Martha's Wedding: Budget $500
Table Setting I did -> 20
Fountain with flowers-> was at the very entrance (extra bouquets)
Centerpieces-> Had 1 stargazers and 2 pink roses and greenerys- which I thought was enough for $500 Budget.
Vases-> I let her borrow my Eiffel Tower vases (those alone were $8 each) -> no extra charge
Falling over ? yes because it was very windy. I was there helping the family to make sure we put weight on them to prevent them from falling.
Cake lady dropped her cake in her car-> helped her fix her wedding cake and gave her some of my silk pink roses for decoration to cover the messy part. I think for the $500 Budget you got a very good deal. I was there to set up, even put table clothes on your tables, I am sorry that I was not appreciated :(

I was very happy with my wedding flowers. My budget was very small and I did not expect much but Joanne delivered beautiful flowers. I really thought that for my budget I would not be able to afford floral centerpieces but she made very nice little arrangements in silver vases with red roses and white flowers and greenery. The bouquets were the perfect size and exactly what I wanted, she also made a nice arrangement for the gazebo and corsages for the mothers and grandmothers. I was a little nervous because I had never actually met Joanne before my wedding, we just e-mailed and spoke on the phone but she definitely did not disappoint. Thanks Joanne!

The first thing i noticed was my bouquet of roses and to me it was SMALL. I thought we had talked and she understood that we needed enough roses because it would be only roses and no greenery. I barely had 20 roses and i wanted around 25-26 to make it fuller. I was extremely dissapointed. Another thing i noticed which i had sent her a picture of was the color of pink i wanted on the roses. The roses were a dark shade of pink compared to the blush pink i had wanted and choosen. I had asked Joanne to show me what my flowers would look like before my big day and all i got was a picture. The flowers were suppose to have greens and roses and some stargazers. On my big day there were no stargazers on the table vases only 1 or 2 roses and some green. The vases kept falling over because of how light and empty they were. Joanne dissapeared which left my family and fianee to deal with the vases. I had also asked for enough roses and she said she would take care of me, but that didnt seem like the case. I had NO decoration on top of the gazebo where i got married, for i am not sure if she forgot or what happened. I did see something in the front gates decorated but there was no decor necessary there because guests could not see that. I was really dissappointed......
I did have to cut down my budget so that meant i could no longer have over a dozen roses on the vases but there should of been more than a couple roses for the money i paid. To top it all off my roses were a bit dried out and burned out on the ends. it seemed they were not refrigerated or left out.. They were like that when she arrived at 2pm in the afternoon.
Joanne was not very professional for she left me a message early that her phone was dying. I tried to reach her for the ringbearers flowers and regarding the table decor but she did not respond. Ever!!!! She left some left over flowers on the fountain but it was too late by the time they were discovered. I did feel like i was let down because she was highly recommended by a really good friend. I always felt like she was not being straight forward with me about what i was going to get and what she was giving me..
