Reviews of Cottage Flowers (Florist)

I had an amazing experience working with Laurie for the flowers for my small wedding. My bouquet and our boutonnieres and corsages turned out absolutely beautifully. She was wonderful to work with beforehand as well. When I had questions or wanted to add more items, she was very receptive. She also went above and beyond with delivering to us, which was outside of the normal delivery area. That made the entire day so much less stressful!

Laurie at Cottage Flowers was recommended to us by the events coordinator at our wedding venue, and BOY were we lucky to meet her! From the beginning, Laurie’s positive, cheerful, can-do attitude was evident. In our initial conversations, we discussed our vision and budget, and she helped strategize designs and flower choices that would allow us to have the wedding of our dreams. With just a few inspiration photos and a few descriptors of our vibe (classic, natural, minimalistic), Laurie got to work bringing our vision to life. Some of our favorite visual details from the wedding were suggestions of Laurie’s that we never could have imagined without her! For example, upon hearing that we were hosting our reception in a sailcloth tent, Laurie suggested that we use small birch trees to adorn the interior poles. When we saw the finished product, complete with strings of white lights, we were WOWED by the magic! Laurie also suggested that we display our placecards in a wooden box on birch logs surrounded by moss and succulents, a look that she described as “very Maine.” It was truly STUNNING! Several of our guests commented on how unique and gorgeous both of those details were – all thanks to Laurie! Laurie also saved the day by creating beautiful wedding favors on short notice. I was having difficulty finding favors that were within budget but of high quality, so I asked Laurie about the possibility of having mini succulents at each place setting (to double as décor and favors). With that guidance, she created 200 masterpieces: mini rosette succulents in gold mercury votives. This small addition to each place setting tied everything together and just popped! My husband and I continue to admire the little succulent that we brought home, as do many of our guests. :) While Laurie’s website is beautiful, it does not do her talent justice. She has an amazing eye for beauty, and we were beyond overjoyed with the masterpiece that she created on our wedding day. We cannot recommend her strongly enough!!!
