Flower Michelle

We are starting to make appointments with Florist's. We have out first appointment on Saturday with Burton's. I am thinking of also making an ppointment with Flower Michelle. Is anyone using them and also are they reasonable?

We are using them. We clicked with John. He understood what we wanted and gave his input. My mom was all for using a local florist because she felt it would be cheaper, but once we got the price from Flower Michele, we booked because she felt it was very reasonable as do I.

We booked with them! We met with a few florists also and John gave us the best deal! All of the florists were around the same price, but he was offering so much more

We're using John - he was so nice and really got our style, which is really minimal, even though I know he's done really fancy stuff for other people. So easy to work with.

Re: Flower Michelle

my friend used them they are good in the beginning, just make sure you get what you ask for they are disorganized when setting up were not done when the bride was taking photos miscounted centerpieces, and wrong bride bouqet so make sure you go over everything before the day of the wedding and stay on top of him check your room before the guests go in, overall presentation to the guests was great.

Re: Flower Michelle

We used FM for our 5/07 wedding. FM's prices were the best and John was able to guide us through the process easily during our meetings. Of the florists we visited, FM was the most reasonably priced. He was more difficult to get in touch with later on, leading to some communication difficulties about my bouquet. In the end, it worked out fine.

Still would give them an A or A-, but not an A+ because it would take up to two weeks for him to call me back--I never did get to see a sample of my bouquet (but if he had called me back on a timely basis, we might have had the time) and I had to transmit my clarifications on the bouquet (they were not changes) to him over the phone.

My understanding from the other posters on this board is that 2007 was a challenging year for FM because a business partner left in the late summer. My wedding was in May and whether there were issues at that time, I don't know. Another poster on this board said that M acknowledged it had taken on a lot in 2007 and was planning to pace its workload in 2008. Do a search and you'll probably find these threads.
