Re: Why is Flower Michelle so great?
Well I booked them as well. Aside from having read all of their rave reviews I had to see them for myself.#1- John truly loves what he does, and just because he's a genius at it, he doesn't charge you an arm and a leg.
#2- He has great ideas, that are thought of spontaneously, and each idea is unique according to your taste and style.
#3- He is genuinely honest,compassionate, and respectful of your budget and needs, and tries to give you the best for your money. And 99% of the time, always giving you what you want!! Not to mention he's funny, and his smile will light up a room.
These are all reason enough to book Flower Michelle.Go for it!!!!!!

Re: Why is Flower Michelle so great?
John absolutely loves flowers and what he does. he put me and my mother at ease knowing that he will do a perfect job. I went into him with no clue of what I wanted and by the end of our session I had everythin picked out and planned and a beautiful vision of what my flowers will look like! Plus, since my wedding is June 07, he is giving me a sample CP June this year so I can see what it will exactly look like with the same flowers from the same regions he will get them from for my wedding. What can I say, I love him and he is the best!!

Re: Why is Flower Michelle so great?
Yea I agree with the above posts. EVERYTHING you read about him is so true!!! The thing that amazed me is that I knew exactly what I wanted for my Bo-K and my BM's Bo-k's but for my centerpieces I was a little iffy- John pulled out his book of flowers- we went through the list of possible pink flowers and we chose that way. My mom was stunned with the variety of pink flowers John presented to us.Also in the wedding business there is alot of vendors who will cheat you for your money and John doesnt. Its hard to find people like that especially when you mention the word 'wedding'. He sincere and genuine about his job and he loves his LIW girls!!!

Re: Why is Flower Michelle so great?
Thanks girls!We REALLLY want to keep our budget low for the flowers...
I see that Flower Michelle is reasonable.... how do their prices compare to other florists you looked at?

Re: Why is Flower Michelle so great?
Flower Michele is comparable to other florists in the area. If you let John know what your budget is, he'll work with you. I trust John and that puts me at ease.

Re: Why is Flower Michelle so great?
Lets say you have a budget of 1k. Alot of places say, well..for that amount, you can only have roses(because they are the cheapest, depending what kind of course). John would put something together with a flower you choose, so long as your happy with it. To him it's all about making you happy, and and the happiest on your day!!!Besides, I don't think theres any comparrison to John.

Thanks, this helps alot!
I have alot to learn about flowers (because I didn't realize something as nice as ROSES are the least expensive)
But this helps, because working within budget is VERY important to me!
thanks girls!

I saw all the threads, but I thought this would condense it and be a great way to ask the FM brides why they booked Flower Michelle!

Re: Why is Flower Michelle so great?
I just booked with him.....and i felt that he really listened to me and what i wanted and then asked me what type of budget i was working with. He was great and really fit with my budget....unlike some other places i went to.

Did you ever go back to John and tell him what you were looking for and what other florists quoted you?
IMO you can not compare his quality and work.
Ladies I cannot add anything else about John here that hasnt already been said. His personality alone makes you not even worry about how your flowers will come out the big day.

Re: Why is Flower Michelle so great?
Flower Michele has excellent reviews on this site from past brides.John is such a nice person and easy to talk to, he does not talk over your head like I have experienced with some florists, he listens to your vision and works with you to help you expand.
As far as price he is very reasonable and works within your price range....he will not turn you away if you only have a certain budget he would make it work
and for me his PERSONALITY just does it...John Rocks
