Theresa at Dogwood Floral Design was fantastic! She completely understood the look and style we were going for. After a somewhat last minute ceremony venue change, she was also very helpful in coming up with some ideas for floral decor in the new space. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous, exactly what I wanted! In terms of cost, I think her prices were quite reasonable and the finished product well worth it!

Flowers were the biggest stress vendor-wise in my wedding. I have never been a fan of flowers and had a very specific vision for my centerpieces because of that. I met with various florist and the prices that they quoted were outrageous and I left most of the appointments more stressed out than when I walked in the door. When my mother and I met with Theresa, she was the first florist that I left feeling calm and hopeful. She worked with my idea and helped me make it more budget friendly. I was able to tell her my overall wedding vision and she gave such great advice as to how and where the flowers fit into my vision.The flowers were absolutely amazing. My bouquet was breathtaking and the bridesmaids flowers gave exactly the look that I had pictured. Theresa took my vision and made it a hundred times better. She truly made my vision sparkle. All of my guests absolutely loved the centerpieces and they lasted weeks on my table!There was one bit of miscommunication but as soon as it was realized Theresa was prompt and flexible in remedying. I would highly recommend Theresa, I'm hoping to work with her in the future!

Both my sister and I used Dogwood Floral for our Weddings - we got married 4 months apart, she was December and had a Christmas Winter theme and I was in April and had a Spring theme - Theresa was great! She has great ideas and also can understand the look that you're going for. We were both so happy and excited with ALL the flowers, from the bridesmaids bouquets, the bridal bouquets and the centerpieces!

Meeting and working with Theresa was beyond amazing. I was one of those brides that did not have much floral direction - besides knowing my color scheme and the fact of wanting to use my own glassware (mason jars & milk jars). With an elegant venue (Barn at Gibbet Hill, Groton MA ) and the very few ideas I had - Theresa put it all together and then some. She was able to bring together AMAZING colors and GORGEOUS flowers to add that perfect touch to the venue. The bridal and bridesmaid bouquets were equally amazing! The only down side was the one and only flower I said 'no' to was used for mothers corsages & boutonnières. But the way she incorporated that specific flower - it matched perfectly and still worked - so it was an okay oversight. Theresa - thank you for everything - you were amazing and your work proves how dedicated you are & how much you truly love your work! I was so happy with her work - I had to call her in between wedding & honeymoon just to say thank you! !

I just read a review about a Chuppah Theresa was unable to do and was quite surprised. She decorated out Chuppa exactly the way I imagined it in my mind...it was beautiful beyond words. My bouquet and bridesmaids bouquets were also exactly as I had discussed with her as well. A little delay in responsiveness sometimes, but always ultimately heard back from her and got exactly what I wanted. Great value!

I was on a TIGHT budget for my wedding and, after realizing my quote was too much, I went back to the florist and she worked with me to stay within my budget AND give me beautiful flowers. She came up with lots of options...only thing I MIGHT complain about was that the flowers didn't match the bridesmaid dresses but they did still photograph nicely.

Theresa and her team did an absolutely fabulous job with my bridal bouquet, and my wedding parties flowers. I breifly met with Theresa, and she knew exactly what I wanted for my bouquet. I could not have asked for a better florist! I would highly recommend her company to anyone for any occasion! :)

It was a big disappointment for us.Theresa was nice but the work was not great.- The brides bouquet wasnt as expected. Was supposed to be cascading style but not sure what style it eneded up in.- She wasnt comfortable decorating the CHuppah - which she emailed us 2 days prior to the wedding that she has never done it before. It was a disaster.- The bridesmaid flowers were old and rotten.- Boutonniere were not as expected and discussed. Corsages were not great either. One of the mothers didnt end up wearing them.- We told her not to have a pin for the Boutonniere for the ring bearer. SHe made sure she had a pin. Ofcourse we did not make him wear either.- Center pieces were the only things as we had expected.She is nice. But requires more experience before I would recommend her to anyone.

When I first started planning my wedding I had a vision...glam and bling. When I met with Theresa she steered me in the right direction at the same time keeping in mind my budget. For the whole year of planning Theresa was always willing to give me suggestions, met with me and add onto my ever growing list of wants and questions. I cannot tell you how floored I was when she walked through the door with my bouquet - it wasn't anything I pictured in my head - it was SO much better. I still get all giddy thinking about it. The ceremony set up was gorgeous and exactly what I wanted and the centerpieces were to die for. Everyone raved about them - and my family is HARD to please! I can't thank her enough for making my vision a reality - it was simply amazing.

Theresa is fabulous! From the moment I talked to her on the phone, she knew exactly what I wanted. She is extremely nice and very easy to work with. My bouquet was breathtaking as well as the bridesmaid's bouquets. She also did all of the centerpieces and they were gorgeous, very full and very colorful. I think she was reasonably priced as well, especially for the quality of her work. Would definitely use her again and I highly recommend her to anyone!

Working with Theresa at Dogwood Floral was a great experience. I couldn't have been happier with the way my flowers turned out and everyone else at the wedding couldn't stop complimenting them! The best part of the whole thing is that I just told Theresa an idea of what I liked, gave her color swatches and didn't see the final product until that day, and I was never once nervous that they were going to turn out good, and they turned out 100% better than I ever would have expected...BEAUTIFUL!!! Theresa was also very nice to work within my budget and never had any hidden fees.

I can not express how much i loved my flowers for my wedding! Working with Theresa from Dogwood floral was so easy, i had no clue what i wanted i just knew purple and green. Theresa had lots of suggestions, in the end a found a picture of what i wanted my bouquet to resemble. I think her version was better! My center pieces were tin buckets filled with flowers and had small hanging tin buckets for my isle decorations and they looked so elegant! All my guests raved about them, even the guys!

I loved working with Dogwood Floral Design. She was super responsive on email ( as I work and that is how I communicated with most of my vendors). She was very flexible when I changed my wedding colors half way through. She showed up on time with all my flowers and they were GORGEOUS! You could tell she listened to every last detail. An absolute pleasure to work with!! I even spent the money to preserve my bouquet because it was that beautiful. Thanks again Dogwood!!

Her flower design were beatiful. I thought my bouquet of black magic roses and the wedding table arrangements looked beautiful. The trouble was she was hard to contact. I had questions and she didn't respond to me for a over a week sometimes. I was also a bit upset when I walked down the aisle and found that the aisle flowers I had ordered weren't there. I asked my family if they had been told anything, but they hadn't heard anything from the florist. I learned later that she thought the chair bows were enough decoration. I realized when I saw the chairs dressed that she had a good point. I was upset though because no one was ever notified of her decision, and everyone knows the last thing a bride needs on her wedding day is more stress.
