Callarae's Floral Events

me; however, the real reason was because she had me scheduled for the wrong date and time despite the date on the contact. Flowers were not as they were supposed to be according to the detailed document that I spent hours going over with her prior to the wedding. The maid of honors bouquet was to be totally different from the bridesmaids; however, they were all the same. The boutineers for the groomsmen and the groom were not as they should have been per the document. Even the centerpieces for the reception were not as she promised they would be. Highly disappointed!

tly she was the one to bring our vision to life. We already had a lot of factors working against us - Beauty and the Beast was coming out in theaters and we knew a lot of people would be critical that the wedding didn’t look like the animated version, there were not a lot of Beauty and the Beast wedding ideas online for inspiration, and we had to work remotely with all of our vendors. With Phyllis, you would have never known we were 3 hours apart. She consistently called and texted with us when necessary and made communication her top priority. The week of our wedding Hurricane Irma hit Florida. Phyllis was terrified our flowers weren’t going to survive if the power went out or even make it to Orlando at all (they were coming from Miami). She told us not to worry, we had to worry about our safety first and traveling up to Orlando from South Florida once the hurricane had passed. Lo and behold, (we found out after the wedding), she went and purchased a generator specifically for our flowers, blacked out all of her windows in the shop to keep the temperature down, and hired security to protect the shop from someone breaking in and trying to steal the generator. She put our wedding and flowers ahead of her personal life all so our wedding day would be perfect. It would have been much easier and less stressful to refund our order or blame the hurricane for things going wrong. We have NEVER worked with a vendor that cares as deeply as Phyllis and she will do anything to make sure your event goes as smoothly as possible. She treats your event as her event and makes it her number one priority. She is the one you want to be working alongside you to be your advocate and make sure your event looks perfect.

together and labeled so we could keep it organized. She is so welcoming and helpful and the bouquets are BEAUTIFUL!!! Thank you

ed her honest opinion about the price range of the flowers, provided tips on what will be in season, and even suggested alternative flower selections to achieve the look that I wanted while helping me stay within my budget. On the day of, Phyllis arrived on time with assistance to help with the room flip. It was not an easy task, but she made it happen – even when the venue threw a couple of curve balls by not having the right count of tables that I requested. I got so many complements on my wedding and how the beautiful the tables were, which was largely due to Callaraes Floral Events.
