Prom disaster averted by Coleen and her staff! My son snapped his boutonniere while trying to pin it on the day of his prom. He freaked out, literally, and so did I. However, Mom isn't allowed the same kind of freak out that he was! I contacted Coleen's and Rosie told me to head on up that they would take care of it. Within 5 minutes of his arrival, another one was ready for him and Nancy pinned it on. If there's anything worse than teenage angst, it's the mother of a teenager. Disaster was averted!

I also have to say that initially my son ordered the flowers by walking into Colleen's himself. I was so nervous about what he had chosen, but was thrilled with how beautiful and simple the wrist corsage and the boutonniere were! I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am to Coleen's for their guidance over the years, but especially in this situation. I have ordered flowers many, many times from Coleen's and always trusted the outcome. Thank you!

Wonder Wedding Flowers!. Coleen has been a family friend for many years so when it was time to pick our wedding florist Coleen was the perfect woman for the job. She met with us and knew the exact colors and flowers we wanted. We gave her pictures of ideas we liked and she went above and beyond to match exactly what I wanted. The flowers POP in every picture. She and her staff did a great job tying every piece together with some great vibrant colors. I have received numerous compliments for my bouquet. It was spectacular. I wish it could last forever. Coleen took our peacock theme and tastefully brought peacock feathers into each arrangement. It was exactly what I pictured. We had a breathtaking peacock centerpiece for the card table. The bridesmaid's bouquets made the pictures even more amazing. The groomsmen boutonnieres were perfectly matched to each piece. The cake topper took our plain 2 tiered cake and turned it into an amazing display. Coleen's professionalism and quality of work were greatly appreciated. All deliveries went smoothly without any issues. We can't thank her enough for her hard work. She even came to the church to see everything put together. It was very touching to see her as I exited the limo. Coleen we will highly recommend your work. Thank you so much for making our flowers exactly what I pictured.

My Flowers Glowed!!. I love to garden so my wedding flowers were very important to me. I wanted to be wowed every time I looked at them, both in person and in pictures. Coleen's delivered on every level. She worked with my budget and gave suggestions on how I could trim costs without losing any of the wow I was looking for. Every single element I was looking for was perfect. The flower delivery was right on time, they were fresh and beautiful, and they took my breath away when I first laid eyes on them. My bouquet was exquisite. My flowers actually glowed! The color combination we chose was bold and I wanted my flowers to pop - orange roses with yellow callalilies, green hypericum berries and ivory orchids - they popped and glowed and I never saw anything like it. They were simply spectacular.

Boston's best florist. Coleen's was recommended to us from Port 305 in Marina Bay. My Niece was getting married and wanted her bouquet and the centerpieces to look spectacular and unique and in a blush tone with delicate feathers added in. Because I had not done business with Coleen's I was a little nervous as to how they would look and to make sure that they would be everything that my Niece wanted. When the flowers arrived at the hotel, we could not believe our eyes. They were everything that she asked for: spectacular, unique and delicate with a "wow" factor. The centerpieces at the reception were magnificent and everyone wanted to take them home.I have always used the "well know" florist in Boston for all occasions even though their prices are extremely high. Coleen's offers the quality and artistic design work with a very affordable price. Coleen's is my new "favorite" florist.

Gotta Love This Shop. Out of all of the flower shops in Boston, this is hands down my favorite. This cozy shop on Dot Ave is the place for buying a plant or a bouquet, booking an event or sending a care package. The People are friendly and helpful. They always have a great selection of fresh stuff (ask about what they have downstairs!).

I had never been to the shop before last spring. A friend highly recommended I go to Coleen's for my wedding flowers. I wanted to go with a more well know, down-town boston type of florist, but after about 5 minutes talking to Coleen I was so happy I'd come to her first. She is so knowledgeable and creative and had a million great ideas I never would have come up with on my own.

There are a thousand flower shops to choose from in Boston but why not support a small local business with quality arrangements, extreme. creativity and an exceptionally likable staff?

Our finishing touch for a fabulous party!. We recently hosted a cocktail party for my husband's company. He had co-workers here as well as several associates who had flown in for the party. The party was hosted at our home and we had a personal chef to prepare hors' deuvres. We knew we needed the finishing touch of flowers. We had heard from friends who used Coleen's Flower Shop for Newport wedding so we called the shop. We were so pleasantly surprised to find that Coleen wanted to come to the house to see the set up for the party and to help us to decide on colors for our flower arrangements. We spent over an hour going thru Coleen's sample books and came up with some fun and unique ideas! The day of the party. Coleen's driver delivered the arrangements and set everything up in the house. During the evening, our guests commented on how great the food was, etc - but everyone also pointed out how the flowers - the colors, the arrangements - were the "finishing touches" to the house and to the party! We were so impressed with the quality of service and attention to detail that Coleen's Flower Shop provided.......one of a kind flower shop!!!

Best little flower shop in DOT. I went to Coleen's flower shop on recommendation by my wedding planner. I didn't want to spend a small fortune on flowers and Coleen really came thru. For the price that I paid my centerpieces were BEAUTIFUL!! The girls bouquets were lovely as well!! Couldn't have asked for nicer flowers for my special day! Thank you a million times Coleen! I will be giving your name to every Boston bride I know.

Sad and funny experiance.. Coleen's did flowers for my Husbands funeral. Not only the flowers were beautiful but the service that we recived helped me get through such a difficult time. Her employees were supportive and FUNNY. When I began to cry they made me laugh. It was an experiance I will never forget. Being funny helped me get through it.

The flowers were outstanding and I just want to say thank you to Coleen and the Staff for the wonderful treatment I recived.

Thank you and God Bless.

Wedding flowers.... After having a horrible problem with the florist that I had originally planned on working with, I was recommended Coleen's Flower Shop by my wedding venue. I called her two weeks before the wedding and explained to her the situation and she was more than delighted to help. Since we finalized the centerpieces one week before the wedding, it was hard to get certain flowers that I thought I wanted. Instead Coleen made some recommendations on what she could get and made me another sample so I could visualize it. Coleen and her team were very easy and pleasant to work with and also made me feel very comfortable. The flowers that she made for my wedding ceremony and my reception were absolutely gorgeous!!!! I can't thank her and her team enough for all their hard work and effort. More importantly, I thank them for helping me out last minute and making the ceremony and reception look beautiful with their flowers!
