The English Garden

Choosing a florist who was able to help us work within our budget proved to be a difficult task but we were so lucky to come cross The English Garden. Lacey, Cydney, and Julie were amazing from the moment I met them and made me feel right at home. They're expert advice helped me make decisions about flowers that I had no ideas about! Although I had complete faith in them, I was still slightly anxious to see the flowers since I wouldn't until the day of the wedding and I must say I was SUPER IMPRESSED! Not only were the bouquets and arrangements beautiful but they were high quality! These ladies were fun to work with, have awesome ideas, and are very professional. They were extremely flexible with me since I changed my mind almost weekly up until just a couple of weeks before the wedding! I was changing things left and right and they were 100% accommodating and helped me with a smile upon their face! We HIGHLY recommend The English Garden for your wedding or special event or maybe just to make your girl...

I originally had chosed another florist that didn't work out and was referred to the English Garden through a friend of a friend. Best thing that could've happened to my wedding. Sydney, Lacey and the rest of the gang at the English Garden are AMAZING at what they do and they really make you feel like a part of the family when you walk through the door. They really went above and beyond to make sure that my flowers and table decor was exactly perfect and they also offered help with our guest favors even though it had nothing to do with the flowers. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs floral services!

The girls at English Garden were awesome and you could tell that they were definitely interested in finding out your dream wedding ideas and super enthusiastic about their work. My first florist had booked another event the same day as my wedding and after quoting me told me they couldn't do it. That ended up being a blessing in disguise. EG made sure all my favs were incorporated into my flowers even within my budget and that meant so much. They worked with you to get things within your budget and made any necessary changes you saw fit. They did beautiful work and I have no complaints!

Everyone at The English Garden is so friendly an easy to work with. I loved the staff and the excitement they showed for my wedding. My bridal bouquet was beautiful and exactly what I wanted!

I would never use anyone except English Garden. They are kind, flexible, and truly love talking flowers! They are amazing.

Working with Cydney on the perfect look for my wedding was so much fun! She has the most amazing personality and is unbelievable at what she does. Flowers weren't exactly my thing, and she helped me develop a vision and executed it perfectly. She offered so many wonderful suggestions and so many options to help us achieve our look. She designed a plan around our budget and made sure that every aspect of the ceremony and reception were perfectly decorated. I would highly recommend Cydney and The English Garden and I can't wait until the next time I get another occasion to work with her!

Cydney has such a creative mind! Honestly, flowers were one of the smaller of my concerns. I had a small idea of what I wanted (soft ivory flowers, greens) and Cydney ran away with it and created something beautiful. My bouqet was filled with soft garden roses and some greener for a splash of color. The centerpieces at the reception were just the right touch. The tables at my reception venue were a little small so I needed a smaller centerpiece but one that wouldn't get lost. She also drove all the way from Raleigh to meet me at the venue just so we could walk through it together and get a feel for what it would look like. Wonderful florist, wonderful person!

The girls at The English Garden made me an AMAZING Red sunflower bouquet along with beautiful yellow sunflower bouquets for my bridesmaids.

Extremely kind and helpful! Very artistic in the choices of flowers and arranging! The wedding bouquets and table flowers for the wedding were absolutely gorgeous! We would definitely use their services again!!!

We looked at a lot of different florists before making a decision and went with the English Garden because we felt they offered the best service and value. They were really professional and very quick in their responses to my questions. They were also very creative and helped me bring together my overall look with flowers and linens. I enjoyed working with them very much. They made the process very easy and the end result was truly beautiful and exactly what my fiance and I wanted.

The English Garden was superb! They completely exceeded all of my expectations for my wedding. I wouldn't have changed a single thing they did. They also met with me a few times along the way for consultations to be sure they captured my vision perfectly.

If I could give Cydney and her staff at The English Garden a rating higher than 5 stars, I would. I tend to be a bit of a control freak, and the flowers for our wedding were pretty high on the priority list for me. Complicating matters was the fact that we were working with a small budget. Having seen Cydney's work at my sister's wedding, I knew I wanted her to work her magic on ours. Despite my natural tendency, the only criteria I gave her was color. I left all of the other details to her - flower types, table arrangements, etc. What she gave us was truly breathtaking. It started with the orchids for my hair in a beautiful purple that I'd never seen before, was followed by the bouquets bursting with gorgeous flowers in every shade of purple imaginable, and ended with the reception arrangements - subtle, but lovely collections of small glass vases on each table filled with a variety of purple flowers, floating candles and votives. For someone who's loved purple since she was old enough to distinguish the color, it was a dream come true. I should mention that everyone I met and dealt with at the shop was fantastic. Even if you don't deal with Cydney directly in every interaction, you're in very capable hands. I can't wait to come up with another excuse to call on The English Garden's floral genius!

Cydney and her team are absolutely wonderful to work with! She helped create a beautiful vision for our wedding, and everything turned out perfect! Cydney is passionate about what she does, and it translates into her flowers. The details she focused on were just wonderful, I would recommend The English Garden to anyone!

Cydney and her team were great to work with. She is someone who is so passionate about what she is doing, that you know your flowers are going to be perfect. I am not really a flower person, but I found pictures online that I liked and took them to her. My flowers for the wedding party as well as the venues were perfect. They were so beautiful, and actually were still alive and beautiful over a week later after we got back from our honeymoon. I would definitely recommend using them for ANY event especially a wedding!

I had a very small wedding, so at first I had thought of not even getting a professional bouquet done, but my mom insisted. I went to one florist near my work and they basically blew me off, I suppose because I only needed a few bouquets. My mom told me to call The English Garden. She was familiar with the English Garden through her work, because her company uses them for all their corporate flowers and big events. When I called, I was expecting to probably get a low key response like I did from the first florist I tried, but instead Julie was warm and welcoming to me on the phone. She recommended that I come in for a consultation. I met with Cydney, the owner, who professionally helped me work my way through all the available options. I was not an easy bride because I had no idea what I wanted, but Cydney patiently helped me pick a beautiful combination of flowers and really helped me form a true opinion about what I liked and didn't like. We talked through a variety of ideas that comfortably fit within my budget. Cydney was so responsible with how we budgeted for my flowers and she really helped me make wise choices that got me the biggest bang for the buck. The end result was perfect. The flowers were simply amazing and I could not have been happier. From the very beginning, the English Garden treated me like their most important and valued client as if my wedding was a large scale platinum one. Regardless of your wedding size, you should check out the English Garden. They are far and away the best florist in Raleigh.

Stupendous! Amazing! Fabulous! There are not words adequate to describe Cydney and her staff and the amazing work they did for our wedding. It was beyond our expectations but not beyond our budget. We could not have asked for more. In particular, I wanted a unique variety of rose and Cydney painstakingly worked to make sure that I had exactly what I wanted.

I was very pleased with the English Garden. They understood my vision and executed in a beautiful manner.

The English Garden was awesome! They made my wedding bouquet as the bridesmaids bouquets, boutonnieres, and wrist corsages. We gave them a budget which they stuck with while providing outstanding service! They were very communicative and the flowers were of amazing quality. They lasted all day and night without drooping and everyone commented on how beautiful they were!

Cydney was excellent and created a perfect floral arrangement for our wedding well with in our budget.

Cydney is great! She is very creative and good at what she does. I plan on using them for all of my flower needs now.
