I booked Flowers By Brian-- highly recommended by my reception venue and I liked his ideas- esp. after I told him what I was looking for-- didn't give me the 'bolier plate' bridal contract.

omg, i couldn't recommend flower michele more. john is beyond wonderful - he respects your vision and uses his expertise to work with it. also, his prices are eminently reasonable and he'll work within your budget to achieve the look you're going for.

highly recommend giving him a call!!

Pedestals-rob had really great ideas and spent a lot of time working with me on both ideas and price.

I just met with and booked John from Flowers Michelle this past weekend. He was so great, knowledgeable, honest, talented...I could go on. It was my favorite vendor appointment/planning thing to date with the wedding. And...his ideas are so creative and flowers looked just gorgeous!!!

We used Flower Michele and LOVED his work. I met with tons of florists and just loved his creativity and pricing.

Re: florist recommendations

How much are you paying/did you pay for flowers?

Did you bring pictures with you to the first meeting?

Mine is Flowers by Lorraine in Massapequa.

I brought photos of bouquets, centerpieces and bouts that I liked from the internet. I also brought a swatch and picture of my BM dresses and a photo of my dress, so she could get a feel for the style of my wedding.

It may have been overkill, but she complimented me on being prepared and said it was helpful.
