We are using them, and they have been wonderful so far.

Originally we booked more than a year ago, and since then my vision of what flowers I want to use has completely changed. We just had a 2nd consultation with them, and they couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating.

I have my appointment for a sample CP in a few weeks, and will post pics when I get home from seeing it.

I really really really like Laurie from LA Blossom- she is doing my aisle runner for me and she is doing the flowers for my friend Nicole's wedding. Nicole RAVES about her and all of her reviews on the boards are excellent.

HTH!

hahah I was just responding to this!

I love love love Laurie of LA Blossom.
It's one of those vendor relationships where she knows EXACTLY what I want, but better. She's as sweet as can be, and she bends over backwards to make us happy.

I always rave about her - I can't help it!

I had a lousy experience with Flower Michele, and honestly, a lot of former employees no longer work there, so their rudeness may have changed.

Pedestals was very nice - we met with Nadia - she was supersweet. Their quote was on the higher end of all of the quotes we received. 2 months after my appt with Nadia (I didn't book), I got a call from another woman offering to lower the price to get us to book. Sooooo maybe that's a lesson learned - don't book with them right away, because their prices are negotiable?

Re: la blossom, flower michelle, pedestals

we booked flower michele last weekend. i was hesitant going there because we had a great experience at pedestals and i had it in my head that we would just book them. but, we met with john, the owner, at FM and he is really fantastic. both DF and i felt that he was down to earth and passionate about his business. it wasn't just a sales pitch to him. also, his prices were much lower than pedestals.....

Re: la blossom, flower michelle, pedestals

I booked with pedestals (marcella). They were actually my lowest price (after a little negoiating on my part) and did a sample that amazed me. I know a lot of brides on here had good experiences with La Blossom, but she actually came in as my highest quote and wasn't giving me what I wanted, which was an all orchid arrangement.
Sorry, I didn't meet with Flower Michelle.

Re: la blossom, flower michelle, pedestals

im using Pedestals. I agree that you should not book right away because they called me 2 weeks later offering to lower the price.

We're using Pedestals. I'm not sure I got the lowest price out there, but their work is AMAZING. So far, I'm pleased with them.

I'm using LA Blossom. Laurie is great, very talented and knows her stuff. I changed my mind about my centerpieces last week and she was totally calm about it. I can't wait to see my sample centerpiece!

I SAY LA BLOSSOMS!! MY FBIL and his FW are using them and RAVED!!!!! SHe was my lowest quote but i ended up w/ Verbena because they're organic, although Laurie said she could get me organic flowers too....i kinda kicked myself but i loved Jenn too....my vote goes w/ LA blossoms!

Re: la blossom, flower michelle, pedestals

I booked with Flower Michele and so far I love everything they have shown me and John is just amazing. You can tell he really just loves what he does. We booked him on the spot.
