Ellyse was an absolute dream to work with as our florist. She truly listened to everything I envisioned and somehow managed to exceed all my expectations with the most beautiful arrangements. Communication was so easy and stress-free the entire time, and her work on the day was nothing short of perfect. I couldn’t have asked for anything more!

Ellyse did the flowers for our wedding in April. She was so lovely to work with. She helped us with things we weren’t sure about and ensured our theme and vision for the wedding exceeded expectations. I absolutely loved my wedding bouquet and wished I had it preserved to keep forever. Definitely recommend Ellyse, would love to work with her again.

Ellyse was incredible! She met me at the venue to plan every little detail, and what seemed like a huge task while planning a wedding became one of the easiest parts thanks to Ellyse! She brought my Pinterest board to life! We couldn't have asked for a better florist for our day.

Ellyse was without a doubt my most organised wedding supplier. She would call and remind me even when I forgot. Her clear communication was very reassuring in the lead-up to the big day, and my flowers looked beautiful and were still in perfect condition three days later.

Ellyse did an exceptional job for our wedding. She helped with so many items for the wedding from florals, set up of the reception, styling ideas and even babysitting our 1 year old. We changed so much throughout the planning but she was so patience with us through the journey. Thank you so much for making the day look like Lauren and i dreamt it would be.

Ellyse was very organised and professional to deal with in organising flowers for a wedding during the uncertainty caused by COVID19. I am really glad that I chose Red Poppy Florist for my wedding arbour and bouquet pieces as the flowers were beautiful and affordable. Would highly recommend to any prospective brides and grooms for her floral services.

Excellent value for money. The floral arrangement was beautiful, with plenty of variety and very fresh flowers that lasted a long time. Without a doubt, the best florist in Mittagong by far.
