B Floral and Event Design by Shelly Bagdasian

Shelly is awesome and saved my wedding reception (well, at least the centerpieces)!! When we were first working with Shelly, we were only using her for wedding party related flowers (bouquets, etc.) and her rentable chuppah. But, at 4 am the day before the wedding, we realized that the centerpieces we created and planned on using were destroyed! But Shelly came to the rescue, responding almost immediately to our email. She had some great suggestions for us in terms of new centerpieces and was really a calming influence on us. Her flowers and last minute centerpieces looked absolutely incredible and she was so wonderful to work with. I highly recommend Shelly for all your floral and chuppah wedding needs!!

Shelly was an absolute dream to work with. From day one she was responsive (rare I found in the wedding industry!) and excited and great to work with. And, of course, her flowers were beautiful! She went above and beyond what we paid her to do (helping put up our escort cards, arranging our guest book, etc). If I could give her 6 stars in all categories i would. Love her-thanks Shelly!!!

Shelly was wonderful to work with! Our flowers look gorgeous- easily the most beautiful and fragrant white roses, lilies, and ivy I've ever encountered. I had an aziatic lily for a hair piece during my reception and it was as glamorous as I had pictured it in my head. We had a garland of ivy sprinkled with lilies and white roses decorating a staircase at our reception venue- this was the only aspect I was worried about but Shelly completely nailed it. It looked so chic. My flower girl's pomander of white roses was adorable, and a late addition that Shelly was happy to accommodate, a tribute to her flexibility. Shelly was always available and willing to answer any questions I had to ensure floral perfection. I happily recommend Shelly to any bride!

B Floral exceeded our expectations in every respect. The peonies and other flowers looked amazing. The colors and pearl/rhinestone accent completed our vision for the wedding. Shelly from B Floral was reccomended to us and we will reccomend her to friends and anybody we meet who is planning a wedding.

I cannot say enough good things about B Floral Event Design! Shelly was very flexible in meeting with me at a cafe near my job for the initial consultation. I explained my vision and she totally got it and ran with it! All of the flowers were beautifully done! Additionally, compared to some other florists she is very reasonable priced and gave me a few different options in order for me to work within my budget.

Shelly was wonderful! She has a great eye for color! She was extremely helpful and made suggestions without being pushy or at all obtrusive. She was very easily reached by phone and/or email. I will most definitely be recommending her to friends and family and would highly recommend her to any brides looking for a florist!

Shelly was my most favorite vendor to work with; from the very first contact, she was very responsive. She met me at a location that was convenient for me, during my working hours and near my office building. She was prepared for our meeting with pictures of her work, with ideas. I was able to decided on what I wanted for my Bouquet, for my attendant's Bouquets, for the Groom's and Groomsmen's Flowers to the Table Arrangements. To turn around a few weeks later and change everything, I mean everythings. She was responsive right away with the changes and still staying within my Budget. When I added 3 more Tables, she was right there with the revisions. I added Balloons, and a sign for a Wreath. She was right there with me. On my Wedding Day, the Flowers were prettier than I had expected, just Beautiful. She arrived early and got to work with organizing and displaying my Flowers. I loved working with Shelly and recommend her to do your flowers for your Wedding or other important Events. She is the BEST!

Shelly is amazing! She works within your budget and doesn't try to overcharge you for anything. She has a great eye for an artistic look and will let you know what looks good together and what doesn't. I went in to our meeting without any knowledge of flowers and came out feeling extremely comfortable and that I didn't have anything to worry about.

Shelly literally changed the face of my wedding with her creativity and vision for what i was trying to do. The flowers were absolutely beautiful and still look wonderful more than a week later! She created a flower wreath for me and center pieces that were talked about all night long. She also helped me with the decor of the venue and completely brought my vision of rustic elegance to life. I'd recommend Shelly to anyone looking to wow their guests with beautiful flowers and ideas to make your event unique and unforgettable! Thank you, Shelly!!!

I initially started planning my DC wedding while living in NYC so I was limited to making telephone calls to vendors. I called several florists in the DC area and Shelly's prices were right in line with my budget. I learned that she works from her home so I imagine that has something to do with the low overhead costs which translates to lower prices for brides! Once I moved to the area, I met with her about six months prior to my wedding for our initial meeting. In the six months that followed, she was always very responsive to my inquiries and worked with me to meet my budget needs. She is very professional and provides a large number of photos of her work. She is also very flexible (made two deliveries of flowers so that I had my bouquet earlier in the day for first-look photos, she also rented me all of the glassware for flowers and floating candles since the bulk our guests were coming into town and wouldn't be taking the centerpieces). On the day of my wedding, I couldn't have been happier! All of the flowers were fresh and beautifully arranged. It exceeded my expectations! The color combinations of flowers were the perfect compliment for the occasion. I would highly recommend Shelly's services to any bride.

Shelly was a fantastic florist who gave us gorgeous flowers and was extremely flexible in meeting our budget. In searching for a florist, we had started to get frustrated because every vendor we talked to seemed to think they couldn't do what we needed within our budget. When I emailed Shelly, she said "it's always doable, you just might need to get creative." From the moment we met with her, she was able to understand what we wanted and told us how we could get there. She suggested less expensive substitutes for our bouquets that still looked gorgeous. She was always very responsive, and let us change our minds as we got closer to the wedding. A number of people commented on how the flowers really added a nice fall look to the wedding decor. She was extremely organized and dependable throughout the entire process. She sent us extra information and was a great value. We would recommend her to anyone.

Shelly was absolutely wonderful. She listened to my ideas and made recommendations based on my budget and what would work best for the season. The bouquets ended up being even more beautiful than I imagined.

I would recommend Shelly 100 times over!! She was such a delight to work with! Shelly was always quick to respond and always willing to work with me to make changes/modifications to my arrangements. I will never forget the day I walked into the venue to see all of Shelly's hard work - the chuppah, the aisle, centerpieces, bridesmaid bouquets, etc. She captured my vision perfectly and far exceeded my high expectations! If you are looking for a florist in the DC metro area, look no further...Shelly is it!

We loved Shelly! She was so easy to work with especially with our tight flower budget. I had second thoughts about my bouquet about a month before the wedding and she was more than wiling to give me more suggestions. The day of the wedding, she was there exactly when she said she would be and everything was perfect. I can't say enough good things about Shelly!

Shelly and her husband were amazing to work with. My floral arrangements were so creative and artistic. We gave Shelly freedom to choose our centerpieces and floral pieces based on our wedding theme and colors-and she did an AMAZING job. Shelly was very flexible and was willing to decrease my order based on my guest count (I had a drastic decrease in numbers in the last 3-4 weeks of planning). I felt her prices were very competitive; and she gave me samples for my catering design consultation. I will definitely be using Shelly for my local florist from now on! Thanks Shelly!

Shelly is WONDERFUL to work with. The arrangements and bouquets she provided for our wedding were exactly what we wanted and turned out better than we could have imagined. She has a very creative and artistic eye which made our wedding beautiful. I can't tell you the number of compliments I received on my bouquet alone!! Her prices are very reasonable and she was extremely easy to work with. Shelly was very responsive to our questions and flexible with all changes that we threw her way! I was referred to her by my cousin who used her for her wedding last year and my brother hired her for his wedding in 2 months. We HIGHLY recommend using her!!!!

Shelly did such a beautiful job with the flowers for my wedding! I especially loved the arrangement she did on my card table and the cake topper. She was very responsive with email and was flexible with me while I changed the contract 6 times! Thanks Shelly!!

Shelly did a great job with our flowers for our wedding day. She met with us initially at a coffee place near our apartment and was very friendly and helpful. We were especially impressed with her flexibility to fit within our budget and give us the best flowers for the theme we envisioned. She also provided several ideas to help us tie in our own handmade centerpieces with the theme of the rest of the event. Everything turned out great! We would definitely recommend Shelly to anyone looking for flowers in the DC area!

I found Shelly though some friends at work and they raved about her work. I am equally happy and delighted. She was lovely to work with. She took our ideas and thoughts and acccomplished more than I ever expected with our budget. I highly recommend you meet with her and you can feel comfortable knowing she will accomplish amazing results.

Shelly was a dream to work with! She perfectly captured my vision for my wedding bouquet and flowers and she was wonderfully thoughtful and flexible in ensuring that everything was perfect! Her expertise, professionalism and talents are exceptional. I highly recommend Shelly to those searching for breathtaking flowers for a wedding or anyone in need of one of the best florists in the industry.
