Blooms of Hope

Blooms of Hope is a great florist. I enjoyed working with Nicole immensely. She really listened to my ideas and took the pictures I provided to her to heart. All of the samples she provided were gorgeous and one of them was exactly what I had envisioned. She also provided flower pictures of her own to help me articulate exactly what I wanted. Blooms of Hope is reasonably priced and donates half of its profits to charity. I definitely reccommend this vendor.

We requested price quotes from a couple florists before ultimately deciding on Blooms of Hope and could not have made a better decision. Nicole was absolutely fabulous to work with, through every step of the planning process. From the initial planning meeting at her house to the final meeting with samples of our centerpieces, Nicole provided flawless service. She was always quick to respond to emails, incredibly flexible with last minute changes regarding table counts/corsages, and provided amazing arrangements for our wedding. We received many compliments about our flowers - especially from our parents, who took home remaining arrangements following the wedding. The arrangements lasted 2 - 3 weeks after the wedding.We highly recommend Blooms of Hope to anyone deciding on a florist. The value, the service, the personal touches surpassed our expectations!

Working with Blooms of Hope was the only negative experience that I had in my entire planning process. When you go for your consultation there are no actual flowers to look at so you have to look through books to choose flowers that you like. I feel that this company lacks creativity and misses the mark.

Nicole was wonderful and I loved my flowers for my wedding. She was never pushy and respected any budget concerns. I would definitely use her again and I would highly recommend her. She was always available to discuss any last minute changes and was very accomodating.

Blooms of hope designed and provided the flowers for my wedding on August 20, 2011. I couldn't have asked for anything more beautiful. Blooms of hope made my wedding vision come to life and I can't say enough about the personal experience I had with them. They were so professional and such a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Blooms of Hope to any bride that wants a stress free and wonderful experience.

I honestly can not say enough amazing things about Nicole and Blooms of Hope!!! Her creativity as well as her obvious love for flowers is contagious and you can not help but getting even more excited about your wedding flowers. Nicole did everything to help me realize my vision of wedding flowers, even when I changed the type of flowers. She was constantly looking for ideas based off of ideas I had provided her and the final products for everything were breathtaking! I could really go one for hours about how wonderful she was. Beyond that her prices are absolutely budget friendly and she worked with us every step of the way to make sure we could do what we wanted within our means.

I have only great things to say about Nicole, the owner of Blooms of Hope! She brought my very hazy wedding dreams to life. I am not someone who knows a lot about flowers. I went into my first meeting only knowing that I wanted my flowers to be purple and white. Nicole took that idea and ran with it. She pulled out her collection of pictures, archives, and books to help me figure out exactly what it was that I wanted. At our final meeting before the wedding, she had several mock ups for the bouquets and centerpieces for me to see and critique. It was clear that she really wanted to give me exactly what I had envisioned. My wedding was more beautiful because of Nicole. I got so many compliments on my flowers! My mother took most of our arrangements home after the wedding and we got to enjoy them again at brunch the next day.I found her prices to be extremely reasonable, especially when you consider her cause - she donates 50% of her profits to charity! That was the main reason we initially met with her. After talking to her and seeing her work, it was obvious we should book her for our wedding. My husband and I liked the way she priced out each individual component. She would show us what a $30 centerpiece looked like compared to a $60 centerpiece, for example. She really listened to me and also was easy to communicate with via email. I would send her pictures of things I liked throughout the planning process, and she would get right back to me. I would highly recommend Blooms of Hope! Nicole was one of my favorite vendors! I can’t wait to see her work at my sister-in-law’s wedding later this year (she booked her 2 days after our wedding!).

Nicole at Blooms of Hope put together wonderful arrangements for our wedding. I was a little indecisive about the ceremony decor and she was patient with me and created great arrangements. The personal flowers were pretty and she made an awesome recommendation of having fun wrist corsages for my bridesmaids instead of traditional bouquets. The cocktail hour decor and table arrangements were amazing. She gave us a classic, "fall" look that complimented our venue, without using the typical orange/red/yellow color scheme. We were very happy with her work and half the proceeds go to great causes, so give Blooms of Hope a look when planning for your big day!

Nicole is amazing! I love her designs and she is so flexible and helpful and patient! She runs the business out of her home and only works part-time, so you don't have to worry about her doing multiple other events on the same day, she is totally focused on you. I guess I will leave more information after the wedding!

I cannot say enough about wonderful things about working with Nicole at Blooms of Hope. I had an idea of what I was interested in for my wedding, but I pretty much stopped at "Peonies." Nicole came up with lots of different suggestions for incorporating ideas and flowers I hadn't even thought of. She is truly a creative talent, and will bring an elegant touch to your wedding day! I got so many compliments on all the flowers, and my mother actually cried when she saw them! Even better, Nicole donates a portion of her profits to charity. She was great to work with, and I would strongly recommend her to anyone!

Nicole was wonderful during the entire planning process. She was very responsive to all emails, professional and informative. Everything went so smoothly and then we saw the flowers. They were beautiful and exactly what we discussed. I highly recommend Blooms of Hope...Nicole is fantastic!

Nicole went beyond my expectations for the arrangements. After a frustrating search of other florists telling me that a bouquet was a minimum of $250, I contacted Nicole 3 weeks before my wedding, hoping ANYONE could whip up some flowers for my limited budget. She did not hesitate like a lot of other companies did when I told her my budget, instead, we discussed practically and honestly the things that could be created. Given time constraints, I met with her one time and exchanged emails, mainly showing her inspiration images of what I wanted. I was blown away the day of the wedding. Everywhere I turned, each arrangement was beautiful and unique in its own way. It made me feel so good to have such amazing flowers, and I had so many complements on my bouquet of pink peonies. I initially thought the best part of Blooms of Hope was that 50% of profits are donated to charity, but in the end, the skill, beauty and professionalism I got was what I really remember.

Nicole was absolutely wonderful to work with and her arrangements turned out beautifully. She was extremely willing to work with my ideas and contributed a lot of her own ideas and creativity as well. I found her very available to answer questions and she went out of her way to find the special planters and unique flowers I wanted for my centerpieces. I thought the prices were extremely reasonable and it feels good to know that some of what you spend is going for charitable purposes. I would HIGHLY recommend Nicole and Blooms of Hope for wedding flowers.

Blooms of hope did an amazing job for my wedding. Nicole was great to work with and really understood the look and feel I was going for. The floral designs were just beautiful.

Outstanding service and beautiful flowers. Nicole is amazing! I will definitely use her again. Her attention to detail and second to none.

Nicole was absolutely wonderful to work with and we had a great experience dealing with her. We set up an initial meeting through email and she requested plenty of information and pictures of what we liked and what we were thinking of in order to prepare. At that meeting not only did she have pictures and books, but she even went so far as to have sample arrangements for us to look at. None of the other florists we met with did this and we were quite impressed. Nicole listened to what we were looking for and took our ideas and made her own suggestions and came up with just what we wanted. She was also very helpful in offering alternate flower choices in order to achieve the same look with a lower cost which we certainly appreciated.The bouquets and arrangements were delivered on time and were absolutely gorgeous! I had ordered a head wreath for my flower girl, which was beautiful, but Nicole also brought a small bouquet for her in case she didn't want to wear the wreath or there were any problems with it. The wreath was perfect, but I thought it was really nice of her to include the little bouquet at no charge and the flower girl was thrilled to have her own bouquet! We had many compliments on how nice all of the flowers were. Not only were they beautiful, but I couldn't believe how long they lasted. We left for our honeymoon the next day and were gone for a week and the flowers were still (for the most part) looking nice when we returned. Two weeks after the wedding I still had many of the flowers in a couple of vases. Incredible!I would highly recommend Nicole and Blooms of Hope to anyone. She is a sweetheart to work with, has great ideas and suggestions, and provided gorgeous flowers and arrangements.

Nicole was wonderful. She was able to create exactly what I had imagined. My flowers were probably one of my favorite things about my wedding. Plus, she donates most of what she makes to charity. Who could ask for anything better?

I would absolutely recommend Blooms of Hope! Nicole was amazing to work with—I sent her some photos of what I liked, we talked budget and met twice to go over some ideas and look at some examples. After the conversations and email exchanges I was confident with her talent so it was easy to let her work. I was completely hands off the day-of, Nicole took care of everything — delivering the bouquets, decorating the church, and setting up the cocktail hour and reception room. Everything was so much more beautiful than I could have imagined. Customer Service A++ and 50% of ALL her proceeds go to charity, so you get something beautiful for your wedding day and you feel good about the donation.

Thanks so much for everything Nicole! We loved the bouquets and the altar pieces! It was such a pleasure working with you and I hope to see you again! :)

Nicole was so wonderful throughout this whole process. We had a vision of what we wanted for our wedding, and when that vision changed, Nicole responded without hesitation and delivered flowers that were beyond my expectation--they perfectly fit the day and added the finishing touch to our wedding. Since we were living in NYC, planning a wedding in Maine and using many vendors from the Boston area, it was important that we had vendors that were flexible and responsive to e-mail, which Nicole most certinally was. I feel like I told her the feel and look of what I wanted on my wedding day with few concrete ideas and she made it happen. Plus she is just a really wonderful, nice person!! I highly reccomend her to any bride and groom.

Nicole was amazing! She listened to all I wanted without trying to turn my ideas into something else (I had a few florists try to tell me what I wanted rather than listening to what I wanted, like telling me I wanted roses when I continued to say I did not want roses) Nicole was very organized held on to every picture of arangements I liked and was able to look at these pictures and come up with arrangements that included all of the elements I loved. She was very friendly and any time I sent her an email she got right back to me, even when she was on vacation =). The day of the flowers came out awesome!! They were beautiful and vibrant and all of my guests kept talking about them. My bouquet was in perfect condition even the next day! Over all Blooms of Hope was wonderful to work with and I couldnt of asked for a better florist!!!

It was a pleasure to work with Blooms of Hope. Nicole Pirani (owner) is extremely professional, is meticulous in her work, and she has a great sense of what looks good. She was very willing to suggest options within my budget, and the results were absolutely beautiful. On top of the amazing flowers at Blooms of Hope, the company is community-conscious, in that portions of profits from events are donated to local charities. I highly recommend Blooms of Hope to anyone looking for flowers for an event.

I was absolutely thrilled with my Blooms of Hope wedding experience! Nicole Pirani was a pleasure to work with and put so much effort into meeting any requests that I had. She was incredibly responsive and professional and the centerpieces and bouquets she created ended up being even more beautiful than I had envisioned. What really sold me was the fact that Blooms of Hope gives such a large portion of its income as a charitable donation to a worthy cause.

Nicole Pirani was one of the nicest, most honest, organized people we dealt with through the whole wedding process. She truly helps you to figure out what it is that you like and would want for the wedding. Thank you, Nicole!

Nicole was great. She listened to what I wanted and put together beautiful arraignments.

Blooms of Hope provided the perfect flowers for my wedding day and was flexible with the English garden/tea party theme I went with. I loved that 50% of the profits went to a deserving charity. I would highly recommend Blooms of Hope!

Working with Nicole was such a joy. She was so helpful and made it so easy and exciting for us when choosing our flowers. The flower arrangements were absolutely beautiful!! She went above and beyond with everything and I would highly recommend Blooms of Hope to any bride!! I also think it's incredible that Nicole donates part of the proceeds to charity. How amazing is that?!?! A+++++++ in every category!!

We loved working with Nicole, she was a pleasure to work with and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a florist (we actually already have). She was very flexible and had great ideas for both our ceremony and reception decor. Her floral arrangement were beautiful and she was so easy to work with. We found other florist who didn't think they could work with our budget or with our colors but Nicole was so wonderful and said we would make it work.....and we did. We also loved the idea that Nicole donates half of her proceeds to charity. She made our wedding day special and made us feel like her only customers.

Nicole was extremely flexible and responsive. Each arrangement was of highest quality and perfect scale.

Loved her. She was friendly, personable, flexible. Gave good ideas. The price was average, but the fact that she gives so much to charity is wonderful. She operates from her home and is very welcoming. I really can't complain about anything. She even added an extra boutonnierre last minute for me when we had an extra usher join the ceremony.

Nicole of Blooms of Hope is creative, professional and, most importantly, turns out a beautiful end result. My wedding flowers reflected my personality, something that was as important to me as it was to her. Blooms of Hope is a great choice if you're looking for classic florals with a little extra twist.

We can't thank you enough for all the time, energy, and thought you put into all the flowers used in our wedding celebration. From the boutonnieres to the nosegays to the centerpieces and altar arrangements-everything was absolutely gorgeous! The bridal party bouquets, in particular, were even more beautiful than imagined. The color combinations were just spectacular and a number of guests commented on this. We'll be sure to spread the word about your talent and your big heart.

We wanted to thank you so much for the beautiful flowers. I loved my bouquet and the table pieces and centerpieces were bigger and prettier than I imagined. They are still making our home smell wonderful!

You did such a wonderful job with the flowers. I couldn't get over how GORGEOUS they looked! You covered every little detail perfectly. I received many compliments from our guests. I will be sure to recommend you to anyone needing a florist! You do such beautiful work.

We were so happy with Blooms of Hope that we've been telling everyone we know that is getting married soon to check you out. Both your work and you as a person made our day that much more special. You are so talented at what you do, we were so lucky to have had Blooms of Hope as a part of our day.

I'm not sure where to start. Should I talk about what a wonderful person Blooms of Hope's owner Nicole Pirani is? That's a topic that could certainly fill this page. After knowing Nicole for only a few minutes, I felt like she was my long lost sister. Seriously, she couldn't have been any nicer or more welcoming. Knowing this, it's no surprise that she gives 50% of her profits to charity. But think about it, what an amazingly selfless thing to do.I would be remiss to not mention the talent Blooms of Hope brings to the table. Nicole and her team make beautifully creative arrangements that really get noticed. I particularly love the beads, ribbons, and other embellishments she uses to create her signature style. If you need a florist, give Blooms of Hope a look. You won't be disappointed.

Nicole from Blooms of Hope goes above and beyond each client's needs and requests. Every time I've had the chance to work with her shes on site for setup running around with the rest of us! It's much appreciated from a caterer's point of view. I know when I recommend her to my clients its going to reflect well on us as well.

Nicole is a passionate about her work and it truly shows - whether she is creating a boutonniere or crafting the centerpieces, her attention and care is every bit what brides deserve. I have been thrilled work with Nicole on several occasions and am pleased to recommend her to my clients.
