    If you use the search function at the bottom of the page and search for the word florist, it should pop up a bunch of old posts related to that.

    HTH!

    Another vote for Jen Cahill.  Used her last November for oldest daughter's wedding and using her again in June for youngest daughter's.  Gorgeous work and very reasonably priced!
    Good luck!

    We're using Winston Flowers in Boston.  Gorgeous arrangements and willing to work within a budget (originally I told them we had a $1000-2000 budget.  The proposal I got back was $950 for the flowers + $250 for taxes/delivery/setup & break down; well within our budget).
    Yay! Finally able to update my signature :)

    Hey Darl,
         I just wanted to throw out there that when you do decide which florist to go with be specific with your flower selections!  I used Jen Cahill at the Tangled Web for my wedding a couple of weeks ago and we were disappointed with the bridesmaid's bouquet's and parent bout's and corsages.  Even after I met with her the night she did my sample and told her what I was looking for the direction was not followed.  She did end making a new cousages for my mother, but obviously she could not make new bridesmaid bouquets.  And she did not have flowers to remake anything for the dads.  Not a huge deal, but not what I ordered.  Her centerpieces and our archway were gorgeous!

    So triple check your florist understands your vision!

    I highly recommend who we used for our wedding, Suzanne Bellanger at Bella Floral Design.  Review in bio under Vendor Reviews, and pics of our actual flowers in there too under Flowers.

    Tami Ried, she is so nice and has gone over everything with me like 100 times, mostly because I have changed my mind 100 times:)

    Hey...i also looked at a lot of florists recommended by Knotties on the board and decided to go with Andrea D'Amelio. Her prices were reasonable and she had great ideas. Definitely worth checking out.

    I really liked our florist.  He was like a mindreader--on the day of the wedding everything looked exactly as I had pictured it.  The business is The Celebrated Flower.  If you google them you can find their phone number.  THey don't have a website, and I don't hear a lot about them on this board.  My venue recommended them though and they did a fabulous job. 

    You can see my flowers in my married bio but the sig link doesn't seem to be working:

    Definitely check with Bowler & Jones in Merrimac, which is on the NShore, not sure where you are located, but he goes all over.  His prices cannot be beat, in my opinion, anyway, especially for what he does.  Hes super sweet, too.  I know I've refered him a few times already, and I think he was booked for most of them, too!  10-10-10 is a REALLY popular date, so hopefully thats not yours.  Good luck!  Phil Bowler, or Bowler and Jones should get you there!
