Do a search on Stefan's on here and also on theknot.com. I've read some negative things about them, they also have some complaints against them on the Better Business Bureau website.

Do a search on all of them . Check the BBB too.

I don't know most of them but I would probably look elsewhere - do a search - there are many commonly used inexpensive florists that brides had awesome experiences with on this sight- none of which you listed

Re: Stefans, Dalsimers or Jack and Rose Florists??
I am using Jack & rose and I couldn't be happier. I am paying $3500 and they do only one wedding per day. I met with the owner I think and he is so creative and willing to work with anything you want. I don't like white pows on pews and he totally came up with an idea there on the spot. For $3500 I am getting the following:
20 CP (2 free if needed--don't know how many I will need 20 or 22) cake table main table bouquets (4BM, 2 MOH) throw away bouquet all GM bouts all parents corsages about 6 other corsages
and I am sure there is stuff i am leaving out. I spent 2 hours with him and could have spent 2 more but i had to go to work. He is wonderful. I would at least make an appt. I booked him on the spot and looked at 2 other florists besides them.

I'm using Dalsimers, and couldn't be happier with them....I haven't seen my sample yet, but have seen their work at other weddings and their flowers are amazing!!! The level of customer service is amazing, I'm dealing with the owner, and he is the nicest most down to earth man ever.....so I highly recommend them

I just had a really bad experience with Stefans, although others have loved them. Feel free to FM me for more info.

I didn't use any of these myself, but a friend of mine used Dalsimers. Her venue only gave her 3 choices and she went with them. They were pretty pricey and she wasn't that happy with the results.

Yikes I was supposed to go to Dalsimers, heard they were great. Hope they aren't that pricey because I can't afford pricey!!

I would keep shopping.
There are many florists on this site that get consistent top notch reviews from brides. They listen to thsir brides, are very creative and VERY reasonably priced.
Burton's- never met with them, they weren't available for my day
LA Blossom- Laurie is great, very creative and her prices are great, consistently gets great reviews on this board.
Trina from Expressions- she comes to you and I booked her, also terrific prices.
I've also heard great things about Pedestals.
Best to check the reviews of the Bride's REview board. Last summer when I was booking vendors I read every review and got the list of vendors that way.

We used Jack & Rose for our wedding last year and we were thrilled with the flowers and with Jack. His prices are great, and he's incredibly creative!
meet with different florists though, because it's a really personal preference

I would look into Flower Michele for a price.

Keep looking.
Why don't you check out Laurie from LA Blossom? And, check the BBB. Stay away from anyone who has ANY complaints. A GOOD vendor will do what it takes to make ALL of the customers happy and not have any complaints.

Despite soem great reviews on this site, I've heard really bad things about Jack and Rose from people in the wedding industry... and I trusted their opinion, so...

I used Jack and Rose for my wedding and while my flowers were 'decent', they certainly do not do one wedding a day regardless of what they tell you. A girl on this board fm'd me that she was using them and we had the same wedding date. Also, don't buy into the we make your flowers the morning of either. Go there on a Thursday night and you will see many bridal bo-k's and other flowers packaged and ready to go for Friday weddings.

Re: Stefans, Dalsimers or Jack and Rose Florists??
i met with the owner of stefan's (chris stefan) after seeing the beautiful job he did at a relatives wedding --this relative spent $20,000+ on flowers...
i was completely annoyed by chris --i think he has adhd or something --he was all over the place and kept going on and on about how he doesn't need to work and how most of the jobs he does are 'city' jobs that cost $100,000 and up...he was so arrogant --i couldn't stand it...well, after i left --i had no intention of booking him --i booked someone else but chris stefan has called me about 10 times saying that he would love to do my wedding --why would he need to do my wedding when he has all these big jobs that he does on a regular basis? the guy is full of it!
