06 Ladies looking for a florist!!!

I just want to express how much I loved my florist & my flowers.

I started off shopping for the tree branch centerpiece - if you now what that is.
Some florists seemed nice - but really didn't 'get' the design I wanted.

Other florists - basically, it was a used car dealership and I felt so uncomfortable.

Then I met Jennifer of Verbena Designs (www.verbenadesigns.com)
I was so elated with my flowers - I can't even tell you how wonderful it was to work with her.

If you have that need for creativity, or you have a certain idea maybe you see in a magazine - she can replicate it exactly.
Even if it's some obscure flower that is in the arrangement - she can identify it immediately, and find it! The flowers I asked for are the flowers I got - and they were gorgeous.
She is a floral genious!

After our meeting, she took so many notes initially and sent me a PROPOSAL. Yes, in the mail - a proposal with pictures, descriptions, details, etc. So professional - she takes her job seriously and you can tell she loves what she does.

Although this is not my formal review - I just wanted to let you know that she is went above & beyond my expectations and I can't stop raving about her!

Her prices came in just a bit lower than others - but the QUALITY and variety of flowers I received was something I know I wouldn't have received from any other florist I interviewed.

I told her I like pumpkins - you should have seen my placecard table - she carved out these mini pumpkins and placed a votive inside of them. Every accent was beautiful - she found these orangey- what might be mini tomatoes? Lol...on a long stalk and intertwined them into the table with real beautiful leaves. I couldn't believe they were real until I touched them and was shocked!

She is AMAZING. Definitely put her on your list of florists to visit.

I will post pics of my flowers when I get a chance - but you should go to her website to see what I'm talking about! My bouquet was right out of a Martha Stewart Magazine!

I met with Jennifer and she was great. ONLY issue we had with her was the fact that she only had a store front. She was only there when she had appointments. She also works mainly on her own with a small staff. We were going to look at the hall with her one day and she got sick. She had to cancel and FH and I thought, what if she's sick for the wedding?
Glad everything worked out well for you and I BELIEVE her work to be FANTASTIC!! Please post pics as soon as you can!

She did Meadow from Sopranos wedding.

Great website!
Did you say her prices came in lower than most florists? Thanks.

Thanks so much..this is the vendor i am struggling to choose. I just felt like all of the florists gave me the same types of designs...and to be honest all of them asked me to tell them what i wanted...I have no idea about flowers (the reason i work in a book store and not in any kind of artistic job) I know that they want to get an idea of what i am looking for, but i would like for once to walk into a place and have them say ..I am an artist and this is what i see for your wedding. Does anyone understand what I'm saying?
