Have you considered low cp? with 22 tables that could make a big difference!

Re: just got backkkk from Pedestals
Flower michellle told me 8950!!!!!! FH fell off the chair!
$8950???? That is INSANITY!!!
My flowers were $3500 with Pedastals and I only have 12 high CPs.... I think that quote sounds about right... I mean, yeah, it's a ton of $$$$ for sure... but if you're getting what you want maybe it;s not terrible...

yoou know what bothers me, you cant actually SEE the cp for a few months before the wedding. So in reality, I have no idea how 'FULL' and whatever they really are.
They did a sample for me a year in advance. I am working with Nadia and she told me to call her around the time I will be getting married this year so I can see what flowers are in season and see what the CP will look like, she made one for me, I ended up liking some other girl's sample and went with that... call them back and tell them you want to see a sample before hand. They make them all of the time for their show room I doubt they would tell you no.

Check out Verbena Designs. Jen was great to work with and she totally worked with our budget. Figure out a realistic budget of what you want to spend and give her a call.

Did you book them? Check Flower Michele they were the best I found (not the cheapest but not the most expensive either) Although I am not sure they are booking anymore weddings for 2010. Worth a shot though :)

please go to burtons before you book flowers!! I went to four places including pedestals and they were by FAR the cheapest. Also their price remains the same no matter what flowers you choose... also consider doing low and high CPs or just low! I mean, I WANT high, but they are 25 extra per table and its not THAT important to me. Id rather have low ones that will be just as nice and keep some money in my pocket, ya know? Thats just me though ( im a bride on a budget)! Good luck!

I saw Pedestals also and Verbena was much cheaper AND they did a sample before booking, maybe you should check out Jen and see if she gives you a better price?
ive heard great things about them i so wanted to meet with them but they were booked on our date
yes jen is amazing!! she quoted me less then pedestals.. and im talken like 1500 less... big difference!!! :) def check her out.. I hear designs by rose is awesome as well and eally works with your budget.. especially if your using tall centerpieces:) GL
