What people are saying

  • "As the Art Director for The Bachelor & Bachelorette series, I am accustomed to working with top-notch teams who deliver creatively, powerfully, and with ease and cheer.  When vetting potential designers for our Seattle episode of The Bachelorette, I knew I had someone great lined up when I contacted Maura Whalen, owner of Casablanca Floral.  She immediately brainstormed a brilliant plan to flower our shoot (a few blocks worth of flowers were needed for a Wicked movie cross promotion).  What she delivered (just three weeks later) was beyond my expectations.  Moreover, it was all sustainably sourced from a local, wholesale nursery, and all was re-purposed after the shoot - something Hollywood could use a lot more of. "

  • "Thank you for the gorgeous centerpieces for our dinner. It was surreal to walk in the room and realize this environment I had been hoping to create for months(!) was actually here, in front of my eyes. With all of the moving pieces that go into an event, your florals were the element I was most anticipating...and ended up being the most delighted by. Cannot thank you enough and very much looking forward to working together in the future. All the best."
