I phoned the flower order in from out of state.  The recipient sent  me a picture of the flowers and they appeared to be lovely.  Almost two weeks later, they were still ALIVE...seriously... how fresh are flowers that they last that long. I was told the arrangement was one of the best they had received.  Will definitely be using them in the future. More...

Gathered stems did a wonderful job of putting together the flowers for my daughter's wedding.

We recently contracted with Ashley at Gathered Stems for our daughter's wedding . The quality of the flowers, the colors and combinations were stunning . Ashley went the extra mile and obtained flowers that several other florists told us were out of season and unavailable . A month later I am still getting compliments on the flowers. Don't waste your time with other florists . You won't find anyone better or more talented than Ashley . Weddings are too important to settle for second-best . Lastly , I was very pleasantly surprised to find Gathered Stems prices were less then the other florists I contacted. More...

Gathered stems did the flowers for my wedding and they were perfect- exactly what I had asked for and envisioned. We discovered Gathered Stems after several disappointing meetings with another local florist. Ashley was able to see my vision on the first try and was able to find the specific flowers I wanted, even a few that were out of season. The flowers and greenery were beautiful and great quality. I felt so relieved when I saw the mock-up table bouquet she had done. The pricing was also very reasonable. My parents and I were so happy with the services provided by Gathered Stems and with the care and attention that Ashley and the staff used to make my wedding flowers exactly what I had imagined.

Ashley and the rest of the gathered stem team did a phenomenal job with our flowers for our wedding! All of our guests commented how amazing they looked, including my MOT who doesn't like flowers! She definitely knows what she is doing and you will not regret choosing her! She was very flexible with me when I needed some things to change and I really appreciated that. We went on our honeymoon and came back a week later and the flowers still looked AWESOME! Do yourself a favor, and pick them!!! More...

Yesterday I needed an arrangement for my cousin's memorial service in Vienna. I called Ashley at Gathered Stems and she made my choice very easy and affordable. I phoned and never was placed on hold and the questions Ashley asked regarding times of availability for receiving the flowers were spot on.I requested an email be sent to me of the flowers because I was sending them in my childrens' names as well as my own and this way I could share the choice with the family.The flowers are beautiful. I have never used this nursery before but I like to call a local shop versus paying my money to 1 800 Flowers or some other national vendor. I live in Nevada and just googled florists.I am grateful for the kind and helpful support of Ashley and Gathered Stems so as to present respectful and beautiful flowers to my cousin's family. I will call again if the need arises. More...

I have nothing but great feedback about my experience with Gathered Stems.I hired them to do the centerpieces and flower arrangements for my daughters Bat Mitzvah. They were GREAT at listening to my requests and making suggestions of they types of flowers that would coordinate with our color theme. We also had special centerpieces made to coordinate with the theme of the event.From the very start, they were a pleasure to work with. Everything was delivered on time and exactly as I had ordered. The staff was extremely attentive and communicated with me the entire time. Simply spectacular is how I would describe the quality of the flowers and the arrangements. I received tons of compliments at the event and everyone wanted to know who I went with. More...

I have used Gathered Stems for several years and been pleased every single time.  Ashley's creativity is astounding.  She learns my clients' tastes and adjusts each flower arrangement to best suit each client. I hate to tell her what to do because i love what she does when she creates her own designs.  She comes up with things i could never even dream of.  I will continue to use her. More...

I'm an event planner in DC and I've used Gathered Stems for numerous private events. My guests always ask me where I got such beautiful flowers. The arrangements are always so unique and different, the flowers are always so fresh, and they last much longer than typical arrangement. Ashley has such a great eye, and I love that the arrangements are always different and always reflect the season.  Best flower shop in the DC area by far! More...

Ashley was very helpful for a bride like myself who only had a color palette and no knowledge of flower types. I like working with women owned businesses because I feel you get a personal touch. Ashley made sure my order was special and was able to make last minute additions as well. The flowers were absolutely beautiful and matched the pictures I pulled exactly. She's very talented.

In our house we always have flowers and my husband treats me with lavish bouquets quite often.. Last week while at his company HQ in Mc Lean,  he asked the HR director for a good florist and she suggested Gathered Stems. He came home with a beautiful yellow roses (my favourite colour) composition.The arrangement was beautiful, full and the quality of the flowers outstanding.  Fantastic place -  Great quality - I don't know how much the flowers cost but  the quality will justify a little extra $.Highly recommended !!!

Ashley (owner/designer) did really beautiful work that was well within budget and was exactly what I wanted. She listened to what I wanted, but also provided suggestions based on what flowers were in season (and would therefore look better and be cheaper), and what flowers would hold up throughout the day. She added some unique touches that were artistic while still being classically elegant. Everything was on time and just as I expected. I would definitely recommend Gathered Stems!! More...

I have used Gathered Stems for many occasions - my wedding, funerals, mother's day, etc.  They have always been courteous, listened to what I want, and provided suggestions within budget and to my taste.  They always use the highest quality flowers that are gorgeous and unlike anything I've seen elsewhere.  The owner/designer is very knowledgeable about flower varieties, and knows what is appropriate for different occasions (how flowers will hold up, etc.).  She always designs something that has unique touches that you don't see from other florists, yet is still elegant, tasteful and beautiful.  I always get compliments on the flowers from here and I will continue to use Gathered Stems and recommend them to everyone!

Used Gathered Stems for my daughter's Bat Mitzvah. We had centerpieces as well as flowers for the Bimah at the temple.  One word, OUSTANDING! !  They had to make deliveries on two separate days and showed up on time with the most gorgeous flower arrangements.  From the beginning they were a dream to work with.  They listened to the details of the event, the theme, the colors and we came up with a game plan for the flowers.  They had great ideas for the types of flowers and colors for the arrangements.The arrangements were spot on what we had discussed and the quality of the product was amazing.  They centerpieces lasted for weeks after we took them home.Absolutely would work with them again for my next event.  A definite cut above any other florist I've worked with!

I was so pleased with Gathered Stems' expertise and design savoy in creating a variety of beautiful fresh flower arrangements for my sister's bridal shower.  They knew exactly what I wanted for a champagne and tea sandwiches event in celebration of a new beginning.  They incorporated bright spring colors to compliment the pastel and paisley decor; adding creative decorative touches to give it a spa-like feel.  These unique flowers arrangements transformed a bare-walled interior, that went through renovation, into an elegant, sophisticated affair among ladies who appreciate ambiance and the beauty of outdoors.  The shower was a hit and I was a happy costumer.  I went back to Gathered Stems for my holiday needs.  They were so easy to work with and so patient.  They custom designed a wreath with my favorite holiday colors, and added some unique touches of ethnic inspired ornaments, which made it stand out.  I got many compliments!
