Re: Anyone know a good florist...?+

I just met with James Cress, high quality, but expensive - let me know if you meet with them.

Re: Anyone know a good florist...?+

I met with Spitz and Peck and JAmes Cress, both were expensive, but it was obvious that they are reputable and do good work. S&P was less willing to work with us on a tight budget, but Mr. Cress was quite flexible. However, I went with Burton's and would definitely recommend them.

Re: Anyone know a good florist...?+

I have heard mixed reviews of Spitz & Peck. They are pricey, and very popular. I think that they basically started taking on more affairs then they could handle, so the results became fairly unpredictable.

Re: Anyone know a good florist...?+

My aunt used Spitz & Peck & the bouquet came & the flowers were almost dying. In their defense though, they gave her a new bouquet right away.

Re: Anyone know a good florist...?+

Do a search on Spitz and Peck- they have not gotten the best reviews on here, it was enough to make me not want to look at them... SonicStef If I recall, kind of got burned with them!

Re: Anyone know a good florist...?+

I used James Cress and HIGHLY recommend them. My flowers were GORGEOUS!!!!
They were pricey, but not as pricey as Flowers by Brian.
I got more for my $$$$, and Mr Cress is so nice to work with.

Re: Anyone know a good florist...?+

I absolutely loved the work Flowers by Brian did for our Sept. 2001 wedding. If I recall right, they were the first vendor we booked, after signing with John Anthony's and getting the Church .. and they were the first and only florist we saw. The flowers were stunning, lasted for a long time after the wedding and the staff was so incredible to work with. I highly recommend them!! We dealt with Lisa and Bobbi.

Re: Anyone know a good florist...?+

My sister used Spitz and Peck 12 years ago at her wedding, and her flowers were dying all night too. Weird.

Re: Anyone know a good florist...?+

My flowers were not dying but they were not able to do what I asked despite very specific instructions AND they charged more than other florists AND they were just plain rude at times.
