Re: How many florists did you visit

We looked a 3 florists, Pedestals, Flower Michele and a friend of my in-laws.

We decided on Flower Michele - he was the ONLY one who got us excited over flowers!

Re: How many florists did you visit

I only went to 2. The more choices I gove myself, the harder it is for me to decide! Also, I happened to really love the florists work at my decided florist (Flowers by Liz) so that helped me a lot!

I went to 3, one didn't have the candelabra's wven though i loved her work, one was too expensive so I went with Burton's, I heard great things about them, from friends, and I liked the price, and that I could get any flower.

Re: How many florists did you visit

I went to three or four. I can't remember. But Flower Michele was my second visit and nothing compared so I called the next day and booked him.

2 - Wicks and Milleridge Florist. When we went to Milleridge, I fell in love with the people there - they were incredibly helpful and knowledgable, plus it looked like they loved their jobs. So I picked them.

4 - Flower Michele, Burtons, James Cress, & Flowers by Rosemarie.

Booked Flower Michele - John made me feel like my wedding was special, and he worked off my ideas rather than ignoring them (James Cress) or treating me like a number (Burtons).
