I cannot say enough positive things about working with Stoneblossom. They were one of the first vendors I booked and it was the best decision. The team takes time to listen to your vision and provide you with thoughtful designs and recommendations. Their deep knowledge of the industry and the personal care they take with their clients means ensures that they bring bring you dreams to life. I had a pretty clear idea of what I wanted but Stoneblossom added in special touches and details they elevated both my rehearsal dinner and my wedding to another level. They are such a pleasure to work with and I so appreciated the amount of time they spent making sure everything was just right. Do not hesitate to book them for any event!

We were so incredibly lucky to work with Stoneblossom for our May 2024 wedding at The Chanler. Our friends and family are STILL talking about the flowers! We envisioned a bright color scheme and a whimsical design but also wanted elegant florals to match our venue and the importance of the day. Michelle and her team understood our vision perfectly from our first conversation (probably better than we did!) and helped us to achieve it with their expertise and honest guidance. We think it says something when so many of our wedding weekend memories revolve around our florals - when guests arrived to our rehearsal dinner, they were blown away by the flowers and we remember sharing a quiet laugh and thinking "just wait until tomorrow"; when the delivery truck arrived at the venue and started unloading, even my brother and dad peeked into the bridal suite to say WOW (before set up even started!); and our shared albums are filled with photos of our florals from friends and family.
Michelle is professional and so, so talented, but she's also incredibly warm, calming, and fun (and usually has her two adorable pups at meetings - an added bonus)! Her personality and leadership style are reflected throughout her entire team, which truly made for a wonderful experience working with Stoneblossom. (Shout out to her break down team - our guests enjoyed chatting with them late night!).
We will truly never forget the florals from our wedding day. We are SO happy we had the opportunity to work with Michelle and her team. Thank you, Stoneblossom!!!!!

During the wedding planning process, my (now!) husband and I each chose one piece of our wedding day aesthetic we were excited for and didn't want to settle on. For him, it was the food, and for me, it was the florals! I wanted our florals to help tell the story of who we are as a couple, and encapsulate the energy we wished our loved ones to feel in celebrating our love! We wanted FUN, VIBRANT, BOLD with a touch of moody elegance and warm romance. Michelle and the rest of the Stoneblossom team not only captured that perfectly, but were out-of-this-world kind, creative, and patient with us as we workshopped ideas for both our rehearsal dinner and entire wedding day festivities! I wanted to be (capital) STUNNED at our reception room reveal, and my face in the photo says it all! They even made a beautiful floral collar for our Cane Corso after we mentioned she would be our flower girl at our ceremony! I highly recommend having Stoneblossom make all of your event floral dreams come true and cannot thank the entire team enough for their care, time, and attention to detail to make the best day of our lives so beautiful!

I cannot recommend Stoneblossoms enough!
They handled the flowers for my wedding, and I was blown away by their creativity and attention to detail. From the very beginning, they were incredibly communicative, making sure every one of my wishes was understood and brought to life.
The end result was beyond what I could have imagined — the arrangements were stunning, unique, and perfectly matched the vision I had for the day. Every single person who left my wedding was blown away by the flowers- me included.
If you're looking for a florist who listens, cares, and delivers exceptional work, Stoneblossoms is the one!

Stoneblossom was the florist for my wedding and I wish I could give them 10,000 stars! The team was INCREDIBLE!!!! We worked with Racquel and she went above and beyond. I am someone who has a ton of questions and she answered every one of them and brought our vision to life!!! The team has extensive knowledge in planning and we were even allowed to see a mock up of our centerpieces before the wedding, which was amazing. All of our guests were truly blown away by the talent of the team. If you are a bride looking for the best florist, contact Stoneblossom. They are the best hands down!

Stoneblossom's florals were BEYOND WORDS! As a mother of the bride, who elected to personally plan every aspect of the wedding with the bride (except for day-of-coordination), we give them the highest marks in every aspect of customer service, communication, inspiration, and mastery of floral arrangement.
Walking into Rosecliff in Newport on the day of the wedding was one of the most jaw-dropping, pinch-me moments of our lives. It felt like walking into a fairy tale. The florals were so stunning from every angle and hypnotic, as well as in perfect harmony with the beauty of the venue.
We selected Stoneblossom via virtual phone calls/meetings from a distance, but then we went to Rhode Island twice prior to the wedding for in-person planning with owner Michelle Pupa and lead designer Racquel Pacella. They beautifully guided us through the process of honing in on what we wanted, inspiring us with photo examples, creative inspiration, and even natural intuition. They are delightfully passionate about what they do, and we had so much fun working with them.
We also left these meetings feeling as though we had just taken the most incredible masterclass in flowers, as they generously answered all our questions with such interesting facts and knowledge. We fell as deeply under their spell as I think the flowers they work with do! It's no question why the outcome is absolutely magical!
Throughout the process, we never felt as though we were being pushed or sold hard on anything, which was so appreciated. And whenever we mentioned that Stoneblossom was our vendor, our other vendors gushed about the amazing work that they do. Their reputation is stellar.
Flowers may not last forever, but your photos and videos of them will. Their work continues to bring us joy to this day.

After interviewing a few different florists, I decided to work with Stoneblossom for my August 2023 wedding at Belle Mer in Newport. Michelle and her team were incredible - highly responsive, extremely creative, articulate, with many resources to offer.I had presented them with a general idea of using whites for ceremony and colors for reception AND incorporating citrus (oranges) into our arrangements, and they really ran with it. I was also pleasantly surprised that they delivered the bridal party's flowers to various locations and requested on the wedding day, and that we were offered a mockup meeting prior to the big day!I was also pleasantly surprised that the centerpiece florals actually lasted overnight and we were able to display them on our brunch tables the next morning! I certainly wouldn't count on this, but a huge plus!Could not recommend this team enough!

The Stoneblossom team was a pleasure to work with and they helped make our wedding weekend a special success! Leading up to the event, they took their time working with us, answering our questions promptly, and gave their expertise in helping us build our dream wedding. From the welcome party, wedding day, to the send off brunch, every detail was spectacular and exactly what we envisioned.

Where do I even begin. Stoneblossom gave us MAGIC! My husband and I got engaged in Capri so we wanted to recreate the Amalfi Coast essence on our wedding weekend. The arch in which we got married under *contained our mothers' favorite flowers with touches of lemon yellow leading up to the big bash which was a gorgeous blend of lush greenery, sand colored roses, Bougainville and LEMONS, a lot of lemons! The team was a pure joy to work with - personal, professional, abundant talent and execution - true creative geniuses without the overblown ego. Stoneblossom will forever be our go-to for floral + event design.

Stoneblossom was incredible to work with! Michelle understood our vision from the very first phone call, and she provided a beautiful proposal document that not only made me so confident in our floral vision, but I actually used the color palettes and inspiration photos she provided throughout the rest of wedding and detail planning, because it was so stunning and useful. The team was familiar with our venue and made it so we did not have to worry about a single thing the weekend of. All our guests were absolutely wowed by the flowers—multiple people told me our event tent looked like a fairy tale! Thank you Michelle and team for such spectacular flowers.

Stoneblossom is absolutely phenomenal, and we could not be more impressed with the way our florals looked on our wedding day. My husband and I had a vague idea of what our floral preferences were for our special day, but we were seeking direction for fine tuning the details of our dream wedding vision. Michelle, Jeankarla, and the rest of the Stoneblossom team were outstanding to work with from start to finish. They were exceptionally helpful and detail-oriented during the planning process, and worked diligently with us until we were satisfied with the end result. The day-of execution by Stoneblossom was flawless; our wedding florals were set up at our venue and the bridal party received their bouquets while we were getting ready without incident.The floral arrangements at our wedding were truly STUNNING and exceeded our expectations by far. All of our guests were completely awe-struck by how marvelous the flowers looked, and they were by far one of the most spectacular and memorable aspects of our wedding day. We are so grateful to have had Stoneblossom be a part of our dreamy Newport wedding, and would HIGHLY recommend them to any other soon-to-be Brides & Grooms as well!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Stoneblossom! Michelle and her team at Stoneblossom not only made all of our floral/tablescape/decor dreams come true down to the last detail but were also such a dream to work with!!!!! We live in NJ but had our wedding in Newport and only wish we were closer so we could work with them again and again! Michelle and her team went above and beyond in understanding how we wanted the florals to look but also how we wanted to feel during each moment of our wedding and reception. We knew they would be amazing but then they blew us and all of our guests away on the day. We cannot thank them enough! (Photos by @LeilaBrewster)

The team at Stoneblossom is beyond phenomenal and completely blew us and everyone at our wedding away with their stunning work. I was truly awestruck and unable to form words when I saw how they turned our vision into pure magic. Michelle and her team don't just make floral arrangements, they create atmosphere, ambiance, and feeling. They are professional, fun, and true artists. When I say everyone, I mean everyone at our wedding commented on the florals, especially the epic head table trellis (this is your sign to do a head table trellis!!)Run, don't walk to book Stoneblossom for your event!

There really aren't enough words to describe how incredible Stoneblossom is!!! Michelle is the kindest person ever, and such a joy to work with. Communication with her and the Stoneblossom team was always very prompt and clear, and they were so much fun to collaborate with for my wedding. My wedding was in May, and the number one thing my guests are still talking about is how incredible the flowers were. I had a very specific vision, and Stoneblossom brought it to life flawlessly. From the rehearsal dinner to the bouquets, to the ceremony, and the reception tent, everything was pure perfection!!! When my guest entered the reception tent everyone started taking pictures of the tent like it was a museum because the florals were unlike anything anyone had ever seen before. Would highly recommend hiring Stoneblossom for your event!!
