Christine's Floral Touch

I knew I wanted to work with Christine from the moment I met her! A friend who used Christine for her wedding last summer recommended her and I'm so glad she did! Christine was friendly, outgoing and really listened to me and tried to help plan out what I was looking for. She had a ton of great ideas and made me feel comfortable and confident about working with her. And...our flowers were absolutely gorgeous! I wasn't quite sure how to approach flowers for a winter wedding, but Christine created beautiful, romantic bouquets with Sahara roses and ivory accents. They were just perfect! I would absolutely recommend Christine's services.

Christine was did a great job of listening to what I wanted for flowers and centerpeices and helping that vision come to life.

Working with Christine was an absolute pleasure. She is creative, patient, and accommodating. Christine's eye for detail was apparent in the beautiful bouquets and centerpieces she created for our wedding. They were elegant, romantic, and tasteful. Christine was a great listener, easy to talk to, and incredibly respectful of our budget.

Christine did a great job. There were a few things details that were left undone but overall we are very happy.

My bridal bouquet roses were already browning and I one fell out within the first hour of receiving it and I hadn't even been outside yet. I specifically asked for fuschia/hot pink dahlias and orange roses, and specifically said NO lighter pinks and absolutely NO peach. My bridal bouquet was entirely lighter pink dahlias and peach roses. I didn't even want to carry it out to our first look photos because it was exactly what I DIDN'T want. Just before the ceremony, Christine had an attiitude with my photographer and said that she had kept us outside too long and that's why the flowers looked like crap. Not true, they looked like that upon delivery. Also, I was told I'd get a free toss bouquet, which was never delivered and never seen by anyone in our bridal party. When I made Christine aware of my concerns after the wedding, she did refund my bridal bouquet, but I really didn't feel that was enough. When I told her the colors were wrong, she told me she decided NOT to call me the day before our wedding to discuss; she said she thought of swapping them for hot pink gerbera daisies but just used the dahlias she had. I told her several times throughout planning that I hated gerberas, clearly something she never took note of, among other things. Overall, value is nothing if after the fact you wish you would've gone with a more expensive service that would've actually gotten simple flower colors correct for a bride on her wedding day. Every excuse Christine made was about the hot weather --- I'll bet hundreds of brides had hot pink dahlias and orange flowers at their July wedding, but I, for whatever reason, did not. Truly a big disappointment.

I am so glad I worked with Christine's Floral Touch for my wedding at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum. After receiving an extremely high quote from another florist, I contacted Christine. From the moment we met I knew I wanted Christine to be my florist. She was extremely approachable and enthusiastic, while balancing ultimate professionalism. I wanted gerbera daisies for my wedding, and Christine had great feedback about colors and arrangements. She is extremely creative and patient!! She provided me a quote that was extremely fair for 1 bridal bouquet, 4 bridesmaids bouquets, 2 flower girls bouquets, 14 centerpieces and various bud vases at the altar, 6 pew bouquets, and she even threw in a free toss bouquet that we chose to display on the place card table. The day of the wedding Christine was great. Due to the set-up of the event, she delivered the bouquets and all of the centerpieces before the ceremony and remained at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum during the ceremony in order to set up the centerpieces after the room had been flipped. She even recruited the flower girls to help her set-up, so they were not disruptive while I was getting dressed. Christine eliminated any stress I could have ever had about my flowers. I am very, very happy with what she provided!

I loved working with Christine and was ecstatic with my bouquet and the center pieces. I wasn't super into the flowers and gave Christine and my wedding planner a lot of creative freedom. They came up with and executed on some amazing concepts that were completely within the budget I provided. Christine was so flexible and willing to meet me near my office for our final consultation. She helped us get a great rate on the floating candles we used and the vases (I rented some, borrowed some, and she threw some in for free...so nice!) I'd highly recommend working with Christine!

I heard about Christine's Floral Touch from her mother at a social event. When she said her daughter had won awards for her work, I was impressed. I met with Christine soon after, and she exceeded my expectations. Our bouquets and centerpieces were gorgeous! My bridal bouquet still looks good five days after the wedding, which attests to the quality of the flowers. Not only did Christine provide prompt, excellent service for our wedding party, she acted as our advocate when another vendor fell short of our expectations. She documented the mistake so the vendor could correct it, and she told me after the wedding was over to avoid stressing me out before the ceremony and creating a Bridezilla. I gladly sing Christine's praises as a floral artist and as a person, and I recommend Christine's Floral Touch for any special event.

It’s always a little stressful when you meet with someone and try to describe what the vision is you have in your mind for your wedding day flowers. Our venue was the Elm Creek Park Chalet which has a very rustic feel that I wanted to keep simple, but we really wanted it to be unique and beautiful all at the same time. I met with Christine early on in the planning process just once; we chatted for awhile and our personalities just clicked, she seemed to totally understand what I was describing and she even gave me a few good ideas for a wishing tree for the guest book etc… I was so impressed with her portfolio and our immediate connection that I didn’t talk to any other florists!!!!! Over the next few months we exchanged a few emails and had one last coffee shop meeting before our wedding. On our wedding day my then fiancé saw the flowers before I did. He saw the venue table centerpieces, a few other arrangements, boutonnieres, my bouquet and my two bridesmaid’s bouquets and was freaking out at how awesome they looked! He was truly so excited about the flowers which, coming from a guy who didn’t really get into the wedding planning, was so thrilling for me! I was completely amazed at how spot on she interpret all the ideas we had discussed. It turned out even better than I had envisioned! I would highly recommend Christine’s Floral Touch!

I cannot say enough good things about Christine and the work that she does. I will and have recommended her to everyone I know. She is wonderful to work with. She goes above and beyond the call of duty, and doesn't leave until the job is done. We met early on to discuss what we needed for our wedding, and then again a couple weeks before to finalize details. She responded quickly to e-mails and phone calls. She was able to incorporate some cute snowflakes that I into my bouquet perfectly. Everything she did was top knotch. And to top it all off, she is so affordable! I loved working with Christine and you will too!

Christine was great to work with. She listened to ideas & gave helpful suggestions. I was happy with all of our flowers. The only issue was she called my mom my grandma, which my mom did not appreciate! :p
I would still recommend Christine.

Wonderful vendor to work with!! Gave her a general idea and she helped make it perfect. Also liked her willlingness to be flexible with both the budget (when I wanted to spend less she had great ideas to get the cost down), and the actual flowers. Changes made mid-way were easily accomodated, and the end product was absolutely gorgeous! Couldn't have gone any better from start to finish.

Christine was wonderful to work with. She was very flexible in scheduling appointments. She also listened very closely to my thoughts, as well as offered great suggestions. In addition, as things changed or I had different ideas, she gladly worked with me to make sure we were on the same page and accommodated my requests. She definitely went above and beyond my expectations on the wedding day in assisting in setting up at the reception site. The flowers were what I pictured in my mind and so much more. I would recommend Christine to any future bride, she was phenomenal.

I could not have asked for a better florist. Christine is everything I was looking for; quality, flexibility and service oriented. I'm fairly certain I drove her nuts with my constant back and forth on thoughts and ideas. Each time I changed my mind she was right there thinking of new ideas and plans. She was amazing. The quality of the arrangements were top notch. My bridesmaids loved their bouquets and commented on how well and long they lasted. Christine was just a pleasure all the way around. I would highly recommend her.

Christine is a great, easy going and flexible florist with whom to work. She has good intuition and can visualize your flowers along with you and delivers on the job. She was on time and worked with other vendors quite well. She's also very inexpensive compared to large florist studios.

Christine Was awsome! She did a beautiful job for a great price! She also helped set up everything at the reception hall.

She was incredibly well priced with a beautiful selection. I’m not super creative when it comes to flowers and she designed something very nice.

Christine's Floral Touch was AWESOME! Christine is extremely detail oriented and did everything she could to ease any stress on me and my husband during our special day! Our flowers were gorgeous and people are still commenting on how beautiful they were. Christine was flexible, accommodating, professional and affordable, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone searching for an awesome florist in the Twin Cities.

Christine was professional, timely, and helped out in any way she could on our special day. She took the flowers that I wanted and combined them with flowers of her choosing to create the perfect bouquets, corsages, and arrangements.

After describing to her exactly what I had envisioned for my flowers, Christine created my dream bouquet! My wedding flowers were PERFECT - precisely what I wanted! Besides being so easy and fun to work with, Christine delivered above and beyond my expectations! I would highly recommend Christine's Floral Touch!
