WOW!
The quality, design, and personalization that Anaphora Flowers delivered for our wedding was beyond my expectations. Adriane is extremely skilled and talented in floral design and I highly recommend her to all my friends and family. Our October wedding was against the bright fall foliage with four bridesmaids each wearing a different color. Anaphora Flowers amazed me with their ability to make it all work beautifully- even when I asked for a pop of blue! We were married in front of a stunning and unique ground arch with my dream bridal bouquet dressed in velvet ribbon. Our venue was decorated with exquisite flowers and vintage cobalt blue bottle arrangements on the dining tables. My husband and I could not be happier with our wedding day- made so very special by Anaphora Flowers.

Where do I begin!?
Thank you is simply not enough! From my bridal bouquet, table and the flowers in the chapel in the woods; you made our wedding feel straight out of a movie. You were responsive and organized making it so easy to work together, especially as I live out of state. I’m so lucky you were a part of our special day and know that every bride would be lucky to work with you ✨

Picture Perfect Wedding!
Adriane, chefs kiss! You totally outdid yourself. Our wedding was GORGEOUS because of you, your talent, and your love for floral design. Everywhere Scott and I looked was decorated perfectly. Our sweetheart table, arbor, welcome sign, tables and so much more was just jaw dropping. You have become more than just our florist but a great friend and someone that I can’t wait to see again when we vacation in VT. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Floral Perfection!
Where to even begin?! I am so incredibly grateful for Adriane’s exceptional talent and professionalism in bringing my wedding floral vision to life. Choosing to hire a professional instead of attempting a DIY approach was undoubtedly the best decision I made. Adriane’s expertise and attention to detail surpassed all expectations, resulting in the most perfect wedding florals I could have ever asked for.
From the moment I laid eyes on the bridal and bridesmaid bouquets, filled with the most exquisite dahlias, ranunculus, and garden roses, I knew I had made the right choice. In addition, Adriane’s ability to adapt to unexpected circumstances was truly remarkable. When inclement weather forced us indoors, she seamlessly transformed our outdoor flower arch into a stunning floor arch, ensuring that our ceremony remained just as enchanting as we had envisioned.
One of the highlights of the day was the Flower Bar, an idea I had found on Pintrest and shared with Adriane. It was an absolute hit with our guests, who loved creating their own floral favors to take home with them. Adriane’s willingness to embrace my ideas and incorporate them flawlessly into the event truly showcased her dedication to making our day extraordinary.
Not only is Adriane incredibly talented, but her warm personality and unwavering commitment to her clients make her an absolute pleasure to work with. I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible work she did on our wedding day. Thank you, Adriane, for making our floral dreams come true!

Picture Perfect Flowers for our Wedding!
Our wedding was this last September at Jay Peak. Adriane was amazing to work with, she made the process of selecting our flower arrangements incredibly easy. As individuals who do not know a lot about flowers, she was very informative and provided great insights into what flower choices we should consider for our special day. We were thrilled to see how our arrangements looked on the day of our wedding. They were perfect, and a great complement to the beautiful Fall foliage. We would absolutely recommend working with Adriane for your own Vermont wedding!

One of the best decisions!
One of the best decisions we could have made for our wedding day was working with Adriane! From the first moment we spoke, it was evident that she truly cares for her clients and making their wedding day vision a reality. Not only is she an incredibly talented artist, but her passion and positivity made wedding planning so much more fun! We were so impressed with her professionalism throughout the entire process and having her clear, consistent communication was incredibly appreciated. Even before the big day, we were confident that everything would be beautiful- and yet, she managed to exceed all expectations! The florals were absolutely gorgeous. Truly, we will be forever grateful to Adriane for making our day so stunning and special. Can not recommend her enough- She is simply the best!!

ADRIANE IS INCREDIBLE
I can’t even begin to explain how incredible Adriane is at what she does, and just how much of a joy she was to have as part of our group of wedding vendors. Adriane was the first person that we hired outside of our venue, and although we had plenty of time before our wedding she got right down to business and spoke with me openly about what we were envisioning and what our hopes were. She put together the most amazing mood board that made me feel so comfortable and instilled in me that we had hired the perfect florist. When we had to postpone because of Covid, Adriane made this such a smooth transition. Since we moved our date, I had the joy of communicating with Adriane for over 2 years as we shifted around details and checked in periodically, she really became a friend of mine. She is kind, caring, professional, and really just so easy to talk to.
NOW, onto the flowers. When I tell you I gasped when I saw them, I truly gasped when I saw them. She has such an incredible eye and all of our flowers looked exactly as I had pictured them for 2 years. This was hands down my favorite part of the day. I can’t put into words how easy this decision was, but I would hire Adriane over and over again for any event.
Don’t think about it anymore…just do it!

BEST FLORIST EVER
Adriane went beyond the call of duty. Not only were the arrangements stunning, she demonstrated incredible professionalism and flexibility every step of the way. She’s also a joy to brainstorm with—perfect for the unsure bride! She even gave us a flower crown to give our puppy when we got home.

BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS, BEAUTIFUL FLORIST/WEBSITE, BEAUTIFUL WOMAN I wish; so much (!), that a 5-star rating could be a 1,000,000-star rating~particularly as I muse and write about Anaphora. From the very second we spoke with Adriane Schultz and started the process of putting my beloved daughter’s vision for her intimate wedding into “action”, I cannot say enough about the sweet professionalism and kind and considerate listening that Adriane gave to us. Our wedding was small; but, our wants were specific. When we finally met face-to-face at the venue to walk through all the placements, vessels, special requests Adriane listened so carefully and was simply “blooming” with ideas and wonderful enthusiasm. The wedding at The Simon Pearce Event space at Quechee, Vermont was a 40-person affair filled with all the joy and love any group of people could wish or bestow on two people. No small part of that lovingness was Adriane and her gorgeous renderings of exquisite table display, candles, floral and greenery chandeliers, perfect bouquets and handsome boutinierres. Her excitement and enthusiasm when we arrived at the venue was infectious and we were speechless and so, so happy to walk around before the guests sat down to marvel at the detail, intricacy and pure beauty of the flowers; which were everywhere~in the very best, most subtle and glorious way. Adriane stayed with us to walk through and make sure we were happy and OH YES (!) we were! When my beloved son-in-law came upstairs with a crushed anemone in his buttonhole, Adriane whipped it off and created a gorgeous replacement; on the spot. She was prepared, she was available and so proud of her own work, we walked through the space and we all literally had tears in our eyes. We started this floral journey as vendor and family; we ended as friends. I could not even imagine a more wonderful person to enlist for any vision possible, for her pride in her work makes Adriane; in the very best possible way, the one and only florist I would ever recommend.

Above and beyond!
It’s difficult to know where to begin in describing our experience with Adriane. From the very start, she was warm, welcoming, and calm-exactly what my husband and I needed amongst the chaos and stress of planning a wedding. As a flower farmer, who is in the early stages of becoming a florist, flowers were extremely important to me (the bride). Other than actually marrying my husband, they were the single most important thing to me. We decided to have a small wedding (about 45 people) at Simon Pearce in Quechee, Vermont in late June. My husband and I are very connected with “The Lost Generation,” Hemingway, Paris during the 20s-30s, gypsy jazz, and the moody romanticism of it all. In fact, our main inspiration for our wedding was the movie “Midnight in Paris.” We had a very specific and challenging vision and aesthetic for our wedding, and Adriane absolutely nailed it. Upon meeting her for a tour of the light and airy industrial venue space at Simon Pearce, Adriane and I immediately connected, and I felt that I had known her for my whole life. She was just as excited as we were to make the vision come to life (maybe more!), and was already giving us ideas to make this vision a reality. Adriane is one of the kindest, most caring people we have ever met, and I couldn’t recommend her and her beautiful luxury floral services more. From the bronze candlesticks, to the whimsical floral chandelier; the gorgeous smilax garlands and accents, to the ceremony arrangements; and finally, the most beautiful bridal bouquet and personals I have seen, there are no words. It was an incredibly hot and humid Vermont summer day, and some of the spring blooms just could not handle it. Adriane made sure to have plenty of back-up flowers to replace wilted boutonnieres on-the-spot, adjust personals so they were perfect, and more. To top things off, Adriane wrote us the most touching note which we opened in the bridal suite on our wedding day. She truly went above-and-beyond the expectations. I feel lucky to call her not only our incredible wedding florist (have I mentioned her attention to each and every detail?), but a mentor and a great friend. Adriane is the only florist I would recommend to any couple looking for someone who will spare nothing to make sure they have the most beautifully designed florals, with heart, love, and genuine passion to back it up. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Adriane.

We had Adriane decorate both our outdoor and indoor space with flower arrangements. She was so kind, easy to work with, and most importantly created beautiful bouquets/arrangements! I would highly recommend Adriane. She would be an excellent choice for your wedding day or any special occasion.

Beautiful Flowers and Stunning Design!
Adriane and her team were wonderful. We had a larger wedding with 180 guests, and I did not have a specific vision for florals. Adrianne worked with our planner, and my mother to design amazing florals that fit us as a couple. Her attention to detail is unmatched and her passion for design is clear. She was genuinely excited to create beautiful florals for our day and her energy was contagious. When I saw my bouquet for the first time it made me tear up! Some other highlights included: a stunning grounded floral arch for our ceremony, which we were able to use as décor at our reception, unique centerpieces for each of our twenty reception tables, and beautiful dried chilies for table details. If you are considering using Anaphora Flowers for your event you will not be disappointed – Adriane can do it all.

Beyond my dreams
Adriane is INCREDIBLE!!! I met her at a bridal show and I was instantly blown away with her gorgeous floral arrangements! I was so impressed with Adriane’s kindness, professionalism and creativity. She was an absolute joy to work with from designing all of my florals to her outstanding set up the day of the wedding and everything else in between. She also was very accommodating for prices. She gave me a proposal and my contracts all with visuals of each kind of flower she was going to use, which made it so easy! Especially for someone who doesn’t know many flower types by name! Walking into my venue it was something out of my dreams and a huge part of that was the florals! She worked soo hard the morning of and made everything absolutely perfect! All of the bouquets were gorgeous!! Everything was perfect! I would highly recommend Adriane!
