“Working with Sarena of Sarena Floral Designs was truly one of the best parts of planning our wedding! We reviewed a lot of florists before finding Sarena, and I’m convinced she’s the best one out there! She’s talented, creative, thoughtful, and always on top of her game. Sarena is a great communicator, she really connected with me to understand my vision and learn what was important to me. We had several productive conversations where she listened to my thoughts on aesthetic, went over inspiration photos with me, and talked through design. Then she takes what she learns, applies her talent and imagination to improve it times 10, and comes back with something amazing. For our wedding, we asked Sarena if she could create small trees as centerpieces for some of our tables, and she returned with an ingenious plan that including welding stands for us to create beautiful, realistic, softly lit trees that stood 5 feet tall and were nothing short of magical. She is a true artist.
If you don’t know exactly what you want, or if you just want to suggest a couple flowers and let her do the rest, Sarena will have your back. As she did for me, she can lead the conversation and ask insightful questions (ex. “Is your dress plain or lace? I’m thinking about texture.”) to make sure the final aesthetic is perfect. No other florist we spoke with asked questions with such interest as she did, and I felt that she really got to know us and understand what “personality” of florals we were looking for. If something is important to you, it’s important to her. She will also suggest better and/or more cost-effective ways to do things, which I really appreciated.
Just as important as her vision and talent, Sarena showed us a lot of care and attention. She supported me and offered advice in other aspects of wedding planning as a friend would, which meant a lot to me. Sarena also took the time during her busy season to come to our walk-through and further visualize her trees and arrangements in the space. During the walk through, she helped keep us on track and volunteered to help with various tasks day-of. Our parents ended up loving her too. I wish I needed a florist more often, I’d choose Sarena every time!”
