OK, I know I am being a pain in the but, but i am so torn. I am so afraid to make this decision. My flowers are soooo darn expensive, but I have pretty much made a decison to go with Verbena Designs, (Jen). HAs anyone met with her, used her, the good and the bad please. I have been to sooooo many florists, i am tired!

not using Jenn - but she does great work, only one wedding at a time. She's a sweetheart too. You're in great hands. Definitely book with her.

I AM Not using verbana but have heard alot about them on here. Go to search and put verbana in the search tool and many threads will come up about them. Also underneath the search name there is a drop down menu to pick a forum, go to brides review, this way you get to hear a full review on verbana and how they did the day of the wedidng, which is most important

It was a really hard decision.
John was just SO creative. He had really great ideas and came in at my budget.
Jenn was awesome as well - not AS creative and a little bit more $$$.
It came down to money for me....
The best thing about Verbena is they only do one wedding a day. That is really, really personal service. If I had the money, I would have went with Jenn. I would have taken John's ideas and brought them to her.

I had talked with John at Flower Michele, I sent him over eveything that I wanted but have yet to hear from him. We were unable to schedule a time to meet due to conflicts, but I do want to hear what he has to say, I will call him tomorrow. I do like the fact that she only has one wedding though. And with the creativity, i know exactly what i wanted so i am not too picky in that dept. but he was less expensive, thats whats killing me, my flowers are running about $5,000. I got a quote from Burtons,did not put money down, and he gave the day away, and that was for $3,500, so its killin me to have to pay so much more. Ahhhh. So after 20 florists I am ready to shoot myself. Then when speaking with the potential DOC, she said Jen does good by Designs by Rose and LA BLossom (both of whom i saw yesterday and waiting for estimates) give you more for your money, but i am so torn. PLus, Jen i sgoing to do my chair bows at an amzing price and the ceiling decorations. I am sooo confused
