Pedestals question

Wondering if anyone has heard of any recent reviews about pedestals. My friend used them this past weekend for her wedding, she was disappointed with the size of the center pieces. She said she paid a lot and the size was really small compared to the sample she had seen. I am getting worried now ???

I'd go w Burtons... Pedestals is overpriced. I priced them and Burtons... they were THREE times the amount Burtons gave me. NUTS... my flowers rocked.

Im using them. There was alot of negative reviews on BHB. I am definitely going to express my concerns to them when I go leave a payment. But I do find it strange that all of a sudden, they are getting all these negative reviews on here.

Thats funny Burtons was only 300 different in price then Pedestals & Im more then confident in them & Vito (he rocks) I would however express your concern to them & tell them why. im sure they will make sure you willl get everything you want!

I booked Pedestals w. Vitto b.c I hadn't heard any complaints, but lately I've been hearing some. I think I'm going to call him to make sure he knows what I want.

yeah luckily all the complaints came after my wedding bc before my wedding i remember thinking how i barely saw any negative reviews about pedestals so didnt have to worry. Although some of the complaints have been weird.

like the one girl who said her sample looked COMPLETELY different than it did on her wedding day. Uhmmmm she posted a pic of her sample and it wasnt even pedestals we all looked at the background and said that it wasnt pedestals shop at all and it was obvious. Another girl posted and said it was flower micheles showroom so it was really weird and confusing. Very fishy to me, unless this girl went to FM for them to do a sample but booked pedestals and forgot the sample she saw was from FM, even that is weird. Plus the girl kept posting about this and answering ppl, but once people pointed out that the pic is not from pedestals she never wrote back and just disappeared from LIW

Re: Pedestals question

i dont mean to make anyone worry but the reason why i didnt go with pedestals is because my FH's cousin had a really bad experience ... the centerpieces were dying during the reception... buttttt my FH's sister used them a month before this cousin and the flowers were awesome!
there are bad and good reviews about every place so its hard to say.

yeah i posted on that thread and was the first one to say that it wasnt the pedestals showroom. and what was more strange is that she did not respond back to any of the questions

Re: Pedestals question

The stand was tilted to the side on our table and the crystals you could hardly see. So I am going to give him a call because he suggested to hang the crystals and I said no but after seeing them I think its better to hang them from the stand because you couldn't see them.

Maybe my flowers were more expensive kinds? Not sure. I do know however they were definitely more money than Burtons. They are even running out of my RH location and still wouldn't budge on pricing. Burtons charges by the amount you get not the flower. Pedestals charges on the flower. I am sure some people were happy with them but this is my experience.

Don't second your choice!! I'm booked with Vito from Pedestals and he is AMAZING! Did he make your sample CP yet? After you see your sample CP, you will be sooo glad you stuck with him. The good reviews definitely outway the bad!!

As far as price... I didn't see a huge different between my quotes from Pedestals and other florists. It all depends on your flower choice... I am paying $2800 TOTAL and I'm getting sooo much for my money! If you give them your budget, they will definitely give you different options to help you stick to it!

HTH!

Re: Pedestals question

I meet with them a couple of weeks ago and they were great. They actually showed me Boks and centerpieces to show the size I was interested in and we discussed how many flowers would be in each center piece etc. I did not think the quote was high at all and I am anticipating having 20 centerpieces.
