James Cress Florist?

I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of/visited/used this florist (they have two locations, so please let me know which you've been to). My mom uses them for flowers for her office, and she would really like me to go with them too. I will be checking out a couple of other places to get an idea of prices, but would really love to hear from you ladies!

Re: James Cress Florist?

if you do a search there is a thread about them....

the only experience really that i had with them is seeing their flowers at a showcase and i rememblooking at them and thinking 'oh my, they are already dying and they have been here for less than 2 hours'...when i asked about them..tehy also gave me high prices for what they were giving

i also have heard good things about them

hope this helps

My FSIL used them last September and I thought everything was beautiful. Compared to other florists they are on the more expensive side. Let me try to find a pic of my FSIL's flowers....

My friend used them for her wedding about 4 yrs ago. She was extremely happy and continues to recommend them. She brought them a picture of how she wanted her Bo-k to be to a tee and it came out amazing. I must say they are pricey though.

Re: James Cress Florist?

I actually met with mr. Cress - who isn't what I pictured at all. I met with one other florist and him, and I actually though that JC was priced better... but he told me that flowers should be decided after the bm dresses. So I stopped looking around for now - but I just wanted to say I thought he was really professional, and with a staff of 60, I wouldn't be concerned that something would not get there on time. I m really considering him.
