I submitted a request on their website to inquire qbout their services and it went into their spam box. When I called, they said they would send me information and never did. They never apologized that it went into their spam folder and couldn't care enough to email me when I asked for information to be sent to me. Disappointing.

I can't say enough good things about Bella Flowers. Ronnie was the best! He took us as a last minute consultation about a month before my wedding, and had no problems when we had to postpone 4 months due to Covid. He did everything I asked and more. My centerpieces were gorgeous, my corsages were beautiful and my bouquet was STUNNING. He even helped attach the charms I brought.

The flowers were so beautiful I wish I could just keep them in full bloom for ever. Not only is Ronnie, punctual, communicates well and sees your vision, but he quoted me $1000 less than other florists and worked with my budget with no hassles. As I was explaining what my colors looked like to him, he was pulling up all kinds of flowers to make sure the shades matched what I was looking for, and to provide me with less expensive options. Please, if you want a stress free florist option, as for Ronnie from Bella Flowers!

Our family used Bella Flora for a formal wedding and they were fantastic to work with, and produced amazing floral pieces. I highly recommend them.

Working with Suzanne at Bella Flowers (in Main Street Nursery) was the BEST decision I could have made for our wedding flowers! The flowers were one of my ultimate favorite parts of our wedding. There were requests we made to enhance the inside of our wedding venue, and Suzanne covered all the bases. our venue looked flawless. It elevated our reception room to another level, our bouquets and bouts, CENTERPIECES, mantle displays & ceremony trellis were PHENOMENAL-- her work was stunning. Nowadays, people do so much decorating for weddings.

It was completely unnecessary to add anything to our "decorations" besides the flowers, because the flowers spoke for themselves. We discussed not wanting the more traditional flower designs-- Suzanne's design was so unique. We had requests, and images we liked on Pinterest-- but hers blew all of those images out of the water! Some of the foliage Suzanne got, Ive never even seen before.

She was so helpful, took any question or concern without hesitation. Our wedding flowers were just unbelievable. My guests were blown away, as was I! I will 100% recommend Bella Flowers/ Main Street Nursery to anyone looking for a florist!

I would not recommend Bella flowers for your wedding. I was impressed with Christina at my initial emergency meeting as I had given another florist a down payment on some ideas. I regretted that deposit and contacted Christina and she took my and my hen fiance the next morning. I should have gone wth my gut that she is rude and short answered. She gave me a good idea for my centerpieces because I didn't want a lot of flowers but candles and ambiance.

She challenged me to find glass at a better price which I did so we didn't need her for centerpieces. As I had taken away that element her patience for me got shorter and shorter. At the week before my wedding her assistant ( which he should have his own shop as he knows the name of all the flowers and has great ideas) called me to ask about our alter arrangement which Christina never priced out. Christina a was supposedly on vacation at this point.

She blamed my mother for the miscommunication. However this guy gave me ideas to do on my own. So there goes more money for Christina. I assume as I spent less with her the less she cared. My bouquet came in loosely wrapped like she had a child do it as well as half of the boutineers. My pictures look semi ridiculous because my flowers were flipped over because they were not wrapped correctly. Christina was also very rude to my wedding planner.

My wedding planner was trying to advise on certain flowers wilt or aren't white etc just helpful tips and Christina would bark at her not to say something right in front of me. Not very professional. I would highly not recommend Christina unless you plan to spend big bucks but even then I would imagine she would be a snot anyway.

We are happy we went with a small shop rather than a big company because compared to the other place we debated, Bella Flowers wanted to know what flowers we wanted (not just a set price for which centerpieces you chose etc). Although I don't think we were a tough couple to deal with, involving our family got complicated because my MIL cared more about flowers than we did!

So props to Cristina for being able to put up with her commentary when on speakerphone. She was also flexible when we changed our mind between our first and second appointment for what we were looking for. Cristina seemed very organized and knowledgeable. Fast forward to the day of the wedding- I didn't get to see Cristina but my husband saw her hustling.

The bouquets, the altar omg, and the centerpieces were flawless, and even better than expected. It made pictures look great too. The bouquets were wrapped it beautiful satin cloth so no flowers were falling out. They didn't last really more than a day or two later but they did their job for the night and that's all that matters!

What makes a wedding reception standout and personalized? The flowers are the most important decorations for a wedding venue because it sets the wedding apart from other weddings because the flowers used are personalized according to the brides flower preferences and the colors she chooses for her wedding. Well if you are trained in horticulture or just love flowers or are totally clueless, Bella Flora is your florist.

They are the premier florist that will sit with you for hours reviewing your Pinterest pages to understand what you are envisioning and then show you examples of similar things they have done in the past to ensure everyone is visualizing the same arrangements and decor for your most important day of your life. Don't worry if you don't have a Pinterest page they will still spend hours showing you what they have done in the past and then draw up some plans for you.

They will draw up your contract documenting everything you reviewed in your initial meeting and then you will come in for a visual presentation of your arrangements for your reception tables. They have a very well organized clean warehouse that provides you with the opportunity to view vases, linens, place settings, candles, furniture etc. that might be needed to transpose your venue into the wedding vision of your dreams.

They even created a rectangular chandelier that was garnished with flowers and hanging crystals that was placed over the dance floor at the Ritz. If you just let your imagination run wild they will ensure your vision becomes a reality, they will not let you down, the flower arrangements are breathtaking. Their customer service is excellent even the day of the event if any issues arise they make sure they are corrected immediately.

Thank you Lucy Diaz Flores and Emily White for making my daughter's wedding a most spectacular, elegant, sophisticated event with all the flowers, linens, candles, table ware, furniture and that most eye catching crystal chandelier you provided. Family and friends are still talking about the head table and the chandelier; they have never seen anything like it.

Christine has an impossible job, because brides on their wedding day are very tough clients. She did everything that she promised to do and delivered everything on time and exactly how it was said to be. There were no surprises and we were really happy with the quality and looks of everything.

I am extremely disappointed with Bella's lack of professionalism and customer service. I made an appointment with Cristina via email for a wedding flower consultation last weekend. I arrived 15 minutes before my scheduled appointment, after a 2.5 hour drive from New Jersey. When I arrived, I was told that Cristina failed to put me in their calendar and they would not be able to see me.

With a halfhearted apology, they told me to come back later but I already had other appointments in the area that I wasn't going to miss for an unorganized and unprofessional vendor. I waited a couple of days to write a review about them to give them a chance to call and apologize. After all, that's what I would do if I was trying to run a successful business, but that did not happen.

In fact, after I posted a review of Bella Flowers on a popular wedding vendor review site, Bella disputed my review. Per the terms of use of the aforementioned site, my review was removed because I did not have a contract with Bella. The site could only post reviews of customers in contract with a specific vendor. I decided to post my review on yelp for two reasons: 1) to keep potential clients aware that Bella is running a shady and unprofessional business, and 2) to urge clients (especially engaged couples) to read reviews of wedding vendors on sites other than popular wedding sites, as reviews of people who had terrible experiences with the vendor will not be posted unless there is a contract.

I am sure there is plenty of other reviews Bella "disputed" and were taken down because people didn't go into business with them. At first I was just disappointed and now I'm disgusted. Shame on you Bella!

I hate to leave negative reviews but I have to be honest. My fiance and I both felt that the florist was extremely rude from the moment we walked in. She was very judgmental and had a bad attitude. We did not find her to be useful. She was very short with us and we felt very rushed. Florists are expensive and we both feel it's important to feel confident in your florist and trust their opinions and their vision; we did NOT get that from her.

I can't even begin to imagine the process of working with her up until the wedding previewing centerpieces. We originally looked at pedestals and absolutely loved them but felt they were expensive. However, after coming to Bella Flowers we realized it's much safer to spend a little more and know that you are getting what you paid for!

This was the first florist I met with to discuss flowers for my wedding, and it was a match made in heaven! I met with Ronnie, and he totally got my vision. It was as if I didn't even need to finish my thoughts, and he knew what I wanted. Our centerpieces were beautiful, lovely and huge! And my bouquet of peonies was just what I imagined. All of the bouquets and other flowers being delivered to where I was getting ready all arrived on time.

It was very easy to work with Ronnie, and I highly recommend meeting with him. He never pressured me to upsell me (ie: all high centerpieces versus half high and half low - which is what I had). Cristina, the owner, called me right after the new year to see if I had any questions or any changes; I thought that was a really nice gesture.

We absolutely LOVE working with Bella Flora for weddings & events. Their attention to detail and the quality of services they deliver is hands down the best. In 11 years of photographing weddings, we have to say that their floral arrangements have been the most amazing works of art that we have ever come across and to be able to photograph what they do makes us more excited to work with them to see what they come up with next!

Truly amazing people, truly inspiring floral artist! If you get the chance to have them do your coordination as well, ask for Jamie, she is wonderful and so sweet to work with as well! JB & DeEtte Sallee Sallee Photography

We used Bella Flowers for my daughters wedding. The final product was very pretty, but the bouquets were not what we had agreed upon. The owner was very rude to my daughter, but nicer to me - she knew I was paying the bill. She always made us feel like we were bothering her and not open to any of our ideas. This truly was the least pleasant experience of the whole wedding.

This place came recommended by my venue and when I met with the guy, he was very nice and enthusiastic. However, on the day of the wedding, everything was wrong and he just did not deliver half the things he said he would.

I am totally torn writing this b/c I really don't like to write bad reviews unless I'm sure it will help someone else. Wedding flowers are a huge investment and I think people out there deserve to hear what they may expect. Once I read Lisa G's review I knew I had to say something. The flower arrangements were beautiful. So I give the final product for the flowers themselves 4 stars.

That being said, the other 1 star review is SPOT on. I thought the owner was LOVELY before we signed the contract. After that she was condescending, moody and difficult. I think she likes what she likes and was annoyed when asked for some options. She was rude to my Husband, too. When he was asking about price breakdown, she said something to the effect of he should just pay the bill and not have an opinion. (This actually made me giggle b/c he's very sweet and everyone normally likes him.

I teased him the whole way home!) She totally could have been trying to be humorous but she acted so miserably it came off incredibly rude. Unfortunately, while the product was great, I would not recommend this company for a wedding. It's just too high stress and too expensive to deal with someone who's so unpredictable or someone who's not pleasant during a special time in your life.

I've only used them a few times, but the arrangements were well laid out and freshly done. Overall a good choice for a florist.
