Bloom floral & event design

Laurel was one of my favorite vendors, hands down. Initially I was a little put-off due to the wait to meet with her, but that's because I didn't understand her scheduling or the demand for her services. The minute I met her I knew we were with the right person and she was well worth the wait.She is full of fresh, creative ideas and knew exactly how to accent the flowers I selected. I wanted everything to be in shades of white/cream with my odd request of blue thistle. She made it look far more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. The best thing I did was take Laurel's advice on decor. She looked at our venue and suggested a patterned table runner I wouldn't have thought to use otherwise. It really tied things together. The first thing I said when I saw a few post wedding pictures was, "Wow, our flowers were great and she really nailed it with those runners!"I would recommend Laurel to anyone. She really is a joy!

Laurel of Bloom Floral Event and Design was absolutely fantastic from start to finish! I knew very little about flowers going into our first consultation meeting for our wedding and her laid back attitude and expertise made the whole process very easy and fun. The flowers turned out beautiful! On the big day, Laurel provided not only our gorgeous flowers, but also stayed with me right up until the moment I walked down the aisle. I highly recommend her for your wedding or any other event you are in need of amazing floral designs. :)

Laurel was absolutely wonderful to work with. I was a bride that simply knew I wanted a rich, rustic feel to my flowers and my fiancé wanted "red.". From only those two descriptions, Laurel created centerpieces, bouquets, boutonnières that were all more than I could imagine. Laurel invited me into her home to share the entire process of creating centerpieces and walked through every flower that I picked out! Unlike other florists, or "bigger" chains, Laurel allowed me to pick out each and every flower and gave advice along the way (especially when it came to picking out flowers that gave us more bang for our buck!!). She was extremely flexible, and really made sure we got our money worth!! One thing that really stands out about working with Laurel was her honesty to "undersell" us on a lot of aspects (i.e., flower girl bouquets, ring bearer boutonnieres, and pew flowers (because our church was quite large!) You will not find a more personal and trustworthy florist; we were lucky to work with great vendors that we trusted would do their best work all in honor of our big event and Laurel did just that!! She arrived early to our ceremony to pin on boutonnières (you will appreciate this once you realize how hard that really is to do!!), stayed until I walked down the aisle to make sure everything looked okay, and set up our reception site with some of the most beautiful centerpieces, and came back to collect all the vases, etc. the following day.

Laurel was a fantastic florists throughout the wedding planning process, and especially on the big day. She is creative, uses local flowers when available, and will help in anyway she can. Our wedding flowers were absolutely beautiful and I thank her for being a calm presence on our big day! I would highly recommend Laurel.

Laurel did a wonderful job for my daughter's wedding and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Awesome person to work with! My flowers and centerpieces were absolutely beautiful!

Bloom Floral & Event Design is the ONLY florist I would recommend in the Milwaukee area!! When it comes to flowers, they're all pretty...but when it comes to Florists, Laurel stands out. She's more than a florist, she's an artist. She captured my "wedding style" better than anyone else I met with, and created breathtaking bouquets and centerpieces. My wedding guests were admiring the flower arrangements the instant they walked in the door, and one of my guests booked her a few days later for her own wedding! I know many brides feel like they can't afford "quality", so they settle for less. I was one of them. But as a self-employed graduate student, I was pleased with how enthusiastically and comfortably Laurel worked within my budget.

Laurel Flannery is not only very professional, but also very competitively priced for the services provided :) I would say we actually received more in service and product than what we were actually charged for! If there were any questions, she would have a response back within a few hours. If adjustments needed to be made, she was very accomodating! She is 120% on top of her game and has great artistic ideas for her products and can provide different options that might not have been thought of previously. She can also recommend a great floral idea for people on a budget. I would highly recommend Laurel and her business, Bloom!

Laurel was extremely professional and creative. I received numerous compliments on the beautiful centerpieces at the reception and the bouquets for the cerremony. One of the best perks of her service was the ability to use her vases and table runners for the wedding. It was a cost savings that I truely appreciate. Thanks for making my wedding dreams come true.Carolynn & Tim

I was married Aug. 7th and Laurel did all the bouquets and family/wedding party boutineers. I am a picky person for sure, but Laurel's work really impressed me. It was exactly what I wanted and right within my budget. I was 110% plus satisfied with Bloom/Laurel and would strongly urge anyone who needs a high quality, honest, reliable florist to not look any further and book Laurel! It can be really challenging to find a florist that you can trust to not rip you off, listen to you and do what you want (...not try to just sell you more) and work to accomplish what you want within your budget. I still stare starry eyed at pictures of my bridal bouquette! Perfect, lovely, beautiful!!!!

Laurel was amazing to work with from start to finish. I planned my wedding from California so I was never able to meet with her until I got my flowers, but there was no need. She asked all the right questions to get me the perfect flowers at the perfect price! I would recommend her to anyone who wants beautiful flowers for their special day!

Laurel was SO easy to work with. From the ease of consultation that did not feel rushed to making flower designs just for us. She had great ideas and was able to bring the venue together for us. She believes in using flowers from the local area which I totally love. I have recommended her to many friends and they have also loved working with her. I would recommend her to anyone who wants unique, beautiful flowers for their wedding.

Laurel was absolutely amazing! I had an idea of how I wanted my flowers to feel but had no specific flowers or colors in mind. Laurel did a great job feeling us out and talking with us and she came up with absolutely gorgeous centerpieces and bouquets. My husband and I collected vintage planters to be used and Laurel made each one different while still maintaining a gorgeous cohesiveness. It was definitely important to me to use local and in season items and that is what Laurel specializes in so that is really great too for "green" brides. We were also blown away with the quality of our arrangements considering Laurel's low pricing! You can't go wrong with laurel : )

Absolutely AMAZING! Laurel really understood our vision and style. She incorporated everything we asked for and more! When our wedding day came, the arrangements were absolutely perfect. She even waited with me right before I walked down the aisle so I wouldn't have to stand there by myself! She truly went above and beyond our expectations.

I was very pleased with Bloom. Laurel was awesome to work with. She was very flexible, affordable, and willing to help. She has creative ideas and very helpful in the planning process. On the day of the wedding she was reliable, flexible, and helpful. I was totally satisfied and would recommend her to anyone!~Rebecca

Laurel was absolutely amazing to work with! She provided so many creative ideas and helped make our budget work for us. She was also extremely helpful the day of the wedding, and even fluffed my train before I walked down the aisle. She responded to my e-mails within 24 hours (and often within 1 hour) and always put me at ease. I've already recommended her to others!!

Laurel was wonderful to work with. Our flowers were beautiful and she is so reasonable priced. She can work with your budget whatever it may be and come out with a beautiful result! we would definitely recommend her.

She was very helpful. She had many great ideas when I was unsure of what I wanted but also listened to me when I knew what I wanted. Everything was beautiful!

I would definitely recommend Bloom Floral & Event Design. Laurel was very helpful and provided guidance through the process of picking flowers as well as centerpieces. Our bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages and centerpieces were exactly what I wanted. Everything was beautiful!

Beautiful flowers. Wonderful service!
