Flower Center Among ‘The Knot Best Of Weddings’

CLIFTON FORGE — The Flower Center has been selected as a 2021 winner of “The Knot Best of Weddings,” an accolade representing the highest- and most-rated wedding professionals as reviewed by real couples, their families and wedding guests on The Knot, a leading wedding planning and registry brand and app.
Despite COVID-19 interrupting many 2020 weddings and social events, wedding professionals around the nation continued to support to-be-weds throughout their wedding planning journeys.
From adjusting future schedules to make way for postponed weddings, to helping couples host socially distanced weddings following state and local guidelines and restrictions with an increased focus on health and safety, wedding pros — and the industry as a whole — rallied together in 2020, ultimately helping couples continue to celebrate life and love.
The Knot 2021 Best of Weddings recognition honors the vendors who went above and beyond to help to-be-weds navigate the global pandemic.
In 2021, 5 percent of hundreds of thousands of local wedding professionals listed on The Knot received this distinguished award. In its 15th annual year, The Knot continues its long-standing tradition of supporting local wedding vendors with The Knot Best of Weddings 2021, an annual by-couples, for-couples guide to the top wedding professionals across the country.
This comes as the industry prepares for an increase in upcoming celebrations due to postponed events throughout 2020.
To determine the winners, The Knot analyzed its millions of user reviews across various vendor categories — including venues, musicians, florists, photographers, caterers and more — to find the highest rated vendors of the year.
These winners represent the best of the best wedding professionals that engaged couples should consider booking for their own unique weddings.
“We have had to pivot in a major way to accomplish all we have this year,” said Erin Huffman, owner of The Flower Center. “We were very honored to receive this award, as it was awarded to the top 5 percent of florists.
“We love doing weddings, and events, and appreciate all of the awesome couples we have worked with this year,” Huffman continued. “We are looking forward to many more beautiful events to come.”
