    Sadly you are not "Goodenough" at all and I found out the hard way. Dealing with you was the…read moresingle most stressful thing about my entire wedding! In the run up to the wedding you didn't return a single call or email when you said they would, kept promising to send details (which you didn't), kept promising to confirm prices (which you didn't until 2 weeks beforehand despite regular chasing!) and doubled the price you'd originally quoted for my table decorations 3 weeks before the wedding for no apparent reason. I would willingly have forgiven you all of that if I'd been happy with the flowers on the day; all I wanted from you was what I'd ordered! Given the problems I'd had in the run up to the wedding, on the morning of my wedding I genuinely had no idea whether or not any flowers would actually appear. When they turned up I almost wished they hadn't. The decorations for the ceremony room looked as though they'd been made by a two year old, we were due to move them from our ceremony room into our reception area but they were so awful we didn't bother. My bouquets were completely different to what we'd discussed beforehand - the actual arrangements were fine but the colours we'd asked for didn't materialise at all! The absolute final straw was finding that for some reason you had decided to put a completely different arrangement for the top table to what had been agreed and ordered, without ever mentioning it! I have no idea why you did that but I was devastated when I saw my top table, and I then had to look at the arrangement I hadn't wanted for the rest of the day as it was too late to change it. I just wish I'd gone with my gut instinct a few weeks beforehand and just forfeited the deposit and found another florist. Nothing anyone can do will ever undo how devastated and disappointed I was with what you produced. I only hope that this message may spare someone else that experience, I wouldn't wish it on anyone on their wedding day :(

    Probably one of the best florists around, good value for money, great arrangements. Would highly…read morerecommend.

    Well how can I give them 7 stars. This is how it all started, it was the day before Valentines, I…read morelive over 5,000 miles away, I wanted something special. Sure I could go to interflora and pick from a menu of pictures like a cheap Chinese restaurant or I could enlist the help of a local florist with local knowledge and the design skills to build something out of this world. Knowing that the time zone difference was going to be a problem, it was going to have to be arranged by e-mail. There would be no pictures to look it, it would be a one off. Could it be done? My requirements were simple, I wanted something special, not a dozen red roses. I wanted lots of different colors, lots of different textures, an amazing aroma, and still for it to still shout "Happy Valentines, will you be mine, because no-one could adore you more" all over it. I also wanted different life expectancies on the flowers so that didn't all die at once. Geraldine e-mailed me back confirming my budget and a list of different flowers, foliage, their purpose and how they would meet my requirements. I said it sounded great and she let me know that I would need to pay before the flowers left the store and wording for a card. While in my office the afternoon of the 13th I realized that I had forgotten to pay and needed to do it over the phone before it was too late in the UK. I called, it was 11:30pm in the UK. Geraldine was still at her shop exhausted but professional. Took my payment, got me a vase I threw in as a request at the last minute, I e-mailed her the wording for the card and I waited in anticipation. Well, lets just say the results were amazing. Such a beautiful display and such attention to detail with hidden love hearts within the foliage, lots of special touches, enough roses to show but not overdo it. From what I hear everyone else was jealous and everyone who has seen them raves about them. I have seen pictures and I'm amazed, so much so that I am creating the first entry on Yelp for Geraldine as this is a talent to be used. Thinking back to Interflora, they serve a purpose but I felt that doing this was like having my own personal chef instead of ordering the number 6 meal at McDonalds. You know where all my flowers are coming from from now onwards.

    I received the most amazing display of flowers that definitely said "Happy Valentines, will you be…read moremine, because no-one could adore you more". When they were delivered, the gentleman who delivered them gave me instructions on how to look after them and even how to transport them in my car as they were delivered to work. I admit I wasn't listening very attentively as I was so in awe of the display. Thankfully I remembered the bit about using the seatbelt and there were instructions with the card on where to top up the water. A week after I received them, I could still smell the aroma of the flowers when I entered the room. I felt very special receiving the flowers, the attention to detail was amazing. Thank you to my boyfriend for arranging something so special, but also a big thank you to the florist for making his requests exactly as he wished.
