OK... I am really upset!!! SORRY FOR THE LONG VENT!
So... I know it is really early to start looking at flowers... but I wanted to start pricing around so I can see how much it would be for what I want, and see how much money it would take up of my budget... and how much money I would have left to spend on other things, ANYWAY
I was so exited... I made my first appt to look at flowers... I made the appt on Wednesday for 8:00 tonight with a highly recommended Wholesale Florist...
So my FH rushes home from work in the city, I pick him up and we rush to the south shore to our appt... and when I show up this is what I get...
I said 'is **** here??? I have an appt with her' and she said 'you have an appt??? i am **** and i don't know of any appts' I said 'well if you are **** then you an appt... I made it with someone on Wednesday' and you know what she said!!!
'Well... I don't have time for you, you will have to come back and you will change your mind by the time you want to order your flowers... so just wait'
I WAS LIKE 'WHAT'! YEAH OK... I MIGHT COME BACK, YEAH RIGHT!!!!
I WAS SO UPSET!!! I MADE MY FH RUSH RUSH RUSH.... TO HURRY UP AND WAIT!
Anyway... I have read on here about the rude lady at this florist was... and now I know they are all true...
Ok... and to her point... I might change my mind... But I don't even know what to change my mind too... If i can't even see what they do!!! WHATEVER!!! (ok... that is really valley!)
Thanks... I fell much better... I am back to a happy place!!!

Re: OK... I am really upset!!! SORRY FOR THE LONG VENT!
she did the SAME thing to my friend. insisted they didn't have an appt although she had confirmed it TWICE
they're not that cheap anyway...about the same as the others i have priced...give your business elsewhere

how rude! IMO, that place is getting 'too big for it's britches' .... so to speak.
ETA: it's not for her to decide how early it is for you to look at florists. if you want to look, then go ahead. that was a stupid comment she made.

The same crap happened to me. I can't wait to tell my Fiance because he thought I lied to him to get him there early. She made it seem like I didn't listen to her. I did not get a big price break. Wholesale my behind

Also, she asks you if your a LI Wedding bride before she allegedly gives you the LI weddings discount. Even my fiance said that she probably jacks up the prices to make up for the 'discount'. They gave one bride a really great price. I would advertise them too if they gave me that price. It's misleading because we go there thinking were going to save money.

I think they are crazy...
I used to work at a florist for 4 years... we would have never turned away a customer like that... especially for a wedding...
I can't go there b/c the owners changed
or I would.

Okay, the name is bleeped out. Can someone FM me the name of the florist? Thanks. Also, sorry that this happened to you. But not to worry because there are plenty of florists that are out there and I'm sure are happy to have your business. You don't have to stand there and take crap from anyone.

That's horrible!!! I would go with another florist. I'm sure there plenty of florists who would treat you as a customer should be treated..Please FM me the florist's name, so I can avoid that situation. Thanks!

That is customer service for you-I would definitely not use them. I would go somewhere else-and like someone said they arent that much cheaper. I did the same thing-so that I could get an approximate amount and the florist I went to was very very flexible with me and had NO problem helping me with prices and what it may cost and even how to save money.

This is so upsetting since I am using them I hope everything turns out okay.

Wow, that totalls *****. I'm sorry. I guess I got lucky because my wedding was beautiful and totally cheap, but I definately agree with the other girls. If you are not happy with customer service I would go elsewhere.

Don't be upset... Maybe she just vibes with some girls better then others... (eventhough she didn't even give me a chance for me to tell her my name)
Who knows, Your flowers will be beautiful... Don't worry... I really heard some good things about them... That's why I made the appt with them.
Good luck

I've heard of this happening with other brides on this board. You don't need that, there are plenty of other florists!

Re: OK... I am really upset!!! SORRY FOR THE LONG VENT!
They are my florist as well, and they were very professional with me every single time, and always kept to my appointments. Mistakes happen, and I'm sorry that you had to go through something like this. However, I do suggest comparative pricing with florists, and going in there again towards the end to see if they can beat those other quotes.
Good Luck

IMO...
I am sure they are good, since others have had such great experiences....
However...there is no excuse whatsoever for their behavior..and the fact that they have done this to several brides here is really unexceptable. You are paying for their services and they should go out of their way to be curtious to you...and if you did not recieve such service you should def. go to someone else!
Even if you were wrong and the apt was confused they still should have been accomodating and not rude!
