I never said Jackie was not talented, and I wasn't complaining about the cost. Clearly I was ok with both those things, otherwise I wouldn't have hired her. What I'm addressing is the fact that the flowers at my wedding ceremony were not the colors we agreed on. I don't consider that to be an outrageous or unrealistic expectation of a florist. I had my photographer even send Jackie photos showing the mismatched colors, and she has yet to tell me that I was mistaken. I gave her 3 stars instead of 0 because the reception flowers were right. The colors were exactly what we discussed, and they turned out beautifully. In my opinion, that's fair because the reception accounted for about half the flowers. This site is a board for people to comment about their personal experiences, in hopes of helping other people learn from mistakes or learn about something that was wonderful. I gave my honest opinion about what happened, and unless you were at my wedding and have photos that show the flowers did match, then my opinion stands. And, I'd love to have those pictures.

L.D.
This review seems very out of context to Jackie's design capabilities. She is extremely talented and has a great sense of integrity. She is very frank about costs in regards to how much can be done. Clearly Jackie has an eye for style and beauty. Her reviews are wonderful. It is true one designer/artist cannot please everyone but perhaps you had expectations that were not cost effective and or realistic. Brides want a lot for very little. And most people are unaware of how much work and detail goes into designing this very important aspect of a wedding. I know this to be a fact because my husband and I designed our own wedding to save on costs. And Jackie designed all of our bouquets, boutonnieres, and special floral wrist bracelets. They were BEAUTIFUL! And they were worth every penny! Jackie's talent is worth it. She is very reasonable considering how much work she does. I think she should raise her prices and weed out those who are unappreciative.

annonumous.
I just don't believe that you could write a review that isn't even true. She is absolutely a wonderful florist and has every attention to make sure your day is the most perfect and everything that you wanted. She puts her heart and soul into every single thing she does.

Rosebud Cakes and Cory made our wedding cake dream come true! We wanted a traditional yet dramatic Chinese design of a dragon and phoenix on our cake. We went to one cake-maker who literally laughed at us. At Rosebud, Cory was instantly intrigued and ended up creating a masterpiece. Plus, it was delicious! We got so many phenomenal comments about the cake. I've already recommended Rosebud to someone who was just as happy, and I would recommend them again, in a heartbeat.
