Parkway Florist

r me in November and I was BLOWN away with how beautiful it was. It was gorgeous and exceeded my expectations in every way! She nailed it! When I got to the church before the ceremony and saw my bouquet I was blown away again! It was exactly what I wanted plus some. The flowers were one of my favorite things from my wedding, they were so beautiful and elegant. Cheryl is truly talented and really takes the time to understand what you want, she is easy to reach and knows what she is talking about! I highly recommend Parkway Florist for wedding flowers!

florist!

ot knowing that entire week.

ak for themselves!

tely beautiful I couldn't thank them enough for what they accomplished for my wedding!!

minute and no other florist could get them for me because of the hurricanes, my florist called and was able to get them shipped and I had them in my hands 4 days before the wedding.

as though it came straight from a magazine. Cheryl was easy to work with and changed anything we wanted up to about 2 weeks before our wedding. She had great insight as to what flowers and colors would work best together, as well as what would be in season and budget friendly. I couldn't recommend them enough!

sed on the time of year and weather that certain purple flowers may not bloom or be in season mid-April. The day of my wedding, Cheryl handpicked lavender and lilacs to add to my bouquet and our arch. I was so pleased that Cheryl really got my vision. I may be biased but I feel that I had the most beautiful bouquet and centerpieces. I got so many compliments on all of the flowers and am so happy I will get to look at them forever in pictures.

great condition. I wasn't entirely sure what kind of arrangements I originally wanted, but Cheryl reviewed my pinterest board during our first meeting and helped bring my vision to life even better than I could have ever imagined. I received endless compliments on my bouquet and the centerpieces throughout the evening. We would recommend her and her team to anyone!

g. The florist was insistent on providing them herself (probably to make a profit on them) so we gave in and let her with her promise we would receive all of the lids. After the wedding, we realized we didn't have the lids so my sister called her to see if she still had them. The florist's response was that she put the lids in a dark bag resembling a garbage bag so she could see why someone might've thrown them away. In addition, she used 2 different size mason jars and we agreed on one size. She also used coral and gold ribbon on the jar and our wedding colors were coral and grey. All of this leads me to believe she just used materials she already had available and didn't customize the centerpieces the way I had hoped. Lesson learned - if you want something done a specific way, do it yourself or don't back down (and let a vendor provide materials).

hat was important to me. She asked about the venue, my dress, the bridesmaid/groomsmen attire and our overall "feel" of the wedding. Based on that conversation, she provided some great suggestions for what would look great, fit well with our ceremony and reception, and help us to stay within our budget. We wound up needing a smaller number of centerpieces than initially planned and Cheryl was so wonderful about changing things at the (close to) last minute...working with what we'd already ordered to add to the welcome and guestbook tables. She is a true professional and a wonderful person, to boot! I highly recommend Parkway Florists to anyone who asks! We received so many compliments on the bouquets and centerpieces and that is completely thanks to Cheryl; I provided very little direction and she exceeded my every expectation! THANK YOU to Cheryl and Parkway Florists for making our wedding day/night such a beautiful one.

on my wish list, and the final product was even better than anything I could've asked for. From the wedding party flowers, to the church arrangements and reception centerpieces, everything was picture perfect. Not only that, but Cheryl was great to work with. She makes every bride a priority, and is the kindest woman you'll ever meet. If you're a bride-to-be, I wouldn't look any further than Parkway Florist!

ce we were receiving. We had a limited budget for flowers and wanted something rather simple but elegant. As we weren't having a big evening wedding, we felt this was appropriate. Most florists scoffed at our idea of using a couple bud vases on the tables, but Cheryl loved the idea, even expanding upon it and coming up with a budget for each bud vase (she even suggested we use the venue's bud vases to save on cost). She perfectly captured my vision for bridal and bridesmaid bouquets, and we received a million compliments on them throughout the day. Cheryl even recommended reusing the bridesmaid bouquets as arrangements around the reception space, which worked beautifully. I could have sworn the bouquets should have cost twice what they did, but Cheryl found ways to save on cost but not on style. All the arrangements were gorgeous and incredibly fragrant - the bridal bouquet remained fragrant and colorful over a week after the wedding! I'd definitely recommend Parkway Florist to any bride. The flowers just made the day extra special.

g I found that the Matron of Honor's flowers looked identical to the bridesmaids flowers, the bridesmaids flowers were supposed to be all white and they arrived with yellow flowers and greenery. The contract even noted that I did not want any greens in any of my flowers. All of my flowers had greenery in them. When I called that morning to complain, Cheryl didn't seem very sympathetic and only said that they were making the flowers late the night before. She had a bit of an attitude as well. She should have checked her order and called me if she was going to be unable to provide the flowers as requested. She did offer a small refund but only on the matron of honors flowers. Very disappointed as Parkway Florist came recommended from a friend.

bouquets were huge and definitely held some weight. While taking pictures, we ran into a couple other wedding parties and our bouquets were the biggest by far.

s well as bouquet, flower for bridesmaids, groomsmen and anyone in the wedding party. I just loved how our flowers turned out, just beautiful work. And my bouquet was everything I had asked her to be. Cheryl is super sweet and nice and the flower arrangements were just beautiful, I recommend using Parkway florist.

m my bouquet from the center pieces at the reception. They were very pretty and elegant. Exactly what I was looking for. I felt that I got a great price for everything I ended up getting and would book them in the future if I ever need them.

owner, was so sweet and very easy to work with. My flowers turned out beautifully, I was very pleased with everything.

nd out all the details. It was so nice to have one less thing to have to deal with! My flowers were beautiful! I was very pleased and would definitely recommend Parkway Florist!

a vague idea of what I wanted for my bouquet and for my family's boutinierres (sp?) and corsages. As the wedding neared, I began to worry that I hadn't picked out something more specific. I even had a dream the night before the wedding that the flowers were not going to be dropped off. But when the flowers arrived with plenty of time before the ceremony, I couldn't have been happier! My bouquet was absolutely perfect! I wouldn't put it down. I carried it everywhere for 2 days. My husband's boutinierre was perfect as well. She completely captured the color and look we were going for. I would recommend Parkway Florist without any hesitations!

ny flowers that weren't in season. She really understood the spring and romantic vibe I was going for and they turned out so gorgeous. I loved my cascade bouquets and my maids were lovely as well. My centerpieces far exceeded my expectations! They were amazing! I will definitely recommend The Parway Florist to others and use them in the future for my flower needs!

he came to the ceremony and made sure the guys were pinned with their flowers and that we all got down the aisle in the correct order and at the right time. She also did our centerpieces that turned out great! I would definitely recommend Cheryl and the Parkway Florist team!

they provided and the prices. I worked directly with Cheryl Bakin to chose the various arrangements for bouquets, corsages, etc. She was very kind, organized, reliable, and easy to work with. The flowers turned out even better than I expected, the colors came together better than I imagined, and overall I could not be happier with the way everything turned out. She was even very flexible and accommodating with several last minute changes I requested just a couple weeks before the wedding. Highly recommend!!

with Cheryl while she detailed my daughter’s selections and her recommendations IN WRITING resulted in us providing her with a $500 deposit for a wedding date more than a year away. We ordered bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, altar arrangements and flowers for the cake and felt that we would be in good hands. Two weeks before the 9/15 wedding, we sat down with Cheryl to review and make changes to the initial estimate. This included an additional bouquet, boutonniere, centerpiece, one altar arrangement instead of two and a picture of how Meghan would like the flowers to be arranged on her cake, provided by the bakery. We wrote a check for the balance (more than the original quote) and went on our way. I should add at this point that Meghan’s wedding colors were bright pink, bright yellow and orange and the flowers were to be gerber daisies with black centers. Her bouquet was to include Kermit mums. The altar arrangement was to be “bright, happy colors” as Cheryl wrote it. And the flowers for the cake were to compliment the design she had chosen. The wedding day arrived and one of the first things that Meghan noticed was that there were no Kermit mums in her bouquet. However, that was nothing in comparison to the realization that the altar arrangements (two instead of one large one) were pastel purple and pastel yellow and looked like leftovers from a funeral. It looked awful and to be honest, I thought that there had been a mix-up. They looked that bad and the pictures bear that out—there was NOTHING that matched about them. When we got to the reception, we also realized that the cake flowers looked like a five year old had stuck them randomly in the icing. The pictures show that as well. So, in spite of incredible disappointment, my daughter called Cheryl to give her a chance to explain. Instead of apologizing, Cheryl was defensive and rude. She said she didn’t like where we wanted the flowers placed on the altar and that they were so far away from where the ceremony was taking place that no one would notice anyway! She also said that the Kermit mums’ stems were too short for the bouquet. And then she blamed the bakery for not giving her enough time at the reception hall to place the flowers. She then proceeded to say that we had too many changes to our order. Words cannot express how disappointed we are. My daughter’s beautiful wedding pictures will forever feature something we paid for in good faith but did not receive. Stay away. Go to another florist. Give your money to a business who will provide what they’ve promised.

I do though appreciate that she was honest with her opinion in case I didn't like it. She was very flexible with changing the time and location of my flower drop off, and she personally dropped my flowers off. Actually, I got married 19 days ago, and my bouquet is still in my refrigerator, and still looks relatively good! I could not have been any more happier with my wedding flowers!!

er, the alstrameria boutineres the groomsmen wore had fallen apart and they were left with ferns pinned to their lapels. I don't know, though, if that was the flowers, the humidity, or the jackets coming on and off because of the heat. Everything else stayed fresh and beautiful!

as of flowers i wanted. the rosemary smelled so good. It meant so much to me that they were able to tie in the Blue thistle into my flowers b/c it held such sentimental meaning to me.

wanted.

ul but her other staff was not as nice on the phone. i

she worked with us to upgrade them at an affordable cost. We also decided to have her create the arrangements for the church. On the day of our wedding, I can honestly say I was stunned by how beautiful the flowers in the church, bouquets, and reception were. She did a remarkable job, and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, knowledgable florist.

pieces were simple, but they were very beautiful and were exactly as I had imagined. We were able to keep the vases afterwards and were able to give away the centerpieces. I was pleased with the way things turned out.

lors (Fuchsia and Orange) and my fiancé didn't want roses so we were able to pick other flowers that would look nice.She was very easy to get a hold of to answer any and all of my questions! The week of the wedding I was stressing out because my photographer asked if I could make sure I had flowers with me at the hotel for pictures, but after talking to Cheryl it would be in my best interest to wait until I got to the church to receive my flowers! I was so upset because I wanted flowers that Parkway Florist made a special arraignment to deliver a small bouquet to me at the hotel so I could have something in my photos. I recommend her 100% and she also serves as a ceremony coordinator! She will get everyone ready and down the aisle at your ceremony site! She was awesome, we started on time, everyone had their flowers and looked great! She helped me get ready to go down the asile with my dad and even fluffed my train!
