Spectacular!!!! And let me start by saying, I didn't think I cared about florals, until I met Sherry and Pat... But they brought a vision (I didn't even know I had), to life!

Southern blooms did the flowers for my wedding in October 2019. They took some really loose visions and made some funky, unique, gorgeous bouquets and arrangements! I was in love with the flowers. I had never seen anything like them, but felt like they fit right in.

Pat and Sherry were so flexible and creative, they were a dream to work with. I was humbled by their thoughtfulness in how to reuse the florals throughout the night. They are honest women, who do amazing work. Further, I emailed them almost daily in the days leading up to the wedding, adding and changing last minute items... they rolled with all the punches!

I cannot recommend these gals enough!

Southern Blooms exceeded my already high expectations. I had hired them based on their excellent reputation and they certainly delivered! The flowers at our wedding were stunning - they really transformed the entire space. Guests are still talking about how beautiful everything was. Pat and Sherry are wonderful people to work with and were great at listening to what we wanted and then making our vision a reality. Everything looked perfect and we couldn't have been happier.

We were thrilled to work with Southern Blooms. They were a pleasure to work with from the beginning (happy to adjust our orders as small details changed leading up to the big day) and WOW were the flowers amazing. We received SO many compliments from our guests. I didn't realize floral arrangements could have such an impact on our wedding -- but they did. And we will treasure our photos of their arrangements as well as the pressings that I am so glad we ordered.

This was one of my favorite parts of wedding planning and the big day. We absolutely LOVED everything about our experience with this company and Pat and Sherry. My mom and I got to have a meeting with them to discuss our floral preferences and it was one of the most fun conversations we had during wedding planning. We felt as if we all left as friends. They were an absolute JOY to work with. As far as their flowers? Pure artwork - every creation they did for us was absolutely beautiful. The flowers had me speechless on wedding day. You have nothing to fear when you hire Pat & Sherry to provide the florals/greenery for your wedding day. They took my vision and made it even better than I could have imagined. Our pictures are absolutely gorgeous. I wish I could have kept all of the flowers forever. Can't speak highly enough of them! There's nobody better in the area and they are worth every penny!

Unbelievable. I could not have asked for more beautiful flowers for our wedding. They were great to work with, offered excellent suggestions based on our interests, and executed it perfectly. They were able to provide us with some additional furniture rentals which was an added bonus to avoid an extra delivery fee had we needed to do it with another vendor. There is a reason these guys are featured in so many magazines! So beautiful! More...

I used Pat's Floral Designs for my and my 5 bridesmaid's bouquets. They turned out absolutely phenomenal and were exactly what I wanted. I sent them a few different Pinterest pictures and described what I wanted and they created something unique and beautiful. They were a little more expensive than some of the other places I had looked but worth every penny. They also provided a few flowers for my cake. More...

If you want a genuine, kind, talented, dedicated group of individuals look no further. Pat's floral design is amazing! They took the time to meet with us, capture our personality and work small details into the wedding design to make everything just perfect! They literally tied figure eight knots into the bridal bouquet to help highlight our passion of rock climbing (they also added rope detail into the groom and groomsmen boutonnieres). They obviously really care about the work they do and it really shows in their flawless execution. They were a joy to work with and helped make our wedding absolutely perfect! Thank you! More...

Easily one of my favorite vendors that we had! Not only were the ladies at Southern Blooms the sweetest people ever, but they have such an incredible passion for what they do and understand your vision. This should say a lot-- I trusted them so much that I told them my colors and generally the flowers I liked and let them do the rest--I told them I wanted them to come up with all of the centerpieces with whatever they thought and they absolutely blew me away! See the video of Lauren & Brandon for details (by Ian's Creations). Can't wait to see all of the pictures! More...

Choosing florals for our wedding was one of the most important priorities alongside choosing a photographer and venue and I promise you Southern Blooms does NOT disappoint! I knew we were in good hands from our very first meeting and I really enjoyed visiting their gorgeous new show room where they have tons of rental pieces to choose from. Pat and her team are so sweet, laid back and easy to talk to, they are incredibly professional and you can tell they truly love what they do! Not only were they able to keep us within our budget by giving us lots of ideas such as re-using some of the ceremony flowers during the reception, but they also completely brought my vision to life better than I could have ever imagined! I had originally planned for a gorgeous floral arbor for our outdoor ceremony, but due to the rain we had to execute our Plan B and have our ceremony indoors. Southern Blooms was able to create two large STUNNING arrangements instead of the arbor at the last minute that looked as though we had always planned it that way! Our wedding was breathtaking with all the greenery and pretty florals and I highly recommend Southern Blooms to any future brides-to-be!! More...

Southern Blooms (Pat's Floral Design) did an absolutely amazing job with the flowers for my June wedding in Keswick, VA. The ladies were so easy to work with and SO SWEET. They immediately understood my color preferences and design aesthetic, and worked with me to select beautiful vases and table elements that really brought the design of our wedding together.

Southern Blooms (Pat's Floral Designs) was the perfect choice for my wedding at The Inn at Willow Grove in Orange, VA. They were experienced and knew my venue and what would look best. They also helped me decide how to reuse some flowers like the ceremony arrangements and bouquets to help decorate the reception. They have a beautiful new showroom space full of great rental pieces that helped me polish the look and feel of our wedding. I also rented two gorgeous farm tables from them to use as our head table. They were available to answer questions and were punctual about delivery and set-up. After having seen the work they had done on other area weddings, I knew I was in good hands and did not have to worry. They took the color palette that I chose and some notes about my favorite flowers and then worked their magic! I would recommend them to anyone! More...

After one meeting they were able to create incredible centerpieces, arrangements, an altar archway, and the most beautiful bouquets you've ever seen that all perfectly blended with my vision. The ladies at Pat's are some of the sweetest and most generous in the wedding business and they are SO talented! PLUS they have an amazing barn full of every decor item you could think of (we used candelabras, votives, etc.) that add that extra zing!

Lindsay was simply a joy to work with! She took our vision and our budget and made it work. The flowers were just incredibly beautiful! She exceeded our expectations and everything was perfect!! Our guests raved about how elegant everything looked. I was concerned when looking for a florist that once they showed you their previous work and you pointed out what you liked, that you would get a "cookie cutter" design based on color palate. Rest assured, that is not what you get with Pat's. It was completely tailored to our vision and style. We could not be more pleased and would definitely recommend them! More...

We chose Pat's based on their fantastic reputation. Pat and Sherry absolutely exceeded expectations, and everything they delivered was top-notch. They've been doing this for a long time and had lots of great tips for what in-season flowers to use as well as how to re-use flowers during the course of the day to save money. They do amazing work and are simply the best florists in the Charlottesville area.

Pat and Sherry were professional, responsive and accommodating during the entire process. They accommodated a special ribbon request and were responsive to numerous changes up until wedding day.

We received numerous compliments both during and after the reception about the flowers. We would absolutely use them again and would enthusiastically recommend them to friends and family.

We loved working with Pat's! During our initial consultation, the staff really took the time to walk us through the whole picking-out-flowers process and were very open to our suggestions. Pat, Sharon, and others helped us translate our vision into a beautiful reality -- especially important since our families are avid gardeners (including a dad who teaches Master Gardeners classes!) who notice everything about floral arrangements and since both of us love candlelight. The consummate professional at Pat's understood. We absolutely knew we were in safe hands.

Our one (minor) disappointment was not floral in nature -- it was arboreal. :-) While we would have loved an outdoor reception, we're a little too risk averse. Didn't want to chance a garden party in early May, which is often very wet! So we asked Pat and company for a couple of leafy trees in the large banquet hall of a local winery. As the Big Day approached and we had our final chat with Pat's staff, we asked whether two would be enough to convey the "indoor garden" feel we were looking for. While we were willing to get a couple more, she assured us that two were plenty. Unfortunately, we were a little disappointed that the trees were smallish and wilted-looking, even at the start of the cocktail hour. We definitely didn't get the feel we wanted... from the trees. The arrangements and lanterns, on the other hand, were STUNNING.

Pat, Sherry, and their team are incredible! We worked with them for our wedding and rehearsal dinner in May 2013. From the moment we first had a consultation with Pat, I knew we didn't need to look any further. Their work speaks for itself but to top that off, they are so friendly and nice. It was so comforting to know that all of our florals would show up the day of and be absolutely beautiful - this is incredibly important when picking a florist! They were constantly willing to come out to our venue (which was our home) for site visits to ensure everything would be set up correctly the day of - we really appreciated this. The flowers lasted and never got droopy which I have noticed at other wedding tends to happen with bouquets especially ones with hydrangea which ours had. As well, they have the most beautiful farm tables available to rent which really add to the decor. We are so thankful we found them and I would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding!

Pat and Sherry were the greatest to work with for my daughter's wedding. They took time to meet with us and find out what we liked and did not like. The bridal bouquet was perfect- beautiful with peonies, hydrangeas, and sahara roses. The bridesmaids bouquets were also beautiful- perfectly matching the dresses. The centerpieces for the seated dinner at Farmington could not have been more lovely. We planned half low centerpieces and half tall. They had gorgeous silver candelabra which we used and put flowers in the center of it. The room looked beautiful. We could not have been more pleased. I would highly recommend them! More...

Pat took us on and made my bride feel amazing about the floral arrangements that weren't decided upon and to be done in 3 more months!

I absolutely loved my flowers! I am not a creative person but I knew the colors I wanted in my wedding. I met with the florist and she helped me pick out colors for each bouquet. She took my thoughts and transformed them into beautiful flower bouquets. She also worked within my price range and substituted seasonal flowers to make it cheaper whenever she could. She also suggested that we place empty vases on the head table at the reception and place the bridal and bridesmaids' bouquets in them as flowers for the reception. She provided and set up empty vases at the reception site so they were ready for the bouquets when the bridal party arrived. She also provided flower petals and arranged them beautifully on each table at the reception. She also provided flower petals that our guests threw for our getaway after the reception. It looked gorgeous! I was so grateful for their expertise! I highly recommend them. More...

Pat's Floral Designs was the first wedding vendor my husband and I met with, and we were so happy we did! Immediately, Pat and Sherry made us feel at ease with their combination of creativity, professionalism, and warmth. They were a huge part of the overall design process, suggesting interesting pieces in addition to floral elements. Meetings with Pat and Sherry were fantastic--they made us even more excited about the big day.

My husband and I had a general idea of what kind of flowers we wanted, but for the most part we let Pat and Sherry work with what they thought was lovely and appropriate to our theme. As a result, everything looked gorgeous and matched perfectly with the other decor elements. It was great to know that we could let Pat's Floral Designs work their magic and everything would turn out beautifully.

Pat's Floral Designs is way more than just a florist. Pat and Sherry have an amazing attention to detail and an eye for beauty.

Thank goodness for Pat and Sherry! Not only did they do beautiful work but they are also really nice people. My wedding was a destination, and they were kind enough to meet us at the linen rental place in town with a mock up of the table arrangements so we could play with different table linens, etc. They were also really patient and hung in there with me as I looked through hundreds of photos to figure out just what I wanted.

I also appreciated their candor in telling me that there were certain flowers that they just wouldn't do at the time of the wedding b/c the quality wouldn't have been good enough. (I'm so glad they were straight with me instead showing up with ragged, limp tulips because I SAID that's what I wanted.)

The only issue that it often took them a while to respond to my calls/emails. After a while, I realized that this is because they are super busy and in demand, but at first I sometimes felt like my messages were going into a bit of a black hole. However, they always got back to me eventually. They are quite reliable - you may just need to be a bit patient!

Wonderful! I highly recommend them!
