My Wedding Blooms was an absolute dream come true. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Kerim, who tirelessly worked wonder after wonder for our wedding. The ceremony flowers were simply stunning and exactly what we had envisioned. We don't know how Kerim managed to find peonies for the bridal bouquet, even though they were long out of season.

Our guests were even more dazzled by the reception arrangements. Using the apple tree branches from our family farm, My Wedding Blooms created an apple orchard out of high-rising centrepiece stands. They alternated the apple tree centrepieces with the ceremony flowers, which they rearranged in beautiful urns.

We toyed with the idea of having 3D effect chocolate apple branches to decorate our cake, but were told by our baker that it would take ages to create. Kerim engineered branches for the cake overnight that looked identical to what we had in mind.

My Wedding Blooms also came to our rescue at the eleventh hour: they created two extra centrepieces to accommodate unexpected guests with ridiculously little notice. We still marvel at the lengths My Wedding Blooms went to innovate and create designs to personalize our wedding and to suit all that we fancied.

Betsy was everything I hoped for in my wedding make-up and hair stylist. Her make-up was skilfully subtle, beautiful in the photos and it lasted all evening. It is rare to find a stylist who listens as well as Betsy and she could not have been more accommodating, especially with helping me to find the right up-do. I was grateful most of all for her calming presence. My wedding day got off to the right start with Betsy!
