My husband and I have absolutely no complaints about Orchid n Blooms. Of all my vendors, Erica was by far the most responsive. She very rarely took more than 12 hours to respond to my emails, and never failed to respond within 24 hours. Every meeting with both Erica and Scott was both fun and productive! They were one of the few who were able to help us translate our vision into words and into reality. What is more, the final product was beyond what I imagined...in particular, my bouquet, as well as the bridesmaids bouquets, were quite honestly among the most beautiful I have ever seen and demonstrated the creativity and unconventional design that I really wanted. While everything was absolutely gorgeous, these and the ceremony pieces will always stand out in my mind as breathtaking and BETTER than anything I could have done or even described.
Erica and Scott can do it all...I would recommend Orchid n Blooms without a moment of hesitation!

Erica can spin magic out of nothing.
We had a ridiculously tight budget for flowers and decor but what Erica was able to create with that budget completely blew us and our guests away.
I don't really have the words to describe it- the colors, the textures, the thoughtful accents (we are both 'foodies' and she incorporated edible elements in the arrangements to carry our foodie theme in the space- asparagus, avocados, artichokes, etc). I gave her vague guidelines for color and texture and she created something that was beyond my wildest imagination! Guests are still commenting about the floral arrangements!
Creativity is only one aspect I can praise about her, however. Thoughtfulness is another. My mom became ill and was hospitalized for several weeks before the wedding, and she was still very weak. We thought that she would only be able to stay for the ceremony and part of dinner and would then need to go back to the hotel room to rest. Erica said that since she was onsite anyway, she would be happy to stay with her and fetch her anything she needed and sit with her in the hotel. She will forever have my loyalty for that. We didn't need to take her up on the offer, but what florist would offer to go above and beyond like that??
The combination of creativity, service, professionalism and value is the reason I would recommend Orchids N' Blooms again...

Our flowers were stunning, absolutely everything we asked for and more. We even had guests take home the centerpieces after the wedding, and they stayed fresh for nearly two weeks!

Great florist for weddings and special events. I worked with Erica to put together the flowers for an October wedding. I sent Orchids 'n Blooms a list of the flowers I wanted for the wedding, which included a few less-than-traditional requests. They quickly responded with a short document summarizing the request, with a price quote that beat all other florists I spoke to.
Erica understood exactly what I was looking for and was always quick to respond to emails. She met me in Boston to discuss the order in person, and then delivered all of the flowers on schedule to three separate locations on the wedding day. I'd absolutely use them again.

Erica and Scott did an amazing job on our wedding. Erica was very responsive and always accommodating to my schedule. They were so flexible with everything I wanted to include, exclude, or change. I knew right away they were the florist for us, when at our first meeting they asked me if costs were not a factor, what my ideal wedding look would like. From that moment on, we worked on making my dream wedding come true... and they really delivered (within our budget!). I designed my centerpieces and worked so closely with Erica to fine tune exactly what I wanted the finished product to look like. Erica and Scott did a fantastic job in piecing together the look I was trying to get and also made some great recommendations. We let their creativity fly with our cocktail tables and altar flowers, and were beyond pleased with the outcome. We were also able to purchase our own hardware for the centerpieces which many florists don't even allow. This saved us a ton and enabled us to get the absolute most out of our floral budget. Orchids N’ Bloom are wonderful! We’d highly recommend them to any couple looking for great flowers, personalization, amazing creativity… all at an affordable price! Thanks Erica & Scott for making our wedding beautiful!!

Orchids N’ Blooms designed our beautiful wedding with absolute originality and creativity. Erica and her team worked tirelessly to meet all of our needs, despite the challenges of an out-of-state wedding. They met with us to discuss the style we had in mind for our wedding then created stunning centerpieces that surpassed our imaginations. On top of that, they designed my bouquet to compliment my wedding dress! They gave us the peace of mind to be able to relax and thoroughly enjoy our special day.
We are still receiving compliments for the beautiful and unique floral designs and table settings at our reception! The wedding was far beyond anything Jonathan and I could have dreamed or hoped for. We highly recommend Orchids N’ Blooms to anyone looking to set their wedding apart from the norm.

After months of trying unsuccessfully to finalize with another florist, I decided start my search over and came across Orchids N' Blooms on Wedding Wire. I contacted them with a competitor's quote and received a counter-quote the same day. Erica always responds quickly and she was even able to squeeze us into her busy Memorial Day weekend for an in-person consultation. My now-husband and I were sold before we walked out of her studio and we're so glad we decided to book her! She improved on our ideas while staying within our budget (with orchids!) and the bouquets, centerpieces, corsages, boutonnieres, ceremony flowers, EVERYTHING were beautiful! So much so that some of our guests stole some arrangements after the reception! It's a month after my wedding and some of my centerpiece orchids are alive and thriving. Whether you're on a tight budget or no budget, booking with Orchids N' Blooms will be one of the best wedding decisions you can make. They're fantastic!

erica was so wonderful to work with. i used orchids n blooms to provide both flowers and tablecloths for my wedding. everything looked beautiful! i had changed my color scheme halfway through the process and erica was super flexible to just go with the flow and provide options for my new ideas. she did a great job interpreting my ideas into really unique arrangements and provided organized set-up and removal of the linens as well. just a pleasure to have as a vendor during what is otherwise a stressful planning time!

Erica and her team are an absolute delight to work with! She spent hours responding to my many emails and inquiries and was dedicated to making sure every detail was addressed. The results were stunning!

To be honest, ONB was the 5th (and final) florist we interviewed after months of online research and looking through reviews. We ended up booking them because they were the only ones who seemed to really "get" our vision. Although I did not fully know what I wanted at first, I had a general idea and then they spent a lot of time helping us pull our whole look together. They also helped us stay within our
budget, which although relatively sizable, did not seem to be a priority for other florist studios.
In the end our flowers were absolutely gorgeous. My mother and aunt - two very tough critics throughout the planning process, were beyond impressed. My bouquet must have lasted a good week after the wedding and everyone else took the centerpieces home (there were literally none left for us!).
We definitely recommend them, based on the time they spent with us and on their attention to detail. Their ideas are truly original and they pride themselves on customizing flowers (rather than doing what has always been done). They may not be the least expensive of others out there, but they definitely provide excellent quality work and do not skimp or use any "filler" flowers.
My sister is also engaged and just booked them as well, so we are excited to see what they arrange for her.

I was so pleased with all my flowers for the wedding--everything was beautiful. Orchids N' Blooms stayed within my somewhat modest budget and cheerfully went along with some of my more offbeat ideas. They are a pleasure to work with.

Erica and Scott did an outstanding job, I was very picky with flowers and picking the florist was the hardest thing I had to do during my planning. Her ideas are very fresh and unique and I couldn't be happier with everything. Everybody was blown away and couldn't stop talking about how beautiful everything was. She always responded so quickly, from the beginning I knew I was in good hands, the value hands down was the best, and they were extremely flexible. I think we changed our mind so many times about small things and she would always listen and meet with us and I couldn't be happier with my choice. These guys are going to have fantastic reputation and it is very well deserved. Thank you Erica and Scott, you guys were amazing...

Orchids N Bloom passed our expectations for our wedding. The were very afforadable for what we recieved, and they listened to what we wanted and made it happen. I was more than pleased with the flowers for the wedding, and the quality was great (in fact three weekend later we still have some of the flowers in our living room!).
Thanks guys!

Erica and her team did an outstanding job! They were extremely flexible through the planning process and very attentive. The week of the wedding we learned that it would be difficult to find quality calla lillies so Erica offered alternative suggestions that turned out to be perfect!
The bouquets and centerpieces were absolutely gorgeous and our guests couldn't stop raving about them. Our bouquets especially mine as the bride, were stunning!!! My bridesmaids have been in countless other weddings and all thought that these were hands down the best they have ever seen (even better than their own weddings).
I truly appreciate the time and effort the team at Orchids N' Blooms put in on my wedding. They worked magic for me and I will forever be grateful.

Words can’t express how wonderful my experience was with Orchids N’ Bloom! I thought I had a tall order to fill because I wanted to have a full tropical themed décor wedding, but not the cheesy Hawaiian shirt beach look, but several notches above…as my husband and I call it, “Tropical Elegance.”
When we had our meeting with Orchids N’ Bloom, it was very clear that they understood what we were looking for and respected our options and style. They gave great suggestions and were very knowledgeable on a variety of exotic floral from all over the world.
We wanted bold flowers, they gave us bold flowers. We wanted elegance, they gave us elegance. We wanted tons of color to flow with our theme, they gave us that too. Pretty much what we were looking for in a floral and décor for a “Tropical Elegance” theme at both our ceremony setup and reception was done!
The designers Erica and Scott consistently checked in with us giving us updates on flower orders, shipments and worked well with our wedding timeline so that the delivery and set up with flawless. They also worked well with our day of wedding coordinator as well as our wedding venue.
We couldn’t have asked for a better company to trust in for our wedding.

I actually met with Orchids N' Blooms based on other brides reviews and the pictures of their flowers. I am SO glad that I listened! Erica was very responsive and we had the same name which had to be a good sign right? :) I met with Erica at their studio and she asked me all kinds of questions about my vision and I brought some photos to help her see what I liked. I also met with Scott to go over the final details before the wedding and he was great as well. They were able to give me the flowers I wanted within my budget! I absolutely adored all my flowers and they delivered and set up everything promptly. I highly recommend this vendor.
Thank you so much Erica and Scott! You guys are awesome!

Erica and Scott was a plessure to work with, Erica responded to all my emails and calls quickly and was able to meet my budget and still provide gourgous flowers... I wish I could post some pictures to show just how beautiful my flowers were, all of them from my bouquet, to all the centerpieces, and my Brides maids, everything was just perfect.! Booking a florist was by far the most stressful part of planning my wedding, but choosing Orchids and bloom was the best decision I made.!

Beautiful flowers....people are still commenting on how unique and lovely they were. More than one person said that the rose petals were like velvet. And a few asked me for the name of the florist.
Erica is very responsive and easy to work with. She was willing to change her ideas to come up with exactly what we wanted.
