The staff at Festive Designs is top notch! The girls work hard and roll with the punches when changes need to be made last minute. They listened to what I said and totally "got it" and it was clear that making us happy was their top priority. It's a very rare thing these days that your florist and her crew see your face and stay on location until you're down the aisle...just to ensure that you are 100% happy with their work. Festive Designs does just that. She also has a small collection of rental items that were perfect for our wedding! These girls really know what they are doing and it shows!

I met with Melinda at her place of business on a day trip to the coast. I do not live in the area and she accomodated me with meeting her, sending correspondences by mail/fax/e-mail, and had everything ready and delivered for our special day. The floral arrangements and bridal bouquet were exquisite and had great detail. I loved my bouquet! Her prices were extremely reasonable and I would definitely recommend her to anyone else!

Melinda could not have done a better job! She has an incredible eye for design and is able to really read her clients and figure out what will be best for them. I was working on a budget when it came to my flowers but you would never know it. Melinda made my flowers look WAY more expensive then they were. She is talented and fair and exceeded my expectations. Thank you!!!

Melinda is so professional and so reliable, and we couldn't have been more pleased with the service or flowers that she and her staff provided at our wedding. Our bouquets and centerpieces were just breathtaking, and everything turned out BETTER than we had imagined it. Melinda was able to take our vision and really flesh it out using her expertise. She offered great advice and flexibility along the way, and everything went so smoothly on the day of - everyone was on time, everyone who should have gotten flowers DID, and everything was gorgeous. We were totally thrilled.

Melinda did a great job with our flowers for our wedding reception and the price was right! I had a very definitely view of the tone and feel I wanted for our centerpieces and Melinda worked with me to get me exactly what I wanted. It gave a great feel to the reception.

Melinda and her staff completely blew me away with what they created for my wedding flowers. I told Melinda the kind of look I was going for and what types of flowers I wanted, but when I saw them in person, i couldn't believe how gorgeous everything was, especially the bouquets and the boutonnieres. Melinda was so easy to work with- we pretty much planned everything over email- and she and her staff were so organized and well-prepared on wedding day. I highly recommend- I can't stress enough how stunning all my flowers were!

My husband and I were married at Edna Valley Vineyard in October 2010. We loved Melinda from the moment we met her! She truly listened to both of us and had lots of wonderful ideas to make our wedding unique. I believe it's important to step back and let vendors do what they do best, and Melinda did not disappoint! Her work was lovely and helped capture our goal, which was to highlight the natural beauty of Edna Valley. The flowers and arrangements throughout the ceremony locale and in the boutonnieres and corsages were gorgeous, but perhaps most fun was the petal design down the aisle. Melinda is extremely creative and warm-hearted, which is a perfect combination for her design work.

The flowers were absolutely beautiful, albeit more expensive than I expected; I was surprised at the price because I used mostly daisies, and only a few roses, and the bouquets and centerpieces were very small, but they were still very beautiful. But otherwise, Melinda is fantastic, she has great ideas, runs with any ideas you give her, and will make it look beautiful. For a cost, she will move your flowers from your wedding location to the reception location, and that way you can save some money and use those flowers twice, because they are still beautiful. Melinda also worked with me to help me lower the cost because I couldn't afford the original qoute.

Melinda and her team did my wedding flowers for my beach wedding. As a resident of Los Angeles and planning my wedding from a far, I did not have the opportunity to meet with Melinda in person until the day before my wedding. That said she was wonderful to work with on the phone and via email and was very responsive, helpful and trustworthy. Melinda not only worked with my smallish budget but she and her team came and set up as well as moved the flowers for the reception to get more use out of them. Additionally, I sent her a sample of the color I was going for and she was also able to provide the linens at a very reasonable price. I cannot recommend Melinda and Festive Designs more highly.

Bridal bouquet was a little smaller than I thought it would be for the price, but absolutely beautiful. I did have some challenge communicating colors (like champagne versus ivory), but when I let go and let her use her professional judgement, things came out well. She was very flexible to my schedule needs and came early to hand out bouquets/corsages to my wedding party taking pictures hours before the wedding, and stayed until the wedding to hand out flowers to the family. She took care of pining all boutineers and moving outdoor ceremony flowers inside to the reception afterwards, so they got full use for the price.

Melinda is the best. Her ideas are original and her talent shows in her arrangements. She is a pleasure to deal with and is professional and detailed. Her arrangements are beautiful and unique. She was the florist for my son's wedding and both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding were perfect!

Festive Designs did an amazing job on our wedding!!!! They helped us every step of the way and were very creative when I was struggling. They helped us stay within a budget without losing the beauty. They were so supportive and made sure every flower at the ceremony got used again at the reception doing the setup of them at both locations. You couldn't choose a better florist.

I can't tell you how many compliments we received on the centerpieces and bouquet. Everything at our wedding, including our guests' attire, was white, red or black. Melinda transformed our space with orchids submerged in water, white stephanotis, red and dark red roses, and my favorite addition -- black feathers in my bouquet! Festive Designs turned our venue into a warm, inviting and beautiful spot, and helped make our wedding day more amazing and beautiful that I ever imagined.Festive Designs worked hard to keep within our teeny budget - and far exceeded our expectations! Ever professional, and a joy to work with, I recommend Festive Designs to anyone. Whether you need arrangements for your wedding, a special occasion, or just want to spice up your living room - call Festive Designs.

I can't give enough stars for what Festive Designs and Melinda deserve! Melinda made the whole process ridiculously easy and had great ideas and vision. The flower style was exactly what we had pictured and the flowers themselves were gorgeous thanks to her selections and talent. We had the luck of hitting a heat wave for our special day and Melinda went above and beyond to help out and kept the flowers looking fresh. She even re-did the groom's boutonniere after the heat got to them during the photo shoot! I would highly recommend her and her team!

I planned my wedding from across the country and every step of the way Festive Designs was available to answer questions, give advice, and work with my small floral budget. Very good value and professional. Any bride who is looking for beautiful flowers on a small or large budget would be pleased with Festive Design's work!
