Fantastic, I can't describe how fabulous that my wedding flowers and ceter pieces were on our wedding day. All the flowers were fresh, and simply perfected as our finallize pieces. And they did add a lots of extra touches which we didn't request, and made it simply unforgettable.

Michelle was a dream to work with. She really brought my vision to life with absolutely gorgeous flowers that brought that extra pizzazz to the day. People were fighting over her centerpieces because everyone wanted to take one home.

Michelle was fabulous. I first met with her without really knowing what I wanted, but did have an idea of what I didn't want. At the end of the meeting, I was going to have a bouquet of orchids and mini-calla lilies! I never would have thought that's what I would have ended up with but she convinced me it would be beautiful, go with my dress and the site, and she was right. Everything was beautiful and worked well together. I never even interviewed another florist after meeting with Michelle. She mainly only did our personal flowers, so no centerpieces, but she spent a good amount of time with my mom and I discussing how we could DIY our own centerpieces for cheaper than what she could do. She was so nice, helpful and informative and I couldn't be happier with her work and service. Book her and never look back.

Our flowers were GORGEOUS! Michelle was a pleasure to work with. We met with three florists and showed them pictures of what we wanted. Michelle had the best prices and had the best understanding of flowers, what was in season and a general understanding of what we were looking for. She did a beautiful job, and we could not have been happier.

There is no vendor that I can give a higher recommendation or review of than Michelle Brue. Whether for her creative genius, her flawless execution or her unbeatable prices, we were completely blown away by Michelle. The flower choices, preservation, arrangements, bouquets, vases—each detail was beautiful and perfect. We gave Michelle some general flower preferences, colors and arrangement ideas that we liked and gave her creative freedom. What she came up with was beyond our wildest expectations and imagination. Every guest raved about the flowers—many told us that the arrangements they took home lasted for weeks. I adored my bouquet of peonies and orchids—it was the perfect combination of classic and glamour to compliment my dress. Michelle was extremely conscientious about out budget. She made many recommendations to reuse arrangements and bouquets during the reception. Michelle visited our unique venue with us and immediately came up with ways to fill spaces, cover unsightly areas, and make the most of the large space. Her attitude was enthusiastic and “can-do,” however she was also 100% honest with us, and made suggestions to some of my ideas to make them more affordable and realistic. Most importantly, when I first saw my bouquet, when we walked into the ceremony room and the reception room, my breath was taken away. Every bride should have that feeling, and Michelle will make it happen.

Love Michelle Brue. She is professional, affordable, and wonderful to work with. She helped bring my vision to life and worked within our budget. Everyone commented on how beautiful the flowers were. My mom couldn’t believe what we got for the price. Our guests took home every single arrangement, even the mini cubes of flowers on the place card table! I asked Michelle for something feminine, pretty, and not too “bridal” – and got exactly that. She even offered a free sample session without us having to request one. She really went beyond our expectations. I’m not particularly picky about flowers, but I know cheap arrangements when I see them. I’ve been to over 100 weddings in my life, and know wedding flowers pretty well. My arrangements were dense, fresh, and professionally done. The bouquets were especially stunning. I was surprised how many flowers were used for the bridesmaids bouquets. The colors really popped in photographs. Her arrangements helped tie the look of the event together. Nothing looked too contrived. One of my favorite things about Michelle is that she isn’t high maintenance. On the day of, she showed up on time and took care of everything. I didn’t have to worry about her at all. By the time I arrived at the venue, everything was set up perfectly. I highly recommend Flora by Fauna.

Michelle was great! The flowers at our wedding, everything from the bouquets to the center pieces to the cake, were just spectacular. It was more beautiful then what I had imagined and there were so much of it too. She was very easy to work with and her package is extremely reasonable. Michelle really listened to our ideas, understood our vision and provided great suggestions to make it even better. We interviewed about 10 florists, had a limited budget and were pretty specific about what we wanted and she was just perfect. This is one talented lady and her work is just amazing.

Michelle was a dream to work with, and made the most exquisite floral arrangements on our tiny budget. She is very easy to talk to, and very good at her job. I don't know much about flowers -- I just kept talking to her about colors and shapes and styles, and she just nodded and then magically created exactly what I had envisioned. She was prompt, friendly, reasonable, and calm. Also, my husband called her ahead of time to surprise me with flowers in our hotel room on our wedding night, and even they were absolutely amazing (she's good at secrets, too!). I highly recommend her!

Michelle Brue was great from start to finish! She took time to figure out exactly what I wanted and made it look 10 times better than I ever imagined.

She made a sample for me before I even booked her, something that most florist that I met with would not do.

I expressed to Michelle exactly how I wanted my bouquet to look, which was the most important thing to me. I have to say, she exceeded my expectation! I never thought my bouquet could be so gorgeous, but she put a lot of emphasis into it down to the smallest of details. Words can’t describe how gorgeous she made everything looked. One of my guests said it was breathtaking.

What really meant a lot to me was Michelle’s generosity and passion for her work. There were many things I wanted that just did not fit my budget and I had to take off the list. On the day of the wedding Michelle surprised me with some of those items. The most touching of it all was seeing two roses Michelle left at church so that they could be placed by my sister and I next to my Mother’s picture. It really brought tears to my eyes.

Like I said, from start to finish, Michelle was amazing.

Michelle is great! I had no idea what I wanted and she managed to make sense out of all my mutterings. I LOVED my bouquet.

Prices aren't too shabby either!
