Flora Bella Designs

I knew nothing about flowers when I started looking for a wedding florist. I met Stephanie at a bridal show and really liked her. Her personality was more mellow and her flowers weren't as overdone as some of the booths. I then found out that one of my friends had used her for her wedding which was even better. When I met with Stephanie to discuss the wedding, I brought her a bunch of photos of flowers that I liked and she was able to make my vision a reality (and for a great price). I loved working with Stephanie!

I wish I could give Stephanie more than 5 points on everything! She was an absolute dream to work with and I an a flower freak! I knew exactly what I wanted and she made my vision come to life even better than I could have imagined. Her work in impeccable and I appreciated how many times she was willing to meet with me. The value for the cost is off the charts! I can't say enough positive things about Flora Bella Designs. You will be so thrilled with your decision.

All of the Flowers were beautiful and exactlly what I wanted!!! Stephanie did a wonderful job, and even worked with my idea of Knots for the Boutonnieres.

Stephanie was absolutely wonderful to work with for our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception. Her flower arrangements are very beautiful! She created exactly what I had envisioned and was so easy to work with. I would highly recommend her services.

Stephanie was able to take my vague ideas about the flowers I wanted for my wedding and was able to make beautiful arrangements. She is very patient and knowledeable and I have recommended her to other brides!

We had the honor of having Stephanie as our florist. She is totally amazing. Our flowers were beautiful and perfect. In fact, the minister of Christ Church Cathedral, where the ceremony was told my daughter that this was by far the prettiest wedding they have had. The flowers were incredible....just as my daughter envisioned! Stepahanie even went above and beyond and was able to locate peonies for the bridal bouquet! Jessi loves these and was hoping for them. I would recommend Flora Bella to anyone who needs a awesome florist! Stephanie is so laid back and so willing to go above and beyond to help make that special day as special as possible! Thank you Stephanie!

OMG!!! Stephanie just did my wedding a week from today and I loved her! I had a vision and she made it all happened! she was on time and the flowers turned out better then image!! Thank you stephanie for making my wedding wonderful!!

Stephanie was great to work with! I might have been a more difficult bride because I changed my mind a few times, but Stephanie was really good at trying to understand exactly what I wanted...even through email because I live in Dallas. We met twice before the wedding to go over the arrangements and budget, and she was so helpful. She suggested flowers that would go well with what we wanted and suggested other options that would be more cost effective. It was like we were working with a friend because she is so easy going and relaxed. The flowers turned out beautiful and look absolutely amazing in all of our pictures. I had guests commenting on how fresh the flowers looked compared to other weddings that they'd been to recently, which was something I didn't really think about before. Stephanie was great and genuinely wanted to put together exactly what I was looking for...and did.

I highly recommend Stephanie, she was a sweetheart to work with and her arrangements were beautiful. She made my bridal portrait bouquet, bridal bouquet, toss bouquet, 5 bridesmaids bouquets, 12 boutonnieres, and 3 corsages, and our entry arrangement. Our budget was very conservative but you wouldn't have known from the flowers, all of the arrangements were gorgeous.My undergraduate degree is in horticulture, I was very concerned that our flowers be the very most beautiful that the fresh flower markets had to offer. I know cut flower crops can be highly variable and asked Stephanie to use her professional judgement to select flowers that would coordinate well with the color scheme and would be top quality on our wedding day.Her choices from the fresh flower markets were perfect, everything was lovely. The beauty of her work truly showed in our wedding photos.Thank you Stephanie!

Stephanie was incredible to work with. We had several pre wedding meetings and I knew she would do a great job the day of. She offered opinions without being pushy and really nailed creating the arrangements I had in mind. She even went out of her way to call me from her New York market shopping trip and e-mail phone pics from different "crystal" vendors to see if I liked what she was finding. Quality and value together...highly recommended!

I added things and modified my flowers so many times over the year and a half of planning. Stephanie was always quick to respond and willing to help. The flowers at the wedding were absolutely amazing. We had so many flowers EVERYWHERE! I feel like I got a real bang for my buck. The flowers were one of my MOST FAVORITE parts of the wedding. I can't stop talking about how beautiful they were!

Stephanie was wonderful to work with! She went out of her way to meet with us several times before the wedding and was always helpful in offering cost-effective and beautiful suggestions for flowers. She even purchased lanterns for us to rent and use at the church. We were so touched that she went through all the trouble to get us just what we wanted. The flowers were beautiful and just what we imagined!

Stephanie is a wonderful florist. She did the flowers for our wedding (bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, centerpieces, cake flowers) and was very professional. In addition, since she works from home and doesn't have to rent out a shop, she is more affordable than other florists of her caliber.My only gripe is that the the bridal bouquet was not exactly as I had envisioned -- but perhaps my description was not completely clear and/or I could have provided her with more pictures to give her an idea of what I was looking for. Also, it really can vary depending on what flowers are available at the time. Overall, I think the flowers were great!

I absolutely loved working with Stephanie. Her contact information was passed onto me from another bride... I couldn't have asked for a better florist!!! I didn't really know what I wanted when I first spoke with her. She made awesome suggestions and everything combine for an absolutely beautiful bouquet for all!!!! I loved my flowers so much that I was trying to figure out how to preserve my flowers without them crumpling from being dried. I had to settle with fantastic pictures. I would highly suggest Flora Bella for any special occasion. Stephanie will create an amazing arrangement.

Stephanie was great thoughout the whole process of choosing my wedding flowers. I change my wedding three times so she accomodated me with changing the flowers to amtch my dress. I was very pleased with Stephanie. I got married on Valentine's day and she didn't jack up the flower prices like the other vendors I had met with. She is totally reasonable and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend her.

Stephanie did such a great job - I would recommend her highly!

After meeting with several florists in Houston, I decided to go with Stephanie for my wedding day flowers. She has great ideas and is very reasonably priced. She will be doing my flowers for my February 2010 wedding, so I will write a more detailed review when it is all over. She is doing my entire wedding ceremony and reception flowers and came out under $2500, which is great for this area. There are so many choices for florists in Houston, but I feel that Stephanie puts 100% of her time and effort into each bride that comes to her. She works out of her home so her prices reflect that as well.

I absolutely loved the photos from Stephanie's other weddings. Her worked looked beautiful. During our consultation I gave her 3 photos of what I wanted my flowers to look like. Two were actual flowers with specific colors that I wanted and one of them was of hanging pearls which was an effect I wanted on my centerpieces (the photo was actually one of her photos from one of her previous weddings). I wanted antique green hydrangeas, ivory roses and maybe lavendar colored flowers. My wedding colors were purple and ivory. When she dropped the flowers off at the venue, all of my flowers included pink flowers which is not what I asked or paid for, one of the boutinniers was not provided, the hanging pearl detail on the centerpieces is not what I wanted, the flower girl hanging ball looked dead, most of the flowers looked dead with brown coloring, the ribbon was not smooth and pretty, at the end of the night, I touched one of the centerpieces and the top was crunchy and not soft like flowers should be and the rose boutonniers were falling apart-some of the rose pedals were barely hanging on. I overpaid for her services and I feel I got ripped off. I was sooo excited to see how her flowers would look. Everything about my wedding was great and the only thing I disliked were the flowers.
