We had our wedding on April 20th, 2017 in Scranton, PA. We chose McCarthy Flowers very far in advance, knowing we wanted a local company who had a great reputation for taking care of all the flowers for our day. I spoke with Brian originally, w...ho was wonderful and set up our initial appointment, as well as asking for pictures and our vision for that day. He set up our appointment with Kathi in the Scranton location and she was my point person from that day on. Kathi sat down personally with us on more than one occasion to make sure our budget needs were met, while also making sure we looked at the photos and ideas of what we wanted. We supplied our own containers, but two days before hand something went wrong with them and we were contacted that all of them were breaking. McCarthy took care of everything - and let us use containers from them at a great price.
When the day came, all of the florals arrived on time and were delivered to the right areas. However, they were not exactly as we planned. We had been very specific in centerpieces that we wanted down to exact pictures of the flowers ( certain ones) and greenery. The flowers were beautiful and ended up working out for us, but initially, I was not as excited as I hoped. My personal bouquet, as well as the bridesmaids, were wonderful. We were also missing two groomsmen roses and had to call for them to be delivered. Luckily, they are local ( a great thing) and they rushed them right over.
We had two large arrangements for the ceremony room, which were beautiful, but did have elements in them (large sticks coming out of the center) which were not part of the plan.
We got so many compliments on all of our arrangements for our wedding, and overall McCarthy was a great company to have for our day. They were kind, very helpful and accommodating. Kathi was quick to respond to all emails and changes and took our budget into account.
I was not stressed at all in the end over the flowers, and they were beautiful. Also, the containers were ours to keep, which we did not know. If we had, we would have told our guests to take them home! We ended up with all of them at the end!
