Intentionally designed flowers from first conversation to final petal

Congratulations on your engagement! This is such a beautiful season of dreaming, planning, and imagining the day you’ve been waiting for.

Your wedding flowers are more than just a detail — they are an essential part of bringing your vision to life and creating an atmosphere that feels uniquely yours. For years, you’ve pictured this moment: the person you’d marry, the way you’d feel walking down the aisle, and the beautiful blooms that would surround you as you begin this next chapter.

At Simply Designed, we believe every couple deserves a floral experience that feels effortless, personal, and intentional. Through thoughtful design, careful listening, and a passion for creating beauty, we bring your vision to life with flowers that reflect your love story and make your wedding day feel unforgettable.

You walk into your floral consultation feeling excited, inspired, and completely understood. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by endless choices, you’re guided through a thoughtful design process where your vision, personal style, and wedding dreams come together effortlessly.

Together, we explore the colors, textures, flowers, and meaningful details that will make your wedding feel uniquely yours. You share the moments you’ve imagined — the feeling you want your guests to experience, the atmosphere you want to create, and the little details that make your love story special.

From that first conversation, every element is intentionally designed with care. Your bouquet begins to take shape, your ceremony flowers create a breathtaking backdrop, and every centerpiece adds to the story of your day.

Then the moment arrives — your wedding day. You see the final design brought to life exactly as you envisioned: romantic, beautiful, and filled with flowers that feel like they were created just for you.

From our first conversation to the final bloom placed, Simply Designed is there to create a seamless, personalized floral experience that allows you to be fully present and soak in every unforgettable moment.

everything we do is done with your unique love story in mind to honor you and your relationship

We understand that a significant number of our clients coordinate their plans from afar. Hence, we offer virtual consultations through Google Meet to ensure a personalized experience. Approximately half of our wedding clientele engage in remote planning, with face-to-face meetings scheduled exclusively on their wedding day. For local clients, we extend the option of in-person consultations by appointment only.

back to questions

We understand that we may be an earlier vendor booked to ensure your date is secure with us. To make the most out of your initial consultation with us, come prepared with a general color palette, budget range, rough quantities of items on your wish list and a Pinterest board if you have one. This will allow us to provide a mood board and a more accurate proposal should you wish to book with us! The details can always be determined after you have more time to plan. It’s most important to secure your date!

back to questions

I offer mockups for guest table centerpieces but not for Bridal Bouquets as they are unique and magical pieces. Mockups are available for an additional fee, providing a visual preview of the size and shape of your floral arrangements to ensure expectations are met. Please note that each bloom varies due to factors like weather and season, making exact replication impossible. Ideal for those prioritizing design, mockups are pricier than a single centerpiece due to bulk ordering. Typically, mockups are scheduled 45 days before the event to ensure the availability of seasonal blooms.

back to questions

Absolutely, all arrangements can be brought home. However, we do not allow vases and other hardgoods to be taken home, such as non- fresh floral decor items, vase fillers and bleached ingredients rocks, marbles, sand, feathers, pampas grass, any dried or bleach ingredient not included in personals as these are rental items. If you wish to take this home, please let us know ahead of time to make the proper arrangement for this item to go home.

back to questions

back to questions

What really sets my work apart is that I don’t see myself as just providing flowers — I aim to create an experience. Every design is crafted to evoke emotion and tell a story, transforming a moment into something memorable and meaningful. I also value the relationships I build with my clients; they’re treated with the utmost care, like family. That personal connection, combined with intentional design, is what I’m most proud of.

back to questions

I could not have been more thrilled with the flowers done for our wedding.

Mary exactly understood what I wanted and there is just no describing how gorgeous everything turned out. We go so many compliments on just the flowers. Vibrant, romantic, and perfectly FL for our Jax Beach wedding. I am having my bouquet preserved in a frame it was so gorgeous. I also loved how professional and organized she was. She created an entire pitch deck and made sure it was always up to date. I would recommend her to everyone!

lisa m.

She was quick to respond, professional, and helped translate my ideas into the gorgeous floral arrangements.

My guests all commented on how beautiful they were! She helped work with me on a tight timeline and kept me informed every step of the way. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for floral designers for important events in the Jacksonville area and nearby.

Mary's floral centerpieces and bridal bouquet were absolutely gorgeous! 

She took the time to preview the church and the reception venue with me during the design phase. Everyone was commenting on the beautiful arrangements on the tables, etc. Highly recommend Designed by Mary!

julia g.

She really tries to make your vision come alive and she did it for us. 

I had an inspiration photo of the flowers and colors I wanted and even though she could not get the exact flowers, she re-created it perfectly. I would not hesitate to ask Mary to do any flower arrangements for me in the future. She is that good!!
