Joseph you are amazing!

I honestly cannot say enough good things about Pedestals Floral Decorators, especially Joseph and his team!

I reached out with a pretty last-minute timeline, and they were incredibly accommodating from day one. The entire process was easy, stress-free, and even the payment arrangements were simple and straightforward.

From our very first conversation, Joseph was so easy and fun to work with. He completely understood the vision I had for my wedding and somehow brought it to life even better than I imagined. When I walked into the venue, I was absolutely speechless. Every arrangement, every detail, every flower was PERFECT.

What meant the most was that Joseph personally came to the venue on the wedding day to help set everything up. Knowing he was there making sure every detail was just right gave me so much peace of mind. He truly went above and beyond.

I received SO many compliments on the flowers all night long. Guests kept stopping me to tell me how beautiful everything looked. But the biggest compliment came from my mom—who is quite literally the pickiest person I know when it comes to flowers and décor. If you know her, you know that's saying something! Even she couldn't stop talking about how stunning everything was.

My wedding looked like something straight out of a dream, and it's all because of Joseph's talent, creativity, and dedication. I found myself staring at the flowers all night because they were somehow even more beautiful than I had imagined.

If you're looking for a florist who genuinely cares, listens to your ideas, and delivers absolute magic, Joseph is your person. Thank you for making my dream wedding actually look like my dream wedding! ❤️🌸✨

Beyond what was expected

I can’t put into words the magical night Pedestals created for my daughter’s wedding. The flowers were spectacular. Everything went seamlessly and exceeded my expectations. Sandy was phenomenal to work with and had great vision and ideas. We were able to create exactly what we wanted within our budget. I can’t recommend them enough.

Flawless Floral Design and Exceptional Service

From the moment we met with Joseph, we knew we were in exceptional hands. He listened closely to our ideas, understood our vision immediately, and offered thoughtful, practical suggestions that helped bring everything to life even more beautifully than we imagined. We were blown away by how seamlessly every detail came together, and even a couple of florists in attendance commented on how stunning the arrangements were.

On the day of the ceremony, the Pedestals team executed everything flawlessly. They set up each element with care, made sure every detail met our standards, and checked in afterward to ensure we were completely happy. Their professionalism, artistry, and calm presence made such a difference.

A huge thank you to Joseph and the entire Pedestals team for bringing our vision to life so beautifully.

Working with Robert is a Dream Come True!

My husband and I got married in October 2024, and we had an absolutely amazing experience with Robert Hertzog at Pedestals. Our venue limited our florist to one of four vendors, and Pedestals was the clear winner (from both prior brides and our own vendor shopping experience). Robert was so easy to work with, completely understood my vision, has a creative and unique eye, gave us so much value our money, and provided lots of great advice (i.e. Do we actually need flowers on the staircase banister? No. Should we do a combination of high and low centerpieces? Yes. Can we repurpose my bouquet or the chuppah or a centerpiece to give it dual functionality? Yes, yes, and yes). Our chuppah was even more beautiful than I imagined it would be. I loved our entry table, which was made up of deconstructed components of the centerpieces. I did need to be pretty firm on wanting blue flowers in my bouquet vs. Robert suggested I just have white roses, but Robert ultimately deferred to me. Pedestals was also so great at setting up the event and moving the floral arrangements around the venue, as we had both the ceremony and reception in the main ballroom, and the room needed to be turned over during cocktail hour (we didn’t even see them). We would work with Robert and Pedestals again in a heartbeat—truly wouldn’t even consider another florist!

Pedestals went above and beyond!

We are so pleased with how perfect our flowers came out, and we couldn’t be happier! Our vision was different than what Pedestals is known for creating – a more wildflower, organic look. They went out of their comfort zone to ensure our vision came to life, and we are so grateful. Robert went above and beyond, even doing a second sample for us to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. Everything turned out beautiful day of and even better than we could have expected. Thank you Robert and Pedestals!!

The most beautiful evening!

I truly cannot recommend pedestals and Robert more! Robert understood everything I wanted and my exact vision for my wedding from our first meeting and he was an absolute pleasure to work with the entire time. I cannot say enough nice things about him! My chuppah came out beautiful, the room looked amazing and the bouquets were perfect. He went above and beyond for me and I would recommend him and pedestals to anyone for any event! I wish I had another event to plan so I could use him again!

Dream Wedding Decor!! 10/10 Recommend

Phil at Pedestals was a DREAM to work with. I had a very specific vision in mind, and not only did he nail it, but he really helped shape the vision. He was great at listening but also providing suggestions and new ideas. He's an expert at florals, but also lighting, decor, table scapes and more. He really made the entire come to life that night, and I can honestly say that walking into my wedding venue felt like a dream come true. Thank you Phil!! Would recommend 10/10 times.

Executed my vision!!

I worked with Robert for my wedding in September. He executed my vision PERFECTLY and was somehow able to stay in my budget! He worked with me very closely to figure out exactly what I wanted (I had a very specific vision and he made sure he completely understood it). He puts his heart and soul into his work and it shows. I have never seen a more beautiful chuppah or centerpieces. I was blown away. Thank you for everything Robert!!!
