“Eva from Blossoming Bough did an INCREDIBLE job with floral design for our wedding. From our first phone call, I knew that she was going to nail it – I could sense her creativity and excitement over my ideas and aesthetic that I had in mind, which made me thrilled! I asked for wild, lush, natural, woodsy florals, greenery, and grasses that complemented the beauty of Vermont’s varied and dramatic landscape and fit into our color scheme – but left the rest up to Eva’s creative and stylistic vision. Also, the planning process with Eva was so much fun! Being local to Vermont, I had the pleasure of getting to know her as a person and seeing her process – she is truly devoted not only to her craft, but to ecologically sustainable business practices – which reaffirmed my decision to work with her. She grows a large portion of the flowers she uses, sustainably forages local greenery (in my case – she hunted down a bunch of local seed-heads to use for my wedding nearly a year ahead of time and stored them for me!!), and recycles nearly all components of her installations/rentals to cut down on unnecessary waste. Plus, she’s literally THE nicest person – which makes working with her a breeze!! I had many times during the year where I had full lists of questions where I asked for her opinion on things, and she was always eager and happy to lend her thoughts/suggestions, along with pictures/examples of things from her own garden. As I look over my wedding photos and videos, the first thing my eyes notice is her beautiful work –and as a testament to that point, I’ve had several of my wedding vendors tell me my bouquet was the most beautiful they have ever seen in their years in the business. (which says a lot for people who see them day in and out during the seasons!) I am so incredibly happy I found Blossoming Bough and cannot recommend or thank Eva enough!”
