WOW, Exceeded All Expectations !!


Purchase: 100 hydrangeas in blue, green and white to be mailed from CA to TX. on July 18th

I purchased my flowers Wednesday, they were cut and shipped Thursday, they arrived Friday and needed to last until Sunday night. Nervous? Most definitely. Did they wilt? Not at ALL!

First, they arrived early in the morning in a huge and well packed box with ice packs. When I opened it, they were EXACTLY the colors I had in mind. I spent many emails and phone conversations with Jim trying to communicate the color preferences I had and what I was hoping to get. He nailed it!!!! :D

The scariest part was wondering if they'd last for a few days. I immediately re-cut all stems and put them in their vases according to the directions. On the day of the wedding, we re-cut to the appropriate length, put all 100 into huge coolers and headed out.

They stayed beautiful, fresh, perky and colorful. I was so excited to put them out on our tables and around our cake. They were *perfect*. The happiest vendor experience of my wedding, probably!!! And SUCH a good price compared to a full florist!!!!!


Quality !!! Quality !!! Quality !!!

Hello Jim!

We ordered some Jewel Antique hydrangeas from you for our wedding on September 1st. I just wanted to take a moment to let you know how beautiful the flowers were and what a lovely touch they gave our wedding. We got so many compliments on the flowers! They were absolutely gorgeous! And certainly a great bargain.
Is there anywhere I can write a review for you and your business? I want to let other brides/customers know that they are getting a great deal and beautiful flowers from you and your business!
Also, here are some photos of the flowers in our wedding. We thought you might like that. 
Thanks again!

Brittany was Impressed how well the hydrangea held up in in her Minnesota heat in early July !!


Jim,
The flowers were so gorgeous!! I was very shocked at how well they held up in the heat we had in Minnesota the week of my wedding. It was 99 degrees the day I got married. It was such a beautiful day though and the flowers you sent made it perfect! That you so much for having a big part of my wedding turn out so nice. I am sending a few pictures of the flowers! Thanks again, I will be suggesting you to anyone looking for Hydrangeas!!

The happiest bride...ever! .... Natalie Rogovin's 8-07-10 Wedding


Dear Jim,
I cannot begin to tell you that your flowers were the most beautiful that I have ever seen.  The photos on your website don't even begin to do justice to the flowers.  They say a picture says a thousands words, so rather than go on about how AMAZING they are I have attached some photos from my wedding.  There photos were taken by my photographer, but I own the pictures and their rights so feel free to use.
Thank you!!!!!
Natalie Rogovin

Unpacking the hydrangea flowers upon arrival and placing the 300 flower order in storage.











The Hydrangea Flowers placed in a cool location getting hydrated before they are made into the boutonnieres, bouquets and the Pew and Table top arrangements.

Hydrangea bouquets kept in water up to the time of use to keep them fresh, Leave an inch or two of stem exposed to get them into the water w/out getting your ribbon wet.









Looks like they kept the hydrangea boutonnieres in moist baggies up to the time of actual use.








Hydrangea boutonnieres were pieces of the hydrangea flower head assembled together and tied with florist tape.

Kacie and Ty Mitchell, November 1st Wedding 2008
Hello Jim,I wanted to touch base with you and send you some pictures of the flowers we received from you for our wedding. We loved them and it made our arrangements absolutely gorgeous. I will tell you one thing, maybe its common knowledge, but it took me about an hour of struggling to figure it out, but you should remind or warn those that are buying the flowers to also purchase cutting sheers. I had scissors at first then a razor blade and finally someone suggested garden sheers. I know it probably makes since to most people, but it would have reduced my time by 1/2 had I had those in the beginning. Other than that, every part of buying the flowers from you was amazing!








Immersing the flowers under water

When the flowers got in they we in need of fluffing and water and once we got them in the tub they looked great.

It was so easy to arrange the flowers and I am so happy with the results of everything. We had an absolutely amazing wedding and everyone commented on how much they loved the decor and the flowers. Thank you again, I hope you enjoy the pictures, Take care,Kacie and Ty Mitchell November 1, 2008 Wedding

Antonina Wedding 1-03-09













This wedding proved to us at www.weddinghydrangea.com/ that we could provide our hydrangea blooms to our customers at this time of year. It also showed us that we were able to have the flowers arrive in beautiful condition even in the winter snows.
Antonina was wonderful to send us these pictures of her wedding and for the following testimonial.

Hello Mr. Hipple,
I wanted to thank you for the beautiful hydrangeas. They were the perfect touch to our winter wedding. I know it was the end of the season for you and I so appreciate you going ahead and sending us the order.
We used our pantry to organize the flowers and as instructed cut the hydrangeas under water and soaked them until we were ready to start arranging bouquets. I have had hydrangeas in the house before but never thought to give them a good bath. What a difference that made.
The flowers were amazing and remained fresh and vibrant days after the wedding. Thank you for adding the sparkle to make my dream wedding even more memorable. Regards,Antonina

















(preping the flowers to be used in the wedding.)

Hello Mr. Hipple,

I do appreciate you sending the hydrangeas despite the snow. They were so lovely and added the perfect touch to the wedding. We had so many compliments and highly recommended you to our friends.
Thank you again. I can't wait to order hydrangeas from you again.
