My husband and I could not have asked for a more suitable floral designer than Maryann, whose professionalism exceeded all our expectations. Maryann was a constant source of inspiration and joy, which is exactly what kept me confident and going throughout the entire course of wedding planning.
Maryann has always responded to each e-mail and each question that we had, which ensured us of her dedication. She provided her input and her ideas to complete our initial vision of what our centerpieces and bouquets should look like and the result was simply breathtaking!
She masters her craft with devotion, creativity and love and it has been a complete honor to work with her.
Maryann deserves our highest recommendations because she is determined to contribute to your special event with her amazing floral creations, her complete professionalism and her obvious delight to work with her customers.
We look forward to working with Maryann in the future!

Flowers on the Porch was amazing! Maryann responded to my email right away and literally created exactly what I wanted. I LOVED my flowers, all of them- from the ones on the tables to my bouquet. When I saw the finished product on all the tables I nearly died- they looked amazing! She was excellent to work with and I would highly reccomend her. I would definitely use her again if I have another event.

I can't say enough good things about Flowers on the Porch! Maryann was a pleasure to work and designed the most beautiful arrangements for my fall themed wedding. For my bouquet, I wanted something different than the standard rose bouquet seen at many weddings. Maryann suggested many flowers I had never heard of that she knew would go well with my theme. The end result was beauftiful! Maryann also made pomander balls for my ceremony, did the flowers for my hair and decorated my cake. Everything was just perfect and I received many compliments from the guests on all of the flowers. Her rates were also much more reasonable than other florists I had spoken with. I highly recommend Flowers on the Porch!

Maryann from Flowers on the Porch did an amazing job with my wedding! She worked with my ideas as well as providing great feedback and insight. She worked with me and made my original 'vision' a hundred times better with her expertise, and made it all come to life on my wedding day. Maryann was wonderful to work with, incredibly talented and I thought the price was reasonable. I would highly recommend Flowers on the Porch.

When my florist back out on me last minute, Maryann came to the rescue. With only two months to put everything together and within the budget that I had, Maryann did an amazing job and exceeding my every expectation. The flowers and bouquets for our wedding are still being talked about. I would HIGHLY recommend using Maryann. Not only is she great to work with, but she puts together some of the most beautiful arrangements I have ever seen.

We cannot say enough nice things about working with Flowers on the Porch! Trying to plan a wedding from afar is difficult (we live 5 hours from where we were married), but Maryann made at least the floral side of things stress-free and smooth. We met with her once in person at her home office, where she listened very carefully to everything we said and was able to show us different samples and photographs to make sure we were communicating effectively with her as to what we had in mind. She never pressured us- which was a breath of fresh air after dealing with so many vendors who try to upgrade you on everything!
We then communicated several times via email and even added on some extra things on our own after our initial meeting. We were doing our own centerpieces, but Maryanne was able to match the style glassware we were using so that everything was coordinated. The day of the wedding went off without a hitch with regards to the flowers- they arrived at the hotel, church, and reception in plenty of time. Maryann even had to rush at the church due to the wedding before us running over time, but the setup was incredible and done in no time.
Lastly, but certainly not least- the flowers were absolutely gorgeous. I wish I could carry my bouquet every day, it was so beautiful (and surprisingly light for how full it was). We went with a little bit of a non-traditional scheme of mainly wild flowers and sun flowers, and everything was just perfect.
Thanks again, Maryann and Flowers on the Porch!

Maryann of Flowers on the Porch has wonderful expertise in floral - who knew it would all be so complicated! ;) From seasonality, to what we will on your wed day, to what might stain your dress, etc. She is very thorough in the planning of these details. Her floral work is exquisite - she created the most beautiful arrangements for our wedding day, she has a very visionary, creative quality to her work - she is not doing what 'everyone else' is doing. If you want original, gorgeous arrangements she is the way to go! She is highly professional & timely in responding to your needs. I was planning a wedding long distance and she made herself available to talk despite the time change a nd responded to emails quickly. My mother and I both come from an event planning background so we wanted to be more involved in the creative and planning process of the flowers then is typical - we were able to join forces with Maryann so that we could bring ideas to the table and she was very skilled at turning this vision into a floral reality for our day. She was very patient with our wanting to be involved more than normal, as most vendors possibly would not be comfortable with this, and she answered every question on every little detail we had. She was timely on delivering flowers to multiple event sites on the day of the wedding so working with her was a breeze - she created no stress for our day, like some vendors can, as she follows direction very well & follows through on what she commits to do to make sure everything happens seamlessly on your big day. She also made sure to be educated on our various event sites ahead of time in order to help with the floral planning, as well as the day of execution.
