Fleurs Divine

"FAKE FLOWERS, REAL REVIEW!!! I hate to do this, but I would never recommend Fleurs Divine. I hate long reviews but I feel like I need to share my experience in hopes it helps other brides. I was SHOCKED to discover that there were FAKE flowers in my bouquet! I gave Monika the benefit of the doubt even though many brides who used her at DCI had warned us about her. I was constantly reaching out to get answers and updates. In our initial meeting I shared photos and examples of what I wanted and followed up with a detailed email since she did not provide me with an invoice. I paid cash deposit the day we met and the receipt was a ripped piece of paper. Yes, that’s right. Not a form, receipt or contract - just a plain white piece of paper. I’m a project manager by trade and am very detail oriented so I made sure to reiterate my order in email to ensure it was documented. I had to follow up a few times in order to get an invoice (which essentially was the order listed in an email - no forms or docs). When we first met, we were unsure of what decor we wanted for the ceremony but was told we had a while to decide since we booked a year in advance. Once we decided, I followed up a few months after specifically asking for a floral arch with flowers up top on both sides (top portion only) because I didn’t see the point of having flowers on the lower half of the arch since they’re usually covered by the bride or bridal party who are standing right in front of it. I emailed an example of an arch that Monika had recently created as inspiration and made sure to call out the placement of the florals. I had to follow up multiple times to get confirmation of receipt of the email and what the new quote would be. Day of, I was upset to see that the flowers were not placed like I requested. I pointed it out to someone on her team and they were aloof. I decided to let it go because I didn’t want to let it ruin my day. I also shared an image of what I had envisioned for the cake and centerpieces and was so shocked with what appeared day of. Again, I let it go because it was too late to do anything about it and didn’t want to let it ruin my day. But the flowers were nothing like the image of the cake and were a different color from my whole color scheme. Our colors for floral were white flowers and greenery & eucalyptus. The flowers on the cake had peach tones in them which I hated and no eucalyptus to be found in the centerpiece. The last straw for me, was when I discovered the fake flowers in my bouquet!!! It was extremely heartbreaking! I completely understand the pandemic has affected many things - supply chain, shortages and many parts of businesses. But what I don’t expect is the pandemic to affect customer service. I saw Monika a few days prior to the wedding to drop off decor for the center pieces and she never mentioned anything to me. This bad review could have been avoided if she communicated with me that the flowers I specifically requested were not available. If she was honest and presented me with options, I would’ve been happy to select another flower or even maybe approve the fake flower. The lack of professionalism and communication left a very sour taste in my mouth."

"Working with Monika was the easiest part of our wedding. She provided great service and quality floral arrangements. I would recommend anyone to seek out her services."

"I highly recommend this wedding florist! All I did was give her a general idea of my desired color scheme and aesthetic, and she completely brought my vision to life with her creative use of seasonal flowers. Not only was her work absolutely stunning, but the prices were also very reasonable. For around $3,000, I received a beautiful bridal bouquet, three bridesmaid bouquets, florals for the arch, 15 garlands, and a few boutonnieres and corsages. I was absolutely thrilled with the final result and couldn't have asked for a better florist to help bring my wedding day dreams to fruition. Thank you for your amazing work!"

"Monika was an absolute pleasure to work with & her flowers are gorgeous! I came to Monika with a vision (that changed a few times throughout the process) and she took that vision and created beauty with it! Other florists that I met with wanted to meet once, give a price & be finished with you & wouldn’t care if your wedding was a year away and your vision changed closer to your big day. Monika was different - she truly wanted me to be happy on my wedding day & was extremely kind and accommodating each session. Monika is also affordable for the beautiful work she provides & was able to explain her prices for the bouquets instead of just saying it is a wedding, flowers are expensive, these are the prices. My mom really liked that about her & we both felt so comfortable talking to Monika and listening to her opinions and suggestions! My bouquet and the girl’s bouquets were absolutely gorgeous. My bouquet was so big, beautiful and traditional like I had asked for - very happy when looking back at pictures. I was very indecisive when it came to the girl’s bouquets - I didn’t want just one color against their dresses but a perfect mixture of blushes and plums that would blend well against their deep plum gowns. Monika definitely delivered and went above and beyond to create a beautiful look! The church flowers were stunning (both at the front and along the aisle), everyone loved their boutonnieres, & the moms were obsessed with the flowers on their wrist. My grandma told me when I got back from my honeymoon she loved her wrist flower so much that she was going to preserve it - it was currently in her fridge & this made me so happy! For the venue I did both tall and short flowers and they both looked beautiful in the ballroom. Monika used the colors from the girl’s bouquets to create the centerpieces and they blended so nicely with the ballroom decor. I got many compliments on how beautiful the flowers were as well as the gold centerpieces that were used for the tall arrangements. The centerpieces that Monika used were elegant looking and gave the tables such a beautiful look. I can’t say enough good things about Monika - would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for gorgeous flower arrangements for your wedding day – she truly cares about your vision and executes beautiful work!!!"

"I recently worked with Monika for my wedding at David's Country Inn and let me tell you, my wedding was a dream come true. My flowers were absolutely amazing and Monika was there every step of the way! With the general stress of planning a wedding, Monika was able to take away the stress of picking flowers. She listened to exactly what I wanted and was always available for me to reach out to. She turned my vision into reality and I received SO many compliments on my flowers and center pieces. If I had to plan my wedding 100 times more I'd pick Fluers Divine every single time. Whether you want minimalistic, over the top, or something in between, she's the best!"
