My husband and I worked with Rita from Jarita’s florist for our wedding flowers. She created two arrangements for our arbor, all of the boutonnieres, bouquets, sweetheart table arrangement, and floral rings around lanterns. During the planning process she was super responsive through phone and email. She was also kind enough to meet with us in person twice to discuss ideas. We didn’t know names of specific flowers- just had a vibe and color scheme in mind. She was able to take our vague vision and make it into a piece of art. She is very detail oriented too (for example she gathered photos of my dress, the bridal parties' dresses/suits, lanterns, etc in order to ensure everything would blend nicely). What she designed was better than anything I could have pictured. My bridal bouquet was my absolute favorite, far more beautiful than any bouquet I have ever seen. Our wedding day was gray and rainy but Rita’s floral arrangements made the wedding feel colorful. I highly recommend Jar... Read moreita's Florist!

Absolutely gorgeous florals! Exactly what I was looking for!

Amazing and beautiful flowers. Always willing to accommodate the customer!!!

Rita is fantastic! She patiently listening to my initial very vague ideas about what I wanted for my outdoorsy 10/14 wedding, helped me form them into a coherent thought and then made the reality ever better. My flower crown was absolute perfection and the centerpieces were possibly my favorite part of the wedding (maybe close second to actually getting married). I cannot recommend her enough!

I cannot say enough good things about Rita. When I first was looking to book a florist, she talked me through her process over the phone and helped me talk through what I wanted even though I was still lacking a few important details! She gave me different options to help keep me within budget and was incredibly understanding about keeping things within my budget during the entire process. We met with her in person closer to the wedding and she showed us different options of flowers within our color scheme and looked through my Pinterest page with us to make sure she was capturing the right feel. We ended up having her make the corsages, boutonnieres, and bouquets and we DIYed the table centerpieces with her guidance. I wanted peonies in the arrangements and Rita told me she could source them from Alaska if needed and helped me choose other flowers for the table arrangements to help keep the costs down. As the wedding approached, she emailed me to let me know peony season went later th... Read morean usual this year and she was able to more cheaply get peonies for all of the arrangements! I cannot even describe how beautiful the bouquets were - my photographer said the bridal bouquet was one of the best she'd ever seen. The colors were vibrant and really brought out the summery vibe. It was really exactly as I imagined and actually looked like all of the swoon-worthy bouquets I had been looking at on Pinterest. She even included a packet of flower petals as an extra gift. All of the arrangements still looked beautiful and fresh at the brunch the next day and we ended up giving them away so folks could continue to enjoy them in the days to come. You will not be disappointed working with Rita - she really is the best!

From the beginning, Rita's enthusiasm and attention to detail was exactly what we were looking for when planning a wedding. Her experience, knowledge and suggestions during our first meeting was extremely helpful. Our floral arrangements were beautiful and even better than we had envisioned. Rita personally came to us on our wedding day to make sure everything was perfect. Thank you Rita! Photos by Jessica Mae Photography

Working with Jarita’s Florist was one of the absolute best decisions we made for our wedding. The flowers were extraordinary- unlike anything I’d seen before at friend’s weddings, and truly went above and beyond our vision for what flowers could add to a wedding. I met with the co-owner, Rita, a few times before the wedding to align on our vision for the flowers. Rita was knowledgeable, patient, kind, and spent a lot of time really getting to know my husband and I and our vision for our wedding so that she could create flowers that really suited us, our energy, and our vision. I certainly gave her a challenge- I had very little personal knowledge about flowers, three colors of bridesmaid dresses to match to, and only a few pictures of arrangements I had seen and liked. Rita was absolutely spot-on with her recommendations and created extraordinary bouquets, boutonnieres, chuppah arrangements and centerpieces. Everything matched perfectly, the colors popped against the landsc... Read moreape for our outdoor wedding, and the flowers looked natural and truly unique to us. We were also working with quite a limited budget, but you would never know it from the arrangements Rita created. She was extremely respectful of our budget, there were no surprises, and the delivery and set-up of flowers was thorough, on-time, and extremely professional- done by Rita herself along with her helpers. I cannot recommend Jarita’s enough- I had never previously considered myself the type to fall in love with flowers, and Jarita’s changed that! Our flowers truly stand out in our photos and we will be forever grateful to Rita and her team for bringing so much love, personal attention, and beauty to our wedding!

We used Jarita's Florist for our wedding on September 4, 2016. Rita is amazing and did a phenomenal job with our flowers. Our colors were purple and orange and everything she chose went together beautifully. I was blown away when I saw my bouquet for the first time-it was stunning. I had asked Rita to include charms with pictures of my Dad and two dogs that are no longer with us and she made it look lovely. The compliments on the flowers continued well after the wedding. Rita is prompt in her responses, very flexible if something comes up and the price was extremely fair. All in all, our experience with Jarita's Florist was flawless!

I was in the Woodstock area while visiting my wedding venue in the Catskills when I stumbled upon Jarita’s Florist. I had originally planned on buying flowers in bulk from somewhere like Costco or Sam’s, but it was a couple of months before my wedding and I still hadn’t quite finalized it all, so I decided to go into Jarita’s and get a quote. Rita spend 45 mins talking to me and finding out exactly what my wedding vision was and when she showed me some picture samples on her iPad I said wow, that one is exactly like the one I have pinned on my Pinterest board! ;) We then figured out what they could do to work with me on my budget because since I hadn’t originally budgeted for a florist I wasn’t willing to spend very much. She was very helpful and figured how to substitute some flowers to get the cost down to a price I was happy with. Since I was traveling to the wedding from NJ they were flexible on the pickup time and even loaned me buckets for transporting the flowers and...

We used Jarita's Florist for our wedding in May and would not hesitate to recommend them. Rita was absolutely wonderful to work with, even though we were planning the wedding from out of town. She listened carefully to our ideas, and then expanded on them to create an absolutely beautiful archway, bouquets and centerpieces for our wedding. Her arrangements were unique and fun, perfectly matching the feel we wanted on the day. We loved working with her and would not hesitate to go back to her in the future!

A month ago when our daughter got married outside at a private home we used Jarita's Florist for our flowers and we couldn't be happier!!! Rita really got the idea of how we wanted everything to look and she made great suggestions. Everything was so gorgeous! The table arrangements were perfect in their pink "vases", the Arbor was just right with the mountains in the background, it just complimented everything, and the standing arrangements were glorious. When the ceremony was over we moved many of the arbor arrangements to the Sweetheart table and it so completed their table. We really loved the combination of flowers and colors!!!

Rita's flowers for my wedding earlier this month were absolutely gorgeous. During our consultation she reviewed my pinterest board of potential wedding florals and took many notes about which flowers and colors I liked, and offered input about what would work with our wedding colors. She also had a very detailed questionnaire which I filled out, to ensure that her vision matched up with mine. I had planned on greenery and purple flowers only, but she suggested adding peach flowers, which turned out brilliantly. I adored my bouquet, the centerpieces, the bouts, and the floral arrangements on our ceremony arch. Her prices were also extremely reasonable -- far more reasonable than the other local options for my venue, and her work was just as beautiful if not better than their work. Choosing her as my wedding florist was one of the best decisions I made for our wedding.

I was very disappointed with my experience with Jaritas florist. I live in manhattan and was looking for a florist to make unique flowers for our intimate wedding in Tannersvlle. The flowers she provided were nothing like the inspiration photos we discussed - they were not unique in any way. To be honest I feel scammed because over the phone she sounded like she understood our vision and said she would make my bouquet similar to the photos, but the flowers were nothing like we talked about. It was sad bc it's was our wedding day and by the time she dropped them off it was too late to buy others. I also did not appreciate her attitude when she dropped off the flowers. The venue was 30 mins late and she snapped at me saying she had three more weddings today. Maybe forist shouldn't overbook and provide friendly services? Not to mention, I sent her an email providing my feedback and never got a response from her - very rude. It was a happy day and her lack of patience was extremely unnece... Read moressary.

I recently used Jarita's for my wedding flowers and had a really great experience. I ordered a flower crown, bride's bouquet, boutonnieres, and garland only, as well as some cut flowers. Every piece she created was very beautiful and better than I could have imagined. Rita was a pleasure to work with and really listened to what I wanted. I'm a very particular bride who knows what she wants and Rita was able to execute the Pinterest-worthy look that I was hoping for. She nailed the whimsical woodsy aesthetic perfectly. The price was fair as well. Highly recommended!
