Re: Pedestals Drama
I have been hearing some negative feedback about them lately. I am not sure what is going on with them! They used to have a great reputation. I am sure if you voice your concerns to them they will be great on your day!!!

Don't worry- still use them. I know they do beautiful work as I have been to a few weddings and seen their CP's. Just tell them your concerns and I am sure they will be fantastic.

Re: Pedestals Drama
just because they arent using them as a preffered vendor doesnt mean that you cant use them. As long as they are insured you can you whoever you want

Re: Pedestals Drama
my guess is that they are not a prefferred vendor b/c they didn't pay the preferred vendor fee of someone's friend owns another flower shop - honestly, i checked out a few of my hall's upscale reccommended vendors and i liked people they did not reccomend better so i booked them. don't let your halls suggestions limit you - people reccomnded based on fees and kickbacks in thsi industry!

also - if you are that worried - call your BM and ask for an explanation.

Re: Pedestals Drama
All it means is they are no longer a preferred vendor doesn't mean you can't use them. To be honest I didn't use any of their preferred vendors.
Be careful. Alot of places are only 'reccomended' if they pay a fee or give them a kickback... So if pedastals decided to not, that may be the problem...

Re: Pedestals Drama
Don't worry. They do do beautiful work. The RH probably dropped them from there vender list bec ause they wanted them to pay more money. Maybe pedestals did not want to pay extra money to your RH to keep them on as a vendor. Don't worry. I sure your flowers will be beautiful-just stay on them and call constantly before the wedding.

I'm booked with Pedestals and I havent heard anything bad about them. We loved Vito. My friend just used them in June and LOVED them

Re: Pedestals Drama
no more FMs everyone!
in short, they do beautiful work but just follow up a lot, because they initially brought totally wrong flowers to my ceremony. luckily they were able to fix it in time and my flowers were beautiful
