Sayles Livingston Design

"As an interracial couple planning our special day, we were hopeful that Sayles Livingston Design would bring our wedding vision to life with beautiful floral arrangements. Unfortunately, our experience with this florist fell far short of our expectations. From the outset, communication with Sayles Livingston Design proved to be a challenge. While a college friend who recommended them had a positive experience, our in-person meeting, which required us to travel out of state, was uncomfortable and unproductive. This should have been our first indication that we were not a priority despite our excitement to work with Sayles. One of the most disappointing aspects of our collaboration with Sayles Livingston Design was the lack of consistency between what was promised initially and the final price. While we acknowledge making upgrades, the discrepancy was significant, even after cutting several items from the original plan. This financial ambiguity added unnecessary stress to the planning process. On the day of the wedding, the absence of the head florist was particularly noticeable. Their expertise and attention to detail were sorely missed, resulting in multiple oversights. Most notably, my bridal bouquet lacked the promised orchids, and there were insufficient florals for the mothers of the bride and groom, an oversight that did not go unnoticed. While the flowers we did receive were undeniably beautiful, the overall execution left much to be desired. Tables that were meant to be more green-heavy were disappointingly sparse, requiring my wedding planner and her team to divert their attention from other crucial tasks to rectify the situation. We did not feel the finished product was representative of sizable investment made. In conclusion, despite the aesthetic appeal of the flowers, the numerous issues we encountered with Sayles Livingston Design make it difficult for us to recommend their services. The lack of communication, organizational challenges, and missed details significantly impacted our wedding experience. Couples seeking a reliable and attentive florist might want to explore other options to ensure a smoother and more enjoyable planning process."

"Sayles Livingston was truly TOP NOTCH! From the moment we first started our wedding planning , Tracey was able to pick up on our vision for the big day and her expertise and creativity was invaluable throughout the entire process. She was such a pleasure to work with and would go the extra mile to make sure everything was PERFECT! Kathryn and the operations team did a fantastic job at executing the details and it was nothing short of perfection. I already have friends who attended our wedding that are using Sayles for their upcoming weddings as they were so impressed with the work they did. I cannot recommend them enough!!!"
