Gretchen went above and beyond the call of duty for our wedding … not only were her designs unbelievably gorgeous and exactly what we wanted, she even helped us manage the grouchy wedding coordinator at the church! Her expert advice, excellent people skills, and limitless creativity – not to mention her warmth of spirit! – make her a true joy. Details of the Day played a huge part in making our wedding an unforgettable day we will always treasure.

The flowers for our wedding were perfect. I brought Gretchen a ton of pictures and magazine clippings, along with some examples of the colors I wanted, and she turned it all into a beautiful series of designs. She even managed to replicate a unique corsage design for the mothers of the bride and groom, based on an example I had shown her. Her designs made the wedding I had always imagined come to life.

My ideas for the flowers at our wedding weren’t very well developed when I first met with Gretchen. I expressed my desire for a look of simplicity and elegance, and Gretchen asked all the right questions and began helping me envision what our flowers would look like. My jaw literally dropped at the sight of all she had created. Every detail was absolutely perfect, and the quality was outstanding … She was much more than a florist; she was a decorator, a coordinator, a counselor … Gretchen is a woman of grace, and her presence was a calming force in the chaos of a wedding day. I would recommend her to anyone, and have sent several friends to her as they plan their weddings. Her personal touch is priceless!

As I began to plan our wedding I had a very specific vision I wanted to create, and the flowers were a large part of that. When I met with Gretchen I shared with her pictures of the type of soft, flowing, romantic whites and greens I had envisioned. With her amazing expertise she was able to sketch for me several ideas for every part of the flower planning. I felt so comfortable with Gretchen; she was personal and understanding. On the day of our wedding I was stunned at the beauty she brought to the outside ceremony and reception. The entire day was one which revealed a romantic theme, and it was all due, especially, to her floral creations. I have, and will continue, to HIGHLY recommend Gretchen to all my family and friends.

Gretchen does amazing work. When I first met with her I knew I wanted my wedding to be different, but I didn’t know exactly what to do. She had many wonderful ideas; she is extremely creative on the spot. She knows what flowers to use and how to use them to make everything perfect. I was speechless when I saw everything she had done; at first sight the flowers were just unbelievable. People are still talking about the flowers from my wedding. I have referred her to everyone I know. She is amazing!

Kyrstie Colonna (to Anthony Chavez in Costa Mesa)

Details of the Day worked magic! I had a dream of what I wanted my flowers to look like and couldn’t find the perfect picture. I found several similar pictures and handed them off to Gretchen and she created my dream! The arrangements were so much more elegant than I imagined! She was so thorough in finding out what I wanted, she gave me other floral options to work within my budget, and on the day of the wedding, she laid everything out beautifully! Details of the Day was definitely affordable and worth every cent! The amazing gift at the end, besides the dried bouquet, was the sweet sentiment of pictures Gretchen took and mailed to me from the big day. They were the first pictures I had of my special day. I recommend Details of the Day to ANYONE and EVERYONE!

Harmony McBrayer (to Ryan Bathauer in Pasadena)

Gretchen is a joy to work with and an absolute artist when it comes to designing and creating floral arrangements. In our consultation, she was able to bring together amazing ideas on the spot and had a wealth of pictures to illustrate her vision for the flowers. She got back to me right away with a very accurate price quote, and then was willing to work with me to get the arrangements to an incredibly affordable price. On the day of, she put everything together and even came up with some last minute additions that were beautiful. I would recommend Details of the Day to anybody who wants original, beautiful floral arrangements for a fraction of the cost that you can get them anywhere else.
