Peter’s Wholesale Florist

Teddy is the best of the best! My bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres and centerpieces were beyond what i could ever ask for. Quality and arrangement of flowers were stunning. Do not look any further, visit Teddy and he will make it happen!!!

PLEASE TRUST ME WHEN I SAY DO NOT BOOK THIS FLORIST FOR YOUR WEDDING!
I’ve never written a review before but I was so stressed out and disappointed from day 1 with this florist that I felt compelled to type this up. I won’t go into all of the details but mainly Teddy, the owner, is very unprofessional and rude and basically scammed me out of half of the arrangements I thought we were getting on the day of my wedding. He typed up a contract with every single arrangement and charged us for everything and then the day of my wedding I walked into the venue and the entire cocktail hour and lobby was empty! No décor/​flowers! I was devastated, stressed out, and generally pissed off. Like I said I don’t feel like rehashing everything but please just trust me and go with another florist. We booked him because we thought he was a good price for the amount of things we wanted and for the quality but we ended up getting screwed over. So pay a little more money for someone MUCH better!

Teddy did an amazing job on my wedding arrangements and bouquets. He made my wedding venue look elegant! He went above and beyond with setting up the venue and church. I was extremely happy! The process can be a bit challenging but you need to be specific in what you want and trust him! I would recommend him 100%!!

We dealt directly with Teddy, the owner of this establishment, and first ran into problems around payments — he charged us more than we had understood for the deposit, and then began demanding payments without prior notice. This escalated into a situation where we found ourselves considering abandoning the deposit as Teddy was extremely rude to myself, my wife and our day-​of-​coordinator. It was a frustrating experience overall that added unneeded stress to our wedding.

Teddy and the crew at Peter’s Wholesale Florists are great! I found them while decorating a film shooting in the area. Being set in the 70’s, the production had a very specific style and Teddy knew exactally what type of flowers and arrangements were period appropriate. Alongside being able to work within my budget, Peter’s is a wonderful resource for beautiful florals!

My husband and I first met with Teddy to go over what kinds of flowers we wanted, and he drew up a preliminary price list and helped us figure out what flowers we wanted. he was really great to work with, and knew so much about the different types of flowers (including colors and textures that work together, as well as seasonality). The flowers were waiting for me and my bridesmaids when we got to the venue, and they were absolutely gorgeous — I loved my bouquet especially! Thanks for a great experience.

Talk about unprofessional, impatient, immature, and disappointing.
My in-​laws and I were referred to this business by our wedding venue. My mother-​in-​law met with Teddy, the owner, without me and had a nice conversation with him. She decided to meet with him again, this time with me, so I could see his ideas and how he works.
Apparently, Teddy assumed that this second meeting meant that we would be signing a contract and giving him a deposit. My mother-​in-​law made it clear through email that we were still deciding and that this was just an informal meeting so I could be introduced to him. Once Teddy realized our intentions, our meeting immediately went south. He completely snapped and said that he doesn’t normally work on Sundays, but because he thought we were going to give him a deposit, it would be worth it to come in. I found this to be a weak argument, as there was another bride before us who was meeting with him while we were waiting.
He continued on by berating and guilt tripping us, saying, «I don’t know about you, but my family is important to me. I left my daughter at home and I could’ve spent time with her. I work 80 – 100 hours a week and if I were to spend hours at a time with brides [like me, apparently, who likes to take my time before spending thousands of dollars on something] I wouldn’t get anything done.»
Wow. Thanks for basically saying that we’re horrible people who don’t have any family values and don’t respect someone’s time. We just met, buddy.
You would think that in a service industry, one would attempt to work around a client’s schedule and preferences. Teddy also acted very immaturely by saying,“Why WOULDN’T you hire me? I fit your budget, I have all these awards, and I do good work.” Well, you can start by not yelling at us. You’ve been in the business for 35 years. If you do good work, you wouldn’t have to pressure us into signing right this second because you would have a strong pipeline for business and you know you can make ends meet, even if we didn’t hire you. And now that we’ve seen your temper, why would we want to work with you, anyway?
At that point, he made it clear that he didn’t want our business, so we walked away. (He made sure to slam the door behind us so we’d have an inkling as to how much we’ve upset him.) I know there have been happy brides who have patronized this business. Sadly, Peter’s has lost the opportunity for us to feel the same way. Thanks, Peter’s, for making it easier for us to narrow down our list of potential florists for my big day!
