Reviews of Goldenrod Floral Design
Callie Hulce
Carlee is an insanely talented and gifted florist. From start to finish, she made the entire floral planning process easy, fun and stress free. I shared my vision with her and she not only brought it to life, but far exceeded all expectations I had. Her work is truly some of the most beautiful art I have ever seen in my life. Besides her floral expertise, Carlee is kind, funny, communicative, professional and joyful. Her team had limited time day of to set up for our wedding and it was absolute perfection. From our ceremony florals to dining tables, everything was cohesive and stunning. My bouquet was literally the best floral arrangement of my life and we received so many comments on how absolutely magical her teams work was. Thank you Carlee and team from the bottom of our hearts. Our day was the most special because of you! Cheers!!! xoxo Nick and Callie

I cannot say just how amazing Carlee is, because there just aren't the right words. We had Carlee design our wedding florals, and they were an absolute dream. She is the sweetest, most genuine person, and working with her was easy from start to finish. From the first time I spoke with her, I felt completely confident that she understood my vision and was going to take it and run with it. ....And did she ever! When we had our florals picked up the day before our wedding, I was speechless. Even though my husband and I opted for an intimate "just us" small-scale wedding (with no guests), Carlee put just as much care and love and detail into our flowers as if it were a big huge elaborate wedding. My bouquet was just the most gorgeous thing I've ever seen. I wish flowers lasted forever, bc I would have carried that baby everywhere I go for the rest of my life. She also put together the most precious garland for the back of our car, and the photos speak for themselves. She also arranged multiple centerpieces for our dinner table, and they were stunning. Carlee was on top of everything, organized, and never gave me any cause to worry. Pickup & rental return was a piece of cake. I cannot imagine that anyone anywhere could have done a more perfect job with our wedding florals. Seriously, Carlee is mad talented. I could go on and on.... but just check out these photos. Thank you, Carlee. You will forever be a special part of our big day, and I can't thank you enough.

Before I even met Carlee, I immediately knew from her work that I had to have her do the floral aspect of our wedding. If you’ve seen her work, you know that it is vibrant, lively, and radiant just. like. her... It is like each petal of every flower is touched by her love, I’m not exaggerating - she is that sweet of a soul. From the first time I met her, each interaction has been an absolute joy. She truly cares about making sure your wedding will be the most magical looking day, no matter how simple or extravagant you want your floral arrangements to be. From our *Bridgerton (as Carlee would describe it)* look of a ceremony and reception to the tiny, beautiful bouttonieres she created, she will never miss a single detail that needs to amaze you.
Your wedding is one of the most important and special days in your life, so having someone that you can trust to understand your vision and budget is so incredibly important and Carlee is that person. I really can’t believe how lucky I got with Carlee because not only is she such a sweetheart, she is also beyond thoughtful, passionate about her work, and generous. The months leading up to our wedding were obviously so full of excitement over the floral designs but oh my gosh, words can not explain how much Carlee *genuinely* wants to make you happy with what she can do so some examples that truly touched our hearts were
1) when she added even MORE details to our floral arch with no extra charge as a wedding gift because she couldn’t help herself over the design that she had in mind - which also matched one of my Pinterest inspo pics(um hello, my heart exploded from joy because Carlee was meant to be my florist)
2) the taper candles she found that also had pressed flowers inside them (like I said, tiniest details!!), and
3) when she collaborated with my angel of a photographer(Natalie Malis/mistofmorning) who offered us a third photoshoot by whipping me up another beautiful bouquet free of charge as well because they both understood how my stress that day made it hard to be in the moment for our pictures.
Now every time I look at our pictures, I can’t help but feel an immense amount of appreciation again for every hardworking person that put their heart and soul into creating our dreamy wedding.
Obviously, weddings are proof of a couple’s love but with the right vendors, it is also proof of the care and respect vendors have for the couple and we couldn’t have had better. Carlee, you are the best and we love and appreciate you and your team so so much.

Our florals were definitely one of the HIGHLIGHTS of our wedding! All of our guests commented on how absolutely stunning our florals were.
On top of that, Carlee was so amazing to work with. From the beginning, she ensured that she fully understood our vision so that we could have the wedding of our dreams. She even joined us at our venue to walk through the plan for our florals, making sure everything was perfect.
I cannot thank Carlee enough for making our wedding exactly what we wanted. 10/10 recommend if you want a show-stopping floral design that fits your design perfectly, and a stress free set up process.

Carlee was an absolute dream to work with for my husband and I’s elopement in Washington. Once coming across her work, I was obsessed and was desperately hoping she would be available, and luckily enough she was! Especially coming out of Covid, I feel like some of the small businesses aren’t receiving some of the grace and recognition they deserve, so I really can’t say enough amazing things about Carlee and the beautiful arrangements she did for us.
From the time of booking to the pick up and drop off of flowers, everything was coordinated, seamless, and stress free. She was so sweet on our Zoom calls, took everything we brainstormed together, and delivered something beyond what we could have hoped for. Everything was absolutely stunning! ✨ Her creativity, enthusiasm, and just overall vibe as an individual made our day that much more special by having her beautiful touch in our flowers.
Beth Herron
HAVE NO FEAR, CARLEE IS HERE!
Wow, all I can say is wow. Carlee's creativity is endless. She is SUCH a hard-working gal. I had a very specific vision and color pallet and she delivered flowers to me that just blew me away. She absolutely NAILED the vision, texture, weight and delicate features that I was hoping for in my floral order. She is responsive, thorough, kind and creative. What more could you hope for?! I will recommend her to everyone I know. Thank you Carlee and team for all of your help!
Becca Wechter
Carlee is awesome! She was professional, patient, and polite. She provided me with suggestions to help make the perfect bouquet and boutonniere. Highly recommend. 10/10
Sara Redona
Carlee is absolutely AMAZING!! I definitely was not a bride who knew exactly what she wanted in flowers. Carlee put together BEAUTIFUL bouquets and boutineer on super short notice-- they were absolutely perfect for our adventure wedding. They not only were absolutely gorgeous, but they brought so much happiness to our day. In talking with Carlee a few times before our wedding, I could tell how much care and love she put into each bouquet and arrangement. She was an absolute joy to work with and I hope I have future flower needs just so I can work with her again. Not only did she put together floral for our wedding day, she also pressed and dried my bouquet so I can preserve the memories forever-- if you were unsure, these were also stellar! If you are looking for an amazing florist, you definitely will want Carlee!!!
Heather Johnson
We hired Carlee with Goldenrod Floral Design for our wedding, and I am SO glad we did! She is a phenomenal florist. Truly it is her gift. Our florals were perfect, from my bridal bouquet to our centerpieces and arbor, it was everything I imagined and more. Carlee is so friendly and personable, and I had a great time working with her. After meeting with her and describing my vision, I felt like she really understood what I wanted. She is an artist when it comes to florals. I cried tears of happiness when she delivered my bouquet to our hotel and couldn’t stop staring at our beautiful head table during dinner. 10/10.
Lucia Babar
Carlee is hands down the best! I literally sent her a picture of my husbands floral tie for our July 2020 elopement in the North Cascades along with his Burgundy suit as my "inspiration" and she made the bouquet of my dreams.
I was following Carlee on Instagram prior to our elopement and asked questions about certain types that I thought were gorgeous - when the time came for me to see my bouquet, it was like she took my inspiration/mixed it with all the flowers I picked out over a few months and it was absolute magic!!! There was even one flower that was potentially going to be "out of season" the week or 2 before our elopement and she dried it for me so that I would have some no matter what.
The boutonniere matched perfectly and she even made my hair florals exceed anything I could have imagined.
I wish I lived closer to Seattle so I could buy flowers from her all the time. I am still swooning over my wedding florals. By the time my elopement came, I felt like Carlee was my friend - she even gave me hiking/food/drink recommendations!
Miranda G
Carlee was a joy to work with. We hired her for our intimate micro wedding. She is so creative and passionate about her craft. I appreciated her responsiveness to emails and top notch communication throughout the planning process. I can't wait to share flower photos once we receive them from our photographer. Highly recommend! Thank you!
Morgan Rial
I can't say enough great things about Carlee and her team. Throughout the process, Carlee was amazing to work with and I could not recommend her more for a wedding or special event. She took my inspiration pictures and ideas to heart and really blew me away with her beautiful work. You were my dream vendor, Carlee!!!
Melissa Juergens
Carlee is one of one in the floral industry! She has such an eye for creating beautiful florals for all different styles, designs, and couples. She is truly the best at what she does and is also a great human on top of that. I am a Wedding Planner here in Seattle and recommend her over and over again to my clients because I know I can trust her to create exactly what my client needs all while being kind in the process.
Bridget Mason
Carlee created the bouquet of my dreams for our elopement in the North Cascades! I didn't have a super clear idea of exactly what I wanted (I gave Carlee some color combos I liked and did not like) and Carlee created a bouquet that was above and beyond anything I could have imagined! I loved the variety of flowers in the bouquet, and my husband's bout was beautiful too :) We also loved the berries she added!
Aly Johnston
Highly recommend! Carlee was a pleasure to work with - always VERY responsive, so organized, and clearly extremely talented. She listened to exactly what I wanted while also providing knowledgeable advice. I wish I could say everything was perfect because Carlee IS amazing but there was one disappointment that was not her fault... at the end of the night her crew threw away all of our flowers. Not even a petal was left behind :( After spending thousands, you hope to be able to enjoy the flowers for more than one day, especially since her work is so beautiful! I know this mistake was in no way her fault and she was very quick to make it right by bringing us additional flowers. However, I do want to warn future brides so this doesn’t happen to anyone else so you can enjoy the beauty for longer. Thanks again Carlee!
Kaitlyn Kuss
AMAZING! I got in touch with Carlee when I was in a pinch (literally 1 month before our wedding--highly recommend booking her much further in advance!). I had an issue with a different florist I had initially inquired with and since we were having a very intimate wedding, we were just going to end up doing the flowers on our own (yikes!). I called Carlee on a whim after stumbling upon her Instagram, hoping maybe she'd be able to help me out, but didn't want to get my hopes up. She was only able to coordinate a pick-up order, which was totally fine and understandable considering it was super last minute, but the quality of her work was incredible and she truly went above and beyond to make my last minute floral arrangements feel planned and intentional! Carlee was super kind and helpful and she has a true gift for making things look beautiful. My only regret was not finding her sooner and hiring her to come on-site the day of!
Ariel Bergman
Carlee was the absolute best!! She made the bouquet & boutonniere for my elopement and provided coordinating flowers for our cake. I gave her pictures of what I liked, some general guidelines, and she kicked it out of the park! Carlee was super responsive throughout the entire process, and was so easy to work with. When we were scheduled to pick up our flowers, her shop had been broken into the night before, and let me tell you -- she did not miss a beat. A true professional and expert. Could not recommend her enough!
Cassie OC
Carlee is a floral magician and she is a dream to work with! With only providing her a brief idea of colors I love and our theme I put my full trust in her to create something unique. I was absolutely over the moon once I picked up our elopement florals. She crafted the MOST dreamy bouquet and made a perfect flower halo for our frenchie, the colors blended so well with our theme and truly popped against the backdrop. After our elopement I took our bouquet camping with us as I could not stop staring at how beautiful it was! I am forever grateful for her creative eye and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a genuine and talented florist!
Henry Tieu
Carlee is out of this world. She is super creative and down to Earth. I am a wedding photographer here in Seattle and Carlee and I have worked together and words can't describe how amazing she truly is. She doesn't mind getting her clothes dirty if it meant that we will get a perfect ceremony arch. My vow renewal is coming up and I am 100% sure will inquire her service :)
Liana Galtieri
I loved working with Carlee at Rusted Vase Floral Co! I was absolutely in love and obsessed with all of the bouquets and the center pieces she created for my wedding. She did 18 center pieces and 7 bouquets for us. Carlee was so kind and easy to talk with, and she incorporated so many different elements (colors, scent, texture, greenery) into the arrangements. I basically showed her some pictures of what I liked, but told her to just run with it as she's the artist. I totally trusted her to come up with something beautiful based on my scattered ideas. What we ended up with was absolutely beautiful, and the perfect pop of color to brighten our day. Everything she created was a work of art! She also locally sources her plants and uses what's available and in season, which I appreciated. I cannot say enough great things about Carlee & Rusted Vase Floral Co and would recommend her to anyone!
Ben Horvath
My husband and I got married this past June 30th at Robinswood House in Bellevue. We can’t say enough awesome things about Carlee at Rusted Vase!!!! We first met Carlee in November to talk about the types of arrangements we were looking for. We really wanted the arrangements to have some architectural elements in which the flowers would take on a life of their own. She tailored our boutonnieres to our individual tastes, while still complementing one another. She incorporated rosemary and unripe blueberries into the arrangements, delighting everyone. We also rented a huppah stand from her. It was beautiful, made from birch, and was very stable. It added a great and unexpected element to the wedding. Carlee brought her sister as an assistant on our wedding day and they were a great team. All of the flowers were fresh were used to build centerpieces to suit each table. She was really efficient!! All of the flowers were at the peak of freshness and added a great touch of color to our home for several days after the ceremony. I would get married again just to have Carlee do the flowers.

I hired Rusted Vase Floral for our destination wedding at Disneyland Resort in California. From day one I felt like Carlee really understood my vision and was excited to work with me. She used her knowledge and expertise in deciding what floral would be purchased in Seattle and brought down and what could be gotten in the area we were married. This ensured we had very special, hard to find, extra large tropical foliage for our venue space.
She is a gifted artist and we received so many compliments about our bouquets (9 in total!) and the floral that decorated our reception space.
I also hired Carlee to assemble my personal decor in our reception space which she added floral enhancements to. This made our day run so smoothly because we didn't have to worry about setting up or breaking down our decor before or after the reception.
I would definitely recommend working with Rusted Vase for your event. She makes wild, romantic, and gorgeous floral art and will bring your vision to life!
Sophia Phillips
Carlee is such an incredible florist to work with! She did all of the floral arrangements for my wedding, including a floral backdrop for our photo booth, and everything looked so beautiful.
I can't recommend her enough!
Aria Gundrum
Carlee was amazing to work with and very responsive!! With COVID, I quickly had to find a florist since we last minute decided to do a small ceremony. I had some idea of what I wanted and trusted her creativity. She listened, looked at pictures on my Pinterest and created a bouquet that was SO stunning and better than I could have imagined! I didn't want to put the bouquet down all day because it was so beautiful and the flowers remained just as lovely hours later as we wandered around the National Park! I highly recommend her for your wedding day and any flower needs.
Norah E
Carlee is incredibly talented, kind, and professional. I had a vague idea of what I wanted, shared some inspiration photos with Carlee during the design meeting, and that was it! 8 months later, BOOM, she brought my vision to life in a way that was even better than what I wanted. I teared up when I saw how beautiful the set up was and can't wait to get back professional photos of it all. Carlee is also very reassuring and respectful of budget and will make helpful suggestions on how best to use it. Don't think twice about hiring her. Do it! Her work is so unique and your mind will be blown!
Gabi Fox
Carlee is an absolute artist and so easy to work with. I’m a wedding photographer so I’ve seen A LOT of bouquets and floral installations, Carlee is hands down the most creative florist I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Every one of my brides that works with her is so happy with how she brings their vision to life! She’s an incredible business person, so professional, accommodating, and a pleasure to be around. 10/10 recommend her for all of your wedding and elopement flower needs!
Hannah Berry
**Forever obsessed! Dream vendor.**
Flowers were one of the most important aspects of our wedding day, so I spent a long time (even before I was engaged!) keeping an eye out for the right person. I fell in love with Carlee's work and emailed her literally the day we got engaged because I was so excited to work with her. To say that she delivered above and beyond our expectations is an understatement. Right from the beginning, she totally understood my vision and was so patient with me as I debated vase choice, boutonniere count, etc. She created my absolute DREAM bouquet and table decor. I had so many people tell me at the wedding—and after—that the flower arrangements were the most beautiful they had ever seen. I truly cannot say enough how talented, kind, creative and lovely Carlee is! I wish we could have another wedding just so we could hire her to do the flowers again. :)
Tiffany Swartz
Carlee is truly the most talented florist, EVER! She is so easy to communicate with even when you live across the country. When I saw my bouquet for the first time my jaw dropped. It was the most beautiful bouquet I have ever seen. If you book Carlee for you flowers you wont regret it. I would book her over and over again!
Becky Shwartz
Rusted Vase provided the florals for our wedding. I can’t say enough good things about Carlee! She’s so passionate and thoughtful about her work. I think it’s really impressive how she was able to take a list of ideas over the phone (thanks COVID!) and have it turn out exactly how I imagined, but with little touches that made it even better somehow. She was also incredibly responsive to my random 2am email requests. Everyone was raving about the boquets. Loved working with her, highly recommend!!
Mallory Mangini
We had such a great experience with Carlee! Her flowers are beyond anything I could have imagined. I honestly am drying so many flowers around my home because I want to treasure these forever. She was so easy to work with, professional, and very talented. Highly recommend!
Catherine Kalina Hinkle
Carlee is the best in the business, and her creativity never ceases to amaze me! After seeing so many of her gorgeous bouquets and arrangements online, I was afraid my own wouldn’t live up to my ever-growing expectations, but of course it did! I was blown away by the colors, the detail, the size, everything she picked up then made infinitely better. The florals quickly became my favorite part of the venue/location. She is super professional, easy to communicate with, and patient. She is a gem, and consider yourself lucky if you’re able to book her on your team! :)
Devin Grenley
Carlee is SO talented. She can create any style, any vibe, anything your heart desires. At first I was so invested in exactly what my florals would look like, down to the very last little detail (Carlee was always gracious, open, and listened!) but after taking a deep breath I realized I needed to let Carlee be the artist she is and create her magic. And oh boy did she not disappoint. She listened to exactly what I had wanted from the very beginning and then elevated it to look even more gorgeous than I could have imagined. The florals highlighted the wispy, beachy and enchanted vibe we were looking for, while also magically matched my dress along with the entire atmosphere around us. Carlee is so creative, she makes such unique and beautiful pieces that differ from any other floral arrangements I’ve ever seen. If you want beautiful florals, a kind person, and someone who thinks outside the box in every magical way, hire Carlee!
Marya Purrington
Carlee is creative, organized, and fun to work with. Choose her and you won't be let down. I've watched Carlee work with her brides and her charisma is amazing. She really treats each couple like friends, gets their weddings exactly right and does it all with a (HUGE) smile on her face.
Carlee customizes everything for every wedding -- she can create any aesthetic and it looks absolutely amazing. She's creative, which means you can throw anything at her, and she'll make it happen.
I can't recommend Rusted Vase Co. and Carlee enough. Hire her -- you won't regret it!
Izzy Nuttall
Carlee’s work is absolutely phenomenal! My husband and I love bright colors so we just asked her to make our wedding “bright” and she ran with it in gorgeous arrangements. We got piles of compliments about the flowers at our wedding and they completed our look perfectly. She also did a wonderful job of helping us be as economical as possible (reusing arrangements for reception and ceremony) and went above and beyond with helping us source a custom photo booth backdrop. She is wonderfully creative and a joy to work with. I just wish I could have her arrangements in my life every day!
Carla Callahan
As a fellow events professional in the Seattle wedding industry, I've worked with Carlee on countless occasions. Her business motto is "flowers for the wildly romantic" -- and she really does deliver on that! As a person, she's a delight to work with, always cool and collected even during the most intricate and hectic days of setup & installation. She's a floral designer who also has the demeanor and organization skills of a highly accomplished event planner. Every wedding I've done with her has had a different color scheme and unique overall feel -- and she's been able to put together stunningly personalized ceremony and reception decor for every one of those clients. She's NO one-trick pony!
I've seen her transform spaces with her florals, turning the bare bones of a wood frame or a bare tree branch into lush, magical decor pieces. Her friendly and open-hearted attitude is always refreshing and helps put others at ease.
I highly recommend Carlee to guide you through your wedding floral design, and to create jaw-droppingly beautiful art for you!
Carigan Donnelly
Carlee is an absolutely astounding and incredibly creative florist! She can see someone's vision and take it to the next level of beautiful every time. Her style flows with whatever environment it is in, whether that be wildly romantic,modern and funky, or everything combined and inbetween! She is so patient and kind with all of her staff and customers at weddings and events. I can't recommend her business enough. Also check out her beautiful shop whenever you get the chance- the plants, flowers, and gifts are incredible!!
Allison Buckland
Carlee is the absolute BEST!! She makes the whole process so easy. She has an amazing talent and I would highly recommend her! Going into it, I wasn't really sure what I wanted or even have a full color palette picked out, I told her what I liked and didnt like and she came up with the perfect colors and flowers! Not to mention, I changed my mind on a few things last minute and she had no issues with it at all. She made me feel relaxed about the entire process. She drove all the way to Leavenworth to set everything up early in the morning too! Thank you for everything!!!
Kari Driemeyer
We are so happy we hired Carlee to handle the flowers for our wedding!! She was incredibly easy to work with -- we started with an initial phone call where I described the vibe we were going for. She was familiar with our venue and offered a couple professional suggestions that would be more secure and more easily adjusted in case of winds or rain (which is always a concern when you get married outdoors in WA!). After that phone call, she put together a detailed proposal complete with picture examples of what we'd discussed, and then I didn't have to think about flowers again until a month before the wedding when she reached out to make sure everything was still accurate. When you're deep in the throes of wedding planning and coordinating, having vendors who are professional and self-accountable are worth their weight in gold.
And finally - the arrangements she put together were absolutely beautiful! My bouquet smelled amazing (I kept getting whiffs as we were taking pictures), and all the various arrangements were perfectly coordinated without being identical. She even went above and beyond on the table decorations -- I'd asked for garland and tea lights, and she tucked some extra flowers into the greenery for a little extra burst of color :)
In short - Carlee is incredible at what she does, and made my life easier. If I ever have another large event to plan, she'll be at the top of my list.
Donald Cheyette
I just got a bouquet for my wife from Carlee at RV. As always she is such a professional- this time of year there aren't many local flowers in bloom, but she made the most amazing arrangement of dried flowers. She cares about her customers, puts so much energy and thought into her designs. Can't wait to see more!
Sarah Rith
alright so, Carlee is amazing as you can see by all the other reviews. How amazing? Let me tell you.
When I decided to go with her, I already saw photos of what she created for others so immediately I was confident. When she asked me what I wanted, I had no clue what I was describing. I think I said “rustic, I love dahlias and here are a few photos” literally couldn’t even articulate what I wanted. I remember saying, I trust you just go for it. Oh, and here is kinda what our color palette is.
Well, in Carlee fashion. She knocked it out of the park. My husband had to pickup the flowers and he sent me a message along the lines of “you’re going to die, they are so pretty.” I mean, he knows what I like but I thought he was being dramatic. Nope, they literally left me so giddy! I mean, I gave her the most vague description and she gave me the most gorgeous bouquet with a matching boutonnière. The color combinations, flower types, where she sources it, all of it was just beautiful!
Last she was flexible, easy to communicate with and accommodating during the entire process.
Thanks, Carlee! Keep being amazing. 💛
Angie Rodriguez
Carlee not only is one of the most talented florists I’ve ever worked with technically, she also has such a cool style and way she puts tones together. I love her work and HER even more. You cannot go wrong with hiring this one.
Lauren Long
I cannot speak more highly of Carlee and her work. She listened to what we wanted for our wedding day and was able to execute our vision better than we could have imagined. She is an amazing florist and a dream to work with!
Chelsea Kennedy
I highly recommend Rusted Vase Floral - whenever I have a friend getting married, I immediately tell them I know an amazing florist! Carlee is amazing on site, super patient and creative in an environment of high stress (weddings can be crazy!)
Keep your eye out for Rusted Vase workshops too, they are such a fun experience to get together with your girlfriends and then bring home a beautiful arrangement!
Erika Hernandez
Carlee is insanely talented! She has a fun funky style and is so easy to work with!! Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed.
Shane Gomes
Carlee did all the arrangements for our wedding, and with our very vague input created marvelous ones that were exactly wat we wanted. She was phenomenal to work with.
Keegan Prosser
She’s wonderful! Made a beautiful bouquet for my mom’s retirement!
Scott Mise
