Last week, a local deputy passed away unexpectedly at only 45 years old, leaving behind his wife…read moreand teenage twins. His daughter had one simple, heartfelt request: to fill the room with beautiful, abundant flowers to honor her dad. I reached out to Sponseller's on Friday, June 13, explaining a heartbreaking situation and the urgency--we had just three days until the memorial service on Monday. I informed Rick that my nonprofit, Making Everything Good, would be fundraising to help make the daughter's wish come true. Without hesitation, Rick said he was up for the mission. I initially approved $1,000 in flowers, but as the fundraiser quickly grew over the weekend, we stayed in close contact and ultimately increased the order to $2,500 worth of floral arrangements. Not once did Rick or his team hesitate. They poured heart and talent into creating stunning floral masterpieces, all delivered to the church ahead of the service. Their compassion, flexibility, and craftsmanship helped turn a grieving daughter's wish into a beautiful reality.

The bride wanted a natural look that incorporated a blue cornflower ribbon motif that was her theme. The arrangements exceeded our expectations! Stephanie was a joy to work with as we planned for the event. She created lovely centerpieces, beautiful bouquets for the bride and bridal party, gorgeous arrangements for the church and a beautifully created halo and basket of roses for the flower girl. I would highly recommend Stephanie at Sponsellers for anyone looking for arrangements for their next special day. Thank you, Stephanie!!

Where do I begin. I knew from day one that I would have Shamci, owner and creative designer of…read morePlatinum Sofreh, transfer our vision into reality, she is just phenomenal. I contacted Shamci last year, however our wedding date got postponed after a traumatic event. Throughout she followed up to see how I was doing, very caring and genuine like she was my aunt. She kept reinforcing positive energy throughout and reassured us that once our date is finalized I would be in great hands. From the initial consultation to before, during, and after our wedding I was in love. Shamci was so attentive to every detail along the way ensuring everything went smoothly and fun to work with. Shamci and her team tackled everything from our beautiful bridal suite, and planning all aspects of our wedding from A to Z. They provided full service and day of planning, all flower arrangements (bridal, bridesmaids, groom and groomsmen boutonnieres, and parents corsages ), centerpieces, table card, sweetheart table, multiple ceremonies at the different locations, and not to mention pipe and drape which added a romantic touch to our "Sofreh" . Our "Sofreh" was one of the most beautiful features of our wedding, expressive of our personalities, it was absolutely magical. Further, having Mr. Saman at our "Sofreh" with his beautiful speach , explaining the history and traditions behind the traditional Iranian "Sofreh" with its meaning and connecting it to our story was unexpected and touched everyone. My husband and I loved working with Shamci, she was by our side from day one, the early morning hours leading up to our wedding day and early morning hours following our wedding. Shamci and her team were so warm, friendly, and very detail oriented. No two brides are the same either, she made our wedding so unique and a reflection of us. She was just as excited as we were and couldn't wait to witness our Big Day and made it like those only seen in fairy tales. Bottom line: you need Shamci by your side, if you think you can enjoy your wedding and plan it all by yourself.. well think twice. Being surrounded by family in the hotel food and beverage industry, I can vouch how critical it was to have Shamci and her team by our side. Great weddings don't just happen, with her eye for detail she was able to create and combine style and glamour to our special day making our day unforgettable. Everyone loved working with her and she was a joy. We can't wait to work with her again in the future. I highly recommend hiring Platinum Sofreh for ALL your special events which is transparent in her work! Thank you so much Shamci we can't thank you enough and miss you and your energy!
