    Incredible!

    AMAZING! My wedding flowers were the most beautiful flowers I have seen. Sara far exceeded my expectations. She took the time to talk to me about my vision and she made it come to life. Our venue did a food tasing and vendor show several months before our wedding and Sara offered to make me an example bouquet for the table with the inspiration she received from our meeting. What she put together was incredible and gave me so much confidence and trust in her for our wedding day. We received countless compliments on our flowers. Sara and her team are professional and extremely talented. Hiring The Fuchsia and Peony Florist was one of the best wedding decisions we made!

    Sara and her team were amazing!

    We recruited Sara and her team at The Fuchsia Peony to handle the floral arrangements for our wedding this past October and couldn't have been more pleased with the entire process from start to finish, including the final product. Sara really listened to our vision and did an amazing job bringing it all to life. Her attention to detail and handling of the flowers and setup on our wedding day were all noticed and appreciated. We are so happy we chose The Fuchsia Peony and would encourage anyone planning a wedding to choose them too. Thank you Sara!

    Most beautiful flowers, perfectly captured our vision

    We had the pleasure of working with Sara & Maddie on our wedding flowers. We had this image in our head and they perfectly captured what we were going for. They listened to everything we wanted and worked with us to help us articulate our vision. We could not imagine a better team to work with. The bouquet they created for me was so beautiful that I ended up getting a tattoo of it. Could not ask for a better, kinder, more talented florist!

    Breathtaking

    The best word I can use to describe the fuchsia peony and their services is breathtaking. Sara and her team were extremely easy to work with and all such wonderful human beings. Sara listen to our vision and completely ran with it in all the right directions and input her brilliant ideas at all the right moments. She completely understood a request in design and mended it perfectly with our venue. She was responsive and adjusted our needs every step of the way. Sara and her team offer on site set up the day of your event and this made our day extremely easy. She truly made our vision come to life And exceeded our expectations of a beautiful wedding.
    We couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful day if we tried.
    Everywhere I looked elements of fuchsia peony’s work shined and enhanced the spaces perfectly without overdoing it.
    We cannot recommend Sara and the fuchsia peony enough.
    Thank you all and we can’t wait to work with you all again in the future 💕

    Bringing our vision to life and adding beauty to our day

    Despite being late to the game in booking a florist, The Fuchsia Peony worked with us in creating affordable and beautiful bouquets and greenery for our wedding. The team was responsive and did a phenomenal job in executing our vision. The corsages and boutonnieres were stunning and got lots of compliments from our family members who were wearing them. They helped us stay within our budget while also bringing our vision to life. We are so happy that we were able to work with The Fuchsia Peony, and they no doubt added beauty to our wedding day.

    The girls at the Fuchsia Peony are wonderful. The shop itself is adorable and Sue is very talented. She's able to create your every Pinterest dream, which is what every bride really wants!!

    Pinterest boards come to life!

    I originally found Sara at The Fuchsia Peony from one of my friends that booked her for their wedding. They have the most beautiful arch/arbor. I HAD TO HAVE IT. The real kicker is, everything Sara does is just as beautiful, if not better than the arch. The flowers and arrangements were more than I could ever ask for. They smelled and looked amazing, and were the definition of perfection. We received some preview pictures from our photographer and the flowers make the everything so pulled together. It is like they are straight from my wedding dreams and Pinterest board. Don't worry about not knowing about flowers and that you might not know if you are getting what you asked for, trust me, Sara has got it covered!

    Perfection at the right price

    I was a bride on a budget with a very specific vision in mind. Sarah was able to take my Pinterest board and work within my budget to make my bouquets, boutineers and venue garlands perfect! She suggested seasonal swaps and lower cost options that still fit my aesthetic. She also sent the most amazing PowerPoint vision board post consultation to ensure we were on the same page. Day of she made two separate deliveries to set up the venue and drop off the flowers at my house which alleviated any stress over flower logistics that I may have had. I could not have been happier with how things turned out.

    They created a fantasy world!

    The Fuchsia Peony helped us to create the perfect fantasy world for my Middle Earth themed wedding! Their flowers and greenery are fresh and smell AMAZING. I hardly recognized my barn venue once it was dressed up in their flowers. Also, if you are looking for a touch of uniqueness, they will gladly work with you. Five shining stars to them!

    Simply perfect!

    Sarah was so so so good to me! She responded to ALL of my questions and was Always willing to explain things to me. I had a vision and she not only made it come to life she made it even better than I had ever imagined.

    Sara has a true gift!

    There are not enough stars in the universe for Sara and The Fuchsia Peony. Sara and her staff are beyond exceptional and blew our expectations out of the water. Sara's talent is undeniable- her passion is reflected in her gorgeous work, her eye for detail is unrivaled, and her customer service is exceptional. She has a special, genuine way about her that makes her an absolute joy to work with. She always keeps her customer's wants and needs at the forefront and she never loses sight of a couple's dream vision- or their budget. When we first met with Sara, all we knew was what color flowers we wanted and what we wanted our wedding feel to be. Sara took this basic information and somehow created beautiful floral touches and centerpieces that were beautiful beyond what we could have ever imagined. She held our hands every step of the way and was the first to honestly tell us when she thought something wouldn't work or that something might work better- all while keeping US on track with our budget. Sara is an absolute gem. Her talent, reliability, and professionalism are only rivaled by her dedication to making her customer's wedding visions come to life. I truly could not recommend The Fuchsia Peony more highly.

    Sara was an absolute pleasure to work with and is INCREDIBLY talented. The floral arrangements she created for our wedding were stunning, and better than I could have ever dreamed! Upon first meeting, she asked great questions about the general vision and vibe for our wedding, and came up with multiple options and ideas for how we could tie in the floral aspect, while sticking to our budget. She was super flexible regarding meetings / phone chats (we met in person twice), and her general demeanor was relaxed and supportive - I felt like I was working with someone I had known for years! Overall, I would 1000% recommend Sara for your wedding. She does amazing work!

    I was so pleased with all the floral arrangements by Sara and her team. I live out of state and got married at Omni Mount Washington Hotel. Sara worked with me and made my vision of the bouquets and centerpieces become real. I didn't know where or how to start explaining what I wanted but Sara looked through some of my Pinterest boards and guided me through everything. She was available when I needed her and I never had to worry about how it would all come together on our wedding day. There were a couple last minute changes I had to make and Sara was extremely accommodating. My family and friends, who came from all over the country, praised my taste in flowers but it was all Sara and her team.

    My daughter's wedding last week had the most gorgeous bouquets & arrangements because Sara works tirelessly with the bride to understand her vision of HER DAY... wedding & flower styles. Sara traveled an hour to see both of our venues and the 4 HUGE vases that we wanted to use. Above & beyond! Sara's arrangements had to be breath taking in both a barn and a tent. Sara will make your event come alive! I will be calling her for the wedding of child #2.. can't wait.

    Our wedding flowers for our May 6th wedding at The Wentworth Inn, Jackson, NH, were so beautiful! I loved the flower type and color combinations that you chose to complement our already colorful wedding. I had no idea what color flowers to have and you put together to most beautiful accent combination. The bouquets were perfect! The centerpieces were stunning, beautifully arranged with the freshest flowers. It doesn't get any better than that. Thank you so much for creating such a lovely part of our wedding.

    The Fuchsia Peony's reply:

    Hi Katey!
    I'm so glad you loved your flowers! And thanks too for sending over the photos from your photographer--It's always so nice to see our flowers in action with pretty brides :-). I hope you had an awesome time celebrating with your friends and family! ~Sara

    My wife and I were married in May at the Mount Washington Resort in NH. We reached out to Sara at Ivy and Aster and from our first meeting, felt super comfortable working with her. Being a lesbian couple we were particularly concerned about having two bouquets that complimented each other, but also showed our individual style and went with each of our gowns. Well, we both LOVED our flowers!!! Sue, in particular, was blown away and still hasn't stopped talking about them :) We wish we could have had them forever. They were exactly as Sara envisioned, beautiful in their own right and completely complimentary. Plus, they went perfectly with each of our dresses! Then the cake! The flowers were absolutely gorgeous and much more than I expected. I'm not sure if folks have already heard of the ornaments you can have made that are a replica of your wedding cake. Our friends got one and we are totally going to do the same! Thank you SO much Sara for making our day so beautiful and for adding to our happy memories!!

    Sara was so wonderful to work with :) I was planning my NH wedding all the way from NC and it was a relief to know she had everything taken care of. Even with a last minute change to my flowers (due to it being winter) my flowers were absolutely gorgeous!

    The Fuchsia Peony's reply:

    Hi Nichole!! I'm so glad you loved your flowers! The amaryllis were super pretty and a great substitute for peonies that week! I always aim to provide the best quality product on your wedding week and am happy to find the best possible substitutes based on your event's vibe--even though peonies were your first choice, who wants barely okay peonies when they can have incredible amaryllis?? No one :-). Best wishes to you both!

    Sara was amazing to work with! I was planning my New Hampshire wedding from Pennsylvania and we did most of our communicating over phone and email, usually at the same time. She was very responsive and easy to get a hold of. She worked with me to get our floral arrangements to a price point that I was comfortable with, which I really appreciated. Our bouquets came out beautifully. I was very impressed and got many compliments! Thank you Sara!!!

    The Fuchsia Peony's reply:

    Hi Julie! I'm so happy you loved everything!! Inevitably, I'm always planning with couples over the phone and email--so many of our couples are planning their NH wedding as a destination event! I'm happy you found it easy to make it all happen with us <3 ~Sara

    Where else can you get gorgeous, reasonably priced bunches of stems to create your own floral arrangements and bouquets! Although Sara's floral design work is amazing, my bridesmaids and I wanted to get creative the night before the wedding and put together our own designs. Sara helped guide me as to how many flowers (big blooms, small blooms and greenery) I would need and what would be freshly available for the season. Sara is totally flexible to what services she provides, seeing as she designed and put together my flower crown, but let us buy loose stems from her directly. I could have gone to a farm or order something online, but going through Sara gave me huge price of mind and the reliability the Internet nor a farm stand could. PLUS, whenever she can, she tries to support those local farmers and buy from them. Sara was very easy to work with and totally delivered! Our flowers were absolutely breath taking!!

    The Fuchsia Peony's reply:

    Hi Katie! I checked out your sneak peek from your photographer, and I think you and your bridesmaids took the idea of 'getting creative the night before' to a whole new level. Your arrangements using our loose stems of flowers came out beautifully! Plus, you picked such great product to work with--really amazing flowers and foliages! Be sure to let your bridesmaids know that if I'm looking for another assistant that they're hired! ~Sara

    Sara was awesome to work with, she is extremely knowledgeable and was always quick to respond to all of my emails. I do not know a lot about flowers and when we first met she was able to show me all the flowers in season for my wedding and ones that matched my color scheme. She nailed my vision and I received countless compliments about how beautiful my bouquets and centerpieces were. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone!

    The Fuchsia Peony's reply:

    Hi there! I am so happy that you loved your flowers! I find it always important to discuss the in season floral options that best suit each couple's vision. There are so many beautiful flowers out there, and my goal is to always make sure couples are aware of any that could save you money in areas where you may not want to splurge on your flower budget, or at least make you aware of those more expensive flowers that you may want to consider for certain areas of your floral design plan. We love using a wide variety of medium and premium level priced flowers to create the look you've been dreaming of <3 ~Sara

    I used Ivy and Aster for my August wedding at the Mt. Washington Hotel and we couldn't have been happier! She worked with me and was willing to give me the look I wanted for my limited budget. My flowers were so beautiful and really made my photos shine. I was constantly sending her photos of inspirations I found online and we found alternate flowers to get the similar look. Sara was very creative and had great vision! Definitely recommend!

    The Fuchsia Peony's reply:

    Hi Claudia! It's so great to hear that you enjoyed your flowers!! And honestly, I don't feel you had to compromise all that much from your photos. You got the look and colors you were going for and used flowers that you either knew you loved or learned more about and realized you loved. It's all about figuring out the best combination of blooms to suit the whole package! Best wishes to you both!! ~Sara

    While wedding planning, both my husband and I approached flowers as an afterthought. We didn't think it was that important to the space- but Sara proved us wrong!! Sara really listened to everything that we wanted. We are pretty laid back people and wanted simple but elegant florals. She listened to everything we requested- and the florals truly made the reception gorgeous. When we walked into the reception and saw the flowers, we were blown away. Sara was so easy to work with- she brought our bouquets right to the bridal suite the day of- I didn't have to worry about anything! I would absolutely recommend using her as your florist.

    The Fuchsia Peony's reply:

    Hi Caroline! We are so happy to hear that you loved the flowers! My goal is to make this process as easy as it can be for you, especially when it comes to the day of your wedding! You work so hard on all the details, and the idea is that it all comes together better than expected and right on time. We work with couples who opt for a more full-service day of delivery, as you did, as well as those who opt to pick up flowers right from our studio in Franklin, NH and yet others who opt for delivery service somewhere in between those two options. In any case, everything is perfectly ready for you to use! Thanks again ever so much for your business. Best wishes to you and Ben!! ~Sara

    Sara with Ivy and Aster completely exceeded my expectations. I decided on very simple floral designs with babies breath and white hydrangeas but what I received was far more intricate, beautiful and plush than I could have imagined. Sara has an awesome personality that makes you feel like talking flowers is fun and not a task. She is a floral genius and you tell her what you have in mind and she will tell you how she can match your aesthetic desires. She arrived on my wedding day and gave me the most gorgeous bouquet that was so unique and so me. I got to hug and thank her and then she was off like a floral fairy making my venue shine. She is exactly what you want in a florist, fun, professional, and amazing at what she does. Get her for your wedding now!

    The Fuchsia Peony's reply:

    Hi Tegan! You are so sweet to say such nice things! We loved working with you to help create the wedding of your dreams! What made your arrangements so interesting and unique was the use of greenery and ferns--it really gave them life! I always suggest couples consider using interesting, lush foliage to really make their flowers feel native to New Hampshire! And your bouquet was filled with seasonal, garden flowers, so you can't possibly go wrong! Thanks again so much for your positivity, and please keep in touch! --From all of us here at IV&A--Sara <3

    Sara was a DREAM to work with! We only met twice before the wedding but she was able to capture our vision and execute everything perfectly! Our flowers came out perfectly and were even more beautiful than I envisioned. You can tell that Sara is really passionate about her work. Our delivery was on time and she was easily accessible via e-mail.

    I talked to a number of florist and really felt like they didn't understand me, my fiance, or what we wanted for our wedding, until we spoke with Sara. She was open to our ideas and totally understood what we wanted. It was so great to finally talk to someone who wasn't only interested in getting us to buy more than we'd planned. Everything came out perfectly the day of - the flowers were beautiful and we were so happy with them! If we were doing it all over again we'd DEFINITELY hire Ivy & Aster again in a heartbeat!

    The Fuchsia Peony's reply:

    I am so happy that you enjoyed your flowers! We too of course love flowers, and I love selling beautiful flowers (it really is my dream job), but I feel like there are two ways I can go about it; I can either try and oversell my couples on their wedding vision and scare them away with huge numbers so they never call or email again, or I can try and help them find a way to get their look and stay close to or within their budget. I always say that you can lead a horse to water but you can't force him to drink! There are so many great flowers out there that couples may or may not have heard of that can help reduce their flower budgets while still giving them the look they are after. You were really able to take advantage of this idea, and I am so happy you loved the results! ~Sara
