I cannot express enough how incredible my experience was with Melissa! From the moment I first contacted her about our wedding, I was met with so much warmth, professionalism and kindness - we vibed instantly and I knew she was the only person I wanted to be a part of our special day. What truly touched my heart (and made me cry!) was the beautiful card she wrote me that she included when she hand-delivered my bouquet to our hotel room. It was such a thoughtful gesture that showed how much she cares about her clients and their stories. The attention to detail was extraordinary; she even included a specific type of rose in my bouquet that holds such special meaning! Melissa took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life in the most breathtaking way!! The arrangements were not only stunning but also perfectly matched the inspiration board I sent her. On the day of the wedding, everything was set up flawlessly and looked absolutely beautiful. If you're looking for someone who goes above and beyond, look no further than Lunaluxe! I wholeheartedly recommend her for any occasion!! Thank you so much Melissa & Liv for your incredible talent and making our wedding day unforgettable!! We love you guys!! xoxo

From our first intro phone call, we knew that Cullen Creations was the perfect fit for our floral/decor vision. Heather’s “wedding design” package was a bonus that originally we didn’t even know we wanted, but as soon as we saw that option, it perfectly fit our wedding planning dream - we talked with Heather about our vision, and then we were able to choose exactly how involved we wanted to be in certain details, while she provided guidance on those and handled all the rest. Heather is so creative, thoughtful and detail-oriented - her expertise about florals and decor setup was on full display both on the planning side as well as, of course, on the wedding day itself.

Awarded Best of Zola
First of all - the end product was just beautiful. Everything from the bridal bouquet to the ceremony flowers to the table styling was exquisite and super unique. Shannon did a great job incorporating my favorite color (yellow) and a whimsical, organic wildness into the design exactly as I had hoped. From our first meeting to the written proposal, Shannon interpreted my thoughts and ideas exactly. I was so impressed that she took my ramblings and half ideas and pulled them together into what I was seeing in my head. Shannon’s GORGEOUS color palette informed the entire wedding design and gave me a jumping off point for invitations, bridesmaid dresses, other decor, etc. Unfortunately, the process of working with Shannon was a bit challenging. She struggled with nailing down details: incorrect number of tables, inconsistent accounting of candles/bud vases, etc. It took a number of incorrect proposal drafts until we got it right - just weeks before the wedding. We were honestly quite disappointed by Shannon’s flexibility and communication. She self-describes as being highly collaborative, but that was not our experience. First, as beer nerds, having hops in the design was super important to us, and while she flagged early on it could be an issue to source real ones, we discussed using fake. While we all agreed that she shouldn’t use fake hops if they looked bad, we were sad to see on the day of that they didn’t make it into the design. It would have been nice to have heard a heads up from her that she didn’t plan to use them - even if it was just a brief mention on the day-of. Second, when our cake plans fell through at the last minute, we asked Shannon if she could possibly supply a few flowers for our small 6” cutting cake. She told us she would try, but later we heard from the bakery that she had given them a flat no. She never communicated her decision to us. Thankfully, the bakery pulled something together for us (shout out to Zest Pastry!). Third, the Monday before the wedding, Shannon sent an alarming email with the subject line “Head Advisory, Oh No!”, asking us what our plan was. Getting any email titled “Oh No” isn’t fun to receive less than a week before your wedding. Further, as a trusted wedding vendor, we would hope that she would have plans for weather or unexpected events rather than looking to us during a very stressful period. Lastly, (and most disappointingly) despite having a run of day schedule, Shannon was nowhere to be found when it was time to put on boutonnieres and corsages. Our photographers and party thankfully jumped in to help to avoid major delays to portraits (shout out to Katie Slater!). Fundamentally, the product Shannon provided was beyond compare - everything was beautiful. That said, the communication, coordination, and organization were lacking from our experience.

My love of art and nature have led me to where i am today. I thrive when I can create and to be able to make a work of art with flowers, truly brings me a great joy. I want to bring your visions to reality through flowers on your special day or exciting events. Over my years of training in both traditional art and floral design I have developed my own personal style that is anything but traditional, but more so unique- just like all of us. Perla, which is French for pearl, was my Grandmothers name, is my middle name, and the name I give to my passion I hope to share with you.

Perla Fleur was an exceptional florist for our wedding. From the moment we first met with Rebecca and her team, we knew we were in good hands. They were incredibly kind, receptive to all of our ideas, and went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. The floral arrangements they created were truly breathtaking - we received endless compliments from our wedding guests on the ethereal and elegant look they achieved.
