Pedestals Floral Decorators - Wedding & Event Florist of Long Island, NYC, NJ — Local services in Town of North Hempstead

1 name. Joseph Campbell. That's who you need to ask for. This artistic genius brought my vision, and then some, to life. I was planning my 40th birthday party and the theme was Moulin Rouge. When I went there for my mock set up appointment, I didn't know what to expect. I told him I wanted the room to be sexy, burlesque, over the top but without being Gordy or tacky. He had gorgeous linens there to complete the look of these sexy jet black polished candelabras draped in flowers and dripping crystals everywhere with fluted candles and table fillers- it was jaw dropping. We did long banquet tables , or kings tables, whatever you want to call them (they're the hottest thing right now. He of course, asked me my budget- I told him to give me everything he thought (which I called my wish list) and then I told him we can always filter if it's too much. It wasn't just flowers. They hung these chandeliers made out of flowers and crystals from the ceiling, they put these huge arrangements in a cage made out of diamond looking crystals and placed the on tall black column like pedalstals. They built this harem type canopy made from red chiffon and which was where my cake was going to be placed. Of course, I ended up getting everything he suggested because I loved it so much. And we negotiated a price that was fair. But he was at the venue, which was in Jersey, all day making sure everything was perfect. The linens, which we had gotten through his contact was red satin with Black lace overlay. The room was insane! The owners of the Westmount Country Club kept bringing in their friends, showing off how spectacular everything was. The linens, I ended up getting from 2 different vendors, only because I was pressed for time. The one Vendor, Finishing Touch linens in Hicksville , did the long, 24ft banquet tables. I had 2 of those tables and she was extremely expensive. If you haven't already been able to tell, this party was costing me a lot money so being cheap was the furthest thing on my mind. But this woman was really astronomical. She charged for 495 per table and that's for a rental!, plus an additional $300 for delivery . I only had two long banquet tables, the others were all round. For the round, we did black sparkly sequence which I ended up getting from a vendor in Jersey called Rent4parties. Finishing Touch was charging $85 per Rental per black sequence round linen, while Rent 4 Parties was only charging $25 . They looked the same exact to me! I could've gotten the banquet tables from Rent4Parties also if I had more time. They didn't have them in stock and it was something that needed to be ordered Thank you, Joseph, for your artistic design. And Thank you Phil (and Shannon 😉) for coming down in price! You guys rock and I will definitely be using you for my...

To say we were blown away by Pedestals Florist in Garden City is an understatement. ABSOLUTE BEST EXPERIENCE FOR OUR DAUGHTER’S WEDDING FLORIST! We used Robert who is a true artist and made it seem seamless to make her dream vision come to life. Every single step in the process was beyond what we could have imagined.

You have no idea of how much it matters to go through a florist with this level of experience and expertise until something goes wrong. And we found out first hand about the importance of this truth. Our venue told the florist the ceremony was to be in a different room with the ceiling height much less than that of ballroom. This could have been a major issue but even finding this out the day before wedding…Robert and his production team made all adjustments to perfection. Their calmness, confidence, and control of situation had us truly knowing we were in such good hands. EVERY SINGLE DETAIL AND ARTISTRY CAME TOGETHER IN A MOST SPECTACULAR AND BEAUTIFUL WAY. As an artist myself, I was able to appreciate the use of all elements of design used to create three variations of displays that when put together were masterpieces of art. The way candles were added and displayed were so eloquently positioned. The flowers used were so fresh and gorgeous that it made such a statement in the lucite chutpah and in ballroom. It was insanely perfect and ALL done in such artistry and in fine taste.

ALWAYS know that you get what you pay for. If you want the BEST and want to have one less thing to have even one worry about…Pedastals should be your choice for a wedding florist. When you use a florist that cares as much as you do and service that matches your work ethic and vision…THIS IS IT. Pedestals put my daughter on a pedestal and treated her as though she was about to have a royal wedding. And guess what? They actually accomplished exactly that. I am sooooooo grateful that we hired Pedestals Florist for this meaningful life event. 100% amazed by...

I hired Pedestals for my wedding this past August. I'll start by saying, the flowers were beautiful, and even in the pictures they turned out gorgeous. Walking into the ballroom filled with flowers was an amazing feeling I'll remember forever.

I was unhappy upon receiving my bridal bouquet the morning of and I called Pedestals who immediately responded and try to fix the situation right away. My issues were 1- the flowers did not fit the image of what I wanted, and 2- it was indistinguishable from the MOH bouquet (weird). They nicely sent a back up bouquet right away but explained that my vision was not possible because the flowers would fall out of the holder. I was definitely frustrated that it was not communicated in any of my appointments that my vision was not possible, and even went as far as to having my inspiration picture included within my signed contract.

The second bouquet that showed up and was still not like my vision. I relayed to Pedestals it was nice they sent a back up but it still wasn't what I wanted. I was gaslighted and told to "hold it sideways" to fit my vision.

I was losing flowers throughout the day- even my photographer mentioned they were unfortunate.

The staircase of flowers did not fit my vision, and we did have poor communication regarding the kings table. We were told we'd receive pricing for the addition of the kings table to our contract prior to the event but only learned of the exact pricing the week of the wedding and unfortunately thousands of dollars onto our contract. If we had more time, we would have given the kings table a second-thought, but I take responsibility for not pushing them for pricing sooner.

Again, the flowers were all beautiful- but I do wish there was a clearer line of communication.

Pictures on this review was the inspiration photo (that I shared with pedestals and was included on my contract)...
