Plant Office

Jon was fantastic to work with for our wedding. He was very responsive, creative, and genuinely fun throughout the process. He communicated clearly about scope and helped us stay within our budget while still creating a beautiful setup. You can really tell he cares about his work and about delivering the best possible result. We were thrilled with how everything turned out and would highly recommend him.

My spouse and I hired John/the Plant Office as our wedding florist and it was the best decision we could have made. After struggling for months to find a florist that met our needs and was within our budget, we lucked out with the Plant Office - John very graciously fit us in their schedule only three weeks before our wedding! John was incredibly efficient, thorough, and professional throughout the process, even with a very tight turnaround. During our consultation, John took great care to understand our vision, needs, and personal preferences while taking us step by step through the process, then provided two detailed proposals at different price points for us to choose between. At no point did I feel rushed or confused about anything; he laid everything out in clear terms, from the invoice to day-of instructions. We were able to get everything we wanted (and more) at a price that worked for our budget, which felt pretty miraculous after contending with the Portland, ME wedding market. Everything was absolutely perfect the day of the wedding. Delivery and set up at the ceremony site and reception venue went smoothly, the flowers were pristine from start to finish, and all of the arrangements looked amazing. I could have spent all day admiring our bouquets and the gorgeous ground arch that they crafted. Our other vendors, especially our venue staff and wedding planner, said that John was exceptional to work with. Our guests (as well as the catering + venue staff) raved about the flowers and were overjoyed to take some of them home at the end of the night! We would recommend the Plant Office to anyone looking for wedding florals – or just a bouquet for special occasion (I’ve gotten most of my flowers from the Plant Office since the wedding and they are always beautiful!). I’d also like to add that my spouse and I are queer, and we felt so comfortable and welcomed throughout our interactions with John. They never made any assumptions about us or our preferences based on gender, and helped us come up with a wedding aesthetic that fit our needs perfectly.

I came to John Sundling with a creative vision for my wedding flowers. He listened, took notes, asked the right questions—and then took it somewhere I couldn't have imagined on my own. What arrived wasn't just flowers. It was atmosphere. The arrangements transformed the room in a way that matched the exact tone and intention of our wedding. Somehow John understood not just what I asked for, but what I was trying to say. The result was a work of art. Otherworldly, honestly. Not that I'm planning on getting married again, but if I did? I wouldn't call anyone else. Plant Office is the real thing.

We worked with John for our wedding this past October and had a wonderful experience. We didn't have a clear vision of what we wanted for florals — we wanted to be able to hand it off to someone who would be excited to come up with their own designs. John was a fantastic partner in that. They asked thoughtful questions about our needs and budget, explained the thought process they were going through as they considered what pieces we were looking for, and were overall a great resource for this part of our day. We absolutely loved how the florals came out! As a bonus, we forgot to grab the bouquets at the end of the night. John came back to clean up once the event had ended, and when we realized the next morning, they coordinated with us so that we could head over to the shop and pick them up and hold onto a piece of the work they did. That extra care and consideration meant so much!

We hired John / Plant Office for our wedding and they were an absolute delight! They immediately understood our vibe (dark, moody, Stevie Nicks) and we were not disappointed! Everyone talked about our florals and John took such great care with us. He hand delivered my bouquet and my husband’s boutonnière on our wedding day at the hotel. They also worked with our budget and took our input then went with it. As a type A over-planner, they knew how to give me just enough input and reassurance while also making it happen without stressing me out. I can’t tell you how important that was to me and I’m so grateful we went with them! (photos by Leah Michaud Photography)
