Florist - somebody who 'gets it'

Ok girls, since I am one of the last 2010er to get married I know am waaaay behind in the process and still hung up on finding a florist.

I am going to NY next weekend and I must book a florist then bc I wont be back until Thanksgiving. Can you suggest a creative florist that is willing to work with more than just roses???

(No offense but I just wants something different.) Also, I have already met with Flowerbarn and Spitz and Peck.

I just booked with Roots in Port Jeff. Corey is awesome and really understood what I wanted. I specifically told her that I didn't want roses, I want more of a wild flower look. And she worked with my budget!

I love With All My Heart! I met with a ton of florists and even though they were a little bit more expensive, I felt like they really knew their stuff and understood exactly what I wanted. Definitely recommend them!

Tommy at Cress in Douglaston was fantastic. He totally got my vision (even when I had trouble articulating it). People were fighting over the CPs!

i absolutely recommend masters & co. in rvc.
She is WONDERFUL! and all i did was describe (in a werid way) what i was looking for, and she went in the back, pulled some stuff out and created an awesome centerpiece on the spot! She just totally understood what i wanted.

So far I have really liked Jen from Verbena and Richard from Perfect Wedding Planner Florals.

My florist is Andrew Pascoe. He definitely gets it! He is on the expensive side, but completely worth it. I actually told him I do not want any Roses in my CPs or Bo-ks and he was not at all limited in his ideas or flower selection.
