"I used AB for my wedding flowers 10 years ago and this year I was tasked with making centerpieces for my company holiday party that would be reasonably priced and beautiful"
"All I can say it WOW!!! I was very hands off on the flowers for my wedding and basically let AB Florist use their creative vision with my color palette"
10/7/2018 I want to start off by saying we were reluctant to hire a florist for our wedding. We had met with a few other florists and were pretty turned off from the whole process of hiring one for our wedding. That changed when we met with Margaret. She was the only one who fit every check mark on our list (we met with 5 others). She was attentive, truly understood what we wanted, and even had such creative and amazing ideas before we even hired her. The best part was she was willing to work within our budget. We decided to hire her that day, even after meeting with others who were also willing to work within our budget. A few weeks before the wedding, our table count increased by 10 and Margaret was so understanding and willing to work with the 10 extra tables. She worked with us to make sure everyone (including parents, grandparents) had all the right flowers and colors. We went from not caring about flowers at all to being completely obsessed with them. We could not stop talking about how great our florist was and how BEAUTIFUL she made our wedding day. She ended up doing 26 tables, and one sweetheart table, our outdoor ceremony, our wedding cake, and entire bridal party and parents. I had a vision for what I wanted and the colors but she took it to the next level and turned that into reality (with considerations on our budget limit- she never pressured us into getting something we didn't want). We still rave about our flowers AND Margaret. So many people made a point to tell us how gorgeous our flowers were. I cannot thank Margaret enough for working with us on the days leading up to the wedding and for her hard work the day of the wedding to make our day perfect. I have already recommended her to so many people and will definitely work with Margaret again!
I have been using AB Florists since 2004. This place was recommended by a catering hall I used when I had my wedding. Let’s just say my wife and myself have never ever been disappointed. Margaret has always from day one been very good to us both. Weather it’s been for a wedding, a funeral or just flowers for a special occasion or a just I love you. Margaret has learned our likes and dislikes and when I ask for something it’s done right the first time from day one. Margaret does recently did ten center pieces for my 50th birthday on 1/18 and let’s just say once again we were not disappointed. We told her nothing to big and just average height and when they arrived it was amazing as alway. Margaret has become a Friend over the years whom I always tell anyone if you needs flowers for anything she is the only one and she will deliver to where ever it is. So for your floral needs please you her she is amazing and when she books an event she is fully dedicated and will not take on another event on the same day. I can keep going on but I truly love her work.
I have to say, I don't usually go through the trouble of writing reviews because I have a busy life, but I must stop and smell the roses because life is too short! I received what felt like personal customer care. I asked for all high end flowers and received suggestions and wanted a pretty basket of flowers made. I always have flowers at home and I am very particular about my flowers being fresh and beautiful and the basket that they made looked beautiful and fresh. Also it was everything I had hoped for. When the basket was delivered my Cousin said it was just beautiful. It represented me and my family very well. When I sent my Mother a picture of the basket she asked for AB Garden's information so she could use them too. She was impressed with what she saw and the pricing was reasonable considering that I was asking for high-end flowers and presentation. I was completely satisfied and so happy to have found favorite Go-to place for my flowers. I highly recommend this florist shop! You will not be disappointed.
I used AB for my wedding flowers 10 years ago and this year I was tasked with making centerpieces for my company holiday party that would be reasonably priced and beautiful. That is when I recalled my wonderful experience with Margaret 10 yrs ago and decided to contact her. Best decision I made. I provided the vases but she not only made a beautiful arrangement but gave me great ideas on the decor and the final product was beautiful! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone with great ideas, beautiful arrangements and willing to work with you As you can see from the pictures the flowers were elegant and beautiful. They lasted a long time and the color was simple but elegant. the pictures don't even capture how pretty they were
All I can say it WOW!!! I was very hands off on the flowers for my wedding and basically let AB Florist use their creative vision with my color palette. I was not disappointed!!! Everyone who came to my wedding couldn’t believe the way that the florals were arranged. She decorated my arch for my ceremony beautifully. The centerpieces were out of this world gorgeous my jaw dropped when I walked into the room! She even was able to hang greenery from the ceiling of my venue to feel like we were just cocooned in florals. It was absolutely breathtaking and I will provide pictures so everyone can see what an amazing job they do. 10/10 would recommend and I have to say I had the prettiest florals out of any wedding I’ve been to!
Do not judge a book by its cover. This florist shop may be hidden underneath the LIRR train tracks, however it should have a permanent spotlight. This has easily become the ONLY place I go to shop for arrangements and special event flowers. Margaret has the best prices around and she listens to you. She creates magic from just an image, or invitation, or just by asking what colors you like. She works with your budget and is straightforward. Something that we need more of. From micro weddings, to baby and bridal showers, to my own wedding.. I have been nothing less but impressed and in awe of everything she creates. As an avid lover of flowers and design, Margaret is 5 STARS!
I have to concur with all the 5 star reviews! I needed a funeral arrangement and Margaret suggested to send a basket of transplantable annuals and perennials instead of the usual spray or bouquet. After the funeral, my co-worker (who the flowers were for) wrote me: "I just wanted to say thank you so much for the flowers, my grandmother was in awe. She is a big gardener so we will be planting them in her garden in remembrance of my grandfather. Out of all the flowers we received those were her favorite." Enough said, Margaret is wonderful...don't hesitate to call her first.
Margaret earned a 5 star review from me for not only creating one of the most exquisite bouquets, built around yellow roses (for my Yellow Rose of Texas daughter) & included "Mango Callas" & a perfect variety of other flowers & greens. The colors, textures, sizes all complimented each other perfectly. She definitely has a gift for floral design! We did have a misunderstanding, but it was my fault for not being more clear. Margaret handled it with great professionalism & grace. I recommend her with all my heart. Thank you again Margaret!
I'm from out of town and had to come to Queens for a funeral. I had to be there in a few days so made floral arrangements entirely over the phone. I was surprised at the exquisite detail and the amount of flowers I got for the price. I had texted her a few words of remembrances for two sets of flowers, and she wrote them out in very nice, warm handwritten notes that accompanied the flowers. Everything was so thoughtfully and professionally detailed. I can understand why this business consistently gets five stars.
Without any doubt, going to AB Florist and working with Margret will be the best decision you made! She has worked on 4 different stylings of floral arrangements for myself, my family and my friends -and every single time she creates wonderful masterpieces with her flowers! The experience of working with Margaret can be as simple as showing an image of what you like and trusting her expertise and years of experience to guide you in the direction of what you are seeking. I highly recommend this place!!!
My wedding was in October 2018 and Marg was great with getting back to me with quotes and suggestions. She made my bouquets beautifully and boutonnieres. We also ordered large bouquets as thank you for our parents. They were all beautiful. She supplied extra petals for us to spread around the venue tables (because our venue was strict with using their in-house florist). Prices were more than reasonable. She's very straightforward, which I LOVE. I absolutely would use her again for future events!
My family has been using AB Garden Center for years, so there was no question in my mind who to use for my wedding. Margaret truly delivered spectacular pieces. I got tons of compliments the whole night on the bouquets, the decor, and the centerpieces. I have wanted to have a fall wedding for as long as I can remember because I love bright bold colors. I was speechless when I saw my bridal bouquet with orange and burgundy and small berries. It was more perfect than I could have ever imagined!
Asked for a memorial spray for my grandmother on short notice. The professionals at AB Garden were not only transparent with availability of certain flowers I requested but followed up with a photo of the arrangement before delivery. To me this is so important. So many times I've purchased flowers online, to see that the bouquet sent is not what was was pictured online. I was grateful that they took this extra care to ensure my satisfaction. Thanks AB Florists!
Margaret is a miracle worker. This place really makes you feel at home and makes sure that all your needs are met. We went to her with only 4 days notice and she was able to put together floral arrangements for the centerpieces, boutonnières, corsages, and bridal bouquet. All of which came out gorgeous!!!! Definitely the only place I will go to for anytime I need flowers for anything. We can’t thank them enough!
I cannot say enough about my experience with Margaret & AB Florist! She made our wedding vision come to life! Our flowers were beyond beautiful and she was so helpful every step of the way! She even came to the rescue when our outdoor ceremony had to moved inside due to the rain and we couldn't be happier with the service! We were able to stay within budget while looking like a million bucks!
Margaret is such a talented florist who has been in business for over 20+ years and serving the tri-state area, along with Nassau and Suffolk county. I would highly recommend her for her service, fresh flowers, experience, reliability, punctuality of delivering your order, creativity, and most importantly, will work around your budget. Call her- you will be glad you did!! I give her 5 stars!!
Don’t go anywhere else for beautiful flowers! I got a medium sized bouquet for my best friend’s birthday here. The flower selection was soooo beautiful. You can tell the florist has years of experience and impeccable taste. I picked a couple flowers and the florist pieced it together with some other kinds. Wrapped with care and well priced. My best friend LOVED her bouquet. Thank you!!
I came to AB Florist 3 weeks out from my last minute microwedding. I had a picture of what I wanted my bouquet to look like but was told the flowers used in the bouquet were summer blooming. Margaret told me she’d try her best to replicate the bouquet and I actually loved it even more. Highly highly highly recommend. No nonsense, straight to the point, and beautiful flowers.
Margarita is absolutely amazing. My wedding day was gorgeous because of her and everything went flawlessly. I really can't say enough great things about her and this shop. After a while I just started giving her free reign because she has such an amazing eye for detail and beauty, and does everything herself from the heart. Thank you so, so much!!
Wow, where do I begin. Margaret is not only a professional at what she does she helps you beyond all means to accomplish your vision. Believe me I didn’t make it easy for her with all the ideas I had but she guided me in the right direction and my daughter sweet 16 came out beautiful because of all the arrangements she provided. Thank you so much!
My wife and I listened to our cousins and my sister who has used Margaret before they absolutely love the floral arrangements she did for the various occasions they used her for.So we met with her and decided to use her also and we are so happy we did,she is the best.Her prices are very reasonable. We highly recommend AB Garden Center &Florist.
Margaret did a fantastic job with the center pieces and bouquets for our big day....even with last minute changes Margaret's finished product was Amazing and delivered on time...they are professional, reliable and extremely creative with all their floral arrangements. We highly recommend A&B Garden to all. Thanks again Margaret
Don’t chose anyone else for your flowers!! Margaret went above and beyond what I could of hoped for. My wedding day was beautiful and I’m still getting complements about my flowers! I wouldn’t trust anyone else with such an important day! You will never be disappointed with Margaret taking care of you!!
Margarita did my flowers and centerpieces for my wedding over 20 years ago. I use her for all my occasions. She just did my daughter’s Sweet 16, they were beautiful. She does beautiful work and works well with your budget. Trust me you will love her work n get nothing but compliments.
Thank you AB Florist (specifically Margaret) for making our beautiful open heart wreath for our friends Funeral. I gave Margaret two images as inspiration and she completely delivered. The communication was so efficient and thorough. I would completely go through AB florist again.
We went with AB Florist for my wedding this past September. Marg did such an amazing job on my bridal bouquet, groom's boutonniere, sweetheart table, and table centerpieces. She has a great eye, was very accessible, and was very pleasant to work with. Highly recommend!
Margaret, the owner, is so easy to work with. She listened attentively to our need and made three beautiful floral arrangements for a funeral service. Her flowers were so fresh. Those flowers were still blooming beautifully a week later.
Thank you for the gorgeous bouquet of flowers that you delivered to the nursing home for my aunt. She was so surprised & delighted. Thank you for giving her & I such a remembrance. My sister sent a pic when she visited 2 days later.
From holiday decorations, just because flowers and our wedding. There is nothing that can't be done. We've been coming here for some years and hopefully for years to come. Here are some of our purchases throughout the years.
Miss Margaret is awesome florist. We recently ordered flowers for my father's funeral...she delivered flowers to the funeral home on time...waited for us. She was always cheerful and maintained positive attitude. Thank you.
Margaret provided me with a beautiful arrangement for my mom's casket earlier this year, giving very reasonable prices and kindness. I am very glad I went to her and would recommend her floral design services very highly.
