    Stunning florals

    What can I say? Mel is the best. He is so sweet natured and easy going. He is incredibly talented with all florals and so knowledgeable about which flowers go together, are available, pricing / alternatives for cheaper options, etc. He also doesn’t try to nickel and dime you for everything. I had many floral quotes and not only was Mel the post reasonably priced florist, his flowers are so fresh and lasted over a week after our wedding. I am so thankful we used him and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a florist.

    Fabulous vendor!

    Mel was fantastic to work with from our initial meeting through the wedding day. He was able to get all of the flowers we were hoping to use in our arrangements and the final product was absolutely stunning! He is very flexible and responsive and a true pleasure to work with throughout the process. I'd highly recommend booking him!

    Beautiful Flowers, A pleasure to work with!

    Mel Day was an absolute pleasure to work with. He created a stunning presentation of lush flowers with just the right blends of colors. He delivered the flowers just where they needed to be, for both the ceremony and the reception. I even got an extra bouquet to toss, so I could keep my own! My bouquet also doubled as a centerpiece for the sweetheart table :-) The flowers were so gorgeous that I even tried my hand at preserving them!

    Mel was easy to work with and did such a beautiful job with the flowers for our wedding. He provided suggestions when we were unsure of what exactly we wanted, and also worked to accommodate specific requests. The flowers turned out absolutely beautifully and we received many compliments. His prices are very reasonable for the quality of service he delivers. Definitely recommend!!!

    Mel is amazing. His flowers were perfect and beautiful for the wedding. This was the one thing I knew we didn't have to worry about, having worked with him before. He crafted the most perfect and beautiful chuppah for us! Since we were in the science museum, we wanted a natural look and and it was lovely with branches twining around the tree limbs. Then he lit it with candles so that it had soft light around it. It was a beautiful scene! The bouquets and table arrangements were filled with color and he added rosemary which added a lovely scent. I will definitely work with Mel again. I'd give him a 10 on the scale!

    Mel is amazing! He is kind, thoughtful, and flexible with his time and floral creations. He made our wedding look stunning and was willing to drive back and forth between Durham and Raleigh to set up our arrangements. You should definitely book with Mel for a beautiful and reasonable wedding florist!

    Mel did a great job. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for flowers for an event. He was very responsive and knows his product well. We weren't super sure about certain kinds of flowers and he walked us through the flowers showing us pictures and descriptions. He helped make our decision easier. People were commenting all night about the wonderful flower arrangements and bouquets.

    Mel was amazing. I walked into my reception venue before the wedding and had to hold back tears. It was so beautiful. He did such an amazing job on the ceremony flowers, reception flowers and on all of the bouquets. I definitely recommend him to anyone and everyone :)

    I cant say enough good things about Mel Day and Dogwood tree Floral Designs! I have already recommended him to several other brides!
    I came to Mel with a lot of criteria, I wanted big, extravagant and nontraditional centerpieces with lots of gold… but of course it had to be economical. Mel’s creativity and personal attentiveness made my vision come true! He understands that brides have a budget and respectfully works within that budget to create arrangements that look rich and elegant. Mel came up with a lot of little creative ideas, like filling glass cylinders with gold sprayed greens and adding little embellishments that personalized the arrangements. He really went above and beyond. My guests surly noticed as well, as I received numerous complements on them. Thank you, Mel! You were truly a pleasure to work with!

    Mel Day with Dogwood Floral has done flowers for 2 weddings in our family. He is more reliable than most, does exceptionally beautiful work, and is flexible and friendly to work with. He gets my highest recommendation.

    Our flowers were beautiful and very reasonably priced. We met with the florist twice in person, and he was very quick to respond to my emails and phone calls. In addition to the bouquets, flower girl baskets, and boutonniere, he also coordinated aisle markers, ceremony, and reception decorations.

    Mel was wonderful to work with. He really listened to what we wanted. Everything on our wedding day was EXACTLY what we wanted, if not better than we could have imagined. He is extremely easy to work with and is a true professional. Very flexible and is very reasonable in pricing. I would highly recommend this company.

    Mel was amazing!!! I am so lucky I found him to do our wedding flowers! I read his other raving reviews and agree wholeheartedly with them. Mel is a joy to work with, and his expertise was invaluable when he gave me suggestions. One of my main concerns was finding a florist who was budget-friendly, and not only did Mel adhere to my budget, but his creations really surpassed my expectations when I saw them on my wedding day!! I really don't think you can find others who can offer the same quality of work for what he charges. I was blown away by the beauty of his creations and would recommend him to all my friends!

    Mel Day at Dogwood Tree Floral Designs was a pleasure to work with. Every single arrangement he made for our wedding day was perfect and even more beautiful than I had hoped for. I chose to do very simple, all white flowers and Mel never tried to talk me into something more elaborate or more expensive. He just created exactly what I had envisioned and was VERY affordable. He was so easy to work with and I could not have been happier with my bouquets, centerpieces and all of the arrangements that Mel created for our wedding day!

    Mel was amazing! He is very professional, creative and dependable. He knew what I wanted and wasn't pushy or trying to sell me something I didn't want. He was very responsive and prompt to answer any questions. His work was very affordable as well. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants a beautiful arrangement.

    Where do I begin? My husband and I were married during the ice/snow storm in Raleigh on January 30, 2010. We were SO FORTUNATE to have Mel Day from Dogwood Tree Florist arrange our flowers. He even stayed the night in downtown Raleigh the night before our wedding to make sure our flowers were there for the big day, no matter what! We have received so many compliments on our flowers. They turned out beautiful! Thanks Mel for making our special day so beautiful!!!!!

    Dogwood Tree Floral Designs helped me create a beautiful and unique wedding. They took my ideas and offered me several suggestions for bouquets, ceremony decor, and centerpieces. I never would have been able to do that on my own! We still get people commenting on how stunning our centerpieces were at the wedding.

    As the Mom-of-the-Bride...working with Mel Day was delightful from the very first meeting, through the stresses of planning a wedding from out of state, to the magical catch-your-breath surprise of seeing his creations on site, right on to the clean up end of my daughter's perfect day.
    Smiling, reassuring, professional, affordable, a total "we can do that" attitude backed by over 30 years experience...Mel and his team at Dogwood Tree Floral Designs gave us a FABULOUS artful display matched only by the excitement and joy of the bride and groom. Thank you so much!

    Mel could have done our flowers with his eyes closed, he is that good. He thinks of everything. Everything was set up for us, hassel free- ready to go! Mel knew what we wanted as soon as we walked in and gave him the names of our other vendors. He has an awesome personality and is really easy to work with!
