I decided to use Richelle for our wedding after looking through her photos of other events b/c everything looked beautiful and just what we were looking for. The one thing I was not worried about that day was the flowers but unfortunately that was the only thing that went wrong. I was not the bride that had unrealistic expectations or went crazy over things but for the money that you're spending I was extremely disappointed. The boys boutenieres fell off b/c she used a huge single rose instead of 2 small ones of which were noted in the contract. We were able to finally get one on the groom for photos but the rest of the groomsmen had to go w/out. I also specifically went over the color of flowers that I wanted (pink) b/c I didn't want peach/coral ones and she assured me that pink was her favorite color and not to worry and still the flowers for the bridesmaids were coral pink which I specifically said please don't use peach colored flowers. The center pieces were the most disappointing and nothing like her picture in the book and come to find out she sent her assitant to do them b/c she booked another wedding and as she mentioned when I confronted her about the half executed centerpieces that money was tight and the other wedding was needed. I don't mind that she had another event but make sure that the people representing your work know how to execute it especially since it was your picture of what we were doing not something I dreamed up in my head that you were trying to produce. I was embarrassed that our guests would think I purposefully picked the flowers out b/c everything looked that bad and slightly dead. We rec'd a nominal reimbursement but I feel bad b/c my mother in law spent a lot of money on something that turned out to be the worst part of our wedding. I would not recommend her for another event unfortunately and I never thought I would say that considering I had such a pleasant experience w/ her prior to the wedding.
