WEDDINGS
Dear Kim,
There is no way I can
completely express how grateful we are for the wonderful job you did on our
flowers. I was completely floored when I saw the bouquet on my wedding day. My
husband called me on his way home from picking up the flowers and just gushed
about how beautiful they were. And just to give you an idea, whenever I’m
gardening or anything to do with flowers are involved and need his help….. this
guy is running for cover and groaning cause he hates that kind of stuff! The
fact that even he was amazed really shows what a fantastic job you did. You took
care of every last detail….. the centerpiece the bridesmaid bouquets and the
boutonnieres they were all PERFECT. We appreciate the extras touches you threw
in, it just shows how much you absolutely love your job!
If only we could get
married (to each other) again just to have the pleasure of doing business with
you we would 1,000 times over! You and your family (and your doggy) are the
sweetest!
Thank you thank you
thank you!!!!
Happily,
Carl and Sheena Dennison
Hi Kim,
I wanted to say thank you for everything. The flowers were absolutely beautiful
along with the bracelet that you left. I wore it for the church. I had a card
for you for that day but got caught up at the hair salon a lot longer than
expected. I am going to mail it out to you. Thanks again for everything it was
wonderful:)
Eileen
I just wanted to say how happy we
were with the flowers! The bouquets & boutonnieres were amazing. When we got to
the Garden Chalet, I almost fell over when I saw how incredible the centerpieces
looked. Then I noticed you sprinkled Bells of Ireland on each table!!! Oh my
gosh!! It was gorgeous! If you ever need a testimonial to your GREAT WORK and
PERSONAL SERVICE please do not hesitate to contact me!!!
Toni
My husband and I just
experienced An English Garden's touches to our outdoor wedding earlier this
month. Besides a great selection of arrangements and flowers to choose from, and
being able to create your own unique style along with the owner Kim, our whole
wedding flower experience was delightful. Usually flowers are one of the many
things brides worry about most--but An English Garden made our choices, and
worries, extremely carefree!! Personable, knowledgeable, and just simply great
people to work with. EXCELLENT QUALITY AND SERVICE!!
Our Wedding Day
turned out to be a balmy 95 degrees - ceremony and reception outdoors - and the
flowers were still going strong FIVE DAYS LATER!!!
Absolutely
wonderful!!!
Jim & Lisa
I just wanted to say

Thank you for your
kindness and attention to detail. I felt like I was doing business with a
friend. You and your staff are wonderful and would recommend your company to
anyone needing any type of flowers for any occasion!

Thank you for your beautiful work. I'll always receive compliments on your work.
I have even heard from brides, whom I have sent to you, telling me they went
with the advice of family or friends only to be disappointed on their big day.
They wish they had listened to me. They end up in tears & there is nothing to be
done on the day the wedding is taking place. I always tell people to listen to their instincts or at least another bride.
Kim,

Dear Kim,
I just wanted to say thank you for the beautiful work you did on the flowers. I
can't tell you how happy I was when I walked into the reception room and saw how
romantic and pretty everything looked. The flowers were the perfect color (I'm
so glad I went with a light pink), and had bloomed just the right amount. They
looked fantastic up against the black dresses, and the cake looked so pretty. As
soon as the photographer posts pictures online, I will send you a link to view
them. I think there will be some great reception photos for you to show to
future brides.
Thanks again for everything.

Hi Kim!
The flowers were soooo beautiful! Thank you so much for everything you did...I
just loved them. It was perfect.
I was wondering if you knew of anything I could do with my bouquet. The flowers
still look amazing...we have them in the vase of water. If you could do
something, I could bring the bouquet out to you. I'm not sure if you can press
them or dry them, or do something creative.
Anyways, thanks again, so much, for everything. Have a great New Year!
