Kato Floral Designs transformed the vision of my wedding decorations into a reality and exceeded our expectations in so many ways. I haven't been involved in many weddings before and I honestly had no idea what to expect or how to even describe what I wanted. But, from the first moment I spoke with Kato Floral Designs, she put us at ease and had great suggestions. My wife and I have pretty different styles (she's more of a minimalist, while I love elaborate displays) and we were worried that we would not find a style that worked for us. This was no problem for Kato! She understood what we were looking for and helped us refine a clear design for our ceremony and reception. She was extremely responsive and easy to work with throughout the entire process. Even requests that I thought might come off as rather difficult to fulfill, she handled like a pro. For example, I wanted customized succulents as favors for our guests and I was so pleased with how they turned out. I would highly recommend Kato Floral Designs and can't say enough about how great my experience was for such a big day. read more

Maria Kato was initially recommended to us by our wedding planner Emily at Sincerely Yours Events, and when Emily tells you that Maria is the best, by golly, believe it! Kato Floral Design is exceptional is every way you want your wedding florist to be. She listened to my thoughts and ideas, I sent her a few photos, and the result on my wedding day was what dreams are made of! Just breathtaking! I shared my floral vision with Maria, but we received SO much more. The candle accents, the variety of vases, the uniqueness of each arrangement, yet the cohesiveness of the whole floral theme, was just perfection. She and her team are highly talented, efficient and have a beautiful eye for design. As far as I'm concerned, there is only ONE florist to call in Savannah, and will BE only one florist in Savannah, from here on out! If you want the A-Team of wedding vendors, Kato Floral Design is going to be your go-to, hands down. Plus, I must add, Maria is just the most lovely of humans! read more

Oh my goodness is Maria amazing! Maria handled the bouquets and boutonnieres for my wedding, and I originally had traditional white flowers in mind. Then, about 2 1/2 weeks before the wedding, I saw something on pinterest and wanted to make some changes--Maria made everything come together PERFECTLY! The ribbons on the bridesmaid bouquets, the details to my bouquet, everything was just stunning! Her flower selections were fabulous, and she was able to provide a list of flowers she intended to use at least a week before the wedding itself so that I wouldn't be surprised by anything. The flowers were simply amazing. I had already decided to use the bridesmaid bouquets as centerpieces on some tables, and now I am so glad I did because the arrangements were so stunning I wanted to continue to show them off! And have no worries about the flowers being fresh--its now been 6 days since my wedding and my bouquet is still beautiful in a vase on my table. Thank you, Maria! read more

If I could give Kato Florals 10 stars I would. Maria and her team are an absolute dream team. From the beginning of the wedding planning process, the Kato team worked with me to perfect my vision for the florals. I had an idea of what I wanted, I provided them photos for inspiration, and they quoted accordingly. When the day of the wedding came and I finally saw everything come together, I was absolutely blown away. Maria and her team went above and beyond to make sure the venue was decorated perfectly with florals, candles, vases, etc. They even took time to move florals from the ceremony room to the reception to use twice without anyone even knowing there was a transition being made. I am so grateful. They made my wedding dreams come true. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the work you put in to create the most magical wedding for my husband and I. To top things off, all of our guests were equally as blown away! read more

I had an elopement package at a B & B in Savannah and needed additional flowers for my wedding luncheon. The B & B referred me to Kato's. Thank goodness!!!! Her flowers are amazing! Some of the best i have ever seen! In addition, we ordered an extra corsage and boutonniere for the ceremony -- Kato's sent two of each, since she didn't know what size we wanted! And for the luncheon, we wanted one long arrangement for the centerpiece. Kato went to the restaurant, viewed the table and decided that three smaller (medium sized) centerpieces would look better -- so she prepared those instead and didn't charge extra -- unbelievable. And she didn't use any of those cheap, filler flowers either. This florist is top notch, and i cannot recomment here enough! Quite honestly, she should have chargednat least double for the flowers and her time and effort. A+++++++!!!! read more

we frequently visit Savannah Ga. during the year. A couple years ago I asked a GM at one of the best of Savannah's restaurants on who was the best florist in Savannah. They said Kato Floral design. I wanted a special arrangement for my wife to be put in our hotel room for our 50th wedding anniversary and a small table arrangement to go where we were eating dinner in Savannah. I placed an order with Marie @ Kato and on our return trip to Savannah for our 50th anniversary, there we 2 of the most beautiful arrangements I have ever seen! Beautifully arranged with premium flowers and long lasting! Needless to say, since then I rely on Marie @ Kato's for flower arrangements for when we come to Savannah for our Anniversary's and Valentine's Day!! Excellent service and very Professional floral design/arrangements. I Highly Recommend Kato Floral Designs. read more

Maria was so amazing to work with!! She made my dreams come true. From our first meeting she knew exactly what I wanted and captured it perfectly. My flowers and all the others were stunning!! When I walked into the reception I was brought to tears because of how beautiful our candlelight / eucalyptus centerpieces were. She truly captured my vision perfectly. She also went above and beyond to make our sweetheart table beautiful. She helps you think of places / people that may need flowers that you wouldn't think of. My mom and I were also thrilled at the price of the flowers; they were not over priced at all. Maria will also answers any questions that you have and answer them quickly. I can not recommend Kato Floral enough!! If you want beautiful flowers you will not go wrong with Kato!! read more

Maria is a true gem of a florist! It was such a pleasure working with her. My bridal bouquet and bridesmaids, floral arrangement, and table decorations that she put together were absolutely amazing. I showed her pictures of the different types and colors of flowers that I wanted and she did exactly what I wanted. In fact, it was even better than I could have imagined. Her floral arrangement on the bottom of my sign at the square complimented my bridal bouquet. When I walked into Garibaldi's restaurant and saw the table arrangements, it was breathtaking. They made the room magical. I loved all of it. She helped me make my fair-tale wedding come true. Thank you so much. I highly recommend Maria as your wedding florist and I plan to use her for any other celebrations I have read more

My daughter's wedding ceremony in Emmitt Park in Savannah was so very lovely and elegant in no small part thanks to Kato Floral Designs! Maria gave my daughter exactly what she envisioned for her wedding and the reception. She was wonderful to work with. My daughter was always able to get in touch with her, and Maria was glad to discuss floral options to fit in with Maggie's vision. As MOB, I could not have been happier with Maria's design. The garland along the bannisters and bar and the amazing tabletop arrangements truly transformed the hall. Anyone who is considering a florist for an upcoming occasion needs to contact Kato! Thank you, Maria! read more

Maria was so sweet, and did an amazing job on our wedding flowers. It's easy to change your mind from the time you book a vendor to the time you finalize details, and she was so accommodating and helpful with adjustments. Aside from bouquets and boutonnieres, she created the most beautiful flower crown for my niece/flower girl. She also provided an abundance of extra flowers for the cake and my hair, and flower petals for the flower girl. The quality of the flowers was top-notch, and we received so many compliments. My bouquet was a show stopper, and I absolutely swoon when I see photos of it. I am so glad we found Kato Floral! read more

I recently used Kato Floral Designs for my wedding in Oldfield Plantation. Meagan & Maria were a dream to work with. I was blown away by how perfect my floral arrangements were at my wedding. They managed to capture my entire vision and made such gorgeous arrangements. They were so accommodating and so quick to respond to me throughout this whole process and made everything so incredibly easy. Everyone kept coming up to me at the wedding asking who did the floral arrangements because they were breathtaking. I strongly recommend using Kato Floral Designs and will absolutely be using them for all of my future events! read more

If you are looking for a WOW, Kato Floral Designs should be your first choice. A destination wedding is daunting with plans and vision being arranged via email and phone, however, Maria took our daughters vision and made it a reality. The floral arrangements were all spectacular: altar, ceremony aisles, maid-of-honor, junior bridesmaid, boutonnieres, corsages and table centerpieces. The bridal bouquet, with white orchids, jasmine vines and eucalyptus was so beautiful it actually brought tears to our eyes. We can't thank Maria enough for the exceptional work she did to make this wedding a success. read more

Maria exceeded my vision and made my wedding into a fairytale dream! The centerpieces were everything I wanted and more.The flowers were fresh and smelled INCREDIBLE. And all the other little details, such as candles and lanterns were absolutely perfect. Not only does Maria have impeccable talent, but she is also one of the best people I have ever met. She truly cares about her customers and will always go above and beyond for you. Maria, I just walked around my ballroom and took it all in--it was truly a dream come true. Thank you for everything, we love you! -Zach and Lauren Todd read more

Our wedding experience with Maria was perfect. She is so sweet and a true artist. She immediately understood the floral "look" my daughter wanted and executed it flawlessly. The bridal and bridesmaids bouquets were absolutely beautiful, as were the boutonnieres. The table centerpieces she created transformed the reception hall. Her prices are beyond reasonable--we got a lot of "bang for our buck" and she had thoughtful suggestions on areas where we could save money. We couldn't have been happier with the florals and we highly recommend Kato Floral Desig read more

A week before my wedding, our original florist texted to tell me that she couldn't get any of the flowers that I wanted. I was beyond stressed out! Maria absolutely saved the day! She took our wedding on a week's notice! Not only did she take the time to understand what I was looking for, she really put some thought into her creation and you could tell! Our flowers were absolutely perfect and were a true reflection of what we were looking for! I highly recommend hiring her to do your flowers! I have no doubt you will be just as happy as we were! read more

We recently used Maria at Kato Floral Designs for our father's funeral mass flower arrangements. Her floral designs are exceptional and were among my dad's favorites. And while my dad was very modest about many things, we knew he would want gorgeous "happy" flowers at his service. Maria was so kind and caring throughout the entire process and she listened carefully to our floral requests. Words do not do justice to the stunning arrangements she created. They brought us so much joy on a sad day. Thank you, Maria! read more

I live out of town and was looking online for a local floral shop in Savannah. I was pleased to have found Kato's Florals! The owner was so kind and worked with me on what I wanted to spend. Even though she was in the middle of preparing for a wedding, she was gracious enough to help me. When the birthday flowers were delivered to my friend, she said "they were the most beautiful flowers she's ever seen!" I was so blessed to have found this flower shop. The owner was absolutely lovely....and so were her flowers! read more

I can't say enough good things about Maria and my experience with Kato Floral Designs. Maria took my requests and made my wedding flowers exactly what I asked for but somehow better. On top of that Kato's flowers are so reasonably priced I was able to get a few extras I wasn't anticipating I'd be able to afford. On wedding day when we could not find one of the headpieces she had one delivered to the hotel in 30 minutes, I didn't even have time to panic! Her professionalism is above and beyond. Thank you, Maria! read more
