“I just wanted to let you know that I have the picture of my bouquet attached as my computer screen background and it reminds me every day that you both created the most beautiful flower arrangements for our wedding, that I have ever seen.”
“Hi Jenny and Vanessa,
So I’m not exactly sure how to start saying how incredibly blown away we were by the flowers. It was a total blast working with you two right from day one and so special to have had people that were not only fun to work with but that delivered flowers that were so far beyond our expectations. The big bouquets you created were absolutely stunning. The tent was magical. I have had so many people comment on when they were leaving and looked back at the tent it was just glowing with candle light. I couldn’t bear to leave all those flowers so I took a little bouquet and stuck it in a jar and we took it with us in the car on our honeymoon. I forgot that you couldn’t take that sort of thing across the border, but the guy shook it and said we could keep it as no bugs fell out! All the little details from the corsages to the bouquets to the hair flowers were just perfect. My only regret is that I didn’t get to enjoy them longer! You two are the best, thank you so much for being part of our wedding.
Again, thank you ssssssooooo much! ”
“Having seen the work you’ve done before, I am not the least bit surprised at how beautiful our arrangements turned out. However I was 100% impressed and so so grateful. Our choice to let you do whatever you wanted was bang on, because I couldn’t have dreamt up those centre pieces and bouquets if my life depended on it. Everyone at the wedding was commenting on the flowers, and everyone AFTER the wedding was commenting on the flowers. My godmother even tried to smuggle a bouquet back to Florida! The best part, is that we’ve dried the centre pieces and I now get to stare at them everyday at home!!! Seriously, I can’t thank you enough. Not only for providing original decor, but for also being you. Every time I talked to either of you about my wedding you gave the same enthusiasm as you did from day one. When you first get engaged everyone is so excited for you, and that drama eventually dies off. It never dies when you’re the bride, and having you two care as much as I did was a lifesaver. I love you and would (obviously) recommend you to ANYONE and EVERYONE, and already do. You’re the best!!!!!!!!! xoxox”
“I knew right away why we picked Verbena when I saw how genuinely happy you were for us…oh and the flowers were amazing!! The single girls were hoping I would throw the bouquet but it was too gorgeous to give away!”
“Thank you so much to the two of you for contributing such a big portion of our beautiful day! It was just what we wanted - simple but with a very strong impact. Thank you for allowing us to incorporate Namibia in the form of feathers and quills with the Pacific Coast driftwood and rocks. From the moment we met I knew it would all be perfect leaving it in your capable hands, the result of the flowers and decor on that day said it all. Thank you so much again!”
“Jenny and Vanessa were a delight to work with from day one. Planning a wedding in Victoria from our home in Australia was a non-stop challenge and Verbena made the process a dream. They were friendly and attentive from the get-go and completely understood my needs as a long-distance bride. The bouquets and centrepieces they created were better than we had imagined, but completely in line with what we were hoping for. We absolutely could not recommend Verbena more. The flowers ended up being one of my favourite aspects of the entire wedding! We left for home just two days after the wedding and I was as upset to leave the flowers as I was to leave my friends and family.”
“We were so absolutely thrilled with the arrangements that were so thoughtfully prepared for our wedding at the Villa. Your enthusiasm and support in creating one of a kind artistic arrangements for our wedding was very much appreciated. We found working with Verbena to be an effortless experience as upon meeting Jenny and Vanessa we knew our floral decor was in experienced hands! We feel so fortunate to have been referred to Verbena and will highly recommend them to friends and family! ”
“Working with Verbena was definitely one of the most enjoyable aspects of planning my wedding… not mention I received more compliments on our flowers than on my dress! (true story!) ”
“Thank you to you and Elaine for setting the tone with your spectacular floral’s at our tea for Justin and Colin. We loved what you did and look forward to doing it all again soon!”
“Jenny and Vanessa were wonderful to work with. They were professional, approachable, creative and very attentive. Right from the very start we knew we would not have to give our flowers a second thought. We had complete confidence in Jenny and Vanessa’s creative abilities. Jenny and Vanessa created amazing centrepieces and a stunning bridal bouquet. The flowers and presentation were beyond our expectations and made our wedding day beautiful and memorable.”
“Vanessa and Jenny are the dream team. Creative, talented and entertaining, they have a flair for designing a collective vision and turning it out into a spectacular display. The only request I made was for lots of beautiful fall colours for my wedding since I couldn’t decide on only one “theme” colour. With an eye for detail and a commitment to excellence, they transformed the courtyard at Brix into a magical display of colour and abundance right down to the bright orange and red flower petals for my walk down the aisle. Their passion for flowers and joy of life comes through from the first time you meet them. Funny and intelligent with infectious personalities they are a delight to work with and I’m so thrilled they were a key part of my big day!”
” Verbena’s Vanessa and Jenny decided early that the floral’s could not compete with all the original art in our chosen venue in the penthouse at Swans Hotel in downtown Victoria, B.C. Instead, they felt they should be sculptural and dramatic. They were. Mal was struck by the exquisite balance and design of green orchids, dark chocolate calla lilies, white roses and white lisiantus.”
“The bouquets in the main rooms were stunning and the mantle above the fireplace, in front of which we were married, spilled over in exquisite white blooms with arching greenery and eucalyptus. My bouquet rested on my arm, a rich array of white and deep chocolate long-stemmed calla lilies with looped reeds, wrapped in heavy burgundy ribbon. Each of our six daughters carried a single calla lily bound in deep burgundy ribbon. The boutonnieres were a simple explosion of curves, deep chocolate calla lilies, white roses for the sons-in-law and white-rose posies for the granddaughters.”
“Not only were the flowers more than we could wish for, suggestions, help and support were provided at every turn throughout the planning and the event. We’re delighted and overwhelmed, and could not endorse their work more highly. ”
“Jenny and Vanessa bring centuries of passion for flowers and intuitive client skills to planning floral decor for us or for our clients. Their interest in understanding the big picture to ensure the floral’s truly work for the event is unparalleled and refreshing. Did I mention their sense of humour and delicious love for flowers ~ you’ll never have so much fun.!”
