That said, I decided for Mothers Day, I am not going to make that mistake again. I called and spoke to Julie at Middletown Florist, to help me with a bouquet for my mom. Even though she didn't have exactly what I was looking for, she went the extra mile to let me know what they did have, and the kind of special bouquet she could put together. She really took the time to make sure I was happy and satisfied. To top it off, because I live in TX, she even sent me a picture of the bouquet before delivering it to ensure it was to my liking. She was so professional and kind and really went the extra mile and I will most definitely using them again. My MOM called me raving about her bouquet!!! She looooooved it! She saild this is seriously the most beautiful bouquet of flowers I have ever received. Thank you so much Julie and Ellen Kind Regards from TX

The other day when I was lunching at Everest Curry House (amazing Nepalese food!!), I decided this is the day I need to go check out Sustainable Exchange. This store is all the good feels. Many natural materials and fabrics, beautiful artisan style soaps sans heavy perfumes or dyes, scrubby brushes for your dishes, face, and body, and just a plethora of great things for your home, or as gifts. I bought two long handled brushes for body scrubbing, some incense, a mushroom cocoa packet, and a face scrubber. And, the gentleman working (maybe the owner?) was so friendly and personable. Will definitely be frequenting this shop!

I love that they carry Griffin Remedy products. An all-organic SF-founded company that makes beautiful bath products to fill all my glass jars? Awesome. Their formulations are simply the best. Sustainable Exchange also has an excellent selection of zero waste cleaning tools and an array of cute gifts and local artisanal items. Browsing is like a little adventure because there are so many things to see arranged all over the store. Do you need lip balm? Food? Kaftans? Coconut fibre sponges? Flouride-free toothpaste? Dish soap? Chocolate? Bar soap? Honey? Marin themed things? Essential oils? Honestly if you need something random, it's worth checking to see whether Sustainable Exchange carries the zero waste organic version of it!

Dragonfly Floral is out-of-this-world amazing. My husband and I are both huge flower lovers, and as…read moresuch florals were high up on our list of wedding priorities. From our earliest conversations with Dora, we knew we were in good hands. She immediately understood the vision we had in mind and executed it beyond our expectations, from the colors, to the specific types of flowers, to a certain vibe that just felt so us. She was also so helpful in providing some visuals for us to reference, and it made decision-making a breeze. Seeing it all come together on our wedding day (florals on our ceremony gazebo, table arrangements, bud vases sprinkled around, my INSANE bridal bouquet + his gorgeous coordinating boutonnière, etc.) was like a dream. We marveled at the beauty of it all as we walked around the venue, and the same can be said for our guests who gave many compliments. We had several people say something to the effect of "WHO did your florals?!" The setup of it all was also so quick and seamless; we were able to just focus on preparing for the wedding while everything was put in place, which is a luxury we dearly appreciated. Dragonfly Floral is truly so amazing to work with and we highly, highly recommend their services. They are so receptive, responsive, efficient, and just downright good at what they do. Our wedding would not have been the same without them, and we're so grateful that something so important to us and our relationship was executed with such precision, passion, and beauty.

Dragonfly is a local treasure!…read more It's a flower farm, full florist, and flower stand. A friend inspired me to stop in recently, to buy some stems from their self-serve flower stand. If there's not a staff member around, it's an honor system: leave cash or pay by Venmo. My (quince, I think) stems were mostly buds and now they've been blooming beautifully for the past 2+ weeks, adding cheer to our space. Excited to see what stems they have when I visit next!

We loved working with Nancy - she is absolutely incredible!…read more Nancy designed the flowers for our wedding in August 2014. Nancy was recommended to us by our wedding planner (Meren Dehaze of A Savvy Event) after we showed her our inspiration photos and her recommendation was spot on! We met Nancy in person for a consultation prior to booking and were thoroughly impressed. She asked us thoughtful questions regarding our preferences and was able to take our ideas and add her own creative twist. She also had lots of ideas to stretch our budget further and recommended ways for us to reuse our ceremony flowers for the reception. We really enjoyed her upbeat, outgoing personality and decided to book her services for our wedding. Nancy was also very flexible during the planning process - we changed our dinner configuration from 6 small tables to 2 long tables which required changes in the centerpieces and seating chart. When I told her this, she was able to adjust the centerpieces quickly and also gave me a wonderful idea for the seating chart (incorporating a wine barrel covered with flowers and succulents). My fiance wanted succulents and I wanted pink flowers for our wedding which could have been a challenging combination but Nancy pulled it off flawlessly! She took our inspiration photos and really outdid herself. The day of the wedding, I could not stop staring at our wedding ceremony arch - it was so beautiful! The bouquets also looked amazing. They were just what I had asked for, only better. She even included mint in the bouquets which smelled heavenly. Our guests could not stop talking about our centerpieces - many of them took the centerpieces home and have started succulent gardens from them. I would definitely recommend booking Nancy for your event!

I had done day-of-coordinating for a few weddings and Ash+Oak caught my eye at one of the weddings…read moreI worked. Since the wedding I kept thinking about their flower arrangements. When it was my turn to get married, I asked for a quote but couldn't get myself to spend thousands of dollars on flowers, so I ended up using another florist for my COVID wedding ceremony. Almost a year later we had our delayed wedding reception and after planning one wedding, I decided to spend money the second time around on things I loved - the top being flowers. I hired Ash + Oak this time and I was SO PLEASED. Not only did they provide beautiful flowers for us on our wedding day, but they were also extremely professional leaving me with little to worry about outside of telling them the color scheme I preferred. They worked with my day-of-coordinator for arrival time and when I arrived at my reception, all the flowers were in place. I had seen many photos, so I trusted their design and gave them little instruction. I asked them for a summery feel with a romantic color pallet with blush, mauve, accents of yellow/blue and they delivered! I couldn't stop staring at the wedding bouquet when we were taking photos!! I received so many complements (including from my grand-aunt who is extra picky about flowers). I am so thankful for their craft, design, and eye. Looking back at the photos of the flowers makes my heart so happy! Thank you Ash + Oak!

Where do we even begin? Ash + Oak brought our Dutch Masters vision to life in a way that truly took…read moreour breath away. From the moment we walked in on our wedding day, the florals were nothing short of stunning and dripping with the elegance we had always imagined. What set Ashley and Katie apart was their extraordinary attention to detail. Every arrangement was thoughtfully crafted, but what really blew us away was that they customized each table arrangement to match the theme of its individual table card. Guests loved it so much that they made it a mission to see what each and every table looked like. It's that level of care and artistry that elevates florals into something truly unforgettable. Ashley and Katie's quality, professionalism, and creative talent speak for themselves. They listened, they understood our vision, and then they exceeded it (and even came in clutch for a last second arrangement for the bridal shower)! Six months later, people still talk about how they have never seen flowers as beautiful as they saw at our wedding. If you are looking for a florist who approaches their craft like a true artist, we cannot recommend Ash + Oak highly enough.

I'd absolutely recommend them for parties, corporate team building events, florals to be sent to loved ones, you name it. Can't recommend them enough.
