What our clients are saying about Amy Burke Designs.

"Amy was AMAZING. We were going to work with Floramor in San Francisco, but Amy was a bit more flexible with us. I am a Caucasian and married an Indian (the India kind), so we went all-out and wanted a COLORFUL, flower-y celebration, and Amy did a STUNNING job. We built life-sized elephants stuffed with roses, and she strung thousands of marigolds and rose petals. She provided over forty HUGE arrangements all in one day. She even made flower necklaces for the horse my husband rode in on. Everyone commented that it was the most exquisite wedding they had ever attended, and it was all due to Amy's hard work."
Sincerely,
Bodie and Neil

Amy and her crew did our wedding fairly recently, Nov 10, 2007 at the Half Moon Bay Golf Links and I can say, without a doubt, I had the most beautiful arrangements that I have ever seen at any wedding. Although I am biased because it was, of course, my wedding, she truly created the atmosphere that my husband and I had had imagined. Her bouquets were unlike any I've ever seen, beautifully and artfully created down to the last detail, including the binding ribbon finished with a copper touch. In fact, our venue was originally planned to be outdoors on the golf course and unfortunately we had to move the ceremony indoors due to unexpected rains - however, Amy was able to convert a bland, beige atrium into a gorgeous harvest fall day from the handmade flower covered archway, to the gorgeous pomander balls and runners leading the way to the alter. Furthermore, the rather plain reception area was transformed into a spectacular garden by the totally unique arrangements that Amy designed. I feel that Amy's hard work and dedication absolutely altered the atmosphere of my entire wedding from beginning to end. Aside from the actual flowers at the wedding ceremony and reception, Amy is truly an amazing person to work with. She was able to work closely with both my husband and me to create exactly what we were looking for even though many of our ideas were half-baked. She is an excellent listener, clear communicator and a talented artist. We could not have been more pleased with her services and we absolutely recommend her without hesitation!"

Amy's eye for total design, her creativity and her spunk make her a joy to work with. She is able to extract each client's unique vision and wedding dream, even if they don't always know themselves. I've seen her transform ballrooms, beaches, cakes and tables with the exact amount of both opulence and restraint, and always keeping her client's wishes at heart. I'm always excited to see what Amy comes up with next!"

Leeandra & Daniel

I just got back from my honeymoon so I didn't have a chance to get in touch with you right after the wedding, but all the flowers were absolutely beautiful. We loved them and so did all our guests. The centerpieces and the altar arrangements were stunning. The bouts and the corsages were gorgeous. All the girls looked great holding their bouquets and the little flower girl halos were darling. Thanks again!"
Sincerely,
Nicki Panoutsopoulos

I just wanted to send you a quick email to thank you again for the amazing job you did at our wedding. The flowers were UNBELIEVABLE! Everyone keeps telling us how beautiful they were, especially the ceremony and the chuppah! You are so talented!!!! A friend of mine even used one of the centerpieces for an engagement party at her fiancé's folks' place last Saturday night - a full week later! Thank you again for making everything so beautiful!

I am the founder and managing director of The WPES, held in March at the Ritz Carlton Half Moon Bay. I know you worked closely with Lee on our project, but I have been meaning to contact you directly. I wanted to introduce myself and thank you for creating the most absolutely fabulous flower arrangements for the conference. They really were just magnificent, and gave such character to the ballroom. It was a pleasure having you involved, and I hope we may work together next year (same place, same time!).
Thanks again, and best regards,
Beth

Wow! You did IT!!! The arrangements were gorgeous and they smelled so great. The Chuppah was Heaven. I just kept looking up and down, side to side at it. Just what we wanted!

Thank you so much for the beautiful, beautiful wedding flowers. You are truly creative and gifted and many of our guests kept asking about you and your services!

Thank you again so much. You were a treasure to work with and made the wedding exactly what it should be. Thanks and more thanks.
With love,

The wedding flowers were unbelievably beautiful and everyone kept talking about them--I don't think my mother's friends have stopped talking about them yet, six months later!
Thank you!
Torie and Todd

Thank you so much for the awesome job that you did for our wedding!!! I could not imagine anything better than what you did for us!! It was beautiful. The ceremony site was breathless. The arch was gorgeous and more than I expected.

I just wanted to tell you how absolutely floored I was by all your arrangements on Saturday!!! Everything was GORGEOUS!!!! It was all that I had hoped for and more. I was not feeling 100% "with it" when you stopped by the room but once the hair gal was finally done with me and I took a moment to really "see" my bouquet I was SO happy! I LOVE my bouquet!!! It is here with me still as I'm writing this. I want it by me all the time. :) It is absolutely perfect! And the girl's bouquets were exquisite as well. They looked perfect with their gowns. All the colors and flower choices for the bouquets and all the reception arrangements were right on! Just phenomenal! I could not be happier with everything you did for us. Thank you so much for adding that touch of beauty to our day. I will never forget how in love I was with my wedding flowers!!!

I have to tell you too that my mom just adores you. She was doubly thrilled with all your beautiful creations as well. The past couple of days after the wedding we have exchanged our thoughts on the whole day and I have to share her sentiments about you.... She can't stop raving about how much she loved all your flowers. Not only did she tell me "Amy is just charmingly wonderful" and say, quote, "I'm over the moon for Amy...I just love her!" but she also said she felt like now that it's all over she felt like she was losing friends because we wouldn't be working with you anymore!!! :) Needless to say, she loved working with you! :) Oh, and the little piece of "art" you made out for her clutch....WOW!!! You're too cool Amy! Thanks again for everything!!!

I haven't sat down to write you about the flowers you did for our wedding on June 21st, mostly because I wanted to find the right words. It's hard to put all the compliments, admiration, and awe into an e-mail or card. My guests (and my family - women from Texas who are stingy with their flowers compliments) were so impressed. Everything was beautiful. I have never seen so many wedding guests taking pictures of flower arrangements, or talking about them at work on the Monday after the wedding. I loved everything, from the table arrangements to the tea tin arrangements, to the bouquets and bouts. They were perfection. I was thrilled about how you took all the abstract ideas we had talked about (all my thematic mumbo-jumbo) and turned the venue into exactly what I had been picturing. Everything was unique, exquisitely crafted, and thoughtfully arranged. You did such a great job utilizing the wood boxes and tea tins we provided, and it was nice to work with someone so flexible on alternative containers (and ideas in general). Also, you and your team was incredibly responsive throughout the design and preparation process, answering questions I had and providing advice. Everything was delivered as ordered, on time and looking fabulous.

I could go on and on, but mostly I just wanted you to know how talented you are, how privileged I was to work with you, and how easy you made the whole process for me.
Thanks again Amy, and best wishes,
Kathryn

I just wanted to say thank you for the amazing and beautiful flowers on Sunday. They were breathtaking and far exceeded my expectations. And I had pretty high expectations. :-) Everyone was commenting on how beautiful it all was, especially the chuppah! I really appreciate all of your hard work and creativity. If a potential client of yours ever needs a recommendation, please feel free to have them give me a call or email and I'll give you a glowing review!
Thanks again!
Shannon

I just wanted to let you know how wonderful all of our flowers looked for our wedding. I couldn't keep my eyes off of them. I had so many people come up to me through out the evening to say that they have never seen such vibrant and stunning flowers at any other event they have been to. Our ceremony flowers made the room look as though I was walking in a movie set. We were so happy with how everything turned out. Thank you so much for everything!! Your flowers made our wedding day so much more special. Thank You!
Sheena & Ty

I wanted to share some of my wedding photos with you and your team. From one simple conversation, you got my "deep fall colors (w/some funkiness)" theme to a tee. The flowers were absolutely perfect and astounded the crowd (one of the orchid collectors in the group was thrilled with the flowers). When I show my pictures to people, one of the first things I say is "I LOVE my flowers!". I did, and still do. It made my day. Kudos to you and your team. My flowers were perfect! I will recommend you forever!
Best,
Karen
