Flowers by Shamay-Florist 4898 Sharpe Road, Anacortes, WA 98221

"If you ever have the opportunity to hire Shamay - DO IT. She is so talented! When I first started planning our wedding, I had a vague vision of what I wanted, and she listened intently and helped create an aesthetic that exceeded all my expectations. From big picture things like thinking through flow of events, to details like bud vases on the dessert table, Shamay had it covered. Plus, she worked to make the flowers as multi-purpose as possible, as our wedding events moved around to multiple locations throughout the day, helping us be efficient with our floral budget. It didn't hurt that she was also an absolute gem and was a delight to work with!"

"I knew I was very lucky when Shamay said she would be available for my wedding. She has a very impressive portfolio and I felt so fortunate to have her curate my wedding with her talent! I planned my wedding all the way from South America and knowing she understood my half-developed vision and could turn it into something so beautiful left one less thing to worry about on my wedding planning list! Shamay puts a lot of herself--her passion, her creativity--in her work, plus she's a beautiful person, inside and out. From abroad, she assured me it would all work out and on the day of, I was not disappointed! With all smiles, Shamay showed up with my beautiful bouquet, our centerpieces were amazing, and the wedding + reception was a blast!"

"I can't speak highly enough about Shamay and her work. My husband and I live in Southern California, but we got married at my parents house in Anacortes this summer. We told Shamay what we were envisioning, and she made all of our dreams come true and then some. I don't know a ton about types of flowers, so I sent her pictures of what I was thinking and I was in awe the day of my wedding that the flowers were beyond what I could have envisioned. She was so great to work with, and when we were unsure of what we wanted for certain things, we gave her free rein and she truly went above and beyond. She is the best! My husband and I are still floored when we look at our pictures and see the stunning flowers. Not to mention what an all around wonderful person Shamay is!"

"Oh my goodness!! Shamay made my dreams come true!! The flowers at my wedding were INCREDIBLE! My husband and I live in Minneapolis, MN and were recently married in Anacortes, WA. We planned our entire wedding from a far and Shamay was so incredible to work with. She is kind, flexible, and responsive. She went above and beyond for us! She helped with so many details and always offered her feedback and advice. She was always willing to talk about other elements of my wedding as well. I appreciated this so much being that I was so far away and not as familiar with the area. We had about 45 guests at our destination wedding and our flowers were something we were able to invest in. I'm so glad we did! The flowers truly transformed the ballroom and I felt I was living in a fairytale the day of my wedding! My bridal bouquet was gorgeous. The corsages and bouts were beautiful. She also made a beautiful design installation of rose petals at Washington Park for our ceremony. It was magical! Shamay is a true artist!! I'm so very lucky to have met her and to have had her be part of our wedding day."
