I placed an order through Teleflora on 4/20th for 4/21st. It was my wedding anniversary, and I was…read moreordering the arrangement for my husband. I wanted to surprise him and do something for him that he has definitely done for me and have a beautiful bouquet of flowers delivered to him. Needless to say, he was SUPER surprised and excited when the delivery driver pulled up and handed him the flowers! That part was priceless. However, once I saw the actual arrangement I was very disappointed! The arrangement was NOTHING like the picture on Teleflora and it definitely was not a premium arrangement. I called Teleflora immediately. However, when I saw the name of the floral store that supplied the arrangement I wanted to follow-up with a review. This was supposed to be special, and it was the total opposite. What I ordered and paid for versus what I got were 2 different things! I actually ended up taking them out of the vase they came with and adding the flowers to the bouquet of flowers my husband gave me. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED

This experience was disappointing. I ordered a sympathy…read morearrangement for a friend who had just lost her uncle. Unfortunately, what was delivered looked nothing like a professionally designed arrangement. I understand that the arrangement wouldn't look exactly like the picture on their website The problem was the overall quality. The arrangement looked unbalanced, unfinished, and lacked the care you would expect, especially for a sympathy piece. What was even more frustrating was how this was handled afterward. Instead of offering a solution, I was repeatedly asked to provide more pictures. Under normal circumstances, that might be reasonable -- but asking me to go back to someone who is actively grieving just to gather more photos feels completely insensitive and inappropriate. To make matters worse, the only resolution offered was a $10 refund, which is barely the delivery fee. At no point was there a genuine effort to make things right, there was no replacement offered or a meaningful resolution. I would have much rather worked with a florist who values both quality and customer experience, especially during moments like this. Unfortunately, I can't recommend based on this experience.

Jenna was the only florist I interviewed due to her professionalism and helpfulness during our first meeting. My wedding went from a formal dinner to a small 65 person wedding. Jenna didn't skip a beat throughout the entire process. She not only helped with my flower design, but also may chairs/linens/chargers. We clicked immediately and I can't thank her enough for transforming my day into something magical with her talent. Anyone who says flowers don't matter at a wedding haven't hired Avant Gardenia! Thank you so much!

I'm so glad my planner introduced me to Avant Gardenia. From the moment I met Jenna, I felt like…read moreshe was someone who understood my vision, likes and dislikes and could transform them from concepts into reality, someone who could create a tasteful rendition within our budget. Our decor sample was great. Both Jenna and my planner worked with our schedules since I was in my final year of medical school and my now husband was in business school. Jenna got up at the crack of dawn (probably earlier, honestly) to get to our location early and sort and prepare everything for us. I literally had no changes to make to any of her work, and I could trust her for her thoughts on our tablecloths that went with the rest of her work. I was a little worried it might seem like I didn't care, since I literally had nothing to change with her flowers, but honestly it was just that beautiful a representation of our ideas for the day. My bouquet was absolutely stunning, by all accounts. I'm not one of those people who dreamt of their wedding day growing up. But one thing I did know growing up is that I love orchids. I have family in Hawaii and would visit them regularly each year, and every year I just fell more and more in love with the orchids around us. Dendrobium, Phalaenopsis, Cymbidium, didn't matter, I love it all. And when I first met Jenna I told her that. Her orchid bouquet for me was the most perfect one possible for me: simple, delicate and classic, yet luxurious and lush all at the same time. The flower wands and bouquets for the bridesmaids were also flawless interpretations of my vision. Our site didn't allow flower petals to be thrown. Given the ages of our four flower girls (3-5), we decided wands would be the best thing for them to hold. They were darling. The bridesmaids bouquets were truly gorgeous, and with barely any discussion or input necessary from me going into that final decision. I just trusted her to create something magical that I would love, and she did, all on her own. Last but not least, I wanted the flowers after the big day to go somewhere to be appreciated by people and mentioned it to my planner, who reassured me that Jenna always takes care of that. What seamless work. I think being able to trust your team and their taste and ability to execute is how you get their best work. If they're excited about what they do, it shows. Jenna is someone who clearly loves her work, was very thrilled about our wedding, and it showed in every beautiful bloom and blossom her magical fingers touched. Thank you again for your expertise, your class and your thoroughness in creating our decor!!
