November 23rd 2013 was a dream come true to me and i have Vivian to thank for that! From the first day we met till the day of my wedding, Vivian was by my side the entire journey. She is reliable, creative, organized, and just amazing! Truly one of a kind. Vivian took care of keeping in touch with the vendors, keeping my mother in line when she went a little crazy and made sure things went my way and that i was happy. I could sit here and write a million things but it would all come down to how AMAZING the work she does and her as a person are! read more

Where do I begin?! After meeting with ELEVEN flower vendors, I finally found Vivian. Our connection was immediate, and whoever doesn't tell you this is important is lying! When my mother and I walked in to our first meeting with Vivian, there, in front of us stood an arrangement with the exact same flowers color scheme I wanted for my own upcoming wedding. Then we sat down, and we both just fell in love. Not only with her simply incredible personality, but her stellar flowers as well. She makes you feel so comfortable. I swear that I am looking for an excuse to go back and visit with her :) The day of my wedding finally arrived, and I was so calm knowing Vivian was there to make my venue look spectacular. My floral arrangements were dripping with peonies and my bouquet was exactly what I had envisioned. There were candles in every nook of my venue, making the place look spectacularly romantic. All in all, Vivian outdid herself. So blessed she was available for our big day. Her attention to detail is immaculate. You are a lucky bride if you are able to snag Ms. Colls! read more

A dream is a wish your heart makes....when your fast asleep. Vivian made my dreams come true, that day she met me. There is no person in this industry like Vivian. No one. From her attention to detail, to warm personality, Vivian Colls and her team put together the most beautiful arrangements I have ever seen. I first met Vivian at my venue, the Coral Gables Country Club, where all she had was a notebook, her assistant, and me with my scatter brained ideas. I told her I wanted something classy, but not over the top, kind of rustic..but what I remember telling her vividly was " I want whomever is in my wedding to fell in love, and happy. If they're with someone they're more in love, if they're single they're more in love with life". Flash forward 8 months later, and we're in crunch time and Vivian is answering my emails, puttin out fires with vendors, going above and beyond! I remember going back and forth on my ideas for flowers, for arrangements, because I knew what I didn't want ( crazy flower arrangements) but couldn't quite pinpoint what I wanted besides the manzanita trees. Boy, did she make sense out of my crazy head! What I loved the most about Vivian is once I told her my budget, not once did she try to pressure me to go bigger or suggest flowers or arrangements that were clearly out of my price range. And even with that, she made my wedding day look like a million dollars! She was there from the rehearsal, to the day of, and not once left my side and was never too far away from me in case I needed her. When I saw my ceremony chuppah and reception room for the first time I was breathless. I've finally been able to watch a wedding video my friend did for me and even now is when I can appreciate all the details that went into the wedding even more. Vivian is proof that with great taste you don't need to go over the top . I don't think even in my dreams I could've pictured a more perfect set-up. And the best part? My guests were so happy, and felt EXACTLY how I wanted them to feel : enchanted, warm, and full of love and happiness. Vivian Colls and her team set the tone, and are the standard for excellence and unique creations. read more

Vivian was my life savor! Two weeks before my wedding, my caterers backed out and my to do list was a mile long. She not only stayed within my budget, but helped me find all the other vendors I needed. Our wedding day was a dream come true and Vivian was the fairy godmother who worked her magic! I've since used her for different events and recommend her and her team to everyone I know. I can't say enough good things about Vivian, who is now like a part of the family! read more

Vivian is the only florist I met with that was actually passionate about what she does and not just in it for the $. She is a true artist and very creative. This is great as far as floral design but not so great when it comes to office organization and responding to emails, texts, and calls. Creative people should be left to create and hire someone else to handle everyday office tasks and responding to clients. Flowers for my wedding were beautiful and just what I wanted. The reason for not giving a perfect review is that I dealt with a lot of unnecessary aggravation even when trying to meet up for the consultation and this continued up until the wedding. Consultation was rescheduled twice, both at the last minute. After consultation it took weeks of me following up to finally get a quote. A few months before the wedding I had to make a few minor changes to the invoice and after reaching out countless times I was not given a revised final invoice until the week of my wedding! My final meeting to finalize everything was also rescheduled at the last minute several times even though I changed my whole schedule to accommodate her. A wedding is stressful enough and having to chase down a vendor is not something I wanted to deal with. Many texts and calls when unanswered throughout the process and even a very nice thank you text I sent after my wedding was ignored. I do not think Vivian ignores to be mean I just think she spreads herself way too thin and tries to do too much. If she hired a support staff to run the everyday office tasks as I suggested above it would make her business so much better. My flowers came out beautifully and at the last minute she pulled everything together but if you want things finalized and organized months ahead of time that just won't happen. read more

While planning our destination wedding in Miami my husband and I met with a handful of florists in the area, and frankly, were overall unimpressed and underwhelmed, and went back to NY without having secured a florist. Less than 2 months before our big day we decided we NEEDED to find a florist asap, and contacted Vivian Colls at the recommendation of our wedding planner (Cristi G Events). We never met in person prior to our wedding, but we knew from our first few phone calls that we wanted Vivian and her team as our florist. Her assistant Dany was a pleasure to work with, always available to answer our questions and run ideas by. Vivian is very talented at what she does, so I didn't want to give her too much direction or inhibit her creatively. I just let her know the overall colors and style we were going for and let her run with it. I told her "we want a classic style with white, gold, natural browns and greenery" and sent along a few photos of bouquets and centerpieces we liked. We never went in for a "mock-up" of our wedding day florals, so everything was going to be a surprise. We were thrilled and completely impressed with what she put together for our wedding day. Everything was BETTER than any of the photos I sent her. Our flowers, candles and overall set-up were perfection. Weeks after the wedding, guests are still complementing us on our décor and flowers. My husband and I are so happy we chose Vivian Colls as our florist and are confident no other florist in Miami could have done as beautiful a job. Thank you Vivian and Dany for our stunning wedding décor! read more

Vivian was the florist for my wedding. She provided excellent floral service, the arrangements looked fresh and exactly how I wanted. Vivian has a super efficient team and her quality is superb. She is flexible and understanding with brides on a tight budget. read more

She was such a great personality. She was one of the recommended vendors our wedding planner gave us. Unfortunately we didn't go with her as she was way out of our price range. She did take almost 2 weeks to give us our proposal, even though she said she would have it that same night or the next day. She also added stuff we said we didn't want to our proposal. We ended up going with another company that was exactly half the price she was. read more

Vivian and Dany are rockstars! The event that I was planning from LA was taking place in Miami, and needless to say, it was not an easy task! Both Vivian and Dany communicated thoroughly, and their attention to detail resulted in an amazing flower wall, an amazing green wall, and beautiful flower arrangements that my client loved. They executed my vision clearly even though it was not always very well communicated on my part. If you need a team that has the best customer service, and can perfectly execute your vision without missing a beat, then Vivian Colls Events is your best bet! read more

Vivian Colls, is the absolute "MUST-HAVE" florist for your wedding. She recently did the flowers for our wedding and her work was absolutely stunning. Every last detail was executed to perfection. Not only is her work SUPERB, but the service you receive when dealing with Vivian is top notch. She is a lovely person and a delight to work with. She not only handled every aspect of the floral design for our wedding but also handled all the day of coordinating with tremendous professionalism. I did not ever have to go looking for her, she was always two steps ahead of me making sure I could enjoy my special day. She is wonderful and I hope to have another large event soon just to be able to work with her again. Everyone at the wedding was speechless upon seeing every floral design she made (centerpieces, garlands, accent florals, and escort card set up). I drew her a picture of what I wanted for my escort cards and she made it come to life in the most amazing way where it was better than I could have imagined it. She is truly an artist. If you want unique, breathtakingly beautiful florals for your special day, Vivian Colls is the peron to call. Thank you Vivian you made our most special day even more memorable than we could have ever imagined. read more

Vivian did my full flower arrangements for my wedding in 2008. She did an AMAZING job. Aside from her creativeness and brining to life what I envisioned, she was very easy to work with & accommodating. I was living in Naples at the time & planning my wedding in St. Hugh with a reception at the Rusty Pelican. I'm a very hands on person, and she brought out the trust to let me let her handle it all 100%. She was very accommodating with her prices, schedule to meet with me & communicating. Now, 6 years later we are expecting a baby and there is no one else I would consider except for Vivian to do our flowers for our upcoming baby shower. I am super excited and can't wait to see what she will create. I am fascinated with her work and have seen through social media how her work & professionalism has continued to grow. Vivian is the one to go with for all your floral needs. #VivianColls #FlowersByVivianColls read more
