The flowers provided by Southern Stems exceeded all of my expectations. I was a bit nervous because I did not see a sample of the centerpieces or the bouquets prior to my wedding day. However, Leslie's use of color and her vision was far greater than anything I could have imagined. She was able to take my favorite flowers, as well as pictures of centerpieces and bouquets to create beautiful works of art. My floral arrangements were definitely one of my favorite parts of my wedding decor.

Southern Stems had the best value for the under $1k budget that we had for our wedding. I simply explained my budget and Leslie developed several options after discussing my wants. The flowers looked very nice for our bridal party and reception centerpieces. The only thing that we did not get was our complimentary toss bouquet, so be sure to remind her a few days before your event if this is important. We used a bridesmaid bouquet instead.

The majority of the coordination and communication with this vendor was via email because I was planning my wedding from out of state. However, they were very easy to get in contact with and replied to every concern/email. I was able to meet with the florist one time when I was in town. I provided the florist with swatches that I purchased of the exact colors of my wedding & pictures of exactly what I wanted at the wedding. I was very specific about the colors I wanted for each specific bouquet, boutonniere, centerpiece, etc. The corsages, bouquets, and boutonnieres were exactly as discussed. They were GORGEOUS! However, the large centerpieces during the reception were none of the colors that I asked for. NOT EVEN CLOSE! Additionally, the floating tealight centerpieces that I requested did not resemble the pictures either. I contacted this florist after my wedding & I was informed that "florist get as close as they can". However, that was never discussed in the email when I requested specific colors and types of centerpieces. Basically, easy to do business with but the quality of the work is mediocre for the price paid!

Leslie was wonderful! This is another vendor that worked with me on a short time frame. I booked her less than 2 months from the wedding. All communication and transactions were via email and phone. Leslie was extremely responsive and professional. She delivered great work and was affordable for me compared to all the other florist I met with-even when compared to having someone do silk flowers. I was pleasantly surprised and extremely pleased at what she did. I would recommend her to any bride.

Leslie did such a great job with our flowers! She was incredibly helpful all throughout the planning process, very flexible with any changes we wanted to make, and was always understanding with all of our requests. On the day of the wedding, I recieved so many compliments on the beauty of our flowers and I still look at my pictures and am amazed at how beautiful they truly were! Her prices were very competitive too, which definitely helped this bride on a budget. I would gladly recommend her to anyone!

I really like Leslie a lot. She is very professional, sweet and very easy to work with. She helped me decide on what's best for certain arrangements and answer questions very quickly and professionally! Working with a florist from across the country was not easy and Leslie made it easy....I had Leslie arranged my bouquet and my BMs bouquets and I ordered loose flowers from her for my reception (because I arranged them the day before my wedding). The only issue I had was my bouquet. I ordered a certain amount of flowers and expected my bouquet to be big, well at least way bigger than my bridesmaids bouquets. It was similar in size and I was a little disappointed. I contacted Leslie after the wedding to inquire what happened to all the missing flowers that I paid for and she explained that some of the flowers that came in was not in good shape, so she worked with what she had, "When making bouquets, sometimes you get to a point where if you add more flowers, it creates another layer which in turn requires even more flowers to finish the layer off." I understand this but I was missing a lot of the flowers I paid for.....An offer for refund would have made me feel a little better. Not to mention I had a TON of those same flowers in the loose flower orders for my reception that she brought to me. That could have easily been added in for me...It seems pity but I did pay a lot of money for a bouquet and not to get everything I paid for was kind of a disappointment in that respect...

Leslie did an AMAZING job on my flowers. During the planning process she was able to help me decide which direction to go. I had a lot of ideas and Leslie made my vision come true. The flowers were such a focal point to me and they made the venue beautiful. Her designs were perfect on my wedding day and the flowers themselves were so fresh. Her prices were definitely reasonable for the work that she produced. She also sent me a reminder e-mail before the payment was due, which was helpful close to the wedding when you have a million payments due and it's hard to keep track.

Leslie was wonderful to work with. I was an out of town bride and she was able to meet me when I was in town. Our wedding was in the fall and I wanted fall colors and various flowers. She was able to create arrangements that meet all expectations and worked with our budget. I highly recommend Leslie and her company Southern Stems!

I thoroughly enjoy working with Southern Stems for weddings. Her floral creations are fresh, contemporary and simply gorgeous.
I just LOVE working with Southern Stems- having worked with all types of florist, a floral designer is just so great in the attention to detail and 'out of the box' thinking. Leslie creates the most amazing displays- she is so creative and talented- HIGHLY recommend her for any size job!!!
