    Stunning work

    John was amazing from day one, very attentive. Completely captured the simplistic beauty I wanted in my flowers! He even brought the most gorgeous props including the cupcake tree and our stunning Chuppa.

    John was absolutely fantastic at our wedding. He did an incredible job with my bouquet, bridal party, chuppah and centerpieces. Furthermore, John was very flexible regarding payment and pricing. I couldn't be happier with John's dedication, talent and professionalism!

    John just recently did the flowers for our daughter's wedding and rehearsal dinner. We couldn't have been more pleased. Not only is he a very creative artist, he is just a wonderful person.

    There is an old saying " under promise and over perform" That very aptly describes John. He is a true professional and in the midst of the usual wedding chaos, he was a great calming influence.

    Thank you!

    John is an impressive talent/eye for coordination. He not only did the flower coordination, but came out to help us pick the linens with our caterer. John has a big heart and is very flexible and will work within your price range. At the last minute we also needed him to provide some flowers for our rehearsal dinner, and he came through and did it on the cheap (so we would not blow our wedding budget). The flowers were so nice that we used them for the brunch! John also does gel up-lighting, hoopahs, curtains, and isle-runners.
    John is courteous, professional, and caring. We told him the colors we wanted, and let him do his magic. There was a mixture of high flowers and low flower arrangements that gave a pleasant look to the eye. People thought we spent more than we actually did.

    You can't go wrong with JKG!! He has amazing ideas and still listens to your inputs. He is extremely easy to talk to and is very genuine, he is like a close friend who is helping with wedding planning; he really cares! He was even flexible to change color scheme of my center pieces three days before the wedding! (sorry John!) The centerpieces were so full and gorgeous! My family and friends were raving about the flowers during and even after the wedding!

    Thank you John, I would recommend you to my friends without any hesitation!

    I can not say enough about John and his talented staff. Everyone raved about my ceremony and reception flowers, they were absolutely stunning. I had known I was in good hands with him throughout the whole year of planning for my wedding, but he still exceeded my expectations by far. I am very picky when it comes to event decor and floral arrangements, but John conceptualized my vision and executed it flawlessly. He also did so much more than flowers, from lighting to designing an outdoor lounge and much more, everything was spectacular. I highly recommend John to anyone who wants to leave a lasting impression for themselves and their guests and who also wants to work with a pleasant professional and an exceptional artist.

    This is the email I sent to John Kevin after my wedding. He was a magician and a FABULOUS vendor to work with! All of his suggestions were right on point and I have never seen flowers as beautiful as the ones he put together for the wedding. They lasted nearly a week after the event was over! I give him my highest recommendation.
    Dear John Kevin,
    There are no words to thank you for the way you transformed the horticulture center on Saturday night into my dream wedding venue. The place was absolutely gorgeous and I couldn't believe my eyes when I walked in!! You really made it come alive and I am forever grateful. I have sung your praises to all of my friends so hopefully you get some additional business out of this, but you will certainly be florist to the Braff/Herman family for life!!
    We could not be more thrilled with the work you did. You are truly fabulous to work with!!
    Thank you!!!!

    John gallagher's flower arrangements for my wedding were beyond my expectations. The flowers were gorgeous and beautifully arranged. John has exquisite taste and is a pleasure to work with. He is extremely professional and responsive. I will definitely use him for my next event. This is the second time John has arranged the flowers for a family celebration and I could not be more pleased.

    I could not be happier with the flowers at my wedding. The centerpieces were beautiful, beyond my expectations. We had high and low centerpieces and both were gorgeous. I also received many complements on the bouquets. Mine was white with a touch of color and the bridesmaids were orange and peach which were beautiful. Highly recommend.

    Words cannot truly express just how beautiful JKG made my wedding. The floral arrangements were gorgeous as were the chair covers and uplighting. It all came together perfectly. My husband and I received so many compliments and were just in awe of how he transformed the ballroom.

    JKG went above and beyond to help make my wedding amazing! He took my own style along with understanding of the venue and collaborated effectively with everyone involved to help make the wedding more beautiful then I could have imagined. I had a unique request for a nature-inspired, untraditional, and very out of the box display for the cupcakes and he created a display that was everything I could have wanted. Thanks John!!

    Working with John was truly a pleasure. He is an artist with amazing vision. He made the most beautiful chuppah for my backyard ceremony, and created a wonderful warm feeling within a large space for the reception. I highly recommend him!

    John Kevin Gallagher did an amazing job with our flower arrangements for our wedding. I met with John on a couple of occasions before ordering the flowers for my wedding. He sat with me and went over the details to my wedding. He looked over the ideas that I had and came up with the most beautiful arrangements I could have imagined. They were exactly what I wanted and more. The day of my wedding John arrived and found out that my wedding had been moved indoors because of the extreme heat. John and his team took the leftover flowers and made arrangements for the indoor altar. That is what you can expect from a professional like John. The quality and service cannot be beat by any other florist. I would recommend John's services to everyone.

    JKG did a wonderful job with the flowers, table linens, chair covers and miscellaneous decorating details for my daughter's wedding. He is hands-on with his work, pays attention to details, and his shop reminds me of Mary Poppin's bag : ) You can count on JKG for professionalism and beautiful results.

    John was great! I'm really happy we chose him to do our flowers. He's a pleasure to work with and did an amazing job with the flowers for the day. He was recommended by the Doubletree (our reception site) and I can see why. His price was a good value compared to other florists I looked at (Eventricity and Robertsons), and I feel like we got a lot for our money. I had a vision in my head of what I wanted for centerpieces at our reception site to look like; though what John created was a little different, they were nonetheless beautiful. A lot of people say you don't notice the details at your wedding, but I made sure to take it all in and the 2 different styles of centerpieces he created were gorgeous. Out in the cocktail area, he created a 3rd, smaller arrangement that was equally a wonderful as what awaited our guests in the ballroom. My bouquet was so pretty. I wanted all purple flowers and that's what he made. My 'maids all carried cream and light pink/peach flowers and my matron on honor carried the same with some purple mixed in. They all looked perfect. John even had flowers and extra corsages on hand in case some flowers wilted during pictures. I can't speak highly enough about John Kevin Gallagher Floral Decorators. You won't be disappointed if you choose him!

    I can't say enough good things about John and his staff. The floral arrangements for the chuch, the centerpiences for our tables, my bouquet - everything was exactly the way that I wanted. We had a few last minute changes which he handled without blinking. The price was reasonable and everything was so beautiful. If you're looking for a wedding decorator and/or florist and you're in the Philadelphia area, you can't go wrong by choosing JKG!

    I cannot rave enough about John and his team! I'm not a bride who had a vision of what everything at her wedding would look like, particularly the flowers. I came to John knowing that I wanted my room to have a "look" but not knowing at all what I wanted that look to be. John was able to take my answers to his questions, random thoughts on color and dislike of the monochromanic and translate it into an incredible room. I also am completely confident that John would be able to execute any vision that a more organized bride brought to him! My mother, who is VERY picky, was floored by John's work and, even a week after the wedding, we continue to get compliments on the flowers and lighting (which John also did). John was also always calm and completely flexible. When rain threatened by outdoor ceremony 15 minutes before it was to begin, John gave me options about changing around the indoor rain location and, when I picked the option that would be ten times more work for him, didn't even flinch. He is one of the vendors that I always personally looked forward to seeing and just a warm, wonderful person. My fiancee told me that he knows John was good because flowers/decor was the one thing I never worried about! Please feel free to contact me with any questions!
