AMAZING.

There really isn’t another word to describe my experience working with Desiree and the team. From day one, on our first 15 min phone conversation I knew right away she was the only one I could trust with my wedding.

The day of the wedding she far exceeded my expectations and my guests did not stop raving about how incredibly beautiful everything was.

She truly listened to every detail that I wanted, even the small ones. I wish I could have another wedding just so I could work with Desiree again!

I have nothing but good things to say about working with Desiree, the entire process was fun and easy. I don't know a thing about florals, but I explained to Desiree the vision and colors I had in mind and she handled the rest. Desiree has an eye for design and is extremely talented at what she does. I was so happy to see everything come together the day of so beautifully.

I had so much fun working with Desiree for my wedding. She was so patient as I moved from December to June due to covid and helped transform my winter vision to a beautiful summer wedding. All of the personal florals were beautiful and she was able to incorporate my mom and grandma's wedding dress into my bouquet, my mom's corsage and dad's boutonniere which was extremely special to me. Our centerpieces were a mix of candles and a beautiful white, green and gold accent floral arrangement. Everything looked stunning and the best part was working with her on all of the details! Couldn't recommend her more.

Working with Desiree was amazing! Desiree was extremely, thorough, organized, detailed oriented and an amazing listener. She heard everything I had to say and made my vision/color scheme come to life! My bouquets, boutonnières and centerpieces were magical! My favorite part about working with Desiree is that she heard my vision and made it come to life, she did not push anything that I did not want on me and was extremely reasonable and understanding. There is nothing that I can think of that Desiree could have done to make my wedding day any better. She was in my corner the entire time especially as a COVID bride. She was super supportive and helpful.

Kristin + Chris

I absolutely LOVED working with Desiree. She was so organized and easy to communicate with. Desiree was so knowledgable about flowers and was able to give me gorgeous options after she got a sense of my style. She was very professional and kept to the budget I requested.

"We're back from the honeymoon and we still can't stop talking about how perfect you made our wedding! From our very first conversation, we knew we were in good hands but you went above and beyond. I got chills when I first saw our bouquets and the Columns/Pavilion all set up. It was all so beautiful. You're style was exactly what we were looking for and it was such a pleasure to work with you. I am forever grateful that we found you. Thank you so much!"

“Desiree Dean is absolutely AMAZING! She seriously made all my wedding dreams come to life. She is kind, caring & took the time to listen to my vision. Right away she created a Pinterest board just for me- sharing specific florals she’d use & design ideas also allowing us to collaborate through the planning process, which was really great! I was also in need of a last minute arbor and so she her husband designed & BUILT me a gorgeous one out of copper pipes. It was just perfect with draping chiffon & a breathtaking assortment of florals... everything I could have ever hoped for! Our guests are still raving about how beautiful the wedding was & I could not have done it without the help of Desiree & her team! She is so talented & simply wonderful at what she does! I would highly recommend her to anyone & everyone!!!!!”

"Desiree was so wonderful to work with and the product she puts out is flawless. She made the process so easy from start to finish and arranged an in person meeting to get an idea of what I wanted. She is so knowledgeable in her industry and was able to bring my vision together. The flowers were absolutely perfect from the garland to the bouquets and the centerpieces. Desiree kept me in the loop every step of the process and I absolutely loved working with her and will do so in the future!"

“Selecting Desiree Dean as our florist was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!! Her creativity and attention to detail is amazing; she is incredibly talented!! I told her I wanted big floral arrangements, colorful, and with lots of greenery, and she knocked it out of the park and went above and beyond what I imagined. I could have never pictured more beautiful wedding flowers!! It's been just about two weeks since our wedding, and friends and family are STILL talking about how gorgeous and different all of our wedding flowers were, and asking us who we used. I highly recommend using Desiree Dean for your wedding! She is responsive and easy to work with, and makes the wedding floral process fun!”

"Where do I begin?? I’m actually sad my wedding is over because now I don’t have an excuse to chat with Desiree all the time. I truly feel like I’ve made a life long friend with her, that’s how personable and trustworthy she is. Not only did she create my perfect day, but she had SO much fun doing it and you could see how much she truly cares about what she does. My first time speaking with Desiree about my vision, I hung up the phone with her and felt like I had finally been heard!! She really understood exactly what I wanted. Fast forward to the day of my wedding, and my expectations were exceeded times 30. I was in true awe of the work desiree and her team had done. If you want your vision to come to life with a vendor who truly has your best interest at heart, call her!!!"

Megan + Travis

“I found Desiree after first trying a local florist who turned out to be incredibly rude. I needed a lot of guidance with my flower arrangements as I only had colors in mind. Desiree was able to work my style, colors, and budget into beautiful bouquets. She also came up with really unique boutonnieres for the guys. At first my husband didn’t want any boutonnieres, but after I showed him her idea he was sold. Desiree was so responsive, and even helped me find my hair and makeup artist! She delivered everything on time, and kept me posted with all updates. People were telling me all night how beautiful my flowers were.”

"When I spoke with Desiree about the arrangements for my wedding, I was impressed and comforted by her professionalism and knowledge of her craft. I know nothing about flowers so I trusted whole heartedly in her professional eye. Not only were the flowers for my wedding amazingly beautiful, but my guests were clamoring over the centerpieces! Desiree has such a talent for taking the essence of your wedding and adding her design esthetic. Loved the flowers, amazing job!!"

Christine + Phil

"All I can say is WOW!!!!!! I have so much appreciation for Desiree and her team. Over the past year Desiree was so much more than just my wedding florist. She was my event designer, friend, and possibly therapist (hahaha). I am a creative person and am flower obsessed. I had a very specific vision for our wedding day and Desiree totally understood, was just as excited as I was about the design, and she absolutely killed it!! Desiree is amazing to work with. Her passion for what she does shines through the entire process. She helped me pick each individual flower for my wedding bouquet and even helped me to match the ribbon to my bridesmaids dresses. She is kind, patient, accommodating, and was always just a quick text message away. The flowers and design were stunning. Guests were awed and even the venue said they had never seen the ballroom so transformed. Everyone absolutely loved it!"

"Working with Desiree is spectacular. After seeing the work she did for our close friends’ wedding in 2018, we knew we wanted her to be a part of our wedding day. After our first call together to discuss the vision I knew she was the perfect fit. Desiree is truly so skilled at her art while also being a wonderful, kind, patient and creative human. I am so grateful to Desiree Dean Designs for bringing the vision we created together to life and for going above and beyond. If you are searching for a floral event designer look no further as you will be so grateful to have her and her team as part of your day!"

"Wedding planning can be super stressful, but working with Desiree is the complete opposite! You can tell that she loves what she does and it truly shows! Aside from what a wonderful person Desiree is, her work is just as amazing. She is so talented! I first spoke with Desiree on the phone and gave her an idea of what I wanted. After that, she sent me a power point presentation of the visuals. Last, we met with Desiree a few weeks before the wedding to go over the final details. Desiree created the centerpieces, bouquets, boutonnieres, the decor, and decorated the arbor for our ceremony. Everything was just perfect and I received so many compliments from our guests. I highly recommend her to everyone!"

"Working with Desiree Dean Designs was more than a pleasure from the very beginning. She helped me realize what I actually wanted and explained all the different flowers to me. She had the most patience and wonderful customer service a bride could ask for. Desiree is professional and extremely loves what she does. When she delivered my bouquet to my house she had tears in her eyes. I couldn’t have asked for a better florist. You wont go wrong with working with Desiree’. She becomes a friend!!!”

Kristen + Pat

"Words can’t express how happy and thankful I am I chose Desiree Dean as my florist for my wedding. She went above and beyond to make my wedding absolutely stunning. She was more than just my florist she was my right hand as she helped me put together my centerpieces, florals for the arbor and even my wedding cake topper. I was expecting to do my own centerpieces the day before and when she told me no, she does everything and even took all the material a month before, it was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. She truly was outstanding and made my vision come to life. She was knowledgeable, professional, affordable and so much fun to work with. She did walk throughs with me at the venue and we texted back and forth regarding which flowers I liked and didn’t like. She was one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding and I could not thank her enough for everything she did. I HIGHLY recommend her to everyone."

“We loved working with Desiree! She is so incredibly sweet and amazing to work with. Desiree brought our look to life with what we wanted for our wedding and was so accommodating to our needs with timing and delivery. Her flowers added the perfect touch to our wedding day and photos. She is the best and you can tell she truly loves what she does and values her customers.”

"She 100% is in this industry to make your dream wedding become reality. During my whole planning process Desiree never told me something couldn’t be done and always made whatever crazy idea I thought of work out in my favor. Desiree and her team were hard working and precise with all of their attention to detail. She designed special copper structures and even repurposed my whole ceremony arch into my reception so we wouldn’t lose out on any designs. Whenever I had a question or idea I never had to hesitate in contacting Desiree because it was like talking to my best friend. She always was so excited to work with me and on planning my wedding which made me feel like she was family. Her professionalism and dedication to getting her job done is not like most and she will do anything for her bride no matter what the cost! She was very collaborative with me and always made me feel like I could trust her with any job. The day of my wedding I was absolutely mind blown with the final room reveal. She even added small detailed surprises I was not expecting. Everything I dreamt of was perfectly better then I could ever imagined. It was exactly how I visioned but different, it was more then I envisioned and that is priceless!!!! She saw it all and really understood the whole picture. After the wedding everyone was still asking me what kind of florals did I use because they wanted similar decor for their parties... not knowing the Desiree actually hand dyed pampas grass for me to match my design ideas. Desiree is truly a gem that can be trusted with any job. She will make your dream wedding vision come to life and really cares about it as much as you do. Do not hesitate to book her as a vendor because even if you have no idea what style wedding you want right now, she will help you figure that out and she will help you bring it to life. We are forever happy with the best day of our lives. Thank you so much Desiree Dean Designs!"

"Desiree is to flowers what Maya Angelou's words are on paper - eloquent, beautiful, and creative. She created a sophisticated and intimate atmosphere with her creative timeless flowers. I requested black and white flowers (anenome - which in fact are a deep blue in the center!) with white ranunculus and boy did she deliver!!!! She heard me and we ran together with this vision. I want to relive this day all over again just for the flowers!! Just look at the TABLESCAPE and my BOUQUET ! SHE DID THAT!!! Thank you SO much Desiree for the opportunity to work with you and make my vision come true. I appreciate you and can't wait to see your new space with all the magic you create in there!"
