I couldn't have better things to say about Anthony and his team. Throughout the planning process, Anthony was attentive, organized and resourceful. He provided many helpful tips and did a great job coordinating a timeline with the photographer, DJ, etc. I am grateful, he made our wedding day much less stressful. With a later wedding time, couldn't set up the venue myself. Place looked wonderful and received numerous compliments. I would recommend him to anyone.

My sister just got married this weekend, and the show truly could not go on without Anthony. He is a miracle worker, and I will suggest him to ANY bride getting married in Des Moines. My family, the wedding party, the groom’s family, and I can’t thank you enough for all of your help, Anthony! Saley, the flowers were stunning. Sarah, you were calm and awesome. Wish I could rate more than 5 stars.

My daughter's wedding was last week and involved planning for a large wedding (300). We started meeting with Anthony and his floral designer Saley 10 months in advance. He is always acessible, follows up on all requests, and is professional every step of the way! The bride changed plans with some of the arrangements and Anthony did not blink an eye and supported her decisions with outside vendors.
In addition it RAINED during the entire day and we all were "mentally prepared" but Anthony saved the day in many ways. He shopped and purchased a clear umbrella for the bride and groom's first look
