I meant to write this message MONTHS ago. I have been planning my wedding for a while and it will take place in Sept. I loved this article but wanted to let you know that Pierre's Catering would not work with me on the prices you quoted AT ALL. They rarely returned my phone calls and when i mentioned this article several times they always said they would get back to me and then wouldn't. Don't know how you were quoted the price that was in the article. Its a flat out lie!
We ordered our flowers from Sam's Club.com They were stunning, hydrangeas and gerbera daisies- we had two arrangements per table for 14 tables, arrangements for the head table, cake table, gift table and by the food- and a bouquet ALL for under $120. I got more compliments on my flowers than I ever expected from a Sam's Club purchase
We got our flowers from Trader Joe's the day before our wedding, and ribbon and pins from JoAnne's Fabrics. Total cost - $85. A friend assembled the 4 bouquets, and 16 corsages and boutonnieres for the wedding party, family and ushers.
