Very nice and understanding! Michelle knows how a wedding should be designed and has great experience.
GUEST




Shell was incredible! The reception was SO stunningly beautiful. She also helped decorate the cake, saving us a ton of money, and she helped set up a super cute "mistletoe booth" where people could get their pictures taken. I highly recommend her!
GUEST




Shell is amazing at what she does! She is very sweet and easy to work with, you can tell she has done many weddings before! I would recommend anyone in the Ventura area to work with her! Amazing flowers and very creative!!
GUEST




The best flower arrangment, listened to my needs and executed my thoughts beautifully, was also my event planner!! Michelle was amazing and I would recommend her to anyone who needed almost anything for their wedding day!!
GUEST




I enjoyed working with Shell, and the quality of the flowers was great. She supplied my bouquet, my MOH's bouquet and some rose petals for the ceremony. We opted to create our own centerpieces to save money. The bouquets were made from Calla Lillies. I met with her once, gave her a picture of what I wanted, described the colors and described what I wanted for the MOH's bouquet. She created them perfectly. We did not to any sample bouquets, so I was not sure how it would turn out. They were gorgeous! Better than I had hoped for, and it was easy working with her. I would definitely recommend her.

Michelle was very good to work with. She was flexible in her arrangements and she put in everything I had asked for. I was on a budget and Orchids are my favorite flower. Even though I couldn't use them throughout my entire wedding, she still incorporated them in the most important part of the wedding, my wedding party for the groomsmen. She did a great job with my flowers and centerpieces. I loved it all! She was very responsive and even though I gave her 4 stars, she still responded pretty quickly. I always contacted her on the weekends and I truly believe that if she wasn't so busy with other weddings, she would have responded faster. She is very nice and worked well with my wedding coordinator who was almost impossible to work with, even for me. I would definitely recommend her to you and my friends.

'Shell was great to work with! We met a few times to plan out the floral arrangements, bouquets, boutonnieres, etc. and she definitely knows her stuff! On wedding day I was a little surprised to see that the bouquets did not have all the flowers we had agreed would be in them, but she really outdid herself to make them even more beautiful than I had expected (instead of red and orange dahlias we got some amazing red-orange stargazer lilies - my other favorite flower!). No matter what, 'Shell will come through for you and make your event amazingly beautiful!

Thank God I found Shell's Petals! I was on a VERY tight budget and was embarrased to even present it to Shell at our first meeting. But she was so professional and enthusiastic, I was thrilled and relieved to have found her. I had met with two other florists before Shell, and left each of them with a feeling of disappointment in their suggestions. I had accepted that due to my small budget I was going to have to settle with something I really didn't envision. HOWEVER, after meeting with Shell, I was excited and confident that she connected with me and totally understood my vision for my special day. I cannot convey my excitement and appreciation when I saw my flower arrangements and bouquets. Even the boutonnieres were awesome. Her work is beautiful, unique and classy. Her level of professionalism is to be commended as is her ability to accommodate any budget. When people look at my wedding photos, they always comment on my beautiful bouquet. Her flower creations made my wedding day just that much more magical!
GUEST




The flowers at my wedding, my reception site and on my cake were absolutely perfect. I felt like I was in a dream the whole day and much could be attributed to Shell and her flowers. Thank you so much for making my day so incredible.
GUEST




Shell was awesome. Not only did she do an excellent job with our flowers she also coordinated our wedding for the day. Shell made everything run smoothly and my flowers were absolutely beautiful. I told her what I wanted, left it to her and she did a beautiful job. She found ways I could use reuse items for the ceremony and reception which saved us money.
GUEST




Shells Petals is excellent! I got married July 31st the flowers she provided were gorgeous. I only had a little idea of what I wanted. But she helped us come up with some really neat ideas. She also helped us figure out a timeline for the wedding and reception. She was just an over all wonderful person and such a pleasure to work with. Excellent service very professional and you can tell she just loves her job. Would and will definitely recommend her in the future.
GUEST




Shell's petals was great. We had the same taste so it made everything that much easier. Michelle was awesome and very nice. The only thing I would have to complain about is the flowers that were for our moms, grandma, and aunts were suppose to be wrist corsages and they were boutonnieres and all boutonnieres were suppose to be red and my husband was suppose to be the only one with white but that got a little mixed up. But other than that Shell's Petals were great to work with.

I loved your vision with the osterich feathers and the classic red and white. You looked so beautiful and your families were so happy! A joy to work with. I have an open communication with my brides, but I am going to have to figure a way to limit emails to avoid any mistakes such as this. But all in all it was a great day and at the end of it when Lindsay and Roy gave me big hugs all the hard work was worth it! Congratulations!
GUEST




Shell gave me the most beautiful bouquet, center pieces, and floral arrangments I have ever seen. I still have my bouquet in a vase at home almost one week later, and the flowers still look amazing! I can't stop staring at it.
Although there was a minor hiccup with the birds of paradise (not Shell's fault), we found some in the end and they made the centerpieces and the ceremony aisle simply breathtaking! We had so many comments on how beautiful the flowers were, they turned out even better than we could have hoped for.
Thank you so much Shell!

Michelle at Shells petals did a great job for my May 1st wedding. I loved everything! She did the flowers for my friends wedding the weekend before and they were great for hers as well!
Michelle met me in the middle in Newbury park to save me a trip to Ventura-that was convenient. The color of the hydrangeas was EXACTLY what I pictured. She had some extra flower petals from a previous event and offered to bring them and scatter on my cupcake table. I really appreciated her going the extra mile. She was very easy to communicate with and she always responded quickly to my questions and concerns. I would pick her all over again and I would recommend her for any bride.
Thank you Michelle!

I was so very pleased with the flowers from Shell's Petals. I LOVED my bouquet. It was the exact deep shade of red that I was looking for. All the flowers looked lovely. The personal flowers were delivered early which was nice and Shell set everything up at the reception and they looked fantastic. I had asked for all red flowers for the centerpieces and all red rose petals for the cake table and some cream flowers were in the centerpieces and cream petals with the red ones on the cake table. Not what I asked for but they looked fabulous so I didn't mind. We went to see her progress the day before the wedding and had most of the centerpieces to show us and when I saw the cream flowers I let it be. It looked better than I thought it would. Over all Shell was great to work with and she loves her job. I would totally recommend her for any wedding or special event.
GUEST




Michelle did a great job with my flowers for my wedding. She was extremely flexible with me and helped me figure out what I wanted. My flower arrangements looked wonderful and were exactly what I wanted. It took a few tries but she was able to get everything done and that was more because I was unsure of what exactly I wanted. Only complaints are that I would have liked to see a sample of the centerpieces earlier than a week before the wedding and that the flower girls did not get their wreaths for their hair, but no real complaints since I went back and forth on things so many times. She was extremely patient with me and I could not have been happier with how everything turned out. Great value and she will work with you with your budget and is extremely helpful. Hire her today and you won't be let down.
GUEST




Book Michelle immediately! Don't hesistate. She was wonderful to work with and I will definitely be using her again. She was so excited about my vision for the flowers and executed it perfectly. She loves what she does and it shows. She was very responsive and happy to work within my small budget. I felt very lucky to have her as my florist.
GUEST




Shell provided beautiful flower arrangements for our June wedding. She really listened to what we wanted and worked with our budget. Shell really helped our wedding dreams come true. We love her so much we invited her to our wedding.
GUEST




Michelle does amazing work. Always friendly and reliable. She knows how to listen and create exactly what is wanted in an arrangement. Would highly recommend.
GUEST




Shell was one of the sweetest woman I've ever met! She will go above and beyond to help your vision come true for your flowers, and also keeping your budget in mind. I loved my bouquet and all of my bridesmaids were gorgeous too. She also was able to accommodate us with using fabric I provided to wrap all of the stems of the bouquets. Love her!
GUEST




Shell was so easy to work with from the very first minute I met her. She far exceeded my expectations of my floral decor at my wedding. I would use her again... anyday.

Thank you, I enjoyed working on your wedding...you looked like a supermodel!
GUEST




Michelle's work was wonderful. She worked with us with our budget. She made suggestions on what kind of flowers would be availble for this month.
My bouquet was gorgeous.
She really knows her work She decorated the arch wonderfully.




Shell is beyond great. She took me on with less than a month to go, since I had to terminate the contract I had with my previous florist. Shell rocked out my wedding with ingenious and unique flower combinations (especially impressive since she had less than 4 weeks to pull it off). I could not be more pleased or happy with the way my flowers turned out. Above all, she was a dream vendor by promptly returning calls and keeping open communication at all times. I whole-heartedly recommend Shell to all!! Grade: A+
GUEST




Shell's Petals is the best there is. I think I got more compliments on my bridal bouquet than I did on my wedding dress. The flowers were in every picture, so I am so glad that I chose Shell's Petals!
GUEST




I wasn't sure of exactly what I wanted... I'm not a flower person. But with the ideas I had, Michelle was able to put together the perfect arrangements for me. Her knowledge and responsiveness to my suggestions was exceptional! She was very affordable for the product we received and went above and beyond my expectations the day of the wedding. I couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. She was extremely flexible with allowing me extended time to give her final numbers for our center pieces. Everything was perfect. Working with her was such a pleasure. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
GUEST




I have used Shells Petals for every event imaginable. They are creative, high quality of the product, and have great customer service. I would and will always recommend Shells Petals!
GUEST




Michelle was professional and helpful with every aspect of my day, ensuring that I didn't have to worry about the "little things" and could enjoy myself. From planning to execution I was blessed to have her. She took my floral visions and made them a reality. My wedding would not have been the same without her.
