Stems Brooklyn

Found this store on Unilocal.Being a person who doesn’t like talking on the phone I found the online ordering process was quick and easy. We ordered boutonnieres for my family to wear to church. The order was placed on Saturday and were ready for pick up on Sunday so it was just a quick in and out process. Was a little disappointed due to the fact that some of the flowers were not fully opened and started wilting. But other than that everything was good.

My flower arrangement was perfectly put together. No directions needed. She knew exactly what I needed.

We just got this amazing bouquet of flowers from these people. I have to say it is just not your average flower arrangement. It was for a friends birthday and each flower was vibrant and saturated with color. Normally when you get an arrangement or small bouquet your looking at many of the same flowers sort of put together with some filler. This is not what your getting with Suzanna’s flowers at all. Your getting a focal point, something she wants to highlight, and then the ‘filler’ is an entire gorgeous arrangement of color and shape that balances an entire work of art. Highly recommended. I would not pay again for just some nice flowers in a bunch. Oh and Suzanna herself is kinda awesome, we totally geeked out on the science of plant photosynthesis for a while, she clearly knows her stuff.

My friend and I completed Stems’ Floral Arranging Workshop this fall. As soon as we spotted the store front, we knew that we had found the right place. The window was full of gorgeous hanging air plants and inside we saw stunning arrangements of unique flowers (not a single rose or carnation in sight). We arrived a little early so drank at Sycamore’s Bar which is happily situated in the same space, behind the flower shop. We were amazed by how many people were there. It was a quiet, chilly night in Ditmas Park and we didn’t see many folks on the street. Turns out they were all drinking at Sycamore’s.
Our class started exactly on time and because we were a small group, we all got to know each other pretty quickly. My friend and I were there for research purposes and our fellow flower arrangers were skilling up for an upcoming wedding. Instead of hiring a florist, the girls were going to create their own centerpieces using pieces from the Flower District. Madineyah was our talented and helpful instructor! As a novice flower arranger with an ulterior motive, I was full of silly questions but Madineyah patiently answered them all. Turns out our instructor is also a life coach which explains why she is so good with people. First we were given the insider tips for preserving your fresh flowers longer. Next we watched a demonstration and then it was our turn. Floral arranging is very much a learn by doing skill so there were plenty of adjustments happening. By the end of class, I had consumed two tasty cocktails and created my own unique, front-​facing floral arrangement. Of the four arrangements, not a single one looked the same. That was probably my favorite part. I cannot wait to come back!

Highly responsive, beautiful bouquet, seamless delivery, I am very grateful!

Agree with other reviews that this is a fabulous choice. They made the ordering easy and accessible. They were flexible and responsive when I needed to make changes to my order. They delivered on time, even with tight timing. And the arrangements were stunning and perfect for our event (a 50^th birthday party) — even when I was a bit vague about what I wanted. A great experience — highly recommend Stems!

Beautiful beautiful beautiful! I knew Suzanna would do an amazing job. I’ve been following her on Instagram for a couple years and knew I wanted her as soon as we got engaged. She’s so good at working with you on price. I don’t know too much about flowers and didn’t know really what I wanted. When we first went in to sign our contract and meet with her, she helped me come up with a theme… «Tamed wilderness». I loved it! She sized me up for a bouquet, and then let me keep it!!! What??? So nice!!! Now, that’s service!!! She did our whole wedding from the bouquets, boutonnières, center pieces, corsages and cocktail hour pieces. We had anemones, succulents, dusty millers, ranunculas, David Austin roses and thistle. They were beautiful! The bridesmaids bouquets came out wonderfully and complemented their mint dresses perfectly! I would 1000% recommend stems! In this wedding world where people overcharge and under deliver, I feel like Suzanna was the most approachable and made flowers fun and not stressful! She did an amazing job!
My bestie also ordered 2 bouquets for my bridal shower and she matched the theme we had for the wedding!

If you are getting married in Brooklyn, you must use Stems for your flowers. They do the most original, beautiful arrangements at the best prices. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Suzanna is a dream to work with — a true artist and completely laid back. I wish I could throw more big events just to have an excuse to work with her again.
My advice is to let Suzanna choose whatever local flowers are in season at the time of your event. That way you will get the most beautiful, original arrangements at the best price. That’s what I did, and six months later people are still talking about my bouquet.

Highly recommended! Super easy online ordering, very nice staff, beautiful arrangements.

Stems Brooklyn was super lovely to work with from afar (I am in SF) — so easy to order online! They followed-​up with pictures of the bouquet they sent for me, and they looked just as beautiful as the photos on the site! So happy I went local!

Suzanna was awesome in putting together my wedding flowers! At our initial consultation, I was pretty clueless as to what I wanted, just knew the colours I needed and that I wanted a succulent in the bouquet. Took notes on everything and on my way out, gave me a flower for the road. For the wedding flowers, I got a bridal bouquet, 3 bridesmaids bouquets, centerpieces, boutonnieres, and chuppah flowers. She pulled everything off masterfully and everything looked cohesive and beautiful. Couldn’t have asked for better!

I was looking for flowers delivery for a holiday, and I needed to send flowers to 5 different locations. And I know that they did a great job. I got pictures from my aunt who said that the flowers are beautiful. I chose to use them since I read great reviews about their service, and I can say that the reviews were right. The flowers arrived on time, each one of the people who received them was happy, and the price was worth it.
Friendly service, and professional people. This is what I expect when I order something online or over the phone, or any kind of deal when I am not there to see the actual product.

Working with Stems was a pleasure. The moment we met Suzanna we knew we found our florist. She was warm, friendly, and detailed. She asked great questions and took notes. She even gave us a bouquet she had at the shop to take home… that was a nice touch! She was flexible with pickup times and we were thrilled with the final product… flowers were fresh and beautiful!

I love using Stems. I periodically send flowers for work and when I do, I want the delivery to be unique and non-​FTD. I’m thrilled with the service of the Stems staff and quality of their flowers.

I used stems as my wedding florist for my wedding at the Boathouse in Prospect Park Brooklyn. After meeting Suzanna I had complete confidence in her ability and the fact that she got my whole vision for the event. I couldn’t have been happier with Stems, their work, the price and the overall experience. They made my event the most beautiful and perfect wedding I ever could have imagined. The boathouse itself is a beautiful space but the flowers put it over the top.
I hired a lot of really competent people for my wedding but I have to say that Suzanna and stems really blew my mind. Everything was so so so perfect and even my critical mother agrees! I would recommend Stems to everyone and anyone that has the chance to work with them. I am looking forward to going into the shop and buying flowers as well as grabbing a drink soon with my husband.
Thank you Stems and Suzanna for making my dream wedding a reality. You guys are some seriously talented people. I cant thank you enough!

I contacted Stems from California for a delivery to a best friend of mine in NYC. I needed a sympathy delivery out within an hour before they closed… not only did they make it happen, but Suzanna was a sweetheart and really made me feel better about everything. The arrange was beautiful and perfect for the occasion. I’d highly recommend using Stems and they will be my go-​to florist for NYC going forward!

Beautiful flowers from very cool ladies! I took a really fun and festive flower arranging course with them, and highly recommend it. Though the class was for table arrangements, they also taught us how to make flower crowns as an added bonus! The price was reasonable – especially since there were some tasty treats involved. :) Can’t wait for the next one.

Investigated online options for a floral arrangement for a wake. Hate the typical heart-​shape arrangements. Stems looked like they where a creative shop near by. I called and gave them a $ 200 budget and asked that they just don’t use any carnations. I was stunned when we arrived at the wake and saw a small, unattractive, unbalanced arrangement with some flowers that seemed past their prime. This was a group purchase and they left off 2 names and misspelled 3 others! Incredibly embarrassing. When I called to complain, the owner was somewhat unapologetic– she begrudgingly apologized for the omission/​misspellings but said that she thought the arrangement was fine. We didn’t think so… but I guess she didn’t care.

Our wedding planner (who was doing our flowers) quit a month before the ceremony, and we were flipping out. We had a tiny flower budget and hadn’t done any research on florists. A friend recommended Stems, and they were A-​MA-​ZING. Suzanna is obviously a true artist and her work is stunning. She was able to translate what I described into something even better than we’d hoped for, and she did it within budget. She’s friendly and has a great sense of humor, but takes customer service very seriously. We honestly can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you Suzanna!

I always grab a bundle of flowers from these friendly faces when I’m running errands in the neighborhood, or stopping for happy hour. They have a neat gift selection as well. Very glad to have Stems nearby. Thanks for the hospitality ladies!

Suzanna is absolutely amazing!!! I hired her to do the flower arrangements for my wedding and could not be any happier with the results. She totally *got* my vision from the start– I never even spoke with another florist. I gave her very little direction because I trusted her so much, and she delivered way beyond what I could have imagined. The attention to color, texture, detail and presentation was stunning. She personally set up the flowers on the morning of my wedding and even hung around to attach a beautiful custom flower arrangement to the back of my dress. Super sweet, talented, professional, and just all-​around fantastic person. I cannot recommend Stems highly enough! Thanks so much, Suzanna!

Wonderful experience. I called Wednesday afternoon about the possibility of getting flowers delivered the next day and they were all over it. Since it was a phone deal, I left the arrangement entirely up to them. They delivered them the next morning and knocked the arrangement out of the park. They were also very friendly and courteous over the phone. This will henceforth be my flower spot.

I always enjoy a quick chat with Suzanna when buying flowers. She always has a fun vibe and a great selection of interesting flowers. My partner and I are not much for roses and tend to like things more a tunned to aliens and such… :) If you want flowers that can also be conversation starters then go here. They are amazing!

Ditmas Park/​Kensington/​Flatbush/​Midwood People! Support your local neighborhood florist. You’ll be lucky if you get another Suzanna or Stems in your life. Aside from the fact that this is attached to a bar (major selling point), Suzanna, the owner, is the friendliest, kindest, most knowledgeable person about her shop and the flowers she offers. i go there regularly to get a bouquet or a few flowers and I’m always just so pleased with the service and the selection :) It’s super. Definitely, definitely worth checking out and perusing for a purchase.
