Please read this for you to understand why you shouldn’t use this company! We thought we picked a good company hiring Christie Turner Flower Designs (Dana and Chelsea) as florists... for my daughter’s wedding, but ends up we picked a truly unprofessional and unethical florist! We planned for a classy and elegant wedding, paying them $32,773 for premium, fresh flowers. The day of the wedding to our dismay, the flowers on the arrangements were FAKE/SILK with some fresh roses and some fresh baby’s breath!
Numerous breaches of contract and failures from Christie Turner floral designs occurred; unfulfilling the terms of our agreement. First, they used mainly artificial silk flowers without our prior knowledge or consent in lieu of the agreed-upon contract for premium, fresh floral arrangements! Only some roses and some babys breath were fresh! Some vases had semi dead roses as well! The rest were silk flowers!!! This malicious move on their part significantly compromised the aesthetic appeal and authenticity of my daughter’s wedding. In addition, we requested to keep the floral decorations after the wedding event, which is also an advertised option they offer via FAQ section in their website. This understanding was especially crucial to me since I intended to utilize these decorations and donate the flowers afterwards. To my dismay, they took the majority of the flowers I paid for, (if it wasn’t for our wedding planner, they would have taken it all), directly going against my wishes to keep them based on our agreement. It’s very clear why they wanted to remove all the flowers and not allow me to keep them that’s because they used so many synthetic/fake/artificial flowers; they wanted to remove the physical evidence of breaching our contract. My wedding planner, lawyer, and myself emailed, texted and mailed a formal letter to them a day after the wedding, detailing many of the aforementioned issues and concerns that arose during the event. Regrettably, to this day, we have not received any response or acknowledgment from them regarding those matters. I have submitted a formal complaint with BBB, and I am in process of submitting legal arbitration on this matter. Not only Christie Turner flower breached our contact, but they had the audacity to continue to profit from us by posting on their website without our authorization a picture and video of my daughter and son-in-law’s wedding! After several warnings from us, they finally removed it from their site. I have never encountered in my life such a dubious company that was selling you and amazing sets of premium, fresh flower arrangements to then unethically provide you fake flowers. Do yourselves a favor and stay away from this business!
