This is the place to go for DIY or to have a florist do for you. Emily the consultant is very thorough, she finds out what your budget is what your vision is and works very hard to get you what you want. She even took the time to show me how to put together a flower project I was going to do myself. They have a great selection of flowers and can order what you want. Prices are very reasonable.

DIYing was the best decision ever!

After getting some initial quotes from florists for our wedding, we decided to save a TON of money and do it ourselves. Emily was INCREDIBLY helpful, super responsive, and very easy to work with! We made our initial order several months ahead of time, and then made several adjustments to it, and she was always very flexible and patient. I had watched a ton of youtube videos and done my research, but she still managed to offer some great advice that I hadn't encountered elsewhere. We picked up our flowers 2 days before the wedding, and they were absolutely stunning and perfect! Everything was perfectly in bloom for the wedding day, nothing wilted even a little bit, and two days later our arrangements still look great!

If you're thinking about DIYing your flowers, DEFINITELY check out Wholesale Flower Market and talk to Emily!

Family-owned Gem!
Our wedding was on 11/05/16 and working with Emily was a dream. I had no idea this place existed until my aunt recommended it from her wedding in July. I emailed the place, got a response within 24 hours, scheduled an appointment, and I was impressed.
Emily is capable, honest, and amazing at understanding what you want for your wedding. Our one hour appointment was so productive - we went through at least ten different flowers, colors, and greenery in different mixes. She had different suggestions for look and explained characteristics like texture that make a difference. Since my bridal bouquet was different from my bridesmaids, we took the time to talk about the differences and why. She was very upfront about prices; I never felt pressured to get a more expensive flower, and I never felt like I was sacrificing the look I wanted for a cheaper flower. Your money goes a long way here - a similar boutonniere for example would have roses as compared to carnations at another location.
After that in person appointment, we communicated through phone and email. I had to make some changes to the contract, and it was done efficiently.
The day of, the flowers were picked up at the appointed time and delivered in beautiful vases and wrapped plastic containers. They lasted for a long time, meaning the flowers were ordered and created close to the day of instead of being in the fridge for a week prior. I highly, highly recommend Wholesale Flower Market on their own and especially in comparison with others in the area.
I had some negative interactions with florists who did not respond to emails or acted brash and dictated to me what my vision was for our wedding. I was ready to give up and go to Sam's Club, so visiting here was a last resort. Do not make this place your last resort; you won't regret it.

Emily and her team are nothing short of awesome. She took the time to listen to our clients' needs, work up a super detailed proposal, and came in under budget! From the first phone call to pick up, Emily is just fantastic.
