Florist advice

Hi Ladies,

I have one more big thing to do for my wedding and that is to book a florist. Everything else is done, essentially.

My budget is $1500-$2500. Please let me know if there are any florists that you recommend.

We looked at the books at Flower Michele and loved them. I also saw some photos on the Bayview Florist website that I loved.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Pictures would be even better!

Thanks in advance!

Try Bunny's Floral. We haven't officially booked yet (have one more place to look), but her prices were good (2K for everything, incl. 10 centerpieces, and a nicely decorated chuppah with lots of flowers).

Absolutely. I LOVED Jen! Look at my album in my non-pro pics and my pro pics and you can see my cp's and bo-ks. they were beautiful and exactly what I envisioned. Oh, also, I recently found out that she uses organic flowers. My cp's lasted almost a month when they were at my guest's houses!

Wedding World in Commack can make really great arrangments. Their prices are very reasonable as well.

We're using East Williston Florists on Jericho Tpke in Mineola. They're a local florist shop, and they do weddings. We happen to know the owner, so that's why we went with them and got a great deal. But I'd recommend checking them out. My fiance always gets me flowers from there, and the flowers are so nice and last a long time.

Also, across from Floral Terrace is a florist - Jay Becker Florists. I don't know how their flowers are, but they are a recommended vendor by the Sand Castle.

I love Bayview. FH gets me flowers from there every week and they are always gorgeous. I booked them and am soooo happy with my decision. Lorraine made me feel so comfortable. Good luck

I third Verbena. Jenn is great and she works with all budgets. See pics in my album of my centerpieces.

We used Flower Michele - our flowers were gorgeous and John was great to work with.

I have an awesome florist, she works out of her house in Sayville, and she was super duper reasonable!! It is Flowers by Rosemarie, fm me for her number. Also, I heard Burtons also is very reasonable.
