Hi. I am beginning to narrow down options for florists for my June 2010 wedding and am a little overwhelmed. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have done a little research and heard good things about Addison Ashland, Fleur, Stems, and Flora. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks ladies!

    I used Fleur and loved Kelly Marie...she did an amazing job...i didn't really know what i wanted and changed my mind a million times. She'll do a mock up for you beforehand which was really helpful.

    Debbie Donovan did an excellent job on my flowers and was VERY budget friendly!  She was my favorite and most surprising vendor i used for my wedding, given the budget!   Her email is deborah_donovan@hotmail.comHere are some of my pictures of my flowers  http://www.karatography.com/2009/10/cancer-survivors-garden-wedding-photographer-jen-scott/

    I'm considering Stems for my wedding as well! I've heard amazing things about them.

    I used Flora and absolutely loved them.  We worked with Randy, who was fantastic.

    I literally jumped for joy when I saw my flowers from Scarlet Petal. They couldn't have been better.

    I also worked with Scarlet Petal (Jenny) and they were fantastic. Throughout the whole process Jenny was responsive, gave great suggestions and really took my vision and made it better. We gave her a lot of creative freedom and she did not disappoint. I had spoken with Stems in the process and was a little put off by the additude of the person I spoke with (can't remember who) - they also came in quite a bit higher than Scarlet Petal.

    i used Stems for my wedding and honestly - they took my breath away!!!! Better than i could have ever imagined. My friend is a manager there, and i'm not sure if she went "above and beyond" for my wedding, or if it's how they do every wedding, but i couldn't have been happier. email me for photos if you'd like marcilehnert at hotmail dot com
