VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
Hey Ladies,
I met with bothe Verbena and Flower Michele....I really like them both and their quotes were comparable......I think I am leaning towards one a little more than the other but I would like to ask you the question......
FLOWER MICHELE or VERBENA????
Share your thoughts good and bad and PLEASE post pics of your bouquets and centerpieces....especially if they are fall themed!!

Re: VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
I booked Flower Michele. John knew exactly what I wanted. I went to other Florists and they did not impress me like John did. I feel confidenent that on my wedding day I will say I made the right choice. It is a hard decision when you have two places you are crazy about. Good luck in whichever one you choose.

Re: VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
Verbena Jen is great and she has awesome ideas. Go to the '09 boards and look at the Veberna Thread we have. You can also look in my album for the sample centerpiece Jen made for me.

Re: VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
I met with both flower michele and verbena, they were both awesome but we ended up going with verbena b/c she was a little cheaper. Jess you're flowers look AWESOME.

Thanks Jess! Its all Jenn though! Your flowers will be amazing too! She completely exceeded my expectations. The flowers all lasted a REALLY long time. I STILL have one of the GM bouts in my fridge from LAST MONTH and it looks PERFECT!
The best thing is that they are ORGANIC!!!

Re: VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
Absolutely Verbena. My flowers were gorgeous too. She was a total pleasure to work with and it was very reassuring to me knowing that she personally would be setting up my flowers and making sure everything was right. Highly, highly recommend. Look in my album to see pics of my cps.

I booked with Flower Michele and my flowers were nothing short of FANTASTIC!
John did impress me and knew exactly what I wanted.
I have photos in my review and also in my albums of his work - I was so in love with all my flowers.

Re: VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
JMO, but I would go with Verbena. Flower Michele has actually gotten a few bad reviews on here lately and that made me nervous.

Re: VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
I LOVE VERBENA!!!! We met with both and Verbena was a better match for us. John was nice, but Jen gave us extra ideas and a better price.
Good Luck!
Both florists are great.

Re: VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
I used Flower Michele for my November wedding, and was very happy with them. John is so creative and enthusiastic - he's a pleasure to work with.

Re: VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
Thanks ladies,
I was leaning a little more towards Verbena....Jenn was just such a doll and she gave me the perfect idea to add on to my centerpiece. There is a picture of it in the album....we knew that we wanted some leaves and rose petals to along with the vases, but she also brought up the idea to use these vines with red and orange berries....it was the perfect addition. Plus, she really puts together a nice proposal and you can tell she takes time to do it. I also loved that she sent me home with a flower.
I think we might book her today!!!! WAHOOOOOO!!! One more thing off the list!

Re: VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
I booked Verbena and she made me an AWESOME sample. I'm having a fall themed wedding too. My cousin used Jenn for her 06 wedding and wouldnt stop raving about her until i booked with her too.

Re: VERBENA or FLOWER MICHELE
I met with both.. and ended up picking Verbena for 2 reasons:
1) Costs a tad less
2) Jennifer is very creative & I believe she'll be able to bring my "fantasy" into reality on my wedding day! haha
