pedestals vs. PWP vs. Burton's

Hi ladies,

After much research I think I have finally narrowed down my top three florists. Although i absolutely LOVED Verbena, I just can't see myself spending $3,300 for 12 centerpieces.

So the problem i am having is that I like the below florists but would love to hear feedback from clients who have used them. I have also included some tidbits regarding my experiences/ concerns of each.

Pedestals- Loved them and really felt like they understood my vision. The priciest of the three but still within budget.

PWP- didn't see anything in their album that i liked but Rich seemed like he understood the whole 'wildflower, vintage' feel I am going for. He also seemed like he would be a great vendor to work with.

Burton's- definitely beat any flower quote I have received thus far. This is pretty much the same situation as PWP. They seemed like they are able to create any look i asked of them though.

Does anyone have any feedback on the three?? Pics of flowers??

Sure i would like to save money on things but flowers for me are personally pretty important so aesthetic is top notch. I just don't want to go with the cheapest just bc they offered a good deal.

In my dream of dreams, my ideal florist would be Saipau but they only deliver to Brooklyn and the city :( now, i keep second guessing every florist i meet.


ughh....thankfully i still have time

We had Burtons, there might be pics in my album or I can give you the PW for my professional pics if you want to look there. We were happy.

Pedestals is great. If you go somewhere and get a lower quote. You let them know and they will meet you on that quote.

Everyone I know has used Burton's & loved them. I wanna say at least 6 people. Pics in my album of FSIL's wedding & my friend Theresa's from December.

I think you need to go with the florist shose aesthetic you like. One of the florists on VHB gave me good advice on this..would you hire a photographer whose previous albums you didn't like and then tell him 'I want you to take pics a different way' and trust it's going to come out the way you want?

I went with pedestals, all I had to do was tell her my theme and they just totally took over. very happy with everything they are doing.

We're using Pedestals....I've heard only but good things about them. My sister used them for her wedding years ago and everything looked beautiful. There's a pic in my album of what I'm basically having (huge tree/branch with votive candles and crystals hanging and bright pink orchids ont them and flowers at the base).

Good luck!!
