Tenley Erin Young Floral & Event Design

Tenley was the best decision we made in vendors for our wedding — we used her for both florals and event design!
Our wedding was at a vineyard that was basically a blank slate that we could do anything with, and required us to bring in virtually everything ourselves. That in itself is very overwhelming, and on top of that, we live 2.5 hours away.
After hiring Tenley, all of the potential stress over this went away. She knew exactly what we would need in every aspect of design and rentals in general, and took our vision and brought it to life.
She was VERY easy to work with, completely «got» what we were hoping to do right away, and the outcome was even better than I had ever expected. She is so tastefully creative! Her florals were beautiful, she had great ideas for designing all of our different tables and spaces, and I really cant thank her enough for helping us put together the wedding of our dreams!
Thank you Tenley for going above and beyond!

Tenley seriously MADE my wedding. She was so incredible to work with, great personality, creative, fun. You feel like you’re working with a best friend. She not only crafted the most amazing florals, but she helped make our wedding unforgettable and more than I ever could have imagined! She helped with everything from vintage china, gold center pieces, candles, marquee letters, everything! Her florals — holy goodness. My bouquet was to DIE for. She honestly made our wedding just insane. I would recommend Tenley to anyone who wants an out of this world wedding!

There is not enough I can say about Tenley. Working with her was a dream come true. I hired her as my wedding florist, but very quickly she became the stylist for the entire wedding!
When I first contacted her, I didn’t have a very clear idea of what I wanted. I didn’t even know how to describe the color pallet! Tenley asked that I send her some pictures of things that I liked and we could go from there. After only a few emails back and forth, she sent over an inspiration board that blew my mind! It was exactly what I had hoped for!
What’s even better is that Tenley took those initial ideas and continued to improve them throughout the process. In the end she created the most gorgeous wedding I could have imagined (and all within my budget!)
In short, Tenley is a genius. Not to mention, she’s so freaking cool that you want her to be your friend in real life :) Please save yourself the trouble of looking anywhere else and hire Tenley! You will not be disappointed!!!

When you meet Tenley, you are immediately struck by her beauty, style, and smile. She is very enthusiastic and has an obvious passion for making weddings beautiful and unique and totally personal to each bride and groom. She gets you excited by how excited she is to «create» for your wedding.
We were referred Tenley by our coordinator, who happens to be one of her best friends and studio mates. We bid her against 3 other florists and her pricing was pretty consistent with the proposals form the other florists. She was no cheaper, nor any more expensive than other «referred vendors» (versus using a friend or someone just starting out/​off Craigslist), hence the average «Value» rating above.
The thing that set Tenley apart from all the others was her creative talent and ability to turn my vision into a non-​cookie cutter, creative MASTERPIECE! I had this kookoo idea of using cotton bolls, real peaches, and desert succulents in my décor… along with navy blues and tans as part of the color scheme. Tenley is a GENIUS and nailed the concept perfectly without deviating from my vision and without imposing her design and overriding what I was trying to accomplish. My arrangements were so beautiful and elegant (even with raw cotton!). She made them soft without being too rustic, and made them big and bountiful without being too opulent. She was able to blend all the concepts perfectly and it looked so beautiful and so appropriate for a country club wedding.
Tenley was very flexible in so many ways. First, she met us halfway on our budget, and worked 1 on 1 with me to help me create my own potted succulent favors and seating numbers as a way to save money. When one member of the wedding party tragically couldn’t make it last minute, she re-​purposed all the extra flowers at the last minute. And she never shorted me when I needed her advice on design elements that I was DIY’ing.
If I had it to do over, I would definitely work with Tenley again.
