in New York-Hudson Valley
Hi,

I need help and advise on finding a florist in NJ/NY area, pref. rockland or bergen county. I got priced $4000 with someone and that wasnt even with all tall centerpieces which I am dying to have.

Are those the prices out there or do you knwo of anyone that is very good and reasonable priced???

Thank you very much Laughing

    Carl from Bed of Roses in Yonkers is great. He did an amazing job at my wedding.

    I also used Bed of Roses and had the exact opposite experience.

    He did not follow my wishes at all, and my bouquets had to be re-made by the delivery guy at the hotel the morning of the wedding.

    Just FYI, becuase we always read good things about them, but we had a very negative experience with him.

    We are using Pearl River florists.  Their prices are reasonable and they were great when I went for my consultation.  Conveniently (okay, I planned it) I went in last November to talk with them and the owner was able to show me flowers she was doing for a wedding that weekend.  I loved the centerpiece and bouquets she showed me and booked her right away.  If you want more specific pricing info, PM me.  :)

    My wedding is this Saturday so I can give a better review on Bed of Roses then, but so far I have LOVED working with Carl.

    I recommend Santo's florist in NJ.  I am having approx 20 tall centerpieces plus the bouquets and church flowers for under the price you were quoted.  My venue is in NJ but they are also traveling an hour the day of to bring the bouquets to my house.

    I also have to add my 2 cents in and vote for Danny at Westchester Floral. He did the flowers for my May wedding and he did an amazing job.  The center pieces were twice the size of the trial he did for me.  Plus he's a great guy!

    I'm using Diana Gould florist but I'm working with Enza (super nice) but you can also check out Arcadia who did my co-worker's arrangements and bouquets and they were beautiful.
