Was extremely disappointing. They quoted me 2000 more than FBB and I felt like the person helping me had no vision. He just kept showing me photo after photo on the computer instead of listening to what I was saying.
Oh well.

Midnight and Alannah - I'd love to know who your florists are as well!! I definitely want someone that has a vision and listens to what my vision is, I don't want them showing me cookie cutter arrangements!!
Thanks!

Alannah, I plan on checking out Bella because I've heard good things!
The one I went to yesterday though is very popular so I was surprised. I may have just got the wrong employee.

I'm using Bella Flowers and love Cristina!! She really listened to what I wanted and stayed withing my budget. She had great ideas in how we can keep my vision, but do it so it's affordable. She also knew my venue very well had thought of things we could do that I would have never even thought of!

sorry to hear about your not so good experience. Keep looking at vendors. Or perhaps go back to that florist and request a new person to help you.

Maybe the florist you saw was having an off day. I hope the next person you check out is better!

I was thinking of that because I was really thinking of using them but I don't know. I feel kind of rude saying I didn't like the last person. He will still be there and everything.

I used James Anthony Floral. He does beautiful work and very very reasonably priced. He is the house vendor for Russo's and Oheka.

I know what you mean but I did this when booking JT. FH and I loved everything about JT but when we first went, we felt like the person who was assigned to us wasn't really trying to offer us anything or make us enthusiastic about booking there. He was just like this is what we offer and this is the price and he answered all our questions and thats it. I told FH I really like this place and I feel like going back and seeing someone else. He was like I agree you should do this. And I did, I went the next day with my mother and the BM that gave me and my mom the tour was very helpful and he really showed he was interested in helping us in everyway possible if we booked there. He took us to the kitchen, gave us food and even threw in some freebies for us. Right then and there I was sold. I told FH my experience when he got home from work and he was even excited too.

I second this... Cristina has been more than amazing!

I'm going to Bella Flowers on Saturday and my aunt still wants to check out Wicks. Hopefully after that I'll have a decision.
