Every detail was careful thought out and brilliantly executed. The flowers were amazing (above and beyond what I imagined). Here are some things you can't see from the pictures. Gather was wonderful to work with every step of the way. They were professional and organized, working tirelessly to make sure our wedding was how we imagined. Cost was a big issue for us, however we told gather what we wanted and gave them our budget and they took care of the rest. An example of something I thought was very clever was that they provided an emergency basket with band aids, stain removal wipes, mending kits, snacks and touch up make up. Gather coordinated with all our vendors so we didn't have to worry about a thing. When issues came up such as broken vases due to transport or seating arrangement that had to be updated, these were taken care of swiftly and without having to bother us. We didn't find out about some until after the wedding and our family members filled us in. I wholeheartedly recommend gather!

The ambiance she created was magical and masterful -- my husband and I were literally in awe the whole night! I may be biased, but I can honestly say she helped create the most beautiful wedding I've ever seen -- many guests told me the same thing! In addition to her incredible work on the wedding day, Amy was great to work with from the very beginning, really listening to what I wanted, incorporating feedback, and sharing great ideas of her own. She is highly creative, detail-oriented, professional, and easy to work with. I could not have been happier with how everything turned out. I cannot say enough good things about Gather and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top notch wedding florist that can help bring your vision to life and then some!!!

TARA IS AMAZING!…read more From the start I knew Tara was perfect for our wedding. She is prompt, organized, and helps you develop your vision and the wedding of your dreams. I am an out of state bride, so she really set my mind at ease with her professionalism and the great communication we had all the way leading up to the day. Her flower arrangements were so elegant and romantic, my bouquet was stunning and my bridesmaids all loved theirs. The flower girls looked adorable in their flower crowns too. Not only were our centerpieces perfect, she made the arbor of our dreams! I couldn't find exactly what I wanted online so I photo-bashed some pictures together to show her what I was thinking in my head. Not only did it look EXACTLY like what we wanted, it was even more beautiful in person. It made for the perfect backdrop for the ceremony and family portraits after. The bouquet was so beautiful, I had it preserved after the ceremony, so I could keep it forever. I really can't say enough how amazing Tara is, and how happy and thankful we are that we chose her for our special day. Thanks again!

I love that she sources flowers straight from her Seattle garden, which made everything feel both personal and seasonal. From our first conversation through the wedding day, Kelly was incredibly receptive, organized, and professional. She took the time to understand our vision, offered thoughtful suggestions, and executed every detail flawlessly. If you want florals that are distinctive, locally sourced, and created with genuine artistry, I cannot recommend Kelly and Botanique highly enough.

Wedding date: July 31, 2018 Wedding venue: Thornewood Castle…read more It is such a delight to work with Kelly. I hired her as my florist for my wedding last year. It was absolutely the best decision I made for my wedding! I DIY-ed my wedding to save some cost on expensive wedding planners. Kelly was referred to me by my caterer and she was the first on their list. Back then we were so busy with our house and I only started to contact florists at the beginning of June (remember my wedding day is July 31, so crazy to contact florists this late). I wrote to several florists and Kelly was the first one responded. We talked on phone about my visions for my wedding, my preferences, my budget and her precious experience at my wedding venue. She told me she would help me in anyway she can since I didn't have a planner and days were so close to my wedding. After the phone call, I knew she was the right person for me immediately. We had an in-person meeting the next week. I must say I had no idea of different styles of bouquet and yes, at that point, less than 7 weeks to my wedding, I didn't even set my mind on color palette yet. Kelly came prepared and she was so patient. We looked at some pictures so she could understand my preferences first then she gave me suggestions. Boy, those suggestions were so to the point and they were exactly what I had in my deep mind but couldn't describe. She helped me to form my vision in details and put everything together. After the meeting, I felt like I could see what my wedding would be. Before our final walk to the venue, Kelly helped me on picking out furniture. I send her lots of pictures of furniture I liked and asked her opinions. Not only did she send me different inspiration pictures for me to get some ideas of what would these pieces of furniture would look like with floral design, but also she gave me suggestions to cut some furniture which looked beautiful but wouldn't go well with my overall flow. She had so much experience and great ideas and I was so grateful that I can decide which furniture to choose quickly and painlessly. On our final walk through, Kelly helped me on deciding the overall floor plan. She was able to picture me the arch design, the welcome table design and dinner head table design. She was so prepared. I was able to see my whole wedding through her description. My wedding ceremony and dinner were outside but dancing place was inside the castle. Kelly kept that in mind and offered me to reuse some flowers outside in decorating dancing room to cut cost. She took notes of what I said in the final walk through and revised her design accordingly. Before the wedding, we had a phone call to finalize everything. I had a hard time on deciding on the aisle for my ceremony. I looked for so many pics but I just didn't love them enough and it was so hard for me to vividly describe my vision to her in my second language over the phone. At some point I just said I would settle on her old design (Kelly had worked at Thornewood Castle several times and she showed me her past work). But Kelly didn't settle and she made every effort to make sure that I didn't settle for my wedding. She kept sending me pictures and described me what she would do for my aisle. Finally we found the perfect aisle design for my wedding. On my wedding day, Kelly arrived earlier as usual and she waited at the gate. Thornewood Castle is known for its beauty and tons of rules. One rule specific is that if any of my vendors enters the property earlier than agreed time, I will be charged for extra hour. Everything she did was so beautiful. She was able to create everything I had in mind and she did even better. She gave me my perfect wedding. I couldn't say enough good things about Kelly. She is professional. She is creative. She is experienced. She cares about her clients. She goes above and beyond. She is so delightful to work with. And she can deal with incident on your wedding (my cake caterer didn't put sugar flowers on my wedding cake, which clearly she supposed to do according to our agreement; Kelly was able to use some eucalyptus to decorate my cake a little to give it an organic look; she took care of it before I even knew there was something wrong with my cake and went all panic and angry). Btw, she kept me on my floral budget! Kelly sent me cards and wrote emails to me after my wedding. She keeps in touch ever since. She doesn't treat her clients just as clients. She dives in to truly understand what you want and makes sure your wedding reflects you. Do work with Kelly. You sure will get way more than a professional and creative florist for your wedding.

She was incredible from start to finish--responsive, thoughtful, sweet, and a creative mastermind! I asked for "whimsical" and she DELIVERED! My photographer and I GASPED when we walked outside and saw the reception hall. I'm still completely obsessed with the vision she made come to life. I gave her my color palette and she took it from there. Sarah sourced a very specific plant I wanted (anthruiums) and she grew a lot of the other flowers at her house. I had the crazy idea to make all the bud vases myself, which she fully encouraged and made work. Having the flowers grown right in Kitsap and handmade bud vases made it that much more special and sweet to us. My guests were also completely obsessed with the florals, candles, and the edible arrangements she made on the table. Yes... edible! There were tomatoes, figs, and kumquats everywhere - she took whimsical to the next level. Every single person came up to me that day and mentioned how amazing the florals were and people still bring it up. Anyway... I will be recommending her to any and all of my friends and family because Sarah was such a joy and she somehow gave us more than we could have even imagined!
