Florists - Opinions Needed- FBB or Pedestals

Original post by mara1017

Hi Girls:

I met with Cindy at Flowers by Brian and Nigel at Pedestals. The quote at Flowers by Brian was $50 a centerpiece cheaper than Pedestals.

I liked Nigel better although I also liked Cindy. I am confused. Mainly because my best friend had used Flowers by Brian and they had brought bouquets that were dead. They did replace them before the wedding but it is disheartening that they would have even sent the dead ones.

We are paying for the wedding so every penny counts. But at the same time I want to make sure I am happy.

What do you guys think about these two vendors. All opinions welcome. If you would rather you can FM me,

Thanks so much
Mara

There is not a consultation fee. I would not give them a number up front. Let them give you the quote and you can go back to them later to negotiate. The prices really depend on what you are looking for

Thanks!

The latter florist, when asked about the bad rating, said there are allegations BBB gives better ratings if you pay them
Here's the site:

What do you girls think about this?

I tried searching the name but couldn't find any reviews..just that they got a bad bbb rating. Anyone want to link me to reviews of ppl here who used them as a vendor? Much appreciated!

I just talked to the bride of a wedding I went to in August and I told her I loved her centerpieces and she used FBB so I would feel comfortable using them. I don't know anything about Pedestals though. Good luck!
