Vicky did my florals for my wedding and she completely exceeded my expectations! Im typically type b, and have a hard time making concrete decisions. When it came to my overall floral aesthetic, i didnt know where to begin. Everything on Pinterest looked so beautiful. I sent Vicky my mood board and let her take the wheel - let me tell you, she 100% delivered. We discussed my budget and decided that silk flowers would be the best choice. I was a little hesitant and afraid it would look cheap, but it was the absolute opposite! Dont get me wrong, of course up close you can tell they aren't real. But you can tell her product is of great quality. When i looked at my venue in whole, i couldnt even tell. The florals photographed so beautifully! Im glad i trusted her with the decision to go this route to save me a pretty penny. Vicky was able to work within my budget to bring my vision into reality. I cant be more grateful of the turn out. Just got my sneak peeks in and im swooning over how everything looks.

I got married 2 weeks ago and I was very satisfied with the flowers, decor, and overall details of my wedding, thanks to Vicky! 10 years ago she was my brother's one stop shop wedding vendor and that time she was already so good at what she does. 10 years later, her skills and passion with wedding decor stretched far beyond my expectations! Yes, it is true Vicky is very busy at times but once the event dates gets closer she will put her undivided attention to your event and ensure your vision will come to life. She listens, provides helpful suggestions, and is truly knowledgeable with wedding aesthetics. I've received so many compliments after the wedding from friends and family and it makes me so very happy I chose Queen Bridals! Thank you Vicky for the amazing memories!!!

Vicky is the best wedding planner anyone can ask for. She did a fantastic job with floral arrangements and had the best photopragher/videographer. My wife and I are so thankful to have her as our wedding planner. As she made our big day extra special and unforgettable. The whole process was smooth sailing, leading to our big day. She has excellent prices for all your wedding needs, from renting out wedding gowns to men suits. I highly recommend Queen Bridals!!!!

Finally had my wedding 2 weeks ago (July 9, 2022) and now I can write a review. For the most part, everything went well. The floral centerpieces all looked beautiful and turned out nice. We also rented chiavari chairs, green hedge back drop with string lights, bride /bridesmaid bouquets, boutonierres, table linens, bar tables, indoor drapery, and got cake from them. We loved the strawberry and coconut pandan flavors. It's less sweet compared to American bakeries. Cake comes with champagne flutes, cake knives, and cake stand. Vicky gives her best advice to you when you ask questions. The only mishap during my wedding was somehow the throw bouqet I asked for wasn't there on when I had to do the bouquet toss, but she refunded the $66 back to me. We had to improvise and my bridsmaids made a small bouquet our of their bouquets and tied with a hairband lol....Also the bouquets didn't look that fresh. There was yellow and brown spots on flowers. The main thing is the communication with Vicky was a bit difficult at times. She is very busy. But I heard that she has 2 jobs...Also make sure you have copies of the contract! My friend said they didn't get a copy and that Vicky lost it...So they were not charged the original pricing. They weren't happy about that. But the price is one of the best around here.

Oh my goodness, we just got married this past weekend and let me tell you.. Vicky and her team EXCEEDED our expectations. I had her do the decor for both my ceremony and reception, as well as the florals. EVERYTHING was BEAUTIFUL and everyone was in awe. They transformed dynasty into a winter wonderland themed wedding and it was beyond gorgeous.

Vicky is awesome! My wedding plan was changed 100% due to the pandemic and I feel so lucky to have Vicky as our decorator. She went above and beyond with us to make sure everything is perfect. My wife and I were so impressed with her from the initial consultation, and after that, we did not regret anything. I love that she always prepares before our meeting and suggests what she thinks the best. I must say my wedding was the tough one for her because of the wrong measurements, change of location, multiple places, etc. but somehow she got it done beautifully. She and her team even stayed late and started early on my wedding day to get everything done. I couldn't thank her enough for what she did for my wedding. You get what you paid for, but I believe I scored the best deal of my life to have Vicky for my big day.

Vicky was an amazing florist for our wedding and she did an absolutely wonderful job in executing our vision of floral design and table décor on our wedding day. When my husband and I first met her in person, we immediately connected with her and we found her so friendly, down-to-earth, and accommodating - which are all the characteristics we wanted in a wedding vendor. We wanted to find a professional florist who was knowledgeable and reliable, and we knew she was the one when we met. She exceeded our expectations when we saw how everything came together! Our vision for floral was minimal décor and arrangements that would help minimize costs. She completely understood and offered creative solutions to work within our budget. Our wedding was in October at Nestldown (which is already a beautiful outdoor venue in itself) and she was able to work with my vision of floral bouquets, as well as, provide a cohesive vision with the reception, including the sweetheart and guest tables, that went with our dusty blue theme. We decided to only to do bouquets, boutonnieres, and table décor and we found her price to be very reasonable. She was also a local vendor too, which made it very easy to meet up multiple times for consultation. As a bride walking into the reception area on the day of and seeing how everything is set-up and on time was one of many moments that I'll always remember that day - relief, joy, and excitement. One of the many fears as a bride is just something going wrong or late on the wedding day and Vicky helped put us at ease that she will do her part and she and her husband really did do a fantastic job! For us, we wanted to hire a professional florist to do all the set-up and floral arrangements rather than having relatives or friends because the day goes by so much smoother and everyone can be more relaxed and enjoy the wedding day as well. Honestly, I was hesitant to hire a wedding florist at first, but it is worth the money for the less stress and time trying to do DIY, transporting décor, decorating on the day of and all that extra, messy coordination in between. While it may be cheaper to do DIY, time is much more valuable and I would rather spend that time hanging and dining out with friends and relatives (especially those coming from far distances) than having a workshop of friends/family making décor several days prior to the wedding day. With everything else to plan and coordinate for, floral arrangements was just one less thing to worry about on our wedding day, and we absolutely did not regret hiring her as our wedding florist. We trusted Vicky and we highly recommend her services to anyone else who is looking for a vendor that is extremely professional, dependable, and can do beautiful work. Thank you to both Vicky and her husband for helping make our wedding day go so smoothly and enhancing our wedding day photos with your gorgeous floral arrangements!! : )

Vicky is a wonderful florist. In addition to doing my bridal and bridesmaids bouquets, she went above and beyond to create wonderful bouquets for our ceremony. She helped with other accessories such as the aisle runner, columns for our ceremony flowers, vases, table candles, and was so thoughtful about sprinkling flowers in places throughout our whole wedding venue. I did not have a coordinator so Vicky's help with the extras made it easier for me. It really exceeded my expectations. Vicky also worked within my budget and made it very reasonable. She had clever ideas such as repurposing our ceremony columns to the dining area, and bouquets for our long dining table flowers. There are other things she repurposed as well which reduced waste and cost :). As with any wedding vendor, be super clear on your requests, review the invoice, and Vicky will deliver. I was not clear on wanting a flower headband for Vicky and didn't check the invoice carefully the week leading up, and she tried to accommodate on that day. I found Vicky to communicate quickly through text and we visited her at her shop twice.

First off if you are a bride reading the reviews to see if this company is a right fit for you, you have to consider that every brides' expectations and needs are different. I see such a vast range of opinions on Vicky's work, and as a bride who ended up using Vicky and was so satisfied, I feel you have to see and talk to her yourself about your day and plans and get your own feeling. My wedding was in March, I was last minute searching for a florist and although I got quotes from 3 other florists with lower prices (while each person I got quoted from the price went higher not lower). I ended up going with Vicky, because after our meeting I felt I could trust her work and my wedding would look beautiful. The other florists 2 were one stop shop type places so they didn't have much inventory to show and get the flowers wholesale before the wedding so you don't see what you will get. The last florist I didn't chose them because they showed a book of pictures for cakes that were old pictures and although they had real flowers at the store you couldn't get a feel for what would be displayed on the wedding day. The 3 vendors I didnt chose wanted me to bring in pictures of things I liked and how it should look in your imagination. As much as I wanted to draw the map for the vendors to do the work, I had no time juggling many other things with wedding being last on the list (but last not by my choice, but by my other obligations). I went to see Vicky a good handful of times because I was on the fence about vendors I ultimately wanted to choose. She delivered beautifully for me and the same year I saw her work for some other wedding and it was pretty then also. Let her know as much of your expectations and she will do her best to make those wishes come true

Vicky and her husband did an amazing job decorating and providing flowers for our wedding! She helped us on short notice and exceeded our expectations! We had numerous compliments about how the place looked. I would recommend Vicky to anyone looking for a true professional who will go above and beyond for her clients! Thank you again Vicky !

Before we came to Queen Bridals, we meet with many other wedding décor places. One place said to pay them a flat rate and they will take care of "EVERYTHING". What exactly is everything? How do I know what you will do and won't do? The reason we chose Queen Bridals (Vicky and her hubby Vince) was their invoice setup. It was detailed. Line-by-line items were listed. It might seem too clustered at first, but you need to take time to absorb it. Weddings have hundreds of moving parts and if one item is overlooked, it could spell a disaster. You also need to realize that Vicky has only hours to setup your venue. So she needs to account for every chair and napkin. Some Yelp reviewers have commented that she is charging for every little thing. Well that is true, but it also states that she is through and needs to create a "WAR PLAN" for the day. I made the final decision to hire her because I was paying for "her eyes" at the venue. I saw that she has an eye for this stuff and she kept with the current trends. It was great seeing her at my venue doing the finishing touches. I commissioned Queen Bridals to decorate my venue. This included pipe and drape, chair covers, sweetheart table, check-in table, photo back group, cake table, white dance floor, flowers for the church, flowers for the restaurant, the cake, and other things I may have forgotten. I wanted Vicky to make ALL of these things have synergy. In other words, they needed to look like they belong together. It's sad to see people hire a décor and then do a paper walkway on their own or do the cake table on their own. It doesn't match because it's two different designers at work! The Bride and Groom are solely responsible for everything that happens at a wedding, so they need to divide the responsibilities up into competent teams. We were careful not to assign too much responsibility to one specific vendor. Thus, Vicky handled the décor of the Church and the Restaurant. She has great ideas and ways to save money by re-using the perishable flowers in any way possible. Vicky was my first stop (8am) on my wedding day. She was ready for me when I got there. Only a few labels needed to be made and only a few minutes were lost. She made the church beautiful and the venue as well. I had many compliments on both places! I was very happy. We had a wedding invitation made with a flower theme and we told her to follow that style and she did. I think the discovery process for your wedding is important and it is a team effort on both sides (you + your vendor). The vendor knows what to do, but often the Bride and Groom are clueless on the end results. So make an appointment with Vicky and spend the time needed to get things in line. You should make at least two sessions. One session to get to know her and talk about the budget and what you want. Then another session later on to make significant or little changes. I had success with Queen Bridals and I hope you do too! Thank you for reading this long review. If you read it to the end, then I think you will have some more background in deciding if Queen Bridals is right for decorating your venue. We are very pleased with the end results. Vicky and Vince are easy to work with and hard working. They understand Catholic and Vietnamese traditions. They will have no trouble with simpler American style weddings. They also have tons of contacts. We ask Vicky to recommend us an MC that was mature and knew how to address a Traditional Vietnamese crowd. He was awesome too! Thanks Vicky! We hope your business grows and we love the passion you bring to the table! -N&L Sept 2018! P.S. for new wedding couples! Take the time to plan together with your spouse. Educate yourself! Throwing money at your wedding will not guarantee success. Know who will be the majority VIPs at your wedding (i.e. your parents and elders) and cater to their expectations. You cannot please everyone and we decided our wedding was a celebration for our parents and not

We came across Queens Bridal through a friend recommendation. Vicki was fantastic to work with! She demonstrated professionalism, knowledge, and calmness every time we spoke with her. We were VERY IMPRESSED with all the floral decorations that she provided. A lot of our family and friends commented on how beautiful all the decorations were. Her team were able to set up and take down all the decorations within the tight time constraints we had. My mother also rented items for the tea ceremony from her and was very happy with Vicki. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Queens Bridal.
