57 Treasury

Working with Karin at 57 Treasury was such a wonderful experience. We were getting married in our back yard in St. Augustine in a beautiful setting. I did not want tons of flowers as the surrounding nature was perfect. Karin came to the house, and came up with a minimalist proposal working with the natural beauty of the surroundings instead of overpowering it. It was perfect! My bouquet was spectacular, as were all the table flowers! I will use Karin for all my floral needs in the future and will definitely recommend her.

I enjoyed working with Karin, although as I've seen some of the other reviews say, we did not always seem to be on the same page. We'd talk about one thing, then her proposal would say another. In the end, my flowers were nice, although there were some specific flowers I wanted in the bouquets that I did not get. We had quite a variety of flowers we were using, so maybe having too many types was a problem. Maybe sticking to simpler choices would have made it better. Also, sadly, my bouquet was a little droopy. Looked good in the pics in the end. But if you are going to work with Karin, you will need to be very specific about what you want. The reception site looked beautiful. So overall, I wasn't distraught or anything. But my flowers were the one thing that day I wasn't 100% happy with.

Karin at 57 treasury was so pleasant to work with. I went there with a few pictures and a few ideas. I did not know alot about flowers and what I really wanted. We talked about a few flowers and even looked through some books. She told me everything will be perfect! I trusted her right from the beginning! She and her team did a wonderful job! Everything was beautiful!

Karin is an amazing person and she does do good work. I would recommend her if you are a bride that has an idea of what you want but not a set plane. I however, knew what I wanted and while the flowers we got on our wedding day were beautiful they were not what I had asked for. For example, I had asked for a cascading bouquet and instead I got an upright bouquet that had flowers sticking so high they covered my face! We had to break the stems and rearrange the flowers minutes before going to take pictures. This was among quite a few other problems. Don't get me wrong she is an amazing florist but I would caution if you are a bride more like me who knows what they want.

Karin has a unique and whimsical style that she brings to her floral arrangements. She was able to incorporate the types of flowers that I had my heart set on and to do so within my tight budget. I came to her only a month before our wedding due to a last minute change in plans with the person that was previously going to do our wedding flowers. Even with such a short amount of time before the event, Karin was able to provide beautiful boquets and centerpieces. I did find it hard to reach her by phone most of the time, but she is incredibly busy with all the other weddings too. The best way to reach her is by e-mail.

Karin was absolutely amazing! I was a very uptight bride and wanted things to be just perfect. Karin realized this and not only worked with me, but also reassured me so much that I was able to relax and let her do her job! This included creating the perfect flowers for my bridesmaids, myself, and the centerpieces. 57 Treasury was hands-down some of the best money we spent on the wedding and worth every penny we spent and more! We are so thankful and happy we chose 57 Treasury!

Karin was absolutely amazing. From the moment I walked into the shop, she completely understood my vision for the floral arrangements. Of all the florists I talked to, she was the only one I felt really comfortable with! She was able to work with my budget and provide beautiful flowers for my boquet! The boutineres and corsages were gorgeous and my mom and mother in law LOVED their Tussy Mussy's! She made floral rings for the flower girls' heads and they stole the show. Thank you so much Karin!

57 Treasury is simply the best florist in town! Karim is soooo talented!!!! shes so amaizing she knew what I liked even before I figured it out! She was able to work around my budget time after time, and at the end, the flowers were simply beatifuL! Im soo happy we went with you Karim! THANK YOU!

My flowers turned out beautifully and had a unique creative touch that can only be done by Karin at 57 Treasury! The flowers made my wedding that much more beautiful and I could not have imagined them looking any better!

Karen is just a pleasure to work with. She is not a florist, but an artist. She creates simple beauty. Karen made several trips over to River House with and without us to capture the essence of the space as well as the desires of the bride.(and her parents) It was just perfect. The simple elegance that she created was beyond words. Thank you for helping to create such a wonderfully memorable day.

Karen and staff figured me out after ten minutes. They followed up with me on several occasions to make sure I was getting what I wanted. They were so friendly and reassuring, I felt as though it was all under control and I didn't even need to think about my florals.

Working with 57 treasury made my day complete and calm! I am a very uptight person and after meetin with Karin she made me feel at ease with her in charge. She is truly and artist and she read my mind on exactly what I wanted the flowers were beautiful! Thanks so much!

Karin was very accommodating, althought I think some of our ideas were conflicting. The flowers were beautiful and everyone commented on how it was so unique.

This review is based on the fact that my own mother worked at a florist's for 25 years and went on the recomendation of others about this business. I liked the lady and I loved my flowers for the wedding and reception,especially the fact that she went out of her way to get flowers that I wanted and especially the lily of the valley. Her prices were high and we didn't get what was on our contract. For example- She said we were getting flower bundles for the church(2 for candlabras, one unity candle and an archway, which were later to go to the reception). There were NO flowers in the bundles and there was no arch to decorate so we paid for something we didn't get. And it wasn't cheap. My mom feels like your paying for her name and reputation. I felt bad that my mom specifically asked for lilies of the valley for her and my grandma's tussie mussies and those even though she had our names and my parents paid for every cent of the flowers, hers looked pathetic and all those flowers went to the groom's mother and grandmother. My mom made out like it was ok but it bothered me .Since I've helped my mom over the years in the flower shop I expected with the price that the flowers would be finished a little nicer. My mom and her shop always ribbon wrapped and covered the floral tape of the bouts, but they did not. If you want someone with a name and you don't mind being overcharged then 57 Treasury is your shop. They delivered everything on time and also brought our flowers(greens) from the church to the reception, but you do pay an appropriate rate for that. Again ,I loved my flowers, the owner was very sweet and helpful, and I got what I wanted , but I also know that we paid for things we did not

There is a reason that 57 Treasury is the most coveted florist in St. Augustine, because they are the best! Extremely creative and very familiar with all the other vendors I was working with in St. Augustine. My grandmother is a retired florist, so we had high expectations to boot.

The two women who own, and run 57 Treasury are skilled in Floral Design. This is not just a florist shop. They do floral design for special occassions only. They are very attentive, and detailed.

No words to describe how beautiful the flowers came out! I went in with an idea, tried my best to describe what I was looking for, and she did a wonderful job! Our wedding was on a Friday, early in the morning, she came on time to deliver them to my hotel before we left for the ceremony, and the flowers we're so beautiful. They we're in such great shape my bridesmaids had them for a week after before they started to wilt (Orchids and Callas). She also provided the orchids for my cake which not one was in anyway in bad shape. They were stunning. I still get compliments on how beautiful they were. She did an amazing job, and made our wedding day so easy.
