Sadie's Fine Floral Design or Deven Nelson?

NuggetBrain

Anybody used these vendors?  What was the cost for your wedding and what kind of flowers did you have?  I have to stay at $1,000 max and was wondering if it would even be worth it to meet with them, or if that's below their budget.  Thanks!

Meet with Deven Nelson. She was my floral savior

check out 'I Do' Flowers, that's who I'm using and I'm getting absolutely everything including centerpieces for about $800.  And I have six bridesmaids!  She has been amazing to work with.

We are using Deven Nelson. I did not meet with Sadie, but I did meet with many Woodbury florists. Deven was the most helpful when it came to helping me decide what I wanted. She really worked within my budget and it was great to meet at her wholesaler and walk around looking at the different options. Our bill came in a little under $300 and we even have some roses the week before Valentine's day! Other florists were around that price without any roses.

I have 2 BM, 2 GM, 2 FG, 1 ringbearer, 2 mothers, 1 grandmother, 1 usher, me and the groom.

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Sadie! She's very talented, and has really gone out of her way to work with our budget. Aside from that, she a sweetheart. I do recommend meeting with her!

We just met with Deven this weekend and were very impressed!  We have very basic needs for flowers - bouquets, boutenieres, and corsages.  Our quote was around $300 - way below my budget of $500-$1000 that I gave her.  Going to the wholesaler with her was a great way to see all of my options too!

I used Sadie and she will definetly be able to do something in your budget. I went to her, told her budget, and she gave me options from there. I loved her. She has a great studio with a ton of vases, flowers, etc. She can put together options for you to see, you can see the options for vases, and I have only heard good reviews about her. You can see some pics of the flowers she did for my wedding in my bio.

I met with both Alissa from I Do Flowers and Sadie just this last week and Alissa was much cheaper and equally as talented. I think Sadie hires several people to work for her where as Alissa doesn't. I think that helps keeps the cost down. Just my opinion

Well Sadie is booked for my weekend, but I am going to hopefully set up some time to meet with Deven and Alissa at I Do Flowers.  Thank you guys for the recommendations!

I am going with Jeni at Simply Stated Elegance.  I guess she is setup similiar to Devon Nelson.  She brings you to the wholsalers and you actually buy the flowers at wholesale and just pay her to put it together.  Love her!
