I just came home from going to NW Florist..I was blown away with Ana and how amazing she was. I posted recently about florist troubles due to FMIL paying and me having to use her family friend who does not do weddings and no centerpieces. I thought Ana was wonderful and I am using her for centerpieces and have to get FMIL on board for her doing the whole thing.
Thanks so all who have posted and I just found this thread. I am so excited now about my flowers.

Yikes-we better be careful. They are doing my flowers for the same day. I had thought they only do 1 wedding per day. I'll double check with Ana-what time are your ceremony and reception? Ana said she personally sets up the flowers (I thought).

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

No they do MANY weddings per day.

I agree. They don't do one event per day. I've been in the shop where they were preparing for (from what I saw) two events...everything was under control.

I'm assuming that most businesses do more than one event per day.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD!

I was told they could do 5-7 weddings a day. I am sure though that they know what they are doing and everything will be fine. They probably have a whole bunch of people that help them out on the weekends that deliver and set up for each wedding. I think that Ana and another woman are the only one's that actually put the CP together (so you know they will come out beautiful), but I think they have other people deliver them and set them up (unless Ana told you she would set up your wedding).

If this is what you want, make sure it is written down - Ana told us she would be setting up and delivering our flowers, but she didn't. There were problems with the delivery and with the set up of our reception (all things that were written down).

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD! (Updated w/new address)

Thank you for the update on there new address! I hope to see more pictures soon

Are you going to (or already have) addressed the problems that occurred?

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD! (Updated w/new address)

Here's my review -

National Floral Wholesale – A+
By far my most favorite vendor. Ana went above and beyond in every aspect. Her prices are fantastic and the quality of her work is exquisite. She came to the Riviera to help set-up and when Maxine suggested we put some petals on the tables, Ana didn’t flinch. There were petals everywhere and it looked amazing! My bouquet was stunning. Three days later it was still beautiful. (The pictures of the bouquet on the table were taken 2 days after the wedding) I told Ana I wanted to marry my bouquet. She’s great at what she does and I strongly suggest giving her a call if you haven’t already booked a florist. Or, if you are having second thoughts about the florist you already have, that’s what I did and it was one of the best decisions I ever could have made!










Don't mind the possessed look on my face in this pic - it shows the great color of my bouquet

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD! (Updated w/new address)

I had an appointment with anna on the 16th of feb. and i saw all your centerpieces out that night, I was alittle scared that they were out two days before, but you said they were good. I am still undecided if i am picking her.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD! (Updated w/new address)

Absolutely beautiful Marlo! Thanks so much for sharing!

Question: Did you request the rose petals or did Ana just bring them with her?

Why don't you go and visit them and get a sample CP made up.

I wouldn't go on how many people book a particular vendor, more over than them giving you what you want for how much you want.

There are vendors that are very popular and 'everyone' books them, but they have theif off-day's.

I would check them out and make the judgement call on your own. Good Luck.

I agree-it's important that you click with your vendor rather than how many people on here book or don't book with them. I would make an appt and go in and see them.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD! (Updated w/new address)

yes, i made an appointment with her, but i didn't ask her to make a centerpiece yet, I will do that, but it gets me scared when people tell me not to book them, b/c they had mad experiences with them YES i know some people will have mad experiences with vendors. Everything is like that.

No one should determine who you should book with and who you shouldn't book with - besides you and your FI.

There are plenty of people in the world that exaggerate their experience with vendors, and many people that are more picky than others.

Yes, people had 'personality' conflicts with Fred or Ana, but that's something you have to personally find out for yourself, and see how much that weighs on you.

If it's 'problems' that brides and grooms had with their service on the day of the wedding - dead flowers, lateness, wrong colors, etc - then I would look at those closely and make the decision.

Re: OFFICIAL National Floral Wholesale THREAD! (Updated w/new address)

Meeting with Ana this weekend! I'm very excited. Any words of wisdom for me girls?
