My daughter used Pedestals for her May 26th wedding. In the photos I posted, the photo on the left is her trial day where Pedestals set up a table to show what her wedding tables would look like, and on the right is what they set up at the wedding. When she got home from her honeymoon, she sent Pedestals these photos and asked for a half price refund of only the cost of the centerpieces, not even the whole order. They refused. They first offered $20 a table, then offered her $40 a table (out of $150), and when she accepted that amount they sent a release form that she had to sign saying she wouldn't leave any negative reviews and neither would her friends and family. She chose not to accept their money, and instead to leave honest reviews. They are using an email to me (not the bride or their actual client) where I responded to them and said the wedding was beautiful and thanked them, as evidence that my daughter was happy. I am not the client, and was unaware at the time of the discrepancies my daughter had noticed. They not only improperly set up the tables, they have now damaged this post wedding time for our family. The photos speak for themselves, and if they don't want their work published online they shouldn't have delivered them in that condition. BEWARE!! We exclusively worked with NADIA from the beginning! Nadia did NOT come to the venue and seemed completely unaware of the finished product that was delivered until she received the photos from my daughter. Phil, the owner, emailed my daughter (the Bride) late at night, threatening legal action for her reviews. Choosing Pedestals has upset my daughter so much, that she has notified her photographer and videographer that she doesn't want to see her tables in any photos or videos moving forward. In my opinion, Run don't walk AWAY from Pedestals.

OMG!!! My daughter's wedding was on 07/27/2013 in Tom O'Shanter Country Club in Brookville and I have to say that the flowers from Pedestal Florist were the most amazing creations I have ever seen. Everybody keep talking about them and I couldn't keep my eyes off them the whole evening. The Chuppah was the most beautiful Chuppah in the world and I am the most grateful to Robert for making our dreams come true. He has an amazing taste and manners and I can't thank him and his crew for doing the most professional job. They truly went above and beyond what I expected. The best florists around!!!!!!! I just take my hat off for what they did for us!!!! I wish I had one more daughter to marry off so I can use them again...:) Thank you Robert and everyone else who took part in making our hall the most beautiful fairy tale place in the world!

Christopher Michael designed the flowers by my Mom’s 90th birthday luncheon, and they were sensational! According to my mother (who is notoriously picky), “Now, THOSES are beautiful flowers…” They were just perfect and we loved the scattered rose petals that were sprinkled around all of the centerpieces; they added softness to the dark furniture at The Carltun, and looked just lovely. An aunt who took one of the arrangements home commented on the gorgeous smell of the roses the next day, and how long they lived.

Christopher and the crew at Pedestals were part of making the day very special for us

I got married this past June at the Westmount Country Club. I was recommended to Robert Herzog from two of my friends whose weddings I had attended as a guest. Both weddings were very beautiful, but not really my taste. When I first went to meet Robert I had a vision in my head of what I wanted. After speaking with him, he gave me some of his own ideas and completely steered me in a new direction. A few months before my wedding Robert showed me a mock-up of what he designed for me, and also of what I had originally wanted. This really helped me make decisions, since I got to see both of my options in person. On my wedding day, when my bouquets were delivered, I realized I ordered one less bouquet than I needed. I freaked out imagining one of my bridesmaids being without flowers. When I called Robert, he had another bouquet made and sent to us within an hour. In the end my wedding flowers were GORGEOUS!

I had my wedding on June 24th at Jericho Terrace. I booked my flowers with Nadia, and she really made the whole process fun for me. When I first started shopping around for a florist, I had no idea what I wanted. Nadia was extremely patient and provided me with great ideas. I saw 2 samples of my centerpieces before my actual wedding day, because I changed my colors. One was more beautiful than the other. When I walked into my reception room on my wedding day I was completely blown away at how beautiful everything turned out to be. My friends are still talking about the bouquets (especially mine). Thank you Pedestals for making my wedding day even more beautiful than I could have imagined.

I would never recomend this florist to anyone. Please BEWARE, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE FOR YOUR FLOWERS. This company was supposed to arrive at 1:00 to deliver my flowers for a 2:30 wedding. I get a phone call from the delivery man who was not Christoper, who was the consultant I had been working with. He tells me that they cant fit under a bridge and are running an hour late. I told them that my wedding starts at 2:30! He then said he was going to put all of my flowers in a car and drive them over. The company was lying. I work at a restaurant that deals with Pedestals. They have never had a problem getting under a bridge before. Needless to say they arrived at my house at 2:35. We all were waiting outside to get into our limos. The company didn't even apologize for being late. Christopher our consultant was no where to be found. Then, I get to the church very late and the ribbon I wanted on the railing wasn't even on the railing. I paid extra for the ribbon. When I called to complain later on they said oops we forgot because we were running late. So I am walking into the church and I look at my alter flowers. They left a napkin on my flowers. For a good 10 minutes of the ceremony I thought it was a dunkin donuts napkin. But, as I looked closer it said North Ritz Club. I was furious!!!! I paid alot of money for my flowers and was not at all happy with the flowers. Then, later on in our celebration one of my guests came up to me and said the pew flowers popped off. So, In the middle of my ceremony the flowers that were on the pew exploded and went everywhere. Luckily, when we got to the reception all of the flowers centerpieces were gorgeous!! If you would like to see pictures of my church flowers with the napkin on it please do not hesitate to email me. I will be happy to show you what type of business this company runs. HORRIBLE COMPANY PLEASE BEWARE!!!!!!!!
