    Amazing florals!

    I emailed Karyn a picture of my floral inspo and she executed it so amazingly. The colors and flowers she chose were perfect for our whimsical fall garden vibe. Definitely book her if you want your floral dreams to come to life 😍

    The best florist around!

    I worked with Karyn to come up with my wedding flowers. I know next to nothing about flowers and based on pictures I showed her of what I like, pictures of my venue and the colors of my bridesmaid dresses she came up with the perfect flowers that went with everything even better than I could have imagined!

    This florist makes your vision bloom!

    Karyn at Genesee Valley Florist is an artist. When we met to discuss the flowers for our June 2022 backyard wedding, I shared my vision of wanting it all to look very organic, not particularly manicured or formal. I talked about the colors I liked, a few flowers I liked and shared a few photos from her Instagram as inspiration.
    Other than that, I told her I was in her hands and wanted her to just do what she does best and everything turned out beautifully -- what I had imagined but maybe could not express exactly in words. It's quite remarkable.
    Karyn made the whole process easy, she is a lovely human and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

    Best Wedding Florist

    In the Geneseo area, it was difficult trying to find vendors. Genesee valley florist made planning from an hour away such an easy task. Working with Karyn was a breeze, she was able to email me with any questions or concerns that we wanted for our big day and vice versa. So happy we chose them for our wedding!

    You NEED to book GVF!

    I will say, Karyn is the amazing, and most reasonably priced florist I could find! She has done three of my cousins wedding, mine, and a friends next year, and each time she does a great job! I showed her pictures of what I wanted, and she made my dreams come true! She did everything from ceremony space, cocktail hour, reception, and all the bridal party flowers! I got my bridal bouquet, a toss bouquet, 8 bridesmaids bouquets, 13 boutineers, 5 corsage's, flower petals, floral crown for flower girl, aisle swag, two 8-foot garlands, flowers for the wedding cake, and greenery for 18 tables. All of this cost $1,350 and included tax and travel costs. You seriously cannot find a better deal out there!

    Professional, easy to work with, and beautiful florals!

    Karyn from Genesee Valley Florist did an absolutely amazing job putting together our wedding florals! I don't know much, if anything, about flowers and we were not local so it was incredible that she was able to take a few photos I sent over email and quick descriptions of what I was thinking (most of which was focused on what I didn't like!) and turn it into the perfect arrangements. She also was super conscious about working within our budget and she came up with a creative idea to use two arrangements from the ceremony as centerpieces for our reception which worked perfectly. Finally, she worked with our cake vendor to coordinate drop off so that she could add the florals we requested on our cake and also styled our arch expertly. We got so many compliments on our florals and they felt so "us" but I felt like I hardly lifted a finger the entire process! I highly, highly recommend Genesee Valley Florist!

    June 2021 Letchworth wedding

    I couldn’t be more satisfied with my experience with Genesee Valley Florist for my wedding. Karyn was responsive and knowledgeable about the types of flowers and cost considerations, able to provide a wide range of products from floral crowns to bouquets to decorating my archway on the day of. When my wedding had to be postponed due to Covid she was willing and able to move to the following year. The cost of flowers was much more reasonable than other florists I had to later work with as a maid of honor. Overall as a well known gardener myself I felt so proud of the work she did and my guests loved the flowers and the artistry she created

    One word: stunning!

    I was a student and employee at SUNY Geneseo and always loved Karyn’s floral shop. Years later, I just hired her for my wedding florals and her work was absolutely stunning as well as affordable. She didn’t bat an eye at delivering to Rochester and I was so pleased! Our bouquets could not possibly have been more beautiful, and my tablescapes were exactly what I pictured in my head. THANK YOU Karyn for sharing your talents with us on our special day. The photos speak for themselves!

    Use Genesee Valley Florist, You will not regret it!

    Karyn was fantastic! She was impressively responsive to emails, reasonably priced, worked around our schedule for a meeting, made us feel extremely comfortable, and to top it all off, our bouquets turned out even prettier than the pictures I used for inspiration. She set everything up the day of the wedding perfectly and without any questions or stress on me. I could not have asked for a better florist. Without hesitation, use Genesee Valley Florist if you are getting married in the area, you will not regret it!

    Beautiful bouquets

    Genesee Valley Florist was very accommodating! We sent a few pictures for an idea of they type of bouquets that we wanted to have. They put together the most beautiful bouquets and I would recommend their services to anyone looking for reasonably priced and gorgeous flowers!

    Karyn is absolutely wonderful to work with! We had a planning meeting with her for our wedding flowers and I continually changed them after that. She continued to work with me, give me ideas and on our wedding day our flowers were absolutely beautiful! She actually made our archway piece out of artificial flowers and I am so happy because now I can save it in our home. I would recommend Karyn over and over again for wedding flowers!

    Karyn was such a pleasure to work with. She was quick in her responses and was flexible when I wanted to make changes, even after the last minute. Her prices were very reasonable, and she set up all of the flowers the day of the wedding so I did not have to worry about it. The end result was beautiful and if I had to do it over, I would choose Karyn every time.

    Karyn did a beautiful job with my daughter's wedding flowers. The bouquets were lovely and perfectly aligned with our vision but she also provided some great suggestions about things we hadn't thought of. She's a joy to work with and I highly recommend her.

    I loved everything about my wedding day, but the flowers were my favorite part. Karyn outdid herself. My bouquet was stunning, and took people's breath away every where I went. The centerpieces turned the ballroom into a scene from a fairytale or Disney movie. EVERYTHING was stunning. She is awesome to work with and has an incredible eye. BOOK HER. You won't regret it!

    The flowers at my daughter's wedding were BREATH TAKING!! That is what we have received the most feedback on....how stunning the flowers were. Karyn at Genesee Valley Florist is sweet, professional, and over delivers on her promises, not to mention the VALUE!!! I would suggest you not wast your time looking anywhere else. You will not find more beautiful flowers or better customer service anywhere!!

    Karyn is superb! Her knowledge of flowers, arrangements, and what would look amazing together is stellar. She knew exactly what we wanted, even when we didn't know exactly how to express it in words. She was so responsive and flexible, even making last minute adjustements for us the week before the wedding. I brought non-floral items to add to the centerpieces, and she incorporated them seamlessly in with the arrangements. If I were to ever have another event in the area, I'd definitely use Genesee Valley Florist again!

    I was very impressed with the flowers we had for our wedding. I wanted something simple, but elegant and Karen and her team did a fantastic job! I had a mix of peonies, white roses, hydrangeas, and baby's breath. I had checked out a couple of other florists in our area and no one came close to the quote Karen had given us. Included in that was my bridal bouquet, my bridesmaids bouquets, the bouts for all the men (groom, groomsmen, fathers, ushers), centerpieces, two vases for the church, and corsages for the mothers. I wasn't sure what to expect but when our wedding day came, all of the flowers came out beautifully! A week and a half later and they are still fresh and looking gorgeous! Karen did a great job and was good about working with me during this entire process. She is definitely worth checking out!

    Karyn was wonderful to work with. I told her what my vision of my wedding day was and she delivered. I was going for a rustic, vintage garden theme. When my mom saw my bouquet she said it looks like it was just picked from the garden. It was perfect! The centerpeices were perfect as well. The prices can not be beat. Karyn did an awesome job at a realistic affordable price. Also, when you go to her shop you will be greeted by her adorable dog who comes to work with her every day. She was great to work with and the flowers were beautiful and exactly what I wanted.

    I couldn't have been happier with the amazing job Karyn did on my wedding flowers! She understood what I wanted and worked with all the ideas I had. The bouquets/boutonnieres were exactly what I had envisioned. And, Karyn was willing to use my antique mason jars in the centerpieces. The wedding cake flowers were perfect as well!

    My flowers we beautiful and affordable. Karyn is great with working with you when you have an idea in mind for how you want your flowers to look, but don't necessarily know what exact flowers you want. She is an artist. Very prompt at answering my questions.
