OH MY GOD!!! I can't thank Dan enough for the AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL flowers he brought to our wedding. It truly made our wedding feel so magical.

Let me just start by saying that Dan really knows what he's doing and he's incredibly reasonable.

We just got married on 4/18/09. My husband and I are both in our 30's and couldn't get a lot of financial help from our parents for our wedding. We had an okay budget but once you start to break things down, you realize it's not much for this or that, like all the little things that make it your own special day. I ended up making a lot of things on my own to save money. I just couldn't see myself doing that with the flowers.

I first went to Dan with my vision for our wedding. He knew exactly what I wanted and was able to show me ideas and arrangements that he has done in the past(he has a huge collection of pictures from all the events that he's done flowers for). He quoted me a price that I wasn't sure of. I went home and my husband and I talked about it. We couldn't justify the cost and I kept getting prices thrown at me about how much it would cost if I just did it myself.

One thing I know is that on the wedding day or even the day before, I couldn't see myself or anyone in my family, putting the flowers together. It just didn't make sense. I looked around and got a few other prices, but I really liked Dan and decided to go back to him. Important note: one of my non-wedding vendors referred me to Dan because she had used him a few times in the past and loved his work.

I sat down with Dan and explained our situation with the budget and he was so incredibly understanding. He worked with my budget and was still able to provide me with gorgeous flowers.

About Dan: he is just so incredibly genuine. He's a family guy and is so respectable. I actually had a few people tell me (after the wedding) that "your flower guy was soooo nice". I knew from the minute I met him that he cared about me being happy and having a beautiful wedding day. All the other florists I met with just made it feel like it's just another event, but he genuinely wanted to make it feel special for us. I told him what colors I wanted and he just knew what to do!

His website needs to be updated because it doesn't do him justice! He's a terrific person and an incredible florist. The man knows his flowers! I really can't say enough good things about him. I promise you that I didn't know him before our wedding but now I feel like I have a friend. I posted some pictures of our flowers in my account so you can see for yourself. BTW...his flowers were totally fresh and smelled amazing! The roses in my bouquet were so unbelievably fragrant!!! :)

Dan, if you read this...you're amazing! Thank you for making our wedding so beautiful. I had a lot of compliments about our flowers and that's because of you. Thank you...thank you...thank you!!!

Your friend,
