Ok so I am about to start my research on the one vendor I have been dreading....florists!!! I like flowers but have no desire to spend an obscene amount of money on them. I would prefer more candles and foliage than thousands of flowers that are going to die within a day or so. So, with that being said, I was looking to get your feedback on a few that have been recommended to me so far and/or give your recommendations and approx. price points...Many thanks!
Florists recommended so far:
Flowers by Brian Pedestals B*urtons Designs by Rose Flower Barn LA Blossom

I really recommend making an appt. with Designs by Rose. She is super sweet, talented and her price was the cheapest I received. She really works with you.

Michelle from Hidden Essence!! We met with 7 different florists and Michelle gave us the best price. She's extremely easy to work with and she will work with you on your budget. I didn't know anything about flowers but I had an idea of how I wanted it to look, she has a creative vision and it looked amazing on our wedding day. She puts all of her weddings on her facebook page so you can see every wedding that she's done. FM me if you need more info!
Thanks...this helps so far! Anyone else have any feedback???

We used Designs by Rose. She was one of the nicest people that I got a quote from. She also made us two sample CPs before we even booked with her.

Designer florals by Sharon.
She is not one of the big vendors on here...but she is amazing and a sweetheart. She really worked with my priced, and is truly a designer not just a florist. My budget was $2k and she stayed right in it and gave me a TON!

I am booked with designs by rose. She had the best price for my 'no green' rule.

We booked Michelle but Flower Barn was a close second. They are priced very well and do great work.

I used B*RTONS and they were WONDERFUL!! I had ivory roses and blue orchids (GORGEOUS) my girls had pink gerber daisies yellow calla lillies and blue orchids. They looks awesome and stayed fresh the entire night (I was nervous about that). My centerpieces were also stunning (I got low centerpieces).

Re: Florist Opions/Suggestions Needed
I had similar concerns as you. Can't say I checked everyone on your list out but I ended up booking with P**destals. There price is a little higher than some vendors but the flowers last. They created a CP for me to check out and a week later it still looked amazing when going back to the shop. They have really nice accessory pieces (like crystal candle holders, etc.) They truly listen and try to make you happy. They even gave me a sample of my flowers to take home so I could make sure I was happy with the way they looked with my BM dresses.
Go with your gut....I didn't do that at first and ended up changing vendors and losing my deposit. Get lots of opinions from people (and not just the good ones).

Lots of luck!
Thanks...that's what I am looking for...both the good and bad reviews. To be honest, I get such mixed reviews about B*urton's even though I hear they are the best on pricing! This is such a pain!

Perfect Rose in East Islip. I can't say enough good things about the owner, Tina. Her prices and customer service have been amazing.
