I knew I needed to work with Deena from our very first phone call, when we somehow ended up nerding out about different varieties of goldenrod. You can immediately tell that she isn't just a florist. She's a farmer with a deep love of plants. My husband and I have a backyard that's overflowing with flowers and vegetables, so we share that same joy when it comes to talking about plants. It felt like we were speaking the same language from the very beginning. For our floral vision, I wanted our ceremony to feel like our guests had stumbled into a whimsical wildflower paradise. I wanted it to feel abundant, natural, and full of interesting textures. Even though I didn't always have the florist vocabulary to describe exactly what I was thinking, Deena immediately understood the vision and created something even more beautiful than I could have imagined. I also asked her to create a floral lapel for my husband after stumbling across one on Pinterest. She told me she hadn't made one before, but instead of hesitating, she got genuinely excited about the challenge. The final piece was absolutely stunning. It was wild, textural, abundant, and unlike anything I'd ever seen. Working with Deena was such a joy because she brought that same excitement and enthusiasm to every interaction. You could tell how much she cared, and her work speaks for itself. One of our guests messaged me after the wedding, "11/10 flowers. No notes." Honestly, I couldn't say it any better myself. Thank you, Deena. It was such a pleasure working with you. read more

Deena is amazing. She is a great communicator and has a farm full of the most unique and beautiful flowers, great for any of your floral needs. We bought buckets of blue and white flowers with various green fillers. The drive to the farm was picturesque and part of memorable experience. Deena had everything waiting for us when we arrived. The flowers were so fresh. Not one of the centerpieces we created wilted in a four-day wedding trip. The centerpieces were the highlight of the wedding and we'll never forget the experience. I even recently purchased seeds for two of our favorite flower varieties. Hoping to grow them in the yard. Thank you, Deena, for your help and service! read more

We got the flower pictures back from the photographers! It was so wonderful how they meshed with the wildflower theme. We left it up to her discretion which flowers to provide to us. The choices were wonderful, and they added different varieties to the flowers that we grew! read more

We hired Sweet Roots for our July 2025 wedding, and working with Deena was one of our favorite parts of wedding planning. I was probably most excited for the flowers in the lead up to our wedding... and the flowers on the day were even more beautiful than we even imagined!!!! My vision was "wildflower princess" and Sweet Roots absolutely crushed and exceeded all expectations!! Deena was super flexible and helped us work within our set budget. We also got to visit the farm and align on which flowers we liked best, this was definitely a highlight of the whole summer for us. Our visit was so fun. Deena & her team are so warm, welcoming, highly responsive and collaborative, and incredible at what they do. If you're looking for a florist I can't recommend Sweet Roots enough. read more

We used Sweet Roots for our wedding - they provided us with 14 buckets of beautiful wild flowers. We provided guidance on colors, the types of flowers we liked/didn't want and greenery and what we got in return absolutely exceeded our expectations. Perfect for our summer mountain wedding! read more

Deena and her team are beyond incredible!! She came highly recommended to us and exceeded our expectations!! We took advantage of her offer to visit her on her farm and got to see and, with her help, choose the flowers that we wanted. She built on the initial vision that we had and created the most amazing florals. We and our guests were in awe of the beauty and artistry of every arrangement, from the breathtaking Chuppa, to the most unusual and beautiful boutonnieres anyone had ever seen. Each one of the centerpieces, whether the greenery or the florals, was perfect.  Even the arrangement in the bathroom was unparalleled.  Deena is truly an artist and so, so wonderful to work with. 10000/10!!! read more

Deena was absolutely fabulous to work with and her flowers were stunning. The customer services was phenomenal and Deena was able to take my pinterest and rambling words and turn it into my dream vision board. Every detail was executed to perfection from the first meeting at the flower farm (I definitely recommend going if you can - so worth it!!), day of set up and afterwards take-down. We got married in Truckee / Tahoe so location was perfect. If you are going for boho/chic, look no further (though I know she can do it all)! 10/10 recommend read more

We worked with Deena from Sweet Roots for our wedding flowers and they were stunning! We ordered bulk blooms to compile ourselves for the cocktail and reception tables, and she put together instructions for how many stems of each flower to put into each vase that was SO helpful! She designed our arch flowers, statement pieces, bouquets, boutonnieres, and a flower piece for my hair and they were STUNNING! Truly so beautiful, she did such an amazing job with everything. Everyone had so many compliments on how beautiful the flowers were. She is so kind and easy to work with, would highly recommend working with her! read more

Deena did the flowers for my wedding this past August and I can't recommend her highly enough. From the initial meeting to the multiple follow up meetings we did throughout the whole process, she was so kind and made the process feel so relaxed. Florals are a big part of a wedding that can come with a big price tag, so it's a relief to know who you're working with for that has your back. To be honest, I typically have never been one to notice florals or bouquets too much at weddings, (and although I may be biased) I was BLOWN away by each and every piece. My bouquet was Vogue magazine worthy and the deconstructed arch that she and her team put together perfectly incorporated each little detail we had discussed over the last few months. Right down to the little disco balls I was hoping for! If you're getting married in the region, I can't recommend Deena and Sweet Roots enough! read more

Deena/Sweet Roots Farm did the flowers for my wedding this past May. The flowers were exquisite and Deena was professional, responsive, organized, kind, and just very talented. She helped me from start to finish plan exactly what I wanted, asked great questions, offered tips on arrangements (I had my friend arrange bulk blooms), and delivered the flowers to our venue. She incorporated my favorite flowers of the season- peonies and daisies and so many other beautiful surprises! Deena was so enthusiastic and supportive the whole way through. Thanks for making my wedding-flower-dreams come true. Don't miss a chance to support this beautiful woman and business. read more

Forever grateful to Deena, Rob and the Sweet Roots team for bringing our floral vision to life for our big day! Everything came to life better than we could have ever imagined! Working with Deena was a dream - she listened, was so thoughtful in her suggestions, and I never felt pressured to increase my budget or add more than I felt comfortable with. I wore an intricate dress with colorful embroidered flowers, which I was worried would make our floral arrangements a challenge, but she exceeded our expectations and matched the vibe perfectly. It was also important to me that we worked with sustainable vendors for our wedding, and Rob was incredibly patient with answering all my questions during our farm tour. A dream team who was wonderful to work with AND stunning florals executions - what more could you ask for in a vendor?? read more

We worked with sweet roots farm and they were fantastic from start to finish. They brought my vision to life and the flowers were stunning. Everyone we met were wonderful to work with. I could not recommend more for your special day! read more

I worked with Deena and Robbie on a wedding at Olympic Valley Stables recently as a fellow wedding vendor (Planner here). Throughout the planning process, they were extremely communicative, personable and had a very easy planning process. The wedding day was seamless and the flowers spoke for themselves! Everything was stunning. If you're looking for a florist, I highly recommend Sweet Roots Farm! read more

Deena and team are the BEST!!!! Wow wow wow is all I can say. They made our wedding incredibly magical. We were so happy to work with someone so thoughtful and caring. Everything - all bouquets, arrangements and more - were gorgeous. It was such a joy to know that we had flowers that were grown locally. I had requested a French-style, colorful bouquet and Sweet Roots nailed it. Deena was so wonderful to work with, too. I would definitely recommend them to anyone! Thank you, Deena and team! read more

Deena is an absolute dream! The entire process from start to finish was beautiful. We had to change our entire wedding plans due to COVID about a month before the ceremony and she handled everything with poise and grace. Not only is Deena an amazing floral designer and farmer but she's also so creative. She met with me to discuss my vision, sent over a vision board and even recommended photographers to match my aesthetic. Our flowers were the most gorgeous and even cooler - they were grown and picked FOR US - not flown in from somewhere out of state. Highly recommend Deena to bring your vision to life. Thank you! read more

WOW- working with Deena and Sweet Roots Farm was an absolute dream. We got married at The West Shore Cafe on Lake Tahoe in August 2021 and Deena blew my mind with her flower arrangements. We still get compliments about the flowers from people who were there. My flower knowledge is very minimal, so I didn't have a very strong vision of what I wanted. Deena created the most beautiful arrangements that felt so fitting for our personalities and wedding style. We felt strongly about our flowers coming from an organic farm and they exceeded all of our expectations while still being affordable. I would recommend Sweet Roots Farm to anyone looking for a beautiful, natural look and wanting to work with someone who is knowledgable, easy going and caring. read more

I can't speak highly enough about Deena and Sweet Roots Farm. For my wedding she provided centerpieces, boutonnieres, small bouquets, loose flowers, and my flower crown. I only realized after the wedding that she's an organic farmer which made my esteem for her (and her prices!) rise even more. She's professional, super friendly, organized, a great communicator and incredibly talented at arrangements. Deena listened to my ideas and interpreted them perfectly. From my end it was tricky to explain everything I wanted because I couldn't find a picture that captured the look. So we reviewed lots of different photos where I pointed out the aspects I liked in each. She explained all the flowers available for the season and was such a great communicator that I really felt I was in safe hands. I totally was. She was very generous with her time and advice from the initial consultation to perfecting the flower crown on the wedding day (not that it needed improvement, it actually made me cry it was so beautiful, but it needed slight trimming here and there when we saw it with my hair). When she delivered the flowers I was so overwhelmed that my vision was there in front of me. Her arrangements and flower crown were works of art. So delicate and effortless but also powerful and stunning. I don't know how she did it. I HOPE I can work with her again. read more

Working with Deena was a joy! She always responded quickly and worked to help me create a vision for our flowers that I didn't even know I had. On top of that, she created floral arrangements for our wedding that perfectly captured what I would have imagined if I could have envisioned flowers that perfect! As if that wasn't enough, Deena bought our flowers up to Tahoe, delivered my bouquet to me, then went to my husband's location to pin on his boutonniere, before going to the site and setting up the rest of our flowers. Thank you so much for sharing your gift and kindness with us on our wedding day! Deena, I'm sorry I waited so long to post my review. I just wanted to have pictures to show why you are a 5 star florist. read more

Sweet Roots is absolutely stellar. They just did our daughter's wedding and the quality of the flowers and arrangements were incomparable. Flowers arrived fresh, I think picked that morning, and absolutely gorgeous. They really couldn't have been easier to work with. With 150 guests, table arrangements. Corsages and butonierres for a large wedding party plus the cake decorations, it was a big part of the day and they came through in spades. I recommend them whole-heartedly 100%! read more

As two very indecisive people (but who also love flowers), we were afraid that florals would be a challenging part of wedding planning, but Deena and Sweet Roots Farms made the entire process painless and such a joy. Starting from the farm walk through, picking out colors and flowers that we liked, discussing the overall vision, and fine-tuning what would fit within our budget, Deena made the process incredibly easy and engaging. She helped decipher our various disconnected likes and turned it all into a beautifully executed masterpiece that perfectly fit into our Tahoe wedding drew on the themes of the natural wild flowers and mountain backdrop of our venue. Going off our initial inputs, we put the vision entirely in Deena's hands and when we arrived to our venue and saw the final result, it took our breath away. We could not be more happy or emphatic in our recommendation for others to work with Sweet Roots Farm. read more

Working with Sweet Roots Farm was a highlight of wedding planning! Deena is so talented at growing and putting together flowers. She was also so wonderful to work with! She was very responsive and great at asking good questions about what we wanted. Lastly, Sweet Root's prices were very affordable. Sweet roots provided bouquets, boutonnieres, flower crowns, a flower hair piece, and bulk flowers for our wedding. Every single item they provided was gorgeous! They looked fresh, vibrant, and unique. I would recommend Sweet Roots to anyone looking for flowers for any event! read more

I cannot recommend Deena highly enough if you are looking for flowers for your wedding. She was so lovely to work with and everything she brought for the wedding was absolutely stunning. It was also such a treat that Deena grows all the flowers on her farm and we loved getting to visit the farm and see its magic for ourselves. Deena is so knowledgeable about her craft and was so accommodating to all the ideas we discussed in terms of decor. The bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages were all incredible, as were all the table arrangements and bud vases, and I was completely floored by what she did to decorate our chuppah. If you have the opportunity to work with Deena, don't miss out! read more

I stopped by Sweet Roots earlier in the spring to pick up some plants for my new home in Grass Valley. I was happy to find a place to source organic starts that were appropriate for the local climate, having been bred in the Sierra foothills environment. The farm itself was gorgeous in its diversity and abundance of crops, and quite friendly to bees and birds from what I could tell. Glad I decided to visit this beautiful and inspiring example of organic, multi-species agriculture! read more

Sweet roots farms provides wonderful produce. The flowers they grow are amazing. Deana and Robbie work really hard and well organized.

Sweet Roots Farm turned our Nevada City wedding from pretty to absolutely stunning! I ordered bulk bins as well as a few staple pre-made items (bridal bouquet, flower girl crown, etc.) and could not have been more pleased. Deena provided a beautiful array of flowers, colors and textures that, as I said already, looked stunning. Compared to some of our other friends who have been married recently, the cost of our flowers from Sweet Roots Farm was about 25-50% of their price, with absolutely no decrease in quality. If you're looking to wow those attending your special event, or just love flowers, Sweet Roots is the way to go!! read more

I am SO GLAD I decided to get my wedding flowers from Sweet Roots Farm! They were just as I hoped they would be. Absolutely beautiful, vibrant, and fresh. We got so many compliments. In addition, Deena was very friendly, communicative, and helpful! I would highly recommend Sweet Roots Farm! read more

I cannot say enough positive things about Sweet Roots Farm! First off, Sweet Roots is so much more affordable than all other wedding florists. I ended up paying around $2,000 in total including delivery the day of our wedding. And the quality of what you get is, in my opinion, even better than an actual florist! Deena was so helpful and communicative throughout the planning stages. She took a good amount of time to talk through everything with me on the phone and via email. I felt so confident that she understood my vision and would create it for me. A few weeks before my wedding I visited Deena on the farm which was so much fun! She took a few hours to walk me through the fields and then she created a sample bouquet, boutonniere, and table arrangement so I could get an idea how everything would look. Since it is a wild flower farm you can't choose the exact type and color of flowers, so I thought this was so incredibly helpful to be able to see how Deena found the flowers similar in color, size and shape to the photos I had shared with her and watch how she goes about building the arrangements. She is so talented! The finished product was even more amazing than I could have ever imagined!! My mom, bridesmaids and I were speechless when she brought the bouquets up to my room. They were exactly as I had hoped for and pictured! She got the colors and the loose and airy look PERFECTLY. I got more compliments than I could count throughout the day on how beautiful my flowers were. Deena is also just so sweet, accomodating and easy to work with. I so highly recommend Sweet Roots for your wedding day! Deena will make you the happiest bride ever. read more

I would recommend Sweet Roots Farm to anyone who is looking to have local and farm fresh flowers for their wedding. It was so fun being able to visit the farm and pick out colors and flowers before the wedding. Deena created all of our table arrangements, bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, and my beautiful flower crown. They were absolutely gorgeous and perfectly captured the look I was going for. She even incorporated hops into the boutonnieres for my beer loving hubby! The flowers were gorgeous and the price was phenomenal! I loved it! read more

For our Truckee/Donner Summit wedding in August, we were on the hunt for a local, budget-friendly, down-to-earth florist. Sweet Roots Farm was recommended to us by a local Tahoe wedding planning company and we feel SO lucky to have had them design the flowers for our wedding! Since they aren't on WeddingWire or The Knot yet, Sweet Roots is kind of a hidden local treasure (becoming less hidden-- catch them while you can!). We found out later that they provide flowers for a bunch of local businesses and are well-known in the Grass Valley area. What's so great about Deena and her husband is that, aside from them being the sweetest, easiest-to-work-with people who grow organically, they are extremely knowledgeable about the flowers they grow. They know what varieties will bloom when, which flowers will hold up best in certain weather/lighting conditions, and know how to clip the flowers just right so they retain moisture in a bouquet. We signed our contract with Deena about 9 months prior to our wedding and it was so cool that they planted the seeds for our specific color palette and were involved in the growing, harvesting, and arranging of our flowers-- talk about full service! We are based in Los Angeles and were doing a lot of the wedding planning remotely. Deena was a dream to work with long-distance. She completely "got" our rustic/elegant wedding theme, our desire for wild, natural looking arrangements, and our subdued color scheme. She's a great communicator and uses online tools that make the process simple. The icing on the cake was that we asked for an unusual floral "altar" piece, that would take the place of a usual arbor. We wanted two log floral stands at the front of the aisle. Without batting an eye, Deena said they could make these for us using a cedar tree that had just fallen on their property. The end result was that we had a beautiful custom "arbor" that was one of the prettiest I've seen. The value for what you get is off the charts. They are special people, very talented and a joy to work with! Hire these folks knowing you are doing something good for the local community, the environment, and yourself! read more

Deena did an amazing job for my wedding flowers!!! She did a wonderful job on our arch flowers, bouquets and boutonnieres! I'm a little surprised there aren't more reviews for Sweet Roots on yelp. If you are having a wedding in Truckee or Tahoe...or really anywhere, you should definitely use Sweet Roots Farm. I love how they grew everything!!! I couldn't have been more pleased. Deena is very response and nice! Thank you Deena!!!! read more

This is a special place. We picked up a bunch of buckets of flowers for our wedding here, and we were blown away by the quality. Each stem was hand-picked the morning of the wedding, and the colors were superb. My family visited the farm to pick up the flowers and couldn't stop talking about how sweet the owners were or how beautiful the farm was. read more
