Florist

Does any one have a recommendation for a florist in the nothern new jersey area? I am looking for someone talented but reasonably priced...I have seen a couple people post good things about Manny at Santos in Newark....any other suggestions? This is the one area where I feel hlepless as I am not one who goes particularly ga-ga over flowers...Thanks!

    Try Stephanie from Floral Expressions in Hasbrouck Heights.  She is wonderful to work with.  She works out of her home and only does weddings.  And her prices were the cheapest of all the florists I met with.

    I also recommend Avenue Florist in Elizabeth. I gave them a budget and they stayed under it...and my budget was quite low.

    I used Oscar from Avenue and love him. Stayed right on budget and walked me through some other options when I had a flower moment and decided I didn't want my original bouquet after placing our original order.

    I just booked with Denise at Joseph's Florists in Jersey City. I have a fairly small budget and she's been really great to work with so far.

    I just got back from my HM so havent posted my reviews yet...but I just have to RAVE about Adam from AW Flowers! Not only were his prices the best of any florist I met with (by almost 2k) but the flowers were AMAZING! The church, bouquets, centerpieces, cake flowers, everything was perfect and exactly as I imagined it. I have pics if you want to see them- they were terrific I highly recommend!

    Amazing centerpieces

    I also suggest Stephanie with SK Floral Expressions in Hasbrouck Heights! Definitely the most reasonable prices I've seen in the area and she is SO sweet and wonderful to work with! Seems like she completely understands what I want! Good luck!
