We were so happy with our flowers! They were beautiful and exactly what we wanted. Carla had so many good ideas and made sure that special touches were added to personalize our day. The flowers were so fresh and lasted long after our wedding day. Carla made our day beautiful with reasonable prices. I was expecting to pay a lot more for what we wanted, but I was pleasantly surprised with the final cost. More...

Carla was one of the best finds of our wedding! When we went in for our consultation, she fed off of our vision perfectly.
We originally were planning on DIY'ing a few of the florals but after speaking with her, we knew our work would never measure up and the stress just wouldn't be worth it!
Something I really respected about Carla is that I had several items I wanted to add but she told me how we could repurpose some of the existing arrangements to not only save money, but make sure we didn't waste flowers. It ended up working perfectly and I was so appreciative that she went the extra mile for us.
When I walked into the venue the day of, I was blown away. The setup was just perfect and exactly what she had promised and more. We had so many compliments on our flowers! I've included a few non-professional pictures but they really don't do it justice. We had flowers everywhere and she did an amazing job. I highly recommend!!

I love Carla! She is the best at what she does. I hired her last year for my daughter's sweet 16 and this weekend she did the flowers for my wedding. Beautiful work! Great lady!

Carla is a floral genius. Having her as our florist was one of the easiest decisions in the wedding planning process. She made everything so flawless and stress free. She went over pictures with us and ideas that we had and made suggestions for types of flowers that would be in season at the time of our wedding as well as within our budget. We have a 9 month old and Carla was so welcoming of her as well when we had meetings with her...it's hard to focus with a baby around but she got it done. The flowers on our wedding day were more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Everything was a dream and 100% perfect. I highly recommend Carla for any event...anyone I know from now on that needs a florist I'm going to send her way! More...

Carla is the BEST! Booking Carla as our florist was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. The whole process was stress-free. She is so sweet and was extremely helpful during the brainstorming process. We weren't really sure what we wanted, but we had a general idea of what we liked and didn't like. She explained all of the options and in the end really brought our vision to life! We could not have been happier with the end result! More...

Carla was fantastic! Â We provided her with a few rough ideas about style, colors, and our budget and the results were tremendous. Â The bouquets, boutonnieres, ceremony flowers, and reception centerpieces were gorgeous. Â Carla even used the leftover flowers to accent the reception hall. Â We received numerous compliments about the flowers during and after the wedding. Â I could not have been happier with the outcome.In addition to great floral arrangements, Carla was also easy to work with and very responsive to questions throughout the entire planning process.

We decided to meet with Carla after meeting with a different florist first. When we met with the first florist we were expecting the meeting to be a lot of fun (we're choosing flowers, after all! ) but were disappointed when the florist seemed frustrated by our lack of plans or designs coming into the meeting. She told us to come back when we knew what we wanted. We decided to try meeting with Carla Holt instead. We came to her with our general idea (we wanted a fun, bright, and summery floral design). Carla took our vague idea and came up with a fantastic floral design that we loved! She was easy and fun to work with and we got lots of compliment from our guest on the floral design. She also gave us extra flowers so the bridesmaids could put flowers in their hair and we had flowers around the wedding cake. Overall, a great experience and I would definitely recommend Carla.

Carla did an excellent job with the flowers and centerpieces for my wedding. When I was originally shopping around for florist, I found exactly the type of arrangement I wanted for my own wedding on her website. She was very warm and accommodating in every meeting. She was easily attainable through phone or email and very flexible when setting up meetings. I appreciated that she wasn't trying to tack on anything extra but worked things around so I wouldn't have to pay extra for certain items. For example, I wanted manzanita branches and lanterns for my centerpieces. I was also having lanterns down the aisle. She worked it that I could double up on the lanterns on the aisles and move them to the reception tables after the ceremony. Unlike a different florist we looked at that had everything separated and all the centerpieces would still be rentals. That was another big reason we loved Carla, she made our centerpieces affordable because we knew our families would take the centerpieces even if we told not to. More...

The flower arrangements were absolutely beautiful! My bouquet along with my brides maids' bouquets were beautiful as well. The flowers looked fresh not old. Everything looked beautiful. I got the wrong color flowers on my cake, but mistakes happen anywhere. Flowers are expensive, but Carla makes it very easy to find the look you want within your budget by giving you a variety of options and ideas of different flowers and arrangements. More...

My wedding was on 11/16/2013. I found Carla Holt on Yelp. i did ALOT of research on florists in the same area as my venue and when i met with her, i knew she was a match for me. She was honest, realistic and helpful. Leading up to the wedding i was a little nervous because no sample bouquets were made (to save on my costs). Wedding day: she was on time, in fact i left some things for last minute and she worked with it NO PROBLEM. I was blown away at how she made our vision come to life, flowers were ABSOLUTELY perfect! Thank you Carla, i will absolutely recommend you to all my friends and family getting married in the future. More...

Carla was fantastic to work with. We had a very unique idea for our centerpieces/theme, and she took the vision we described and put a very creative and beautiful spin on it to make it a reality.
She came to the venue with us for our planning meeting to go over how everything would look. On the day of our wedding, she arrived right on time and had everything ready to go well ahead of schedule. She checked in with us and our wedding coordinator to make sure that everything was set before leaving, and she even returned at the end of the event to clean up. The flowers were gorgeous, and her designs fit our style perfectly.
She was very responsive throughout the planning process, and she was also very flexible with any changes. We thoroughly enjoyed working with her, and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a creative professional florist for their event.

Carla executed the theme my son and daughter in law had envisioned flawlessly. The kids provided some props for the table decor and Carla's execution and placement of the props was amazing. She was so easy going and captured the vision they wanted. All of this was accomplished by emails and phone calls, due to the 3000 miles between us. The flowers we fresh and beautiful. I couldn't have asked for any thing more from a florist. She was open to ideas and added input when needed. Carla was superb. More...

Carla was wonderful to work with! She was the first florist I met and I really liked her work and her sweet personality. I met with a few other florists after her and no one compared to Carla's prices and ease to work with. I was able to meet with her several times as I was still deciding which design I wanted. Carla has great ideas and is also 100% open to the bride's ideas. All the arrangements and bouquets turned out gorgeous and we received many compliments. They really are highlighted in the pictures as a beautiful accent. I highly recommend Carla Holt Floral Designs. More...

We interviewed 3 different florists before deciding to hire Carla. Once we entered her home for our free consultation, we felt at ease.
She was professional and friendly and detailed. I made several changes to our order and she was always willing to make those changes. She replied to my emails fast. She didn't try to push more costly arrangements on us either, which we appreciated. Carla loaned us items to use the day of our wedding without charging a rental fee as some florists do.
I would recommend her services to ANY of my friends (& strangers) getting married, she is a DELIGHT!

Carla Holt was an excellent florist for my wedding. It was easy to schedule appointments with her to discuss my wishes and possible designs for bouquets and table arrangements. For my bridesmaids bouquet I brought in a picture of what I wanted, and the bouquets looked great. Table arrangements looked just as we discussed.

Carla did the flowers for our wedding and she did an absolutely AMAZING job!! I seriously can't thank her enough. She really brought our vision to life.
She was so sweet, flexible, professional and extremely talented. We got SO many compliments on our centerpieces and it was all thanks to Carla. She was always available to meet up with me in person and quick to answer phone calls and emails. When I arrived at our venue and saw all the flowers set up for our ceremony (on our arbor and down the aisle) and also my bouquets it literally took my breath away. She has so many neat ideas, went through tons of pictures with us to make sure she had our vision spot on, and she has tons and tons of great props which she will perfect for each individual wedding. I would recommend Carla Holt to all my closest friends and family for upcoming weddings. She was AMAZING!
Thank you!!
