Re: Who used or will be using Flower Michele???
John (Flower Michele) was the only florist I met with and I booked him on the spot. I don't know if I could have gotten a better deal elsewhere...I didn't bother to look. I had heard so many great things about John (not one negative review I might add) that I felt my sanity was worth the risk of the extra cost.

Do florist do more than one wedding a day??? I just realized mv1003, who is getting married that same day as me, is using them... now I'm sad
But Michelle, if you're reading this, I'm glad you got them!!! You're flowers will be BEAUTIFUL!!

Re: Who used or will be using Flower Michele???
I just called them and made a appointment. I John wasnt in yet and i asked them about how many weddings they do a day and they said they book up at 5 per weekend, they can easily do more than 1 in a day, but wont de more than 2 on a given day for ex : Fri max1 Sat max 2 and Sun max 2, so i want to get in to see them asap and i will keep you informed

Re: Who used or will be using Flower Michele???
Lauren- I think he told me he does 2 or 3 weddings a day in october. So I would call him now. I think I told you this before but he was the 2nd florist ( also went to flowers by brian) I saw and I booked him on the spot ( the only vendor besides JN I did that with). My mom and stepdad went with me and all of us were amazed by him. He really sits down with you and goes into detail about everything before you even book with him. Also he wanted us to go home and think about it first but I said NO I knew I wanted him. And so far i have no regrets or second guessing. I would make a couple of appt. with other florist on the same day (if you can) and then make john your last one. Good Luck Lauren!

Thanks! I actually just made an appointment for next Saturday! I'm so excited! I did go see Pedestals, but they recently annoyed me. So I'm thinking I'm going to go see Flower Michele and book them! I'll keep you ladies posted!

We used John for ou Sept. 01 wedding and we booked him on the spot!!! He was absolutely by far the best vendor I dealt with!!! We booked him on the spot!!! Everything was perfect!!! My brother got married last July and he went straight to John. They didn't book on the spot becasue they thought that they could get a better price...but that didn't happen...besides they said that nobody elses work compared!!! so they went back to him and he worked with them on the price!!!

I have an appoinment for Monday Evening, he's all booked up this weekend, but if there is a cancellation they will call me. I hoped on seeing him this weekend.
I'll keep you posted My flowers are probably the most important thing to me( besides actually getting married ) I have heard so many good things about their work and i'm actually more excited to meet with them than when we booked the reception

Also bring pics of the kind of flowers you want, centerpieces, bouquets, bouts, church decorations etc. He'll have a lot of ideas too, but it helps if he can see what you're looking for as well...

He will ask you about the BM's dresses and the Moms dresses ( if you know it yet) too. I never thought to bring any of that stuff with me. He does have color swatch charts at the store.
