I am a Royalton Bride and need to make a decision soon on flowers. Honestly, flowers is the one thing I would rather try to save on so any unput on one florist vs the other is appreciated!!
Thank you

Re: Stephans or Spitz & Peck - Help
My RH's exclusive vendor is Spitz & Peck but because we FMIL had issues with them for her other son's Bar Mitzvah (and another friend wasn't satisfied), we aren't using them (we told them we just were using someone else). That being said, II'd recommend Stefan's. They did two friends's weddings, both were gorgeous and the brides were very happy.

STEFANS is amazing!!! I have known them forever (My dad and FH are wholesale florists and sell to them). They did both my sisters, cousin, FSIL's wedding and they'll be doing mine!!! I have some pictures from my cousin (Lauren and Nick's wedding) and my FSIL's in my albums!!

Re: Stephans or Spitz & Peck - Help
I'm getting married at the Royalton and using Spitz and Peck. They both do amazing work. I told them what I wanted to spend, and they're making it work. Just give them a number and see what they say.

Re: Stephans or Spitz & Peck - Help
Hi!! Congrats fellow Royalton bride!!! I would highly recommend meeting with both florists and then making your decision. That's what we did. We met with Stefan's first, and had an awful experience. We met with Spitz and Peck and had a great experience, and Wade totally got my vision. We worked with Wade out of the Huntington location, and let me say, he knows his stuff. My floral decor was just breathtaking!! Good luck!!

Re: Stephans or Spitz & Peck - Help
my CP sample from Stefan's looked like something really horrible out of the 80s or a funeral parlor. i had to hold back my reaction! my sample from S&P was much better. that being said, i would say that the person who was helping us at Stefans was nicer than the person we are working with at S&P... but in this case, I decided to go w/ design aesthetic over personality. we'll see how it turns out!

Re: Stephans or Spitz & Peck - Help
I would definately recommend going to meet with both florists (they are just up the block from each other so you can do it in one trip). I researched both ALOT when I first got started and there seems to be mixed reviews on both. I think it depends who you get assigned. I personally went with Stefans because I fell in love with the sample they made for me, while Spitz and Peck was not seeing my vision at all. And as it worked out Stefans gave us a lower quote.
I was in love with my flowers at my wedding and very happy with my choice.

Re: Stephans or Spitz & Peck - Help
I had the EXACT experience this weekend with Stefans...It was just awful and totally unprofessional. He had no interest at all on what I wanted..never even asked! Just wrote down a bunch of numbers and said 'dont worry we will take care of it'..waste of time. This weekend is Spitz..hope it goes better :(

Re: Stephans or Spitz & Peck - Help
we did spitz and peck. they did great work on my room decor. if you have any questions or need pointers on some SP things feel free to FM
I went to meet both of them a couple weeks back - and I am leaning towards Stefan's cuz i felt more comfortable with the person who was helping me at Stefan's than S&P.
I made another appointment with Stefans to do a sample centerpiece next month before I decide...
I find it hard to understand the pricing quotes without sample centerpiece... i mean how would i know exactly what quantity/quality of flowers would be included in the quote?!?
Does anyone have any advice on candles? Is anyone planning to/ or has anyone done candles at Royalton on your own without using florist?
