Great Expectations Flowers By Inka

Inka with Great Expectations Flowers understood our vision from our very first meeting. She knew what would work well with our venue and our personal backgrounds. When I first saw my bouquet and my bridesmaids/maid of honor bouquet I was so happy and they met all my expectations! Inka did a fantastic job and we would highly recommend her for your special event!

I had no idea where to begin when choosing a florist. We met Inka and instantly knew we found the right one!! She is extremely talented, creative, professional and personable. I liked her style and she worked to figure out mine. When I saw our bouquets, arrangements, etc . . I was thrilled how everything turned out. We have received many compliments and I'm so happy she decorated our day!

The flower arrangements Inka created for my wedding were AMAZING!! I received numerous compliments from family and friends! Inka understood my vision and brought it to life!

Inka Browne did a fabulous job providing flowers, decor and ambience to my daughters wedding. She was very professional, extremely easy to work with and responsive. The bouquets were absolutely beautiful with all the right colors and elegant touch. The decor-centerpieces-etc were beyond what i imagined and made the tables look beautiful and festive.I can't thank you enough,Maureen Oswald

Inka listens carefully and has a knack for putting your vision in her arrangements. She had great suggestions and advice. We couldn't be happier with the way she did all of the flowers for our wedding.

Inka is phenomenal; from what I gather she only does special events and only takes a limited number of clients at a time. Inka was our floral designer for our wedding in May; we met her at her home in Annapolis to review what we wanted. She is a soft-spoken professional who knows her business and takes the time to ask a lot of questions about your vision for the flowers on your wedding day. We were married at a friend's house and Inka met us at the site to take a look at the space and discuss what we might need. She offered a lot of professional advice when she realized we didn't have a wedding planner; advice on things outside of the flowers. She didn't have to spend so much time on this, but she is a very kind-hearted person who genuinely cared about us and our wedding day. I collected by own milk glass vases & compotes in the years preceding the wedding and had a very definite idea of what I wanted and didn't want. I gave her info on the color palette I wanted, the types of flowers I liked and that I wanted all of my arrangements to be different from one another. She listened carefully, offered wonderful advice and arrived early on the day-of to set up. She even decorated the tables with props that we supplied. There was a miscommunication regarding whether or not this was included in the price we were quoted (very likely my fault - my mind was shot that close to the wedding) but she adjusted the price to include the set up of the props at no charge anyway. - She decorated an incredible arch for us to get married under- My bouquet was outstanding - There were tons of arrangements, all different, but all in a cohesive theme - The tablescaping she did for us was lovely All of the arrangements were lush and gorgeous - they were top notch and looked incredible. Inka was great about staying in touch with us. Even though she was making trips to Germany to see family, she returned our emails and was great about answering our questions and making sure we were comfortable with the price we were paying. She helped us find ways to stay within our comfort zone while still getting exactly what we wanted. I did not come away feeling like we were compromising or being deprived when we needed to revise the original plan to stay within budget. She was an absolute master of her trade and I very highly recommend her work.

My experience with Inka was amazing! She is a true professional and wonderful person to work with while planning our wedding. She has such a creative eye for making elegant arrangements. When I met Inka, she had the perfect vision for our small and intimate wedding at Quiet Waters Park and Ruth's Chris restaurant. She delivered above and beyond my expectations. We had big bloom flowers such as hydrangea, peonies, antique garden roses and such. She put together a very lush, rich and springy look for our wedding. The flowers truly made our day even better. She was able to accomodate our budget and arrange the most gorgeous flowers I could have ever imagined! She was such a pleasure to work with throughout all the planning and changes up until our special day. I highly recommend Inka for your wedding! You will not be disappointed!

Inka was absolutely delightful to work with from day 1 on. She was very professional and outlined a beautiful description of the flowers she was going to provide. She delivered beautiful centerpieces, bouquets, and boutonierres for our wedding and we were 150% satisfied. Will definitely utilize her services again in the future! Perfect!

I loved my flowers on my wedding day! They were beautiful and all the guest enjoyed the centerpieces!!!

Displeased and disappointed by another local florist, it was a true blessing to find Inka of Great Expectations. I knew from the beginning that Inka was an artist and professional. She works out of her darling home in Annapolis and truly lives for her creations. She grasped my vision from the start and worked with me to make that vision come to life. I dont think I could recreate the gasp that came from my mom and I when the bridal bouquets were delivered to my suite. They were staggering. So lush and bright and beautiful. I have never seen such beautiful blossoms. The cost for her services was incredibly reasonable and she even worked with a few vases that we provided that were left over from my bridal shower. She also waited to collect her rented vases and arrangements so that we could use them the morning after at the brunch. My wedding would not have been complete with any other florist. People are still talking about the flowers. I am so thankful to have found Inka.

Our flowers were beautiful - i highly recommend Great Expectations. lots of people asked who did our flowers

Great Expectations Flowers by Inka did an absolutely GORGEOUS job. They really helped make our day perfect and beautiful and captured the feel and the look I was going for incredibly. They were also amazingly flexible and reliable. I planned my wedding from across the country but Inka made it easy to do. Everything turned out even better than I dreamed! Plus the price for the quality of work absolutely could not be beat. Simply wonderful all around!

Inka was very sweet and easy to work with. I told her what I was looking for and she mastered it. My flowers were beautiful and she made all of the center pieces, girls bouquets and boutineers gorgeous. Her prices were very accomadating and they delivered all items in a timely manner. Excellent all around!!

Inka was wonderful throughout every step of the way! She knew exactly what I wanted and I was so impressed with everything! She was flexible and her prices were very reasonable. I definitely recommend using her!

Inka was great and our flowers turned out better than I expected! She has a great sense of design and creates beautiful arrangements. Plus, she's very sweet! She dealt with me being rather indecisive and trying to change everything at the last minute and I should have just trusted her all along because I loved all of our flowers. The bouquets were gorgeous and I got so many compliments on them. The centerpieces were very fresh and fit our tables and venue perfectly. Our ceremony flowers look fantastic in all the photos. Delivery and pickup was a breeze. Highly recommended.

Inka is such a wonderful person to work with. She is not your everyday wedding vendor. She becomes more like a friend by the time everything is said and done. Her work is amazing. I did not have an image in mind for my flowers, I just told Inka that we were having a peacock themed wedding. When I received my personal flowers and the bridesmaids flowers I was blown away, and when I finally saw the reception ballroom I was in tears. The room looked amazing and the colors Inka used were perfect. I highly recommend her to everyone getting married. You will not be disappointed!! She is truly amazing. All of my guests are still commenting on the flowers!

This was a really nice service. I thought the price was a little steep initially but when I saw all of the decor on the wedding day it seemed more worth it.Would definitely recommend them to friends.

A delight to work with. Made choosing the flowers for the wedding a very easy task. We brought some ideas to the table and Inka made them a reality. Her visions are extraordinary! We had more compliments on the flowers than anything else. We also felt the prices were reasonable. Selecting Great Expectations would be a very wise choice for your flower arrangements.

Our flowers by Great Expectations by Inka was absolutely gorgeous! They literally took my breath away when I saw them! Inka went above and beyond and I got so many comments from guests on how beautiful everything looked. I literally started crying when I walked out and saw all the flowers!When we booked her, I gave her a general idea on colors and flowers that I liked and she totally ran with it and created bouquets and centerpieces that were so unique, but exactly perfect! She was able to use lace from my mom's wedding dress to tie around my bouquet, as well as make a very unique Boutonni�re (using a fish hook) for the groom - which she even tied with fishing twine to make it even better than the picture I had showed her! About 2 weeks before the wedding, we met to finalize everything and Inka had SO many great last minute ideas to add to the overall decor. She ended up making 7 wreaths which were placed around the ceremony and cocktail hour and they were beautiful! Her prices were very reasonable as well and she definitely worked within our budget. I was so happy with everything and I absolutely loved working with Inka! I would highly recommend her to anyone!!
