Blue Vessel Wedding Florist -

Destinee was absolutely amazing for our wedding. Our flowers turned out better than i pictured and everyone commented on how pretty they were. Loved the flowers for our arch in particular and the bridal bouquets were gorgeous! 10/10 recommend!

Destinee failed to deliver flowers for my friend’s wedding. I arrived to pick up the floral arrangements within my allotted timeframe (between 11am-noon) on the wedding day - at Sagebrush Fields Mercantile - and I was informed the floral arrangements were not finished. Half of the arrangements (bride’s bouquet, bridesmaids bouquets & greenery) were delivered to me after over an hour of waiting (1pm). Destinee let me know the florist would drop off the remaining arrangements (boutonnières, wrist corsages and several carnation garlands for the arch) in time for the ceremony. When I asked what time the arrangements would be delivered to the church, she responded aiming for 3pm. The wedding ceremony began at 3:30pm, 40 minutes away from Leadville. By 3:15pm, with guests arriving and being asked to wait in the foyer since the arch was undecorated (missing carnation garlands)- still no floral arrangements. We instead picked wildflowers and pulled branches off aspens outside of the church to wire to the arch. It was 3:30pm, guests were seated and still no floral arrangements. The flowers did arrive, after 3:30pm, in time for the groomsmen to get their boutonnières while waiting to enter the ceremony.

Unprofessional. Inconsiderate. And I’m sad for my friend.

This florist did not do a single thing right for my friend’s wedding. After ample communication, the florist had nothing ready in time. Bridal bouquet and bridesmaids bouquets were very very late and were both not at all like the bride had chosen and paid for. Bridesmaids bouquets had the colors all wrong, ribbon wrong, and were way smaller than what was paid for. Bridal bouquet was half the size she asked for. Sadly after the ceremony most of the flowers had wilted (like after just an hour). Boutonnières, garlands for reception decor, and ceremony flowers were forgotten. Boutonnières happened to arrive later- other items did not - but after the ceremony started so it was no use. Very unprofessional! Would not recommend!

We purchased loose flowers and my bouquet from Blue Vessel Florista for our wedding. They turned out beautifully! There were a few items that didn’t come in in great condition from their vendor but they worked to replace those items and made some adjustments to my bouquet so that it better fit the style that we had originally agreed upon. We recommend Blue Vessel and enjoyed working with them! (All photography is by Brogan Resch Photography)

My best friend was beyond excited to work with blue vessel for her dream wedding, however blue vessel let her down entirely. The flowers were not ready when they were supposed to be causing a delay for the entire wedding day. This was booked well in advance so there is no excuse for not having an order completed for a WEDDING. Boutonnières and corsages were dropped off as the wedding party is getting to walk down the aisle, therefore another delay, and the flowers are absent from the wedding photos since they were late. The amount of stress this caused alone for the bride and bridal party is extremely upsetting. When the flowers did arrive they were not what the bride asked for at all. You could tell Destinee did not take anytime to prepare for this and threw this together at the last second which is completely unacceptable and beyond unprofessional. The fact that several important details were completely disregarded makes me question this business and their motives. A florist typically spends time ordering, arranging and making sure things are perfect for weddings knowing that they will be featured in almost every photo. This was NOT the case for my friend at all. The brides bouquet was not as advertised at all and looked rather small and also thrown together at the last minute. Really disappointed in this business. I do not recommend blue vessel for a wedding or any significant event.

If you are looking for a florist for your wedding I can’t recommend Blue Vessel enough. My bouquet was only of my dreams and our arch was so original and unique. I asked for a flower comb and got something I couldn’t have imagined. Original, thoughtful, inventive- I'm so lucky!

Very disappointed in Blue Vessel and her flowers for my best friend's wedding. The bride was very specific with her requests for her wedding day and the florist didn't tell the bride that the flowers would be different than she ordered.

1. When the point of contact (Megan) arrived to pick up the florals on the wedding day, none were there.
When the florist finally arrived, all she had completed were the bridesmaids and bridal bouquet. The bride communicated multiple times about flower pick up time and the florist never indicated it being an issue.
2. The boutonnières and mother’s wrist corsages arrived 5 minutes before bridal party walked down the aisle. Because they were so late, the boutonnières were not in any of the getting ready or first look photos.
3. The carnation garlands didn’t make it in time for the wedding. They were supposed to be draped over the arch at the ceremony site. Instead, friends of the bride had to pick wildflowers to drape over the arch.
4. The wrist corsages were made with blue ribbon. The bride specifically requested no blues or purples - only the wedding colors: light pink, burnt orange, deep gold, olive, and off-white.
They were tied with chocolate brown ribbon. They looked nothing like the boutonnières Blue Vessel advertises on her website and Instagram.
5. The bridesmaid bouquets were not made with the greenery the bride discussed with the florist. They were significantly smaller than what Blue Vessel advertises on her Instagram and the flowers were not the colors the bride asked for.

The wedding day was BEAUTIFUL but the florals didn't match the wedding because of Blue Vessel's disregard for what the bride asked for.
