I used Visual Lyrics for my wedding in 2008 and I'm surprised to be the first reviewer here. They…read morewere one of my best vendors. Work quality and service are both outstanding. Quality: These folks are true artists who can create atmosphere and mood with their floral medium. Their style is unique, and whether you want something simple and minimalist or lush and grandiose, they can deliver it with a natural, organic look. The pictures on their website don't do them justice. In my case, they created an elegant, naturalistic look in a monochromatic color scheme (in reds/burgundies) for all of my floral pieces (bouquets, corsages, reception centerpieces, ceremony decor, etc). I won't describe the details of all the amazing things they created for me, but I will say that their designs looked like nothing I'd seen from other regional florists, and the look perfectly complimented my outdoor setting, through a combination of flowers, vines, branches, berries, ribbons, and candlelight. Rather than having a preconceived notion of exactly what you want, give them some creative license to design something for you and you won't be disappointed. You will also get value from them. I shopped around, and found this vendor offered me much more beautiful options within my budget than many others. Service: This is a family business, reflected in the level of personal access and service you'll receive. Chances are the person you talk to on the phone is the same person who creates and delivers your pieces. Everything was done on time, set-up at my venue was perfect, and prices paid were the prices quoted. Added bonus: I forgot to order a bouquet for my bridal portraits until two days before. It was too late for them to get my exact materials, but they were able to put one together very close to my color scheme, and it was lovely (in the photos, I like it just as much as the one I had on my wedding day). I keep hoping for another occasion to hire them again. But until then, I just recommend them to anyone who needs a special occasion florist.

They were also able to use a few of my own vases that I had sourced.

I told her all of my ideas, and she brought them to life, and my florals in the venue looked so much better because of her skills!

I never stressed once about how my florals were going to turn out during the planning process because I could tell I was in the best hands!

We paid over $4k for such a horrible experience, she…read moredelivered a fraction of the flowers she promised stated on our signed contract, overcharged us for bouquets and arrangements that were not at all what we were expecting, even after multiple conversations and guidance via pinterest, and worst of all, she had a disgusting attitude towards us the morning of our wedding. A few months into our contract she tried charging us a 'consultation' fee which was never spoken of in our original contract.... then 3 months before our wedding she emailed us basically saying that market prices were rapidly changing so she was INCREASING the price of our signed contract, all because we were editing some flowers. When I went in to do a stem count on what she had sent us, I kid you not it was 75 stems for $4k... Things were not adding up and we were very concerned. While we should've followed our gut and seen the MULTIPLE red flags, we chose to see the good and follow through with the contract... which was the worst decision. The day of the wedding we showed up to a shocking amount of flowers. She failed to pay close attention to close detail, we had asked for 36" tall floor installments, she made them maybe 17" tall with a few flowers just flanking out which we had paid ALOT of money for. The most frustrating thing about this is that we had sent her multiple images of the EXACT thing we wanted, NOTHING symbolized our pinterest board. The bridesmaids bouquets were not at all what we had talked about, the bride bouquet she admitted she had to change last minute because it was too heavy for her original plan (which she didn't let us know prior so it was a surprise that morning). We spare all future brides the headache and stress, research your vendors throroughly before signing any contract.

My sweet Tiffany from Ida Mayes Floristry, I don't even know how to formulate this review. For…read morebackground knowledge, I own a wedding planning company out of Chicago so as I planned my last minute elopement near Austin, I had to find an entire "new" vendor team that I was not used to working with. I did a lot of research, scanning Instagram, websites, reviews and everything in between because I had a very specific vision and I knew what type of people I liked to work with. When I came across Ida Mayes Floristry, I got really excited. But not only did their portfolio match the aesthetic I was going for, Tiffany responded with the kindest initial email and I immediately fell in love with her when we hopped on a zoom call. She has a very kind and calm disposition yet was so smiley and cheerful. She showed so much enthusiasm and passion towards my vision which made me SO excited to see her proposal. As you could imagine, she put a lot of time into crafting a proposal that gave me even more fun ideas and inspiration for our elopement. Also, Tiffany is a very patient. I will be honest when I say I had just about 1000 scattered ideas that I couldn't put into words but she took the time to figure out what I liked and disliked. We started with a more pastel "spring" palette and it slowly (well quickly!) evolved and started incorporating more pops of color and it became a bit brighter. There were never complaints on her end, she just purely ran with my ideas and absolutely killed it. As I got ready the morning of my elopement, I saw Tiffany and her team preparing the ceremony site outside by the pool deck and I could have cried seeing it come to life. Every single one of our 17 guests commented how stunning the florals were. It was the reason our elopement was so magical, I truly cannot be more thankful of what Tiffany did for us. As a wedding planner and bride, I will vouch for Tiffany and would be happy to talk to anyone about my experience with her. We have already talked about how I can somehow get her to expand to Chicago because she would do wonders there - and I'd love to work with her again! Hopefully more weddings in Texas in the future. I could go on and on but the summary is, Tiffany and the Ida Mayes Team is one of a kind. Besides the gorgeous work they design, they were a delight to work with. They are WORTH EVERY PENNY! Thank you again for making my elopement dreams a reality!!! Danielle (and Phil!)

She was so flexible and the entire team was great. Her florals are truly a work of art and would recommend to any Austin bride!

The bottom line is that Barbara is a GAMER! She executed flawlessly on an absolutely wild wedding…read moreday where every external curveball that could happen, happened. Let me set the stage for our wedding day a bit... The pouring rain forced us to switch the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing locations last minute. Oh and did I mention my wife was suffering from debilitating food poisoning from the night before! She was supposed to show up at the venue at 10:30am with the bridesmaids, but instead made it crawling in at 4:30pm. Additionally, Barbara had to deal with TWELVE hard-drinking groomsmen beforehand, since I had six Marine Corps buddies show up early to practice the sword arch. Although inside the bridal cottage it was a chaotic blur of Pedialyte sips and constant tears, Barbara was outside, calmly bringing order to the chaos, expertly directing the vendors and her crew to adjust timelines, setup locations, and overall strategy to adapt to mother nature and my wife's severe illness. Barbara stayed calm and collected throughout, and through a small miracle (read Barbara's experience and judgment), we began the wedding on time in a beautiful secondary location at the venue. I am sure that any wedding planner in Central Texas would be just fine on a sunny day with no contingencies, but we all know that is not how reality works. If you want someone who will facilitate the BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE no matter how crazy the circumstances, we can assure you that Barbara is the obvious choice. I could go on and on about the wedding planning assistance and guidance she provided for us, but I will let you read the other five star reviews to learn about that. I will end this review where I started; Barbara comes to play on Gameday! She will accept nothing less than excellence from every vendor, caterer, and her own employees, which provides an amazing guest experience. We were told by just about every guest it was the best wedding they had ever been to, and we could not have done it without Barbara!

Her communication is unmatched, and we always felt she was understanding exactly what our vision was. From making sure we were on track every step of the way, to providing her experience anytime something came up we had a question about, to calming us down whenever we got stressed, Barbara made the months leading up to our wedding relaxing, and enjoyable as we planned the happiest day of our lives. She has unbelievable venders she works with, and every vender we got through her was the absolute right choice. Her attention to detail and way in which she kept the party flowing the day of was incredible, and the day of our wedding my wife and I didn't feel stressed once, a feat which I credit all to how awesome Barbara was! The design of the wedding was absolutely beautiful, and worked perfect with the space! Whenever there was anything we wanted, or felt like it couldn't happen, she made sure we made the best choice, and because of her hard work our wedding was a once in a lifetime event! We recommend her to anyone, because we know first hand how amazing any work she touches is!!
