Monica and her team and unfortunately when I found out it was too late and the damage had been done. One of Monica's employees was assigned to my wedding. Clearly, Monica has terrible judgment to allow someone like this employee to represent her company. Right before our photos were to start, the bouquets were dropped off in the room where we were getting ready. We did not see them being dropped off. They were dropped off without anyone telling us, or calling us that morning, to let us know that the bouquets we thought we ordered, were not the bouquets we were getting! The flower colors in the bouquets for my bouquet and the four bridesmaids were TOTALLY INCORRECT. Not only did I clearly tell Monica and her employee that I ONLY wanted peach, yellow, white and blue flowers MANY times (they knew since the samples of the centerpieces were those colors) but it was clearly written in our contract. I even created and sent them my own booklet of pictures and descriptions detailing EVERYTHING I wanted specifically for the bouquets, aisle decorations, cocktail flowers, etc. Monica's employee even promised me that she would send me a picture of everything the day before the wedding, and of course this never happened. Not only did the bouquets have bright hot pink flowers but the "blue" was actually purple. These are two colors that I definitely did not want, did not fit into my color scheme and were not listed in the contract. Not only was there pink, but they picked the worst type of flower for a bouquet, ones that instantly fell apart. Another issue we had with the flowers was the vases they used for the flowers placed down the aisle were supposed to be in low galvanized buckets (also in the contract) and discussed with them numerous times, but instead they were in tall, smooth, silver vases. Sadly, messing up the flowers on the most important day of my life is not even the worst part of it. The worst part of the experience was dealing with Monica and her total lack of customer service skills. I work in Sales and know just how important good customer service is. I was flabbergasted to find out how Monica aka Monica Chimes Floral, Inc. handled it. I was away on my honeymoon and out of the kindness of her heart, my mom decided to call Monica and let her know how upset we were about the bouquets so that I did not have to deal with it once I got home. Instead of apologizing for the crucial mistake, Monica was extremely nasty and defensive. She suggested that we contact the photographer and have her change the color of the pink flowers in all of our photographs! She said there was nothing she could do, it was over. She said she would refund $200 for the actual cost of the pink flowers that were in 5 bouquets. After this phone call, my mom realized how insulting this was and also, how rude Monica was on the phone. She wrote an email to her, expressing this and that she would write a negative review. Monica said during that call "I will refund you all of your money if you sign papers saying you will not write a negative review or take me to Small Claims Court." My mom agreed. Monica would not do this through the mail so my parents had to travel to Westchester when Monica herself did not have the decency to show up at the store, but sent another employee. My mom saw the check - it was for $275 - which was the price of all five bouquets. This was not what we agreed to. It was not worth $275 for us to not write a negative review and we were further infuriated that she misrepresented the refund on the telephone. We will admit, for the full price of the wedding flowers, we were going to agree to not write a negative review. But alas... Do yourself a favor and do not do business with such a mean, awful person (when we were in the store to sign the papers, the employee called her to explain the misunderstanding, and she immediately started screaming at my mom over the phone) and add stress and uncertainty to such a special day? read more

We discovered Monica Chimes after two very frustrating rounds with other florists who simply wouldn't step to the plate and make suggestions or offer any guidance. We began to think florists were just all flakes. Monica proved us wrong, big time, and we couldn't have been happier with the results. She and her staff were not just a delight to work with -- they delivered bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces and other accent arrangements that were truly warm and lovely. Everyone commented on how gorgeous the flowers were, and in the end we felt not just cared for and listened to but pampered. Highly recommended. read more

We used Monica Chimes Floral for our daughter's recent Bat Mitzvah at the Renaissance Westchester. Throughout the planning, Monica and Michelle were extremely attentive and professional. They made us feel like our event was their only concern. The arrangements they provided were exquisite, truly gorgeous, and beyond our expectations. Many guests commented on how beautiful the arrangements were, and took flowers home with them. Ours lasted for two more weeks! Monica Chimes Floral really delivered for us, at a great price! Their expertise added the sparkle and creativity that made our daughter's Bat Mitzvah a magical event. read more

I have been looking forward to writing my review of Monica Chimes Floral since we first met with Monica a few months before our wedding - and even more thrilled to write it now that our wedding was just a few weeks ago. She was specifically and enthusiastically recommended by staff at our wedding venue - the NY Botanical Gardens. We were beyond thrilled with the floral details she and our staff set up for our wedding - so many compliments from our family and friends! Most of all, Monica is truly a pleasure to meet and work with - has this uncanny ability to extract from your inarticulate, floral-novice ramblings and propose elegant, gorgeous ideas - and keep you on or below budget! For our wedding, she provided an absolutely gorgeous arch with curly willow, greens and white roses - the stuff of fantasies! Our centerpieces were flawless (we enjoyed them for two weeks after our wedding), my bouquet was perfect and overall, we just loved everything - the floral decor really pulled together our wedding venue - our goal was "elegant understatement" and everything about her work was simply stunning. Best of all, Monica is straightforward and incredibly sweet and helpful in every way. Truly, she and her staff made our day so special and beautiful, we cannot recommend her enough! read more

Monica, I can not express how happy I was when I saw my bouquet. It looked exactly how I wanted it, so elegant! Monica is very charming, attentive and super talented. She made me feel assured that I will have a beautiful wedding from our first conversation with her, and I did, indeed. All the guests have been raving about how stunning the wedding was, thanks to her eyes for beauty, simplicity yet elegance, and attention to detail. My wedding would not be complete without her. We are now planning our second wedding in my home town, and my mom keeps telling me to ask the florist to follow Monica's design (but trust me, it's really hard to match). She also went above and beyond to ensure our wedding is perfect. She helped me pick out the chair cover and the beautiful purple bows to fit into the entire wedding theme. When she went to another wedding and saw that a spandex chair cover doesn't turn out as nicely as she thought, she immediately emailed me and suggested me change to a traditional chair cover. Look, chair cover is not under her scope, she only helped me rent from another vendor. Her suggestion showed how much she really cared, and that went a long way. Monica, thanks so much for making my dream wedding come true! My husband, who has very limited knowledge about flowers, also mentioned how amazing the flowers were. We wish you many more happy brides and grooms (and MOG / MOB). Love from J&E. read more
