My fiance and I went to see Flower Michele and Flower Barn. We are having a hard time picking between the two. I have heard great things about Flower Barn. However, I have read mixed reviews about Flower Michele. I really liked what John had to say at Flower Michele but I'm just so worried after what I read. Any advice would be helpful.

Re: Flowers
I may be partial. I am using Flower Barn. Michael was so easy to talk to and really listened to what I want and is giving me that. I know a few people that used them and they were Etremely happy/ I did not meet with Flower Michele.
I met with both Flower Barn and Flower Michele as well. Mike was great - he's so sweet and we were really considering booking him, however, once we got to FM and sat down with John, it was a done deal. John is SO creative, enthusiastic and knowledgeable (plus he's also SO nice) - we were really impressed with him because not only did he listen to what we wanted, he also gave us new ideas. On the day of our wedding, we were VERY pleased with his work - guests are still amazed by how gorgeous the CP's were, and my bouquet was absolute perfection.
I know it's discouraging when you hear negative things about a vendor, but please realize that on a board of thousands of people, there are always going to be negatives along with the positives.
ETA - John also gave us a MUCH better price

We're using Flower Michele too, we LOVE John! I met with one other flower vendor and I wasn't impressed.... and they wanted to charge us more. John is very enthusiastic, has tons of suggestions, and is just super easy to work with.
Also... you have FM.

Re: Flowers
I love, love, love Flower Barn. My friend used them last summer (07) and her flowers were so pretty, that is why we went with them initially.

Re: Flowers
I am not up to flowers yet but when I get that far I will be looking at FM, Butons, and Flower Barn. I have only heard great things about all three.
I know that Burtons is a little less expensive, but I heard that FM and FB were well worth it.

Re: Flowers
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE FLOWER MICHELLE. I COULDNT HAVE IMAGINED BOOKING WITH SOMEONE ELSE... HE IS SUPER CREATIVE, CHIC, AND REALLY GOOD PRICES FOR THE QUALITY OF WORK THAT HE IS PUTTING OUT.

Re: Flowers
I used FM and while there were a few things that werent exactly what we had talked about I was still 99% happy with my flowers-the only things that were wrong were boks were tied incorrectly and we were missing a hurricane with my CPs->I didnt notice this until I got my pictures back. I would still recommend them.
