Makrancys florist did a fabulous job for Natalie’s wedding, December 18, 2021! Working with Karissa was very easy, and on wedding day, exceeded our expectations. We provided lots of photos for ideas of what Natalie like for all her flower needs, and Karissa was able to pull them all together, and again, exceed our expectations.
They certainly have talent, experience, and expertise in their business!

Janet Makrancy and her team did an absolutely amazing job and truly helped make our wedding day as the special day we hoped for. Everything turned out beautiful, from the floral arch design at our alter to the table center pieces and everything in between. We chose a somewhat un-traditional location for our day and they took a blank canvas of a space and transformed it into an amazing venue. They were extremely easy to work with right from the start and accommodated all of our wishes and requests without hesitation. We had complete confidence in the team and they far exceeded our expectations.

Janet & Team are beyond amazing to work with. I have personally worked with her on everything from large galas to smaller intimate events. They are creative and will work to meet your budget. In addition, their decor for events always leave guests amazed by the "experience" that they create! It's ALWAYS a fun collaboration to work with Janet Makrancy's Weddings & Parties!

We worked with Janet and her team for our wedding at TPC Jasna Polana. Karissa, our coordinator, was super responsive and very communicative during the whole experience. She listened to what we envisioned and was able to compile our dream arrangements into real life. All the arrangements that were created for our wedding were, without a doubt, beautiful. The team did a phenomenal job with each and every detail and all of our guests (and the staff at the venue) were full of compliments. On the day of the wedding we even had to add an extra table and centerpiece. Without any hesitation or question

I called Janet Makrancy's Wedding & Parties based on their good reviews. I had no idea how or if they could decorate an old battered park pavillion that my daughter chose to use for her "wedding dances in the park" (dances at a wedding reception hall were discouraged due to COVID). Karissa was wonderful from my first phone call through the whole process. I sent her a terrible picture of the pavilion and she took the reins (along many repeated phone calls from me asking for reassurance that is would look nice). She took my budget and made a stunning white, illuminated scape that is only partially

Janet Makrancy's Weddings & Parties did the floral decor, and arrangements for the bride, groom & bridal party for my wedding on 11/1/20. Karissa was so helpful and responsive throughout the entire process. Janet gave me honest feedback about the flowers I wanted and everything was beautiful! I hope to work with them again in the future!

Janet, Danielle and the whole team at Janet Makrancy’s Weddings and Parties were amazing. The flower arrangements were outstanding and everyone attending our daughter's wedding commented on how beautiful they were.

We absolutely loved their work! My bouquet, the centerpieces, cake flowers, and the decorations on the gazebo were all more perfect than we could have ever asked for. We were beyond impressed with Janet, Danielle, and everyone involved with our wedding decor. We would definitely recommend Janet to anyone looking for floral design...she is an absolute artist!

We loved our floral design at our wedding. We got married at my parents' house in Princeton and Janet and Danielle were great about working with the natural beauty of the property and the design of the house to enhance the special venue. I truly appreciate that they listed to what we wanted, didn't try to oversell us on things we didn't want or need and asked a lot of specific questions to make the process so much smoother. They also helped us create an amazing tree filled with handmade paper "lovebirds" that my mother-in-law designed and a magical backyard huppah under a lit tree that photographed
