Reviews for Marah Cole Designs
GUEST




Marah's creativity and responsiveness exceeded my expectations! At our first meeting, she had many beautiful books and photos from which we were able to pull together a floral package including bouquets, centerpieces, and ceremony flowers for my modest budget. I was very impressed with the value and Marah's ability to make adjustments to fit my budget and taste. She communicated promptly and professionally and I would work with her again for any special event. I highly recommend Marah's designs for your wedding day or other special occasion!

I can honestly say this was one of the best experiences of my entire wedding planning process. Marah and I met to discuss my expectations and goals, she was conscious of my budget, thoughtful and very creative to capture the exact look I was going for. She is very professional, prompt and responsible. I met with a few other vendors before choosing Marah Cole Designs; none of them came close to her in way of price, creativity, and responsiveness. I absolutely loved my flowers and would recommend her for any type of occasion.

GUEST




My husband and I researched a lot of florists before choosing Marah because we needed to stick to a budget with our flowers, and wanted the highest quality for what we could afford. Marah had a lot of great ideas and ways to cut down on costs, whereas some florists acted offended or made snide comments like, "Your bouquet is going to be really small". Marah was one of our favorite wedding vendors and we felt completely comfortable working with her. She is so flexible, kind, and easy going. We could not afford floral table decorations and collected or handmade our centerpieces. I was so impressed that Marah was still happy to arrange our tables at the reception, and did a beautiful job with the materials we provided her. Marah responded to emailed questions and calls very promptly. Her work is of the highest quality, and she chose the perfect colors and blooms to capture the fall theme of our wedding day!

Marah was so great to work with for our wedding! I researched 3 other florists and she was by far the best. I gave her my ideas and she executed them beautifully. She was also extremely helpful in making suggestions for the boutonnieres and corsages when I wasn't exactly sure what to do. She was always timely in responding to me when I had questions. She also set up the centerpieces at the ceremony so nobody in the wedding party had to worry about that. Overall she did a wonderful job and I would definitely recommend her to anybody that is getting married. Thanks so much, Marah!

We are Floral Wholesalers in Phoenix so of course we wanted the flowers to be fantastic for our daughter's wedding in Stillwater, MN. We made the perfect choice when we hired Marah to be the floral designer for Kelly and Dana's wedding. Marah listened well, was creative, acommodating and thorough in the beautiful arrangements she did for us. Marah created two incredible altar arrangements on site and worked extremely hard to make sure everything was just right. We received compliments from all who attended about how beautiful the flowers were. We appreciate all of her efforts and would highly recommend Marah as the florist for your event.

What a great job done by Marah Cole Designs on my flowers for my wedding on 9/24/11. The flowers were exaclty what we talked about and everyone kept commenting on how great they looked. She is super flexible and willing to work with you on your budget. I would highly recommend! Thank you!

We thought Marah did an absolutely great job! She took on our wedding 8 weeks before and even did our wedding on her anniversary. We had a general idea of what we wanted for flowers but Marah really made it come to life. She had great suggestions about how to fit what we wanted into our budget. The flowers definitely looked amazing! We struggled to find a florist and wish we would have found her sooner since she was so easy to work with. We would definitely recommend her to friends. She was hands down one of our best and favorite vendors that we worked with.
GUEST




Marah did an amazing job on my wedding flowers. I went to her not thinking I could get anything for what I could afford, but she worked with me and made me feel comfortable. On our wedding day people couldn't stop noticing our beautiful flowers!! Marah went above and beyond when making my bouquets, corsages, Boutineneers and extras. She truly is talented and made our flowers gorgeous. Thank you!
GUEST




Marah Cole Designs was my florist for my wedding on April 2, 2011 in St. Paul, MN. She could not have been more amazing to work with, and I am thrilled to have found her. Our budget was very tight, and she was the only florist that I spoke to whose quote came in under the budget! She was wonderful in working with us to meet my vision. Her work is amazing, and even more, she is amazing. She was extremely helpful in setting up the church and the reception hall, and she helped the groomsmen with their boutonnières. I cannot tell you how many compliments we got on the day of our wedding on the alter pieces, aisle decorations, center pieces, and bouquets. Marah does a phenomenal job, know that she will work to make your vision come true!
GUEST




Marah is amazing! My flowers were beautiful and absolutely perfect. I wasn't sure what I wanted for centerpieces and I was able to give her a few things I liked and she created exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend Marah and wouldn't even think to use anyone else!
GUEST




Beautiful color of flowers went so well with the bridesmaids' dresses and the guys shirts and ties. Great service and flexibility to deliver some flowers to our home beforehand, and some other flowers to the ceremony venue.
GUEST




Marah provided me beautiful and amazing flowers for my wedding. She knew exactly what I wanted and what I was looking for. The flowers really brought out my wedding colors in all of the pictures. Definitely would recommend!
GUEST




Marah was incredible! Not only were the flowers and arrangments she provided stunning, she was also super organized and very reliable. I'd recommend Marah to any friend of mine who was getting married. Thanks for everything Marah!
GUEST




Marah did a wonderful job with my wedding flowers; she was even able to deliver them promptly the day before the ceremony and kept them looking wonderful throughout the day of the wedding. I wasn't sure on what flowers I wanted, all I knew was I wanted a variety of red, and Marah was able to envision a beautiful bouquet for me that fit my description perfectly with flowers that complimented each other very well. Her prices were great, and when deciding on my floral arrangements she walked me through everything and was able to help me decide on what items were important to me to have that were within my budget. Marah was very friendly, yet professional and made my special day look amazing!
GUEST




Marah was a pleasure to hire as our wedding florist. She worked with us to provide the flowers we needed, and was professional, flexible, helpful, a prompt communicator, and personable. When we give her a few ideas of what we might like (we didn't have a lot of specific requests besides orchids) she ran with it and created a gorgeous series of bouquets, boutinnieres, flower girl baskets, and corsages that our wedding party was just thrilled with.
Her eye for color and texture is exceptional and her designs are stunning. The flowers in our photos really popped. I've already recommended her to my friends and will continue to do so. We were wholeheartedly pleased with her work and customer service. We highly recommend Marah Cole Designs!

Marah was so wonderful to work with. She really helped us discover what we really wanted. The flowers were perfect on my wedding day.
GUEST




Marah Cole is amazing. She loves what she does and it shows. Her designs were so beautiful. I have told many brides to check her out. Her prices are just as great as the Flowers and Decorations. I was very happy with Marah. I would hire her again, and plan to for all my flower and decoration needs.
GUEST




We were so lucky to have found Marah Cole at a local wedding fair. After our first meeting, it was obvious that she was a wonderful florist and business owner. Marah's quality of work exceeded that of any other florist we met with.
On our wedding day, I was thrilled with our flowers...they turned out exactly how I imagined they would! We received so many compliments about our flowers. Thank you Marah!!!
GUEST




Marah always had time for me when I needed to chat about what I wanted or how things for the wedding evolved over the nearly year and half I had her booked. The flowers were beautiful, she incorporated everything I asked for. She was great and helpful on the day of the wedding. What I loved was that she truly was a designer, while I gave her many things that I was interested in incorporating, te flowers still had her touch. I hired her based on her aesthetic, and I was glad to see that it carried through in the flowers she made for me.
GUEST




I used Marah for my wedding and the flowers turned out amazing! Everything turned out better than I ever could have imagined! She gave us beautiful, high quality, fresh flowers. The flowers even lasted for the whole week after the wedding!
Working specifically with Marah was a great experience too. She was very easy to get a hold of, offered very flexible meeting times, was always on time, and always came prepared. She has tons of photos to look through and tons of ideas to give. Marah took a strong interest in finding out exactly what we wanted for our wedding and offered very personalized attention to detail. She never tried to push her ideas on us and never pressured us into anything. She was very open about her pricing and made sure we knew what each item would cost so there were no surprises when we got the final bill. By the way, you can't beat her pricing! We researched a few different florists and were given quotes for way more than Marah's pricing!
The day of the wedding couldn't have run more smoothly. Marah showed up on on time, delivered to two locations, set up everything just as planned, and even helped the guys put on their boutonnieres! Marah is very knowledgeable, talented, dependable, and creative. I definitely recommend Marah; you'll love your flowers and you'll have a lot of fun working with her!
GUEST




Marah was wonderful to work with and the products were breathtaking and more amazing than I could have imagined. I loved her creative touches and her flexibility was wonderful to with things that were out of season that I had originally requested. She knew exactly what I wanted and produced products that exceeded my expectations. Her pricing was competitive with other vendors I had inquired with but her personality and her character sold me from the first time I met her. I would highly recommend Marah having a part in your special day!
GUEST




Marah was great! she had excellent ideas and really worked and getting what I wanted! In fact she came through in a last minute pinch when Sam's club didn't order my flowers for the vases, cake and reception hall she was able to bring extra with when she dropped of the bouquets!
GUEST




Marah was excellent to work with. She was able to get all the flowers I wanted for my winter wedding!!!!!
GUEST




I could not have been happier with our wedding day flowers from Marah. My bouquet was everything I envisioned it would be...I didn't want to put it down the entire day and night.
Marah was wonderful to work with. She was very knowledgeable, professional, and as excited as I was about my wedding day flowers. My husband and I chose a fragile flower and Marah cleverly hid a water source in my bouquet so that the flowers would hold up. My bouquet looked perfect even at the end of the night.
I highly recommend Marah Cole Designs!
GUEST




I really enjoyed working with Marah and felt that she did an excellent job getting me the look I wanted for the price I needed. Many other vendors would not budge on price or did not offer solutions to help meet my price range. With Marah, all I had to say was "that doesn't work for me" and she asked what I wanted to pay and then offered suggestions on what flowers to cut or offered substitutions for flowers that looked similar to the ones I wanted to use. I really enjoyed our meetings as well. She is very relaxed so to some it may come off as a little unprofessional, but to me it seemed like she just wanted me to be comfortable. And it worked. I liked her right away and pretty much new I was choosing her even though she was the first vendor I met with.

Marah was wonderful to work with! Very accomodating to make sure we were getting exactly what we wanted and willing to change the numbers when people in the wedding mixed around a bit. Thanks!!
GUEST




Marah Cole was so great to work with on my wedding flowers in November. This was my second marriage and she knew exactly what would work for me and my groom. The flowers were fresh and fabulous. She is so professional and the quality of service was excellent. She has great instincts and ability to listen to what I was thinking of and then helped me pick the "right" flowers for my special day. She has a great eye for colors and what flowers look the best for the season of when your wedding takes place.
It was a perfect day and Marah helped to a make it perfect. I recommend her highly to all, she is the perfect florist!

Both my husband and I were living in a different state while planning our wedding, Marah was willing to meet us on weekends. Our flowers were great and she was willing to work with our budget.
GUEST




Marah was very upbeat and prfessional during our meetings. Any concerns or questions that I had, she responded to quickly. She is very open to your own ideas and also has great ideas of her own. My fall floral arrangements were absolutely beautiful!! I would definitely reccomend her to future brides.
GUEST




marah does beautiful work! She provides excellent ideas to compliment and improve the brides ideas. She is willing to work with and just products to fit a budget. I had her do our centerpieces too, which were not only beautiful but a load off my mind when setting up for the reception...one less thing to worry about. She is very personable and easy to work with. Highly recommend Marah Cole Designs to all Minneapolis-St. Paul brides.
GUEST




Marah did a fantastic job on our wedding flowers. I knew what color scheme and overall look I wanted, but I don't know much about flowers and I didn't have a lot of specific ideas going into the process. Marah knew just what questions to ask and was able to come up with designs that were exactly what I was looking for. I couldn't believe how beautiful the flowers were when we walked into the reception hall--I was floored! Marah is also really friendly and pleasant to work with. She never tries to upsell you with stuff you don't want or need, and is very willing to work with your budget. The only problem we ever experienced was a couple of scheduling issues for our consultations, but the end result more than made up for it. I would definitely recommend her.
GUEST




Very helpful, it was great that we were able to pick up ou flowers instead of having them delivered. It saved $100- so appreciated on a budget!
GUEST




I was not impressed. Marah called the week of the wedding with news some of the plants chosen had not been cared for properly and therefore could not be used---a sentimental part of the wedding bouquets. Corsages were put together with double sided tape that fell apart during the ceremony. Formal pictures showed falling flowers throughout. I wish I would have used another florist for this once in a lifetime event.
If you are looking for beautiful floral and one incredibly nice person, Marah Cole is your lady :)
