It's hard to necessarily pinpoint what exactly is the most essential piece to a wedding, but…read moreperhaps many people might say flowers. I suppose without any floral arrangements, things wouldn't be too festive and so you have to find just the right flowers that'll do. My advice? Try Flowers By Burton because they'll give you anything you want. I mean that's basically how it works. You pay a certain price and FBB will help to create the exact floral concoction that you desire. For us, our wedding was happening in the fall and we had our specific colors that we were using (steel and navy blue with maroon highlights). Burton was able to meet with us and discuss different ideas and flower types we might want to use. Mike is who we initially met with and he was super chill and helpful. He had a great knowledge of flowers and wedding items (bouquets, etc.) which helped make the process that much easier. What was also great was how easy it was for Burton to create centerpieces that worked with the lanterns we wanted to use. They were able to build a nice ring of flowers around the lantern that kept the centerpiece compact yet still elegant. I'll also give them some props for helping to differentiate my boutonnière from the rest of my groomsmen as that was the only way to tell the difference between us (my white flowers and their maroon). Oh and everything was delivered right on time which is extremely essential when trying to get a wedding orchestrated. Overall, I have nothing negative to say about Flowers By Burton. They've been around for a long time and for good reason. Their prices are respectable and they'll work with you to find exactly what you want. So if you're looking to fill arguably one of the most important parts of your wedding, then go to Flowers By Burton and smell the roses (just a saying).

I was a little behind on booking a florist for my wedding, so I immediately chose Flowers by Burton…read morewhen I saw that they were responsive, a little bit more affordable than some others, and most importantly: promised me tulips for my bouquets in June when quite a number of florists were hesitant to. I love how they talked to me on the phone and discussed what I wanted, including the inspiration photos that I sent them. Then, we had another meeting in person to go over my flower choices. On the week of my wedding, they also sent me pictures of the tall centerpiece and bridal bouquet and made adjustments based on my feedback. I understand that they didn't want to make them so early in advance of the wedding but it would've been better if they sent the pictures earlier because a bride has a lot of last minute tasks to do before the wedding and checking emails for photos should not be another item on their to-do list. I wish they also sent pictures of the other arrangements that I ordered because I wasn't too fond of the wrist corsage for the moms. They were very loose and the flowers were too big. In most of the wedding pictures, the flowers were sitting on the side of the wrist because the corsage was so loose and the heaviness of the flowers made them fall.. The centerpieces bouquets looked beautiful though. My only complaint is that my bridal bouquet was so thick in the stems that it was hard to hold with just one hand. But I guess tulips have thicker stalks so it's a tulip problem, and it's not super noticeable in pictures. It was very nice of them to include a small bouquet for me to throw. I love how the arrangements were the same price no matter which flowers I wanted and that the boutonnieres were free of charge. I was considering pocket boutonnieres instead but they were $25 each iirc. I have to say that my favorite arrangements were the ones on the floor in front of the sweetheart table. They're exactly how I imagined them to be, and they turned out sooo perfectly. They did such a phenomenal job delivering and setting up all the flowers too! Their office is very small so there might be other customers in close proximity when you're there but I didn't think it was an issue at all. Parking is aplenty.
