Re: Who would you recommend as a florist?
I am in love with my Florist! She is not one of the mainstream florists (therefore does not charge nearly as much). THey are a LIW vendor and did give me 15% off my flowers because I was also a member of LIW. I have changed my flowers 3 times and she has sat with me for over 2 hours each time helping me pick and choose the right flowers.
I went with PERRY'S Florist in Ronkonoma and worked with Carolyn Kelly. She is great!

We used Burton's in Melville for our flowers. I like how they don't charge you for the type of flowers you want, but by what you are getting. We had my bo-k, 4 BM bo-ks, 4 bouts, 6 corsages and 2 huge church arragements and spent just under $500. They wanted about 900 more for 15 CP'c, but we decided to do our own. I would check them out.

We are going with Designs by Rose and I am so happy after seeing what she did for my center pieces. I wasn't happy after the first trial, but then she nailed it when I went the second time. They work with your budget and do beautiful work! It's Rose and Doris and they are located in Howard Beach.http://www.designsbyroseinc.com/

I'm using Flowers by Brian, but I'm not sure if they are a favorite on this site. I've seen many posts that they're too expensive

Flower Michele. LOVE JOHN. He helped me out so much by showing me a million pictures of what I might like. I was with him for an hour and he didn't rush me or nothing. They are very reasonable......He makes appointments 1 hour behind eachother. So you will be one on one with the owner himself. He does a GREAT AND AMAZING JOB!!!!

I used Flower Michele in Mineola- John is a floral genius and I loved working with him (as did DH).
They can work around any budget- I have some of my wedding pics in my album if you want to take a look at what we had for our wedding.

Verbena Designs. She's unbelievable and very reasonable in terms of pricing. Check out my wedding album for pics of my cps/flowers. They were unbelievably gorgeous. She was probably my favorite vendor.

I'm also using flowers by brian. I don't find them expensive. My sister used them 3 years ago, and he gave us the same price. He's great and his work is fabulous.

BURTONS!!! VERY VERY VERY AFFORDABLE! I CANNOT STRESS HOW AFORDABLE they are! I have also been to two weddings where they used Burtons and the quality and beauty is INCREDIBLE for the price!!!!!!!!!
