Testimonials

We just can’t stop grinning from ear to ear, and we keep trying to figure out a way to say “thanks” for the amazing, magical, thrilling, packed-to-the-rafter-with-love wedding that was totally inspired by the beauty of the floral décor you created. Those cherry blossoms were the very definition of the exuberance of spring, new life, and LOVE – the most perfect metaphor for wedding that I ever saw. People were GAGA over the display – it was the most amazing thing. I am at a loss for words to describe. I just adored working together with you, you gave it your all and much more. Much, much, more. The unique and precious beauty of the celebration will set the tone for a marriage that is a match made in heaven. And your flowers made it look just like that – like HEAVEN.

One of my favorite wedding vendors! Matthew Kolins was a pleasure to work with — he was so flexible, professional, and on top of every detail. We had many moving parts in our wedding and his team made everything so easy to plan and looked flawless. Everyone was swooning over the flower bridge and chuppah he designed for us. He even met me at the crack of dawn at the NY flower market to pick out flowers. I can’t recommend him enough.

Matthew Kolins and his team at Atlas Floral created a truly magnificent floral vision at our wedding. For the ceremony they created impressive arches out of branches and flowers at both the start of the aisle and at the alter. The showstopper for the cocktail hour and reception was the escort card table, which was comprised of a massive golden tree that they built on site, adorned with flowers and ribbons. The table arrangements were also spectacular. In three hours, Atlas Floral was able to create a real fairy tale setting for our wedding!

Wow! Wow! Wow! We are all still blown away by the impeccable work from Atlas Floral Decorators! We worked with Jeannie and she totally blew us away with the service and the quality of work! The day of the wedding, Jeannie was onsite making sure everything was perfect and that we were happy. It is hard to put into words how happy we are with Atlas Floral Decorators. The flowers were so beautiful they were the forefront of our wedding day. We cannot thank Jeannie and Atlas enough for making our wedding as beautiful as they did!

Ryan at Atlas was so wonderful to work with. He made our wedding on Nov 4th breathtaking and was a pleasure to work with. The centerpieces and lighting were gorgeous, we are still getting compliments

Sharon M.
We worked with Jeannie from Atlas. From the moment I met Jeannie she got me and my vision right off the bat, and I felt so comfortable with her and trusted that she would see it through. She was patient with me changing my mind on table linens multiple times! Jeannie outdid herself and we were blown away! She made the room more beautiful than I could ever envision. I didn’t want to leave the dance floor where she hung roses and candles from the ceiling, it was truly magical. I can’t thank her and her team enough!

Claire C.
I cannot begin to say enough amazing things about Atlas Floral Decorators. I’ll start with the obvious, which is their exquisitely beautiful work. We worked with Barry, who during our initial meeting, listened to us describe what our venue looked like. Even though he had never worked there before, he immediately understood the vibe and was able to come up with ideas that suited and emphasized the place perfectly. Barry designed the MOST BEAUTIFUL centerpieces for us, it was exactly what we were looking for. He worked with and accommodated our budget and the whole planning process was seamless.
