I am using Pedestals I am working with Vikki - they had some amazing suggestions were very nice to work with. I am excited about how my flowers are going to look,

I did not have a good experience with FbB I would not recommend them

I LOVED FLOWERS BY BRIAN!!! I saw them last sat. Cindy helped me and she was sooo helpful. I am going to see a couple more but i think my mind is already made up.

I am going to use Pedestals. If you need some advice call Joe in the Jericho Location he is AMAZING. You will love him.

I don't know much about Pedestals. I do know that quite a few people have warned me about Brian. Apparently he overcharges sometimes, or he will say he couldn't get the flowers you wanted so he substitutes without asking you first. Or stuff doesn't come out the way it's supposed to. Maybe these are just a few isolated incidents, but just thought I'd pass the warning along. We are using Flower Barn in Syosset, if you are interested. Great prices, and really professional and nice during our consultation. Lots of great ideas. Good luck.

I went to Flowers By Brian first and they did not offer me they did not offer me much for my price range and they said I could only get roses with no other flowers. I went to Pedestals right after because I went to check them out and booked them on the spot. Natalie gave me a heck of a deal and actual choices for what I wanted to spend. So, obviously I'd recommend Pedestals.
