Pamela and her team were amazing and I received so many compliments on the centerpieces and the lanterns in the tent. She worked within my budget and really listened to what I was looking for (no other florist I met with suggested a meeting down in the flower district so I can see/touch all the flowers for myself). The arrangements and the decor were truly beautiful and she really thought of everything. The flower arch that we used for the ceremony was such a great touch and addition and her addition of rosemary and lavendar really added to the ambiance of the venue. I can't say enough nice things about her!

I couldn't have been happier with my wedding flowers! The bouquets, personal flowers, center pieces and room decorations were more beautiful than expected. I felt that it was a great combination of my preferences and Pamela's vision honed through years of experience. I secured The Flower Girls seven months before my wedding. During the months of planning I emailed images of flowers to Pamela and she would let me know if they would be in season in August. If they were not, she would give me suggestions of what would be similar. Two months before the wedding we met at the site and brain stormed. A month before the wedding we went to the flower market and I picked out my vases and flowers. I felt totally secure throughout the process that the flowers on my wedding day would be the most unique and beautiful of any florist.

Pamela and her team are fabulous! We had a theme in mind (Art Deco) and Pamela was completely on board for working with our theme. She is a pleasure to work with and was always responsive to emails etc. The final result was absolutely breath-taking!! Many people commented on how beautiful the flowers were. We couldn't have been more pleased! She absolutely made our day very special!!

Pamela Cravens, from The Flower Girls was nothing but professional, not to mention, extremely knowledgeable about every flower in the flower district, which was where we met for our first meeting. She walked us through multiple shops, pointing out different flowers and suggestions for combinations that might work for our theme and other colors in our wedding. This was challenging because the date was fairly close and I still hadn't had my bridesmaids dresses picked out yet and therefore was not yet sure what color they would be. Throughout it all, Pamela kept an open mind and worked with me as I updated her with the color scheme of the wedding as it was developing. On our wedding day, she was already there, setting up when we arrived and with everything else going on then and to keep track of, it was great that I could just let her do her thing and not have to worry about anything! I would highly recommend her!

Pamela from The Flower Girls was absolutely incredible to work with from the first time I contacted her. When we first met in the flower district we got to discuss the flowers and vases that I liked there. She accepted as many pictures that I could find as inspirations as well. Everything she made was absolutely beautiful: the bridal bouquet, maid of honor bouquet, 2 mother's corsages, 5 boutonnieres, 2 flower girl baskets, 2 flower pedestals in front of the church, runner with petals, 2 baskets of petals for throwing after the ceremony, 10 small flowers bubbles for the cocktail tables, and gorgeous centerpieces for the reception with flowers also around the cake. Not only were all the flowers beautiful but the attention to all the other details was incredible. The wrapping and jewelry added to the bouquets, the jeweled wristlets for the corsages, the beautifully ribbon wrapped flower girls baskets, the gorgeously decorated baskets for the flower petals to be thrown after the ceremony, the beautiful bubbles in the cocktail hour and then the gorgeous silver holders for our reception centerpieces - Classy and Elegant are an understatement when it comes to Pamela's work. Pamela is kind and really listens, she works with your budget, she is wonderfully creative, and she really executes exactly what you want, which in my opinion, makes her the best in the industry!

I was thrilled with the Flower Girls. They went above and beyond my expectations. Communication, before and after the event was great, which can be the most important thing when you're trying to take care of all the wedding details. The flowers, themselves, were gorgeous, fresh and beautifully arranged, bouquets, table centerpieces and other areas such as rosebuds on the place card table. I could not have been happier with the Flower Girls.

What can I say, the flowers by Pamela Cravens and her Flower Girls team were so stunning, guests didn't even wait till the very end of the wedding to snatch them up! I had a very difficult blue palette and Pamela made this happen for me. She personally took me to the flower markets so there would be no confusion about what I wanted. The bouquets she made for myself and my bridal party were just wonderful. And my bouquet had beautiful beaded details on the wrap that I wasn't even expecting. She was prompt, the flowers were wonderfully fresh and vivid and frankly the price was fantastically in my budget (and I had a small budget!) I am only taking away half a star because she does not accept credit cards, I prefer to charge whenever I can. But really in a perfect world I would ignore that.

Pamela was great to work with. I gave her a theme I wanted for the wedding during our initial meeting and she provided some additional ideas that just added to the beauty of it all. She was flexible and accommodating as I had to change my table shapes at the last minute and asked to add some violet to the bridesmaids bouquets. She accomodated these changes without a problem. When I arrived to my venue to see how everything was going Pamela and her team were there to greet me amd show me all their work. Everything from my centerpieces to my bouquet to my place card arrangement & work in and around the venue was gorgeous. I would recommend her highly and would even advise to give her creative license to put together the arrangements as she sees fit. There's so much to worry about when you're planning a wedding. If you hire a professional like Pam and let her do her thing you will not need to worry about your flowers. I'm so glad I hired her!

Pamela was a delight to work with and her flowers were beautiful. She understood what we wanted and really delivered. One of the things that really meant alot to me and surprised me was that she brought all of the beautiful flowers to the venue and arrranged them there; there weren't any arrangements that were done before the party. Everything was fresh and beautiful and she was so efficient. No mistakes. Perfect!

We couldn't have been happier with Pamela and her team. Prior to the wedding she was helpful, professional and attentive to all of our needs. One of my favorite memories the day of our wedding, was arriving at the space and seeing all of the work that Pamela had already done. It was the moment I realized that this was all finally happening! Her team was sweet and pleasant to work with too! We got so many compliments about the flowers and the chuppah. We highly recommend Pamela Cravens and The Flower Girls for your event!

Talk about a dream come true. Pamela at the Flower Girls exceeded all my expectations. She and I connected at our first meeting, and she was able to visualize exactly what I wanted. Her artistic sense coupled with her eagerness to please is a calming force to any bride. I knew that I could trust her. She took what little guidance I provided her and made a masterpiece. She would send me pictures and take me to the flower market to get a sense of the flowers she was thinking about. For someone who knows nothing about flowers, I knew I was in the best hands. The flowers and arrangements made the room light up. For anyone who is selecting vendors, Pamela is one of the best that I have ever worked with. I just recently looked at pictures of my bouquet and can't help but say "she did well." For those brides out there, Pamela is a superstar florist. You will be thrilled you have chosen her!

I cannot speak highly enough about Pamela Cravens and The Flower Girls and the artistry that went into the flowers that they designed for my wedding. I was very selective when it came to choosing a florist, and spent a lot of time researching my options. As it turned out, every piece was a work of art, from the bouquets to the boutonnieres to the bracelet corsage for my Grandmother. They surpassed my expectations and looked gorgeous in the photos. Pamela can create for you something much more unique and beautiful than the ubiquitous red roses that everyone gets.

Pamela and the Flower Girls transformed my venue into a romantic and dreamy wedding! We were stuck with two rooms with very different styles that had to be combined to accommodate my guests (one was a glass house garden theme and the other was like a ski chalet!). Pamela listened to my ideas and concerns, and came up with several designs. We tweaked the designs at the sample viewing, and they came out amazing on the day! I also had a chuppah that needed to be carried during the ceremony. THANK GOD Pamela stayed during the "practice run" an hour before the wedding because the groomsmen broke it!!! She fixed it on the spot, and taught the groomsmen how to carry it properly. She is extremely thoughtful and even helped me pack up after the wedding (for a very reasonable fee). She is also very conscious of my budget and did everything she could to keep it within my cost constraints. Thank you Pamela, everyone is still raving about your great work!

My husband and I were very happy with the floral arrangements that Pamela and her team at The Flower Girls created. Pamela listened to how we wanted the look and feel of our wedding to be and she executed it perfectly. She created such a unique and beautiful atmosphere and we couldn't have been happier!

I was extremely happy with Pamela and Flower Girls. She met with me and provided excellent ideas and suggestions for my wedding. The day of the event was spectacular. The flowers were magnificant and the arrangements flawless. I received so many compliments on both. In addition, her staff was very responsive and it was seamless the day of the wedding. I highly recommend Flower Girls.

Flowers are particularly important to me, so Pamela Cravens, with The Flower Girls, was one of the first vendors we booked. We met at our venue one Saturday afternoon and as she described her plan to merge my vision with the space and the season, I felt my blood pressure decrease. She got it. On our wedding day, many of my guests told me they had never seen such beautiful flowers. Pamela is truly a gem.

Pam Cravens is extremely creative, patient, punctual, and prepared. She listened to us and created a beautiful backdrop for my daughter's wedding day. She rates 5 Stars in all categories. I would definitely recommend her services without any hesitation -- and can't wait to have another party so I can use her again.

I did my wedding flowers with Pamela at The Flower Girls. She did a fantastic job for me. My wedding theme color was pink/ivory, and she decorated the reception place using combination of pink and ivory orchids, transforming the place into a very beautiful, scenic place. Everyone loved it!

It is with deepest and utmost thanks that I write this review of The Flower Girls. I could not have been more thrilled to work with such a professional, attentive and creative floral designer. The flowers at our wedding were elegant and simple and our guests continue to rave about them. Pamela did an excellent job, given that we only gave her less than 6 months time! The flowers were incredible and reflected our tastes so well. After working with Pamela I will never look at wedding arrangements the same - she made me realize how important flowers are!
