Has anyone ever used Sam's Club or Costco Wedding flowers?

paulandjill

My wedding next Spring falls on Mother's Day weekend & almost every flower shop we've called will not do wedding flowers for us due to the "high volume."  I am considering using Sam's Club, and ordering the flowers online from their website, then assembling them myself.  I am desperate at this point & I don't mind the extra work.  Could anyone who has used Sam's Club or Costco flowers share their experience with me! My mom is not on board, but I am trying to keep an open mind! If anyone has pictures of flowers from those vendors could you possibly post them?  In fact, if anyone has used any online florist for their wedding could you please share your experience & vendor!!
Thanks!
Jill, VA

A girl on my local used Sam's.  She just did simple arrangements using white roses and they were very pretty.

Do you have a Costco or Sam's Club membership? If so go to the local store, our Costco has a local florist that actually arranges the flowers for their kiosk. I got her phone number from the customer service desk. I called her and she recommended I call about 2-3 weeks before the wedding and she'll arrange to have whatever flowers I want available for pick up. No extra charge for this, and since they charge $15 or so for 2 dozen roses, I"m using them.

I'm also going to order the bridal package of white roses from their website. The reviews show that the customers have been pretty happy, and if not, Costco was quick to fix any problems. They are also pretty easy to work with, adjusting the count of the bouquets, corsages and bouts if you don't need for example centerpieces, which is the case with us.

The Costco Flowers were awesome!   I did the white roses and the roses came packaged nicely, with all thorns and stems removed and all the tools needed to put bouquets together.  My MOH and I put them all together in about 3 hours, including boutineres (?sp) on Thurs and they kept beautifully through Sunday when I brought them home.  Highly recommend
