Has anyone actually used an outside florist @ ROR?


Recommended Posts

I've been in contact with several outside florists, and Kreations Flowers is about $500 less than Tai Flora for what I'm looking for. I read in the flower/photographer thread that Chandlyn said that we could use outside florists, but just wondering if anyone has had success with it? I'm starting to stress and need to make a decision ASAP! Thanks!

I am most likely using Kreations. There is no fee from the RIU to use them. The quoted me a delivery charge of about $35 if I remember correctly. I sent them pictures of the bouquets I wanted and they said they could do it no problem. They are a LOT less expensive. I am currently waiting for them to send me a contract before I send them a deposit.

Yes, I'm so happy to hear that you are using them as well! They were quoting not quite much less for me as well. Same delivery fee.

Did Chandlyn tell you specifically about no fee from RIU? I should probably have it from her in an email just in case...

Makes me so much more relieved!

I'm so glad you're using them! Yes, Chandlyn specifically told me there is no charge. I can forward you her email if you PM your email address, if you want.
Did Kreations send you a contract? Have you paid them any money yet?

I'm worried. I arrive in JA on a Tuesday, but my wedding isn't until that Saturday. Between the transit time of their shipping to my home and then my travel to JA ,will the flowers still be/look fresh? How long do they normally last?
The flowers that I'm getting are being delivered to the RIU on the morning of the wedding, so they will definitely be fresh. Who are you using as your florist?

I'm finding sorting out the budget to be a challenge...

Thanks

I sent a bunch of Jamaican florists pictures of what I wanted and got quotes. Kreations was by far the least expensive. Here is what I'm getting:


Bride's bouquet @ $63.00 - $ 63.00
8 Bridesmaid bouquets each @ $55.00 - $440.00
2 Corsages each @ $8.00 - $ 16.00
Total $519.00
Delivery $32.00
Grand Total $551.00

Here is the pic I sent them:

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
