Got a call from pedestals last night...

and my floral designer left. We had tracked him down because he is supposed to be amazing. He was supposed to do FH's sisters wedding when he was at flower Michele but left before her wedding. this is such BS that this happened again! FH wanted to go there last night and get our deposit back and i was like, um its 4 months to our wedding we need to find someone else first before we cancel them.
We had already been looking at possibly changing florists because of the price . now i fell like its an omen and we should definitely change.

Oh man I'm so sorry that happened to you! I haven't done my floral booking yet but from what I've heard, Pedestals overall does a fantastic job so Im' sure the other designers will do an outstanding job!

MaryAnn definitely give Flowers by Brian a call. They met Pedestals' price when I was booked. I worked with Joseph Campbell when booking and he was AMAZING! HTH!

That sucks

If you decide that you are still looking for a new florist, give Lynn @ Florisan, LLC (a vendor here) a call. FH and I are working with her and she's been absolutely lovely

Check out Hidden Essence. Michelle is awesome and my flowers were AMAZING.

FM me if you want more info.

Edit: Oh, and she is super affordable, because she works out of her home and doesn't have to pay the type of rent that Pedestals must have to pay for that space.

I almost booked with Pedestals because of Rich alone. I am so glad I didn't.

I ended up with Flowers by Brian. They came in cheaper than Pedestals.

Good luck!

I am working with Virgil there and I love him! Maybe try speaking with him.

Before you loose your deposit I would definitely recommend calling and seeing if you can speak with someone else. Hey, maybe you will like thim or her just as much.

Oh no!!! I booked with Rich also, I didn't even look at another florist because I really liked him! Keep us posted on what is going on with your florals! I am afraid I might have to start looking for a new one also!

Thats crazy - I had met with Rich back in June 2011 at Flowers by Brian and found out he is no longer with them... He seemed to be so nice and professional.
