Reviews for Grass Roots
GUEST




If you want an exquisitely beautiful wedding, chose Grassroots. From our first encounter, they were sensitive to our desires, preferences, and needs. They responded in a timely manner to our questions and emails. They delivered on time. More importantly, the arrangements were gorgeous, and the corsages so lovely. Their coordination with the weddings' color scheme was excellent.

Grass Roots did an absolutely beautiful job for my daughter's wedding. The flowers were all spectacular and we were thrilled with the way the venue looked due to their fantastic job.

We recently got back from our honeymoon and wanted to thank you for doing such an amazing job decorating our Sept. 2 wedding at the Four Seasons, Santa Barbara. The table centerpieces, the bamboo stands full of orchids, and that beautifully designed petal aisle runner gave our wedding that extra wow factor! They were all absolutely gorgeous and exceeded our expectations. We loved it and so did a few of our lucky guests who got to bring home some of the floral arrangements. Thanks again for your help and guidance with our wedding...we greatly appreciate it!
Regards,
Aaron & Latda

Eileen was absolutely incredible to work with! She took the time to really find out what our style was and what the vision was we had for our wedding - flowers we loved, flowers we hated, arrangement styles we liked and disliked, colors we wanted and did not want. She thought about and planned for how the flowers and glassware would compliment even the smallest detail of the wedding. She was always very honest about the cost, provided alternatives when necessary, and never made us feel as though we should be spending more money. We could not have been happier with the result and our guests have commented many times since about how stunning the flowers were and how they made the reception smell heavenly. Grass Roots has our highest recommendation for anyone seeking a wedding florist in the Santa Barbara area!

Working with Grass Roots was such a pleasure! Eileen made me feel comfortable with all of my decisions and she completely understood my vision. All of the flowers look absolutely beautiful and I felt honored to carry my bouquet around and didn't want to put it down! I HIGHLY recommend them!
Thank you Grass Roots!!

I really enjoyed working with Grass Roots for our wedding flowers. Eileen and Jessa did a phenomenal job, from start to finish. You can be as specific as you want in terms of requesting certain arrangements or (in my case) you can have a general idea of the colors and types of flowers, and they will use their creativity and experience to create beautiful arrangements. Eileen was cognizant of our budget and worked hard to ensure we would not go over. They are extremely dependable and I felt very comfortable going into my wedding day knowing that my flowers would look gorgeous.

Such a pleasure to work with Grass Roots. They helped me keep in budget, did a beautiful job and were helpful and reassuring the entire way through the process.

I contacted Grass Roots approximately 4 months before my wedding to see if they were available to do flowers for my wedding. I had a fairly small flower budget, but they were willing to work with me to get me what I needed and wanted. I had some pictures of flowers I liked and disliked and Eileen took time to go through the pictures with me to learn my tastes. She then showed me pictures of flowers they had done and was able to point out flowers I would like and those I probably would not want. She really understood what I wanted. Eileen also helped work within my budget by recommending the smaller centerpieces - which worked perfectly on my tables. I had 2 different centerpieces - low floral centerpieces on half the tables and tall candelabra centerpieces on the other half. I rented the candelabras from Grass Roots, and they created an incredibly romantic vibe at the reception. They were votive candelabras, which was perfect since my venue did not allow open flames/tapers. The bouquets that Grass Roots provided were incredible! They matched the pictures I showed Eileen perfectly and were amazing. I got so many compliments on the flowers, everyone loved them. I would highly recommend Grass Roots to other brides in the Santa Barbara area!

Grass Roots provided gorgeous arrangements and definitely saw our "vision". That isn't always easy to accomplish long distance. We were very impressed with their work.

Grass Roots were a pleasure to work with and I would happily recommend them to friends and future brides.

What more can you say about Eileen and her crew besides AMAZING? The flowers, chuppah, and centerpieces were perfect. Better than I ever could have imagined. She was always on top of everything. The first moment we met, and she had me trying the different sizes of the bouquets, I knew that she was the one for the job. My husband and I feel like we got very lucky with most of the vendors we picked. Eileen was definitely one of those vendors!
GUEST




We used Grass Roots for our wedding, July 30th, 2011 at Godric Grove at Eling's Park in Santa Barbara. They did a fantastic job! Eileen was helpful and calming every step of the way, and really helped me narrow down my color choices. It was always fun to meet with her and talk about the flowers.
The flowers were just amazing! Through all my rambling she produced something with exactly the feel that I wanted. They were just gorgeous. She did our wedding arch with side arrangements, centerpieces, bridal and bridal party bouquets, and all the guys boutinners and mother's corsages. I was really blown away by how gorgeous it all looked. Just stunning! Thank you Eileen for a fantastic job!
GUEST




We could not be happier with having chosen Grass Roots for our wedding. They got the style and colors we wanted exactly right, helped iron out a last minute vase crisis, made great, cost-saving suggestions for lanterns and candles to complement the flowers, the blooms and arrangements were gorgeous and of amazing quality, and the flowers stayed fresh and beautiful for days after the wedding. Fantastic.
GUEST




Eileen and Jessa were AMAZING!!!!! I would absolutely recommend working with them in a heartbeat! I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted regarding flowers, but after watching me look through several books, Eileen figured out exactly what I wanted - perfectly!
My bridal bouquet was amazing - just the right size, fullness and flowers and the bridesmaids bouquets were beautiful and complimented the dresses perfectly!
In addition, they were extremely professional and I never even thought to worry about anything!
Again....just amazing! I can't say enough good things about Grassroots!!!!!!
GUEST




After already having made a million decisions for our wedding, it was so nice to work with Eileen at Grass Roots. Her experience was invaluable. I have definite likes and dislikes but had no specific vision of what my wedding flowers should look like. At our appointment, Eileen asked for my wedding details and opinions on various flower arrangement photos. As a bonus, she was already very familiar with my Santa Barbara wedding venue and could steer me toward the best fit for the location. Eileen took all this information and made magic. I was surprised and delighted when I first saw our venue, all dressed up with Eileen's flowers. My groom was just as happy. I got so many compliments from the guests--even our photographer said the room looked like it had been set up for a photo shoot! There's not much else a bride could ask for.
GUEST




Having Eileen and Jessa at Grass Roots put my wedding bouquets together, was one of the best decisions I made. From start to finish, the process was relaxing, stress free and enjoyable. After speaking via phone and email and explaining the colors that were being used in my wedding and that I wanted to use artichokes and succulents, I knew when I finished explaining it all, that Eileen knew exactly what I wanted.
And when the day arrived, and my flowers were delivered to my room, I saw the most beautiful set of bouquets with vibrant purples and deep colored artichokes with wonderfully green succulents. My breathe was taken away. They were STUN-ING!
Well done Grass Roots! Well done!
Extremely happy bride,
Laura

Eileen was wonderful to work with. She was easy going yet very professional. I gave her a few guidelines regarding what I envisioned for our wedding day flowers but for the most part allowed her creative freedom. What she created was beautiful and more than I had hoped. The flowers had an organic effortless sophistication that perfectly complimented our small wedding. I couldn't be more thrilled with the outcome.
GUEST




Needless to say, planning a wedding can be a very stressful endeavor. Flowers are one of the most important components of the whole affair and help sent the mood and ambiance of the event. My daughter was a very particular and demanding bride (read "bridezilla"). Eileen walked us through the process with empathy and patience. I don't know what I would have done without her to mediate and put things in perspective.
The wedding turned out absolutely beautiful and I am so grateful to have had her support and expertise.
GUEST




They were great. Out of all the vender's I worked with for our wedding they were my favorite. Always very nice and full of great ideas for all areas of our wedding. There service didn't stop at the flowers. As we were planning I would share some ideas with them and they would give me their honest feedback which was very helpful since they do this on a daily basis. All the flowers were breath taking. I didn't live in the area so I only got to meet with them in person one time but they took my explanation and vision of what I was looking for and nailed it. They were perfect!
GUEST




Eileen was very pleasant to deal with. She was very accommodating and flexible to our needs and budget. Her creativity and designs are amazing. She understood what flowers and designs we wanted spot on! Thank you Eileen for everything :-)
GUEST




We were so happy with all the beautiful work Grassroots did for our wedding. The end result was so much more than we could have hoped for. Eileen and Jessa were fantastic helping us translate our wedding's envision into flowers! We would highly recommend Grassroots to anyone!
GUEST




Grassroots did all of the flowers for my wedding this past summer (August 2010) and I have no complaints. I met with Eilene twice, the first time without any real idea of what I wanted. She walked me through a ton of pictures and was able to get an idea of what I would like by watching my reaction, amazing! My second meeting we basically had to do the same thing all over again because my bridesmaids' dresses came in a much different color than I was expecting. Eilene was patient and took her time to help me figure out what I could do with my new color scheme. We e-mailed back and forth throughout the whole process and she kept me informed the whole time. It was a great experience!
GUEST




I loved working with Grass Roots! I cannot say enough good things about them and I would recommend them in a heartbeat. I had no idea where to start with flowers for my wedding. I was quite a terrible client in that way--I didn't know what I wanted or even what I liked! But Eileen was incredibly patient with me--spending a great deal of time trying to learn my likes and dislikes. And she nailed it! My flowers were gorgeous--just exactly what I wanted (and remember, I didn't know what I wanted, but somehow she figured it out!). And I ended up spending less money than I had budgeted for. Eileen was very honest about pricing and often gave suggestions on how to cut costs and to make the most of my money. The service was incredibly personal, the flowers were beautiful, and the prices were very reasonable. You will not regret using Grass Roots! They are amazing!
GUEST




Grass Roots was amazing to work with during my recent wedding. Although all my interaction was through my wedding coordinator or via email, service was impeccable. I had a generic idea in mind for flowers and Grass Roots hit the nail on the head. I am still getting compliments about the flowers! Thanks!
GUEST




I contacted Grass Roots at the recommendation of the catering manager at the site we chose and was absolutely impressed with how easy they made it. My husband and I were planning a wedding for 60 people, in six weeks, in a city I had never visited. When I called, despite having firmly held views on design in general, I had little concept of what was need for the space or what types of flowers I preferred. Eileen talked to me at length and teased out what my style was and the flowers turned out beautifully. We received tons of compliments on them during our event and they were exactly what I would have wanted if I had had the time to sit down and plan this on a more leisurely timeline. I have always joked that the only real skill I possess is my ability to be critical but fortunately for me Jessa and Eilleen are true artists and consummate professionals--I was truly impressed.
GUEST




Flowers were one of the most important aspects of my wedding. From the first time we spoke, Eileen helped encourage me to really express my personality through my flower choices, helping me create interesting and unique floral ideas. Eileen helped keep me on track and encouraged my ideas - though some were not mainstream. Her service and attention to detail were impeccable. The flowers were breathtaking and even more gorgeous than I could have ever hoped for. I received endless compliments on the flowers! I would highly recommend Grass Roots!
