I was just married on Oct 15th 2010, I have to admit as all brides probably are, I was nervous and excited at the same time to see what the floral arrangements and bouquets would look like (of course you get samples but you cannot see the full effect until your at the event) but I must say Martha did absolutely amazing! The flowers were drop dead gorgeous! They were more beautiful than I imagined. Martha was a pleasure to plan with and I would recommend her to any bride!!

Gifts from the Heart” Florist is a wonderful store that really does business in a heartfelt, personal manner. I went to the owner, Martha Cederstrom, when I was in the midst of whirlwind preparations for my son’s wedding. The lad gave me seven weeks notice and a budget, well, an impossibly small budget to organize a Labor Day weekend wedding. Martha was very accommodating, full of creative suggestions, and as helpful to me as if I was spending a fortune filling the church and hall with her creations. After the original order, we made several changes over the next few weeks, and that was never a problem. When the bride and I told her we weren’t ordering a boutonnière for the groom because he was wearing broccoli (an inside joke), she volunteered to make him a real broccoli boutonnière on her. When the flowers arrived, they were beautiful, fresh, and just what the bride wanted.
Every time we went to the store, I noticed more cute merchandise arranged around the store. There are cards, cups, invitations, arrangements….all types of gift items in addition to the lovely flowers. I will definitely be doing business with Martha again, and can wholeheartedly recommend this store.

Ladies, i have to say Martha did such a beautiful job with everything. My bridal bouquet, bridesmaids flowers and my archway for our beach wedding was amazing. I have to say Martha was on point with everything, if she was unsure about anything she contacted me first hand and any uncertainties were cleared up. Everything was breathtaking. I strongly suggest her business to anyone in the area looking for a great florist. Everything she touched was absolutely gorgeous, simply perfect. On top of...

Perfect flowers for our perfect wedding day... posted 12/6/2010 All of the flowers for our wedding were just perfect! Martha at Gifts from the Heart Florist was especially patient through the whole process and worked with my indecisiveness and within my budget! She took the colors and visions that I had in my mind and made them a reality and the flowers were a such a beautiful compliment to our wedding. We received so many compliments on the flowers - from the bouquets to the cake and table arrangements. I highly recommend the services of Gifts From the Heart for your Long Island wedding!
Wonderful experience! posted 12/4/2010 Martha was absolutely wonderful, knowledgeable and honest. I was a nervous bride beginning wedding planning and she was so encouraging, fun and supportive and everything turned out perfectly - much better than I could imagine. Martha made sure that we had good communication by being very attentive to our vision and informing us of the items we did not think of to ensure every detail was perfect. The ceremony flowers were gorgeous, all the bouquets were breathtaking... everything was FABULOUS! I would recommend Martha to everyone for any wedding or occasion. Great job!
