Am I making the wrong decision

Re: Am I making the wrong decision

did you book them already?
My advice to all brides who question the vendors is to check the BBB and past posts and compare.

Re: Am I making the wrong decision

as a bride who has booked jack...

you will hear alot of mixed reviews about jack and rose. alot of it has to do with contracts and delivery fees, tax and gratuity. check out the bbb and see for yourself. i have to say that so far, jack has provide excellent customer service to me and fh. we shall see how our final product comes out.

you will get alot of opinions from this board, and it can be overwhelming. go with what your gut tells you. only you can make that decision.

I am using LAurie from LA Blossom...she is AMAZING and I want to also add, I saw Oct.2004brides wedding last weekend and she used Flowers by Brian and her flowers and CP's were probably the best I have EVER seen at a wedding. I was VERY impressed.

I used Laurie from LA Blossom! she was fantastic- she really helped me a lot- I booked her right before my wedding and she came through for me even more than I could have imagined!

There are so many florists out there, why go with someone who has a shady record with the BBB. Check out Flower Michele, John is wonderful to work with.

Re: Am I making the wrong decision

Click here and in the name type in Jack and Rose and select NY.

http://search.bbb.org/search.html

Do a search in the 'Bride's Review' section and look at all the brides who used him and were unhappy. Most were happy with the flowers but the service is lacking. You have more important things to be doing then worrying about a vendor.

My advice...since you asked...keep looking.
