From the first reach out all the way through post-wedding day, Gracen went above and beyond, easily becoming my favorite wedding vendor.
Gracen is incredibly kind, detail-oriented, talented, and gracious. Every meeting left us smiling. She brought my colorful “south of Spain summer patio” vision to life in a way that was even better than I imagined. I loved the terracotta pots and all the vibrant touches she added — she even sourced new ones to make everything perfect. My #1 priority was my bridal bouquet, and it was absolutely stunning — perfectly capturing my personality and love of flowers. It was my favorite accessory of the day, and I still have a photo of it hanging in our home and get compliments on it all the time!
Gracen spent time getting to know us, asking thoughtful questions to understand our vision and personality, and was always respectful of our time. We started with quick back-and-forth over email proposals, did one fun, extensive design call (which she offered to schedule whenever worked for us), and she followed that with a full digital mock-up of every element — tables, linens, vases, florals, and colors for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception — so we knew exactly what to expect. She welcomed all feedback and patiently incorporated my thoughts, questions, and mood boards into the overall look, making the process seamless and genuinely fun.
We also really appreciated how budget-conscious Gracen was. She was transparent about pricing, explained how different flower choices would impact the cost, and always suggested beautiful, more cost-effective alternatives when needed. It felt like she was truly on our team, helping us get the best value while still blowing our vision out of the water.
She helped with countless little design details and was incredibly generous with her time — even offering to FaceTime while we made linen and tablescape decisions to ensure everything tied together. Most other vendors I spoke with would have charged a “design fee,” but Gracen generously went above and beyond, and was as excited about the process as us.
Seeing everything come together on the wedding day was even better than I imagined. Gracen absolutely crushed it!
I had actually been following Gracen’s business since she first started (we even went to the same high school!), so it felt extra special to work with her. I’m so excited to see and cheer on all that’s to come for Everwild Floral!
