Maria was a delight to work with for our wedding! She was the most responsive of any vendor that we used for the entire event. She was very willing to work within our budget and designed some amazing bouquets and arrangements for us. The final products were exactly what we envisioned and then some! Everyone at the wedding complimented us on her work. She was very flexible with changes that we needed to make and add-ons that we needed to make in the final weeks. I woud recommend her to anyone in the area getting married!

Maria did a great job for my wedding. Everyone was impressed with the reception setup. She did ceremony, cocktail hour and reception flowers. It looked great. I provided Maria with my ideas and thoughts and she did exactly how I like it. She is very responsive and ready to answer any question over email or by phone. She did awesome centerpieces and great bouquets for me and my girls!!! Thank you! Your flower's design made my wedding so beautiful!

I could not asked for a more stunning bouquet. I used Everlasting Ocassions and she ordered my bouquet from Katos. They were beautiful, fresh and loved all the little beautiful touches. 5 stars all the way.

Maria has consistently gone above and beyond her job to satsify her customers. She demonstrates how excellent customer service can have a lasting effect on customer relationships. Over the past six months, her attention to customer satisfaction has not gone unnoticed. She works extremely well with customers until their problems are resolved and often goes an extra step to help upset customers be completely surprised by how far we will go to satisfy customers and skillfully overcomes client objections. Maria is clearly a “people” person and shows her clients how much she likes working with them. The flowers were absolutely amazing!!! delivered within hours of initial order!!! beautiful job!!!! highly recommended!!!!

Maria was a dream to work with and her flowers were epic. I cannot recommend her enough. Her kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail made my wedding extra special. Seeing her prior to walking down the isle just made it all come together. Thank you, Maria!!

Wow did Kato Floral Design come through and save the day for my wedding! We hired her last minute, due to my initial florist not wanting to work with my original budget. Marie was very professional, friendly, attentive and willing to work with my budget. My centerpieces at the reception were beautiful, they were exactly what I wanted! I can't thank her enough for helping us out last minute and also creating the exact look I wanted with such little time. It was a pleasure to work with her!

I only wish I met you before now. Thank you so very much. Connie and Joe

I could not have been more pleased with the gorgeous bouquets and arrangements for my wedding. Maria was able to take my vague ideas and turn them into the most stunning bouquets I have ever seen. In addition to my wedding, Maria created a fabulous basket for the hostess of my shower. Everything she produces is elegant and artistic! I highly recommend using Kato Floral for any floral needs!

Maria is absolutely AMAZING! She did a fantastic job with EVERYTHING and helped create the most beautiful, romantic, and intimate setting for both my Wedding & Reception. The red Freedom roses and ivory Vendella roses were STUNNING! We received so many compliments on them and everyone wanted to know who my Florist was. Maria knew exactly what I wanted and brought my visions & ideas to life and more than exceeded my expectations. She was absolutely wonderful to work with and I wouldn't change one single thing if I had to do it all over again.

Maria did an astonishing job with our wedding floral design. We were having difficulties working with our initially contracted florist, and decided to make the switch to Maria with about a month to go to the wedding. It proved to be an important decision. Maria provides such flexibility at an affordable price that we only wish we could have found her sooner. My bride had very particular tastes and wanted the floral arrangements to be set up in a very particular way. Maria made that vision come to life in a way that was elegant and not over the top. Her attention to detail did not go unnoticed by my bride and I. She brings a level of expertise that makes you realize this is a person who clearly knows what she is doing, and that helped to put us at ease.
As we looked back on our day, we noted how many folks commented on some of the special touches we put on the wedding, and that that was a sort of validation of the months and months of planning we had put into the wedding. And we had so many people mention that they loved the floral arrangements. If we ever have an event again in Savannah, we will definitely be contacted Maria. She was fabulous, flexible, and worth every penny.

Maria was a pleasure to work with and extremely responsive. I presented Kato with a picture of what I was looking for in my bouquet and she perfected it and came up with some great suggestions that I adopted into my final bouquet. I would definitely recommend her to anyone getting married in the Savannah/Tybee area! Thanks again Maria for contributing to the perfection of our wedding. :-)

I can't recommend Maria from Kato Floral Designs enough. Not only is she a brilliant floral designer, but having Maria as one of my vendors was like having a friend with me for the wedding planning process. She checked in with me multiple times before and after my wedding - sometimes just to say hello and see how things were coming - another time to make sure I was safe as hurricane Irene passed. She was by far one of our most thoughtful vendors and we would hire her all over again if we had the opportunity.
I gave Maria quite a laundry list. And I changed my plans on her more than once. Maria never batted an eye. She took each unique request and change of plans with ease, a positive attitude and a genuine interest in helping me feel calm and excited about my wedding. She was never impatient with me and always confirmed our next plan of action.
NOW...her work is something of true artistic talent. Maria made gorgeous table arrangements for our ceremony, as well as provided unique jars for us to rent from her for our candy station. Her arrangements were whimsical, elegant and extremely professional. She was always willing to entertain my suggestions, like using fresh culinary herbs, and knew exactly how to take my ideas and transform them into professional floral design. When I arrived at my reception to see her work for the first time I was both reassured that she understood perfectly what I had envisioned and so pleasantly surprised by the added elements of design I couldn't have come up with myself. It was better than I imagined and Maria surprised me in the best kind of way.
I didn't have a wedding planner and I don't live in Savannah, so it was really important that I got a great vibe from my vendors and felt like I could trust them. Maria was amazing, from start to finish and I would recommend her to anyone planning an event in Savannah. If any brides are considering planning a destination wedding in Savannah, I found Maria to be available at a moment's notice. She replied to emails instantly and was happy to hop on the phone to chat whenever I needed. She even showed up the day before my wedding to meet me at our ceremony location!
Thank you so much, Maria! Our guests loved your arrangements and they made for beautiful photographs! Even our photographer commented on them!

Maria Kato did a wonderful job for a bridal bouquet. She went above and beyond and was able to put together a great product within our budget. We ended up having quite a hectic wedding weekend, but Maria really helped us pull off a great day! Highly recommend!!!

I know I'm a little late posting this, but it is not a reflection on the work that Angie did for me. I found her here on wedding wire. When I called her she promptly got back to me and it was like that ever since. She was so prepared to walk me through the steps to plan my floral arrangements. She was so kind and so patient with me especially when I had no clue where to begin. And the quality of the work?! It was absolutly amazing! I was in awe of how much she did for my meger budget. She went above and beyond and let me borrow and ilse runner when I had forgotten that on my list of things to-do. Angie was great to work with, she was dependable, early, and very flexable. I would recommend her for any event not just weddings to give color and some pop for that special day. If you go with her I know you won't be disappointed!!

Maria provided the flowers for our large rehearsal dinner and everyone raved about the beautiful flowers!! She met with me months prior to our event and offered ideas and suggestions to fit our occasion. I loved her ideas. Once we agreed on a theme and types of flowers, she made some sample arrangements in advance so I could envision her creations. Her prices were very reasonable and she worked within my budget. I was not disappointed!
