A huge value if you plan to DIY. My wedding theme was tropical and the flowers were just beautiful. You can go wrong with this wholesaler. They find what you want for such a reasonable price.

I cannot stress how wonderful my experience was with Carlstedt’s! From the very beginning, we knew we wanted to create the floral arrangements and bouquets ourselves. Not only did we save money, we were able to get exactly what we wanted and have that special feeling knowing we did them. Bobbi was our sales rep and she wins the customer service award! I had done quite a bit of research on in-season flowers, so when we went I had ideas of what we would like to do and Bobbi was able to work with me to figure out colors and what they would be able to get in. One issue had come up about peonies and Bobbi contacted me right away to let me know what was going on as well as alternatives. In the end, they got the peonies in and they were lovely. We picked the flowers up two days before the wedding as Bobbi had suggested and everything was boxed gently. The wonderful part was that everything was open by the day of the wedding!! Our house smelled like a flower shop, and all our flowers looked stunning in the bouquets and as part of the reception décor.
Between the selection of flowers and wonderful help of Bobbi, I would do it all over again! That being said, if you do not have a good base of people to help you or a crafty bone, DIY flowers may not be as easy as you think. But if you’re looking for stunning flowers, Carlstedt’s is fantastic!!

We picked a horrible weekend to get married based on weather that was happening around the country. We had family members around the country that were finding alternate ways to get to the wedding because of snow up north. Unfortunately, our flowers (we ordered in bulk from Sams Club – but they refunded us the full amount and were wonderful) were snowed in in Memphis. My aunt was going to put them together as she is very talented. My fiancé (now husband) and Mom began calling around to local florists the day before the wedding begging for help. These folks took pity on us and really helped us out as much as possible and I’m forever grateful for the amazing flowers they gathered together for us. I was able to have beautiful flowers and they didn’t break the bank! Thank you so much!

Carlstedt's is a wholesaler here in Savannah, we loved their selection. Although a few of the flowers we had picked out for our wedding were not available after we had placed the order, they called me immediately so that I could make the necessary changes to accommodate. They were very helpful when choosing flowers and knowledgeable as well. They will even rent cooler space if you don't have anywhere to put the flowers until your event.

This florist was fabulous. We did our own flower arrangements in their space. The women we worked with were professional, always helpful and just great to work with and be around. Thank you.

Some of these other reviews are shocking!
If you plan on doing a DIY for your wedding florals - Carlstedt's is the place to go!
We were in contact months in advance and Carol was extremely helpful. We exchanged numerous emails and even did a site visit a month prior when we were in town. We got a detailed quote and chatted with the staff for about an hour getting advice on cutting, storage and specific varietals to order.
I only recommend doing DIY florals for your wedding if you have the time and the help. We saved thousands of dollars doing this ourselves but also had the help from family, friends and our event planner. A service that we appreciated was the delivery from Carlstedt's for only $7.99. We purchased 5 gallon buckets prior to the weekend (off of Facebook marketplace) and after they were delivered on Friday morning we cut the flowers we stored them in the buckets overnight to open up for the wedding on Saturday. Everything looked healthy and fresh for the wedding and we even re-used a lot of the flowers for our brunch on Sunday!

We purchased the flowers and did the arrangements ourselves but they were great to work with and had everything we needed on time.

I ordered my wedding flowers from Carlstedt's for our wedding and then made our own centerpieces and bouquets. It was a great way to save some money, and I got a lot of compliments on our flower arrangements. I could not have asked for a better quality or price for our flowers, and I would highly recommend going this route. The only downside to our experience was that the day that I was scheduled to pick up our flowers, I received a call from Carlstedt's letting me know that two of the types of flowers that I had ordered had not come in on the truck. I fully understand that this may not have been the distributor's fault, but the employees were not very apologetic, nor did they offer to do anything to make up for the fact that I was missing two of the main flowers that I ordered. I chose other flowers that they had in stock, and the bouquets still were lovely, just not quite exactly what I had wanted.

They charged me a huge amount for flowers I ordered and when they came in they were the wrong color and they were in such bad condition that I could not use most of them for any of my arrangements. On other times I've ordered, they gave my flowers to someone else even though they told me they had come in. I will not ever use them again for my business!

Be AWARE ! They are only good for a funeral flowers lasting no longer than 24 Hours ! Horrible experience, horrible customer service, corporate office don't care about it. I would buy flowers at Kroger before them. Stay away from this business !!!!!
