Tessilk & Fresh Flowers

I would NOT recommend Tessilk flowers for your wedding!!! \r \r My wedding is still fresh and I am still very upset, so I'm going to just get straight to the point. We never got a Maid of Honor bouquet (which I designed to stand out from the rest of the brides maids). We never got a tossing bouquet. Our flower girl bouquets were to be small ball-shaped bouquet with a ribbon hanging around it for the girls to hold and we never got those. Instead we just got smaller versions on the bridesmaid's bouquets. The Boutonnieres ALL fell apart after about an hour (give or take a little). The orchids that were to be placed on the napkins at the tables were wilted and brown around the edges. \r \r The most devastating thing is the arch (Chuppah) that we got married under was to be dark brown bamboo (even stated in the contract). We coordinated all the decorations to match the beautiful arch she showed us a picture of. The decorations going down the aisle were made of dark brown bamboo, as well as, the chiavari chairs. To my complete devastation the arch they brought us was a light pine colored bamboo. \r \r On top of that I asked for a sheer organza fabric to be flowing from it (beach wedding). They wrapped the organza around the entire thing to try and hide their mistake. It just made it so much worse... it looked like tool: / It also had Hugh cement blocks at the bottom that they didn't even try to cover. It just looked so tacky. \r \r It was (is) heartbreaking because I put so much time into planning the wedding and all the little details and they completely dropped the ball. The only reason why I gave them one star is because my bouquets as well as the bridesmaid's bouquets were nice. Other than that everything else was a huge disappointment! \r \r A wedding is such a special day for someone and they were just so careless and unorganized! I repeat: DO NOT USE THEM FOR YOUR WEDDING!!!! more

Tess did the flowers for my wedding in 2005 and since then I've used her for all my floral and decorating needs. Her service is superior to all the other florists I've worked with; both personally and for business. Her prices are very reasonable (the least expensive in town) and her arrangements are always BEAUTIFUL! \r \r I recommend her all the time and keep going back to her! Pros: Above and Beyond service more

After reading all of her reviews on Bridal Insider, I decided to give her a call. :) They are a friendly local flower shop, with great attentive and courteous stafff. Tess is the greatest, give her a picture of what you want and she can make it for you. She is extremely creative and works within your budget. One of my favorite vendors that I used for my wedding. Love Tessilk! Pros: Great prices, beautiful flowers, great customer service Cons: None that I know of. more

Tess was my florist for my wedding back in 2001 and I?m so glad to hear that so many of you are as happy with her as I was on my special day. I had over 200 guests and she did all my center pieces, bouquets, boutonnieres and decorated the gazebo where the ceremony was held and decorated the cake & food/beverage tables. She went above and beyond all my expectations. She even made the wedding souvenirs! She set me at ease so much so that I gave her free reign on all design ideas (except for my bouquet of course!). I gave her my colors and said have at it, just do your thing. I didn?t know what I?d be getting until the day of and I was more than pleasantly surprise with what she had created. My wedding was like a magical fairytale wedding. In 2006 my mother in law used her services for my baby shower. She made all the center pieces & souvenirs for 100+ guests and rented us the decorated mommy chair. She also made the souvenirs for my sister?s baby shower in 2006 as well. Last year I went to her for my floral needs for a funeral. She made 2 large, beautiful & tasteful arrangements used as the focal points during the memorial service. Needless to say my entire family goes to her for all of our floral needs, funerals, mother?s day, weddings, showers, valentines the reasons are endless. Go to the Tessilk Flowers shop and you will see why she hasn?t needed to create a website. I believe most of her business is through word of mouth & that kind of advertising is priceless! Pros: Everything! Cons: None! more
