    Gorgeous florals and friendly staff! Sara is personable and professional, and the flowers look amazing!

    Our sweetheart table with flowers repurposed from the ceremony site

    We had a great experience with Sweet Stems and Sara as the florist for our wedding! We booked our wedding through Wedgewood and Sweet Stems was our assigned florist. Flowers were probably the major aspect of wedding planning that my husband and I felt most uncertain about (we didn't know what we wanted, what we should expect in terms of cost, had no real flower preferences, etc.). On our first call with Sara, she clearly explained what was included in our Wedgewood package and what options we had for add-ons. She answered all our questions and made suggestions for flowers we could use to achieve the color scheme I had in mind. After we had to change our venue due to construction delays, we got on a call with Sara and talked through what changes we needed to make for the new space and again, Sara made things very easy for us. We had a couple small changes along the way (e.g., we changed our minds about corsages and where we wanted "memory" flowers placed), which we were able to easily handle via email with Sara; she always provided us with an updated contract so we could make sure everything was as we wanted and we knew the pricing. On the day of, Sara and her team set everything up beautifully. They went above and beyond by draping chiffon at our ceremony site and moving our ceremony flowers to our sweetheart table after the ceremony was over. We would highly recommend Sweet Stems and Sara to anyone who needs a florist! She has a great eye for floral design and made everything so easy for us! Photo Credit: Easton Photography

    Sara is AMAZING!! As someone who works in the wedding industry, I wanted to be sure I had the BEST of the BEST -- and that is Sara with Sweet Stems!! My florals were absolutely breath-taking and took my wedding vision to that sought-after Pinterest level of design! My consultation was very smooth and easy. Florals are my most favorite part of wedding design, and Sara sat down with me to create my DREAM wedding vision, then helped me select the types of blooms, colors, and design ideas that would fit into my budget. I love how Sara will work with you to find creative solutions to give you the most bang for your budget, like creating design ideas that can be moved from your ceremony to your reception or communicating what blooms are most budget-friendly for the season of your wedding. Sara is also super down for doing new, creative ideas or trends---she actually designed a flower crown for my horse!! Sara's florals were amazingly fresh and smelled AMAZING. They were so fresh that they ended up lasting 5 days past my wedding! I also loved how I was able to keep the flowers and vases so many of my family member and guests were able to taker her florals home to enjoy after the wedding. BOOK Sweet Stems, it will be the best decision you make!! Thank you Sara!!

    Our gorgeous bouquets!

    Thank you so much for making our special day even more amazing with the gorgeous floral arrangements. It's exactly what we envisioned and better. The colors looked so beautiful and really brought all of our decor together. Looked beautiful with the bridesmaid gowns as well. Also thank you for being so supportive and helpful during the need for us to reschedule our wedding. Thank you so much for everything!

    We had Sweet Stems for our assigned florist booking through Wedgewood Weddings. Working with Sara was very easy and accessible during the initial planning. She has her appointment calendar set up so you can select what time works to meet even a few weeks out. I recommend creating a Pinterest board for the first initial meeting with Sara so that she can easily set up which flowers and colors you are looking for your vision. After the first meeting we had all our flowers, colors, orders and price set. Before the wedding Sara didn't mind meeting with me a few other times to go over extra designs and orders. At the end I felt very confident that Sara was going to take care of us for all of the floral needs. When the day came we were blown away with how beautiful everything turned out. We were extremely impressed with our ceremony arch and sweetheart table which was a big highlight in our wedding decor. All our flowers for the wedding party stayed intact the entire night and had the color pop we were looking for. The bouquet also held together overnight before taking it to the flower preservationist the next day. We are so grateful that we had Sara and her team as our florist and would highly recommend her for Temecula weddings!

    Sara from Sweet Stems is very thorough during your initial meeting and works to put together a vision board of flowers based on your budget. Her arrangements were beautiful, and her team set up everything quickly and efficiently. The bouquets, especially my bridal bouquet, were spectacular. I ordered one less boutonniere than I needed, and Sweet Stems quickly made one for our groomsman. I am rating 3 stars based on two disappointing parts of my experience. While none of these things were a day-of show stoppers, based on the time and effort it takes to plan a wedding, they were certainly a letdown. 1. As you can see on the style board, there was a specific theme we were going for. The colors were oranges and peaches. When I went to go see my cake on the wedding day, there were two giant ugly red flowers on the cake. There were also red flowers in my table arrangements. Nowhere in the proposal did we ever agree upon red, and it totally ruined the look and cohesiveness. While I understand there can be substitutions based on flower availability, Sweet Stems should have picked something within the color palette and not decide to pick a totally new color. 2. Communication. Communication with Sara after the initial meeting is difficult. She can take over a week to get back to you regarding questions and concerns. Her email system also makes it impossible to read her messages. Her email signature is so much bigger than the rest of the body of the email. Emails that come from her system are difficult to read because of the formatting and the length/size of her signature. It was hard to keep track of everything. Overall, I felt okay with my decision to hire Sweet Stems but the two items outlined above would definitely prevent me from recommending them to someone else.

    We hired Sara as our florist for our wedding. She was easy to work with and very responsive to emails and texts. Everything turned out beautiful, except there were roses in all the arrangements (except for the bride's bouquet) and my wife specifically said no roses through a few of our meetings (hence the 4/5 stars). I would still recommend Sara because everything turned out great, even with the snafu.
