Kind Words

Yona is an amazing person with incredible taste and talent. The wedding she helped create for us was beautiful beyond our dreams, and so many guests commented that they’d never been to such a beautiful and tasteful wedding. If I ever have another big event to put together, I will call her in a heartbeat.

DIVYA KISHORE
“Not just a fantastic florist, but a designer with beautiful vision especially if you’re going for the more natural, organic look. Her work is just simply beautiful and her team is dedicated. For instance our wedding was the day after an ice storm and they were still there at the venue that morning. Plus she’s super friendly and customer service is on point. You will be very far from disappointed!!”

Yona was a dream to work with. She heard what our wedding color palette was, saw one inspo picture, and went to town. Our wedding guests were floored by her designs and could not stop commenting on how unique and beautiful the flowers were. Would recommend Yona for any event!!

KELLEY UTT
“Yona was absolutely fantastic to work with! At our very first meeting where she presented her proposal based on my (very limited) ideas/direction, she nailed everything I wanted and imagined perfectly. Leading up to the wedding day, she was so easy to work with and very quick to respond. I couldn’t wait to see her final masterpiece at the ceremony and reception and was blown away first by my amazing bouquet, then by the stunning table settings and every single detail throughout the whole day. I have gotten so many compliments about how beautiful the day was and want to send endless thanks to Yona and her team.”

KATIE SCHRAUDENBACH
“Where do I even begin? The wedding was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined, and it was all thanks to you! You did a fantastic job…You were so wonderful to work with, and you made the day everything that I could have hoped for! I plan on using you for any event in the future that requires beautiful flowers! I can’t thank you enough for what you did! It was PERFECT!!!”

LEAH KAHN

“Fabulous! Beautiful! Breathtaking! The flowers at our wedding were perfect. I hadn’t put it together until I got to the reception that we wouldn’t actually see each other on the wedding day. You and your team were gone before I arrived. I wanted to tell you thank you or your flawless execution. Plus we got many compliments on the rehearsal dinner flowers too. Thanks again! “

Beth and Michael Farmsworth

“Thank you for making our wedding the most beautiful day! You went above and beyond and left us speechless! Everyone is still talking about the flowers!”

Olivia Warren

“Flowers by Yona went above and beyond to make our wedding vision a reality. She did not simply create our beautiful floral arrangements, she helped us craft a design that worked with our vibe and our venue. Yona and her team transformed an expansive reception hall into an intimate overgrown-garden party for the enjoyment of our guests. Yona’s flowers were truly a highlight of the wedding day for me, but working with her in the months leading up to it was a highlight of the planning process. Yona poured heaps of creativity, hard work, and communication into the project from day one and that made trusting her so easy. Working with Yona was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding.”

Margaret Morrison

“Working with you was a pleasure. You are a great listener and I marvel at your ability to strike the perfect balance between the bride and her mother.  We were all so thrilled to see our vision come together so beautifully. I love when people ask me for a recommendation because sharing your name is like giving a friend a valuable gift. Thank you for all you did to create a magical evening. “

Sara Franco

“Wanted to thank you for all your help making the wedding so beautiful and exactly what Rebecca wanted. It looked AMAZING ! You did such a great job I could not have asked for anything more beautiful!!”

Kathy Lewis

“From the time I met Yona, I knew she was going to be my florist. She took the dream I was envisioning for my wedding and made it so much better than anything I could imagine! My breath was taken completely away when I saw all of the flowers! Every detail was perfect, and carefully looked at for my classy summer wedding to the love of my life! She added vintage charm and romance with her perfect choice of flowers for our big day. I loved my arrangements so much that they were in my house until they completely crumbled to pieces. Yona is very detail oriented and ever so helpful throughout the whole process of planning a wedding. Not only did I hire a florist but I made a dear friend. Thank you so much for everything! “

Elizabeth Morgan

“I absolutely loved your work. Everything from the flower balls to the dogs collars to the table arrangements were gorgeous. Thank you so much for the effort you put into our day, it was perfect!”

Caroline Yarborough

“Thank you SO much for helping to make our wedding perfect. Everything looked beyond incredible… the floral arrangements, candles, linens, drapes… everything! You truly have a talent!”

Erin Kelley

“Yona is the best!! She’s easy to work with, has incredible talent, a great eye, and did everything she could to make sure she executed our vision completely! All of our guests were super impressed with our flowers and table landscapes as well. I’d use her and recommend her a million times over.”

Daryl Schulman

“Just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your amazing work for Danielle’s wedding…
The chuppah, atrium, ballroom, linens, variety of table decorations, florals…all just perfect!  You definitely captured the “simple elegance” that we were looking for (and countless guests made those exact comments!)

“It was a pleasure to work with you!”

Emily Ra’ed

“Flowers by Yona and her team are absolutely amazing! They not only took my initial ideas and made them so much better than I could have ever imagined but also suggested ideas that I would have never thought of but absolutely loved. Yona is great at event design as well, making sure the whole picture is cohesive and beautiful. Her style is very organic and natural. Could not be happier with our decision to go with Flowers by Yona!”

MAGGIE WOLICKI

“Yona brought to our daughter’s wedding the beautiful results of months of planning for our special event. She has many gifts that she easily shared such as her ability to listen and hear our hopes and dreams. She was open to all ideas suggested by me and also reached out to our daughter who lives in another city to find out what her wishes were. With her keen eye for detail and beauty as well as amazing knowledge of flowers, she transformed our daughter’s home into a gorgeous and elegant setting for the wedding. Yona exhibited her kindness and professionalism many times throughout our months of working together. Every phone call, email or text was answered promptly and she always had a solution to any problem I might have imagined. Yona created a beautiful wedding and quite literally sprinkled her magic throughout our daughter’s home inside as well as outside by the family pool. I loved how she could envision where everything was going to go and because of her ability to explain every detail to me, she earned my confidence and trust during our very first meeting. To rate the value of the cost of Yona’s floral arrangements, decorating skills and true professionalism in one word would be… priceless. She is a gifted person and we’re thrilled she could share her many talents with us on such a very special occasion.”

Robin Medintz

“Yona’s designs and overall demeanor is what set her apart from other vendors we considered. She is creative, but still follows your own style. She made great suggestions throughout the planning process of things she thought we should consider (even outside of flowers), and we felt confident leading up to the wedding day that our floral would be perfect…and it was! She was such a delight to work with, even allowed me to tweak my bouquet the day of (had a change of heart). I am so happy we chose Yona for our floral and I would highly recommend her! She went above and beyond her ‘call of duty’ and I hope I’ll have another opportunity to work with her in the future! Thanks Yona for making our day BEAUTIFUL!!”

Lindsey Reissig

“I don’t want to say that Yona is a mind reader…but she actually might be. I had a very specific vision in my head when I was thinking about the decor for my wedding: lush white flowers complemented with bursts of blush and light pink, soft candlelight, and an overall light and romantic feel. Yona took that vision and flawlessly executed it. However, not only did she listen to me, but she also gave her (welcome) expert opinion in order to create an absolutely stunning event. Everything was perfect and I don’t say that lightly. Yona is a true professional and an expert at what she does!”

Sammi Sinsheimer

“Danny and I would like to thank you for the beautiful flower design job you did at our wedding. The centerpieces on the tables, the standing flower arrangements by the Chuppah, and my lovely bouquet were absolutely stunning; in fact, the reception hall employees said it one of the prettiest weddings they had seen! Our friends and relatives could not stop commenting on the gorgeous flowers, the meticulous color selection, and the perfect combination with the atmosphere of the wedding hall.

“Your flower designs were exactly what I had envisioned for my wedding: classic and warm elegance. You understood my taste from the very beginning and worked with me intensively over the course of many months to reach the perfect reenactment of my dream. More than anything, you were a great source of advice and support in the planning of my wedding. You helped me with every single decision related to the venue’s overall design, seating arrangements, pricing choices, and so much more.

“I am so lucky to have had the chance to work with a professional of such impeccable taste and kind disposition. I truly hope we have a chance to work together again someday.”

Daniella Tourgeman

“Thank you Yona for making our day truly beautiful! You outdid yourself and captured the vision far better than I could ever articulate it. Thank you for helping make our dreams come true!!!”

Caroline and Folabi Dokun

“We used the services of Ms. Yona Benstock for the floral decoration of the Bar Mitzvah event of our son, in 2012. The work she did was magnificent: the design as well as the quality and beauty of the products she used. We have to add that during the project, especially during the event itself, the timetable was strictly respected, and the service was of the highest quality.”
