Florist

So here's  the situation.... I have met with three florist.

1. I really didn't like
2. I liked but was not wowed
3. I loved but was partially (do it yourself (which i'm ok with)) and doesn't include delivery and is not much cheaper than the others

I want to meet wtih another florist if nothing else as a comparison, anyone have any ideas?

oh I have met with connels, flowerman and a local florist out of her house!

    Flowers on Springtree Lane! I don't know if this is the one you met that does flowers out of her house, but FOSL is 2 ladies (mother-daughter) that do flowers out of their house.  They are VERY reasonably priced (I met with 6 florists, and they were by far the cheapest).  They are really nice and have lots of great ideas, and they also deliver!

    Elegant Touch Events, Inc.

    We just met with her (Lora) this past Saturday and LOVE her! She was recommended by our planner, who has worked with her in the past. She really seemed to know the business well and was very professional.

    I second Flowers on Springtree Lane. They were by far the best pricing that I saw.

    I third Flowers on Springtree Lane.  They have done a great job helping me figure out the right flowers to match the look of my wedding (which was soooo helpful, because I know nothing about flowers).  I highly recommend them!

    Good luck

    I had a great meeting with Heather from Bloomtastic in Upper Arlington.  She was very organized  and reasonably priced.  I booked with her.  I am pretty confident she will do a good job.  I also found a lot of good  reviews and loved the pictures I saw of her work.
    Good Luck!

    Fourth FOSL.  Super nice ladies and IMO reasonably priced.  They were cheaper than all of the quotes that I received.

    I am going to use Rose Bredl. Mary is the owner and their site is http://www.rosebredl.com/contact.html . One of my friends used this company and said it was the only company and owner that did not go over her budget but stayed right where she wanted.

    I hope this helps!

    I know FOSL is popular on this board, but we went with Hilliard Floral.  She really impressed me with the ideas she came up with and they have TONS of vases in many different styles and materials.  We even talked about letting some family members take home the flowers so they didn't go to waste.  We are using a large bowl which she will have a smaller bowl inside for them to remove after the reception and take home!  I loved the idea and then our beautiful flowers can be looked at for another week instead of being thrown in the trash.

    I second Bloomtastic in Upper Arlington!!!  I have even used them for work events before. They were great and had prices for any budget.

    We're using Flowers on Orchard Lane (FOOL).  They seem so nice and have what I need as far as rentals for my outdoor ceremony.  They were so enthusiastic with the picture of the bouquet I brought in and genuinely seemed excited to make my vision happen.  They did "wow" me because they really listened and were professional.  Prices were just average though.  I think they book fast though.  
    I've also heard good things about the Daisy Basket and Petals & Leaves.  
    I did call Flowers on Springtree Lane (FOSL), but they had a couple events booked on my day and didn't want to overextend themselves, so they told me they would discuss it and call me back.  I appreciated their courtesy on the phone, and the fact that they called me back promptly on a Monday holiday to tell me that it wouldn't be possible after we had talked late on a Saturday.  They were really nice.
