Re: verbena vs. flower michele

Love Flower Michele. He made it so easy for me to decide which flowers I wanted, he never once rushed me. Even if we don't like the samples he is willing to change the whole thing around. With us he gave us more for our money and told us where we could save here and there. HE is AMAZING!

Re: verbena vs. flower michele

i can vouch for Verbena, I think Jen has such creativity. I tried to meet with Flower Michele but the receptionist was so rude to me and not very accomdating when they overbooked themselves. I did not even bother.

Re: verbena vs. flower michele

Verbena.. she's great w/ her prices and she only does one wedding at a time.. and if you do a search on her, all her brides said her flowers were beautiful and it lasted long.. and they're organic as well.. so even better

Re: verbena vs. flower michele

Verbena! We met with both florists and decided to book with Jen. It was one of the best decisions I've made so far. I'm sure if you talk to Jen she would reduce the price or add extras to get the sale. I, personally, like the idea of having a florist focus on one wedding per day.

Re: verbena vs. flower michele

we chose verbena and have absolutely NO regrets...before our wedding day jennifer was a pleasure to work with...but it wasn't until it was closer to the day that i began to truly appreciate her...the week before our wedding we were in constant contact, she had every detail planned, and reassured me every step of the way...she was early dropping of the bouquets and boutonnières the day-of, and everything looked gorgeous when we arrived at WCC..we received so many compliments from people...verbena was nothing short of amazing

I agree next to photography what I thought was going to be very easy was on of the hardest decision picking a florist.

Re: verbena vs. flower michele

I had looked into both and ultimately chose Verbena. My flowers on my wedding day were incredible. Jen is so creative and understood my vision perfectly. Jen was there on the day of my wedding which is certainly reassuring. In addition she only does one wedding per day. Look in my album to see my flowers.

Re: verbena vs. flower michele

I would go with Verbena. There have been a couple of bad reviews of Flower Michelle lately and I haven't seen one bad review of Verbena yet!

Re: verbena vs. flower michele

I met with both, nothing against flower michele, I thought john was very nice, but verbena was much cheaper. I met with jen today to view my sample cp and she did an awesome job, we're really glad we went with her. Check out my album if you'd like to see, it's under sample cp.

I simply love Flower Michele- I had booked John for my wedding and it was the best decision that I ever made... literally.

The day of our wedding our flowers were perfect- I have pics in my review and my album as well of everything.

John was great to work with- he knew exactly what I wanted and also worked within a set budget as well. I should say he can work with ANY budget no matter how small or big it is.
