Before booking a florist, we looked around quite a bit. We ended up at Verbena Designs. Jennifer and her staff were wonderful to work with. When we needed to make changes due to budget, it was never a problem. She was such a sweatheart and made me a corsage for my bridal shower. My ceremony decorations as well as my centerpiecs and bouquets were all gorgeous!

I LOVED LOVED LOVED Jennifer and the job she did for my wedding. I had a Pakistani wedding but was looking for a not too traditional look. Jennifer had experience with South Asian weddings and was able to find the right balance between invoking my culture while keep the look and feel modern. She is EXTREMELY nice which was super important for me. She was always smiling and willing to take my ideas, work with them, and ultimately materialize them into what I had pictured. I had brought tons of fabric and decorations from Pakistan and dropped them off at her studio a few days before the wedding. She took the objects and brought them to life in the way she set everything up. The reception hall on the day of the wedding looked so spectacular that my bridal attendant (who works for the catering hall) walked in to the room and said "woah, I've never seen this room look so good!" I would highly recommend Jennifer for not only her talent and vision but also her personality.

Planning: Jen was awesome. She gave me input when I needed it but she was never pushy. She knew I was on a tight budget and she never made me feel like she was trying to sell me something or not treat me well since I wasn�t spending thousands of dollars. Our centerpieces were very simple, which is what I wanted. It really kept the cost down. She totally understood where I wanted our wedding to go and she got us there within our budget. She even did the labor of putting up the lanterns and setting up for the ceremony. The only reason Verbena received a 4.5 out of 5 on responsiveness was because I often emailed and it took a long time to get a response. However, if I called to let them know I emailed- I received a response much more quickly. Day of: When our flowers arrived I was blown away. I couldn�t believe how stunning they were. I just kept staring at them. I sent our photographer over to them right away because of how amazing they were. I couldn�t believe how many flowers we got in our bouquets. They were beyond stunning. They were my favorite part of the wedding. Jen made me feel like I was one of her friends. Seeing her the day of my wedding was so comforting because I could tell she truly wanted us to be happy and that she put so much care into everything she did for us. I plan on sending her as many pictures of the flowers as possible because she deserves to be able to show people the fabulous work she does. Another local bride saw my pictures and knew I had gotten my flowers from Verbena just based on their beauty and style. I highly recommend Jen to any future bride.

We loved using Verbena so much that we recommend them to all of our friends looking for a florist. Jennifer really took the time out to make sure that everything turned out exactly as I wanted it. Even when I changed my colors and flowers three times, she accommodated me promptly and with a smile on her face.

Really I could not have been more pleased with my flowers and Jennifer's service. She does beautiful work, almost as if she's reading your mind, and she is super easy to work with. She even threw in two items, wreaths for the church doors, for FREE as a surprise that I had cut from my list due to budget restrictions. I love Verbena!!

AMAZINGJennifer (the owner) did an absolutely stunning job on our arch and personal flowers. She was nothing but helpful the entire time, and the flowers were gorgeous. Everyone commented on them, and my bouquet was awesome! She was so sweet and a pleasure to work with. There's no doubt in my mind that we went with the right person. AND she's very reasonably priced, AND they only do one wedding a day.

Jenn and Verbena was one of the vendors I was most excited about after seeing her work at the shop and at a friend's wedding. My bouquet and the bridesmaid bouquest were gorgeous and guests raved about them. My centerpieces were pretty and added a nice Fall touch to the wedding. Jenn and her staff were very accommodating.
