We thought you might like to look at some of the mail we have received from our customers. To tell you the truth, in this hurry up world, we are always thrilled when anyone cares enough to take the time, to send us their comments.
To those of you who have written, Thank-you, you always brighten our day!
It was Friday, my birthday and a work day. I came into the office and no one said very much, like maybe, “Hi, Happy Birthday????”. At about 9:30 in the morning a box arrived with my name on it and I was called to Reception to sign for it. I carried this large box to the kitchen followed by about twelve of the girls in the office. I opened the box and everyone yelled “Surprise!!!! and started singing Happy Birthday. Inside this box there were about 125 of the most beautiful, colorful, aromatic flowers you could imagine. I had the most wonderful time sharing these beautiful flowers (I certainly couldn’t fit 125 flowers into my one vase, and besides sharing is nice) with the rest of the girls in the office as they brought their vases, coffee mugs, water glasses and pitchers. The girls had chipped in to buy these flowers in honor of my birthday.
For the next two weeks we all had fresh flowers on our desks and it felt like we were celebrating my birthday for two weeks instead of one day. None of us could believe how beautiful these flowers were and how long they lived.
I just wanted to thank you for providing me with so much pleasure with your fabulous flowers. For flowers to stay fresh for two weeks tells you how fresh they had to be when they were shipped. Thank you for this great gift. We have decided to order from you for every event so we can have fresh flowers around the office all the time.
Gratefully,

Beth,
As a wedding and special event consultant I align myself with others within the business that share my same business ethics. Brides & Blooms I am pleased to say rank high on my portfolio of venders and service providers that I utilize for my clients.
Recently I (Effortless Events) purchased roses from Brides & Blooms to be used as décor and ‘give-away’ at a local area Bridal Show. I was extremely pleased with the color, size and freshness of the roses. I sincerely believe that the roses contributed to the successful traffic I experienced.
It’s a pleasure working with everyone at Brides & Blooms from the owners Beth and Dorelle down to their ordering department associates.

Dear Brides and Blooms:
I never thought I would be writing a letter like this one, but I just had to let you know…
I did something on a whim; I was trying like heck to impress a young lady in my office. I couldn’t come up with just the right thing. A friend of mine happened across your website and brought it to my attention. A bulb went off, what if I was able to do a “Donald Trump”, I couldn’t whisk her away on my private jet, but I could, just maybe, fill her cubicle with flowers.
I called your Company, and told the consultant my plan, and my budget, no problem she said.
What do you want, when do you want it and where should it go? Those were the only questions I needed to answer. Then, the biggest question was mine, HOW MUCH?
I was absolutely shocked; I got 125 roses delivered to this young lady, for less than I had paid last Valentine’s Day for 3 Dozen roses.
Thank-you soooo much for everything. I tell all my buddies about you, now when they are in trouble or just want to impress, they can call you, look like a tycoon, and still have money in their pockets for that “Romantic Dinner” to follow.

To Whom it may concern:
I am writing this note to you, on behalf of my daughter. We recently held a Quinceanera In her honor.
I worked with one of your consultants, and she was able to come up with a very interesting way to display the table centerpiece flowers. We worked together to choose the right type of flowers and then discussed how we were going to put them together.
The flowers arrived, on the day we had chosen, and we followed the directions on how to handle them.
The day of the party we arranged them and set them up. All the guests were amazed at what a wonderful job we had done. We enjoyed them all that night, and then brought them home. We also had extra flowers at home, that we didn’t use for the arrangements.
We went away for a week, came home, and to our shock, the flowers were still gorgeous, we cut them again, and would you believe, they lived another week?
Thank-you Brides and Blooms for helping us to have the very best flowers that we could have expected to have.
We tell everyone about you.

Dear Brides and Blooms:
Just wanted to let you know that our School fundraiser was a huge success.
Because we are such a small school, we never thought we would be able to work with a wholesaler. Your consultants helped us to come up with the right answer to our fundraising dilemma.
Our parents ordered bouquets of various flowers, and our students had a wonderful time arranging them. I think that this is the kind of fundraiser that all PTAs should consider doing.
It’s amazing how much money we were able to make with such a minimal order.
We will look forward to working with you again, and again…..
Thank-You for all your help, and for your donation.

Hi Dorelle!
I just wanted to share a few pix with you of the flowers. EVERYONE was talking about them! I was hearing comments like…”Hey! These roses are real! They look to perfect to be real!”
And fragrant…oh my gosh! They filled the room with a wonderful aroma! Some people thought we had sprayed the room with something so it would smell like a florist shop. I told them, “No, I just got the freshest flowers you’ve ever seen!” It was just as if we had picked them fresh from the garden.
I have a new favorite flower…The Titanic is beyond words. Even the men were commenting about them.
Well, I’ll end by saying, you made a young bride on a TIGHT budget VERY happy! Thanks again! I look forward to working with you again soon. In the meantime, if you want to use me for a testimonial or reference, you’ve got it!
Gratefully,

We have been purchasing flowers from Brides & Blooms for years and LOVE THEM!!. We have bouquets of flowers delivered to our office every other week. Our employees love having flowers on their desk. Every person who comes into the office comments on how beautiful and fresh the flowers in our reception area look and how wonderful it is come into an office and see and smell fresh flowers.
The flowers are so fresh that often when the next set of bouquets arrive two weeks later, we are able to send the older flowers home with our personnel. As you can imagine they are thrilled.
The service is FANTASTIC Dorelle is a dream to work with and she always has a smile in her voice. Even when we need some personal advice on a personal events or flowers she’s right there to help.
Brides & Blooms you are Awesome….Thank you!!!

I have referred Brides & Blooms many times! I love their product – their flowers are fresh and their roses are actually fragrant! It’s so easy to order and they arrive in perfect shape and really last. Dorelle is delightful to work with and she is also incredibly supportive of other vendors in the bridal industry. I am now working on a huge gala and she was the first person I recommended, knowing that this charitable organization would get a great deal and have all the support they need to make their centerpieces look fabulous! I can recommend Dorelle and Brides & Blooms with confidence!

Dorelle really knows her flowers and is wonderful to work with. She answered my questions, and gave me much needed guidance. Wonderful company, great people and the price is right!
Beth M. Sparling, on February 4, 2010 at 5:20 pm Said:
My experience with Dorelle and Brides & Blooms has always been extremely positive! They are very customer service oriented and are committed to providing their clients with the best quality of floral product available. Dorelle works with each client on an individual basis to create their dream wedding or event. I would highly recommend using Brides & Blooms for all of your floral needs!!
Deb Kelley, on February 4, 2010 at 5:45 pm Said:
I’ve been working with Dorelle for over two years and have been impressed at the quality and types of floral products she offers at such incredible, affordable prices. I recommend Dorelle and Brides & Blooms to anybody who wants to make their “special occasion” something even more beautiful and memorable.
Elizabeth Sparks, on February 4, 2010 at 6:37 pm Said:
I have to say, this blog is “spot on.” The flowers are fresh and lovely, and Dorelle is delightful to work with. I’ve created several types of centerpieces with flowers from Brides & Blooms, encouraged by Dorelle – “Yes, you can do it!” And I have to put in a plug for her floral workshops. Get a small group together, where all share the cost of the flowers, and everyone goes home with a beautiful arrangement (or two) that they created themselves. My friends loved it. (I’ve got to do that again.)

Dorelle from BridesnBlooms.com is an amazing talent. Extremely creative and incredibly helpful. There isn’t anything she won’t do to help you with your event. It’s always a pleasure to work with Dorelle!

Brides & Blooms creates beautiful work and Dorelle is very professional. Congratulations ~ well deserved!
Linda Elland, on February 4, 2010 at 10:58 pm Said:
Dorelle is the first person I met when I started my own meeting planning company and I was so impressed with her energy and passion for her work and her desire to provide a quality floral experience at prices that are deeply discounted. She is a lifesaver!!!
Dorelle was discussed today with another event planner as she provided flowers and centerpieces for a high level association event and we commented that the blooms were so beautiful, lasted over a week and were still beautiful and full in their final hours.
Andrea Krudo, on February 5, 2010 at 3:54 pm Said:
Dorelle is a woman of integrity, and a professional of the highest quality. Her flowers are fresh and gorgeous. It is obvious she is passionate about what she does, and takes great pride in fulfilling the needs of her customers. I recommend her, and her lovely flowers every chance I get.
Kathy Jodrey, on February 5, 2010 at 6:25 pm Said:
If you’re planning a wedding, or any other important event, do yourself a huge favor and give Dorelle at BridesnBlooms a call. Not only will you receive the most exquisite, fresh flowers you could imagine, but you’ll receive the level of customer support that is very lacking in many businesses today.
Dorelle’s vision of providing affordable flowers to brides and others has grown into a nation wide, successful business. I’m excited for her success, it couldn’t happen to a more worthy person!
Linda, on February 6, 2010 at 2:01 pm Said:
Dorelle is hard working, organized, kind and thoughtful. With all these fine attributes you can be assured you will receive not less than top quality service and products.
Her flowers are some of the prettiest I have ever seen. Now when budgets are tighter than ever Brides And Blooms provides alternatives that allows any one planning a special event to stay within budget.
Thank you Dorelle for all your hard work.

Dorelle is a hard worker that puts her clients first! She has been nothing but a professional since I have met her a year ago. She has excellent prices compared to other florists all around the nation and would definitely recommend her to any of my clients who are getting married. Great work Dorelle!
Universal Music Entertainment (Ronald Michel), on February 10, 2010 at 3:37 pm Said:
BridesnBlooms is an excellent company to work with and I recommend all of my brides and other clientele to her.
