Weddingbee boards

Hi All -

Hoping the wonderful bunch at the Bee can help me out!

We are planning our September wedding in Poughkeepsie, NY. Though we originally planned to have DIY flowers via the gorgeous silk flowers options available out there ... we are now considering a different route and really need a handful of great florists to check out. As with most brides, competitive pricing is very important as we do not want to spend an arm/leg for flowers. We do however want beautiful, classic, fresh [fresh!] pieces - along with excellect service. [And yes, we do believe in this vast wedding industry, great service and products ARE indeed available at great prices!]

Please HELP. Would really appreciate any suggestions on vendors. In particular, if you have experienced great things with them firsthand. Of course, if there are horror stories, please DO share as well - so we can steer clear!

Thank you!!
