WEDDING TESTIMONIALS

Thank you so much for the bridal and reception flowers for my wedding at the Royal Marine Museum. My bouquet was stunning and all the flowers were far more beautiful than I imagined. We were very pleased with them. It was also good to meet with you in person and explain exactly what we wanted. I will certainly bear you in mind for future events and would gladly recommend you to friends and family.
Thank  you again

The day was perfect and the flowers were beautiful.  Rowans Hospice were very appreciative also, so your flowers kind of did two jobs! The flower petals were also put to good use and I appreciate how resourceful you had to be at very short notice. I realised after the wedding that I had in fact used your services before when I ordered some balloons to be delivered and your service was excellent then as well.
For the purposes of your website I would have to say that the floral arrangements were stunning, especially the stands.  I loved what you did with the swags/flowers on the balcony also, in fact I've attached some photos for you to add to your portfolio.  Best Regards

Thank you for the balloon décor for my wedding reception at the Holiday Inn.  They were beautiful and most professionally done.
Vickie Jones - Portsmouth

GFAB came highly recommended by our wedding planner. I wasn't disappointed. When Tricia and I met up to discuss my requirements, I was so confused about what I wanted but she helped a great deal and worked with me until we arrived at something quite nice! Then came the wedding day - as I walked into the reception, I was so overwhelmed! It was much grander than I expected. The room was beautiful and elegantly decorated and I Ioved the attention to detail she put into it. It really made the day such a memorable one- we still get friends saying how beautiful our reception decor was.
Nkechi - The Banqueting Suite, Finchley

Thank you so much for all your help and efforts with our wedding display.  The reception  room looked brilliant, everybody commented on just how good it looked and Martin and I were thrilled when we walked in.  The two bouquets and four button holes were super too, the photographer took some wonderful photo's of the room and our bouquets so we have those to look back on. Thankyou once again, you helped to make our day so special and you were so helpful when we first came to meet you, I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone wanting a floral/balloon display. Thanks Tricia, you're brilliant.
Tracey & Martin - Holiday Inn, Camden

Rachel - The Bat & Bull, Clanfield

Thank you for making my wedding day so special. Your input towards the theme and colour scheme for the day was invaluable. Thanks for your imagination and indeed patience! GF&B organised the arrangements for the car, pews ends, bridal flowers and table centrepieces at the hotel. On the day, I was so impressed, I was moved to tears.   My wedding flowers and reception décor far exceeded my expectations! The Lilly vase and Martini vase centrepieces simply transformed the venue, I could go on and on…. To describe my wedding in one word, I'd say classy. Wow! Wow! Wow! I was so  happy. Tricia helped make our day unforgettable.  Having had the experience, I would recommend Glorious flowers & Balloons to anyone for their personal touch and excellence. Thank you again, Tricia for making our day.
Sylvia Wilson - Fairfield Hall, Croydon

Our wedding flowers were wonderful and we really appreciated the time, effort and care that Tricia went into planning with us the colours and style to get the flowers just perfect on the day. They really did set the scene for our African and Asian themed wedding, and brought colour and a flavour of the exotic to the whole day and had a real wow factor that many of our guests talked about afterwards.
Emma & Tom - Hollybank House, Emsworth

Words cannot express our delight and gratitude for my beautiful flowers and exquisite table centres for our wedding.  You simply ‘transformed a desert into an oasis!’
Tony & Tanya Orjih -  Garth Hotel, Golders Green

I was very pleased with the service provided by Tricia from my bouquet, bridal flowers, through to the hall decor and floral arrangements, it was beautiful; I couldn’t have imagined a more wonderful layout. There was such a high level of professionalism, timeliness and I really wasn’t  surprised ‘cos from the first consultation I knew I was in the right hands, everything was the way I wanted, I didn’t have to say much at all, she just understood what I wanted!  
Bola A. -  Brent Town Hall, Wembley

The balloons were great and just added that finishing touch.  I have managed to find one photo with me, one of my bridesmaids and the balloons.  My professional photographer has taken a couple too and I will forward those to you once I receive the CD of images.
 'Glorious Flowers and Balloons provided a great service, advising me and making realistic suggestions.  They were delivered swiftly and the balloons looked gorgeous in the marquee.'Thank you again
 Jenny Jones -  Lyndhurst Park Hotel, New Forest

Glorious Flowers & Balloons added the final touches to our wedding day at such short notice. The decor was much more than I had imagined it would look- our day was so perfect - thankyou so much for being a part of it.
I will recommend you at the drop of a hat and will no doubt be in touch when we arrange our anniversaries! Thanks again Tricia.

On behalf of Breast Cancer Care, thank you once again for all your hard work at our Petworth House Ribbon Walk on Saturday 27 June 2009.
It was great to see you and thank you for getting up so early to decorate our venue! You did a fabulous job as ever and the site looked really stunning. We used some of the spare balloons to mark the last mile around the lake for the finish line and it looked great. So thank you.
We hope the Petworth House Ribbon Walk will raise over £300,000 for Breast Cancer Care. I am sure you will agree this is an amazing sum, and will go along way to making a difference to the lives of people affected by breast cancer. Your contribution has helped make this possible.
Thank you once again and we will be in touch soon when we have a date for 2010! Best wishes
Lucy Thomson - Breast Cancer Care 2009

I just wanted to send you a huge thank you! For the gorgeous bouquet of flowers you so kindly donated for our raffle at the celebration event last night to mark the Roberts Centre becoming an independent organisation. The event was a huge success and many people commented that they’d have loved to have won the flowers! We raised over £300 in the raffle which will pay for two children’s parties over the summer to involve them in the celebrations.
Lots of people also admired the table centrepieces, so they were a big hit as well! 
Thanks again for your generous donation, and for all your help in delivering the centrepieces at such short notice; it was very much appreciated! Very best wishes,
Ursula – First Wessex Housing Group

Thank-you for the excellent job you and your colleagues did at the De Vere, S'oton for the Wildern School Prom.  I thought it was excellent as did all the people I have spoken to since the night! 
Apparently the kitchen staff came out to have a look and said to our Head of Year that they see these events day in day out but that was the best the room has ever looked!
I have already forwarded your name onto the next Head of Year so brace yourself for another go at the DeVere...he is also getting married so you never know!Thanks again! 
Alex Strickland - Grand Harbour De Vere, Southampton

Thank you also for a super job for our 20th Anniversary at the Audley's Wood Hotel, Basingstoke. The marquee looked great on the night with the colourful

PARTY CELEBRATION CLIENTS

My daughter's Sweet Sixteen birthday party at the Scotch Bar in Windsor, went without a hitch. Cake was more impressive than anticipated, timing was spot on, and yes, the bespoke balloons were well received, a nice finishing touch to a well arranged bash!
My daughter Luci was beside herself!

Thanks, and yes, I would definitely recommend and use your services again.
Kind regards.
Leslie Kane - The Scotch Bar, Windsor

We were delighted with our balloon's and flowers for our engagement party. I was amazed that from our brief meeting you were able to deliver exactly what we wanted and  with your help and guidance we were able to create the look we wanted. I was also over whelmed that you were willing to rearrange your holiday to be able to accommodate our needs. You'll also be pleased to know that I received an email from the Spinnaker Tower to say that they were really impressed with your service and your displays and will be recommending your company to future spinnaker users.
Thank you again for all your help and I'll have no hesitation in recommending you to all my friends, family and anyone else that may need your services.

Your table arrangement for Shabbat was simply stunning! Thank you.
Miriam Kraus - Stamford Hill  

We were so delighted with the ‘desert theme’ decorations for our Bar Mitzvah celebration. Thank you for your tireless efforts and enthusiasm in making both days a joy to behold.  The cactus plants and exotic flowers were much admired by all.
Bayla Perrin - Golders Green

You made my 40th birthday bash a most memorable event.  Your unique balloon decorations were the talk of the evening. I especially loved the banner made out of balloons! I was truly blessed.
Bola O.- Quality Hotel, Excel

Thank you for the lovely flowers and balloon decorations you did for our 25th Wedding anniversary celebration. They simply transformed our house and garden. We will not hesitate to recommend your services to friends and family.
Miriam - Edgeware, Middx

Many thanks for making Mum and Dad's day even more special!
 All morning Mum was saying how the pub didn't know it was anything more than a family get together - and how she didn't want a fuss!  I thought I was going to be in so much trouble...  When we arrived we could see the balloons from the car park, and Mum commented "Ooh look someone is having a 60th birthday party at the same time!"  When they showed us to the table, both her and Dad were completely overwhelmed. 
 It was good that we weren't in the main bar, and the room looked lovely.  I must admit, I had no idea the balloons were going to be quite that big, but they looked smashing and my 2 great-nephews had great fun playing with them after lunch!
 Having 3 flower arrangements was perfect.  Mum has 2 surviving bridemaids, so they left with flowers and Mum had hers.  The flowers are still being commmented on now!
 Tricia, you did a great job - thank you so much.  It was partly undrestated and partly fun - which is exactly what I wanted.  Your suggestions to confetti on the table added the "icing on the cake"
 Again, many thanks and kind regards,
 Liz Insull - The Hogs Lodge, Clanfield

Just a note to say that the balloons for my Birthday/Anniversary celebration were so lovely. They transformed the room.
