Bride & Blossom

This vendor is amazing. Always responsive which I need. Great taste. Always honest in how I should spend my money. I had a space that looked very much like a meeting room for my wedding but had nice views. With draping, they transformed the space and it was absolutely beautiful. I loved the beautiful tablescape we had with a long table, tapered candles on candelabras, mirror runner and white flowers in mercury vases. Rachel was always wonderful to deal with and I chose her after lots, I mean lots of research and was happy with my choice. Thank you. Oh wait, my bouquet was to die for also. I am preserving it and displaying hopefully.

Bride & Blossom did an amazing job bringing my vision to life AND under such an expedited timeline! After firing my other florist at the last minute due to an unfortunate situation, Bride & Blossom swooped in 2 weeks before my date and turned an unfortunate situation into something truly beautiful. Both Elianna and Rachel were an absolute pleasure to work with — I can’t stress that enough!!! I felt like I knew them for years after only one phone conversation. They were friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating and buttoned up about every detail. Every email was answered in a super timely fashion and they provided great recommendations for how to bring my look to life under budget and, again, under a crazy short timeline. The show room in NYC is beautiful and conveniently located too. The cherry on top is that they came in significantly less expensive than my previous vendor and ended up delivering MORE than I would have received with the other vendor. I’ve already highly recommended them to several other friends and family getting married in the near future. What a great company.

I did quite a bit of shopping for a florist for my wedding, and decided to go with Bride & Blossom. Not only are they super responsive & affordable, but the consultation meeting is extremely helpful. They are creative & have a screen so you can show them your pinterest photos. The centerpieces came out beautifully and complemented my rustic wedding theme.

Simply the best wedding florist in New York City!
Bride and Blossom is one of the few florists who specialize in weddings and they have the most expertise and reliability when it comes to wedding flowers.
Rachel and Elianna went above and beyond to deliver beautiful flowers for my wedding:
They first met with me in person and spent a lot of time after putting together initial proposal making sure they accommodate all of my multiple requests.
Before I picked Bride and Blossom I interviewed 4 different florists and I decided to go with Bride and Blossom as they were the most attentive, had great attitude, and seemed the most reliable.
Bride and Blossom itemize the total cost to account for every flower and they do have very reasonable prices per flower while many other florists have much higher mark ups especially when they hear wedding flowers.
I was very specific about the flowers I wanted and Rachel and Elianna delivered exactly what I wanted in a beautiful presentation: I received modern elegant flowers in multiple shades of purple. My bridal bouquet looked like a piece of jewelry.
The flowers not only looked gorgeous but filled the wedding reception room with a beautiful scent of roses and orchids.
All my guests were so happy to take my beautiful flowers home after the wedding so that none of the centerpieces were left. If you are a modern savy New York bride who knows what she wants for her wedding definitely pick Bride and Blossom for the best value and quality.

Rachel and her team at Bride & Blossom were absolutely wonderful. They were kind, helped me create my vision while still fitting into my budget, and were always communicative and completely professional. I never had to worry that I wouldn’t receive the flowers on time or that the quality would be poor. They delivered everything in a timely manner, set everything up, and everything looked beautiful. I was amazed at how my ceremony and reception looked, and I wish I could include pictures in this review!
These are truly caring individuals who take pride in what they do. Rachel is a gem. I would use her and her services again in a heartbeat for the next special occasion!

Like a lot of brides, my wedding was my everything. I wanted things to be as close to perfect as possible and floral design was a huge part of that perfection.
To make a long story short, I ended up letting my original contracted florist go about 5 wks before my wedding. It was an overwhelming decision but it had to be done for various reasons. I instantly went on the hunt and found Bride and Blossom.
A lot of florists wouldn’t be able to take on a new client so close to their wedding date, but Rachel jumped in without hesitation (which was so comforting). I can be honest and say I am persnickety with high-​end taste in flowers and Rachel welcomed that. I came to her with visuals and a budget and she 100% delivered. And remember, I enlisted a huge amount of trust in the team because I was not able to have a preview due to timing. In the end, everything was absolutely beautiful and exactly how I pictured it. I stood at my own wedding in awe of how breathtaking it was.
I highly recommend B&B! :) Thanks again Rachel!!!

I worked with Bride & Blossom for my April 2014 wedding and loved their work. The bouquets and centerpieces were exactly what I had imagined and were in perfect alignment with the vision I had presented to Rachel during our first meeting! They were beautiful and — compared to other florists — a fantastic value given the size of our wedding. We were able to maintain our flower budget and still have exactly what we wanted, a definite win-​win! Rachel and her team were very responsive and always willing to answer questions and re-​confirm those little details (where, when, how, etc) that brides start to worry about as the wedding date gets near. In addition, in the days leading up to our wedding, the postal service literally lost the check with our final payment. What could have been a very stressful situation was made quite easy with Rachel’s patience and willingness to help us figure out an alternative solution. I have nothing but good things to say about Bride & Blossom and would certainly recommend them!

Bride and Blossom are coming through for me on a VERY tight timeline. I’m probably lucky I’m getting married on a Sunday, because I needed a florist so quickly.
Rachel was incredibly responsive and informative. I was able to afford flowers I didn’t think were possible because her markups aren’t insane, like most florists! We just signed the contracts and I can’t wait to see what she comes up with!
I haven’t had the wedding yet, and will update this review next month after it happens, but I couldn’t imagine finding someone like her on such short notice!
She has been more helpful than I could have expected!

This listing is kind of old because they are located in Long Island City and changed their name to bride and blossom. We worked with Rachel for our recent wedding. Everything came out beautiful and was reasonably priced. Being a novice to choosing flowers, I was kind of surprised that most florists basically just ask you to send them images of bouquets that you like instead of suggesting arrangements or really helping to guide you. BFE did this as well, but I guess its pretty standard. However, once I did that, they were able to come up with a beautiful interpretation of what I was looking for. I was a bit nervous because I was looking for a more «natural/​organic» feel than is featured on their website but Rachel was able to figure out what we wanted. Our chuppa was made out of natural tree branches intertwined with flowers — gorgeous! Everything else –bouquets, boutineers, centerpieces came out very nice. The only draw back is that they charge you to see a centerpiece mock up with I thought should have been included. Overall, we were very happy with the service!

Meeting with Rachel and Dana was very informative. BFE really does a great job being transparent with all their projects, even down to listing the number of stems in each of their bouquets. They really aim to keep the price down and want the client to have a say in every aspect of the wedding flower project.
I’d say it’s most advantageous to you if you come with a good idea of what you want. While BFE has a three-​person design team (based in Long Island), it seemed like I needed to put in a bit of the work upfront. This goes along with their valuing the client’s needs down to every specific detail, but for someone like me, who’s really new to the «flower scene,» I wanted a little more guidance and more sparks of ideas from them about what would work in my venue, with my dress, etc.
Another way they keep their prices down is that the client pays for the vases, extra accessories, etc. They are upfront about this, as well. I guess this set up could be a hassle if you don’t want to have them in your posession, though BFE will pick up the supplies afterwards for you.
They work explicitly with weddings, which is a nice, focused touch.
