For as long as I can recall, I have loved weddings. I loved everything about them, but mostly how pretty and extravagant they could be. I remember playing wedding dress-up with my sister as a child: I was always the bride, she was always the bridesmaid. My grandmother, a seamstress, fashioned a veil for me and I used plastic flowers I’d found in her living room for a bouquet. As I got older, those plastic flowers were replaced with real ones, and weddings became a significant part of my life’s work. I enjoy designing beautiful things, and this is especially true of weddings!
My floral career began when I took a job at a local flower shop at age 15. I was always interested in everything about flowers, including how beautiful they were and the art of designing. This led me to a degree in Horticulture and other endeavors in the floral industry, including working for celebrity floral designer Ed Libby. I eventually moved on to other wedding related ventures, always with a connection to my floral roots. I established Laurelwood in 2001, and since then it has grown to be a trusted name in the industry. Please take some time to review our past work and beautiful floral creations. I hope you will visit us soon!

Let me just say, Laurie and her team absolutely KILLED IT. Hands down, above and beyond. The number of guests we had that commented on how absolutely gorgeous our florals were… we all lost count. A few guests even said that they had literally NEVER seen such gorgeous florals ANYWHERE. Laurie is easy to work with, eager to make tweaks and changes to fit your vision and offer her opinions, and reasonably priced. Flowers are expensive, no doubt. However, Laurie is an absolute ARTIST and you are 100% getting the best of the best at a competitive price. I also love that Laurie has done the Indian Trail Club so many times. Laurie was able to tell me exactly what I needed and didn’t need at the venue and made my job sooooo much easier when it came to planning. She communicates with ITC and you really don’t have to do anything other than take a deep breath and trust that you’re in excellent hands with Laurie and her team at Laurelwood Designs. They even handled some significant communication issues with our church like true professionals and got the job done there as well. We would love to work with Laurelwood again in the future!!!

Laurie was amazing from the start, where i did not know much about florals but knew my style, inspiration, and budget. She worked with me on all 3, with no surprises the day of. Her team designed an absolutely breathtaking arrangement from the church to sweetheart table, centerpieces, and of course the gorgeous bouquets for myself and my bridesmaids. I am still receiving compliments from guests on how stunning the florals were. I was so lucky to have her, making my vision board come to life - exceeding my expectations!

All I can say is that I am forever grateful that I came across Laurie & chose her as my florist! To say Laurie knocked it out of the park would be a complete understatement. Laurie is the sweetest, most creative person and took hours out of her week to talk and meet and plan with me to make my dreams a reality! Laurie took complete creative control, and I trusted her with my vision. She did not miss a single detail, and it was the most gorgeous day I could have ever imagined. She really was the MVP of our wedding day, and the best decision I could have ever made.

I am so happy that I booked Laurelwood Designs. From the moment we stepped into her shop to initially meet her I felt like family. Laurie was wonderful to work with, she understood what I was envisioning for my wedding. The flowers were just absolutely gorgeous from the centerpieces, to the fireplace, our cake, and cocktail decorations. Every detail exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend using Laurelwood designs, you will not be disappointed!!

Laurie went above and beyond for our wedding flowers and design. From the beginning, Laurie took her time to listen to every single detail, concern, and idea. Our wedding décor looked right out of a magazine, and I was literally at a loss for words at how immaculate all the flowers and décor looked. Laurie truly works MAGIC! Laurie is a consummate professional and her talent is unparalleled. Thank you Laurie for creating such a beautiful atmosphere for our wedding!

Laurelwood Designs was the second florist that I met with on my vendor-hunt and I instantly knew she was the florist for us. She provided pictures and physical floral samples of what she had to offer. We talked through my vision and she seemed to instantly bring it to life through her creative mind. Every arrangement was STUNNING. I am consistently asked who my florist was for our wedding because Laurelwood is simply incredible. The flowers were exactly what I asked for. I couldn't recommend Laurelwood Designs enough!

Working with Laurie was a given after she did my sister's wedding. She was so wonderful to work with and she completely brought everything to life. I knew I made the right decision when I saw my flower mock up at her office. My breath was completely taken away. The day of the wedding, I was at a loss for words when I walked into my ballroom. The room was complete because of the job that Laurie did.

Laurie was my favorite vendor to deal with! Communication was easy. We met with her in person twice and she was always available through e-mail. We made a few changes throughout the process and Laurie was so accommodating. The day of our wedding was absolute perfect! She listened to our vision, and brought it to life! What a perfect day! Thank you again for everything!

When planning our wedding, the choice of florist was a top priority. Contacting and working with Laurelwood Designs was the high point of my wedding planning. Laurie is kind and thoughtful and made the entire process effortless. The chuppah was to die for. Each arrangement from the staircase, to the escort table, to my bouquet was designed to bring the colors and feel of the wedding together. The centerpieces were glorious and exactly what I envisioned. Every detail executed was exceptional and personalized.
